/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES/

Capella Minerals Ltd. (TSXV: CMIL) (FRA: N7D2) (the "Company") wishes to announce and to clarify further its October 8, 2025 release, wherein in an effort to conserve capital the Company has settled an aggregate of $262,607 in debt with the issuance of 4,376,784 shares (the "Shares").

The Shares have been issued to insiders of the Company for outstanding management and non-executive director fees (an aggregate 3,381,484 shares, covering periods from November 30, 2022 to August 31, 2025) and in partial payment of promissory note (995,300 shares). In accordance with regulatory and securities law the shares are being issued with a four month plus 1 day hold period trading restriction expiring on April 30, 2026.

The share issuance to insiders and the entry into a Promissory Note (as detailed below) is considered to be a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61- 101"). The transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the securities being issued nor the consideration being paid exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization.

Promissory Note - The Company wishes to announce that it had previously entered into a convertible promissory note with a non-executive director of the Company on October 13, 2023 for USD $150,000 bearing interest at 8% per annum (the "Previous Note"). The Company has paid an aggregate USD $42,400 in interest and principal. The Company did not receive Exchange approval to the Previous Note but no securities were issued in relation to the convertibility of the Previous Note. The loan proceeds were used for general administrative purposes.

The Company has replaced the Previous Note in its entirety with a new Promissory Note for USD $133,177 (inclusive of principal and interest) bearing interest at 8% per annum (the "Note"). The Note, held by a director of the Company, is unsecured, is not convertible into securities of the Company without Exchange approval and matures on August 31, 2026. The Company intends on retiring the Note after securing new projects and/or securing additional funding. There are no bonus securities or other compensation payable in relation to the Note.

Annual Meeting - The Company has rescheduled its annual general and special meeting of shareholders to January 30, 2026; due to the holiday season, registered shareholders not receiving the management prepared meeting materials in a timely manner are invited to view meeting materials on the Company's website www.capellaminerals.com when published; and contact the Company directly at info@capellaminerals.com to receive individual information to access online voting.
