**Up to US$100,000,000** 

**Common Shares** 

------

This Prospectus Supplement, together with the accompanying Prospectus, qualifies the distribution (the "**Offering**") of common shares (the "**Common Shares**" and each Common Share being qualified hereunder, an "**Offered Share**") of First Majestic Silver Corp. ("**First Majestic**" or the "**Company**") having an aggregate offering price of up to US$100,000,000. First Majestic has entered into an equity distribution agreement dated February 23, 2023 (the "**Equity Distribution Agreement**") with BMO Capital Markets Corp. ("**BMO**") and TD Securities (USA) LLC ("**TD**" and together with BMO, the "**Agents**") pursuant to which First Majestic may distribute Offered Shares from time to time through the Agents, as agent or as principal for the distribution of the Offered Shares, in accordance with the terms of the Equity Distribution Agreement. See "Plan of Distribution".

The outstanding Common Shares are listed for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "**TSX**") under the symbol "FR" and on the New York Stock Exchange (the "**NYSE**") under the symbol "AG". On February 22, 2023, the last trading day on the TSX before the date of this Prospectus Supplement, the closing trading price of the Common Shares on the TSX was C$9.42, per Common Share. On February 22, 2023, the last trading day on the NYSE before the date of this Prospectus Supplement, the closing trading price of the Common Shares on the NYSE was US$6.96, per Common Share. The TSX has conditionally approved the listing of the Offered Shares offered hereunder, subject to the Company fulfilling all of the listing requirements of the TSX. In addition, the NYSE has approved the listing of the Offered Shares offered hereunder.

**First Majestic is permitted, under a multi-jurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the securities regulatory authorities in Canada and the United States, to prepare this Prospectus Supplement in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Canada. Prospective investors in the United States should be aware that such requirements are different from those of the United States. The financial statements incorporated by reference herein have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and thus may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.**

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
**The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under the United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that the Company is governed by the laws of British Columbia, Canada, that some or all of its officers and directors are residents of a foreign country, that some or all of the experts named in this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus are, and the experts and Agents named herein and in the Prospectus may be, residents of a foreign country, and a substantial portion of the assets of the Company and said persons may be located outside of the United States.** 

**THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE "SEC") NOR ANY STATE OR CANADIAN SECURITIES COMMISSION OR REGULATORY AUTHORITY NOR HAS THE SEC OR ANY STATE OR CANADIAN SECURITIES COMMISSION OR REGULATORY AUTHORITY PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT OR THE ACCOMPANYING PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE.** 

**Prospective investors should be aware that the acquisition, holding or disposition of the Common Shares may have tax consequences in Canada and the United States. Such consequences for investors who are resident in, or citizens of, the United States may not be described fully herein. Prospective investors should read the tax discussion contained in this Prospectus Supplement under the heading "Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations" and should consult their own tax advisor with respect to their own particular circumstances.** 

Sales of Offered Shares, if any, under this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus are anticipated to be made in transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in National Instrument 44-102- *Shelf Distributions* ("**NI 44-102**"), including sales made directly on the NYSE or any other recognized marketplace upon which the Common Shares are listed or quoted or where the Common Shares are traded in the United States. No Offered Shares will be offered or sold in Canada on the TSX or any other trading market in Canada. If expressly authorized by the Company, the Agents may also sell Offered Shares in privately negotiated transactions in the United States. The sales, if any, of Offered Shares made under the Equity Distribution Agreement will be made by means of ordinary brokers' transactions on the NYSE at market prices, or as otherwise agreed upon by the Company and the Agents. As a result, prices may vary as between purchasers and during the period of distribution. **There is no minimum amount of funds that must be raised under the Offering. As a result, the Offering could be terminated after only raising a small portion of the offering amount set out above, or none at all.** See "Plan of Distribution".

**In connection with the Offering, the Company may be considered to be a "connected issuer" within the meaning of National Instrument 33-105 – *Underwriting Conflicts* (**"**NI 33-105**"**) to each of the Agents, separately.** An affiliate of BMO and an affiliate of TD are each members of a syndicate of lenders to the Company pursuant to the Revolving Facility (as defined herein). See "Plan of Distribution".

The Company will pay each Agent a commission of up to 2.0% of the gross sales price per Offered Share sold through such Agent as the Company's agent under the Equity Distribution Agreement.

