Sedibelo Platinum Holdings Ltd. Successfully Raises Capital Through Debt and Equity Financing to Strengthen Operations and Address Financial Needs.
Sedibelo Platinum Holdings Ltd. has successfully completed a Capital Raise, comprising both debt and equity financing, to bolster its working capital and advance the development of its operations. The company secured a senior secured loan agreement, Facility C, with Orion Blue Crane LLC ('Orion'), Pallinghurst PGM Ltd ('PPGM'), and the Industrial Development Corporation of South Africa ('IDC'). This agreement provides USD Tranche Loans to Pilanesberg Platinum Mines Ltd.
('PPM'), the company's wholly owned operating subsidiary. The IDC, a key shareholder and lender, played a pivotal role in the Capital Raise by converting a portion of its existing secured facility, Facility B, into equity. The remaining principal under Facility B, along with accrued interest, was rolled over into Facility C as a ZAR Tranche loan. The equity portion of the Capital Raise, known as the 'Equity Raise', allowed existing shareholders to subscribe to new ordinary shares. This subscription was subject to South African Reserve Bank approval for South African participants. The 'Equity Raise' proceeds, coupled with the 'Debt Raise', will be utilized to address general working capital requirements and support the progress of the Sedibelo Group's development. Furthermore, participants in the 'Equity Raise' were granted underwriter options to subscribe to additional Company shares at the Subscription Price, equivalent to one option for every share subscribed. This capital injection was crucial for Sedibelo as it amended and restated its Intercreditor Agreement, granting senior ranking to Facility C Lenders. Notably, the Bakgatla Ba Kgafela community (the 'BBK'), the company's largest shareholder, received options (the 'BBK Options') to subscribe for up to a significant number of Company shares at the Subscription Price for a period of two years. The BBK also has the right to receive further options during a second one-year period, contingent on the number of options exercised during the initial year. The Capital Raise, along with other related transactions, qualified as a 'related party transaction' under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ('MI 61-101'). Sedibelo relied on exemptions from the formal valuation requirement and the minority shareholder approval requirement of MI 61-101, citing its financial hardship and the transaction's potential to improve its financial position
