Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 3, 2026) - Talent Infinity Resource Developments Inc. (CSE: TICO) (the "Company" or "TICO") is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement, the execution of an earn-in agreement and the appointment of a new director.

LIFE Offering

TICO intends to complete a private placement offering of up to 14,489,274 units of the Company (each, a "Unit") at a price of $0.10 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $1,448,927.40 (the "LIFE Offering").

Each Unit will consist of (i) one common share of the Company and (ii) one common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each whole Warrant will be exercisable for a period of 24 months from the Closing Date (defined below) and will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share of the Company (a "Warrant Share") at an exercise price of $0.15 per Warrant Share, provided that the Warrants may not be exercised for a period of 60 days from the Closing Date (as defined herein).

The Company intends to use the net proceeds raised from the LIFE Offering for general corporate and working capital purposes.

Subject to the rules and policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE"), the securities issuable from the sale of Units to Canadian resident subscribers will not be subject to a hold period under applicable Canadian securities laws.

There is an offering document related to the LIFE Offering that can be accessed under the Company's profile at www.sedarplus.ca. Prospective investors should read this offering document before making an investment decision.

It is expected that closing of the LIFE Offering will take place on or before March 20, 2026, as may be determined by the Company (the "Closing Date"). Closing of the LIFE Offering is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the CSE.

The Units sold pursuant to the LIFE Offering will be offered in Canada, other than in Quebec, pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption from the prospectus requirement available under Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106 - Prospectus Exemptions as modified by Coordinated Blanket Order 45-935 Exemptions from Certain Conditions of the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption, in the United States pursuant to available exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and in certain other jurisdictions outside of Canada and the United States provided that no prospectus filing or comparable obligation arises in such other jurisdiction. The Finder Warrants will be subject to a four month and one day hold.

The Company may pay a finder's fee in respect of those purchasers under the Offering introduced to the Company by certain persons (each, a "Finder"). Each Finder will be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to 6% of the gross proceeds received by the Company and finder warrants (each a "Finder Warrant") entitling the Finder to purchase that number of common shares of the Company equal to 6% of the Units sold to purchasers under the Offering who were introduced to the Company by such Finder for $0.15 per Finder Warrant, for a period of 24 months from the Closing Date.

MI 61-101 Compliance

It is anticipated that insiders of the Company may participate in the LIFE Offering, and any Units issued to insiders may be subject to a four month hold period pursuant to applicable policies of the CSE. The issuance of Units to any insiders will be considered a "related party transaction" within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). In respect of any such insider participation, the Company expects to rely on exemptions from the formal valuation requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to section 5.5(a) and the minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to section 5.7(1)(a), as the fair market value of the transaction, insofar as it involves interested parties, does not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
