Revival Gold Inc. (TSXV: RVG, OTCQB: RVLGF) (“Revival Gold” or the “Company” – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/revival-gold-inc/), a growth‐focused gold exploration and development company, announces the completion of arrangements to defer commitments related to the acquisition of the Company’s Beartrack (“Beartrack”) and Arnett (“Arnett”) properties.

On April 9th, 2020, Revival Gold executed an agreement to defer remaining payments under the option agreement between the Company and certain vendors (“Vendors”) to acquire the Barnett claims located within Arnett (the “Barnett Agreement”, announced on June 30, 2017) by one year. Previously, the Company’s remaining options payments under the Barnett Agreement were due on June 30th, 2020 and June 30th, 2021. In exchange for making a cash payment of US$75,000 to the Vendors, Revival Gold’s two remaining option payments under the Barnett Agreement of US$250,000 each are now due on June 30th, 2021 and June 30th, 2022 respectively

On May 20th, 2020, Revival Gold executed a second amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the terms of the earn-in and related stock purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) allowing the Company to acquire Meridian Beartrack Co., a subsidiary of Yamana Gold Inc. (“Yamana”) and the owner of Beartrack, upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including incurring certain exploration expenditures on the property. The initial terms of the Agreement were announced by the Company on September 7th, 2017 and were amended on May 8th, 2019.

Under the Second Amendment, in exchange for an additional US$2 MM exploration spending commitment by the Company and the grant of an additional 0.25% net smelter return (“NSR”) royalty payable to Yamana capped at US$1 MM, Yamana has agreed to a one year deferral of: (i) site maintenance/reclamation costs, previously to be incurred in the fourth year of the Agreement (“Year 4”), which will now be incurred in the fifth year of the Agreement (“Year 5”); and, (ii) the earn-in election date, previously to be made by the end of Year 4, which the Company can now make by the end of Year 5.

“As a further response to the COVID-19 pandemic, under Revival Gold’s amended property agreements, the company has reduced near-term cash outflows and relaxed earn-in terms,” said Hugh Agro, President and CEO. “This added flexibility will allow the company to continue to build asset value through the current period of turbulent market conditions.”

Revival Gold’s remaining commitments in respect of Beartrack under the Second Amendment are summarized below:

  • 1 MM common shares of Revival Gold due at the end of the third year of the Agreement (September 29th, 2020);
  • US$6.0 MM in aggregate exploration spending by September 29th, 2020 (of which US$6.1 MM had been expended at March 31st, 2020), US$8.0 MM in aggregate exploration spending by September 29th, 2021 and US$10 MM in aggregate exploration by September 29th, 2022;
  • Funding site maintenance/reclamation costs in the fifth year of the Agreement (expected to be approximately C$1 MM) beginning September 30th, 2021;
  • The assumption of all future site bonding, maintenance/reclamation obligations upon completion of the earn-in and acquisition of Meridian Beartrack Co. at the end of the fifth year of the Agreement (September 29th, 2022);
  • Payment of the greater of US$6/oz of gold resource or US$15/oz of gold reserve on conclusion of the seventh anniversary of the of Agreement (September 29th, 2024); and,
  • 5% NSR, 0.5% of which is capped at US$2 MM.
