Labrador Resources Inc. (Formerly Labrador Technologies Inc.) Closes Change of Business Transactions

CALGARY, AB / ACCESSWIRE / February 6, 2023 / Labrador Resources Inc. (the "Corporation" or "Labrador") (TSXV:LTX) is pleased to announce that, further to its press releases dated April 5, 2022, April 6, 2022 and November 2, 2022, it has completed the previously announced transactions which collectively constitute the Corporation's change of business (the "Change of Business"). As a result, the Corporation has transitioned into an oil and gas issuer whose common shares are listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV").

Asset Acquisition

On February 2, 2023, as part of the Change of Business, the Corporation acquired interests in an oil and gas property (the "Atlee Buffalo Property") located in the Atlee Buffalo area of Alberta (the "Acquisition") for a purchase price of $782,000. Pursuant to the Acquisition, the purchase price was paid through (a) cash payments in the aggregate amount of $200,000, (b) the issuance by the Corporation of a convertible debenture in the principal amount of $350,000, and (c) the issuance by the Corporation of a promissory note in the amount of $232,000.

Private Placements

As part of the Change of Business, on February 2, 2023 the Corporation closed the previously disclosed private placements (the "Offering") of common shares of the Corporation ("Common Shares") and "flow-through" Common Shares ("Flow-Through Shares"), issuing: (a) 4,000,000 Common Shares, at a price of $0.05 per Common Share, for aggregate proceeds of $200,000, and (b) 7,200,000 Flow-Through Shares, at a price of $0.05 per Flow-Through Share, for aggregate proceeds of $360,000. The Common Shares and Flow-Through Shares issued under the Offering are subject to a hold period that will expire on June 3, 2023. No warrants or finder's fees were paid in relation to the Offering. The proceeds of the Offering, together with advances under the previously disclosed credit facility of the Corporation, are intended to be used to undertake reactivation activities on one well forming part of the Atlee Buffalo Property as well as to drill one additional horizontal well thereon.

Name Change and Resumption of Trading

In connection with the Change of Business, the Corporation changed its name from "Labrador Technologies Inc." to "Labrador Resources Inc." It is expected that the Common Shares will begin trading on the facilities of the TSXV, under the same trading symbol "LTX.V", within the next week. Resumption of trading remains subject to receipt of final acceptance of the Change of Business from the TSXV.

Director Appointment

Upon closing of the Change of Business, Jeffrey M. Graw was appointed a director of the Corporation.

Option Grant

The Corporation advises that immediately following closing of the Change of Business, the Corporation granted options ("Options") to its officers and directors to purchase a total of 625,000 Common Shares, at a price of $0.05 per share. The Options are exercisable for a period of five (5) years from the date of grant, and contain a vesting provision whereby one-half of the Options vest immediately and one-half vest one (1) year from the date of grant.

Insider Participation in the Offering

Kaan Camlioglu, a director and officer of the Corporation, acquired Flow-Through Shares under the Offering and therefore the Offering is deemed to be a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101-Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). Such participation is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the Flow-Through Shares acquired by the interested party, nor the consideration for the Flow-Through Shares paid by such interested party, exceed 25% of the Corporation's market capitalization. The Corporation did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the closing of the Offering as the participation therein by Mr. Camlioglu was not settled until shortly prior to the closing of the Offering.

Prior to the completion of the Offering, Mr. Camlioglu did not own, directly or indirectly, any Common Shares or convertible securities of the Corporation. Upon completion of the Offering, Mr. Camlioglu now owns 1,400,000 Common Shares, representing approximately 5.7% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, together with 250,000 Options.

Technical Report

A copy of the evaluation of the property that is the subject of the Acquisition, which was performed by Boury Global Petroleum Associates and is compliant with National Instrument 51-101, is available for review under the Corporation's profile on Sedar at www.sedar.com.
