VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Baden Resources Inc. (CSE: BDN) ("Baden" or the "Company") announces that it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the "LOI") with NorthStar Gaming Inc. ("NorthStar") with respect to a proposed reverse takeover of Baden by NorthStar (the "Proposed Transaction"). NorthStar owns and operates NorthStar Bets, a made-in-Ontario casino and sportsbook gaming platform.

In connection with the Proposed Transaction, it is proposed that Baden would acquire, pursuant to a three-cornered amalgamation or other structure mutually agreed by the parties, all of the outstanding shares of NorthStar in exchange for shares of Baden.
