May 8, 2024 – Vancouver, Canada – Turnium Technology Group Inc. (TSXV: TTGI) (FSE: E48) (“Turnium” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce that, further to its news release dated March 6, 2024, the Company has amended its previously announced shares for debt transaction such that the Company will settle outstanding debt in the amounts of approximately C$345,500.00 (vs. C$600,000 previously announced) (the “Debt”) owing to certain directors and arm’s-length creditors of the Company, by issuing up to 4,935,710 common shares in the capital of the Company (vs. 8,567,857 shares previously announced) (the “Common Shares”) at a deemed price of C$0.07 per Common Share (the “Shares-for-Debt Transaction”), to the creditors. The Board of Directors has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to settle the outstanding Debt by the issuance of Common Shares in order to preserve the Company’s cash for ongoing operations.
Closing of the Shares-for-Debt Transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The Company intends to close the Shares-for-Debt Transaction in the month of May, 2024. The Common Shares to be issued pursuant to the Shares-for-Debt Transaction will be subject to a hold period of four (4) months and one (1) day from the date of issuance.
As certain directors and officers of the Company (the “Related Parties”) are creditors having an aggregate of C$320,000 of the Debt settled pursuant to the Shares-for-Debt Transaction, the Shares-for-Debt Transaction is considered to be a “related party transaction” under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101“). All of the independent directors of the Company, acting in good faith, have considered the Shares-For-Debt Transaction and have determined that the fair market value of the Common Shares being issued to Related Parties and the consideration being paid is reasonable. The Company intends to rely on the exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(b) and 5.7(a) of MI 61-101.
