SHELBURNE, March 18, 2019 - Black Bull Resources Inc. (NEX: BBS.H) ("Black Bull" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has received conditional approval from the TSX Venture Exchange Inc. (the "Exchange" or "TSXV") regarding the previously announced arm's length Change of Business transaction, as defined in Policy 5.2 of the TSXV, (the "Transaction") with a group of investment and business professionals (collectively, the “Vendors”). The Transaction, which is subject to regulatory and final closing conditions, will see Black Bull transition from a Resource Issuer to an Investment Issuer within the meaning of such terms as defined in the policies of the TSXV.

For further details on the Transaction, please see the Company’s press releases of May 25, 2018 and September 26, 2017.

As a condition of completion of the Transaction (the “Closing”), the Company and Vendors are required to jointly complete a private placement financing (the "Offering") of not less than $3.0 million. Under the Offering, the Company is contemplating issuing up to 12,000,000 common shares in the capital of Black Bull at a price of $0.10 per common share, and a minimum of 180,000 series A preferred shares (the “Preferred Shares”) at a price of $10.00 per Preferred Share. The minimum gross proceeds of the Offering of $3.0 million will be used for investment and general corporate and working capital purposes. To date the Company has closed on approximately $1.3 million of the Offering, and has commitments of a further $1.7 million. Final closing on the financing is expected to occur on or before April 10^th, 2019.

The Transaction satisfies the requirements of Section 4.1 of TSXV Policy 5.2, as the Transaction is an arm's length transaction involving an issuer listed on the NEX ("NEX" is a separate trading board of TSX Venture Exchange). The Company has received a waiver from the sponsorship requirements pursuant to Section 3.4(a)(ii) of Policy 2.2 of the Exchange.


Investee Companies Development

Post-Closing, Black Bull will be an Investment Issuer, which would manage a portfolio of corporate assets (the “Portfolio”), which are included in the Transaction (see the Company’s press release dated May 25, 2018). The Company continues to accelerate its involvement in the Portfolio in order to drive an incremental increase in value after completion of the Transaction. The proposed new management team (as outlined in the Company’s September 26, 2017 press release) has worked to significantly advance the value of the Portfolio, and there is significant additional growth planned for the Portfolio that management is hopeful will have dramatic revenue, cash flow and earnings growth throughout the second half of 2019.

Black Bull has used a portion of the Offering proceeds to make initial investments into each of Previcare and Foamtech to preserve the terms of the investment and to inject capital in each of those companies to capture key opportunities.
