PERTH, AUSTRALIA and VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 16, 2024 / Sarama Resources Ltd. ("Sarama" or the "Company") (ASX:SRR, Financial)(TSX-V:SWA) is pleased to report that on 13 September 2024, it completed the final tranche of the previously announced A$1m equity placement (the "Placement") (refer to Sarama's news release dated 18 June 2024).
The second and final tranche of the Placement ("Tranche 2") raised aggregate gross proceeds of A$100,000 with the Company issuing 5,000,000 Chess Depository Instruments ("CDIs") at an issue price of A$0.02 per CDI. Each new CDI issued under the Placement will rank equally with existing CDIs on issue and each CDI will represent a beneficial interest in one common share of the Company. The issuance of the Tranche 2 CDIs was subject to shareholder approval which was obtained at the annual general meeting held on 11 September 2024 (the "Meeting").
The first tranche of the Placement, completed on 26 June 2024, raised aggregate gross proceeds of A$900,000 with the Company issuing 45,000,000 CDIs at an issue price of A$0.02 per CDI.
Tranche 2 of the Placement was issued to institutional and other sophisticated and professional investors upon receipt of shareholder approval, as required by the ASX Listing Rules, at the Meeting. An Appendix 2A was announced to the Australian Stock Exchange ("ASX") on 16 September 2024 and provides further detail on the issue of Tranche 2.
Members of Sarama's Board and Management have not subscribed for any CDIs in the Placement.
Funds raised from the Placement will be used to undertake exploration, evaluate complimentary acquisitions and for general working capital purposes. None of the proceeds from the Placement will be used for payments to non-arm's length parties or persons conducting investor relations activities.
Finders' fees of A$6,000 were paid in connection with Tranche 2 of the Placement.
The Placement remains subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV"). The CDIs issued under the Placement are not subject to any TSXV hold periods as all subscribers under the Placement were located outside of Canada.
Notice under section 708A(S)(e) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth)
The Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (Corporations Act) restricts the offer for sale of securities without a disclosure document unless the relevant sale satisfies an exemption set out in section 708 or section 708A of the Corporations Act. ASIC Class Order [CO 14/827] (Class Order) provides relief so that an offer of CDIs over underlying foreign securities is regulated as an offer of securities under the Corporations Act. The Company seeks to rely on an exemption in section 708A of the Corporations Act (as modified by the Class Order) with respect to any sale of the CDIs.
As required by section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act as modified by the Class Order, the Company gives notice that:
1. The CDIs were issued without disclosure to investors under Part 60.2 of the Corporations Act.
2. The Company, as at the date of this notice, has complied with:
a) the provisions of section 601CK of the Corporations Act as they apply to the Company; and
b) sections 674 and 674A of the Corporations Act.
3. As at the date of this notice, there is no information, for the purposes of section 708A(7) and 708A(8):
a) that has been excluded from a continuous disclosure notice in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules;
and
b) that investors and their professional advisers would reasonably require for the purpose of making an
informed assessment of:
(i) the assets and liabilities, financial position and performance, profits and losses and prospects of the Company; or
(ii) the rights and liabilities attaching to the CDIs.
Where applicable, references in this notice to sections of the Corporations Act are to those sections as modified by the Class Order.
This announcement was authorised by the Board of Sarama.
Neither the TSXV nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in policies of the TSXV) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.

CAUTION REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION
Information in this news release that is not a statement of historical fact constitutes forward-looking information. Such forward-looking information includes, but is not limited to, statements regarding the intended use of proceeds from the Placement and receiving the approval of the TSXV. Actual results, performance or achievements of the Company may vary from the results suggested by such forward-looking statements due to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors. Such factors include, among others, that the business of exploration for gold and other precious minerals involves a high degree of risk and is highly speculative in nature; mineral resources are not mineral reserves, they do not have demonstrated economic viability, and there is no certainty that they can be upgraded to mineral reserves through continued exploration; few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines; geological factors; the actual results of current and future exploration; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be evaluated, as well as those factors disclosed in the Company's publicly filed documents.
There can be no assurance that any mineralisation that is discovered will be proven to be economic, or that future required regulatory licensing or approvals will be obtained. However, the Company believes that the assumptions and expectations reflected in the forward-looking information are reasonable. Assumptions have been made regarding, among other things, the Company's ability to carry on its exploration activities, the sufficiency of funding, the timely receipt of required approvals, the price of gold and other precious metals, that the Company will not be affected by adverse political and security-related events, the ability of the Company to operate in a safe, efficient and effective manner and the ability of the Company to obtain further financing as and when required and on reasonable terms. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information.
Sarama does not undertake to update any forward-looking information, except as required by applicable laws.
