Summa Silver Corp. (“Summa” or the “Company”) (TSXV:SSVR) (OTCQB: SSVRF) (Frankfurt:48X – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/summa-silver-corp/ ) is pleased to announce, subject to final approval from the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”), the Company will issue an aggregate of 27,400 common shares pursuant to two previously entered into amended and restated mining lease agreements (collectively, the “Amended Lease Agreements”). The common shares are being issued at a deemed value of $1.24 per common share, being the 20-day volume weighted average price of the Company’s common shares as traded on the TSXV. Such payments represent the first of ten annual payments due pursuant to the Amended Lease Agreements.  The Amended Lease Agreements relate to mining claims which form part of the Mogollon property near Silver City, New Mexico.

Pursuant to the Amended Lease Agreements, the Company has agreed to continue to lease certain mining claims which form part of the Mogollon property for a period of ten years and renewable in 10-year terms at the Company’s election. The Company must make aggregate cash payments of US$99,067 on annual basis for such period under the Amended Lease Agreements. Such annual payments are indexed to the Production Price Index for Industrial Commodities as published by the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics (the “PPI”). The Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay an aggregate of US$27,018 (indexed to PPI) of the annual amount payable under the Lease Agreements by issuing common shares at a deemed value equal to the 20-day volume weighted average price of the Company’s common shares as traded on the TSXV.

The Company has also granted a 4% partially repurchase-able production royalty on the mining claims that are subject to the Amended Lease Agreements. The previously existing lease agreements did not provide for any repurchase of the royalty. Under the first Amended Lease Agreement, the Company has the ability to repurchase up to 2% of the royalty for aggregate cash payments of US$1,000,000 (US$125,000 for 0.5%; US$125,000 for an additional 0.5%; US$125,000 for an additional 0.5% and US$500,000 for an additional 0.5%). Under the second Lease Agreement, the Company has the ability to repurchase up to 2% of the royalty for aggregate cash payments of US$2,000,000 (US$250,000 for 0.5%; US$250,000 for an additional 0.5%; US$500,000 for an additional 0.5% and US$1,000,000 for an additional 0.5%). All payments payable in connection with the repurchase of any portion of the royalty are indexed to the PPI. The first three buyback payments under the Lease Agreements must be made in cash. The Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay one-half of the final buyback payment by issuing common shares at a deemed value equal to the 20-day volume weighted average price of the Company’s common shares as traded on the TSXV. All future issuances of common shares of the Company pursuant to the Lease Agreements are subject to approval from the TSXV, in accordance with the requirements and policies of the TSXV. 

Galen McNamara, CEO, stated: “These amended lease agreements represent a strong step towards reducing potential production royalty burdens on important portions of the property, including the Consolidated Extension drilling area. The previously existing lease agreements provided the underlying property owners with a 4% production royalty and no Company buy-back option. The Company now has the ability to repurchase 2% of that royalty on equitable terms for all parties. We would like to thank the underlying landowners for their long-term commitment to the area and for working with us so closely to get these agreements done.”
