(TSXV: TGM) (OTCQX:TGLDF) (FRA:0702) (“Trillium Gold” or the "Company" – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/trillium-gold-mines-inc/ ) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Red Cloud Securities Inc. (the "Agent") to act as sole agent and bookrunner in connection with a best efforts, private placement (the "Offering") for gross proceeds of up to C$3,500,000 from the sale of any combination of units of the Company (each, a "Unit") at a price of C$0.20 per Unit and flow-through units of the Company (each, a "FT Unit", and collectively with the Units, the “Offered Securities”) at a price of C$0.225 per FT Unit.

Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company (each a “Unit Share”) and one half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”).  Each FT Unit will consist of one common share of the Company to be issued as a “flow-through share” within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada), (each a “FT Share”) and one half of one Warrant. Each Warrant shall entitle the holder to purchase one common share of the Company (each, a “Warrant Share”) at a price of C$0.30 at any time on or before that date which is 24 months after the closing date of the Offering. 

The Agent will have an option, exercisable in full or in part, up to 48 hours prior to the closing of the Offering, to sell up to an additional C$750,000 in any combination of Offered Securities at the offering prices (the "Agent’s Option").

Proceeds from the sale of FT Shares will be used to incur "Canadian exploration expenses" as defined in subsection 66.1(6) of the Income Tax Act and "flow-through mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 127(9) of the Income Tax Act. Such proceeds will be renounced to the subscribers with an effective date not later than December 31, 2022, in the aggregate amount of not less than the total amount of gross proceeds raised from the issue of FT Shares.

The Company intends to use the proceeds raised from the Offering for exploration of the Company’s Red Lake properties, as well as for general working capital purposes. The Offering is scheduled to close on or around September 22, 2022 and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The Unit Shares, FT Shares and Warrant Shares will have a hold period ending on the day that is four months and one day following the closing date.

As consideration for their services, the Agent will receive a cash commission of 6.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering and broker warrants in an amount equal to 6.0% of the aggregate number of Offered Securities sold pursuant to the Offering. Each broker warrant will be exercisable to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of C$0.20 for a period of 24 months from the closing date of the Offering.

The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States 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.
