Star Metro - Patriot Resources Announces Change Of Concurrent Financing Structure And New Board Member

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / April 21, 2026 / Patriot Resources Corp. (TSXV:MAGA.H) (the "Company") announces that further to its press release dated March 27, 2026 that it has amended the terms of its proposed non-brokered private placement that is being conducted in connection with the Company's proposed acquisition of the Liberty Ridge Property as described in the Company's press release dated February 2, 2026 (the "Transaction").

Rather than a non-brokered financing of subscription receipts as announced in the press release dated March 27, 2026, the Company will now undertake a non-brokered private placement of units (the "Units") at $0.50 per Unit to raise aggregate gross proceeds of up to CAD$5,000,000 (the "Financing"). The Financing is being conducted in connection with the Transaction.

Each Unit will be comprised of one common share of the Company (a "Common Share") and one half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of $1.00 per share until the second anniversary of the closing of the Financing (the "Closing"). The Warrants will be subject to an acceleration provision whereby the Company may accelerate the expiry date of such Warrants on 30 days' notice if the Company's shares trade at a volume weighted average price of $1.50 or more for 10 consecutive trading days.

The Common Shares issued pursuant to the Financing will be subject to a voluntary restriction whereby the holder thereof will be restricted from trading such shares, with such restriction expiring as follows: (i) 30% on the date that is 4 months from Closing; (ii) a further 30% on the date that is 8 months from Closing; and (iii) the remaining 40% on the date that is 12 months from Closing.

The net proceeds of the Financing will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes by the Company in connection with the Transaction.

Closing shall occur concurrent with the completion of the Transaction and not before. The Financing is being offered by way of private placement to qualified investors in all provinces of Canada, and in those other jurisdictions where the Financing can lawfully be made, including the United States under applicable private placement exemptions. Canadian subscribers must be "accredited investors" (as defined in National Instrument 45-106 - Prospectus Exemptions) or otherwise qualified under National Instrument 45-106.

All securities issued pursuant to the Financing will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day from the date of Closing in accordance with applicable securities laws.

The Company may pay finder's fees in cash and/or securities to certain arm's length finders engaged in connection with the Financing.

The closing of the Financing, including the payment of any cash fees or securities to finders, is subject to the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange in connection with their approval of the Transaction.

For the avoidance of doubt the Closing will not occur as long as the Company's common shares are listed on the NEX Board of the TSXV, from which the Company will seek to delist its common shares as part of the Transaction.

The Transaction, and therefore the Financing may not close as currently contemplated or at all.

Addition to Board of Directors

The Company further wishes to announce that it has appointed Mr. Jason Latkowcer to its board of directors (the "Board").

Jason Latkowcer is an accomplished executive with over 14 years of experience spanning corporate and business development, capital markets, and strategic partnerships.

His track record includes advancing one of the top 10 largest lithium deposits in the United States to a Mineral Resource Estimate, underscoring his hands-on expertise in critical minerals development in Nevada.
