Montreal, January 23, 2023. Midland Exploration Inc. (\u201cMidland\u201d<\/strong>) (TSX-V: MD<\/strong>) is pleased to announce that it has completed a third and last tranche of the non brokered private placement previously announced on November 17 and December 1, 2022 (the \u201cPrivate Placement\u201d) by issuing 356,000 common shares at $0.40 per common share for gross proceeds of $142,400. BHP Canada Inc. (\u201cBHP<\/strong>\u201d) has exercised its right to maintain its ownership at 5.0% by acquiring those 356,000 common shares of Midland. This right had been granted to BHP on April 18, 2019, pursuant to an Investor Rights Agreement with Midland. The total gross proceeds of the Private Placement is $3,627,280.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The securities issued in the third tranche of the Private Placement are subject to a four-month hold period expiring on May 24, 2023. Midland will use the Private Placement proceeds to fund exploration works on its properties located in Quebec and for general corporate purposes. As a result of the closing of the Private Placement, there are 82,776,197 common shares of Midland issued and outstanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Private Placement was carried out pursuant to prospectus exemptions of applicable securities laws and is subject to final acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amendment to Stock Option Plan<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On December 8, 2022, the Corporation amended its stock option plan (the “Plan”) to increase from 5,790,000 to 8,200,000 the number of shares issuable under the Plan, to provide for the requirement to obtain disinterested shareholders\u2019 approval to extend the term of options granted to insiders, eliminate the cashless exercise feature and provide that any adjustment to security-based compensation awarded or issued under the Plan, other than in connection with a stock consolidation or a stock split, is subject to the prior consent of the Exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
