Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 20, 2025) - Cavalry Capital Corp. (TSXV: CVY.P) ("Cavalry" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that further to its press release dated September 10, 2025 it has closed its non-brokered private placement (the "Private Placement") of subscription receipts (each, a "Subscription Receipt") on an oversubscribed basis. Cavalry issued an aggregate of 10,960,468 Subscription Receipts at a price of $0.25 per Subscription Receipt for gross proceeds of $2,740,117. Each Subscription Receipt will, upon satisfaction of certain escrow release conditions, be converted into one unit, each comprised of one post-Consolidation (as defined below) Cavalry common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Cavalry Warrant"). Each Cavalry Warrant will be exercisable for a period of 24 months from the escrow release date of the Subscription Receipts to purchase one post-Consolidation Cavalry common share at an exercise price of $0.35 per share.
Gary Lewis, Executive Director of Advanced Energy Fuels, Inc. said: "We are pleased to announce the successful closing of the Cavalry private placement, with the funds raised to be strategically deployed to support the completion of the pre-feasibility study at the South Woodie Woodie Manganese project in the Pilbara Region of Western Australia. We are grateful for the overwhelming support from our existing shareholders and welcome new investors to the Company".
Brandon Bonifacio, CEO and President of Cavalry Capital Corp. said: "We are extremely pleased with the strong interest shown by existing and new investors and look forward to working with the Advanced Energy team to realize the potential of their exciting critical mineral projects, upon completion of the Transaction".
The proceeds of the Private Placement are being held in escrow by Computershare Trust Company of Canada, as subscription receipt agent pursuant to the terms of a subscription receipt agreement entered into with the Company dated November 20, 2025 (the "Subscription Receipt Agreement"). The escrowed funds shall be released to the Company upon the completion of certain escrow release conditions in connection with the Transaction (as defined below). In the event that the escrow release conditions are not satisfied or waived by December 31, 2025 or such later date as determined in accordance with the Subscription Receipt Agreement or, if prior to such time, the Company advises the subscription receipt agent that it does not intend to, or that it cannot, satisfy the escrow release conditions, then the outstanding Subscription Receipts shall be cancelled and terminated and the escrowed funds shall be returned to the subscribers of the Subscription Receipts.
In connection with the Private Placement, the Company has agreed to pay aggregate cash finder's fees of $102,275 and grant an aggregate of 409,100 non-transferable finder warrants of the Company (each, a "Finder Warrant") to arm's length finders of the Company. Each Finder Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one post-Consolidation common share of Cavalry at an exercise price of $0.35 per share, for a period of 24 months from the escrow release date of the Subscription Receipts. A total of $30,875 of the cash finder's fee were paid and 123,500 Finder Warrants were issued on closing of the Private Placement, with the remainder to be settled upon the escrow release date of the Subscription Receipts.
The securities issued in connection with the Private Placement are subject to a four-month hold period expiring on March 21, 2026 in accordance with applicable securities laws and the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV").
The completion of the Private Placement was a condition to the closing of its business combination with Advanced Energy Fuels, Inc. ("Advanced Energy"), as previously announced by Cavalry on May 16, 2025 and July 29, 2025 (the "Transaction"). Cavalry and Advanced Energy intend to use the proceeds of the Private Placement to advance the South Woodie Woodie Manganese Project located in the Pilbara Region of Western Australia (the "SWWM Project"), with the intention of advancing a pre-feasibility study on the SWWM Project. In connection with the Transaction, Cavalry will complete a consolidation of its outstanding share capital (the "Consolidation") on the basis of 1.66 pre-Consolidation Cavalry common shares for each post-Consolidation Cavalry common share, and the subscribers of the Private Placement will receive post-Consolidation securities of Cavalry upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts. The Transaction is intended to constitute the "Qualifying Transaction" of Cavalry, as such a term is defined in Policy 2.4 - Capital Pool Companies of the TSXV. The Transaction, the Consolidation and the Private Placement are subject to the approval of the TSXV. For further information on the Transaction, see the Company's press release dated July 29, 2025.
