Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 3, 2025) - Apex Resources Inc. (TSXV: APX) (OTCID: SLMLF) ("Apex" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that further to its news release dated July 25, 2025, it has closed the first tranche (the "First Tranche") of its non-brokered financing (the "Financing") with the issuance of 8,000,000 non-flow-through units (the "NFT Units") at a price of $0.05 per NFT Unit for gross proceeds of $400,000.
Each NFT Unit is comprised of one common share of the Company and one-half (1/2) non-transferrable common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company (a "Warrant Share") at a price of $0.10 per Warrant Share for a period of two years expiring on August 29, 2027 (the "Expiry Date"), subject to the Acceleration Provision (as defined below).
If at any time prior to the Expiry Date, the Company's common shares trade at or above a price of $0.20 per common share on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") for a period of 10 consecutive trading days commencing on December 31, 2025, the Company may, at its option, accelerate the expiry of the Warrants by issuing a press release announcing such acceleration (the "Acceleration Press Release"), and, in such case, the Expiry Date shall be deemed to be the 30th day following the date of issuance of the Acceleration Press Release (the "Acceleration Provision").
The securities issued pursuant to the First Tranche are subject to a four-months and one day hold period expiring December 30, 2025.
Certain insiders of the Company acquired $150,000 of the Financing and as such a portion of the Financing is considered a related party transaction as defined in the Exchange's Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company is relying upon the exemption from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the shares subscribed for, nor the consideration paid for the shares, exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
Proceeds from the First Tranche will be used to fund the Company's projects and for general working capital purposes. No finder's fees were paid in connection with the closing of the First Tranche.
The Company intends to continue with the remainder of the Financing as announced on July 25, 2025. Completion of subsequent tranche(s) of the Financing remains subject to approval by the Exchange and all securities issued under any subsequent tranche(s) will be subject to a four month and one day hold period calculated from the date of closing of such subsequent tranche(s).
