TORONTO, Jan. 7, 2020 /CNW/ - Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (NYSE: AEM, TSX: AEM) ("Agnico Eagle") announced today that it was issued (the "Issuance") 10,400,000 common share purchase warrants (the "2026 Warrants") of Orla Mining Ltd. (TSX-V: OLA) ("Orla") on December 18, 2019 in connection with, and as consideration for the funding commitments provided by Agnico Eagle under, the previously announced loan agreement dated December 18, 2019 (the "Loan Agreement") between, among others, Orla and Agnico Eagle.  Each 2026 Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one Common Share at a price of $3.00 at any time prior to December 18, 2026.

Prior to the Issuance, Agnico Eagle owned 17,613,835 Common Shares and 870,250 common share purchase warrants of Orla entitling holders to acquire one Common Share at a price of $2.35 at any time prior to February 15, 2021 (the "2021 Warrants"), representing approximately 9.47% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a non-diluted basis and 9.89% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a partially-diluted basis assuming the exercise of the 2021 Warrants held by Agnico Eagle.  Following the Issuance, Agnico Eagle owned 17,613,835 Common Shares, 870,250 2021 Warrants and 10,400,000 2026 Warrants, representing approximately 9.47% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a non-diluted basis and 14.64% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a partially-diluted basis assuming exercise of the 2021 Warrants and the 2026 Warrants held by Agnico Eagle.

Agnico Eagle and Orla are party to an Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement dated December 17, 2019 (the "Investor Rights Agreement") pursuant to which Agnico Eagle was granted, subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Investor Rights Agreement, certain rights, including the right to participate in certain equity financings undertaken by Orla and the right to nominate one member to Orla's board of directors (which it has no present intention of exercising). The Investor Rights Agreement also provides that Agnico Eagle will, for a period of 18 months from October 18, 2019, either vote the Common Shares it owns in accordance with the recommendations of the management or board of directors of Orla or abstain from voting on such matters and includes certain limited restrictions on the transfer of Common Shares held by Agnico Eagle.

The Loan Agreement provides for certain restrictions on Agnico Eagle's ability to transfer the 2026 Warrants until the loan commitments provided by Agnico Eagle thereunder have been satisfied.

Agnico Eagle acquired the Common Shares, the 2021 Warrants and the 2026 Warrants for investment purposes.  Depending on market conditions and other factors, Agnico Eagle may, from time to time, acquire additional Common Shares, common share purchase warrants or other securities of Orla or dispose of some or all of the Common Shares, common share purchase warrants or other securities of Orla that it owns at such time.

An amended early warning report will be filed by Agnico Eagle in accordance with applicable securities laws, in order to reflect the issuance of the 2026 Warrants.  To obtain a copy of the early warning report, please contact:
