by virtue of the exemptions contained in sections 5.5(b) and 5.7(1)(b) of MI 61-101.
Gaby property purchase option extension
Tribeca Resources is also pleased to announce that it has reached an agreement with the owners of the Gaby-Totito property located in the Coquimbo province of Chile to extend the purchase option agreement entered into between the company and the vendors on March 15, 2019, as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, under which the company has the option to purchase a 100-per-cent interest in the property.
Under the new extension agreement, the deadline of the final purchase payment due to the vendors under the purchase option agreement has been extended for a period of 18 months to Sept. 15, 2026, in consideration of the company paying the vendors $130,000 (U.S.); making a $50,000 (U.S.) advance payment on the final purchase payment upon execution of the extension agreement; and agreeing to make a 10-per-cent partial payment of the final purchase payment on the previous purchase option expiry date, being March 15, 2025.
The revised acquisition timetable significantly reduces the company's financing requirements in 2025 and provides Tribeca with additional time to focus on growing the Gaby discovery.
The payment terms in the purchase option agreement have been amended such that the remaining payments due, in order to exercise the purchase option, are as shown in the attached table.
Further, during the extension, the frequency of the exploration levy payments will change from annual to semi-annually. Cumulative exploration levy payments will remain capped at $500,000 (U.S.).
For further details on the purchase option agreement, please refer to the company's Oct. 24, 2022, filing statement with respect to the reverse takeover between Tribeca Resources Ltd. and Hansa Resources Ltd., located on SEDAR+.
