NEWS RELEASE
BEDFORD METALS PROVIDES UPDATE ON FINANCING AND DEBT SETTLEMENT
December 14, 2022 – Vancouver, British Columbia – Bedford Metals Corp. (the “Company”)
(TSXV: BFM) announces that it has elected to revise the terms of its previously announced non-
brokered private placement (the “Offering”) and debt settlement transaction (the “Debt
Settlement”) at the request of the TSX Venture Exchange and in response to investor interest.
The Offering will now consist of a combination of convertible debentures units (the “Debenture
Units”) at a price of $1,000 per Debenture Unit and equity units (the “Equity Units”) at a price
of $0.085 per Equity Unit to raise gross proceeds of up to $1,000,000.
Each Debenture Unit will consist of: (i) one unsecured convertible debenture (each, a
“Convertible Debenture ”) in the principal amount of $1,000 maturing sixty months (the
“Maturity Date ”) from the closing of the Offering; and (ii) 8,695 detachable common share
purchase warrants of the Company (each, a “Warrant”). Each Convertible Debenture will bear
interest at a rate of eight percent per annum, payable upon the Maturity Date. Each Warrant will
entitle the holder purchase one common share of the Company at a price of $0.115 for a period
of sixty months from the closing of the Offering. The principal amount of the Convertible
Debentures will be convertible into common shares of the Company (each, a “ Conversion
Share”), at the option of the holder, at a rate of one Conversion Share for every $0.115 of
outstanding indebtedness.
Each Equity Unit will consist of: (i) one common share; and (ii) one Warrant.
Subscribers participating in the Offering will have the option to elect to subscriber for Debenture
Units, Equity Units, or any combination. In the event all Subscribers elect to receive Debenture
Units, and the Offering is fully subscribed, the Company will issue 1,000 Debenture Units upon
completion of the Offering. In the event all Subscribers elect to receive Equity Units, and the
Offering is fully subscribed, the Company will issue 11,764,706 Equity Units upon completion of
the Offering.
The proceeds of the Offering will be utilized by the Company for general working capital
purposes and to complete planned fieldwork at its wholly-owned Margurete Gold Project,
located at Phillips Arms in southwestern British Columbia. In connection with completion of the
Offering, the Company may pay finders’ fees to eligible third-parties who have introduced
subscribers to the Company.
Debt Settlement
The Company also announces that it has concurrently revised its agreement with an arms-
length creditor (the “Creditor”) to settle (the “Debt Settlement”) outstanding indebtedness (the
“Indebtedness”) totaling $410,482.15. The Indebtedness will now be settled through the
issuance of Debenture Units which will include a Convertible Debenture with an equivalent
principal amount on the same revised terms as the Offering. The Indebtedness represents
funds previously advanced to the Company by the Creditor, along with accrued interest, and
which were utilized by the Company for general working capital purposes.

All securities issued in connection with the Offering and the Debt Settlement will be subject to a
statutory hold period for four-months-and-one-day in accordance with applicable securities laws.
Completion of the Offering and the Debt Settlement remain subject to the approval of the TSX
Venture Exchange and are expected to be completed concurrently.
