VANCOUVER, BC, April 30, 2021 /CNW/ - Diamond Fields Resources Inc. (TSXV: DFR) ("DFR" or, including its subsidiaries, the "Company") announces that it has entered into a loan agreement (the "Agreement") with the Company's major shareholder, Spirit Resources SARL (the "Lender"), whose beneficial owner is Mr. Jean Raymond Boulle.

The Agreement is for an eight percent (8%) unsecured term loan facility of up to US$1,000,000 (the "Loan"), which will be used for general corporate purposes, and shall be repayable in full on 29 April 2022 (the "Final Repayment Date").

DFR shall prepay the Loan upon receipt of the proceeds of any debt, equity or other financing that occurs prior to the Final Repayment Date.

The entering into of the Agreement (the "Transaction") is considered a related party transaction under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101") due to the fact that the Lender is the Company's major shareholder and a related party to the Company. The Transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements under MI 61-101 (pursuant to subsections 5.5(b) and 5.7(f)) on the basis that the Company is not listed on a specified market and the Agreement constitutes a loan from a related party with no equity or voting component. The Transaction was approved by the Company's independent directors and will have no effect on the percentage of securities of the Company owned by the Lender.
