PTX METALS INC. ANNOUNCES INCREASE IN SIZE OF ITS PRIVATE PLACEMENT OFFERINGS

PTX Metals Inc. has increased the size of its previously announced non-brokered private placements from up to $3-million to up to $5.5-million.

As set forth in its news release dated April 6, 2026, the company proposes to complete both an offering of flow-through (FT) common shares at a price of 12.5 cents per FT share and units of the company at a price of 11 cents per unit. Each unit will consist of one common share of the company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant is exercisable to acquire one additional common share at a price of 18 cents for a period of 36 months from the date of issuance. No fractional warrant shares will be issued and no cash or other consideration will be paid in lieu of fractional shares. The warrants will be subject to an acceleration provision, whereby the company may accelerate the expiry date of the warrants if the closing price of the company's common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange is at or above 40 cents for more than 20 consecutive trading days, in accordance with the terms of the warrants.

The company had initially proposed to issue up to $1.5-million of both FT shares and units for total gross proceeds of $3-million, and now intends to issue up to $3.5-million of FT shares and $2-million of units for total gross proceeds of $5.5-million.

The company intends to use the proceeds from the issuance of the units for general corporate expenses and working capital purposes, and to use the gross proceeds from the issuance of the FT shares to incur eligible Canadian exploration expenses as defined in Subsection 66.1(6) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) that qualify as flow-through critical mineral mining expenditures as defined in Subsection 127(9) of the tax act related to the company's projects in Ontario. The qualifying expenditures will be incurred on or before Dec. 31, 2027, and will be renounced by the company to the purchasers with an effective date no later than Dec. 31, 2026, in an aggregate amount not less than the gross proceeds raised from the issue of the FT shares.

Unless issued pursuant to a prospectus exemption that does not require a statutory hold period, the units and FT shares offered and sold pursuant to the offerings will be subject to a statutory hold period in Canada of four months and one day after the closing date.

Additional information

The closing of the offerings may occur in multiple tranches. The closings of the offerings are subject to certain conditions, including applicable regulatory approvals and acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange. The company does not anticipate increasing the size of the offerings further.

Insiders of the company may participate in the offerings. The issuance of units or FT shares to insiders will be considered related party transactions within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101, Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. The company intends to rely on the exemption set forth in Section 5.5(a) of MI 61-101 from the formal valuation requirements of MI 61-101 and the exemption set forth in Section 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 from minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 in respect of such insider participation as the fair market value of the offerings, insofar as it involves interested parties, is not expected to exceed 25 per cent of the company's market capitalization.

In connection with the offerings (as permitted by the policies of the TSX-V), eligible finders may be paid a cash amount equal to 7 per cent of the gross amount raised by finders. In addition, a number of finders' warrants equal to 7 pepr cent of the number of units and FT shares issued pursuant to the offerings may be issued to eligible finders. Each finder's warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one common share at a price of 12.5 cents (subject to adjustment) for a period of two years following the issuance of the finder's warrant. The finders' warrants will be subject to a statutory hold period in Canada of four months and one day after the issuance of the finders' warrants.
