Shares for Debt Settlement
In connection with the Corporation's efforts to clean its balance sheet in anticipation of starting production at the demonstration plant, the Corporation announced that it has entered into an agreement to issue shares in settlement of a debt of $47,858 representing accrued interest from a convertible debenture financing which closed on August 13, 2017 and other past consulting services. As consideration for the settlement of the debt, the Corporation will issue a total of 140,754 common shares at a deemed price of $0.34 per share. The convertible debentures, which were subscribed for by several members of the Corporation's management and directors, carried an interest of 10% per annum, compounded quarterly. The debentures were converted into common shares at a price of $0.12 in August 2019 except for the accrued and compounded interest. Accordingly, this shares for debt settlement includes one current director, Gilles Gingras, and the CEO of the corporation, Kiril Mugerman. This agreement is considered a "related party transaction" under Regulation 61-101 respecting Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (Qu?bec) ("Regulation 61-101") and the corresponding Policy 5.9 of the TSXV; however, the proposed settlement with the foregoing insiders is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements provided under Regulation 61-101 in accordance with sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of said Regulation 61-101. The exemption is based on the fact that neither the market value of the settlement with the insiders nor the consideration paid therefor exceeds 25% of the Corporation's market capitalization. The Corporation did not file a material change report at least 21 days prior to the settlement since the transaction was not determined at that moment and the Corporation wished to close the agreement on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.

The settlement is subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange.

About Geomega (www.geomega.ca)

With a focus on renewable energies, vehicle electrification, automation and reduction in energy usage, rare earth magnets or neo-magnets (NdFeB) are at the center of all these technologies.

As its technologies are demonstrated on larger scales, Geomega is committed to work with major partners to help extract value from mining feeds, tailings and other industrial residues which contain rare earths and other critical metals. Irrespective of the metal or the source, Geomega adopts a consistent approach to reduce the environmental impact and to contribute to lowering greenhouse gases emissions through recycling the major reagents in the process.

Geomega's core project is based around the ISR Technology (Innord's Separation of Rare Earths), a proprietary, low-cost, environmentally friendly way to tap into a C$1.5 billion global market to recycle magnet production waste and end of life magnets profitably & safely.
