VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 22, 2023 — HydroGraph Clean Power Inc. (CSE: ‎HG) (OTCQB: HGCPF) (the “Company” or “HydroGraph”), a commercial manufacturer of high-‎quality graphene and other nanomaterials, ‎is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement of units of the Company (the “Units”) at a price of $0.12 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,000,000 (the “Offering”).

Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a “Common Share”) and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share (each a “Warrant Share”) at a price of $0.20 per Warrant Share for a period of 24 months after the closing date of the Offering.

Each Warrant will be subject to an acceleration right (the “Warrant Acceleration Right“) exercisable by the Company, if on any ten consecutive trading days the daily volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange is $0.30 or greater per Common Share. If the Company exercises its Warrant Acceleration Right, the new expiry date of the Warrants will be the 30th day following the notice of such exercise.

It is anticipated that the net proceeds from the Offering will be used to further progress customer ‎engagement and product acceptance. A portion of the funds will also be used to ‎extend the Company’s graphene ‎product and application portfolio.‎ The Company may pay certain finders a fee in connection with the sale of Units to purchasers introduced to the Company by such finders.

The Offering is expected to close on or about April 7, 2023, or in any other date or dates as the Company may determine. Closing of the Offering is subject to receipt of all regulatory approvals, and will occur within 45 days from the date hereof.
