VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 13, 2024 / Lincoln Gold Mining Inc. ("Lincoln") (TSXV:LMG) is pleased to announce that it intends to complete a non-brokered private placement (the "Private Placement") of convertible debenture units (the "Note Units") for gross proceeds of up to C$150,000. Each Note Unit will be comprised of one unsecured convertible debenture of the Company (each, a "Note") and such number of common share purchase warrants in the capital of the Company ("Warrants") equal to the Principal (as hereinafter defined) divided by the Conversion Price (as hereinafter defined). Each Warrant is exercisable into one common share in the capital of the Company (a "Common Share") at an exercise price of C$0.35 for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.

The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Private Placement for general working capital and corporate purposes and on exploration and development of the Bell Mountain Project upon completing the acquisition of the Bell Mountain Project from Eros Resources Corp. (the "Acquisition"). The Company intends to complete the Acquisition concurrently with closing the Private Placement or shortly thereafter. Closing of the Acquisition is subject to TSXV (as defined below) approval.

Paul Saxton, President and CEO of Lincoln Gold Mining Inc., stated, "This funding will be instrumental in advancing the Bell Mountain project, which will be Lincoln's flagship project upon completing its acquisition from Eros. While we are working to complete the final steps with the TSXV to close the Bell Mountain acquisition, we remain focused on driving the Bell Mountain project into production."

The Notes will have a maturity date (the "Maturity Date") of 24 months from the date of issuance, unless previously converted in accordance with the terms of the Notes. From and after the date of issue of the Notes until the Maturity Date, any principal amount (the "Principal") may be converted, at the option of the Note holder, into Common Shares at a conversion price of C$0.15 per Common Share (the "Conversion Price"). Interest on the Notes will accrue at a rate of 18% per annum (the "Interest"), subject to adjustments, payable at maturity of the Notes. Subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"), the Company may elect to convert any portion of the accrued and outstanding Interest into Common Shares, which will be issued at the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSXV on the last trading day immediately prior to the announcement of such conversion.

Within 10 days of the Maturity Date, the Note holder may elect, at its sole option, to have the then outstanding Principal repaid in cash or converted into Common Shares, in accordance with the terms of the Note and by providing the Company with written notice of such election.

Closing of the Private Placement is subject to all necessary regulatory and stock exchange approvals and execution of final documentation. All securities issued in connection with the Private Placement will be subject to a four-month hold period from the date of issue under applicable Canadian securities laws, in addition to such other restrictions as may apply under applicable securities laws of jurisdictions outside Canada.
