Toronto, Ontario – TheNewswire - April 24, 2023 – Tantalex Lithium Resources Corp. (CSE:TTX) – (FSE:DW8) – (OTC:TTLXF) (“Tantalex” or the “Corporation”), is pleased to announce that it has entered into a loan agreement with a director of the Corporation whereby it will receive an amount of USD$2,000,000 (the “Loan”) (the “Loan Agreement”).

The Corporation will receive the Loan in two tranches: USD$500,000 due by April 24, 2023 and the balance of USD$1,500,000 due by May 1, 2023. The loan is unsecured, bears an interest fee of 10% and is due forty-five (45) days from the date of the execution of the Loan Agreement. The proceeds from the loan will be used for general working capital and progressing on the completion of the Titan plant construction and advancing the Manono tailings preliminary economic assessment and feasibility study.

The Loan Agreement is a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). However, such participation would be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as the fair market value, nor the consideration for the loan, would exceed 25% of the Corporation’s market capitalization. The Corporation did not file a material change report in respect of the related party transaction at least 21 days prior to the closing of the Loan, which the Corporation deems reasonable in the circumstances in order to close the Loan transaction in an expeditious manner.

The Loan has been provided on reasonable commercial terms that are not less advantageous to the Corporation than if it were obtained from an arm's length party.
