NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR THROUGH U.S. NEWS WIRES
OTTAWA, April 21, 2021 - NBS Capital Inc. (“NBS” or the “Company”) (TSXV: NBS.P) is pleased to
announce, further to its press releases of October 19, 2020, January 4, 2021 and February 18, 2021 (the
“Press Releases”), that it has received conditional listing approval from the TSX Venture Exchange (the
“TSXVE”) in connection with its proposed arm’s length qualifying transaction (the “Qualifying
Transaction”) by way of scheme of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) under the laws of Australia with
Electric Metals (USA) Limited ( “EML”). In addition, the Company is pleased to announce that in
accordance with applicable Australian statutory procedural requirements, the Federal Court of Australia
has approved the Arrangement.
Pursuant to TSXVE policies, t he Company has filed a filing statement on Form 3B2 under its profile on
www.SEDAR.com. The Company expects that closing of the Qualifying Transaction and completion of
the Arrangement will occur as soon as practicable after the outstanding conditions to closing are met, which
NBS expects to be on or before April 30, 2021.
NBS is also pleased to announce that it has received TSXVE approval for the consolidation of the common
shares (the “Common Shares”) of the Company (the “Consolidation”). As previously announced in the
Press Releases, the shareholders of the Company approved a special resolution authorizing the Board of
Directors to consolidate the Common Shares of the Company in connectio n with the Arrangement . The
Board of Directors has confirmed the Company’s intention to proceed with a 0.73271 (new) for every one
(old) consolidation (0.73271 :1.0) of its Common Shares (the “Conversion Ratio ”). In addition, the
Company will change its name to “Nevada Silver Corporation” in conjunction with the Arrangement (the
“Name Change ”). The new ISIN number for the Common Shares on a post -Name Change and post -
Consolidation basis is CA64145K1075 and the new CUSIP number is 64145K107. There are currently
7,692,500 Common Shares outstanding; after giving effect to the Consolidation there will be approximately
5,636,372 Common Shares outstanding, prior to the completion of the Arrangement and prior to the
exercise of 730,000 outstanding NBS stock o ptions. The stock options are expected to be exercised
immediately before the effectiveness of the Consolidation and Name Change, and the underlying Common
Shares issued on exercise thereof will also be subject to the Consolidation at the Conversion Ratio.
The shares are expected to begin trading on the TSXVE on a post-Consolidation, post-Name Change basis
following completion of the Qualifying Transaction. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with
the Consolidation. NBS has mailed letters of transmittal to its registered shareholders so they may submit
their old certificates in order to obtain new common share certificates on a post-Consolidation and post-
Name Change basis. Registered Shareholders should follow the instructions on the Letter of Transmittal in
order to exchange their old pre-Consolidation share certificates for post-Consolidation, post-Name Change
share certificates. Shares held in uncertificated form by nonregistered shareholders through brokerage
accounts will be converted at the Conversion Ratio through each shareholder’s brokerage accounts. Non -
registered shareholders should consult their broker for further information.
Final acceptance of the Transaction will occur upon the issuance of the Final Exchange Bulleti n ( the
“Exchange Bulletin”) by the TSXVE. Subject to final approval by the TSXV, NBS will no longer be a
capital pool company and will be classified as a Tier 2 Mining Issuer pursuant to TSXV E policies trading
under the symbol “NSC”. NBS will issue a news release once the TSXV issues the Exchange Bulletin and
will then advise of the expected listing date.
The Concurrent Financing
In conjunction with the Qualifying Transaction, NBS announced on February 18, 2021 the closing of a non-
brokered private placement (the “Concurrent Financing”) of an aggregate of 15,301,923 subscription

whole warrant , an “NBS Warrant ”). Concurrently, each Subscription Receipt issued by NBS will be

NBS Warrant. Each NBS Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one share of NBS at an exercise price
of $0.60 per share for a period of two years from the closing of the Qualifying Transaction (the “Warrant

NBS Warrant holders should the closing price of the shares of the Resulting Issuer on the TSXV be greater

of the Subscription Receipts and the Arrangement will be issued on a post-Consolidation basis.
