Common shares of Vizsla Copper (the “SpinCo Shares”) will be distributed to shareholders of Vizsla Silver (the “Shareholders”) on the basis of one Vizsla Copper share for every three common shares of Vizsla Silver. The Arrangement will not result in any change to a shareholder’s ownership of Vizsla Silver. The majority of shareholders (those who hold their shares through their broker) will receive their SpinCo Shares with no further action.

Once the Arrangement becomes effective, Shareholders will own shares in both public companies: (i) Vizsla Copper, which will focus on the 100% owned Blueberry copper project located in the Babine porphyry belt of Central British Columbia and the option to acquire a 60% interest in the Carruthers Pass copper property located 200 kilometres north of Smithers, British Columbia, and (ii) Vizsla Silver, which will continue to advance the Panuco Copala silver-gold project in Mexico.

Completion of the Arrangement is subject to a number of customary conditions, including the following:

(a) TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) approval of the Arrangement by Vizsla Silver;

(b) TSXV approval for the listing of the SpinCo Shares upon completion of the Arrangement; and

(c) completion of a private placement by SpinCo to raise gross proceeds of up to $3,500,000.

Assuming the timely completion of these conditions, the Company expects the Arrangement to close in July 2021.

The Company also announces that it has completed its non-brokered private placement (the “Private Placement”) previously announced on June 3, 2021.  The Company issued a total of 1,690,000 units (the “Units”) at a price of C$2.50 per unit for gross proceeds of C$4,225,000.

Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant, a “Private Placement Warrant”). Each Private Placement Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one common share of the Company for 18 months from the closing of the Private Placement at a price of C$3.25.

The Company paid cash finder’s fees equal to 6% of the gross proceeds and issued broker warrants of the Company, exercisable at any time on or before December 18, 2022, to acquire that number of common shares in the capital of the Company which is equal to 6% of the number of Units sold under the Private Placement at an exercise price of C$2.50.

The securities issued pursuant to the Offering have a hold period of four months and one day from closing, expiring on October 19, 2021.

The net proceeds of the Private Placement will be used to advance the exploration and development of the Company’s Panuco project, to make option payments and pursue potential future acquisitions, as well as for working capital and general corporate purposes.
