Scottie Resources Corp. (TSX-V: SCOT) (OTCQB: SCTSF) (FSE: SR80) is pleased to announce the closing of its previously announced non-brokered private placement financing, through the issuance of 11,327,420 charitable flow-through shares of the Company at a price of $2.14 per Charity FT Share for gross proceeds of $24,240,678.80. Ocean Partners UK Limited provided a lead order of approximately $5 million, translating to $6,903,224.84 million in charitable flow-through funding.
Each Charity FT Share will qualify as a “flow-through share” (within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada)).
The gross proceeds from the Offering will be used by the Company to incur eligible “Canadian exploration expenses” that qualify as “flow-through mining expenditures” as such terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada) related to the Scottie Gold Mine Project in British Columbia. Qualifying Expenditures with respect to the Charity FT Shares will also qualify as “BC flow-through mining expenditures” as such term is defined in the Income Tax Act (British Columbia). All Qualifying Expenditures will be renounced in favour of the subscribers for the Charity FT Shares effective on or before December 31, 2025.
In connection with the Offering, the Company paid cash commissions of $153,450 to certain finders and issued 99,000 non-transferable finder’s warrants. Each Finder’s Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share in the capital of the Company at an exercise price of $1.76 per common share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.
The Offering remains subject to final acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange. All securities issued in the Offering are subject to a hold period expiring on April 4, 2026, in addition to such other restrictions as may apply under applicable securities laws of jurisdictions outside Canada.

MI 61-101
The Investment is considered to be a “related-party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. The Company is relying on exemptions from the minority shareholder approval and formal valuation requirements applicable to related-party transactions under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a), respectively, of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the shares purchased on behalf of Ocean Partners nor the consideration to be paid by Ocean Partners exceeds 25% of the Company’s market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Offering as the details and amounts of the Offering were not finalized until closer to closing and the Company wished to close the transaction as soon as practicable for sound business reasons.
