Vancouver, August 16, 2023 - Lake Winn Resources Corp. (TSXV:LWR) (FSE:EE1A) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that in connection with the Company's proposed spin-out (the "Spin-out"), Gold Winn Resources Corp.

Each Special Warrant will entitle the holder to one common share of Gold Winn (a "Gold Winn Common Share"). Each Special Warrant will automatically convert, without the payment of any additional consideration, into one Gold Winn Common Share on the date (the "Conversion Date") that is the earlier of (i) the date on which the Spin-Out is completed (immediately following the completion of the Spin-Out), and (ii) December 31, 2023. For greater certainty, no Special Warrants may be exercised by the holder thereof prior to the Conversion Date.
For additional information on the Spin-out, see the Company's news releases dated July 12, 2023 and July 31, 2023 (copies of which are available under the Company's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.com).
Closing of the Offering is subject to a number of conditions, including receipt of all necessary corporate and regulatory approvals. All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus a day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities legislation. The gross proceeds from the Special Warrants will be used by Gold Winn for general working capital and administrative expenses.
It is expected that certain Insiders (as such term is defined under the policies of the Exchange) of the Company may participate in the Offering. The participation of Insiders in the Offering may constitute a "related party transaction" within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101").
