Base Shelf Prospectus Is Accessible, and the Shelf Prospectus Supplement Will Be Accessible Within Two Business Days on SEDAR+

Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - September 29, 2026) - Condor Energies Inc. (TSX: CDR) ("Condor" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Research Capital Corporation as co-lead agent and sole bookrunner, and together with Canaccord Genuity Corp. as co-lead agent (collectively, the "Agents"), in connection with a best efforts, public offering (the "Offering") of 12% unsecured convertible debentures of the Company (the "Convertible Debentures") at a price of C$1,000 per Convertible Debenture for gross proceeds of up to C$20,000,000.

In addition, concurrent with the Offering, the Company also intends to undertake a non-brokered private placement pursuant to applicable prospectus exemptions in accordance with NI 45-106 on the same price, terms, and conditions as the Offering for up to C$45,000,000 in gross proceeds (the "Non-Brokered Private Placement"), except the Convertible Debentures to be issued under the Non-Brokered Private Placement will have a statutory hold period of four months and one day from Closing (as defined herein).

The aggregate gross proceeds from the Offering and the Non-Brokered Private Placement will be up to C$65,000,000, with participation from certain members of the board of directors, management team and close associates of the Company.

Each Convertible Debenture has a principal value of C$1,000, is convertible into common shares of the Company (each a "Common Share") at a conversion price of C$6.00 per Common Share (the "Conversion Price"), and matures on the date that is 36 months from the date of issuance (the "Maturity Date"). Interest shall accrue on the Convertible Debentures at 12% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears, in cash. The Convertible Debentures will be repaid in cash on the Maturity Date.

The net proceeds from the Offering will be used to fund field compression facilities in Uzbekistan modular LNG facilities in Kazakhstan, working capital and general corporate purposes.

• Field Compression — Uzbekistan: Due to the strong results from the recent horizontal drilling program at Kumli, Condor is now producing more gas into a gathering system that was designed around lower-rate legacy wells. As production from the new high-rate horizontals increases, higher gathering and downstream pipeline pressures can back out production from the lower-pressure legacy wells. Condor is therefore installing field booster compression to lower gathering-system pressure, improve production reliability and help maintain output from the existing well base. Condor has awarded the contract for a 1,200 kW booster compressor, with engineering underway, an estimated cost of approximately US$25.3 million, and commissioning targeted for Q2 2027.
• First LNG Facility — Saryozek, Kazakhstan: Condor is developing its first modular LNG facility at Saryozek, with Module 1 designed to produce approximately 48,000 gallons (80 MT) per day of LNG. Fabrication of the liquefaction unit has been completed, and the fully assembled unit is undergoing final pressure and acceptance testing ahead of shipment to Kazakhstan, with first LNG production still targeted for Q2 2027. Condor has secured 20 hectares at Saryozek through July 2059 and is finalizing LNG offtake arrangements, with potential end markets including rail locomotives, trucking, mining equipment and other diesel-intensive applications.

As of June 30, 2026, Condor had incurred C$9.7 million on the first LNG project, including C$9.0 million of PP&E and C$0.7 million related to the third gas allocation. The company estimates that a further US$21.9 million is required to complete construction and commissioning, including ancillary equipment, feed-gas hookup and piping, power generation, electrical infrastructure, storage, loading facilities and rolling stock.

In connection with the Offering, the Company intends to file a prospectus supplement (the "Prospectus Supplement") to the Company's short form base shelf prospectus dated March 18, 2026 (the "Shelf Prospectus"), with securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces of Canada (except Québec) within two business days. The Shelf Prospectus as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement (the "Prospectus") will contain important and detailed information about the Company and the Offering. Prospective investors should read the Prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference therein and the other documents the Company has filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca before making an investment decision. The Convertible Debentures to be issued pursuant to the Offering will be immediately "free trading" under applicable securities laws.

The Non-Brokered Private Placement will be offered by way of private placement in each of the provinces of Canada and may also be offered in those other jurisdictions where the Non-Brokered Private Placement can lawfully be made, including the United States under applicable private placement exemptions.

The closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about the week of October 12, 2026 (the "Closing"), or on such other date as agreed upon between the Company and the Agents, and is subject to the Company receiving all necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") to list, on the date of Closing, the Convertible Debentures and the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Debentures. In addition, the Company will make commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the necessary approvals to list the Convertible Debentures on the TSX.

In connection with the Offering, the Company will pay to the Agents a cash commission equal to 6% of the gross proceeds of the Offering.
