Westwater signed a new purchase agreement under which Lincoln Park committed to buy up to $30 million of its stock over 24 months, at Westwater's option. It also set up an $8.05 million at-the-market program with H.C. Wainwright and terminated its 2017 Cantor Fitzgerald sales agreement.
The at-the-market stock-sale program with Cantor Fitzgerald was expanded again, to up to $50 million, under a fresh registration after the company's move to NYSE American.
Alongside a routine expansion of its Cantor Fitzgerald at-the-market program, Westwater disclosed a letter of intent to sell its remaining New Mexico/Texas uranium assets for about $1.95 million in the buyer's stock plus royalties, and returned its Nevada/Utah lithium claims to the government - completing the pivot away from uranium and lithium toward graphite.

Days later the company raised the new creditor's conversion-price floor from $0.10 to $0.30/share, softening the prior week's dilutive terms, and separately amended its pending Hydro Resources sale to Laramide Resources to drop the requirement that Laramide line up financing first, in exchange for a $250,000 break fee.
RCF extended the maturity of the company's $8 million convertible notes from December 31, 2016 to March 31, 2017, with 15% interest from January 1, 2017. A new creditor bought $2.5 million of the notes, agreed to buy $5.5 million more, and could exchange them for stock at the greater of 77% of VWAP or $0.10 per share.
The company raised $6 million in another registered direct offering, at $1.50 per unit with attached warrants - a lower price and richer warrant coverage than its 2014 raise, reflecting a weaker stock.
RCF cut its convertible loan facility from $15 million to $8 million by shrinking the second tranche to $3 million and cancelling the third. RCF then advanced the final $3 million, and the company settled its lawsuit with former CFO Thomas Ehrlich by issuing him 119,231 shares.
The company raised $10.3 million selling 3.96 million shares at $2.60 in a direct offering to institutional investors, on top of its existing small at-the-market stock-sale program with BTIG.
What it means for a shareholder
4.0m new shares at US$2.60 to raise about US$10.3m. That's 17% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 17% smaller. If you held US$1,000 of shares (385 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.00194% to 0.00162% of the company. To keep it you'd need 77 more shares - about US$200 at the issue price.
Lender Resource Capital Fund V exercised rights to buy about $5 million more stock at $2.55/share, paying for it by offsetting its existing bridge loan, which pushed RCF's ownership stake from 28% to almost 33%.
