On May 21, 2026, Perpetua Resources Corp. (the "<u>Company</u>") announced that the board of the Export-Import Bank of the United States ("<u>EXIM</u>") has unanimously approved a $2.9 billion senior secured long-term loan ("<u>Loan</u>") under the Make More in America Initiative ("<u>MMIA</u>") to support the development of the Company's Stibnite Gold Project ("<u>Stibnite</u>" or "<u>Project</u>"). EXIM's approval comes after extensive technical, financial, environmental and social due diligence and a 25-day notice period to Congress.

The Loan will be available upon completion of definitive documentation and satisfaction of customary conditions precedent, which is expected to occur in the second half of 2026. The Loan is to be structured as a 13-year senior secured credit facility of $2.9 billion, consisting of an upfront facility of $2.4 billion with the remainder to cover capitalized interest during construction and EXIM's exposure fee. The increase in the principal amount of the Loan compared to the initial EXIM Board review primarily relates to adding an option to move certain planned equipment financing from a third-party financing company into the EXIM Loan.

Interest on the Loan is to be set at the applicable long-dated U.S. Treasury bond rate plus 100 basis points and will be fixed at the time of the first drawdown. Scheduled repayments are anticipated to commence in 2030.

<u>Cautionary Statement</u>

*Investors should be aware that funding under the EXIM loan is subject to completion of definitive documentation and satisfaction of conditions precedent. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully negotiate definitive loan documents to close the loan or that, if closed, any funding provided by U.S. EXIM will be sufficient for us to construct the Project. Further, release of funding under the loan would be subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and covenants by the Company.*

 

*Statements contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K ("<u>Current Repor</u>t") that are not historical facts are "forward-looking information" or "forward-looking statements" (collectively, "<u>Forward-Looking Information</u>") within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation and the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-Looking Information includes, but is not limited to, disclosure regarding the, anticipated timing, documentation, closing and funding of the Company's proposed U.S. EXIM financing and the final terms of the proposed U.S. EXIM financing; timing of anticipated milestones related to the Project and financing; and ongoing funding and anticipated liquidity.*
