Nevada Sunrise Gold Corp.: Announces Closing of Debt Settlement
VANCOUVER, July 31, 2020 - Nevada Sunrise Gold Corp. ("Nevada Sunrise" or the "Company") (TSXV: NEV) announces that following its news release of July 22, 2020, it has received approval of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") for the shares-for-debt transaction to settle an aggregate of $66,149.38 in indebtedness to the Company's directors and current and former officers, through the issuance of 529,195 common shares of the Company (the "Settlement Shares"), at a deemed price of $0.125 per Settlement Share (the "Debt Settlement"). Accordingly, the Company announces that it has completed the Debt Settlement. The Settlement Shares are subject to the statutory hold period of four months and a day, expiring December 1, 2020. Related Party Transactions
Because the shares will be issued to directors and officers 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 or officers 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.
