Usha Resources Provides Reminder of the April 21, 2023 Ex-Distribution Date and Due Bills Trading for the Spin-Out of Formation Metals Inc.

NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER OF THE SECURITIES DESCRIBED HEREIN

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / April 17, 2023 / Usha Resources Ltd. ("USHA" or the "Company") (TSXV:USHA)(OTCQB:USHAF)(FSE:JO0) would like to remind shareholders of the upcoming ex‑distribution date of April 21, 2023, with respect to the plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") among the Company, Formation Metals Inc. ("Formation Metals" or "FMI") and the shareholders of the Company (the "USHA Shareholders").

As per its news release dated April 5, 2023, the common shares of USHA ("USHA Share") are now trading with "due bills" attached during the "Due Bill Period".

The "Due Bill Period" is from April 11, 2023 to April 20, 2023, inclusively. Trades that are executed during the "Due Bill Period" will be identified to ensure purchasers of the Company shares receive the distribution. USHA Shareholders must hold their USHA common shares ("USHA Share(s)") through the end of the "Due Bill Period" to receive their pro rata portion of the Formation Metals Shares (each a "Formation Metals Share") being distributed pursuant to the Arrangement.

Under the terms of the Arrangement, as consideration for the transfer of the Nicobat Property, Company's shareholders will receive one (1) common share of FMI with respect to every five (5) USHA shares held at the end of the "Due Bill Period". For example, for each 10,000 common shares of USHA owned through the conclusion of the "Due Bill Period", the USHA Shareholder will own 2,000 common shares of FMI.

In accordance with the Arrangement, Company shareholders who previously held one common share of Usha (the "Old Usha Shares") will be issued one new common share of Usha ("New Usha Shares") on a one for one basis. In conjunction with the closing of the Arrangement, the Old Usha Shares will be delisted from the Exchange. Accordingly, effective at the close of business on Monday, April 24, 2023, the Old Usha Shares will be delisted. The New Usha Shares will be listed on the Exchange at the market opening on Tuesday, April 25, 2023.

The number of USHA shares held by each shareholder will not change as a result of the Arrangement.

FMI will then hold the Company's interest in the Nicobat Nickel Project and will focus on the advancement of this project, while USHA will retain and focus on the advancement of exploration projects in the lithium space, including the Jackpot Lake Lithium Brine Project where the Company recently reported the highest drill results at the project (see news release dated April 12, 2023) that were over four (4) times greater than the historical average. For updates on the drill program at Jackpot Lake, please see the Company's news releases dated February 7, 2023, February 16, 2023, February 21, 2023, February 28, 2023 and April 12, 2023.

Additional information regarding the terms of the Arrangement are set out in the Company's management information circular dated November 15, 2022, and the news releases dated February 9, 2022, November 17, 2022, November 29, 2022, December 21, 2022, January 10, 2023, March 2, March 15, 2023, and April 5, 2023, all of which are available for viewing on the Company's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.

The Nicobat Nickel Property

The Nicobat Nickel Property is a nickel-copper-PGE project located in Dobie Township, Northwest Ontario 21 kilometres south of New Gold's Rainy River Mine which hosts the Zone 34 nickel discovery.

Historic exploration work between 1952 and 1972 included over 15,000 metres of drilling, 220 drill holes and numerous bulk samples that identified a non-compliant historic resource of 5.3 Mt grading 0.24% Ni that contained a high-grade zone of approximately 225,000 tons grading 0.87% Ni.

Recent exploration work includes over 4,000 metres of drilling that has confirmed high-grade nickel-copper shoots do exist and are considerably better than previously recorded in the historical drilling, with drillhole A-04-15 intersecting from surface to approximately 63.75 metres a weighted average of 1.05% nickel and 2.18% copper that included an approximately 9.8-metre interval of 1.92% Ni from 53.95 to 63.75 metres.

The targeted feeder conduit measures approximately 305 metres by an average of 60 metres in width to a depth of 245 metres that is potentially open at depth and down-plunge to the north and is composed of cumulate textured olivine gabbro. This magma conduit sits in a larger norite body at the base of the Dobie Gabbro. The historical assessment data records high-grade "ribs", one of which includes the zone described above. Future work will, therefore, focus on making the historic resource compliant current and expanding on the work completed to assess for other high-grade "ribs" and the potential high-grade feeder zone as shown in the model below.

Forward-looking statements

This news release contains "forward-looking information" under applicable Canadian securities legislation. Such forward-looking information reflects management's current beliefs and are based on a number of estimates and/or assumptions made by and information currently available to the Company that, while considered reasonable, are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause the actual results and future events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information. Readers are cautioned that such forward-looking information are neither promises nor guarantees and are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, general business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties, uncertain and volatile equity and capital markets, lack of available capital, actual results of exploration activities, environmental risks, future prices of base and other metals, operating risks, accidents, labour issues, delays in obtaining governmental approvals and permits, and other risks in the mining industry.

These statements include proposed terms of the spinout transaction, proposed business plans for each of Usha and FMI, the listing of FMI's Shares, the anticipated benefits of the transaction, and disclosure of additional details concerning the transaction. These statements reflect management's current estimates, beliefs, intentions and expectations. They are not guarantees of future performance. Usha cautions that all forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain and that actual performance may be affected by many material factors, many of which are beyond their respective control. Such factors include, among other things: determination of acceptable terms for the proposed spinout transaction, risks and uncertainties relating to the receipt of approvals to proceed with and complete the transaction and the satisfaction of the conditions precedent to the completion of the transaction, unexpected tax consequences, the market valuing Usha and FMI in a manner not anticipated by management of the Company, the benefits of the spinout transaction not being realized or as anticipated, and each of Usha and FMI being unable to add additional properties to their respective portfolios. Accordingly, actual and future events, conditions and results may differ materially from the estimates, beliefs, intentions and expectations expressed or implied in the forward-looking information. Except as required under applicable securities legislation, the Company does not undertake to publicly update or revise forward-looking information.

The Company is presently an exploration stage company. Exploration is highly speculative in nature, involves many risks, requires substantial expenditures, and may not result in the discovery of mineral deposits that can be mined profitably. Furthermore, the Company currently has no reserves on any of its properties. As a result, there can be no assurance that such forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.

This press release does not constitute or form a part of any offer or solicitation to purchase or subscribe for securities in the United States. The securities referred to herein have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or with any securities regulatory authority of any state or other jurisdiction in the United States, and may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons, as such term is defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act ("Regulation S"), except pursuant to an exemption from or in a transaction not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
