Positive

• Extension of warrant expiration provides additional time for potential capital raising
• Previous successful exercise of 573,000 warrants demonstrates some investor confidence

Negative

• Large number of potential dilutive securities (35.7M warrants) could impact share value if exercised
• Significant insider warrant holdings (30.3M) indicate high concentration of potential dilution control

VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ - Argentina Lithium & Energy Corp. (TSXV: LIT) (FSE: OAY3) (OTCQX: LILIF), ("Argentina Lithium" or the "Company") announces that the Company has made an application to the TSX Venture Exchange to extend the term of the outstanding warrants as follows:

• 35,767,948 warrants that are set to expire on November 21, 2024 to be extended to November 21, 2027. 36,340,948 warrants were originally issued on November 21, 2022 as part of the units issued under a private placement completed by the Company in November 2022. Subsequent to the issuance, 573,000 warrants were exercised.

The exercise price of the warrants will remain at $0.40. Each warrant, when exercised, will be exchangeable for one common share of the Company.

The Company further reports that 30,000,000 (held by insiders that are not officers or directors) and 305,000 (held by officers and directors) of the 35,767,948 Warrants are held by insiders of the Company. As such, the extension of such Warrants constitutes, to that extent, a "related party transaction" within the meaning of Exchange Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Shareholders ("MI 61-101"). The Company has relied on the exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 (and Exchange Policy 5.9), as the fair market value of the Warrants held by the insiders does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company.

The amendment is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV").
