PUMA Exploration Completes the sale of Little Stull Lake Gold Property to BWR Exploration Inc.

TORONTO, May 19, 2021 – PUMA Exploration (TSX.V: PUMA) (“PUMA” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has completed the sale of 100% interest of the Little Stull Lake Property to BWR Exploration Inc. (TSX.V: BWR) (“BWR”) . The original Sale Agreement was first entered into with BWR on October 5, 2016, involving cash payments and the issuance of up to 10 million common shares of BWR. The original Sale Agreement was amended October 7, 2019, and further amended May 4, 2021 (collectively “the Agreement”). The main terms of the original Sale Agreement were disclosed in a news release dated October 7, 2016.

Pursuant to the Agreement BWR made the following payments to Puma:

• Aggregate cash payments of $150,000; and
• Aggregate share issuances of 6,000,000 common shares of the Company, with an additional 2,000,000 common shares to be issued.

On October 7, 2019, Puma and BWR agreed to amend the exploration expenditure requirement under the original Sale Agreement by reducing the milestone / penalty payments from 5,000,000 to 4,000,000 common shares of BWR and extending the expenditure term from October 5, 2019 to October 5, 2020.

Due to various factors including changes to work permit issuance policies by the Crown in their ongoing and evolving consultation protocol process with Indigenous Communities, and exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, BWR did not meet the $1,500,000 spend requirement by October 5, 2020. Consequently, the remaining 4,000,000 common shares became payable to Puma as of October 5, 2020. Puma agreed to defer this payment until early 2021 and then reached a further agreement with BWR dated May 4, 2021 whereby BWR would issue 2,000,000 common shares to Puma in full and final payment of all remaining consideration payable under the Agreement. Puma retains a 1% net smelter royalty on the Little Stull Lake Property. Tanqueray Exploration Ltd. (or its assignee) also retains a 1% net smelter royalty on the Property, half of which is purchasable at any time for $1 million and the second half is purchasable for $2 million.
