+Added: and subject to prior approval of the TSX-V.
+Added: In any event, the number of bonus warrants issued or issuable to Monetary Metals will not
+Added: exceed, in the aggregate, the maximum of 85,715 allowable under the MM NPA.
+Added: The MM NPA and the MM Note are secured by security interests
+Added: over all our and Silver Valley’s assets, properties and undertakings, in form and scope similar to the security held by Sprott and the security held by Teck.
+Added: to Existing Security and Intercreditor Arrangements
+Added: to existing security arrangements, we have granted security interests to Sprott, Monetary Metals, and MineWater LLC (“MineWater,”
+Added: and together with Sprott and Monetary Metals, the “Original Intercreditor Parties”) over all our and Silver Valley’s
+Added: the assets, properties and undertakings.
+Added: On June 5, 2025, in connection with the existing security and intercreditor arrangements among
+Added: the Original Intercreditor Parties and us, the parties amended and restated such arrangements to, among other things, (i) reflect the
+Added: termination of the Metals Purchase Agreement and other applicable Capital Restructuring Transactions;

+Added: connection with the transactions described herein (including the Sprott Subscription), Sprott was issued an aggregate of 742,294 shares
+Added: of our common stock, 142,858 Warrants and convertible debentures of which the principal amount is convertible into up to 1,094,858 shares
+Added: of our common stock.
+Added: As a result, Sprott now owns or exercises control over approximately 29.6% of the issued and outstanding shares
+Added: of our common stock (or, assuming the exercise of all warrants and the conversion of the full principal amount of the convertible debentures
+Added: now held by Sprott, approximately 39.1% on a partially diluted basis) and is considered a “Control Person” of us.
+Added: the Stockholder Consent for, among other things, the restructuring transactions with Sprott and the Sprott Subscription, including the
+Added: creation of Sprott as a Control Person of us, in satisfaction of the applicable shareholder approval requirements of the TSX-V.
+Added: that Sprott is a “Non-Arm’s Length Party” (as such term is defined in the policies of the TSX-V), the amendment
+Added: and restatement of the Debt Facility and the granting of the Second Royalty each constituted a “Reviewable Disposition” under
+Added: TSX-V Policy 5.3 – Acquisitions and Dispositions of Non-Cash Assets and were therefore subject to the TSX-V requirement
+Added: to provide evidence of value.
+Added: We satisfied this requirement by way of the Stockholder Consent.

+Added: respectively, of ours or Silver Valley through the issuance of equity securities at the Offering Price.
+Added: On June 5, 2025, concurrently
+Added: with the closing of the Equity Offerings, we entered into debt settlement agreements (collectively, the “Debt Settlement Agreements”)

+Added: Units to MineWater, as further described herein;
+Added: shares of our common stock to four of our directors (the “Participating Directors”) for their services for the period
+Added: beginning on March 1, 2025, and ending on April 30, 2025 (collectively, the “Director Services”) in lieu of the director cash
+Added: compensation.
+Added: Given that the amounts owed for the Director Services exceed the limits under the TSX-V policies in respect of debt
+Added: settlements to non-arm’s length parties (being a maximum of C$5,000 per person and, in the aggregate, C$10,000 per issuer),
+Added: we obtained shareholder approval under the Stockholder Consent for the issuance of shares of our common stock to the Participating
+Added: Directors prior to issuance;
