The rights offering is part of Canamera's strategy to fund its exploration activities, specifically targeting the Turvolandia Rare Earth Project in Brazil. The company also plans to use the proceeds for mineral claim management expenses related to its properties in Colorado and Wyoming, as well as for general and administrative expenses.
To ensure a meaningful incentive for shareholders to participate, the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE) policies require a discount. As a result, the rights offering will provide a discount to shareholders, encouraging them to subscribe for new shares.
Canamera has also entered into a standby guaranty agreement with 1357508 B.C. Ltd. and Nico Consulting Inc. These Standby Guarantors have agreed to subscribe for the necessary number of shares to fully guarantee the rights offering. The Standby Guarantors currently hold 2,982,475 shares, representing 3.90% of the company's total issued and outstanding shares. If they fully exercise their rights and their basic subscription privilege, they will hold 79,507,088 shares.
In consideration for providing the standby guaranty, Canamera will pay the Standby Guarantors an aggregate standby fee of 5% of the total amount of the guaranty. Additionally, the company will issue non-transferable bonus share purchase warrants to the Standby Guarantors, entitling them to purchase up to 7,652,460 shares at a price of $0.18 per share for a period of five years.
The rights offering will expire at 4:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on October 9, 2026. Shareholders who fully exercise their rights under the basic subscription privilege will be entitled to subscribe for additional shares, if available, as a result of unexercised rights prior to the expiry time, subject to certain limitations as set out in the company's rights offering circular.

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities within the United States.
Following the closing of the rights offering and the issuance of shares upon exercise of the rights, Canamera intends to complete a consolidation of its issued and outstanding shares. The company expects to potentially complete the consolidation on the basis of one post-consolidation share for up to six pre-consolidation shares. No fractional shares will be issued pursuant to the consolidation.
