Orsu Metals Corporation: New Exclusivity Agreement for Potential Sale of Akdjol-Tokhtazan Project
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwired - April 7, 2015) - Orsu Metals Corporation ("Orsu" or the "Company"), the London-
based dual listed (AIM:OSU)(TSX:OSU) base and precious metals exploration and development company, today announces that
it has entered into a new conditional exclusivity agreement (the "Exclusivity Agreement") with David-Invest LLP ("David-
Invest"), a Kyrgyz registered company, and a related company, David Way Limited ("David Way"), a Hong Kong registered
company (together the "Potential Buyers") with a view to the potential sale of its Akdjol and Tokhtazan gold exploration
licences in Kyrgyzstan (together the "Akdjol-Tokhtazan Project").
The key new terms of the Exclusivity Agreement are:
=- the Potential Buyers have been granted an exclusive right to purchase
the Akdjol-Tokhtazan Project until December 31, 2015 (the "Exclusivity
Period") conditional upon the Potential Buyers continuing to fund the
costs of maintaining the licence;
=- Orsu has the right to terminate the agreement
a. at any time, in the event of non-fulfilment of the obligation to
fund the costs of maintaining the licence; or
b. on serving notice between June 24 and 30, 2015, inclusive, and
September 24 and 30, 2015 inclusive.
Other than as described above, there have been no significant changes to the terms of the previous exclusivity
agreements signed in 2012, 2013 and 2014. In particular, the key terms are as follows:
=- the Potential Buyers have the option to purchase the Akdjol-Tokhtazan
Project at any time on or before the expiry of the Exclusivity Period
for a consideration of US$5.0 million. The previous non-refundable
deposits of US$400,000 received by the Company during 2014, will be
applied against the consideration in the event of any sale;
=- the Potential Buyers will fund the exploration programme for the Akdjol-
Tokhtazan Project licences (which are due to expire on December 31,
2015) on a non-refundable basis for the Exclusivity Period; and
=- the Potential Buyers have the right to terminate the Exclusivity
Agreement at any time.
The Company will apply any proceeds from a sale to working capital and identification of other early stage exploration
opportunities consistent with the Company's strategy.
Management believe that in the absence of any other firm proposals from other interested parties and given the
continuing difficult market conditions facing junior mining and exploration companies, and the specific challenges
relating to assets within certain countries of the Former Soviet Union such as Kyrgyzstan, the Exclusivity Agreement
represents the best prospect for achieving the disposal of the Akdjol-Tokhtazan Project available to the Company at this
time and for the foreseeable future.
