Vancouver, BC, Canada, April 1, 2024 – TheNewswire – Sparx Technology Inc. (TSXV: SPRX) (“Sparx” or the “Company“) announces that, further to its news release dated January 8, 2024, it has entered into definitive share purchase agreement (the “SPA“) dated effective March 26, 2024, with Blok Sports, LLC (“Blok“), a privately-held, third-party corporate entity headquartered in Los Angeles, California. Pursuant to the SPA, Sparx will sell all of the issued and outstanding shares of its U.S. operating subsidiary, iPowow USA Inc. (‘iPowow“), to Blok (the “Sale Transaction“). The Company and Blok are arm’s length parties.

Blok is an early-stage, venture backed technology company founded in 2019 by Mitchell Chun, its current CEO, which has developed a suite of social sports betting, fan engagement, and AI-driven content and analytics solutions. Blok’s core offering is a regulated decentralized sports betting exchange developed using next-generation blockchain technology to ensure an unparalleled level of trust, fairness, and transparency for its users around the globe.

In furtherance of the Sale Transaction and prior to its completion, Sparx’s Canadian operating subsidiary, Sparx Technology Corp. (“Subco“), will transfer all of its operating assets and material contracts to iPowow. In addition, through the Sale Transaction, an aggregate of approximately $1.44 million of consolidated indebtedness of Sparx, will be extinguished. It is anticipated that following completion of the Sale Transaction, Sparx will have no operating assets and approximately $150,000 in remaining liabilities.

It is also anticipated that an aggregate of 26,814,154 currently outstanding common shares of Sparx will be cancelled on closing of the Sale Transaction, pursuant to the terms of a Surplus Escrow Agreement dated March 23, 2022 (the “Escrow Share Cancellation“).

As consideration for the Sale Transaction, Sparx is expected to receive common units of Blok (the “Blok Units“), representing approximately 4.5% of the Blok Units issued and outstanding on a post-transaction basis. In addition, Sparx is entitled to receive approximately 12% of up to an additional 3,200,000 Blok Units which may be issued by Blok, subject to iPowow achieving certain revenue milestones (the “Performance Payment Units“), from defined customers, over a period of 16 months following completion of the Sale Transaction.

Upon completion of the Sale Transaction, Sparx has agreed to deposit approximately 20% of its Blok Units into escrow for a period of one year, to support indemnity obligations concerning certain representations, warrants and covenants set out in the SPA. Certain other significant members of Blok have also deposited Blok Units into escrow under the same terms.

Completion of the Sale Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including: (i) completion of a US$500,000 financing by Blok; (ii) the receipt by Sparx of an independent fairness opinion in respect of the aggregate consideration (including the debt assumptions) to be received by Sparx in the Sale Transaction; and (iii) all necessary regulatory, creditor and shareholders and member approvals.

Sparx CEO, Alan Thorgeirson commented, “We are excited about the opportunity to build the Sparx business under the Blok umbrella and believe this reorganization transaction will allow our stakeholders an opportunity to realize further value through a stake in the combined entity. We believe that the operating efficiencies and synergies to be achieved by the combination of the two companies will provide a stronger platform to attract additional financing and further grow the business. Through this transaction, Sparx, as a public company, will position itself to pursue alternative transactions to enhance shareholder value.”

In connection with the restructuring, the Company intends to complete a share consolidation on the basis of 13 pre-consolidated common shares for one (1) post-consolidated common share (the “Consolidation“), and also intends to complete a non-brokered private placement (the “Subscription Receipts Financing“) to raise $250,000 through the issuance of 5,000,000 subscription receipts at a price of $0.05 per subscription receipt (the “Subscription Receipts“).

