Puma closes Chester project sale to Raptor

2024-10-03 16:16 ET - News Release

Mr. Marcel Robillard reports

PUMA EXPLORATION CLOSES THE SALE OF THE CHESTER PROJECT

Puma Exploration Inc. has closed the sale of the Chester project to Raptor Resources Ltd. and certain amendments to the terms of the previously announced transactions (see news releases dated March 4, 2024, July 2, 2024, and Sept. 10, 2024). The cash and share components for the sale of the Chester project remained unchanged, and Puma is pleased to report that Raptor has satisfied the conditions of the sale with its payment of $500,000 (Australian) and four million Raptor shares.

Considering the continued deterioration of market conditions, Raptor recently notified Puma of the withdrawal of its prospectus for its initial public offering, which aimed to raise up to $10-million (Australian) through the issuance of shares at 20 Australian cents each, but remains fully committed to its projects and focused on carrying an IPO or reverse takeover listing on the Australian Securities Exchange in early 2025. Given this context, Puma agreed to amendments to the initial transaction agreements to finalize the Chester project sale. More particularly, Puma agreed to receive four million unlisted Raptor shares that will convert to listed shares once Raptor completes its IPO or RTO listing.

The consideration receivable by Puma for the sale of the Turgeon project remains unchanged, consisting of a cash payment of $375,000 (Australian) and $375,000 (Australian) worth of Raptor shares (listed) at the latest on June 30, 2025.

Marcel Robillard, president and chief executive officer of Puma, commented: "We appreciate Raptor's continued efforts to close its acquisition of the Chester project. The $500,000 (Australian) payment to Puma represents a substantial non-dilutive injection of cash that allows us to continue to develop our Williams Brook gold project and increase shareholder value. This transaction showcases Puma's innovative DEAR corporate strategy that has been successful time and again with property acquisitions, sales and out-of-the-box thinking to generate added value for shareholders. This is especially critical now, at a time when markets, despite record-high commodity processes, are not supporting junior explorers."
