Warrants issued as part of the NFT Units will be exercisable for a period of 36 months from the closing date. Warrants issued as part of the FT Units will be exercisable for a period of 24 months from the closing date.

The Warrants shall be subject to an accelerated expiry date clause whereby. At any time following the expiry of the four-months and one day hold period, should the weighted average closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSX-V”) be more than $0.20 for a period of 15 consecutive trading days, the Company shall be entitled to accelerate the expiry date of the warrants to a date which is 30 days following the date on which the Company announces the accelerated expiry of the Warrants by press release.

Closing of the proposed private placement is subject to obtaining all required approvals, including the approval of the TSX-V and any other regulatory approval. All securities issued pursuant to the private placement will be subject to a hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance under applicable securities laws. The securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and accordingly may not be offered or sold within the United States except in compliance with the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities requirements or pursuant to exemptions therefrom. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any securities in any jurisdiction.

The Company may pay a finder’s fee consisting of cash and finders’ warrants to certain qualified individuals. Each finders’ warrant would be issued upon the same terms as the NFT Unit Warrants issued as part of the offering.

The financing is expected to close on or about December 7, 2023. The net proceeds of the financing will be used for exploration at the Company’s Marshall Lake project and for general working capital purposes. In accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws, all securities issued pursuant to the private placement will have a hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance.
