Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - June 2, 2025) - Mogotes Metals Inc. (TSXV: MOG) (FSE: OY4) (OTCQB: MOGMF) ("Mogotes", or the "Company") is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement through the issuance of up to 75,000,000 units (each, a "Unit") at a price of $0.20 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$15,000,000 (the "Offering").
Each Unit shall be comprised of one common share (each, a "Common Share") and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at a price of $0.40 per Common Share for a period of two (2) years from the closing of the Offering.
The gross proceeds from the sale of the Units will be used for funding the Company's exploration work programs and development of the Company's Filo Sur property, and general working capital purposes.
The Company welcomes the participation of the prominent Argentina based Braun family, which, through an associated entity, has subscribed for C$9,000,000 of the Offering, resulting in the family becoming a significant shareholder on completion of the Offering. In connection with the strategic investment Mr. Carlos Braun will join the board of directors of the Company.
For more than 130 years, the Braun family has been synonymous with enterprise and leadership in Argentina. The family is related to one of the founding families of Bunge Global (NYSE: BG), a cornerstone of global agribusiness. This strategic investment was organized through their Geneva-based family office, which manages a diversified portfolio of global investments across agriculture, natural resources, infrastructure, and innovation-driven ventures. Their deep understanding of the South American business environment and longstanding regional networks make them a valuable addition to the Mogotes Metals shareholder base. They also operate one of the largest farming enterprises in Argentina, with a long-standing presence in the country's most productive agricultural regions.
Carlos Braun Saint, representing the Braun family, is a recognized entrepreneur and investor across Latin America. He leads ventures in agriculture and hospitality. His global perspective and multi-generational experience bring meaningful insight to the Company's Board of Directors.
In connection with the Braun family's strategic investment, the Company has entered into an investor rights agreement with a company associated with the Braun family. Under the terms of the investor rights agreement this company has been granted: (i) a pre-emptive right to participate in any equity financing on the same terms as other investors to preserve its existing ownership stake while it holds 5% or more of issued shares of the Company; (ii) a top-up right to purchase additional shares whenever conversions or property-related share issuances dilute its stake by 2% or more; (iii) an additional subscription option, exercisable at any time within five years, to increase its holdings to up to 19.9 % of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company; and (iv) the ongoing ability to nominate one director to the board of directors of the Company, for so long as it holds 5% or more of issued shares of the Company.
