E3 Lithium and Imperial Finalize Freehold Mineral Land for E3's Clearwater Project
CALGARY, Alberta, March 03, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--E3 LITHIUM LTD. (TSXV: ETL) (FSE: OW3) (OTCQX: EEMMF), "E3 Lithium" or the "Company," a leader in Canadian lithium, announced today it has finalized the rights and agreements for freehold mineral tenure held by Imperial Oil Limited (TSX:IMO) (NYSE:IMO), "Imperial" for the E3 Clearwater Project.
The companies have entered into a Project Completion Agreement dated February 28, 2025, 2025 (the "Project Completion Agreement") to finalize the rights and lease agreements for the freehold mineral tenure held by Imperial for E3's use in its Clearwater Project, pursuant to the Strategic Agreement dated June 22, 2022 and amended May 9, 2024 (the "Strategic Agreement").
As set out in the Strategic Agreement, Imperial has provided a mineral lease for 110 sections of the Imperial freehold interest in the area of the Clearwater Project. The long-term lease has a 10-year primary term with a renewable 10-year term on the mineral title. The Project Completion Agreement supersedes the Strategic Agreement and includes the cancellation of 3,413,979 warrants granted to Imperial at a pre-paid price of C$1.86 per warrant upon the payment by E3 of cash consideration in the aggregate amount of C$4,150,000. This amount will be payable in three installments over the first three quarters of 2025, with the warrants being cancelled in proportion to the installment payments.
E3 Lithium continues to build strong partnerships that are essential for driving success. E3's success on the pilot operations in 2023 has further bolstered the progress of E3's technology towards the demonstration program planned for 2025. The freehold mineral tenure for the Clearwater Project will allow E3 Lithium to build upon the success of the pilot operations as it looks to achieve its corporate and strategic goals of building lithium production in Alberta.
"This milestone underscores the strong relationship between Imperial and E3 Lithium," said Chris Doornbos, CEO of E3 Lithium. "It supports the interests of both companies while continuing to drive the success of E3's Clearwater Project and Alberta's position in the global lithium supply chain."
"Imperial's successful collaboration with E3 Lithium has been instrumental in advancing E3's lithium extraction pilot and progressing opportunities from the Leduc reservoir," said Heather Eggleston, Imperial Vice-President of Low Carbon Solutions. "Imperial's contribution of its freehold land leases provides further support for E3 Lithium's Clearwater Project and their overall lithium development in Alberta."
The Clearwater Project is a transformative opportunity for Alberta's critical minerals sector; by leveraging advanced extraction technologies and decades of energy expertise, E3 Lithium is positioned to be a global leader in lithium development.