**Investing in the Offered Shares is subject to certain risks that should be considered carefully by prospective purchasers. Please see "Risk Factors" in the Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus and the risk factors in the Company's documents which are incorporated by reference herein for a description of risks involved in an investment in Offered Shares.**

**IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT INFORMATION IN THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT** 

This document is in two parts. The first part is this Prospectus Supplement, which describes the specific terms of the Offering and also adds to and updates information contained in the accompanying Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein. The second part is the accompanying Prospectus, which provides more general information. If the description of the Common Shares varies between this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus, investors should rely on the information in this Prospectus Supplement. Before you invest, you should carefully read this Prospectus Supplement, the accompanying Prospectus, all information incorporated by reference herein and therein, as well as the additional information described under "Where You Can Find Additional Information" in this Prospectus Supplement. These documents contain information you should consider when making your investment decision. This Prospectus Supplement may add, update or change information contained in the accompanying Prospectus or any of the documents incorporated by reference therein. To the extent that any statement made in this Prospectus Supplement is inconsistent with statements made in the accompanying Prospectus or any documents incorporated by reference therein filed prior to the date of this Prospectus Supplement, the statements made in this Prospectus Supplement will be deemed to modify or supersede those made in the accompanying Prospectus and such documents incorporated by reference therein.

You should rely only on the information contained or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus. The Company has not, and the Agents have not, authorized any other person to provide you with different information. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. The Company is offering to sell, and seeking offers to buy, Offered Shares only in jurisdictions where offers and sales are permitted. The distribution of this Prospectus Supplement and the Offering in certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law. You should assume that the information contained in this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus, as well as information filed with the SEC and with the securities regulatory authority in each of the provinces of Canada other than Québec that is incorporated by reference herein and in the accompanying Prospectus, is accurate only as of its respective date. The Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates.

This Prospectus Supplement does not constitute, and may not be used in connection with, an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities offered by this Prospectus Supplement by any person in any jurisdiction in which it is unlawful for such person to make such an offer or solicitation.

This Prospectus Supplement is deemed to be incorporated by reference into the Prospectus solely for the purposes of the Offering. Other documents are also incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Prospectus Supplement and into the Prospectus. See "Documents Incorporated by Reference".

**FINANCIAL INFORMATION** 

Unless otherwise indicated, all financial information included and incorporated by reference in this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus is determined using IFRS, which differs from United States generally accepted accounting principles and therefore may not be comparable in all material respects to financial information prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• other statements identified as such in the documents incorporated by reference herein.

All statements other than statements of historical fact may be forward-looking statements. Statements concerning Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resource estimates may also be deemed to constitute forward-looking statements to the extent that they involve estimates of the mineralization that will be encountered as and if the property is developed, and in the case of Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources or Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves, such statements reflect the conclusion based on certain assumptions that the mineral deposit can be economically exploited.

Actual results or events may differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties relating to, among other things, global and local economic conditions, including inflation and risk of economic downturn, environmental and health and safety risks, including public health threats and climate related risks, changes in commodity prices and, particularly, silver and gold prices, changes in exchange rates and interest rates, access to skilled mining development and mill production personnel, labour relations, costs of labour, relations with local communities and aboriginal groups, results of exploration and development activities, accuracy of reserve and resource estimates and the calculation of silver recovery, uninsured risks, defects in title, availability and costs of materials and equipment, inability to meet future financing needs on acceptable terms, risks relating to declaration, timing and payment of dividends, availability of strategic alternatives, changes in national or local governments, security risks, the impact of the newly adopted Mexican outsourcing legislation, risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic ("**COVID-19**") including any resurgence thereof or changes in applicable legislation or application thereof, political and country risks, including risks associated with the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine, timeliness of government approvals, results of litigation including appeals of judgements, resolutions of claims and arbitration proceedings, negotiations and regulatory proceedings, availability of time on court calendars in Canada and elsewhere, the recognition of Canadian judgements under Mexican law, the possibility of settlement discussions and the insufficiency of a defendant's assets to satisfy any judgement amount, assessments by government agencies, actual performance of facilities, equipment, processes relative to specifications and expectations and unanticipated environmental impacts on operations, and outcomes of tax assessments in México. This is not an exhaustive list of the risks and other factors that may affect any of the Company's forward-looking statements. Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to, the risk factors referred to under "Risk Factors" in this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus, as well as those described in the documents incorporated by reference herein, and in particular under the heading "Risk Factors" in the Annual Information Form. The Company believes that the expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this Prospectus Supplement or the accompanying Prospectus, including the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein, should not be unduly relied upon. These statements speak only as of the date of this Prospectus Supplement or as of the date specified in the documents incorporated by reference in this Prospectus Supplement, as the case may be. The Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by applicable laws. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

