ATCO MINING RENEWS INVESTOR RELATIONS CONTRACT

Atco Mining Inc. has renewed its agreement with Planet Ventures Inc. for the provision of investor relations and communications services to the company.

Planet is a Vancouver-based investment issuer that trades on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol PXI. In addition to its wholly owned subsidiaries and investment portfolio, Planet assists micro-, small- and midcap public companies with market awareness campaigns; it helps them gain valued industry exposure through its large network of licensed advisers and institutional investors.

The renewal is for a one-year period, subject to earlier termination by either party under the terms of the agreement. In consideration for its services, Planet will be paid an annual fee of $150,000 as follows:

• $30,000 upfront; and
• $10,000 per month, each month, starting on Nov. 1, 2023, for 12 consecutive months.

The company also has the option to pay for the remainder of the contract earlier if its management team chooses to do so. The company is at arm's-length from Planet, and Planet is not entitled to receive any securities of the company in connection with this engagement.

"We are very happy with the work the team at Planet Ventures has done so far," says Etienne Moshevich, chief executive officer of Atco Mining. "Even though it's been a tough overall market, Planet has continued to push our story to new and existing investors, and has exposed our company to a wide audience. With the upcoming catalysts and development we are currently working on, I believe it is important to stay relevant and constantly in front of investors as we work to position Atco as one of the premier hydrogen storage companies in southwest Newfoundland."
