The deals needed to be rubber stamped by the clubs administrators, but Dearden does not invisage any problems.
Foster, the former Bristol Rovers captain, will sign on a short term deal with a view to a permanent deal once the club comes out of administraton, which is likely to be October time.
Ramsden will spend the whole of the season on loan from Sunderland, where he is yet to appear for Peter Reid's side.
Both will be valuble additions to Deardens squad, with the transfer window closing in 3 weeks time and Notts being short at the back.
