December 15, 2020 – Vancouver, BC: Elemental Royalties Corp. (“Elemental” or “the Company”) (TSX-V: ELE, OTCQX: ELEMF), a gold-focused royalty company providing investors with exposure to a growing portfolio of royalties, is pleased to announce that it has completed its private placement offering (the “Offering”) of 10,748,132 subscription receipts (each, a “Subscription Receipt” and collectively, the “Subscription Receipts”) at a price of $1.50 per Subscription Receipt (the “Offering”) for approximately $16.1 million in aggregate gross proceeds under the Offering. Canaccord Genuity Corp. (the “Lead Underwriter”) acted as lead underwriter for the Offering, on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters including Haywood Securities Inc., Scotia Capital Inc. and Sprott Capital Partners LP (together with the Lead Underwriter, the “Underwriters”). The Offering was completed in connection with the proposed Acquisition (as defined below), as further described in the Company’s press release dated November 23, 2020.

Each Subscription Receipt entitles the holder thereof to receive one common share (a “Common Share”) of Elemental, without any further action on the part of the holder and without payment of additional consideration, upon satisfaction of the escrow release conditions included in the subscription receipt agreement entered into among Elemental, Computershare Trust Company of Canada (the “Escrow Agent”), and the Lead Underwriter in connection with the Offering (the “Subscription Receipt Agreement”), including, but not limited to, the satisfaction of all conditions precedent to Elemental completing the gold royalty portfolio acquisition from South32 Limited (the “Acquisition”).

In consideration of the services rendered by the Underwriters in connection with the Offering, the Underwriters will receive from Elemental a cash commission (the “Underwriters’ Fee”) equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds, excluding sales of Subscription Receipts to certain purchasers on a president’s list (the “President’s List”), in which case a cash commission of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the President’s List purchasers will be paid to the Underwriters.

Pursuant to the Subscription Receipt Agreement, the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering, less 50% of the Underwriters’ Fee and certain expenses of the Offering, are being held in escrow by the Escrow Agent. The aggregate net proceeds of the Offering and the remaining 50% of the Underwriters’ Fee will be released from escrow upon closing of the Acquisition.

Pursuant to the Subscription Receipt Agreement, in the event that the Acquisition is not completed within four months of the closing of the Offering, the Escrow Agent shall return to the holders of the Subscription Receipts an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price paid for the Subscription Receipts held by each holder, and each Subscription Receipt shall be cancelled and be of no further force or effect.

The net proceeds of the Offering will be used to fund part of the cash portion of the consideration payable in connection with the Acquisition.

The Offering and the Acquisition remain subject to customary regulatory and stock exchange approvals, including final approval of the TSX-V.

Insiders of the Company subscribed for a total amount of 440,432 Subscription Receipts under the Offering. Participation by these insiders constitutes a related party transaction as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The issuance of the Subscription Receipts to the related parties is exempt from the formal valuation requirements of Section 5.4 of MI 61-101 pursuant to Subsection 5.5(b) of MI 61-101 and exempt from the minority shareholder approval requirements of Section 5.6 of MI 61-101 pursuant to Subsection 5.7(b) of MI 61-101. The Company did not file a material change report 21 days prior to the closing of the Offering as the details of the participation of these insiders of the Company had not been confirmed at that time.

Not for distribution to U.S. news wire services or for dissemination in the United States.

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities in the United States.
