Kincora Copper Limited (ASX & TSXV: KCC, Kincora or the Company) has closed its recently announced placement for A$2 million via the issuance of 40.6 million new CDIs at A$0.05 per share (C$0.045), representing a 25.4% and 21% discount respectively to the last closing price and 15-day VWAP of the Company's CDI's on the ASX prior to the Company CDIs being placed in a trading halt on July 27, 2023 ("Brokered Placement"). The Brokered Placement was oversubscribed and includes a one (1) for two (2) free-attaching option exercisable at A$0.075 (C$0.065) and expiring 24-months from the issue ("Attaching Options").

The proceeds from the placement will be used to continue ongoing drilling efforts across the NSW project portfolio, support corporate development initiatives and for general working capital purposes.

The CDI's issued under the Brokered Placement have been issued within existing capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1/a and are subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval (conditional approval in place). The Attaching Options and Broker Options are subject to shareholder approval at the AGM to be convened in September.

Morgans Corporate Ltd and Bridge Street Capital Partners Pty Ltd have acted as Joint Lead Managers. Associated with the raising 7.5 million unquoted options will be issued at an exercise price of $0.075 and expiring 24-months from the issue ("Broker Options") and a 5% cash fee was paid on funds raised. The Broker Options will be issued subject to shareholder approval to be sought at the AGM referred to above.

The participation by BBH in the private placement is a related party transaction under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101") and TSXV Policy 5.9. The Company is relying upon the exemption from the valuation requirement for related party transactions provided in section 5.5(a) of MI 61-101, and the exemption from the requirement to obtain shareholder approval in respect of the participation by BBH provided in section 5.7(1) (a) of MI 61-101 on the basis that the fair market value of the related party participation was less than 25% of the Company's market capitalization, calculated in accordance with MI 61-101.
