Palladon Ventures Ltd.: Sale of CML Metals

VANCOUVER, Apr 6, 2015 - Palladon Ventures Ltd. ("Palladon" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:PLL) provides the following update. All amounts are in US dollars.

After conducting a lengthy sales process and considering all available alternatives, CML Holdings, Inc. has entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (APA) with Gilbert Development Corporation (GDC) for the sale of virtually all the assets of wholly-owned CML Metals Corporation. The terms of the APA specify a cash payment of $4.5 million, the assumption of as much as $9.9 million of liabilities, and the sharing of any recoveries from specified litigation. The APA cash proceeds will be used to pay retained obligations and to establish a small cash reserve.

While circumstances could change, it is unlikely that Palladon will realize any value for its investment in CML Holdings.

Palladon also holds an approximate 19% interest in CML International (CIL) and in CML International 2 (CIL 2). It is uncertain when Palladon will realize any value from these positions, because Palladon is not the controlling shareholder, the underlying assets are development stage projects, and both CIL and CIL 2 have guaranteed acquisition-related debt, which now totals $18.1 million.

Finally, Palladon's efforts to raise funds have been unsuccessful, so it is uncertain whether Palladon will be able to fund future operations. In an effort to conserve liquidity, Palladon officers and directors have not taken compensation for several months. As disclosed in the November 2014 interim financial statements, the Company borrowed a total of $150,000 from two directors and the CFO to fund operations.

Palladon's primary liability is the above mentioned notes. Palladon has also accumulated significant estimated Canadian and US tax loss carry forwards. Existing cash totals approximately $33,000.
