Electric Royalties Announces Commitment Letter To Increase Convertible Credit Facility to C$10 Million on Improved Terms, Takes Drawdown

Electric Royalties Ltd. (TSXV:ELEC)(OTCQB:ELECF) ("Electric Royalties" or the "Company") is pleased to announce, further to its April 20, 2023, January 19, 2023 and November 16, 2022 news releases, that it has signed a commitment letter with Gleason & Sons LLC (the "Lender") to increase the Company's existing convertible credit facility from C$5,000,000 to C$10,000,000 (the "Loan Amendment"). Gleason & Sons LLC is controlled by Stefan Gleason, a significant shareholder and Board Observer of Electric Royalties

The credit facility will be secured by: (i) a portion of the Company's existing royalty portfolio (1.5% Gross Revenue Royalty on the Penouta Mine in Spain, 0.5% Gross Revenue Royalty on the Kenbridge nickel project in Canada, the sliding scale Gross Metals Royalty on the Middle Tennessee Mine in the United States, 0.5% Gross Metal Royalty on the Authier lithium project in Canada and 1.5% Gross Revenue Royalty on the Bissett Creek graphite project in Canada); and (ii) a lien against the Company's present and future rights in additional royalties acquired using funds advanced under the credit facility, if any.

The Lender has also agreed to extend the Maturity Date of the loan from January 12, 2026 to January 12, 2028. All other terms of the credit facility remain the same.

Meanwhile, the Company has elected to draw down C$500,000 under the convertible credit facility (the "Drawdown") for working capital.

Brendan Yurik, CEO of Electric Royalties, commented: "We once again thank our largest shareholder Stefan for his ongoing and long-term support of Electric Royalties. The additional $5 million in credit that he is providing, with a favorable term and rate, speaks to his belief in the mandate of the Company, which is to grow shareholder value by enabling the development of metal assets the world critically needs to achieve electrification and transition away from fossil fuels. Access to this credit facility means that Electric Royalties is able to continue pursuing its near-term goal of becoming cashflow positive through the acquisition of additional producing royalties, without diluting shareholders at current share prices."

Stefan Gleason, Managing Director of Gleason & Sons, commented: "We are pleased to help Electric Royalties capitalize on today's especially fertile environment to acquire undervalued royalties. As a shareholder, I applaud Brendan and the Company's board for having kept overhead costs so low while continuing to execute on their business plan - and without dilutive equity financings whilst Electric Royalties' market valuation appears so far below fair value."

The Credit Facility is a "related party transaction" within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Credit Facility is exempt from the valuation requirement of MI 61-101 by virtue of the exemption contained in section 5.5(b) as the Company's common shares are not listed on a specified market and from the minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 by virtue of the exemption contained in section 5.7(a) of MI 61-101 in that the fair market value of Credit Facility does not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.

The Loan Amendment and the Drawdown are subject to completion of documentation, the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and other customary closing conditions.

About Electric Royalties Ltd.

Electric Royalties is a royalty company established to take advantage of the demand for a wide range of commodities (lithium, vanadium, manganese, tin, graphite, cobalt, nickel, zinc and copper) that will benefit from the drive toward electrification of a variety of consumer products: cars, rechargeable batteries, large scale energy storage, renewable energy generation and other applications.

Electric vehicle sales, battery production capacity and renewable energy generation are slated to increase significantly over the next several years and with it, the demand for these targeted commodities. This creates a unique opportunity to invest in and acquire royalties over the mines and projects that will supply the materials needed to fuel the electric revolution.

Electric Royalties has a growing portfolio of 22 royalties, including two royalties that currently generate revenue. The Company is focused predominantly on acquiring royalties on advanced stage and operating projects to build a diversified portfolio located in jurisdictions with low geopolitical risk, which offers investors exposure to the clean energy transition via the underlying commodities required to rebuild the global infrastructure over the next several decades towards a decarbonized global economy.
