Victoria Gold: Response to ATAC Resources

14.02.2023  |  GlobeNewswire

WHITEHORSE, Feb. 14, 2023 - Victoria Gold Corp. (TSX-VGCX) ("Victoria" or the "Company") has noted a response from ATAC Resources Ltd. ("ATAC") regarding Victoria's proposal to acquire ATAC for an 85% premium to ATAC's closing share price on February 10, 2023 (the "Proposal"). Victoria wishes to clarify certain facts contained in ATAC's press release related to the conditionality of its Proposal.

ATAC has stated that Victoria's Proposal "contained numerous deal conditions". Victoria believes the conditions included in its Proposal to ATAC are standard and customary for a transaction of this nature. In addition, Victoria's Proposal did not include any financing requirements.

In its January 12, 2023 Proposal to ATAC's Board of Directors, Victoria wrote: "We have devoted significant time and resources to the evaluation of this opportunity and are highly motivated to execute the Proposed Transaction on an expedited basis, which we view as a compelling value proposition for both stakeholders of ATAC and Victoria."

Victoria also noted: "We are prepared to promptly allocate the resources necessary to complete our confirmatory due diligence and have a team assembled for short-notice deployment upon your advisement. We anticipate that the balance of our confirmatory due diligence can be completed quickly, and that we can implement the Proposed Transaction in a relatively short time frame."

Victoria reminds the Board of Directors of ATAC and ATAC shareholders that its Proposal is open for acceptance until 5:00 pm (Vancouver time) on Friday, February 17, 2023. Following this, Victoria's Proposal to ATAC will expire.
