Bluejay Mining PLC Announces Financing Update

LONDON, UK / ACCESSWIRE / April 25, 2023 / Bluejay Mining plc, the AIM, FSE-listed and OTCQB traded exploration and development company with projects in Greenland and Finland, announces that the Company and Towards Net Zero, LLC ("TNZ"), a US-based institutional investor, have mutually agreed to terminate the equity subscription announced on 14 February 2023 (the "Subscription") and for TNZ not to receive the shares that were the subject of the Subscription.

Under the terms of the Subscription, on 14 February 2023, TNZ made a lump sum cash prepayment of US$2 million (the "Subscription Amount") to the Company for the acquisition of new ordinary shares of 0.01 pence each in the Company ("Subscription Shares") at a price to be determined in accordance with the terms of the Subscription. No Subscription Shares have been issued pursuant to the Subscription; and TNZ and the Company have now mutually agreed for the Company to repay the US$2 million Subscription Amount today. Once the US$2 million Subscription Amount is repaid, the Company has no obligation to issue Subscription Shares to TNZ, and TNZ will have no obligation to provide any further funding to Bluejay.

Whilst the parties have determined that the Subscription need not complete as originally envisaged, the Board expresses its gratitude to TNZ for TNZ's flexibility in agreeing to amend the terms of the Subscription to release both parties from their Subscription obligations. No breach of the terms of the Subscription has occurred.

The funds raised from the Subscription were to be used to fund a maiden drilling programme at Kangerluarsuk in 2023. The Company still expects to commence the drilling campaign at Kangerluarsuk in the summer, and is in discussions regarding progressing alternative financing plans.
