TSX Venture Exchange: NEV

VANCOUVER, BC, June 21, 2021 /CNW/ - Nevada Sunrise Gold Corporation ("Nevada Sunrise" or the "Company") (TSXV: NEV) plans to make an application to the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") to amend the term of an aggregate of 2,905,133 outstanding share purchase warrants, (the "Warrants") which were issued in connection with a non-brokered private placement in 2018 (see Nevada Sunrise news release dated July 17, 2018).

The Company is seeking to extend the term of the Warrants for two additional years, which would extend the expiry date to July 17, 2023. The exercise price of the Warrants will remain unchanged, at $0.25 per Warrant. The application to extend the expiry date of the Warrants is subject to acceptance by the TSXV.

The Company also announces that it has agreed to settle an aggregate of $18,793.48 in debt owing to certain of directors of the Company for through the issuance of 221,099 common shares at a deemed price of $0.085 per share (the "Debt Settlement").

Because the shares will be issued to directors of the Company, the Debt Settlement will constitute a "related party transaction" within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"), which is incorporated into Policy 5.9 of the TSXV Corporate Finance Manual. The Board of Directors of the Company has determined that neither the value of the shares issued to, nor the aggregate debt settled with respect to, any directors of the Company in connection with the Debt Settlement will exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization on the date hereof. As a result, the Debt Settlement is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101.

Completion of the Debt Settlement is subject to the approval of the TSXV. Shares issued in connection with the Debt Settlement will be subject to a four-month hold period in accordance with applicable securities laws.
