Company Announcements

TORONTO , Oct. 18, 2024 /CNW/ - Laramide Resources Ltd.("Laramide" or the "Company") (TSX: LAM) (ASX: LAM) (OTCQX: LMRXF), a uranium mine development and exploration company with globally significant assets in the United States and Australia, is pleased to announce that the Company and its lenders, Extract Capital Master Fund Ltd. and Extract Lending LLC (together, the "Lenders"), with Extract Advisors LLC acting as agent for and on behalf of the Lenders, completed an amendment to the existing term loan made by the Lenders in favour of Laramide Resources (USA) Ltd. (the "Term Loan"), which includes, among other things, (i) an extension of the maturity date of the Term Loan from March 31, 2025 to April 1, 2026, and (ii) a new non-convertible CAD$5 million standby credit facility (the "Multi-Draw Facility") with Extract. The Multi-Draw Facility will have the same maturity date as the Term Loan and allows for multiple drawdowns. All other terms of the Term Loan remain unchanged with a 7% coupon and CDN$0.40 conversion price while the Multi-Draw Facility, if utilized, will incur interest expense at 12% per annum. 

The Multi-Draw Facility will also have a $50,000 commitment fee (paid on closing) and a 1% standby fee on the undrawn portion of the Multi-Draw Facility payable quarterly. The Multi-Draw Facility will not be convertible into common shares of the Company.

In connection with the Multi-Draw Facility, Laramide has agreed to issue the Lenders 750,000 warrants to purchase common shares of the Company exercisable until October 18, 2027 at a price per common share equal to 135% of the volume weighted average trading price of the common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange for the five trading days prior to closing.

Commenting on the transaction, Laramide's President and CEO Marc Henderson said: "We are pleased for the continuing support of Extract, which has been a long-term shareholder of Laramide since well before the current uranium bull market began. With many catalysts immediately ahead for us, including further drill results from our ongoing Australian drilling program and an important upcoming State election in Queensland on October 26th, we believe these newly announced transactions will provide valuable financial flexibility for us going forward and should prove mutually beneficial."  

The issuance of the warrants to the Lenders remains subject to customary conditions including approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange and the Australian Securities Exchange, if applicable.
