VANCOUVER, BC, Jan. 27,
2025 /CNW/ - Tajiri Resources Corp. (the
"Company") (TSXV: TAJ) is pleased to announce that it has
agreed issue an aggregate of 4,030,640 common shares of the Company
(the "Debt Shares") to certain of its officers and a service
provider in exchange for the cancellation of $201,532 of outstanding debt relating to fees
owing to said recipients. The Debt Shares are being issued at
deemed price of $0.05 per Debt Share
(the "Shares for Debt Transaction"). The Board of Directors
of the Company has determined that the Shares for Debt Transaction
is in the best interests of the Company.
Of the total $201,532 debt being
converted, $120,000 represents
amounts owed to insiders of the Company who are participating in
the Shares for Debt Transaction. The participation of certain
insiders, being "related parties" of the Company means that the
Shares for Debt Transaction is considered to be a "related party
transaction" of the Company for purposes of Multilateral Instrument
61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special
Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company may, however,
complete the Shares for Debt Transaction in reliance on exemptions
available under MI 61-101 from the formal valuation and minority
approval requirements of MI 61-101. Specifically, the Shares for
Debt Transaction is exempt from the formal valuation requirement in
Section 5.4 of MI 61-101 in reliance on Section 5.5(b) of MI 61-101
as the Company is not listed on a specified market within the
meaning of MI 61-101. Additionally, the Shares for Debt Transaction
is exempt from the minority approval requirement in Section 5.6 of
MI 61-101 in reliance on Section 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 insofar as
neither the fair market value of the subject matter of, nor the
fair market value of the consideration for, the Shares for Debt
Transaction insofar as it involves (or is expected to involve)
"interested parties", exceeds 25% of the Company's market
capitalization.
Closing of the Shares for Debt Transaction is subject to
customary closing conditions, including the approval of the TSX
Venture Exchange ("TSXV"). The Debt Shares to be issued
pursuant to the Shares for Debt Transaction will be subject to a
hold period of four months and one day following the date of
issuance, in accordance with applicable securities laws and TSXV
policies.
The Company is also pleased to provide an update on the
acquisition of the Yono Gold Property (the "Project"), as
outlined in its news release dated October
9, 2024. To clarify, the transaction has not yet closed, no
payments or other consideration have been made, and the Company
does not currently hold any ownership interest in the property. The
Company is actively working to satisfy all TSXV requirements to
secure final approval.
The acquisition of the Project involves issuing shares to
certain insiders of the Company who are participating in the
transaction. As these individuals are classified as "related
parties" under MI 61-10, the transaction is considered a "related
party transaction." The Company intends to rely on exemptions
available under MI 61-101, which allow the transaction to proceed
without a formal valuation or minority shareholder approval.
Specifically, the Project qualifies for an exemption from the
formal valuation requirement under Section 5.5(b) of MI 61-101, as
the Company is not listed on a specified market. It is also exempt
from the minority approval requirement under Section 5.7(1)(a) of
MI 61-101, as the fair market value of the transaction and any
consideration involving "interested parties" represent less than
25% of the Company's market capitalization.
The Company remains fully committed to advancing the Project in
compliance with all regulatory requirements and will provide timely
updates as further progress is made.
