ASHBURTON AMENDS WARRANT TERMS

February 2nd, 2017, VANCOUVER, B.C. – ASHBURTON VENTURES INC. (ABR-TSX:V) (ARB-FRANKFURT)  (“Ashburton” or the "Company”) announces that it has amended the terms of its previously announced private placement (see PR dated January 30, 2017). The units of the non-brokered private placement will now be comprised of one common share ("Share") and one full transferrable Share purchase warrant of the Company ("Warrant") as opposed to one half Share purchase Warrant. Each transferrable Warrant will entitle the Subscriber to purchase one Warrant Share for a 24 month period after the Closing Date at an exercise price of $0.15 per share. The warrants are now also subject to an acceleration clause, which states that the issuer will have the right to accelerate the expiry date of the warrants if, at any time, the average closing price of the shares is equal to or greater than 30 cents for 10 consecutive trading days. In the event of acceleration, the expiry date will be accelerated to a date that is 30 days after the issuer issues a new release, announcing that it has elected to exercise this acceleration right.
