CBLT Sells Northshore Gold for Cash and Equity
Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - June 1, 2020) -
CBLT Inc. (TSXV: CBLT) ("CBLT") announces that, further to its news
release dated April 27, 2020, it has entered into a definitive mineral property purchase and sale agreement dated May 29, 2020
(the "
Agreement
") with
Omni Commerce
Corp. (FSE: 0MZA)
("
Omni
" or the "
Company
"), an unlisted reporting issuer in
good standing. Omni has over one million dollars in its treasury.
Omni has agreed to acquire CBLT's right, title and interest in and to its 56% joint venture interest (the "
JV
") in the Northshore
Gold Property (the "
Property
"), located in the Schreiber-Hemlo Greenstone Belt, 115 km west of Hemlo and 200 km east of
Thunder Bay, on the terms in the Agreement (the "
Transaction
"). Omni will assume the role of operator of the JV on completion
of the Transaction (the "
Closing
").
Terms of the Agreement
The terms of the Agreement are consistent with the terms of the letter of intent which were announced on April 27, 2020. The
total consideration payable to CBLT in respect of the Transaction is $1,450,000 (the "
Purchase Price
"), consisting of: (i) cash
consideration of $350,000 (the "
Cash Consideration
"), of which $50,000 has already been paid by way of non-refundable
cash deposits, and of which $300,000 is payable on Closing; and (ii) stock consideration of $1,100,000 payable by the
issuance of post-Consolidation (as defined below) common shares in Omni's capital on Closing (the "
Consideration Shares
").
Prior to the Closing, Omni will undertake a five-for-one consolidation of its issued and outstanding common shares (the
"
Consolidation
"). Omni will also complete a private placement financing of subscription receipts, on a post-Consolidation
basis, at a price of $0.60 per subscription receipt, each consisting of one share and one common share purchase warrant, for
gross total proceeds of not less than $1.5 million (the "
Financing
"). The Consideration Shares to be issued on Closing on a
post-Consolidation basis will be issued at a deemed price per share equal to the price of subscription receipts sold in the
Financing.
All of the Consideration Shares will be subject to the terms of a voluntary escrow agreement, to be entered by the parties prior to
Closing, which terms include the release of 25% of the Consideration Shares from escrow on each of the days which is four, six,
eight and 12 months after the Closing. This voluntary escrow will be in addition to any escrow required by the policies of any
applicable stock exchange and any hold restrictions under applicable securities laws.
In addition, if CBLT, or any of its affiliates, stakes or otherwise acquires any rights (the "
Additional Rights
") to minerals located
wholly or partially within or contiguous to the area located within two (2) kilometers from any portion of the exterior boundaries of
the Property, as such exterior boundaries exist on the Closing (the "
Area of Interest
"), CBLT must provide notice to Omni of
such acquisition and the details thereof, and Omni will have the election, to be exercised within thirty (30) days of the receipt of
the notice of such Additional Rights, whether to include the Additional Rights in the Property (whether such rights are contained
wholly within the Area of Interest or only partially within the Area of Interest).
In connection with the Transaction, Omni entered into finder's fee agreement dated March 2, 2020, as amended, with an arm's
length finder, Bello Capital Partners, for the payment of a finder's fee equal to 3% of the value of the Consideration Shares,
being $33,000, payable by the issuance of 55,000 post-Consolidation common shares in Omni's capital (the "
Omni Finder's
Shares
"), subject to the policies and the approval of any applicable stock exchange. When issued, the Omni Finder's Shares
will be subject to a restricted period of four months and one day.
Also in connection with the closing of the Transaction, CBLT entered into a finder's fee agreement dated May 12, 2020 with two
arm's length finders, Calico Management Corporation and Kim W. Measor (the "
CBLT Finders
") for the payment of finder's
fees to be paid at Closing by CBLT which include: (i) cash fees payable to each of the CBLT Finders by CBLT in the amount of
2.5% of the value of the Cash Consideration, and (ii) the transfer from CBLT to each of the CBLT Finders of 2.5% of the

"), subject to the policies and the approval of any applicable stock
exchange. When issued, the CBLT Finder's Shares will be subject to a restricted period of four months and one day and the