**SUMMARY** 

*This summary highlights certain information about the Company, the Offering and selected information contained elsewhere in or incorporated by reference into this Prospectus Supplement or the accompanying Prospectus. This summary is not complete and does not contain all of the information that you should consider before deciding whether to invest in the Offered Shares. For a more complete understanding of the Company and the Offering, the Company encourages you to read and consider carefully the more detailed information in this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus, including the information incorporated by reference in this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus, and in particular, the information under the heading "Risk Factors" in this Prospectus Supplement. All capitalized terms used in this summary refer to definitions contained elsewhere in this Prospectus Supplement or the accompanying Prospectus, as applicable.* 

**Overview** 

First Majestic is in the business of the production, development, exploration and acquisition of mineral properties with a focus on precious metals production in North America. As such, the Company's business is dependent on foreign operations in México and the United States.

The Company currently owns and operates four producing mines:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. the San Dimas Silver/Gold Mine in Durango State, Mexico;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. the Santa Elena Silver/Gold Mine in Sonora State, Mexico;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. the La Encantada Silver Mine in Coahuila State, Mexico ()"**La Encantada** "); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. the Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine located in Elko County, Nevada ()"**Jerritt Canyon** ").

The Company also owns several non-material mines which are under care and maintenance:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. the San Martín Silver Mine in Jalisco State;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. the La Parrilla Silver Mine in Durango State;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. the Del Toro Silver Mine in Zacatecas State; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. the La Guitarra Silver Mine in México State.

The Company also owns two advanced-stage silver development projects in México: the La Luz Silver Project in San Luis Potosi State and La Joya Silver Project in Durango State (currently under option), as well as a number of exploration projects in México. On May 24, 2022, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement with Sierra Madre Gold & Silver Ltd. pursuant to which it agreed to sell all of the shares of La Guitarra Compaňia S.A. de C.V., its wholly owned subsidiary which owns the La Guitarra Silver Mine. On December 7, 2022, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with Golden Tag Resources Ltd. to sell all of the assets comprising the La Parrilla Silver Mine. Closing of each such transaction is subject to certain conditions and remains pending. See "Recent Developments" below.

The Company does not consider its mines under care and maintenance or its advanced-stage silver development projects to be material properties for the purposes of National Instrument 51-102 – *Continuous Disclosure Obligations* or NI 43-101. The Mineral Resources and Reserves reported in this Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein represent the most up to date estimates completed for the Company's operations and properties. Investors are cautioned against relying on such Mineral Resource and Reserve estimates since these estimates are based on certain assumptions regarding future events and performance such as: commodity prices, operating costs, taxes, metallurgical performance and commercial terms. Interpretations and Resource and Reserve estimates are based on limited sampling information that may not be representative of the mineral deposits.

**RISK FACTORS** 

Before deciding to invest in the Offered Shares, prospective purchasers of the Offered Shares should consider carefully the risk factors and the other information contained in this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein before purchasing the Offered Shares. An investment in the Offered Shares is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Information regarding the risks affecting the Company and its business is provided in the documents incorporated by reference in this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus, including in the Annual Information Form under the heading "General Development of the Business—Risk Factors". Additional risks and uncertainties not known to the Company or that management currently deems immaterial may also impair the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. See "Documents Incorporated by Reference".

**No Assurance of Active or Liquid Market** 

No assurance can be given that an active or liquid trading market for the Common Shares will be sustained. If an active or liquid market for the Common Shares fails to be sustained, the prices at which such shares trade may be adversely affected. Whether or not the Common Shares will trade at lower prices depends on many factors, including the liquidity of the Common Shares, precious metals prices, prevailing interest rates and the markets for similar securities, general economic conditions and the Company's financial condition, historic financial performance and future prospects.

