COEUR D'ALENE, ID / ACCESSWIRE / October 9, 2019 / Timberline Resources Corporation (OTCQB:TLRS)(TSXV:TBR) ("Timberline" or the "Company") announced today that it has initiated a non-brokered US$500,000 private placement offering of units (the "Units") of the Company at a price of US$0.08 per Unit, with an option to increase the offering by up to 20%, solely to persons who qualify as accredited investors (the "Offering") under Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").

Each Unit consists of one share of common stock of the Company and one-half common share purchase warrant (each whole such warrant a "Warrant"), with each Warrant exercisable to acquire an additional share of common stock of the Company at a price of US$0.12 per share until the Warrant expiration date of October 15, 2024.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering for working capital, and costs associated with exploration drilling expenses.

Subject to review by the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSX-V"), cash finders' fees may be payable with respect to subscriptions accepted by the Company. It is anticipated that certain insiders may participate in the Offering.

The securities offered in the Offering have not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state of the United States and may not be offered or sold absent such registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy securities nor shall there be any sale of the securities referenced herein in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is not permitted. The securities referenced herein have not been approved or disapproved by any regulatory authority.

Extension of Loan Agreement

On July 30, 2018 (the "Effective Date"), William Matlack (the "Lender") and the Company entered into an agreement whereby the Company issued a senior unsecured note (the "Note") to the Lender in exchange for a loan of US$300,000 (the "Principal Sum"). The Note accrues interest at the rate of 18% per annum, compounded monthly, with a maturity date of January 20, 2020.

The Lender and the Company have agreed to extend the maturity date of the Note from January 20, 2020 to January 20, 2023 (the "Note Extension"). In connection with the initial advance of the Principal Sum, the Company issued the Lender 3,265,500 non-transferrable bonus warrants to purchase common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $0.09 and expiring January 20, 2020 (the "2018 Warrants"). Further to the Note Extension, the Company and the Lender have determined to cancel the 2018 Warrants, and the Company shall issue to Lender 4,000,000 common share purchase warrants of the Company (the "New Bonus Warrants"). The New Bonus Warrants shall be to purchase common shares of the Company at US$0.075 and expire on January 20, 2023.

The Offering, Note Extension and issuance of New Bonus Warrants remain subject to a number of customary closing conditions, including TSX-V acceptance.
