Vancouver, BC - TheNewswire - November 15, 2021 - Global Energy Metals Corporation (TSXV:GEMC) | (OTC:GBLEF) | (FSE:5GE1) (“Global Energy Metals”, the “Company” and/or “GEMC”), a company involved in investment exposure to the battery metals supply chain, is pleased to announce that the Company will make an application to the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) for approval of the implementation of a proposed early warrant exercise incentive program (the “Incentive Program”) intended to encourage the early exercise of up to 4,794,000 outstanding share purchase warrants (the “Eligible Warrants”) of the Company.  

Proceeds of the Incentive Program will be used to fund exploration expansion programs at the Company’s projects in both Nevada and Idaho, USA and for general working capital.  For more information on these programs please refer to the news releases dated October 18, 2021 and September 9, 2021.  

Mitchell Smith, President and CEO, stated:

“This is an opportunity for in-the-money warrant holders to exercise their Warrants early and receive a strong incentive to do so. It also provides additional capital to continue the advancement of the Company’s corporate interests including expanding the existing work programs at the battery mineral rich Lovelock Cobalt Nickel Copper Mine and Treasure Box projects in Nevada and the Monument Peak Copper-Silver-Gold project in Idaho.”

The Eligible Warrants were originally issued by the Company as part of units of the Company issued pursuant to the Company’s private placement financing completed on September 29, 2020. Each whole Eligible Warrant is currently exercisable to acquire one common share of the Company at a price of $0.15 per share. Eligible Warrants will expire on September 7 and September 28, 2023.

In order to encourage the early exercise of such Eligible Warrants, the Company will be seeking approval of the Exchange to an amendment to the terms of the Eligible Warrants to enable the holders to receive an Incentive Warrant (as defined and described below) for each whole Eligible Warrant exercised on or prior to 4:00 p.m. (PST) for a period of 30 days from receipt of Exchange acceptance (the “New Warrant Expiry Date”) at the price of $0.15 per Eligible Warrant.

A portion of the Eligible Warrants are held by insiders of the Company. Participation by any such insiders in the Incentive Program may constitute a related party transaction pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company is exempt from the formal valuation requirement pursuant to subsections 5.5(a) and (b) of MI 61-101, and from the minority approval requirement pursuant to subsection 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101.

Subject to the receipt of approval of the Exchange to the Incentive Program and the resulting amendment to the Eligible Warrants, each holder of a whole Eligible Warrant who elects to exercise their Eligible Warrant at the price of $0.15 on or prior to 4:00 p.m. (PST) on the New Warrant Expiry Date will receive:

• - the common shares in the capital of the Company to which they are otherwise entitled under the terms of the Eligible Warrants; and

  - for every one (1) Eligible Warrant exercised, one (1) additional common share purchase warrant of the Company (each, an “Incentive Warrant”) entitling the holder to acquire an additional common share of the Company at a price of $0.40 per share, or such other exercise price as may be acceptable to the Exchange, for a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of issuance of such Incentive Warrant. The Incentive Warrants, and any shares issued upon exercise thereof, will be subject to a four-month hold period from the date of issuance of such warrants.

The Company will issue a further news release confirming the terms and conditions of the proposed Incentive Program upon receipt of approval from the Exchange.

To the extent that holders of Eligible Warrants take advantage of the opportunity to exercise their Eligible Warrants early, this will strengthen the Company’s current cash position. In the case of holders of Eligible Warrants who elect not to exercise their Eligible Warrants on or prior to 4:00 p.m. (PST) on the New Warrant Expiry Date, such Eligible Warrants will continue to be exercisable for common shares of the Company on the same terms that previously existed.

The securities being offered will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended and may not be offered or sold within the United States absent registration or an exemption from the registration requirements. This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities in the United States.
