(the “Company” or “Vatic”) is pleased to announce that it has met the requirements to be listed
as a TSX Venture Tier 2 Company. Therefore, effective at the open of trading, Monday

Company’s Tier classification will change from NEX to Tier 2.
Effective at the opening, Monday February 5, 2018, the trading symbol for the Company will

The Company is also pleased to announce that, further to its November 16, 2017 release, it has
closed its non-brokered private placement financing with gross proceeds of $497,628.30,
consisting of 9,952,566 units (“Units”) at a price of $0.05 per Unit. Each Unit includes one (1)
full Common Share Purchase Warrant exercisable at $0.10 for 12 months from the date of
issuance.
All securities issued in the placement are subject to a four-month hold period. The proceeds
raised from the financing will be used to conduct further development on its potash licenses in
Thailand held by its subsidiary Saksrithai Development Co. and for working capital purposes.
$52,500 of the Financing is being distributed pursuant to BC Instrument 45 -536 with the
remainder to be distributed under other exemptions.
Finder’s fees have been paid on the financing in accordance with regulatory policies.
The financing was effected with three insiders of the Company subscribing for 2,300,000 Units
on completion of the private placement, for aggregate subscription proceeds of $115,000 that
portion of the financing a “related party transaction” as such term is defined under Multilateral
Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-
101″). The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority approval
requirements set out in MI 61 - 101. The Company is exempt from the formal valuation
requirement of MI 61-101 under sections 5.5(a) and (b) of MI 61 -101 in respect of the
transaction as the fair market value of the transaction, insofar as it involves the interested party,
is not more than the 25% of the Company’s market capitalization, and no securities of the
Company are listed or quoted for trading on prescribed stock exchanges or stock markets.
Additionally, the Company is exempt from minority shareholder approval under sections
5.7(1)(a) and (b) of MI 61-101 as, in addition to the foregoing, (i) neither the fair market value of
the Units nor the consideration received in respect thereof from interested party exceeds
$2,500,000, (ii) the Company has one or more independent directors who are not employees of
the Company, and (iii) all of the independent directors have approved the transaction. Material
change reports were not filed 21 days prior to the closing of the financing because insider
participation had not been established at the time the financing was announced.
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
Nasim Tyab, Director.
