VANCOUVER, Aug. 31, 2022 - Imperial Metals Corp.

Each $3.20 of the principal amount of the Convertible Debentures is convertible into one common share of the Company.

A maximum of 14,687,500 common shares will be issued if all of the Convertible Debentures are converted into common shares of the Company.

N. Murray Edwards purchased $32.5 million of the Convertible Debentures. In addition, directors and officers of the Company purchased $2.25 million of the Convertible Debentures.
