NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION, DISTRIBUTION OR DISSEMINATION DIRECTLY, OR INDIRECTLY, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES.

VANCOUVER, May 02, 2019 - Ascot Resources Ltd. (TSX.V: AOT, OTCQX:AOTVF) (“Ascot” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that, subject to regulatory approval, it will undertake a best efforts combination of a brokered (C$8,500,000) and non-brokered (C$1,500,000) private placement offering of units (the “Units”) and common shares which qualify as “flow-through shares” (within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) (the “Flow-Through Shares” and together with the Units, the “Securities”) to accredited investors for aggregate gross proceeds of C$10,000,000 (the “Offering”). Each Unit is offered at a price of C$0.70 and includes a common share (a “Common Share”) and a common share purchase warrant at an exercise price of C$0.95 per common share exercisable within one year of the closing date of the Offering. Each Flow-Through Share is offered at a price of C$0.76. Additionally, the Company will grant the Agents (as defined below) an option, exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time up to 48 hours before the closing of the Offering, to purchase up to an additional 15% of the Offering. The Offering is subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”).

In connection with the Offering, the Company will pay, subject to TSXV approval, a cash fee of 5% of the gross proceeds raised by the Agents and finders and issue non-transferable warrants (“Compensation Warrants”) equal to 5% of the Units and Flow-Through Shares sold pursuant to the efforts of the Agents and finders. The Compensation Warrants will be exercisable at C$0.95 per Compensation Warrant into Common Shares of the Company for a period of one year from the closing date of the Offering. The brokered offering will be conducted by a syndicate of Agents led by Sprott Capital Partners LP (the “Agents”).

The proceeds from the Offering will be primarily used for exploration and resource upgrade drilling, permitting, engineering and economic studies and for general corporate and working capital purposes. The gross proceeds from the issuance of Flow-Through Shares will be used for “Canadian exploration expenses”, and will qualify as “flow-through mining expenditures” as those terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada), which will be renounced to the initial purchasers of the Flow-Through Shares with an effective date no later than December 31, 2019 in an aggregate amount not less than the gross proceeds raised from the issue of the Flow-Through Shares.

The Securities, the Compensation Warrants, and the underlying securities thereof, issued in the Offering will be subject to a hold period expiring four months and one day from the closing date of the Offering.

The closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or before May 21, 2019 and is subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals.

The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for account or benefit of, U.S. Persons (as defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act) unless registered under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws, or an exemption from such registration requirements is available.
