Max Power Mining closes $2-million LIFE offering

Mr. Mansoor Jan reports MAX POWER CLOSES FINANCINGS FOR $4.45 MILLION WITH ERIC SPROTT AS LEAD ORDER In conjunction with the previously announced closings of its non-brokered private placements of units for total gross proceeds of $2.45-million (refer to Aug. 1, 2025, news release), with Eric Sprott as the lead order, Max Power Mining Corp. has now closed its LIFE (listed issuer financing exemption) offering of units of the company at a price of 20 cents per unit for total gross proceeds of $2-million. Pursuant to the closing of the LIFE offering, involving strategic new investors, the company issued 10 million units comprising one common share in the capital of the company and one share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder to acquire one additional share at a price of 25 cents per warrant share from the date that is 61 days after the closing date of the LIFE offering until the date that is 24 months from the closing date of the LIFE offering. The company paid cash finders' fees of $10,500 and issued 35,000 finder warrants to certain finders in connection with the offering. The finder warrants entitle the holder to purchase one additional non-transferable warrant share at a price of 25 cents per warrant share for a period of two years following closing. Proceeds of the offering will go toward exploration of Max Power's natural hydrogen properties in Saskatchewan and general working capital purposes. Mansoor Jan, chief executive officer of Max Power, commented: "In total, we have raised gross proceeds of $4.45-million, our largest financing ever -- $2-million was previously announced on Aug. 1, 2025, and is from Eric Sprott, while much of the additional $2.45-million is from other strategic new investors with significant participation as well from management and directors. Our goal is to make Max Power the world's leading natural-hydrogen-focused company and our foundation is a powerful team of geoscientists, engineers, and market and business leaders leveraging the largest permitted land package for natural hydrogen exploration and development in Canada, anchored in the pro-resource province of Saskatchewan." Mr. Mansoor concluded: "As previously announced, we are extremely pleased to have Eric Sprott as a major new shareholder of Max Power as we embark on this exciting new phase in the company's young history." Certain insiders participated in the LIFE offering, which is considered to be a related party transaction subject to Multilateral Instrument 61-101. The company intends to rely on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements provided under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a) of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 on the basis that participation in the private placement by insiders will not exceed 25 per cent of the fair market value of the company's market capitalization.
