Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 28, 2024) - Lara Exploration Ltd. (TSXV: LRA) ("Lara" or the "Company") announces today that it is electing to accelerate the expiry of outstanding common share purchase warrants of the Company exercisable at C$ 1.00 per common share and broker warrants exercisable at an C$1.00 per common share ‎(collectively, the "Warrants"). The Warrants were issued pursuant to the non-brokered private placement of the Company that ‎closed on June 17, 2022. ‎

Commented Miles Thompson, Chairman of Lara: "With some shareholders, including myself, already exercising their warrants, it makes sense for us to now accelerate the expiry of the remainder. As always, we are grateful for the continued support of our team, shareholders and warrant holders as we enter this exciting new phase."

Commented Dr. Simon Ingram, President and CEO of Lara: "Full exercise of these warrants would raise our treasury to approximately $6 million, ensuring we are fully funded for the on-going scoping studies, permitting and next development steps for our 100% owned flagship Planalto Copper-Gold Project in Brazil."

Pursuant to the terms of the Warrants, the Company may accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants after October 17, 2022 if the closing price of the Company's common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange equals or exceeds C$1.20 for 10 consecutive trading days (the "Acceleration Period") by issuing a news release announcing the acceleration within 5 trading days of the end of the Acceleration Period. The Company hereby provides notice of the Acceleration Period covering the 10 trading days ended October 25, 2024 and that the Company is exercising its ‎right to accelerate the expiry of the Warrants to 3:00 ‎p.m. PST (Vancouver Time) on November 26, 2024, being the date that is 21 trading days after the end of the applicable Acceleration Period. Any Warrants remaining unexercised after November 26, 2024 will expire and be of no force and effect.‎

As of October 24th, 2024, 2,650,933 Warrants (including 9,760 broker warrants) to ‎purchase common shares have yet to be exercised. Accordingly, if all of the ‎outstanding Warrants are exercised, gross proceeds to the Company will total approximately ‎‎C$2,650,933. There is no assurance that all or any of the Warrants will be exercised. The proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants will be primarily used by the Company to ‎continue to develop its flagship Planalto Copper-Gold Project in Brazil, as well as for general corporate and working capital ‎purposes.‎

Holders may exercise the Warrants before the Expiry Date by observing the process as set out ‎in the Warrant certificates.
