Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 21, 2025) - CAT Strategic Metals Corporation (CSE: CAT) (OTC Pink: CATTF) (FSE: 8CH) ("CAT" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it will be undertaking a rights offering (the "Rights Offering") to holders (the "Shareholders") of its common shares (the "Common Shares") as of the record date of October 28, 2025 (the "Record Date").
Under the Rights Offering, Shareholders will receive one (1) transferable right (a "Right") for each one (1) Common Share held. Each Right will entitle the holder to subscribe for one (1) unit (a "Unit") at a subscription price of $0.0075 per Unit (the "Subscription Price"). Each Unit will consist of one (1) Common Share and one (1) Common Share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each whole Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one (1) additional Common Share at a price of $0.05 per share for a period of sixty (60) months following the closing of the Rights Offering.
The Rights Offering is not subject to any minimum subscription level. A maximum of 277,793,411 Units may be issued under the Rights Offering, for maximum aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $2,083,450.58.
The Rights will trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE") under the symbol "CAT.RT" until 12:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on November 21, 2025, after which time unexercised Rights will be void and of no value. The Common Shares and Warrants issuable upon exercise of the Rights will be listed on the CSE under the symbols "CAT" and "CAT.WT", respectively, subject to the Company fulfilling the listing requirements of the CSE.
Eligible Shareholders who fully exercise their Rights under the basic subscription privilege will also be entitled to subscribe, on a pro rata basis, for additional Units, if available, that were not subscribed for by other holders of Rights, subject to certain limitations as set out in the Company's Rights Offering circular dated October 21, 2025 (the "Circular"), which will be filed on SEDAR+ under CAT's profile at www.sedarplus.ca.
Registered Shareholders in all provinces and territories of Canada (the "Eligible Jurisdictions") who wish to exercise their Rights must forward the completed subscription form, together with payment, to the subscription agent, Odyssey Trust Company (the "Subscription Agent"), on or before the expiry time of 12:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) on November 21, 2025 (the "Expiry Time"). Shareholders who hold their Common Shares through an intermediary, such as a bank, trust company, securities dealer, or broker, will receive materials and instructions from their intermediary.
Subject to applicable laws, Rights certificates or DRS advices will not be mailed to Shareholders resident outside the Eligible Jurisdictions, unless such Shareholders are able to establish to the satisfaction of the Company that they are eligible to participate in the Rights Offering. Ineligible Shareholders will be sent a notice for information purposes only, advising them that their Rights will be held by the Subscription Agent on their behalf until November 11, 2025, after which time the Subscription Agent will attempt to sell such Rights on a best-efforts basis and remit the net proceeds, if any, to such Ineligible Shareholders.
The proceeds from the Rights Offering are expected to be used to fund future business expansion opportunities and for working capital and general corporate purposes, as more fully described in the Circular.
