Vancouver, British Columbia – Lincoln Mining Corporation, TSX-V: LMG (“Lincoln” or the “Company”), subject to TSX-V approval, announces it has reached a debt settlement agreement (the “Settlement”) with two former directors of the Company (the “Creditors”) with respect to outstanding debt (including principal and interest) totaling $4,033,794.79.

Under the terms of the Settlement, the Creditors will receive an aggregate of 929,496 common shares of the Company at a deemed value of $0.15 per share and 16 million special warrants at a deemed value of $0.2434 (the “Special Warrants”).

The Settlement includes, amongst other things, a restriction on the exercise of the Special Warrants such that the Company shall not be obligated to issue any Special Warrant Shares upon the purported exercise of the Special Warrants if immediately following the exercise of such Special Warrants the Creditors and their affiliates hold in aggregate more than 9% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.
