E36 Capital Announces Upsizing of Concurrent Financing to $3,718,900

VANCOUVER, BC, CANADA, February 22, 2021, E36 CAPITAL CORP. (TSX.V: ETSC.P) (“E36” or the “Company”), a Capital Pool Company as defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”), further to its news release of January 29, 2021 regarding the receipt of conditional acceptance from the TSXV in respect of its previously announced "Qualifying Transaction" pursuant to Policy 2.4 – Capital Pool Companies with Kalo Gold Corp. ("Kalo") (the "Transaction"), is pleased to announce an increase in the size of its non-brokered private placement of common shares (each, an "E36 Share") in the Capital of the Company at a price of $0.20 per E36 Share (the "Concurrent Financing").

The Concurrent Financing, as previously announced, was to consist of the issuance of 16,100,000 E36 Shares for minimum total gross proceeds of $3,220,000. Due to overwhelming demand, the Company now intends to issue an additional 2,494,500 E36 Shares at a price of $0.20 per E36 Share for minimum total gross proceeds of $3,718,900.

Based on the number of currently issued and outstanding common shares of Kalo (each, a "Kalo Share"), it is expected that upon the Completion of the Transaction the Company will issue to the shareholders of Kalo a total of 27,450,000 Shares, on the basis of one E36 Share for each Kalo Share, at a deemed price of $0.20 per E36 Share. As a result of the increase in the Concurrent Financing, the number of E36 Shares outstanding at the closing of the Transaction will increase, such that there will be 53,654,500 Shares, rather than the previously announced 51,160,000 E36 Shares outstanding on completion of the Transaction. The E36 Shares issued pursuant to the Concurrent Financing are expected to constitute 34.7% of the issued and outstanding E36 Shares upon the completion of the Transaction.

The following table sets out information respecting the Company’s expected sources of cash following the completion of the Transaction. The amounts shown in the table are estimates and are based upon the information available to the Company and Kalo as of the date hereof:

None of the E36 Shares to be issued in connection with the Transaction or the Concurrent Financing have been or will be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. Persons (as such term is defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act) unless registered under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available. This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of E36 Shares in the United States or in any other jurisdiction where such offer, sale or solicitation would be unlawful.

The completion of the Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including, but not limited to,
receipt of all required regulatory approvals, including final approval of the TSXV, approval of the
Transaction by shareholders of Kalo, and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Assuming all conditions are satisfied, closing of the Transaction is expected to occur on or about February 23, 2021, or such other date as may be determined.

regard to the completion of certain requirements pursuant to the CPC Policy. The common shares of E36, as the Resulting Issuer, will resume trading under the symbol “KALO” following the publication of a final exchange bulletin by the TSXV in respect of the closing of the Transaction.
