Medallion Arranges $2 Million Private Placement with Jordan Capital Markets


    TSX.V:MDL

    VANCOUVER, Feb. 27 /CNW/ - Medallion Resources Ltd ("Medallion" or the
"Company" - TSX.V: MDL) announces that it has arranged a brokered private
placement of up to $2,000,010 of flow-through and non-flow through units at
$0.15 per unit through the issuance of up to 6,666,700 Flow Through Units ("FT
Units") and 6,666,700 Non-Flow Through Units ("Non-FT Units") (the
"Offering"). Medallion has engaged Jordan Capital Markets Inc. ("Jordan") to
act as sole and exclusive agent for the offering on a commercially
reasonable-efforts basis.
    Each FT Unit will consist of one common share and one-half of one
transferable common share purchase warrant ("FT Warrant"). Each whole FT
Warrant shall be exercisable to acquire one common share at a price of $0.25
for the period of 36 months from closing of the Offering ("Closing Date"). The
Company may give written notice to Jordan and the holders of the FT Warrants
that the expiry date of the FT Warrants has been shortened to the date that is
30 days after the date of such notice if the closing price of the Company's
common shares is equal to or greater than $0.50 per share for 20 consecutive
trading days any time following four months from closing.
    Each Non-FT Unit will consist of one common share and one transferable
common share purchase warrant ("Warrant"). Each Warrant shall be convertible
into one common share at a price of $0.25 for the period of 36 months from the
Closing Date. The Company may give written notice to Jordan and the holders of
the Warrants that the expiry date of the Warrants has been shortened to the
date that is 30 days after the date of such notice if the closing price of the
Company's common shares is equal to or greater than $0.50 per share for 20
consecutive trading days any time following four months from closing.
    The Offering will be sold utilizing the "accredited" investor exemptions
from prospectus requirements in applicable jurisdictions and such other
exemptions as Jordan and the Issuer may agree.
    Medallion will pay Jordan a commission of 9% of the gross proceeds raised
in the Offering (the "Commission") payable in cash or Non-FT Units. As
additional consideration, Jordan will be granted non-transferable options (the
"Agent's Options") entitling Jordan to purchase Non-FT Units equivalent to
10.0% of the aggregate number of FT Units and Non-FT Units sold under the
Offering, at the Offering price, for a period of 36 months from the date of
closing of the Offering. Medallion has also agreed to pay Jordan a corporate
finance fee. The Offering remains subject to regulatory approval.
    The net proceeds of the private placement will be used to fund the
ongoing work program on the Romaine Iron-Titanium Project and for working
capital.
