ArcPacific Resources Corp.
(
TSXV: ACP
)
("
ACP
" or the "
Company
") is pleased to announce it is strengthening its technical team
with the addition of James (Jim) Turner P.Geo., Consulting Geologist to its Advisory Board.
Adrian Smith, CEO of ACP comments, "We are pleased to welcome Jim to the team and excited to take
advantage of his extensive technical experience gained through the exploration and development of
copper and gold projects globally. Jim's lengthy career includes extensive experience in British
Columbia and Canada, which will be a welcomed addition to our Canadian focused portfolio."
Jim Turner's geology career has spanned more than 45 years commencing in 1974, when he worked
with Cominco and Newmont Gold before forming his consultancy, TerraSat Geomatics Inc. ("
TerraSat
")
in 1990. TerraSat has worked with several junior mining issuers involved in greenstone belts around the
world. From 2004-2006, Jim gained valuable first-hand knowledge in Central America where he
provided valuations and NI 43-101 reports for several projects. In addition to assisting ACP, Jim is
advising on a gold project in South Africa, copper deposits in Namibia and British Columbia and tailings
deposits in Nova Scotia, Oregon, Peru, and Costa Rica.
The Company also announces that it intends to reprice an aggregate of 10,189,166 outstanding
common share purchase warrants ("
Warrants
") issued pursuant to two private placements that closed
on November 24, 2020 and October 23, 2021, with Warrant expiration dates of November 24, 2022 and

").

The Warrants will be subject to an accelerated expiry provision such that if, for any 10 consecutive
trading days (the "
Premium Trading Days
") during the unexpired term of the Warrants, the closing
price of the common shares ("
Common Shares
") exceeds the acceleration price of $0.069, the
exercise date will be accelerated to thirty (30) calendar days (the "
Acceleration Clause
"). The
activation of the Acceleration Clause will be announced by press release and the 30-day period will
commence 7 days after the last Premium Trading Day.
Any insiders of the Company who participated as to more than 10% in the financing in which the
Warrants were issued will be subject to a limit of 10% of their holdings being repriced on a pro rata
basis in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "
Exchange
"). All other terms of
the Warrants remain unchanged.
The Warrant Amendments are subject to acceptance by the Warrant holders and approval of the
Exchange (the "
Warrant Amendment Approval
").
Immediately following the Warrant Amendments, the Company announces that it intends to run a warrant
exercise incentive program (the "
Incentive Program
") designed to encourage the early exercise of
10,189,166 of its outstanding unlisted Warrants exercisable for Common Shares of the Company. Under
the Program, the Company is offering an inducement to each Warrant holder that exercises their
Warrants for a period of 60 days from receipt of Warrant Amendment Approval (the "
Early Exercise
Period
"), by the issuance of one additional common share purchase warrant (an "
Incentive Warrant
")
for each Warrant early exercised. Each Incentive Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one
additional Common Share for a period of 12 months from the date of issuance of such Incentive Warrant,
at a price of $0.15.
The Program will commence upon receipt of Warrant Amendment Approval and it will expire 60 days
thereafter at 4:00 p.m. (Vancouver time). The Incentive Warrants will be subject to a four month hold
period from the date of issuance and will include a warrant acceleration provision by which the Company
will be permitted to accelerate the expiry date of the Incentive Warrants if the closing price of the
Company's Common Shares on the Exchange remains at or above $0.15 for a period of ten consecutive
days (the "
Acceleration Event
"). In the event the Company exercises the Acceleration Event (by
disseminating a news release advising of the Acceleration Event), holders will have 30 days to exercise
the Incentive Warrants, after which the unexercised Incentive Warrants will be void and of no effect.
The Company intends to issue an updating news release upon receipt of Warrant Amendment approval
and commencement of the Incentive Program outlining the terms and conditions and the method of
exercising the Warrants pursuant to the Incentive Program.
The Incentive Program remains subject to Exchange Approval.
The Company also announces that it has issued 1,500,000 stock options ("
Options
") to consultants to
purchase up to 1,500,000 Common Shares of the Company. The Options are exercisable for a period of
two years from grant with an exercise price of $0.05 per Common Share.
