2020

Vancouver, British Columbia, July 20, 2020:  Straightup Resources Inc. (the "Company" or "Straightup") (CSE: ST) announces the closing of its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the "Financing") (see news release dated June 4, 2020).

The Financing raised aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $0.63 million through the issuance of 4,203,067 units (each, a "Unit") at a price of $0.15 per Unit.  Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a "Common Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant (each, a "Warrant") entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at a price of $0.25 per Common Share for a period of 12 months from the issue date.  In the event the closing price of the Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "Exchange") is equal to or greater than $0.40 per Share for a minimum of ten consecutive trading days commencing four months and one day after the closing of the Financing, the Company may accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants by providing notice to the holders thereof and, in such case, the Warrants will expire on the 30th day after the date on which such notice is given by the Company (the "Acceleration Provisions"). 

Staightup's CEO and President, Matthew Coltura commented, "After assessing the market conditions, the Company has decided to close the Financing for less than the originally announced amount, which will reduce the dilution to current shareholders.  The funds raised under the Financing will be sufficient to allow the Company to proceed with the planned exploration work on its properties, and management of Straightup believes this to be in the best interests of its shareholders."

In connection with the Financing, the Company paid aggregate finder's fees consisting of $23,246.98 in cash and issued 154,979 non-transferrable finder's warrants (each, a "Finder's Warrant").  Each Finder's Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at a price of $0.25 per Common Share for a period of 12 months from the issue date, subject to the Acceleration Provisions.  Canaccord Genuity Corp. received finder's fees consisting of $9,082.50 cash and 60,550 Finder's Warrants, Haywood Securities Inc. received finder's fees consisting of $9,712.48 cash and 64,749 Finder's Warrants and PI Financial Corp. received finder's fees consisting of $4,452.00 cash and 29,680 Finder's Warrant.

The net proceeds from the Financing are intended to be used for property expenditures and for general working capital.  All securities issued in connection with the Financing are subject to a hold period of four months and one day in Canada.
