Gensource Potash Announces Mailing of Meeting Materials and Proposed
Amendments to its Articles
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN
THE UNITED STATES
SASKATOON, Saskatchewan & LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 26, 2023--Gensource
Potash Corporation (“Gensource” or the “Company”) (AIM/TSXV: GSP), a fertilizer
development company focused on sustainable potash production, today announced that it has
mailed an information circular and related meeting materials in connection with the upcoming
annual and special meeting of the shareholders of the Company (“Shareholders”) to be held on
June 28, 2023 at 9:00 a.m. (Saskatchewan Time) (the “Meeting”).
At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to consider, among other items of business, a special
resolution approving articles of amendment of the Company (the “Amended Articles”).
The Amended Articles amend the existing articles of the Company by authorizing the directors
of the Company to appoint one or more directors between meetings of Shareholders, which
directors shall hold office for a term expiring not later than the close of the next annual meeting
of Shareholders following this appointment, provided that the total number of directors so
appointed may not exceed one-third of the number of directors elected at the previous annual
meeting of Shareholders (the “Board Authorization”).
The Company may identify an individual who could make a valuable contribution to the
Company as a director in between annual meetings of the Shareholders. The adoption of the
Board Authorization would permit the Company to capitalize on opportunities to invite
individuals to take the position of director without first creating a vacancy by requiring a current
director to resign. By adopting the Board Authorization, it will be possible to more quickly take
advantage of opportunities to augment the board of directors of the Company. At the same time,
given the limitation on the number of directors who can be added between meetings and the
expiry of the term of such directors at the next annual meeting, the Shareholders maintain their
control over the composition of the board of directors of the Company.
Management recommends that the Shareholders vote for the special resolution which authorizes
and approves the Amended Articles.
The Amended Articles will only be effective if passed by a special resolution of Shareholders
holding at least 66⅔% of the common shares of the Company present in person or by proxy at
the Meeting and entitled to vote at the Meeting.
The TSX Venture Exchange has conditionally approved the Amended Articles. The Amended
Articles remain subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
About Gensource
Gensource is a fertilizer development company based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and is on
track to become the next fertilizer production company in that province. With a modular and
environmentally leading approach to potash production, Gensource believes its technical and
business model will be the future of the industry. Gensource operates under a business plan that
has two key components: (1) vertical integration with the market to ensure that all production
capacity built is directed, and pre-sold, to a specific market, eliminating market-side risk; and (2)
technical innovation which will allow for a modular and economic potash production facility,
that demonstrates environmental leadership within the industry, producing no salt tailings,
therefore eliminating decommissioning risk, and requiring no surface brine ponds, thereby
removing the single largest and negative environmental aspect of potash mining.

Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This news release may contain forward looking information and Gensource cautions readers that
forward-looking information is based on certain assumptions and risk factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from the expectations of Gensource included in this news
release. This news release includes certain “forward-looking statements”, which often, but not
always, can be identified by the use of words such as “believes”, “anticipates”, “expects”,
“estimates”, “may”, “could”, “would”, “will”, or “plan”. These statements are based on
information currently available to Gensource and Gensource provides no assurance that the
actual results will meet management’s expectations.
Forward looking statements include estimates and statements with respect to Gensource’s future
plans, objectives or goals, to the effect that Gensource or management expects a stated condition
or result to occur, including any offering of securities by Gensource. Since forward-looking
statements are based on assumptions and address future events and conditions, by their very
nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from
those currently anticipated in such statements for many reasons such as: failure to finance the
Tugaske Project or other projects on terms which are economic or at all; failure to settle a
definitive joint venture agreement with a party and advance and finance 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.