The proceeds of the Subscription Receipts Financing will be held in escrow, subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

1. completion of the Consolidation;

2. completion by Sparx of a name change acceptable to the parties and regulatory authorities;

3. completion of the Sales Transaction;

4. completion of the Escrow Cancellation;

5. completion of the Management Change (as defined below);

6. the Company having less than $150,000 in remaining indebtedness;

7. the transfer by Sparx of ownership of Subco to a third party, for nominal consideration, which shall include an assumption of any excess indebtedness;

8. the Company obtaining shareholder approval to the change of control contemplated in the Subscription Receipts Financing; and

9. the Company obtaining final TSX Venture Exchange (the Exchange“) approval to all matters relating to the Sale Transaction and other restructuring steps discussed herein.

Upon satisfaction of the escrow conditions, each Subscription Receipt will automatically convert into one post Consolidation common share of the Company for no additional consideration. In the event that the escrow conditions are not met, each Subscription Receipt will be cancelled, and the subscription funds will be returned to the subscribers.

The Company will not pay any finders fees in connection with the Sale Transaction or the Subscription Receipts Financing.

Upon closing of the Sale Transaction, Escrow Share Cancellation, Consolidation and the conversion of the Subscription Receipts, it is expected that Sparx will have approximately 8,560,629 post Consolidated common shares issued and outstanding.

It is expected that The Emprise Special Opportunities Fund (2017) Limited Partnership (“LP2017”) will subscribe for 4,000,000 Subscription Receipts, which will result in LP2017 owning 4,071,231 (47.56%) post Consolidation common shares of the Company.

The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Subscription Receipts Financing for general working capital purposes. Closing of the Subscription Receipts Financing remains subject to the approval of the Exchange.

As part of the closing of the Sale Transaction, the Company intends to apply to the Exchange to have its listing transferred to the NEX Board, a separate trading board of the Exchange which provides a trading forum for companies that have fallen below the Exchange’s ongoing listing standards.

Upon completion of the Sale Transaction, the current board of directors and management team of the Company will resign, and Scott Ackerman (CEO, CFO and Corporate Secretary), Doug McFaul, and Peter Dickie will join as directors and officers of the Company (the “Management Changes“).

The Company also announces that its Annual General and Special Meeting (“AGSM“) will be held in Vancouver, BC on May 17, 2024 at 10:00 am (Vancouver time). In addition to the standard items of business at general meetings, shareholders will be asked to approve resolutions for the Company to proceed with the Sales Transaction, the Consolidation, and the change of control contemplated in connection with the Subscription Receipts Financing.

Full details on the AGSM will be contained in the Management Information Circular prepared for the meeting, which will be mailed to the Company’s shareholders and available for review under the Company’s profile at www.sedarplus.ca.

Toronto, Ontario / TheNewswire / March 7, 2024 – Tantalex Lithium Resources Corp. (CSE:TTX) (FSE:DW8) (OTC:TTLXF) (“Tantalex” or the “Corporation“) announces that further to its news release dated February 21, 2024, it has settled various outstanding debt in the amount of CDN$5,526,398.40 (the “Debt“), effective February 28, 2024.

The Corporation owes International Cobalt Corp. (“ICC“) an amount of CDN$5,324,275.30, which stems from multiple unsecured convertible debentures of principal amounts of USD$2,100,000 and CDN$800,000 entered into between the parties in 2018 and in 2020 bearing an interest rate of 4% that became due in November of 2022, such debt is settled by issuing an aggregate of 106,485,506 common shares in the capital of the Corporation (the “Common Shares“) at a price of CDN$0.05 per Common Share and 50,000,000 common shares purchase warrants (the “Warrants“), exercisable into 50,000,000 Common Shares at a price of $0.10 for a period of thirty (30) months from issuance (the “ICC Debt Settlement“).

Moreover, the Corporation owes a consulting company and a news coverage and digital marketing service provider, CDN$113,000 and $89,123.10, respectively. The Corporation issued to each company, respectively, 2,260,000 Common Shares at a price of $0.05 per common Share and 1,782,462 Common Shares at a price of $0.05 per common Share (the “Services Debt Settlement“).

