EAGLE PLAINS VENDS URANIUM DISPOSITIONS IN THE EASTERN ATHABASCA BASIN TO STANDARD URANIUM, EXTENDS WARRANTS

Eagle Plains Resources Ltd. has entered into a mineral property purchase and sale agreement, dated effective Aug. 24, 2023, with a wholly owned subsidiary of Standard Uranium Ltd., pursuant to which Standard will acquire eight additional mineral claims totalling 4,278 hectares contiguous with the recently staked Corvo project in the Eastern Athabasca basin region. Upon completion of the acquisition, the Corvo project will comprise 7,989 hectares within 10 claims and contain 14.5 kilometres of prospective exploration corridors across two trends.

Summary of purchase agreement

Pursuant the terms of the definitive agreement, the aggregate purchase price payable by Standard Uranium to the Eagle Plains consists of (a) 1.25 million common shares of the company (the consideration shares) and (b) the granting of a net smelter returns royalty of 2.5 per cent (the NSR royalty) to Eagle Plains on all Corvo claims effective as of the commencement of commercial production. The NSR royalty is subject to a buydown right in favour of Standard Uranium pursuant to which Standard Uranium may extinguish 1 per cent of the NSR royalty in exchange for payment of $1-million, thereby reducing the NSR royalty to 1.5 per cent. The consideration shares will be subject to a four-month hold period as prescribed by applicable securities laws.

With the expansion of the Corvo project, Standard will have ownership interests in seven projects totalling over 75,895 hectares across the uranium-rich Athabasca basin.

Completion of the acquisition remains subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The company and Eagle Plains are at arm's length, and no finders' fees or commissions are payable by the company in connection with the acquisition. Upon issuance, the consideration shares will be subject to a four-month hold period as prescribed by applicable securities laws.

"Completing this deal with Eagle Plains will add significant value to the Corvo project, delivering more than five kilometres of additional prospective exploration corridors in addition to several more historical uranium showings," said Sean Hillacre, president and vice-president of exploration for Standard. "The fact that the project is road accessible year-round complements the strong geoscience attributes of the project, drawing on the analogy of the nearby Gemini mineralized zone. With this addition to the claims staked by our team, Corvo is now a highly optionable project with size and strong geological characteristics prospective for uranium mineralization."

Tim Termuende, PGeo, president and chief executive officer of Eagle Plains, commented recently: "we are pleased to have concluded a mutually beneficial deal with Standard on their Corvo project. Standard brings to the table a solid management team while Eagle Plains will maintain significant upside exposure to the project through its sizeable shareholdings in Standard and the retention of an NSR. By vending non-core claims at Corvo, Eagle Plains stays true to its proven model as a project generator and will continue its' focus of researching, identifying and acquiring new exploration opportunities in western Canada."

Eagle Plains announces application to extend warrant expiry

Eagle Plains has made application to the TSX Venture Exchange for approval and acceptance to amend the term of 1,526,000 outstanding common share purchase warrants which were issued in connection with a non-brokered private placement closed on Sept. 25, 2020 (see Eagle Plains news release dated Sept. 25, 2020). The warrants have a current expiry date of Sept. 25, 2023.

The share purchase warrants are subject to an accelerated expiry at the option of the company if the published closing trade price of the common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange is greater than or equal to 50 cents for any 20 consecutive trading days, in which event the holder may be given notice that the warrants will expire 30 days following the date of such notice. The common share purchase warrants may be exercised by the holder during the 30 day period between the notice and the expiration of the common share purchase warrants.

Eagle Plains has applied to extend the expiry date for an additional 12 months to a revised date of Sept. 25, 2024. The exercise price and acceleration clause of the warrants will remain unchanged, at 30 cents per warrant.
