S2 Announces Inc. Acquisition of Mining Claims

The Property was acquired from an insider of the Company pursuant to an assignment agreement dated as of April 14, 2023. The insider had acquired the Property from an arm's length third party for a cash payment of $300,000 and a 2% net smelter returns royalty (the "Royalty") and agreed that if the Property was assigned to a public company before March 2024, such public company would issue $50,000 of common shares (the "Shares"). The Company assumed the obligations under the Royalty, paid $300,000 to the insider and issued 526,315 Shares with a deemed price of $0.095 per Share.

The assignment of the Property and assumption of the Royalty may be a "related party transaction" and therefore subject to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101") because the Company has acquired the Property from, assumed the obligations of a related party under the Royalty. However, Section 5.4(1) of MI 61-101 provides that such assignment and assumption does not require a formal valuation and Section 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 provides that the Company is exempt from the requirement to obtain minority shareholder approval because the fair market value of any consideration received by the related party in connection with such assignment and assumption is less than 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