The Board of Directors has determined it is in the best interests of the Corporation to settle the outstanding Debt by the issuance of Common Shares and Warrants in order to preserve the Corporation’s cash for general working capital purposes. The issuance resulted in a new insider of the Corporation. The ICC Debt Settlement precludes ICC, together with any other voting or equity securities beneficially owned by the creditor, its associates and affiliates, directly or indirectly, from owning, or having control or direction over, 20% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the Corporation on a non-diluted basis.

The Common Shares and Warrants to be issued pursuant to the ICC Debt Settlement and Services Debt Settlement will be subject to a hold period of four (4) months and one (1) day from the date of issuance.

Prior to the transactions, ICC did not own any securities of the Corporation. After giving effect to the transactions, ICC owns, directly and indirectly, 106,485,506 Common Shares, representing approximately 14.74% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares based on 718,645,821 Common Shares issued and outstanding of the Corporation and 20.29% on a partially diluted basis, based on 768,645,821 Common Shares issued and outstanding. Also, AfriMet Resources AG (“AfriMet“), the Corporation’s significant shareholder suffered a dilution as a result of the transactions without any action being taken by AfriMet. Immediately prior to the transactions, AfriMet owned 143,315,277 Common Shares of the Corporation, which represented 23.54% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Corporation on a non-diluted basis. Immediately following the transactions, AfriMet’s ownership fell to 19.94% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Corporation on a non-diluted basis.

This news release is being issued pursuant to National Instrument 62-103, persons who wish to obtain a copy of the early warning reports to be filed by International Cobalt Corp. and AfriMet Resources AG in connection with this transaction herein may obtain a copy of such reports from www.sedarplus.ca or by contacting the person named below.

Debt Settlement with AfriMet

The Corporation intends to settle its outstanding debt with AfriMet (the “Afrimet Debt Settlement“). The parties entered into a loan agreement on June 30, 2022, whereby AfriMet loaned a principal amount of USD$7,213,006.56, bearing an interest rate of 10% per annum (the “Loan“). Pursuant to the terms of this agreement, the interest accrued is payable during the term of the Loan. The Corporation intends to repay the interest accrued as at December 31, 2023 in the amount of USD$1,084,915 (CDN$1,464,635.56) into 29,292,711 Common Shares at a price of $0.05 per Common Share.

The Board of Directors has determined it is in the best interests of the Corporation to settle the AfriMet Debt by the issuance of Common Shares in order to preserve the Corporation’s cash for general working capital purposes.

This transaction constitutes a “related party transaction” under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101“), as AfriMet is a significant shareholder. Pursuant to MI 61-101, the Corporation will file a material change report providing disclosure in relation to each “related party transaction” on SEDAR+ under the Corporation’s issuer profile at www.sedarplus.ca. The Corporation did not file the material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing date of the AfriMet Debt Settlement as the details of the agreement were not settled until shortly prior to the conclusion of the Agreement, and the Corporation wished to sign the Agreement on an expedited basis for sound business reasons. The Corporation is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements available under MI 61-101. The Corporation is exempt from the formal valuation requirement in section 5.4 of MI 61-101 in reliance on sections 5.5(a) and (b) of MI 61-101 as the fair market value of the transaction, insofar as it involves the significant shareholder, is not more than the 25% of the Corporation’s market capitalization, and no securities of the Corporation are listed or quoted for trading on prescribed stock exchanges or stock markets. Additionally, the Corporation is exempt from minority shareholder approval requirement in section 5.6 of MI 61-101 in reliance on section 5.7(1)(a) as the fair market value of the transaction, insofar as it involves the controlling shareholder, is not more than the 25% of the Corporation’s market capitalization.

Closing of the AfriMet Debt Settlement is subject to customary closing conditions and the Corporation intends to close as soon as practicable. Upon closing, the Corporation will make all necessary filings, including the filing of early warning report as required. The Common Shares to be issued pursuant to the AfriMet Debt Settlement will be subject to a hold period of four (4) months and one (1) day from the date of issuance.

