Global Energy Partner Backs Max Power With $5 Million to Target Natural Hydrogen Discovery in Saskatchewan

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MAX Power Mining Corp. (CSE: MAXX; OTC: MAXXF; FRANKFURT: 89N) (“MAX Power” or the “Company”) has arranged a non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”) of common shares with a leading conglomerate from a Southeast Asian nation (the “Corporate Investor”). The Corporate Investor is a well-established entity with extensive interests and expertise in the global energy sector and will acquire approximately 16% non-diluted ownership in MAX Power, based on the current share structure, through an initial investment of $5 million (CDN) at $0.30 per unit (a “Unit”).

As part of the Offering, the Company and the Corporate Investor anticipate entering into an investor rights and shareholder agreement (the “Agreement”) pursuant to a standard investment license application in the area of origin of the Corporate Investor. The Agreement is expected to provide the Corporate Investor with the right to participate in future financings of the Company on a pro rata basis, as well as certain board observer rights, contingent on the Corporate Investor maintaining ownership of at least 10% of the outstanding shares of the Company.

Mr. Mansoor Jan, CEO of MAX Power, commented: “This strategic investment represents far more than capital – it’s also a strong validation of MAX Power’s vision and provides long-term alignment with a partner that recognizes the potential of the Natural Hydrogen sector and our 1.3 million acres currently under permit in Saskatchewan. We are now rapidly proceeding toward the start of Canada’s first-ever deep drill program targeting Natural Hydrogen, set to begin this upcoming quarter with more details soon. Our goal is nothing less than the world’s first commercial Natural Hydrogen discovery.”

Each Unit of the Offering to the Corporate Investor will comprise one common share in the capital of the Company (a “Share”) and one-half of a Share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each full Warrant will entitle the Corporate Investor to acquire one additional Share at a price of $0.45 for 24 months from closing of the Offering, subject to an accelerated expiry provision.

All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus a day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities legislation. Under the acceleration provision, if the closing price of the Company’s common shares is $0.75 or higher for 10 consecutive trading days, the exercise period of the Warrants may be reduced to 30 days at the Company’s discretion by issuance of a press release within 7 days. If the Warrants remain subject to the statutory four-month-and-one-day hold period during this period, the Company may, if elected, choose to accelerate the exercise period subsequent to the expiration of such hold period. Any Warrants not exercised before the end of this 30-day period will expire and be void.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering for its upcoming Natural Hydrogen drill program in Saskatchewan and for working capital and general corporate purposes. Closing of the Offering is subject to a number of conditions, including receipt of all necessary corporate, regulatory approvals and shareholder approvals (as applicable), including the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”).

There are no finder’s fees payable with respect to this Offering.

The securities described herein 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 accordingly, may not be offered or sold within the United States except in compliance with the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities requirements or pursuant to exemptions therefrom. This press release is not an offer or a solicitation of an offer of securities for sale in the United States, nor will there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
