News Release

NORTHWEST COPPER ANNOUNCES UPSIZE TO NON-BROKERED PRIVATE PLACEMENT

FINANCING

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED

STATES

Vancouver, BC – August 26, 2024 – NorthWest Copper Corp. (“NorthWest” or “the Company”) (TSX -V: NWST) is

pleased to announce that as a result of increased demand, the non-brokered private placement financing previously

announced on August 19, 2024 will now consist of up to 4,600,000 units at a price of $0.25 per unit (a “Unit”) for

gross proceeds of up to $ 1,150,000 (the “Private Placement”). Each Unit consists of one common share of the

Company (each, a “Common Share”) and one non-transferable Common Share purchase warrant (each a “Warrant”),

with each Warrant exercisable to purchase one additional Common Share for a period of 2 years from th e date of

closing at an exercise price of $0.30.

Proceeds from the Private Placement will be used primarily to fund general working capital purposes.

The Private Placement is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval. All Common Shares and Warrants issued

pursuant to the Private Placement and any Common Shares issuable on exercise of Warrants will be subject to a four

month and a day hold period from the closing date, and TSX Venture Exchange hold period, as applicable.

It is anticipated that certain insiders of the Company will acquire Units . Such participation will each be considered a

“related party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61 -101 – Protection of Minority Security

Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61 -101”). The Company intends to rely on the exemptions from the formal

valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61 -101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a)

of MI 61-101 in respect of the Private Placement due to the fair market value of the related party participation being

below 25% of the Company’s market capitalization for purposes of MI 61 -101. The Company will file a material

change report in respect of the Private Placement. However, the material change report will be filed less than 21

days prior to the closing of the Private Placement, which is consistent with market practice and the Company deems

reasonable in the circumstances.

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of

any of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful, including any of the

securities in the United States of America. The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United

States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (t he “1933 Act”) or any state securities laws and may not be offered or

sold within the United States or to, or for account or benefit of, U.S. Persons (as 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 requirements is available.