The Company owns a 100% interest in 113 lithium lode and placer claims covering over 640 hectares in Clayton Valley. Clayton Valley is a down-dropped closed basin formed by the Miocene age Great Basin extension and is still active due to movement along the Walker Lane structural zone. As a result, the basin has preserved multiple layers of lithium bearing volcanic ash, resulting from multiple eruptive events over the past 6 million years including eruptions from the 700,000-year-old Long Valley Caldera system and related events. These ash layers are thought to contribute to the lithium brines extracted by Albemarle and are also likely involved in the formation of the exposed lithium rich clay deposits on the east side of Clayton Valley.

Volt Canyon Lithium Property

The Company owns a 100% interest in 80 placer claims covering approximately 635 hectares of alluvial sediments and clays located 122 km northeast of Tonopah, Nevada.

About the British Columbia, Nickel Projects

The Mount Sidney Williams Group consists of three claim blocks with a total area of 10,569 hectares in the area surrounding Mount Sidney Williams, both adjoining and near the Decar project of FPX Nickel Corp., located 100 kilometres northwest of Fort St. James, B.C., in the Omineca mining division. Metallic mineralization includes nickel, cobalt, and chromium. At least some of the nickel mineralization occurs as awaruite. The Mitchell Range Group area claim consists of one claim block covering 8,659 hectares with demonstrated metallic mineralization including nickel, cobalt, and chromium. Nickel cobalt mineralization has not been well explored, but the presence of awaruite has been documented. The Company’s B.C. Nickel properties are held within Grid’s wholly-owned subsidiary, AC/DC Battery Metals Inc.

The Company has previously announced plans to spin out its wholly-owned subsidiary, AC/DC Battery Metals Inc., finance it separately, and separately list it on the TSX Venture Exchange in 2024.

Vancouver, B.C. — TheNewswire — March 19, 2024–Bathurst Metals Corp. (“Bathurst” or the “Company”) (TSXV:BMV) (OTC:BMVVF) is pleased to announce the completion of the Company’s inaugural diamond drilling program on our Peerless Project, testing the Beta Zone area. The program entailed completing four HQ-size diamond drill holes for 702.0 metres. The Peerless Property is in the historic Bralorne-Gold Bridge Mining Camp area in southwest British Columbia.

The company initially planned to drill three (3) holes totaling 600 metres. Based on the extent and concentrations of mineralization and noted visible gold, the program was expanded to four (4) holes for a total of 702.0 metres.

Mineralization consisted mainly of fracture-controlled to semi-massive arsenopyrite, pyrite, galena, and sphalerite associated with quartz veins, quartz-carbonate veining, micro-veining, and areas of extensive silica flooding. Intense clay alteration also occurs near sulphide mineralization. Mineralization is hosted mainly within brecciated and listwanite altered (carbonate, serpentine, talc, mariposite/fuchsite) ultramafics, sparse feldspar porphyry dykes and carbonatized felsic dykes.

This successful drill program allowed the Company geologists to confirm the occurrence of an east-west trending, near vertical structure associated with mineralization. The structure appears to offset the local dykes, and based on airborne and ground magnetic surveys, several additional structures may occur on the property in areas of elevated base and precious metals present in historic soil samples.

Lorne Warner, P.Geo, President of Bathurst Metals Corp., States, ” We were very successful in our first drilling program consistently locating and encountering significant concentrations of mesothermal sulphide mineralization in the target east-west trending structure we believe is responsible for the gold mineralization. Confirming our hypothesis, visible gold was indeed observed to be associated with sulphide mineralization. We also suspect we have located a second similar gold-bearing structure, both of which remain open along strike and to depth.”

Once the Company has received and compiled the multi-element analysis ICP (Induced Coupled Plasma) and gold fire assay data of the 108 selected samples. The Company will consider further drill testing in late spring 2024 as the structure remains open along strike and down-dip. Assay results are pending.
