Argentina Lithium Applies to Extend Warrants

Argentina Lithium & Energy Corp (TSXV:LIT), “Argentina Lithium” or the “Company”) announces that the Company has made an application to the TSX Venture Exchange to extend the term of the outstanding warrants as follows:

• 9,117,000 warrants that are set to expire on October 26, 2018 to be extended to October 26, 2019. 10,000,000 warrants were originally issued on October 26, 2016 as part of the units issued under a private placement completed by the Company in October 2016. Subsequent to the issuance, 883,000 warrants were exercised. The warrants are also subject to an accelerator (see text below).

The exercise price of the warrants will remain at $0.30.  Each whole warrant, when exercised, will be exchangeable for one common share of the Company.

The Warrant exercise period may be accelerated if the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) for the Company’s common shares on the Exchange is $0.75 or greater for a period of 10 consecutive trading days, then the Company may deliver a notice (the “Notice”) to the Warrant holder notifying such Warrant holder that the Warrants must be exercised within 20 days from the date of delivery of such Notice, otherwise the Warrants will expire at 4:30 p.m. (Vancouver time) on the 21st day after the date of delivery of the Notice.

The amendment is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”).
