Refined Energy Corp. Closes C$1,500,000 Charity Flow-
Through Private Placement
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE
UNITED STATES
Vancouver, British Columbia, February 13, 2026 — Refined Energy Corp. (CSE: RUU | OTC: RRUUF | FRA:
CWA0) ("Refined” or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed the previously announced
non-brokered “charity flow-through” private placement (the “ CFT Private Placement”) of units in the
capital of the Company (“Units”). Pursuant to the CFT Private Placement, the Company issued 1,428,572 Units
at a price of C$1.05 per Unit for gross proceeds of C$1,500,000.60.
Each Unit consists of one “flow-through” common share in the capital of the Company (a “FT Share”) and one
common share purchase warrant (“Warrant”), with each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one
common share in the capital of the Company (“ Common Share”) at a price of $1.05 until February 13, 2028,
provided that the Warrants are subject to a hold period until April 14, 2026, during which time they may not
be exercised.
The FT Shares and Warrants comprising the Units will qualify as “flow-through shares” within the meaning of
the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Tax Act”) and as “eligible flow -through shares” as defined in The Mineral
Exploration Tax Credit Regulations , 2014 (Saskatchewan) (the “ SK Regulations”). Upon exercise of the
Warrants, the underlying Common Shares will not be issued as “flow -through shares” within the meaning of
the Tax Act.
The gross proceeds from the sale of the Units will be used by the Company to incur eligible “Canadian
exploration expenses” that qualify as “flow -through critical mineral mining expenditures”, as such terms are
defined in the Tax Act, and to incur “eligible flow-through mining expenditures” pursuant to the SK Regulations
(collectively, the “ Qualifying Expenditures ”), at the Company’s Dufferin Project, including to fund the
expenditures of the Company’s phase one exploration program at the Dufferin Project, which is expected to
commence in the first quarter of 2026. All Qualifying Expenditures will be renounced in favour of the
subscribers of the Units effective on or before December 31, 2026.
The CFT Private Placement was completed in reliance on the listed issuer financing exemption from the
prospectus requirements under Part 5A.2 of NI 45 -106 National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions
and the Coordinated Blanket Order 45 -935 Exemptions from Certain Conditions of the Listed Issuer Financing
Exemption (collectively, the “LIFE Exemption”). Because the CFT Private Placement was completed pursuant
CSE: RUU | OTC: RRUUF | FRA: CWA0
to the LIFE Exemption, the securities issued pursuant to the CFT Private Placement are not subject to a hold
period in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.
There is an offering document dated January 20, 2026 related to the CFT Private Placement that can be
