STRIKEPOINT GOLD ANNOUNCES CLOSING OF LIFE OFFERING FOR GROSS PROCEEDS OF C$3.1 MILLION

Strikepoint Gold Inc. has closed its non-brokered private placement offered under the listed issuer financing exemption. The company issued 20,797,460 units of the company at a price of 15 cents per unit for gross proceeds of $3,119,619.

Each unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant of the company. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share in the capital of the company at an exercise price of 30 cents at any time on or before Nov. 18, 2027.

The units were sold pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption under Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106, Prospectus Exemptions. The securities offered under the LIFE offering will not be subject to a hold period in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws, provided that the warrants issued under this LIFE offering shall not be exercisable for a period of 60 days after the date of issue.

In connection with the LIFE offering, the company paid finders' fees in the total amount of $161,416.50 and issued 1,076,110 non-transferable warrants. Each finder warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share in the capital of the company at a price of 30 cents at any time on or before Nov. 18, 2027, which will be subject to a statutory hold period expiring four months and one day from the date of closing.

The company intends to use the net proceeds raised from the LIFE offering for exploration activities at its two Nevada-based projects, the Hercules gold project and the Cuprite gold project, as well as general working capital purposes. The LIFE offering closing remains subject to several prescribed conditions, including, without limitation, approval of the TSX-V.

Insiders of the company subscribed for a total of 199,460 units for aggregate gross proceeds of $29,919. The issuance of units to insiders is considered a related party transaction subject to Multilateral Instrument 61-101, Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. The company intends to rely on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements provided under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a) of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 on the basis that the participation in the LIFE offering by the insiders will not exceed 25 per cent of the fair market value of the company's market capitalization. No new insiders were created, nor any change of control occurred, as a result of the LIFE offering closing.
