Gensource Potash Announces First Closing of
Private Placement Offering of Units
Saskatoon, Saskatchewan--(Newsfile Corp. - April 9, 2026) -
Gensource Potash Corporation
(TSXV:
GSP) ("
Gensource
" or the "
Company
"), a fertilizer development company focused on sustainable
potash production, is pleased to announce the first closing of a private placement offering of units
("
Units
") of the Company at a price of $0.15 per Unit (the "
Offering
"). Each Unit consists of one
common share in the capital stock of the Company (a "
Common Share
") and one Common Share
purchase warrant of the Company (a "
Warrant
"). Each Warrant is exercisable for one Common Share
(a "
Warrant Share
") at an exercise price of $0.25 per Warrant Share for a period of 18 months
following the date of issuance, subject to the Call Right of the Company described below. The Company
anticipates holding a second closing of the Offering in the coming days.
At the first closing of the Offering, the Company issued 9,598,500 Units for aggregate gross proceeds of
$1,439,775.00. The Common Shares and Warrants comprising the Units issued pursuant to the Offering
are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and a day from the date of issuance.
In the event that the Common Shares have a closing price on the TSX Venture Exchange, or other
exchange on which they may be traded, at or exceeding $0.30 per Common Share for ten (10)
consecutive trading days, the Company reserves the right to call the Warrants at their exercise price of
$0.25 per Warrant (the "
Call Right
"). If the Company wishes to exercise its Call Right, the Company
must provide written notice to the holders of the Warrants that it is calling the Warrants. Warrant holders
will have thirty (30) days from the date of such notice to exercise the Warrants and, in the event that any
Warrants are not exercised, such Warrants shall be cancelled.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Units to support its previously
announced transaction with a large and diversified Southeast Asian conglomerate and for general
corporate purposes.
"We are very pleased to have completed the first tranche of this financing, a meaningful milestone that
strengthens Gensource's balance sheet and reinforces our strategic momentum. The proceeds from this
closing, together with our anticipated second tranche, will allow us to continue advancing our previously
announced partnership in Southeast Asia and our shared commitment to sustainable potash
development. In addition, the funds will support ongoing work toward a Final Investment Decision (FID). I
would like to thank our team and financial partners for their continued support as we position the
Company to execute on our strategy and create long-term value for all stakeholders," said Mike
Ferguson.
In consideration for their services, certain persons (each, a "
Finder
") received a cash commission equal
to 6% of the gross proceeds of the Common Shares sold buy such Finder and compensation warrants to
purchase Common Shares equal to 6% of the total number of Units sold by such Finder, exercisable for
18 months from the first closing date at $0.15 per common share (the "
Broker Warrants
"). The Broker
Warrants are subject to the same Call Right of the Company as the Warrants, as described above. At
the first closing of the Offering, the Company paid $86,386.50 in cash commissions and issued 575,910
Broker Warrants.
The first closing of the Offering remains subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

the Tugaske Project; changes in general economic conditions and conditions in the financial markets;
the ability to find and source off-take agreements; changes in demand and prices for potash; litigation,
legislative, environmental and other judicial, regulatory, political and competitive developments;
technological and operational difficulties encountered in connection with Gensource's activities; and
other matters discussed in this news release and in filings made with securities regulators. This list is not
