Energizer Resources Announces Private Placement Subscription Receipt Financing Mine Development

Energizer Resources Inc. (TSX:EGZ) (OTCQX:ENZR) (FWB:YE5) (“Energizer” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has engaged an agent (the “Agent”) to conduct a brokered private placement, on a best efforts basis, of securities of the Company (the “Offering”) to raise gross proceeds of up to C$8,000,000 through the sale of subscription receipts of the Company (the “Subscription Receipts”). In addition, Energizer anticipates completing a non-brokered private placement on the same terms for gross proceeds of up to C$600,000 raising, if fully subscribed as to the brokered and non-brokered placements, an aggregate of C$8,600,000. In the event the Offering is fully subscribed, the Company has agreed that a total of up to 125,000,000 Subscription Receipts may be sold.

Each Subscription Receipt will automatically entitle the holder to receive, without payment of additional consideration, one common share (“Common Share”) and one half of one warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”) of the Company, upon satisfaction of certain conditions, including receipt of necessary shareholder and Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) approvals (the “Escrow Release Conditions”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share. Each Warrant will have a term of 18 months following the date of issue.

In connection with the Offering, in the event that the Escrow Release Conditions are satisfied, Energizer will pay to the Agent a cash fee equal to up to 6% of the gross proceeds raised under the Offering and will issue to the Agent warrants (the “Broker Warrants”) to purchase that number of Common Shares equal to 6% of the aggregate number of Subscription Receipts sold in the Offering (together, the “Agency Fee”). Each Broker Warrant will have a term of 18 months following its issue and be exercisable at the same exercise price as the Warrants.Subject to agreement, the Agent and the Company may agree to increase the size of the Offering, on the same terms and conditions, up to an aggregate of 125,000,000 Subscription Receipts. The Company and the Agent agree that there may be more than one closing under the Offering. The Agent will also be entitled to the Agency Fee in respect of any Subscription Receipts sold upon an increase in size of the Offering.

All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a minimum six month hold period. The Offering is subject to the approval of the TSX and other conditions, including satisfactory due diligence. The first closing of the Offering is expected to be on or around December 3, 2013.

The gross proceeds of the Offering will be held in escrow pending satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions. The net proceeds from the Offering will be used to fund a bankable feasibility study in respect of the Company’s Molo Project in Madagascar and for general working capital purposes.

The Company has applied to list the Common Shares underlying the Subscription Receipts and the common shares underlying the Warrants and Broker Warrants on the TSX. Listing will be subject to satisfying all of the requirements of the TSX. There can be no assurance as to whether or when the Offering may be completed or whether the Escrow Release Conditions will ever be met and the Common Shares and Warrants underlying the Subscription Receipts released to the subscribers. If the Escrow Release Conditions are not satisfied in accordance with terms of the Offering on or before December 31, 2013 or such later date as may be agreed by the Company and the Agent (provided that such date is not later than January 31, 2014), holders of the Subscription Receipts will be entitled to the return of their subscription amount plus their pro rata share of any interest earned on such subscription amount.
