Copper Lake Signs Final Agreement to Acquire Additional Interest in Marshall Lake Property

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Jun 15, 2016) - Copper Lake Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:CPL)(FRANKFURT:W0I) ("Copper Lake" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has now executed the final agreement to acquire the 31.25% interest in the Marshall Lake property currently held by Marshall Lake Mining Limited ("MLMP"), a privately held UK based company. The agreement to acquire the interest was previously announced on May 5, 2016. This acquisition will give Copper Lake a 68.75% interest in the property.

In consideration, the Company will issue 34,422,938 common shares and a principal amount of $350,000 of 12% five year unsecured subordinated convertible debentures to MLMP, subject to customary closing adjustments. The debentures are convertible into units, comprised of one share and one warrant, at $0.055 per unit for the first year and $0.10 per unit thereafter. The warrants will have an exercise price equal to the conversion rate of the units when issued. The total consideration is valued at $2,071,000.

The common shares and convertible debentures issuable under the acquisition will ultimately be distributed directly to MLMP's shareholders. All MLMP shareholders will be subject to an initial six-month hold, and any MLMP shareholder that holds more than 5% of the outstanding Copper Lake shares will be subject to a phased hold over twenty-four months.

MLMP will also be entitled to nominate two individuals for election to the Company's board of directors, which will be expanded to five directors.

The transaction is subject to, among other things, the Company receiving shareholder approval at the Annual General and Special Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for July 26, 2016 and TSX Venture Exchange approval.
