18.01.2022  |  CNW
TORONTO, Jan. 18, 2022 - Western Exploration Inc. ("Western Exploration" or the "Company"), a Nevada-focused previous metals exploration company, is pleased to announce that its common shares (the "Common Shares") are expected to begin trading through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") effective at the opening of markets on Wednesday, January 19, 2022, under the symbol "WEX". Please refer to the news release of Western Exploration dated December 22, 2021 (entitled Western Completes "Go Public" Transaction Via Reverse Takeover of Crystal Peak and Launches "Western Exploration Inc.") for additional details of the recently-completed reverse takeover transaction of Western Exploration (the "RTO").

Escrowed Securities

In connection with the completion of the RTO, an aggregate of 20,812,796 Common Shares (collectively, the "Escrowed Securities") held by certain Principals (as defined in the policies of the Exchange) of the Company (collectively, the "Escrowed Securityholders") have been deposited into escrow with the TSX Trust Company, as escrow agent, pursuant to a "Tier 2 Surplus Security" escrow agreement dated December 22, 2021 (the "Escrow Agreement") among the Company, the TSX Trust Company, as escrow agent, and the Escrowed Securityholders. Pursuant to Policy 5.4 - Escrow, Vendor Consideration and Resale Restrictions of the Exchange, the Escrowed Securities will be released from escrow over a 36-month period, with 5% of the Escrowed Securities initially released on January 17, 2022, being the date of the final bulletin of the Exchange in respect of the RTO.

The following table sets forth the details of the Escrowed Securityholders and the Escrowed Securities:

In connection with the RTO, Agnico Eagle Mines Limited ("Agnico") and the Company previously entered into an investor rights agreement dated December 22, 2021 (the "Investor Rights Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company granted to Agnico, among others, a right (the "Nomination Right") to nominate one person (and in the case of an increase in the size of the board of directors of the Company to eight or more directors, two persons) to the board of directors of the Company, provided that Agnico maintains certain ownership thresholds in the Company and satisfies certain other conditions. On January 18, 2022, Agnico and the Company amended and restated the Investor Rights Agreement to replace the Nomination Right with certain observer rights, which will allow Agnico to designate a person to attend and observe meetings of the board of directors of the Company, provided that Agnico maintains certain ownership thresholds in the Company and satisfies certain other conditions. As a result of the amendments to the Investor Rights Agreement, Agnico is no longer a Principal (as defined in the policies of the Exchange) of the Company, and the Common Shares held by Agnico are not subject to escrow under the Escrow Agreement.

The foregoing disclosure in respect of the Escrow Agreement, the Escrowed Securityholders, and the Escrowed Securities replaces and supersedes all of the Company's prior disclosures in respect thereof, to the extent of any inconsistency.
