Mergers & Acquisitions Property Options & Staking

SPOD LITHIUM CORP. AMENDS OPTION AGREEMENT RESPECTING

THE LITHIUM GRANDE 4 PROJECT

Vancouver, B.C. – July 19, 2023 – SPOD LITHIUM CORP. (“SPOD” or the “ Company”)

(CSE: SPOD) (OTCQB:SPODF) is pleased to announce that, pursuant to an amending agreement

dated as of July 4, 2023, the Company has amended its mineral option agreement with Noranda

Royalties Inc. (the “Noranda”) respecting the Lithium Grande 4 Project dated July 4, 2022 (the

“Option Agreement”). The amended Option Agreement extends the date on which the Company

must make at least $350,000 in exploration expenditures on the Project from July 4, 2023, to

August 13, 2023.

The purpose of the extension is recent restrictions imposed by the Quebec government, because of

the regional forest fire situation. These restrictions are directly impacting exploration operations,

and, therefore, the Company is further delayed in kicking off its surface exploration field activities

until the situation improves. The Company is actively monitoring the situation to ensure all

Company activities are compliant with respective governmental decrees and to ensure the safety

of personnel associated with the Project. The Company will provide further updates as information

becomes available.

Spod also announces that it has fulfilled its first-year cash payment and share issuance obligations

under the Option Agreement, paying $50,000 cash to Noranda and issuing 700,000 Class A

common shares of the Company to Noranda , each share issued at a deemed price of $0.10 per

share. The s hares are subject to a four month hold period, which expires November 5, 2023.

Noranda is arm’s length to the Company.
