BC Moly Closes Private Placement

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 14, 2022) - BC Moly Ltd. (NEX: BM.H) ("BC Moly" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that further to its press releases dated February 10, 2022 and February 16, 2022, the Company has closed the non-brokered private placement of subscription receipts (the "Offering") for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,000,000 at a price of $0.165 per subscription receipt.

Pursuant to the terms of the Offering, the Company issued 3,910,606 conventional unit subscription receipts of the Corporation (each, a "Conventional Unit Subscription Receipt") and 2,150,000 flow-through unit subscription receipts of the Corporation (each, a "Flow-Through Unit Subscription Receipt" and together with the Conventional Unit Subscription Receipts, the "Subscription Receipts").

The gross proceeds from the Offering (the "Subscription Receipt Proceeds") are held by Garfinkle Biderman LLP ("Garfinkle"), in its capacity as subscription receipt agent, pursuant to the terms of a subscription receipt agreement.

Upon the satisfaction and/or waiver of certain escrow release conditions (the "Escrow Release Conditions"), including the Reactivation, each: (i) Conventional Unit Subscription Receipt will automatically be converted into one unit (each, a "Conventional Unit"), comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a "Common Share") and one Common Share purchase warrant (each, a "Underlying Warrant"), with each Underlying Warrant exercisable for the purchase of one Common Share at a price of $0.22 for a period of five years; and (ii) Flow-Through Unit Subscription Receipt will automatically be converted into one unit (each, a "Flow-Through Unit"), comprised of one Common Share, which qualifies as a "flow-through share" within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (each, a "Flow-Through Share") and one Underlying Warrant.

The Subscription Receipts and any underlying securities issued pursuant to the Offering are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day from the date hereof.

The net proceeds raised from the sale of Flow-Through Unit Subscription Receipts will be used to incur "Canadian exploration expenses" that are "flow-through mining expenditures" (as such terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada)) and the net proceeds raised from the sale of the Conventional Unit Subscription Receipts will be used for general working capital expenses.

In connection with the Offering, certain "related parties", for the purposes of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"), subscribed for an aggregate of 1,000,000 Subscription Receipts. The issuance and sale of these securities to such related parties constituted a "related party transaction" for the purposes of MI 61-101. The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements available under MI 61-101. The Offering is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 (pursuant to subsection 5.5(b) and 5.7(1)(b)) as the Company is not listed on the markets specified in MI 61-101 and neither the fair market value of the Subscription Receipts distributed to, nor the consideration received from interested parties exceeded $2,500,000.

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings attributed to them in the February 10, 2022 press release.

Early Warning Report

In connection with closing of the Offering, Pat DiCapo (the "Acquiror"), has acquired ownership and control of an aggregate of 600,000 Flow-Through Unit Subscription Receipts, which upon the satisfaction and/or waiver the Escrow Release Conditions, will result in the acquisition of 600,000 Flow-Through Shares and 600,000 Underlying Warrants. Upon conversion of the Flow-Through Unit Subscription Receipts, the Acquiror's aggregate ownership will represent approximately 33.49% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a non-diluted basis and 34.62% on a partially diluted basis.
