FMSTW Foremost Clean Energy Ltd

Foremost Clean Energy Ltd. (NASDAQ: FMST) (CSE: FAT) ("Foremost" or the "Company"), an emerging North American uranium and lithium exploration company, wishes to provide clarity as a result of a CSE bulletin issued yesterday (the “Original Bulletin”) which indicated that the effective date of the previously announced spin out (the "Spin-Out") of its gold and silver properties into a new stand-alone public company named Rio Grande Resources Ltd. ("Rio Grande"), pursuant to a plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") was anticipated to occur on January 30, 2025.

The Original Bulletin did not reflect the updated anticipated effective date of January 31, 2025 (the “Effective Date”) announced by Foremost in its news release of January 29, 2025. The CSE has since issued a revised bulletin today correcting the Original Bulletin and reflecting the correct effective date of the Arrangement of January 31, 2025.

However, as a result of the erroneous information circulated in the Original Bulletin, particularly in respect of the delisting of Foremost’s common shares (“Foremost Shares”) on January 29, 2025, it was necessary to halt trading in the Foremost Shares today.

With the anticipated effectiveness of the Arrangement tomorrow, shareholders of Foremost immediately prior to the Effective Date will receive one (1) new common share of Foremost (each a "New Foremost Share") and two (2) common shares of Rio Grande (the "Rio Grande Shares" and, together with the New Foremost Shares, the "Consideration Shares") for each common share of Foremost ("Foremost Share") held as of the Surrender Date. The New Foremost Shares will begin trading at that time.  

About Foremost

Foremost Clean Energy Ltd. (NASDAQ: FMST) (CSE: FAT) (WKN: A40NYU) is an emerging North American uranium and lithium exploration company. The Company holds an option to earn up to a 70% interest in 10 prospective uranium properties (with the exception of the Hatchet Lake, where Foremost is able to earn up to 51%), spanning over 330,000 acres in the prolific, uranium-rich Athabasca Basin region of northern Saskatchewan. As the demand for carbon-free energy continues to accelerate, domestically mined uranium and lithium are poised for dynamic growth, playing an important role in the future of clean energy. Foremost's uranium projects are at different stages of exploration, from grassroots to those with significant historical exploration and drill-ready targets. The Company's mission is to make significant discoveries alongside and in collaboration with Denison Mines Corp. (TSX: DML, NYSE American: DNN), through systematic and disciplined exploration programs.

Foremost also has a portfolio of lithium projects at varying stages of development, which are located across 55,000+ acres in Manitoba and Quebec. For further information, please visit the Company's website at www.foremostcleanenergy.com.
