cash payment will increase the cash reserves of both Legacy Iron and Hawthorn.
Upon completion of the Initial Investment, Hancock will hold a 30% interest in the Project with
Legacy Iron and Hawthorn holding 42% and 28% respectively.
Earn-in occurs with Hancock increasing its interest in the Project by a further 21% through the funding of a completed PFS. After the earn-in, Hancock will hold 51%, Legacy will hold 29.4% and Hawthorn will hold 19.6% of the Project.
