TORONTO , June 17, 2025 /CNW/ - Global Atomic Corporation ("Global Atomic" or the "Company") (TSX: GLO) (OTCQX: GLATF) (FRANKFURT: G12) is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement (the "Offering") for gross proceeds of up to C$30,000,000 from the sale of up to 37,500,000 units of the Company (each, a "Unit") at a price of C$0.80 per Unit. Canaccord Genuity Corp. and Red Cloud Securities Inc. will be jointly acting as a finder in connection with the Offering.

Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company (each, a "Common Share") and one common share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at a price of C$1.00 at any time for a period of 36 months following the issue date.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for the advancement of the Dasa Project and for general working capital purposes.

Global Atomic President and CEO, Stephen Roman stated, "Today's offering will support continued development work at Dasa. We have mitigated the size of this offering by slowing our capital spending, which will continue until we have secured our primary funding commitments. 

"We continue to work on several financing solutions and remain very upbeat about securing a financial commitment soon. We are actively working with the U.S. development bank on final preparations for their presentation to their credit committee. Simultaneously we have reached agreement with a JV partner on the major terms of an agreement for them to take a minority interest at the project level. The Company also continues to assess non-equity interim financing options."

Subject to compliance with applicable regulatory requirements and in accordance with National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions ("NI 45-106"), up to 25,000,000 Units that may be sold under the Offering, representing gross proceeds of up to C$20,000,000 (the "LIFE Units") will be offered for sale to purchasers in all of the provinces of Canada (the "Canadian Selling Jurisdictions") pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption under Part 5A of NI 45-106 (the "Listed Issuer Financing Exemption"). The Common Shares issuable pursuant to the sale of the LIFE Units are expected to be immediately freely tradeable under applicable Canadian securities legislation if sold to purchasers resident in Canada.

All Units sold in the Canadian Selling Jurisdictions but not under the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption (the "Non-LIFE Units") will be offered pursuant to the accredited investor exemption outlined in Part 2 of NI 45-106.
