Green Shift Commodities Ltd. (
TSXV:
GCOM and
OTCQB: GRCMF),
(“
Green Shift”, “
GCOM” or the
“
Company”) is pleased to announce multiple updates
which strengthens its growing equity portfolio and bolsters its
capital position. The Company has entered into a non-binding letter
of intent (“
LOI”) on April 23, 2024 with a
third-party (“
AcquireCo”) pursuant to which
AcquireCo has agreed to acquire 100% of the 1% NSR royalty covering
all production from the Berlin Project (the
“
Royalty”). AcquireCo is an arm’s length,
privately-held royalty company designed to gain exposure to rising
uranium prices by making strategic royalty acquisitions to grow its
portfolio.
Trumbull Fisher, CEO and Director of GCOM,
commented, “Today's announcement not only signifies our ability to
leverage the sale of the Royalty but also amplifies our potential
gains from rising uranium prices through gained access to various
potential royalties. We are thrilled to support AcquireCo's growth
within the uranium royalty sector, especially as market
fundamentals only continue to strengthen.”
Mr. Fisher further emphasized, “GCOM stands as a
dynamic Company with lithium exploration projects across the
Americas and substantial exposure to leading uranium companies via
our equity portfolio, which includes IsoEnergy Ltd., Premier
American Uranium Ltd., Atha Energy Corp., Jaguar Uranium Corp., and
now AcquireCo. We express gratitude to our shareholders for their
continued support in our evolving vision and providing the
resources necessary to continue advancing our exploration portfolio
and distinctive exposure across multiple commodities.”
Terms of the Proposed
Transaction
Pursuant to the LOI, AcquireCo has agreed to
acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of a newly-formed
subsidiary of the Vendor which will hold the Royalty, for total
consideration, payable to GCOM on closing of the Proposed
Transaction, comprised of 12,000,000 common shares of AcquireCo
(“AcquireCo Shares”) at a deemed issue price of
C$0.25 per AcquireCo Share, representing total deemed consideration
of C$3,000,000.
To ensure its success, GCOM has agreed to become
a lead advisor to AcquireCo as it relates to the building of a
uranium focused royalty company and a public listing of the
AcquireCo Shares on a recognized stock exchange.
Completion of the Proposed Transaction is
subject to the approval of each company’s board of directors and
negotiation and execution of a mutually agreeable definitive
purchase agreement, which will include provisions as are customary
for a transaction of this nature, including, without limitation,
customary representations, warranties, covenants and conditions.
Closing of the Proposed Transaction will be conditional upon, among
other things, receipt of all regulatory approvals in connection
with the Proposed Transaction and no material adverse change having
occurred affecting either the Royalty or AcquireCo.
In addition, on closing of the Proposed
Transaction, GCOM and AcquireCo have agreed to enter into an
investor rights agreement pursuant to which, among other things,
for so long as GCOM owns at least 10% of the issued and outstanding
AcquireCo Shares, GCOM shall have the right to appoint one member
of the Board of Directors of AcquireCo and shall be granted rights
to participate in any equity financing of AcquireCo in order to
maintain its pro rata ownership interest.
