TSXV: NEV

VANCOUVER, April 24, 2017 /CNW/ - Nevada Sunrise Gold Corp. ("Nevada Sunrise" or the "Company") (TSXV: NEV) announces that it has made an application to the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") to amend the term of an aggregate of 1,105,000 outstanding share purchase warrants, which were issued on May 13, 2014 (the "Warrants") in connection with a non-brokered private placement (see Nevada Sunrise news release dated May 13, 2014.)

The Company is seeking to extend the term of the Warrants for an additional two years, to May 13, 2019. The exercise price of the Warrants was previously reduced from $1.35 to $0.50, and the expiry date was previously extended to May 13, 2017 (see Nevada Sunrise news release March 30, 2015). The Warrants include an accelerated expiry clause such that the exercise period will be reduced to 30 days if, for any ten consecutive trading days during the unexpired term, the closing price of the common shares of Nevada Sunrise exceeds the exercise price of the Warrants by 25% or more ("the Premium Trading Days"). The reduced exercise period of 30 days will begin no more than 7 calendar days after the tenth Premium Trading Day.

The application to extend the expiry date of the Warrants to May 13, 2019 is subject to acceptance by the TSXV.
