Atha Energy Provides Updates To Transactions With 92 Energy And Latitude Uranium and Announces Application For Listing On Tsxv

VANCOUVER, Jan. 25, 2024 - Atha Energy Corp. (CSE: SASK) (FRA: X5U) (OTCQB: SASKF) ("ATHA") is pleased to provide an update on its previously announced proposed acquisition transactions (together, the "Transactions") with Latitude Uranium Inc. (CSE: LUR) ("Latitude") and 92 Energy Limited (ASX: 92E) ("92E") further to its press release dated December 7, 2023.

ATHA is pleased to announce that in accordance with the policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE"), it expects to satisfy the requirements of the CSE with respect to shareholder approval for the Transactions by way of a written resolution (the "Written Consent Resolutions") executed by shareholders of ATHA holding greater than 50% of the issued and outstanding common shares of ATHA ("ATHA Shares"), and accordingly, has cancelled its previously called meeting of shareholders.

Additionally, ATHA is pleased to announce that it has applied to list (the "Proposed TSXV Listing") the ATHA Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"). Approval by the TSXV of the Proposed TSXV Listing is conditional on the satisfaction by ATHA of the conditions to listing imposed by the TSXV and there can be no assurance that such approval will be received.

ATHA also wishes to announce that it has entered into an amended and restated binding scheme implementation deed (the "A&R 92E SID") with 92E dated January 25, 2024, amending and restating the binding scheme implementation deed dated December 7, 2023, to allow for ATHA to proceed with the Proposed TSXV Listing and Written Consent Resolutions in lieu of a meeting of ATHA shareholders. A copy of the A&R 92E SID will be filed on ATHA's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca.

ATHA and 92E are currently actively working towards the finalization of the meeting materials for the meeting of holders of 92E shares (the "92E Meeting"). At the 92E Meeting, 92E shareholders will be asked to consider and vote on a resolution approving the previously announced 92E scheme. Further details of the 92E Meeting will be announced by 92E in due course.

Finally, ATHA also announces that it has filed restated interim financial statements and associated management's discussion and analysis for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, copies of which are available on ATHA's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca (the "Restated Statements"). The Restated Statements are filed in connection with a recalculation related to the amortization of incentive stock options of ATHA (a non-cash flow item) identified during the course of the auditor review engagement of the interim financial statements of the Company for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 undertaken in connection with the Transactions.
