VANCOUVER, BC, Feb. 27, 2023 /CNW/ - Euromax Resources Ltd. (TSX: EOX): ("Euromax" or the "Company"), announces that the Company has obtained agreements from each of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development ("EBRD") and CC Ilovitza Limited ("CCC"), an affiliate of Consolidated Contractors Company Group, to extend the maturity date of EBRD's and CCC's previously issued convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amounts of USD$5,000,000 and CAD$5,200,000, respectively, from February 28, 2023, to February 28, 2024.

In completing the amendments to the Company's previously issued convertible debentures, the Company is relying on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements in Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101") contained in sections 5.5(e) and 5.7(1)(c) of MI 61-101, respectively.

EBRD Convertible Loan Agreement

Prior to the extension of the maturity date of the convertible loan agreement with Euromax (the "Convertible Loan Agreement"), EBRD owned 23,368,547 common shares of the Company and was entitled to own and control an additional 98,877,475 common shares by converting amounts owing to it under the Convertible Loan Agreement as at February 28, 2023 (using a conversion price of C$0.15 per share and an exchange rate of US$1 = C$1.34), for an aggregate beneficial ownership of shares of 122,246,022 common shares, representing an aggregate ownership interest of approximately 20.76% (on a post-conversion basis).

Following the extension of the maturity date and including the common shares of Euromax that it currently owns, using the assumptions above and assuming conversion of the full amount owing to it under the Convertible Loan Agreement on February 28, 2024, EBRD would be entitled to beneficially own and control an aggregate of 129,167,445 common shares of the Company (an increase of 6,921,423 common shares compared to prior to the extension), representing an aggregate ownership interest of approximately 21.68% (on a post-conversion basis) of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company, and an increase of 0.92% compared to prior to the extension (on a post-conversion basis).

EBRD agreed to extend the maturity of the Convertible Loan Agreement for investment purposes.  Depending on market conditions and other factors, EBRD may from time to time acquire and/or dispose of securities of the Company or continue to hold its current position.
