SGLD Sabre Gold Mines Corp

Sabre Gold Mines Corp. (TSX: SGLD, OTCQB: SGLDF) (“Sabre Gold” or the “Company”) announces the closing of the first tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private for gross proceeds of a minimum of $680,000 and a maximum of $1.5 million (the “Offering”). The Company also announces that William M. Sheriff has resigned as a director and Chairman of the Board of the Company effective immediately.

“After many years of service, Mr. Sheriff has resigned due to his increasing workload and focus in the uranium sector,” said Andrew Elinesky, CEO of Sabre Gold. “On behalf of the board of directors and management team, I would like to thank him for his contributions and wish him the best in his future endeavours.”

The Company completed the first tranche of the Offering (the “First Tranche”) consisting of the sale of 4,166,238 units of the Company (the “Units”) at a price of $0.17 per Unit for total gross proceeds of $708,260. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”).

Each Warrant shall entitle the holder to acquire an additional Common Share at a price of $0.30 for a period of 24 months following the closing of the First Tranche, provided that, if at any time the Common Shares trade on a stock exchange at a volume weighted average trading price of $0.45, or greater, per Common Share for a period of 20 consecutive trading days, the Company may accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants by issuing a press release announcing the reduced Warrant term and in such case the Warrants will expire on the 30th day after the date on which press release is issued.

A total of 2,091,206 Units were issued to directors and officers of the Company under available prospectus exemptions and 2,075,032 Units were issued by way of the “listed issuer financing exemption” under National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions. All of the Units issued under the Offering are not subject to a statutory hold period under applicable Canadian securities legislation.

The Offering has been conditionally approved by the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) but remains subject to final approval from the TSX.

The issuance and sale of 2,091,206 Units under the Offering to certain officers and directors of the Company constituted related party transactions within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company is relying on the exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1) (a) of MI 61-101, as the fair market value of the participation in the Offering by each insider will not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company, as determined in accordance with MI 61-101. The Company did not file a material change report in respect of the related

party transaction at least 21 days before the closing of the Offering, which the Company deems reasonable in the circumstances so as to be able to avail itself of the proceeds of the Offering in an expeditious manner.

The proceeds from the sale of the Units will be used for advancing the engineering at the Company’s Copperstone Project, permitting work at the Company’s Brewery Creek Project and general working capital purposes.

In connection with the Offering, the Company paid to eligible finders an aggregate cash commission of $2,244 and also issued to eligible finders a total of 13,200 warrants of the Company (the “Broker Warrants”). Each Broker Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share in the capital of the Company at a price of $0.20 for a period of 24 months from the date of closing. The Broker Warrants and securities issuable thereunder shall be subject to a hold period of four months and a day from the date of closing.

The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and accordingly, may not be offered or sold within the United States except in compliance with the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities requirements or pursuant to exemptions therefrom. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any securities in any jurisdiction.
