NOC.H Norseman Capital Ltd

Norseman Capital Ltd. (NEX:NOC.H) (“Norseman” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that, further to its announcement on June 3, 2020, it has completed the acquisition (the “Transaction”) of an option to acquire a 100% interest in certain mining claims located in the Skeena Mining Division area in British Columbia (the “Caribou Property”), pursuant to an option agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with Cloudbreak Discover Corp. (“Cloudbreak”).

Pursuant to the Option Agreement, in order to fully exercise the option (the “Option”), the Company shall pay to Cloudbreak an aggregate of $80,000 and 2,750,000 common shares in the capital of the Company (“Common Shares”) in three installments. The first installment is composed of $10,000, payable on the effective date (the “Effective Date”) of the Option Agreement and 1,000,000 Common Shares issuable within five business days of approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”). The second installment is composed of $20,000 and 750,000 Common shares and is payable on the first anniversary of the Effective Date. The third and final installment is composed of $50,000 and 1,000,000 Shares and is payable on the second anniversary of the Effective Date.

In addition, pursuant to the Option Agreement, the Company shall grant to Cloudbreak a 2.0% net smelter return (“NSR”) royalty. The Company shall have the right to acquire one-half of the NSR from Cloudbreak at a price of $1,000,000, in which case the Company shall have the right to acquire the remaining half of the NSR at price of $4,000,000, for an aggregate of $5,000,000.

Upon issuance of the final exchange bulletin of the TSXV, the Company will complete its reactivation from the NEX board of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) to Tier 2 of the TSXV. It is anticipated that effective Monday, August 24, trading of the Company’s common shares will commence on the TSXV under the trading symbol “NOC”.

Non-brokered Private Placement

The Company also announces that it has closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement financing (the “Initial Offering”) of common shares (“Shares”). The Initial Offering consisted of the sale of 3,000,000 Shares at a price of $0.05 per Share for aggregate gross proceeds of $150,000.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Initial Offering for general corporate and working capital purposes.

In connection with the Initial Offering, Mr. Campbell Smyth, a director of the Company, acquired 320,000 Shares. This is a “related party transaction” as such term is defined by Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”), requiring the Company, in the absence of exemptions, to obtain a formal valuation for, and minority shareholder approval of, the “related party transaction”. The Company intends to rely on an exemption from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements set out in MI 61-101 as the fair market value of the participation in the Offering by Mr. Smyth does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company, as determined in accordance with MI 61-101.

The Company also announces that it has closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement financing (the ''Second Offering'') of units (“Units”). The Second Offering consisted of the sale of 2,000,000 Units at a price of $0.15 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $300,000. Each Unit is composed of one common share (“Share”) and one-half of one Share purchase warrant (“Warrant”). Each whole Warrant shall entitle the holder to purchase one Share at a price of CAD$0.25 per Share for a period of twenty-four months from the date of issuance.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Second Offering for general corporate and working capital purposes and on the recommended phase 1 program on the Caribou Property in connection with the entering into of the Option Agreement.

Completion of each of the Transaction, the Initial Offering, and the Second Offering is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and applicable securities regulatory authorities. All securities issued and issuable pursuant to the Transaction, the Initial Offering, and the Second Offering will be subject to a four month and one day statutory hold period.
