Cadillac provides update to its $7.0 million private placement financing

Cadillac Ventures Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CDC) (“Cadillac” or the “Company“) announces an amendment to its brokered private placement financing announced on October 26, 2011. In addition to offering units (“Units“) at a price of $0.21 per Unit, the Company will also offer flow-through units (“FT Units“) at a price of $0.23 per FT Unit (as opposed to flow-through shares only as was announced on October 26, 2011) for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $7.0 million in any combination of Units and FT Units. A syndicate of agents led by NCP Northland Capital Partners Inc. and including Stifel Nicolaus Canada Inc. and Secutor Capital Management Corporation (the “Agents“) will continue to act as agents for the financing.

As previously announced, each Unit will consist of one common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant (a “Warrant“) will entitle the holder to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of $0.35 for a period of 24 months following closing.

Each FT Unit will consist of one common share to be issued on a “flow-through” basis and one-half of one Warrant. Each whole Warrant forming part of the FT Units will be exercisable on the same terms as the Warrant forming part of the Units.

As previously announced, the Agents have the option, exercisable up to 48 hours before closing of the Offering to increase the proceeds raised in the Offering by up to 15% in any combination of Units or FT Units at their respective issue price (the “Agents’ Option“).

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Units towards a Preliminary Economic Assessment on the Thierry Property by early 2012, for development of the Company’s properties and for working capital purposes. The gross proceeds from the sale of the FT Units will be used for Canadian Exploration Expenses on the Company’s Thierry Property in Ontario.

The Offering is being made by the Agents on a reasonable efforts basis and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals. The offering is expected to close later this month. All securities to be issued under the offering will be subject to a four-month statutory hold period in Canada.

Pursuant to an agreement between the Company and Urion Mining International B.V. (“Urion“), Urion, an existing shareholder of the Company holding, directly and indirectly, approximately 25% of Cadillac’s issued and outstanding common shares, has the right to maintain its percentage equity interest in Cadillac. It is anticipated that Urion will subscribe for that number of Units equal to approximately 25% of the number of Units and FT Units issued under the offering (including the exercise of the Agents’ Option, if any). Pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101“), the issuance of Units to Urion will constitute a “related party transaction”. The Company is exempt from obtaining both a formal valuation and minority shareholder approval in connection with the private placement to Urion because neither the fair market value of the common shares and warrants to be issued to Urion under the Offering, nor the consideration for such securities, exceeds 25% of the Company’s market capitalization as calculated in accordance with MI 61-101.

Assuming maximum participation under the Offering and the exercise of the Agents’ Option, and also assuming that only Units are issued and no FT Units are issued under the Offering, a maximum aggregate of 38,333,333 Units would be issued under the Offering.
