TORONTO, Feb. 9, 2023 - Global Atomic Corp. ("Global Atomic" or the "Company") (TSX: GLO), (FRANKFURT: G12) is pleased to announce that it has filed a final short form prospectus with the securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces of Canada (other than Québec) in relation to its previously announced overnight marketed public offering (the "Offering") of units of the Company (the "Units").

Pursuant to the underwriting agreement between the Company and Red Cloud Securities Inc., as lead underwriter and sole bookrunner, and Cormark Securities Inc. (together, the "Underwriters"), the Underwriters have agreed to purchase 28,571,430 Units at a price of C$3.50 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of C$100,000,005.

Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company (each, a "Common Share") and one half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will be exercisable for one Common Share (each, a "Warrant Share") at a price of C$4.40 per Warrant Share (the "Offering Price") at any time for a period of 36 months following the closing of the Offering.

The Company has granted the Underwriters an option, exercisable in whole or in part, at the sole discretion of the Underwriters, at any time for a period of 30 days from and including the closing of the Offering, to purchase from the Company for resale up to an additional 15% of the number of Units sold under the Offering, on the same terms and conditions of the Offering to cover over-allotments, if any, and for market stabilization purposes (the "Over-Allotment Option"). In the event the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full, the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering to the Company will be approximately C$115 million.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds raised from the Offering to fund a portion of the capital costs required to advance the Company's Dasa Project in the Republic of Niger to commercial production and for general working capital purposes. Please refer to the Company's press release dated January 9, 2023 that outlines its plans for the Dasa Project in 2023.

As consideration for their services in connection with the Offering, the Underwriters will receive consideration comprised of (i) a cash fee equal to 5% of the gross proceeds of the Offering, including gross proceeds, if any, received from the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option and (ii) Underwriters broker warrants (the "Broker Warrants") to purchase up to 3% of the number of Units sold in the Offering, including any additional Units issued upon the Underwriter's exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. Each Underwriter's Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Unit at an exercise price equal to the Offering Price for 36 months from the Closing Date.

The Offering is expected to close on February 16, 2023 or such other date as the Company and the Underwriters may agree (the "Closing Date"). Closing of the Offering is subject to customary closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of the securities regulatory authorities and the Toronto Stock Exchange. There can be no assurance as to whether or when the Offering will be completed.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities in the United States. The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold to or for the account or benefit of persons in the "United States" or "U.S. persons" (as such terms are defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act) unless registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.
