A copy of the Purchase Agreement and the Disposition Agreement will be available under the Company's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca.
In accordance with TSXV Policy 5.3 – Acquisitions and Dispositions of Non- Cash Assets ("Policy 5.3"), the trading of the common shares of the Company on the TSXV was halted on September 29, 2025, pending the receipt and review of acceptable documentation pursuant to Policy 5.3 as the Acquisition is a "Fundamental Acquisition" for the Company, as defined in Policy 5.3.
Related Party Transaction
As Mako and Sailfish have a common control person, the Disposition will constitute a "related party transaction" within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company is relying on the exemption from the formal valuation pursuant to subsection 5.5(b) of MI 61-101 as the common shares of the Company are not listed on a specified market. The Company is not exempt from minority shareholder approval requirements and disinterested shareholder approval will be required for the Mako Agreement pursuant to MI 61-101 and the policies of the TSXV.
The Company intends to mail a management information circular ("Circular") to shareholders in respect of a shareholders meeting to be held in connection with the approval of the Disposition Agreement in the coming weeks.

The Wexford Loan will include customary positive and negative covenants for a transaction of this nature and remains subject to acceptance of the TSXV. The security will cover all assets and property of the Company including, without limitation, the membership interest in Mt. Hamilton LLC and an assignment of the Company's Spring Valley royalties, but will exclude any Mexican or Nicaraguan security. The proceeds will be used to fund the purchase price for the Acquisition.
In the event the Company is unable to obtain the required regulatory and shareholder approvals in connection with the Disposition, Wexford will elect to receive the transfer of the membership interest in Mt. Hamilton LLC as full repayment of all obligations owed and outstanding under the Wexford Loan and the Credit Agreement (defined below).
The Wexford Loan will be governed by a credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") to be entered into on the date on which all conditions precedent to closing under the Purchase Agreement have been satisfied (the "Closing Date"). Upon execution of the Credit Agreement, the Company will issue a subsequent news release containing details of the Credit Agreement and any additional terms of the Wexford Loan.
Related Party Transaction
The Wexford Loan constitutes a "related party transaction" within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101") due to the fact that Wexford is a control person of the Company. The Company is not required to obtain a formal valuation pursuant to section 5.4 of MI 61-101, which only requires a formal valuation if a "related party transaction" falls within paragraphs (a) to (g) of that definition. The Company is relying on the exemption to obtain minority shareholder approval pursuant to subsection 5.7(1)(f) of MI 61-101, as the Wexford Loan is deemed to create a new loan or credit facility, and such credit facility is on reasonable commercial terms that are not less advantageous to the Company than if the loan or credit facility were obtained from a person dealing at arm's length with the Company, and the loan or credit facility is not convertible, directly or indirectly, into equity or voting securities of the Company or a subsidiary, or otherwise participating in nature, or repayable, as to principle or interest, directly or indirectly, in equity or voting securities of the Company or a subsidiary.
Special Committee
The Company formed a special committee comprised of Walter Reich, Alessandro Palladino and Paolo Lostritto to assist with the Company's review of the Wexford Loan and the Mako Agreement. The Special Committee unanimously recommended that the board of directors of the Company (the "Board") approve the Wexford Loan and the Mako Agreement. After receiving legal and financial advice, the recommendation of the Special Committee and after taking into account the alternatives available to the Company, the Board unanimously determined that the Wexford Loan and Mako Agreement are in the best interests of the Company and is fair to the Company's securityholders.
