Mainstream Minerals Corp. Share Purchase Agreement with Radio Fuels

Toronto, Sept. 14, 2021 - Mainstream Minerals Corp. (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a share purchase agreement dated September 14, 2021 (the "Share Purchase Agreement"), with Radio Fuels Resources Corp. ("Radio Fuels") and the shareholders of Radio Fuels (collectively, the "Vendors"), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Radio Fuels (the "Transaction"). Radio Fuels is a private company formed under the laws of Ontario, whose sole asset is a 100% interest in certain mineral claims and leases located in the Mining District of Sault St. Marie, Ontario (the "Property").

As consideration for the Transaction, the Company will issue an aggregate of 58,823,529 common shares in the capital of the Company (the "Consideration Shares") at a deemed price of $0.34 per Consideration Share to the Vendors. All securities issued pursuant to the Transaction will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day from the issuance thereof, as applicable, in accordance with applicable securities laws.


Property

The Property is located approximately 11 km east of the City of Elliot Lake, Ontario, and is 100% owned by Radio Fuels, a private Canadian mining company involved in acquisition, exploration, and development of uranium deposits, which acquired the Property in June of 2017. The Property consists of 38 mining claims totally 371 claim units and three mining leases covering approximately 7,822 ha in the Sault St. Marie Mining Division. The Elliot Lake camp has historically produced more than 270 million pounds of U3O8 from vast, strata-bound deposits. The Property was formerly held by Pele Mountain Resources, which commissioned a Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") and associated National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects Resource Estimate which was completed by Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. in 2012. The PEA indicates that positive economic results can be obtained for a portion of the Property, in a scenario that includes room and pillar mining, and uranium and rare earth recovery by conventional milling. The Base Case LOM plan for the Property indicates that 34.6 Mt, at average grades of 0.040% U3O8 and 1,455 g/t TREO, will be mined over 11 years at a nominal production rate of 9,000 tpd. Uranium production is projected to total 27.5 million pounds, and REO production is projected to total 44.1 million kilograms.


Concurrent Financing

In connection with the Proposed Transaction, the Company proposes to complete a non-brokered private placement of up to a maximum of 25,000,000 subscription receipts at a price of $0.40 per Subscription Receipt (the "Issue Price") for aggregate gross proceeds of up to a maximum of $10,000,000 (the "Offering"). The gross proceeds of the Offering (the "Escrowed Proceeds") will be held in escrow on behalf of the subscribers of the Subscription Receipts by Capital Transfer Agency ULC (the "Escrow Agent"), pursuant to the terms of a subscription receipt agreement (the "Subscription Receipt Agreement") to be entered into on or about the closing date of the Offering (the "Offering Closing Date") among the Company and the Escrow Agent. Each Subscription Receipt will be automatically converted, without payment of any additional consideration and without further action on the part of the holder thereof, for one unit (a "Unit") of the Company upon satisfaction or waiver of the escrow release conditions ("Escrow Release Conditions") set out below and in the Subscription Receipt Agreement and prior to a Termination Event (as defined below), subject to adjustment in certain events. The Units to be issued upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts will be comprised of one common share of the Company (a "Unit Share") and one-half of one whole common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will be exercisable by the holder thereof for one common share of the Company (each, a "Warrant Share") at an exercise price of $0.50 per Warrant Share for a period of five (5) years following the date of issuance, subject to adjustments in certain events.

The Escrow Release Conditions are as follows:
(a) The receipt of all required corporate, shareholder and regulatory approvals in connection with the Offering and the Transaction;

(b) The completion or the satisfaction of all conditions precedent to the Transaction, substantially in accordance with the definitive agreements relating to the Transaction; and

(c) The Company having delivered a notice to the Escrow Agent, confirming that the conditions set forth in (a) and (b) above have been met or waived.

In the event that: (i) the Escrow Agent does not receive the release notice contemplated by the Subscription Receipt Agreement prior to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on that date which is 180 days after the Offering Closing Date (the "Escrow Release Deadline"); or (ii) prior to the Escrow Release Deadline, the Company announces to the public that it does not intend to proceed with the Transaction and/or satisfy the Escrow Release Conditions (each, a "Termination Event"), the Escrowed Proceeds (plus any interest accrued thereon) will be returned to the holders of the Subscription Receipts on a pro rata basis and the Subscription Receipts will be cancelled without any further action on the part of the holders. To the extent that the Escrowed Funds are not sufficient to refund the aggregate Issue Price paid to the holders of the Subscription Receipts, the Company will be responsible and liable to contribute such amounts as are necessary to satisfy any shortfall.

The net proceeds of the Offering will be used for general corporate purposes. The Subscription Receipts issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a regulatory four month hold period.

The securities that will be issued in connection with the Offering will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (as defined under the U.S. Securities Act) absent registration or any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities in the United States, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

The Company has engaged Canaccord Genuity Corp. to act as its financial advisor for the Offering. The Company may pay certain eligible persons a commission in connection with the Offering.
