The Company will trade on the TSXV under the same ticker symbol, “TML”. Furthermore, in connection with the completion of the business combination with Blackwolf Copper and Gold Ltd., the Company will change its name from “Treasury Metals Inc.” to “NeXGold Mining Corp.” and complete a consolidation of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares on the basis of one post-consolidation Share for every four pre-consolidation Shares.

The Financing remains subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the TSXV and any applicable securities regulatory authorities. All securities issued in connection with the Financing are subject to a four-month and one-day hold period in Canada. Each FT Unit issued under the Financing consists of one Treasury Share that is issued as “flow-through shares” within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and one common share purchase warrant of Treasury. Each Warrant is exercisable at a price of $0.35 until July 2, 2027.
Certain insiders of the Company participated in Tranche 2, acquiring an aggregate of 8,690,000 FT Units on the same terms as other investors in the Financing for gross proceeds to the Company of C$1,998,700. The Insider Participation constitutes a “related party transaction” pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. The Company is exempt from the requirement to obtain a formal valuation and minority shareholder approval in connection with the Insider Participation under MI 61-101 in reliance on Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 due to the fair market value of the Insiders Participation being below 25% of the Company’s market capitalization for purposes of MI 61-101. The Company did not file a material change report 21 days prior to the expected closing date of the Financing as the details of the Insider Participation in the Financing had not been finalized at that time. The Financing was approved by the board of directors of the Company.
This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities in the United States, nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The securities offered in the Financing have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, United States persons absent registration or any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws.
