Nevada Organic Phosphate Closes Fourth Tranche of Unit Offering
Vancouver, British Columbia, August 20, 202 4. Nevada Organic Phosphate Inc.
(“NOP” or the “Company) (CSE: NOP), a B .C. based company engaged in the
exploration, in Nevada, for organic, sedimentary raw rock phosphate, is pleased to
announce that, further to its news releases dated March 18, 2024, June 6, 2024 and July
23, 2024 , it has closed the fourth tranche of its previously announced non -brokered
private placement (the “Offering”) for gross aggregate proceeds of $75,000 (the “Fourth
Tranche”) through the issuance of 1,500,000 units of the Company (each, a “Unit”) at a
price of $0.05 per Unit.
Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a “Share”)
and one Share purchase warrant (each, a “ Warrant”), with each Warrant entitling the
holder thereof to purchase one additional Share (each, a “ Warrant Share”) at a price of
$0.10 per Warrant Share for a period of sixty months following the date of issuance.
The aggregate proceeds of the Fourth Tranche are anticipated to be used for
advancement of the Company’s Murdock Property and for general working capital. No
fees were paid in connection with closing of the Fourth Tranche.
All securities issued in connection with the Fourth Tranche are subject to a statutory hold
period expiring four months and one day after the date of issuance, as set out in National
Instrument 45 ‐102 – Resale of Securities . The Offering remains subject to regulatory
approval and the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”).
None of the securities sold in connection with the Fourth Tranche have been and will not
be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and no such
securities may be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable
exemption from the registration requirements. This news release shall not constitute an
offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities
in the United States or any jurisdiction in which such off er, solicitation or sale would be
unlawful.
Compensation Share Issuance
The Company also announces that it has issued 2,000,000 common shares of the
Company as bonus compensation (the "Compensation Shares") to Robin Dow, CEO
and Garry Smith, P. Geo. . The Compensation Shares are being issued equally, at a
deemed price of $0.05 per share, in accordance with policies of the Canadian Securities
Exchange.
The shares are being issued to Mr. Dow as compensation for the 12 years he has worked
for no compensation, to March of 2023. The shares to Mr. Smith are in recognition of the
outstanding work he has done in the last year to expand the land package from one to
four leases, and for the detailed definition of the geological opportunity at Murdock
Mountain. All Compensation Shares issued are subject to a four (4) month and a day hold
period.
The issuance of the Compensation Shares constitutes a "related party transaction" as
this term is defined in Multilateral Instrument 61 -101: Protection of Minority
Securityholders in Special Transactions ("MI 61 -101"). The issuance of the Shares was
exempt from the valuation requirement of MI 61 -101 by the virtue of the exemption
contained in section 5.5(b) as the Company’s Shares are not listed on a specified market
and from the minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61 -101 by virtue of the
exemption contained in Section 5.7(1)(a) as the value of the Shares issued did not exceed
25% of the Company’s market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change
report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Compensation Shares
transaction as the details and amounts of the bonuses were not finalized until closer to
the closing and the Company wished to close the transaction as soon as practicable,
which the Company deems reasonable.
Nevada Organic Phosphate Inc.
NOP is a junior exploration company with a sedimentary rock phosphate property (the
“Murdock Property”) hosting a nearly flat lying sedimentary bed of known phosphate
mineralization in NE Nevada.
The increasing interest in organic and sustainable agriculture practices has contributed to
the demand for organic fertilizers, including those derived from rock phosphate. Organic
rock phosphate is often marketed as a fertilizer that not only provides phosphorus but also
contributes to overall soil health.
The Issuer aims to be one of the only certified organic rock phosphate producers with
large scale potential in North America. The Murdock Property is situated adjacent to a
main highway and the rail head to California.