If the Offered Shares are traded after their initial issue, they may trade at a discount from their initial offering prices depending on the market and other factors including general economic conditions and the Company's financial condition. There can be no assurance as to the liquidity of the trading market for the Common Shares.

**Public Markets and Share Prices** 

The market price of the Offered Shares that become listed and posted for trading on the TSX, NYSE or any other stock exchange could be subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in the Company's financial results or other factors. In addition, fluctuations in the stock market may adversely affect the market price of the Offered Shares that become listed and posted for trading on a stock exchange regardless of the financial performance of the Company. Securities markets have also experienced significant price and volume fluctuations from time to time. In some instances, these fluctuations have been unrelated or disproportionate to the financial performance of issuers. Market fluctuations may adversely impact the market price of the Offered Shares that become listed and posted for trading on a stock exchange. There can be no assurance of the price at which the Offered Shares that become listed and posted for trading on a stock exchange will trade.

**Additional Issuances and Dilution** 

The Company may issue and sell additional securities of the Company from time to time. The Company cannot predict the size of future issuances of securities of the Company or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of securities will have on the market price of any securities of the Company that are issued and outstanding from time to time. Sales or issuances of substantial amounts of securities of the Company, or the perception that such sales could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices for the securities of the Company that are issued and outstanding from time to time. With any additional sale or issuance of securities of the Company, holders will suffer dilution with respect to voting power and may experience dilution in the Company's earnings per share. Moreover, this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus may create a perceived risk of dilution resulting in downward pressure on the price of the Company's issued and outstanding Common Shares, which could contribute to progressive declines in the prices of such securities.

**There is No Certainty Regarding the Net Proceeds to the Company** 

There is no certainty that US$100,000,000 will be raised under the Offering. The Agents have agreed to use their commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Offered Shares when and to the extent requested by the Company, but the Company is not required to request the sale of the maximum amount offered or any amount and, if the Company requests a sale, the Agents are not obligated to purchase any Offered Shares that are not sold. As a result of the Offering being made on a commercially reasonable efforts basis with no minimum, and only as requested by the Company, the Company may raise substantially less than the maximum total offering amount or nothing at all.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
**The Company has Broad Discretion in the Use of the Net Proceeds from the Offering and May Use Them in Ways Other than as Described Herein** 

Management of the Company will have broad discretion with respect to the application of net proceeds received by the Company under the Offering, if any, and may spend such proceeds in ways that do not improve the Company's results of operations or enhance the value of the Common Shares or its other securities issued and outstanding from time to time. Any failure by management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business or cause the price of the securities of the Company issued and outstanding from time to time to decline. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine the Company's use of such proceeds, if any, the Company's ultimate use might vary substantially from its planned use.

**Proposed Dispositions** 

The Company cannot assure that the proposed disposition of the La Guitarra Mine and the La Parrilla Mine will complete or that such dispositions will ultimately benefit the Company. In addition, each of the purchase agreements for the sale of the La Guitarra Mine and the La Parrilla Mine contain extensive representations and warranties from the Company and a misrepresentation thereunder or breach by the Company of any of the other terms or conditions of either of these agreements could lead to potential liability, which may have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial performance, cash flow and results of operations.

**RECENT DEVELOPMENTS** 

On May 25, 2022, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement for the sale of all of the shares of La Guitarra Compaňia S.A. de C.V, the wholly owned subsidiary which owns and operates the La Guitarra Silver Mine, to Sierra Madre Gold & Silver Ltd. ("**Sierra Madre**"). The La Guitarra Silver Mine is currently on care and maintenance. Under the terms of the agreement, Sierra Madre has agreed to issue to the Company 69,063,076 Sierra Madre common shares at closing, with a deemed value of US$35 million. Closing of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of Mexican anti-trust approval.

At the Company's annual general meeting held on May 26, 2022, Raymond Polman was newly elected as a director of the Company.

On July 20, 2022, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement with the Agents pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 11,269,634 Common Shares for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately US$100 million (the "**2022 ATM Offering**"). The 2022 ATM Offering was made by way of a prospectus supplement dated July 20, 2022. Sales of Common Shares were made through "at-the-market distributions" as defined in NI 44-102, by means of ordinary brokers' transactions on the NYSE at prevailing market prices. No offers or sales of Common Shares were made in Canada on the TSX or other trading markets in Canada. The Company completed distributions under the 2022 ATM Offering on January 13, 2023.

