NEWS RELEASE

TSX.V: CPO February 16, 2017

COBALT POWER GROUP ANNOUNCES CORPORATE UPDATE AND PENDING PRIVATE

PLACEMENT

February 16 , 2017 Vancouver, British Columbia – Cobalt Power Group Inc. (the “Company”) (TSX.V:

CPO) today announces a corporate update and a pending private placement.

Recently, Cobalt Power Group has seen an upswing in market activity . The Company attributes this

increase to several factors. The energy metals space has received significant focus over the past several

months due to the rise in demand for lithium -ion batteries. Cobalt, in particular, has been on the forefront of

media exposure. As a result, over this time period (Sept 2016- Feb 2017), the price of cobalt has risen from

approximately USD$12.00/lb to USD$19.50/lb. Cobalt Power Group has amassed a significant portfolio of

cobalt assets in the Cobalt, Ontario region of Canada (see news releases dated September 6 & 13, 2016,

and October 11, 2016 ). The Company has completed its phase 1 Smith Cobalt exploration program ( see

news release dated November 17, 2016 ) and begun its phase 2 program ( see news release dated

November 22, 2016).

The Company is in the process of finalizing two private placements pursuant to price reservation forms filed

with the TSX Venture Exchange.

The first is a non -brokered private placement of 13,000,000 units of the Company at a price of $0.08 per

unit for total gross proceeds of up to CDN$1,040,000. Each Unit consists of one previously unissued

common share (a “Share”) and one -half common share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”) of the Issuer. One

whole Warrant will entitle the holder, on exercise, to purchase one common share of the Issuer (a “Warrant

Share”) at a price of $0.16 per share at any time until the close of business on the day which is eighteen

months from the Closing Date.

The second placement is a non -brokered private placement of 4,000,000 flow through sha res at a price of

$0.12 per share for total gross proceeds of up to CDN$480,000.

The proceeds of the Offering s to be raised will be used by the Issuer to commence an extensive

exploration program on the Company’s Smith Cobalt project located in the vicinit y of the City of Cobalt in

the Province of Ontari o, and administrative expenses. The phase 3 exploration program will consist of drill

target identification (once all data from phase 2 has been analysed) and drilling.

Finder’s fees acceptable to the TSX Venture Exchange will be payable in connection with a portion of the

Offerings.

Both placements are subject to filing of final documentation with the TSX Venture Exchange.

The private placements are expected to close in the third week of February.

About the Smith Cobalt Project

The Smith Cobalt project is underlain by a sequence of Archaean volcanics which are uncomformably

overlain by Huronian sediments. These formations have been intruded by the Proterozoic -age Nipissing

diabase sill. Faulting, on bot h a regional and local scale, has been found by surface mapping and in drill

cores. Polymetallic veining, and especially pinkish -white carbonate veins, has also been reported. Thus, all

the necessary geological components of accepted m ineralization models for cobalt-silver have been

identified on the properties.
