Boss response to Morning Star

In their press releases dated August 19, 2013 and August 28, 2013, Morning Star
Resources Ltd. ("Morning Star") and Anthony Beruschi ("Beruschi") have claimed
that the Board of Directors of Boss Power Corp. (TSX VENTURE:BPU) ("Boss Power"
or the "Company") has "failed to make a genuine effort" to reach a settlement
with Beruschi over certain properties (the "B Claims"), putting at risk the
proceeds of Boss' $30 million settlement with the Province of British Columbia
(the "Settlement" and the "Settlement Proceeds") arising from the expropriation
of the Blizzard Uranium Properties.


Beruschi's unwillingness to reasonably cooperate with Boss to complete the
Settlement is putting the Settlement at risk, and not any failure on the part of
Boss' Board. As outlined in the Company's August 27, 2013 press release, Boss
has made extensive efforts to complete the Settlement, pursuing both
negotiations and court proceedings. Beruschi has refused to agree to any of
these measures, preferring, management believes, to leverage the risk to the
Settlement to extract a better deal for himself at the expense of the Company's
other shareholders. Morning Star and Beruschi's threats to replace the Board are
an escalation of the same tactics. 


As part of the Settlement, the Province requires Boss to deliver title to all of
the mineral claims referred to in the Company's claim against the Province.
Beruschi, the beneficial owner of the B Claims, despite having approved the
Settlement while a director of Boss, has refused to agree to allow Boss to
deliver title to the B Claims to the Province. The B Claims are not known to
contain any proven mineral resource. They include mineral claims known as the
"Hydraulic Lake Claims" that a 2005 Declaration of Trust prepared for Beruschi
states "are likely of no real value".


As it has sought to negotiate with Beruschi, the Company has also pursued court
proceedings in which the Province would pay the Settlement Proceeds into court,
where they would be held pending a determination of any legal claims to them
made by third parties. This would remove the risk to the completion of the
Settlement. Of the interested parties, only Beruschi opposes this result. The
application for a court order authorizing the payment of the Settlement Proceeds
into court was scheduled for June 2013 but was postponed due to Beruschi's
counsel's illness. Beruschi subsequently discharged his counsel and is acting on
his own behalf. The Company is cooperating with the Province in seeking a new
hearing date for the application.


In Morning Star's most recent press release Beruschi expresses confidence that
once the Board is removed from office, he and the Company "can very quickly
reach a fair and reasonable solution" that will allow delivery of the B Claims
to close the Settlement "for the benefit of all Boss' shareholders". While the
inherent conflict of Beruschi negotiating with the Board he proposes to nominate
may seem beneficial and desirable to Beruschi, it is clearly not in the best
interest of the remainder of the Boss shareholders. 


Annual General and Special Meeting/Adoption of Advance Notice Policy

Boss is pleased to announce that it will hold an annual general and special
meeting (the "Meeting") on November 14, 2013. The record date for the Meeting
will be October 10, 2013. 


The Company further announces the approval by its Board of Directors of an
advance notice policy (the "Policy") effective as of September 12, 2013 The
purpose of the Policy is to (i) facilitate an orderly and efficient annual
general or, where the need arises, special meeting, process, (ii) ensure that
all shareholders receive adequate notice of director nominations and sufficient
information regarding all director nominees, and (iii) allow shareholders to
register an informed vote after having been afforded reasonable time for
appropriate deliberation.


The Policy, among other things, includes a provision that requires advance
notice to the Company in certain circumstances where nominations of persons for
election to the Board of Directors are made by shareholders of the Company. The
Policy fixes a deadline by which director nominations must be submitted to the
Company prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders and sets forth
the information that must be included in the notice to the Company for the
notice to be in proper written form.


In the case of an annual meeting of shareholders, notice to the Company must be
made not less than 30 days nor more than 65 days prior to the date of the annual
meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting is to be
held on a date that is less than 50 days after the date on which the first
public announcement of the date of the annual meeting was made, notice may be
made not later than the close of business on the 10th day following such public
announcement. Accordingly, the deadline for notice of director nominations for
the Meeting is October 14, 2013.


In the case of a special meeting of shareholders, which is not also an annual
meeting, called for the purpose of electing directors (whether or not called for
other purposes), notice to the Company must be made not later than the close of
business on the 15th day following the day on which the first public
announcement of the date of the special meeting was made.


Shareholder approval of the Policy will be sought at the Meeting and the Policy
will apply to the nomination of directors at the Meeting.