On August 4, 2022 and November 9, 2022, the Company announced that its board of directors had approved the declaration of its quarterly common share dividend of US$0.0061 per share for the second and third quarters of 2022, respectively.

On December 21, 2022, the Company announced that it had sold a portfolio of royalty interests to Metalla Royalty & Streaming Ltd. ("**Metalla**") in exchange for common shares of Metalla. The royalty portfolio includes a 2% net smelter royalty on six of the Company's non-producing properties , a 2% net smelter royalty on the Plomosas Silver Project (owned by GR Silver Mining Ltd.) and a 100% gross value royalty ("**GVR**") on gold produced at the La Encantada, less the amount of any refining costs, which may not exceed 5% of the fair market value of the gold. The GVR is limited to the first 1,000 ounces of gold produced at La Encantada. In consideration for the sale, First Majestic received 4,168,056 common shares of Metalla that had a fair market value of US$21.5 million as of the closing date.

On December 7, 2022, the Company announced that it had entered into an asset purchase agreement to sell its 100% owned past producing La Parrilla Silver Mine to Golden Tag Resources Ltd. ("**Golden Tag**") for total consideration of up to US$33.5 million. On closing of the transaction, the Company will receive 143,673,684 Golden Tag shares at a deemed price of C$0.19 per share having an aggregate value of US$20 million and representing approximately 40% of the outstanding shares of Golden Tag, as well as up to US$13.5 million in either cash or shares in Golden Tag, payable in three deferred payments upon the occurrence of specific milestones. The Company has also agreed to purchase US$2.7 million of Golden Tag securities in a future Golden Tag equity financing of up to C$9 million. Closing of the foregoing transaction remains subject to Golden Tag obtaining the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and the Mexican Antitrust Commission, completion of the Golden Tag equity financing and other customary closing conditions.

(1) Indebtedness includes the book value of debt facilities and lease liabilities.

(2) Subsequent events include the share issuances through the 2022 ATM Offering in the month of January 2023.

**USE OF PROCEEDS** 

The net proceeds from the Offering, if any, are not determinable in light of the nature of the distribution. The net proceeds of any given distribution of Offered Shares through the Agents in an "at-the-market distribution" will represent the gross proceeds after deducting the applicable compensation payable to the Agents under the Equity Distribution Agreement and the expenses of the distribution.

The principal business objectives that the Company expects to accomplish using the net proceeds from the Offering, if any, together with the Company's current cash resources, are to develop and/or improve the Company's existing mines and to add to the Company's working capital.

**PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION** 

The Company has entered into the Equity Distribution Agreement with the Agents, as sales agents, under which the Company may offer and sell Offered Shares having an aggregate offering price of up to US$100,000,000 from time to time. Sales of Offered Shares, if any, will be made in transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in NI 44-102, including sales made directly on the NYSE or other trading markets for the Common Shares in the United States. No Offered Shares will be offered or sold in Canada on the TSX or on any other trading market in Canada. The sales, if any, of Offered Shares made under the Equity Distribution Agreement will be made by means of ordinary brokers' transactions on the NYSE at market prices, or as otherwise agreed upon by the Company and the Agents. As a result, price may vary as between purchasers and during the period of distribution. The Agents will not engage in any transactions that stabilize the price of the Common Shares.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
Under the terms of the Equity Distribution Agreement, the Company also may sell Common Shares to the Agents as principals for their own accounts at a price agreed upon at the time of sale. If the Company sells Common Shares to the Agents as principals, the Company will enter into a separate terms agreement with the Agents and the Company will describe this terms agreement in a separate prospectus supplement or pricing supplement.

The Company will designate the maximum amount of Offered Shares to be sold through an Agent on a daily basis or otherwise as the Company and such Agent agree and the minimum price per Offered Share at which such Offered Shares may be sold. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Distribution Agreement, the applicable Agent will use its reasonable efforts to sell on the Company's behalf all of the designated Offered Shares. The Company may instruct the applicable Agent not to sell any Offered Shares if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by the Company in any such instruction. The Company or the applicable Agent may suspend the offering of the Offered Shares at any time and from time to time by notifying the other party.

Each of the Company and the Agents has the right, by giving written notice as specified in the Equity Distribution Agreement, to terminate the Equity Distribution Agreement in its sole discretion at any time.

