Frankfurt Stock Exchange (FSE): OAY3
OTCQB Venture Market (OTC): PNXLF

Argentina Lithium & Energy Corp. (TSXV: LIT) (FSE: OAY3) (OTC: PNXLF) ("Argentina Lithium" or the "Company") announces that it has closed the private placement announced on July 21, 2022 and increased on August 9 and August 11, 2022 through the issuance of 10,415,000 Units in this 2 nd and final tranche (the "Final Tranche") for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $2,083,000 . In total, the Company has closed on 16,630,000 Units for aggregate gross proceeds of $3,326,000 . The Company has also closed the acquisition of the Rinconcita II mining concession area ("Rinconcita II") located on the Salar de Rincon in Salta Province Argentina from provincially-owned company Recursos Energéticos y Mineros Salta S.A. ("REMSA"), as previously announced by the Company on July 21, 2022 .

Each Unit consists of one common share and one transferrable common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share in the capital of the Company at $0.38 per share for two years from the date of issue, expiring on August 25, 2024 for this Final Tranche.

No Finder's Fees were paid in the Final Tranche. In total, $36,260 were paid in cash on a portion of the private placement to parties at arm's length to the Company. In addition, 181,300 non-transferable finder's warrants were issued (the "Finder's Warrants"). Each Finder's Warrant entitles a finder to purchase one common share at a price of $0.38 per share for two years from the date of issue, expiring on August 25, 2024 .

There were no insiders who participated in the Final Tranche, however, certain insiders of the Company participated in the Private Placement for $20,000 in Units. Such participation represents a related-party transaction under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (" MI 61-101 "), but the transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the subject matter of the transaction, nor the consideration paid, exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.

A new Control Person on a diluted basis was created in this tranche. This individual has agreed that he will not exercise any of the Warrants if such exercise will result in his beneficially owning or having control or direction over that number of voting securities of the Company which is 20% or greater of the total issued and outstanding voting securities of the Company, immediately after giving effect to such exercise, or result in the undersigned becoming a "Control Person" as defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange").

This financing is subject to regulatory approval and all securities to be issued pursuant to this Final Tranche of the financing are subject to a four-month hold period expiring on December 27, 2022 .

The proceeds of the financing were used, in part, to complete the acquisition of Rinconcita II from REMSA. The balance of the proceeds will be used for general working capital and exploration on its properties in Argentina . In consideration for the acquisition of Rinconcita II, the Company made a payment to REMSA of USD$2,500,000 and granted REMSA a 3% net smelter return of mineral and refined products sourced from Rinconcita II over its production life, if the property advances to the production stage. The Company's acquisition of Rinconcita II is subject to the final acceptance of the Exchange which should be available upon filing of a signed copy of the agreement with the Exchange.
