EnerSpar and Israeli-Based Nurexone Announce RTO and New NI 43-101 Filed by EnerSpar

Calgary, August 30, 2021 - EnerSpar Corp. (TSXV: ENER) (FSE: 5E0) ("EnerSpar" or the "Company") and Nurexone Biologic Ltd. ("Nurexone") are pleased to announce that they have entered an arms-length letter of intent dated 23 August 2021 (amended) pursuant to which EnerSpar and Nurexone propose to complete a business combination (the "Proposed Transaction"). The Proposed Transaction will be considered a "Reverse Takeover Transaction" for purposes of TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.2. Prior to completion of the Proposed Transaction, all of the existing assets, liabilities and operations of EnerSpar will be placed into a new subsidiary company, and the shares of the new subsidiary will be distributed to EnerSpar's existing shareholders.

Nurexone, an Israeli pharmaceutical corporation, is developing an off the shelf, non-invasive, revolutionary treatment for the reversal or reduction in the harmful results of spinal cord injury, using Exosome based patent pending technology. The breakthrough treatment is based on licensed technologies from Israel's leading Universities, proven in animal studies to have the potential to treat spinal cord injury. In a study conducted on rats at the Technion, Israel's Institute of Technology, the treatment showed spinal cord nerve regeneration following complete lesion of the spinal cord, allowing the rats to walk again.

Jay Richardson, EnerSpar's CEO said, "We are pleased to be arranging this transaction to provide additional value to EnerSpar shareholders, following which we anticipate moving forward with the Baie Johan Beetz Project in the new subsidiary, for which we will be seeking a separate listing on a Canadian stock exchange. Nurexone's pharmaceutical development being in such an exciting and needed area gives us great enthusiasm for this transaction. We are also pleased to announce that a new NI 43-101 Technical Report has been filed on SEDAR embodying all of the historic work done on EnerSpar's Johan Beetz Potassic and Soda Feldspar project including the more recent 2017 geological surveying and drilling work. EnerSpar continues to be intent on bringing this project to a more advanced stage with a view to its being an attractive sale proposition as a North American provider of a key input into the solar glass manufacturing process." William McGuinty P.Geo., a Qualified Person for the purposes of NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the references to the Johan Beetz Technical Report in this press release.

Terms of the Proposed Transaction

The Proposed Transaction will be structured as an amalgamation, arrangement, takeover bid, share purchase or other similar form of transaction or series of transactions that have a similar effect with EnerSpar acquiring each ordinary share of Nurexone in exchange for 17 post-Consolidation (as herein defined) EnerSpar shares from treasury. The final structure for the Proposed Transaction is subject to satisfactory tax, corporate and securities law advice for both EnerSpar and Nurexone.

Prior to consummation of the Proposed Transaction, EnerSpar will, subject to the approval of EnerSpar Shareholders, consolidate all the issued and outstanding common shares of EnerSpar ("EnerSpar Shares") on the basis of 10 pre-consolidation EnerSpar Shares for each one post-consolidation EnerSpar Share (the "Consolidation").

Pursuant to the terms of the Proposed Transaction, it is expected that the board of directors of the company resulting from the Proposed Transaction (the "Resulting Issuer") will consist of five directors proposed to be nominated by Nurexone and approved by shareholders of Enerspar at an annual and special meeting of shareholders among other matters including the approval of a name change of the Resulting Issuer to "Nurexone Biologic Inc." and an amended and restated stock option plan of the Resulting Issuer. Subject to approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"), it is expected that management of the Resulting Issuer will include Dr. Lior Shaltiel (CEO) and Eran Avadya (CFO) among other management nominees of Nurexone.

In addition, completion of the Proposed Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including completion of a concurrent financing of no less than CAD$2M by Nurexone and receipt of all necessary shareholder and regulatory approvals, the execution of a definitive agreement and related transaction documents and approval of the TSXV. If approved by the TSXV, it is expected that the Resulting Issuer will be a life science issuer for purposes of the TSXV.

Prior to the completion of the Proposed Transaction, the Company must have completed a court approved arrangement (the "Arrangement") pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (Alberta), pursuant to which, among other things, all of the existing assets and operations of EnerSpar will have been placed into a new subsidiary company, and the shares of the new subsidiary will be distributed to EnerSpar's existing shareholders. The effect of this is that the existing Enerspar business will continue for the sole benefit of the existing EnerSpar shareholders.

The EnerSpar Shares will remain halted until the Proposed Transaction has closed.