The applicable Agent will provide to the Company written confirmation following the close of trading on the NYSE each day in which Offered Shares are sold under the Equity Distribution Agreement. Each confirmation will include the number of Offered Shares sold on that day, the gross sales proceeds and the net proceeds to the Company (after transaction fees, if any, but before other expenses). The Company will report at least quarterly the number of Offered Shares sold through the Agents under the Equity Distribution Agreement, the net proceeds to the Company (before expenses) and the commissions of the Agents in connection with the sales of the Offered Shares.

The Company will pay each Agent a commission of up to 2.0% of the gross sales price per Offered Share sold through such Agent as the Company's agent under the Equity Distribution Agreement. The Company has agreed to reimburse the Agents for certain of their expenses.

Settlement for sales of Offered Shares will occur, unless the parties agree otherwise, on the second business day following the date on which any sales were made in return for payment of the net proceeds to the Company. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in an escrow, trust or similar arrangement. Sales of Offered Shares will be settled through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company or by such other means as the Company and the applicable Agent may agree upon.

The Agents are not registered as a dealer in any Canadian jurisdiction and, accordingly, are not permitted and will not, directly or indirectly, advertise or solicit offers to purchase any of the Offered Shares in Canada.

If the Company or any Agent has reason to believe that the Offered Shares are no longer "actively-traded securities" as defined under Rule 101(c)(l) of Regulation M under the Exchange Act, such party will promptly notify the others and sales of Offered Shares pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement or any terms agreement will be suspended until in the Company and Agents' collective judgment Rule 101(c)(1) or another exemptive provision has been satisfied.

The offering of Offered Shares pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the sale of all Offered Shares subject to the Equity Distribution Agreement; (ii) the termination of the Equity Distribution Agreement by the Company or by the Agents; or (iii) June 18, 2023.

In connection with the sale of the Offered Shares on the Company's behalf, each Agent will be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Act, and the compensation paid to the Agents may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. The Company has agreed to provide indemnification and contribution to the Agents against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the U.S. Securities Act. The Agents will not engage in any transactions that are intended to stabilize or maintain the price of the Common Shares. No underwriter or dealer involved in the distribution, no affiliate of such an underwriter or dealer and no person or company acting jointly or in concert with such an underwriter or dealer has over-allotted, or will over allot, Common Shares in connection with the distribution or effect any other transactions that are intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the Common Shares.

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
The TSX has conditionally approved the listing of the Offered Shares offered hereunder, subject to the Company fulfilling all of the listing requirements of the TSX. In addition, the NYSE has approved the listing of the Offered Shares offered hereunder.

**Selling Restrictions Outside of the United States** 

No action has been taken by the Company that would permit a public offering of the Offered Shares in any jurisdiction outside the United States where action for that purpose is required. The Offered Shares may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, nor may this Prospectus Supplement or any other offering material or advertisements in connection with the offer and sale of any such Offered Shares be distributed or published in any jurisdiction, except under circumstances that will result in compliance with the applicable rules and regulations of that jurisdiction. Persons into whose possession this Prospectus Supplement comes are advised to inform themselves about and to observe any restrictions relating to the Offering and the distribution of this Prospectus Supplement. This Prospectus Supplement does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any Offered Shares in any jurisdiction in which such an offer or a solicitation is unlawful.

**Relationship between the Company and the Agents (Conflicts of Interest)** 

The Agents and their affiliates have performed investment banking, lending, commercial banking and advisory services for the Company from time to time for which they have received customary fees and expenses. From time to time, the Agents and/or their affiliates may in the future engage in investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with the Company for which they would expect to receive customary fees and commissions.

In connection with the Offering, the Company may be considered to be a "connected issuer" (as defined in NI 33-105) to BMO under applicable Canadian securities legislation.

Bank of Montreal and The Toronto-Dominion Bank (together, the "**Lender Affiliates**") are "related issuers" (as defined in NI 33-105) of BMO and TD, respectively, and are members of a syndicate of lenders which extended the Company a revolving term credit facility in the principal amount of US$100,000,000 (the "**Revolving Facility**") pursuant to a second amended and restated credit agreement dated as of March 31, 2022**.** As of the date of this Prospectus Supplement the Company has drawn on the Revolving Facility in the amount of US$25,000,000. The Company is in compliance with the Revolving Facility and, other than a waiver of certain restrictive covenants in connection with the sale of the royalty portfolio to Metalla discussed above under "*Recent Developments*", there have been no waivers granted since execution. The financial position of the Company has not materially changed since the Revolving Facility was entered into. The obligations under the Revolving Facility are secured. The Company reserves the right to use certain proceeds of the Offering to reduce any indebtedness under the Revolving Facility.