ALUULA Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results
From windsports to wind power- ALUULA prepares for broader market growth Victoria, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 25, 2025) - ALUULA Composites Inc. (TSXV: AUUA) ("ALUULA" or the "Company") today reported its financial results for the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2025 ("Q2 2025" and "YTD Q2 2025" respectively). All currency amounts noted are in Canadian dollars. Building on momentum from its first quarter, the Company continued to progress against its fiscal 2025 strategic initiatives during Q2 2025. ALUULA reported ongoing diversification of its customer base and sales pipeline, leveraged its expertise in kite design to advance leads in the wind power vertical market, and maintained gross margins within its target range. "This quarter is pivotal for us as we're turning towards a higher growth phase for the company," said Sage Berryman, President & CEO. "Our start in windsports has laid a strong technical and commercial foundation and we are building on that momentum to move into verticals such as wind power and beyond. We see the outlines of a future defined by high growth, diversification and broader market relevance. We are aligning our product innovation, our continued focus on circularity, our team, and partnerships to meet our growth potential." Key Q2 2025 Highlights Sales for Q2 2025 were $1,573,677 compared to $1,403,151 for the three-month period ended April 30, 2024 ("Q2 2024"), which represents a $170,526 or 12% increase. Sales increased across both of ALUULA's sales channels, with Performance Outdoor increasing by $113,935 and Commercial Industrial increasing by $56,591. The Company also continued to make progress against its customer diversification goals by: Reducing sales concentration with the windsport vertical market to 76% compared to 96% in Q2 2024. Continuing to diversify the sales pipeline with 100% of prototype size orders being generated by customers outside the windsport vertical market, compared to 94% in Q2 2024. Gross margins for Q2 2025 were 43% compared to 40% in Q2 2024, which is within the Company's expected range of 40%-45%. Operating expenses were $881,843 in Q2 2025 compared to $1,556,493 in Q2 2024 representing a decrease of $674,650. Operating expenses in Q2 2024 were higher due to costs incurred to effect organizational changes including $390,000 in severance payments and $50,000 in general & administration ("G&A") costs resulting from the write off of patents and trademarks no longer needed to support the Company's future growth. Also contributing to higher G&A costs in Q2 2024 were warranty provisions recorded for older materials with higher-than-average warranty rates. Other Income was $15,540 in Q2 2025 compared to $752,379 in Q2 2024 representing a decrease of $736,839. In Q2 2024, Other Income included a fair value adjustment of $749,391 associated with the Company's investment in Xlynx Materials Inc. common shares (the "Xlynx Shares"). The fair value adjustment was based on the sale price negotiated for the Xlynx Shares in a May 2024 purchase and sale agreement. Net and comprehensive loss from Ocean Rodeo's discontinued operations was $60,936 Q2 2025 compared to a net and comprehensive loss of $394,680 in Q2 2024 representing a decrease of $333,744. This decrease is a direct result of cost cutting measures implemented in April 2024 after the decision was made to discontinue Ocean Rodeo's operations. Key YTD Q2 2025 Highlights Sales for YTD Q2 2025 were $2,835,206 compared to $3,400,430 during YTD Q2 2024, which represents a decrease of $565,224 or 17%. The decrease in YTD Q2 2025 sales is due to timing of receipt of windsport customer orders, which varied significantly across fiscal 2024 quarters and are expected to be more consistent throughout fiscal 2025, a trend that is holding true through the six-month period ending April 30, 2025. Gross margins for YTD Q2 2025 were 43%, which was consistent with the YTD Q2 2024 period and within the Company's expected range of 40%-45%. Operating expenses were $1,701,373 in YTD Q2 2025 compared to $2,239,525 in Q2 2024 representing a decrease of $538,152. Operating expenses in YTD Q2 2024 were higher due to costs incurred to effect organizational changes detailed earlier in this press release. The Company also reported a $106,723 reduction in marketing expenses in YTD Q2 2025 due to the decision not to exhibit at two tradeshows in Germany that were attended in YTD Q2 2024. Net and comprehensive loss from Ocean Rodeo's discontinued operations was $66,331 in YTD Q2 2025 compared to a net and comprehensive loss of $741,237 in YTD Q2 2024 representing a decrease of $674,906. This decrease is a direct result of cost cutting measures implemented in April 2024 after the decision was made to discontinue Ocean Rodeo's operations. Outlook The Company continues to work with its growing list of brand partners, developing products that are lighter, stronger, and recycle-ready. These partnerships are built on the mutual understanding that performance and circularity can be synonymous in the outdoor industry and beyond. The products that are born from these partnerships work to change their respective industries for the better. The Windsport and other Performance Outdoor categories are still the core drivers of ALUULA's growth as more companies move from concept into commercialization, launching new ALUULA-enabled products. Collaborative research and development programs with other industrial partners, such as Michelin Inflatable Solutions and AirSeas, continue to advance the materials' development as these opportunities move towards commercial application. While these existing opportunities continue to progress, the Company is also prioritizing proactive sales outreach in large and growing markets where strong product fit exists and ALUULA's high-performance materials enable uses not possible with incumbent materials. This includes focusing on Commercial Industrial applications such as renewable energy sources (wind power is one example, with the current drive towards decarbonization of the shipping industry) and defense applications (such as ultra-light and ultra-strong sustainable portable shelters, particularly for extreme cold environments). With the Company's corporate foundation now stabilized, ALUULA is focused on key areas including sales pipeline expansion, product innovation, and circularity. The Company has prioritized these areas as well as continued improvements to the patented manufacturing process, as it expects them to contribute to improved efficiencies and profitability. All of these operational aspects will work together to achieve ALUULA's mission, which is to help instigate a global composite textile revolution and prove that high-performance and circularity are synonymous. Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis This earnings press release should be read in conjunction with ALUULA's unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended April 30, 2025 and the related management discussion and analysis, which can be found on ALUULA's website and its issuer profile on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval Plus at About ALUULA Composites ALUULA is an ultra-light, high performance and recycle-ready composite materials brand that enhances the performance of outdoor gear. Proudly owned and manufactured on the Canadian west coast, ALUULA's innovation is driven by a deep understanding that equipment does not need to sacrifice performance for sustainability. ALUULA's materials are known for their unique construction capabilities and their ability to make products lighter, stronger, and more sustainable. | (TSXV: AUUA) On behalf of the Board of Directors,Sage BerrymanChief Executive Officer1-888-724-2470 For ALUULA investor inquiries, please contact: 1-888-724-2470, ext. 4 IR@ For ALUULA media relations, please contact: media@ ALUULA's Brand Partners The term "brand partners" does not refer to formal partnerships with our customers.

This followed a 198% increase in device sales Q4 2024 over Q3 2024 reflecting strong consumer demand and effective activation strategies across digital and retail channels. Operational Restructuring: A company-wide cost optimization program resulted in a meaningful reduction in operating expenses of 62% as compared to Q4 2024 (from $1.6M to $584K) with savings realized through lower overhead, consulting fees, and streamlined administration, while preserving capital for high-impact R&D and commercial rollout of our next-gen wearable lineup - including the upcoming consumer launch of the Immersive Mattress Topper and Neckband V2 later in 2025. Platform Modernization: Hapbee's redesigned mobile app and website launched in the first half of Q2, introducing a more intuitive user experience, enhanced personalization, and improved subscription management - all key levers for recurring revenue growth. Ambassador Program Update: Human performance expert Gary Brecka engaged the wellness community, complementing existing brand advocates such as Jaylen Brown, Jason Kidd and others in expanding Hapbee's presence in science-backed wellness. Revised Messaging Integrated Across All Platforms: Hapbee revised its marketing messaging to focus on seven of the most predominant wellness challenges facing consumers – sleep, focus, stress, anxiety, energy, body aches/strains and dependency on caffeine, smoking and vaping – creating a needs-driven yet multi-solution wellness platform across Hapbee's website, Hapbee App and social campaigns. Strategic Continuity from 2024 Hapbee's Q1 performance builds on the 2024 results, which included: Device sales revenue increased 198% quarter-over-quarter from ($125K to $375K) driven by stronger customer engagement and education.

Retail footprint expanded to over 380 Target locations and boosting national consumer access.
