Mr. Doornbos has successfully led E3 Lithium through resource and technology development since 2017 and has been instrumental in developing critical external relationships with industry, government and stakeholders. This appointment is in line with E3 Lithium's maturation, discussed more fulsomely below. In line with the high standards of corporate governance, the directors will appoint a lead director at the next board meeting.

The board also reconfirmed the company's subcommittees, including Ms. Craft as audit committee chair, Ms. Cattelan as compensation and human resources committee chair, and Mr. Stashin as governance chair.

Message from the incoming chair of the board

I am honoured to have been elected as the chairperson for E3 Lithium. Several years ago, the company put in place a plan to transition from a junior explorer and technology developer to a successful mineral producer. These transitions take time, and the company aims to ensure we are well positioned for eventual construction and operations of a first-of-its-kind lithium processing facility. As part of this evolution, the company has focused on building a leadership structure that reflects the critical skill sets and industry experience required to guide the next phase of growth and development.

Nearly two years ago, the board of directors was expanded to strengthen its governance and strategic capabilities, with the appointments of Ms. Cattelan, Ms. Craft and Ms. Savage. They joined Mr. Stashin, who had been appointed to the board in 2021.

The transition plan is focused on ensuring the right team is in place at an executive level to align with the growing demands of the business. Included with this is the plan to recruit a president to the company, who will be responsible for managing the internal day-to-day operations and functions of the company. This includes the continual expansion of the design and construction team to deliver our commitment to build and operate a first-of-its-kind lithium facility in Alberta. This is a critical role for the company that we will look to bring on board in the coming year. In the interim, I will continue to oversee these important responsibilities. Following the recruitment of a president, my responsibilities as chairperson and chief executive officer will focus more exclusively on external-facing initiatives that are critical to securing the required regulatory approvals and financing for the Clearwater project and building the business around the technology and value-additive transactions.

As E3 Lithium continues to progress the development of the Clearwater project, raising the required development and construction capital for a project of this scale is a critical role. To lead this effort, E3 Lithium is excited to welcome Brian Newmarch as its new chief financial officer. Mr. Newmarch is a seasoned industry professional with a successful background in raising and managing large capital projects in Alberta and globally.

With over 20 years of experience in finance, energy and mid-stream infrastructure, Mr. Newmarch has held senior leadership roles across the North American energy sector. He has served as the chief financial officer at both Tidewater Midstream and Infrastructure and, most recently, Denver-based Humble Midstream LLC, following executive positions at Seven Generations Energy and Arc Resources. Throughout his career, Mr. Newmarch has led strategic debt and equity financings to support major infrastructure developments and operational growth across Western Canada. He also brings experience in go-public transactions, corporate mergers, and large-scale asset acquisitions and divestitures. Earlier in his career, Mr. Newmarch worked in commodity sales and trading at global financial institutions, including Credit Suisse and Citi, where he specialized in structured risk management and financing solutions. Mr. Newmarch holds the chartered financial analyst designation and a bachelor of commerce from the Haskayne School of Business at the University of Calgary.

The company has granted Mr. Newmarch 300,000 incentive stock options, vesting 25 per cent per year over four years at an exercise price based on the closing price on July 2, 2025, under its omnibus equity incentive plan. In addition, Mr. Newmarch was issued 40,000 performance share units (PSUs), issued in line with the company's performance goals outlined on March 7, 2025, and 20,000 restricted share units (RSUs) vesting 50 per cent per year over the next two years. The grant of the options and issuance of PSUs and RSUs are subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The board and management would like to thank Raymond Chow for his four years of service at E3 Lithium. Mr. Chew was instrumental to the company's success during his tenure. His dedication to the company through our growth stage has been significant, and his contributions have added value across the organization. We wish him all the best in his future endeavours.

The company has also initiated the recruiting process for a vice-president of facility design, considering both internal and external candidates. The key responsibilities will include leading the design team through the successful development, deployment and construction of the first commercial facility and beyond.

E3 Lithium is at an exciting stage as the company matures and moves closer to commercial operations. We are well prepared to execute on our vision of building a lithium industry in Alberta, supporting Canada's initiatives to be a leader in critical minerals, and ensuring the company's continuing success. This success is, at its core, the success of the team and the work they will accomplish over the coming years. We are very proud of the work we have completed to date and are confident in building a business poised for the future and ready to execute. I would like to thank our shareholders and stakeholders for their continuing support of this vision.

On behalf of the board of directors,

Chris Doornbos, chairperson and chief executive officer
