Gem International Resources Inc. Closes Second and Final Tranche of Non-
Brokered Private Placement and Closes Debt Settlement
TORONTO, Dec. 27, 2019 -- Gem International Resources Inc. (the “ Company”) (NEX:GI.H) is pleased to announce that, in
connection with its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the “ Offering”), the Company has completed the
second and final tranche (“ Second Tranche ”) of the Offering. The Offering is comprised of the sale of 8,000,000 common
shares in the capital of the Company (“Shares”) at a price of $0.05 per Share. The first tranche of the Offering consisted of the
sale of 7,000,000 Shares for aggregate gross proceeds of $350,000 and the Second Tranche consisted of the sale of
1,000,000 Shares for aggregate gross proceeds of $50,000.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate and working capital purposes.
Completion of the Offering is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals,
including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and applicable securities regulatory authorities. The Common Shares
issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a four month and one day statutory hold period.
The Company also announces that it has completed a debt settlement of an aggregate of $262,750 owing to certain officers,
directors, and service providers to the Company through the issuance of up to 5,255,000 Common Shares at an implied issue
price of $0.05 per Common Share (the “Debt Settlement ”).
The amount to be settled includes $140,000 of accrued directors' fees owing to the Company's directors, representing the
maximum amount owing that may be settled in shares without first obtaining disinterested shareholder approval.
The participation by the insiders in the Debt Settlement is considered a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral
Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101"). The issuer intends to rely on the exemptions set forth in MI 61-101 Section 5.5(b) and 5.7(1)
(b) from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements, respectively, as (i) no securities of the Company
are listed or quoted on the markets specified in section 5.5(b) of MI 61-101; (ii) the fair market value of the Common Shares to
be issued in respect of the Debt Settlement does not exceed $2,500,000; (iii) the Company has one or more independent
directors in respect of the Debt Settlement who are not employees of the Company; and (iv) Debt Settlement with each related
party was unanimously approved by the Company’s independent directors. In addition, neither the Company nor, to the
