Global Atomic Announces ATM Facility

/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES/

TORONTO, Dec. 6, 2023 - Global Atomic Corp. ("Global Atomic" or the "Company") (TSX: GLO) (FRANKFURT: G12) announced today that further to the filing of a base shelf prospectus November 21, 2023 it has established an At-The-Market equity program (the "ATM") which will allow the Company to issue, at its discretion, common shares (the "Common Shares") of the Company having an aggregate offering price of up to C$50 million to the public from time to time through Cantor Fitzgerald Canada Corporation and Canaccord Genuity Corp. (collectively, the "Agents").

Distributions of Common Shares pursuant to the ATM, if any, will be made in accordance with the terms of the equity distribution agreement dated December 6, 2023 (the "Distribution Agreement") entered into by the Company and the Agents. The ATM will be effective until the earlier of the issuance and sale of all of the Common Shares issuable pursuant to the ATM Program and December 21, 2025, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the terms of the Distribution Agreement. Common Shares issued under the ATM will be issued from treasury and distributed directly on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX"), or such other recognized marketplaces to the extent permitted, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, all in accordance with the terms of the Distribution Agreement.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the ATM for the continued development of its Dasa Project in the Republic of Niger and for general corporate purposes. The net proceeds from the ATM are not determinable in light of the nature of the distribution. The net proceeds of any given distribution of Common Shares through the Agents in an "at-the-market distribution" will represent the gross proceeds after deducting the applicable compensation payable to the Agents under the Distribution Agreement and the expenses of the distribution.

Sales of Common Shares, if any, under the ATM are anticipated to be made in transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in National Instrument 44-102 - Shelf Distributions, as sales made directly on the TSX or any other recognized Canada "marketplace" within the meaning of National Instrument 21-101 - Marketplace Operation. Since the Common Shares distributed pursuant to the ATM, if any, will be distributed to the public at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, prices may vary among purchasers and during the period of distribution. In connection with the ATM, the Company has filed a prospectus supplement dated December 6, 2023 (the "Prospectus Supplement") to its Base Shelf Prospectus dated November 21, 2023 (the "Shelf Prospectus"). Further details of the ATM are set out in the Prospectus Supplement. The Prospectus Supplement, Shelf Prospectus and the Distribution Agreement are each available under the Company's issuer profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Global Atomic President and CEO, Stephen G. Roman commented "This ATM facility provides the Company with another tool to potentially contribute to the funding of the Dasa Project, along with several other options under consideration."

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The Common Shares have not been, nor will they be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "1933 Act") and may not be offered, sold or delivered, directly or indirectly, in the United States, or to, or for the account or benefit of, "U.S. persons" (as defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act), except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act.
