(CSE:NICO)(OTCQB:NICLF) ("Class 1 Nickel" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it proposes to complete a non-brokered private placement (the "Private Placement") pursuant to which it will issue up to 2,419,354 units of the Company (the "Units") at a price of Cdn$0.124 per Unit to raise aggregate gross proceeds of up to Cdn$300,000. Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company (a "Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant, with each whole such common share purchase warrant entitling the holder thereof to acquire one additional Share at an exercise price of $0.25 for a period of three years from the date of issuance thereof. Insiders may participate in the Private Placement in amounts yet to be determined. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Private Placement for general corporate purposes.

Mr. David Fitch will acquire, directly or indirectly, all of the Shares issuable pursuant to the Share for Debt Transaction.

As Mr. Fitch is an insider of the Company, the Share for Debt Transaction is a "related party transaction" under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61- 101"). The Company is relying upon the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in Sections 5.5(b) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of related party participation in the Share for Debt Transaction as the Company is listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange and neither the fair market value (as determined under MI 61-101) of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the Share for Debt Transaction, insofar as it involves the related parties, exceeded 25% of the Company's market capitalization (as determined under MI 61-101).

All of the securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement and the Share for Debt Transaction will be subject to a statutory hold period expiring four months and one day following the date of closing. Both the Private Placement and Share for Debt Transaction remain subject to the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange.
