Tudor Gold Announces Upsizing of Previously
Announced Private Placement Financing to
$15 Million, with Participation by Eric Sprott
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 14, 2021) - Tudor Gold Corp.
(TSXV: TUD) (the
"
Company
") is pleased to announce that, due to strong investor demand, it has agreed with Research
Capital Corporation, as lead agent and sole bookrunner (the "
Agent
"), on behalf of a syndicate,
including Canaccord Genuity Corp. and Red Cloud Securities Inc. (collectively, the "
Agents
"), in
connection with the previously announced best efforts, private placement offering (the "
Offering
") to
further increase the size of the Offering to $15,000,000. As a result of the significant demand and
increased size of the Offering, the option previously granted to the Agent to increase the size of the
Offering will no longer apply. The Offering will consist of a combination of: (i) common shares of the
Company (each, a
"Common Share
") at a price of $2.10 per Common Share, and (ii) and Common
Shares that will qualify as "flow-through shares" within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the
Income
Tax Act
(Canada) (the "
Tax Act
") (each, a "
FT Common Share
") at a price of $2.50 per FT Common
Share. Eric Sprott has indicated his intention to subscribe in the Offering.
The net proceeds from the sale of Common Shares will be used for the Company's ongoing exploration
drilling program, working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes. The gross
proceeds from the sale of FT Common Shares will be used to incur eligible "Canadian exploration
expenses" ("
CEE
") that are "flow-through mining expenditures" (as such term is defined in the Tax Act)
related to exploration expenses on the Company's Treaty Creek flagship property, located in Golden
Triangle of northwestern British Columbia, as permitted under the Tax Act. The Company will incur the
CEE on or before December 31, 2022 and renounce such CEE to the purchasers of the FT Common
Shares with an effective date of no later than December 31, 2021.
The Common Shares and FT Common Shares to be issued under the Offering will be offered by way of
private placement in each of the provinces of Canada, and such other jurisdictions as may be
determined by the Company, in each case, pursuant to applicable exemptions from the prospectus
requirements under applicable securities laws.
The Offering is scheduled to close on or about the week of November 1, 2021, or such other date as
agreed upon between the Company and the Agents (the "
Closing
") and is subject to certain conditions
including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals (including the approval of the TSX
Venture Exchange). The Common Shares and FT Common Shares to be issued under the Offering will
have a hold period of four months and one day from the Closing.
In connection with the Offering, the Agents will receive an aggregate cash fee equal to 6.0% of the gross
proceeds from the Offering, including in respect of any exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. In addition,
the Company will grant the Agents non-transferable compensation warrants (the "
Compensation
Warrants
") entitling the Agents to purchase a number of Common Shares equal to 6.0% of the total
number of Common Shares and FT Common Shares sold under the Offering (including in respect of any
exercise of the Over-Allotment Option). Each Compensation Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to
purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $2.50 per Common Share for a period of 24
months following the Closing.
The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "
U.S. Securities Act
"), or any state securities laws, and
accordingly, may not be offered or sold within the United States except in compliance with the
registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities requirements or
pursuant to exemptions therefrom. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation
to buy any securities in any jurisdiction.

conditions and timeliness regulatory approvals.
Although the Company has attempted to identify
important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the
forward-looking information or implied by forward-looking information, there may be other factors that
cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-
looking information and statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could
differ materially from those anticipated, estimated or intended. Accordingly, readers should not place
undue reliance on forward-looking statements or information.
