Global Energy Metals Corp. Announces Effective Date of Share Consolidation

The post-Consolidation common shares will commence trading on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") under same name and ticker symbol (GEMC) on August 25, 2020, at which time the CUSIP and ISIN numbers of the Company will change to 37890Y308 and CA37890Y3086, respectively.

The Company believes that the Consolidation will be beneficial to the Company in that it is expected to, among other things, provide the Company with greater flexibility in attracting financing, strategic partners and ongoing investment, and as such, is in the best interest of the Company.

Upon completion of the Consolidation, the number of common shares issued and outstanding as of August 25, 2020 have been consolidated from 97,301,171 to 9,730,117. As previously announced, no fractional Common Shares will be issued in connection with the Share Consolidation. The exercise price and the number of Shares issuable under the Company's outstanding warrants and stock options will be proportionately adjusted to reflect the Consolidation in accordance with the respective terms thereof. Fractional common shares will not be issued, and no cash will be paid in lieu of fractional post-Consolidation common shares. The number of post-consolidation common shares to be received by a shareholder will be rounded down to the nearest whole common share.

Registered shareholders will be mailed a letter of transmittal from the Company's transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc., providing instructions regarding how to exchange their pre-consolidation Common Shares (represented either by Direct Registration System (DRS) advice statements or share certificates) for new DRS advice statements representing the post-consolidation Common Shares to which they are entitled as a result of the Consolidation. Until surrendered to the transfer agent, each share certificate representing old pre-consolidation shares will be deemed to represent the number of new whole post-consolidation Common Shares, as the case may be, to which the holder is entitled as a result of the Consolidation. Non-registered shareholders holding their Common Shares through a bank, broker or other nominee are encouraged to contact their nominee for further information.

This proposed consolidation does not change a shareholder's proportionate ownership interest in the Company.

The proposed Consolidation has been approved and authorized by Global Energy's board of directors as permitted by the Issuer's articles of incorporation which authorizes the board of directors to approve certain changes to the Issuer's capital structure, including the Consolidation.