The decision to distribute the Offered Shares, including the determination of the terms of the Offering, was made through arm's length negotiations between the Company and the Agents. The Lender Affiliates did not have any involvement in such decision or determination. As a consequence of the Offering, the Agents will receive their commission and, to the extent any of the proceeds of the Offering are applied to reduce any indebtedness under the Revolving Facility, the Lender Affiliates will receive their proportionate share of the repaid indebtedness.

As a result, the Agents or their Lender Affiliates may receive more than 5% of the net proceeds from the sale of the Offered Shares in the form of the repayment of any future indebtedness. Accordingly, the Offering is being made pursuant to Rule 5121 of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. Pursuant to this rule, the appointment of a qualified independent underwriter is not necessary in connection with the Offering, because the conditions of Rule 5121(a)(1)(B) are satisfied. The Agents and the Lender Affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of the Company's securities or financial instruments related to the Company's securities and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

**CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS** 

The following is a general summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to a U.S. Holder (as defined below) arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Offered Shares acquired pursuant to the Offering.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
This summary is for general information purposes only and does not purport to be a complete analysis or listing of all potential U.S. federal income tax considerations that may apply to a U.S. Holder arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Offered Shares. In addition, this summary does not take into account the individual facts and circumstances of any particular U.S. Holder that may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such U.S. Holder, including, without limitation, specific tax consequences to a U.S. Holder under an applicable income tax treaty. Accordingly, this summary is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, legal or U.S. federal income tax advice with respect to any U.S. Holder. This summary does not address the U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal net investment income, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and non-U.S. tax consequences to U.S. Holders of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Offered Shares. In addition, except as specifically set forth below, this summary does not discuss applicable tax reporting requirements. Each prospective U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income, U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal net investment income, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and non-U.S. tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Offered Shares.

No ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the "**IRS**") has been requested, or will be obtained, regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Offered Shares. This summary is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS is not precluded from taking a position that is different from, and contrary to, the positions taken in this summary. In addition, because the authorities on which this summary are based are subject to various interpretations, the IRS and the U.S. courts could disagree with one or more of the conclusions described in this summary.

**Scope of this Summary** 

***Authorities***

This summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "**Code**"), Treasury Regulations (whether final, temporary, or proposed), published rulings of the IRS, published administrative positions of the IRS, the Convention Between Canada and the United States of America with Respect to Taxes on Income and on Capital, signed September 26, 1980, as amended (the "**Canada-U.S. Tax Convention**"), and U.S. court decisions that are applicable, and, in each case, as in effect and available, as of the date of this document. Any of the authorities on which this summary is based could be changed in a material and adverse manner at any time, and any such change could be applied retroactively. This summary does not discuss the potential effects, whether adverse or beneficial, of any proposed legislation.

***U.S. Holders***

For purposes of this summary, the term "**U.S. Holder**" means a beneficial owner of Offered Shares acquired pursuant to the Offering that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) organized under
the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a trust that (i) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and the
control of one or more U.S. persons for all substantial decisions or (ii) has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

***U.S. Holders Subject to Special U.S. Federal Income Tax Rules Not Addressed***

This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to U.S. Holders that are subject to special provisions under the Code, including, but not limited to, U.S. Holders that: (a) are tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts, or other tax-deferred accounts; (b) are financial institutions, underwriters, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, or regulated investment companies; (c) are broker-dealers, dealers, or traders in securities or currencies that elect to apply a mark-to-market accounting method; (d) have a "functional currency" other than the U.S. dollar; (e) own Offered Shares as part of a straddle, hedging transaction, conversion transaction, constructive sale, or other integrated transaction; (f) acquire Offered Shares in connection with the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation for services; (g) hold Offered Shares other than as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment purposes); (h) are partnerships or other flow-through entities (and partners or other owners thereof); (i) are S corporations (and shareholders thereof); (j) are subject to taxing jurisdictions other than, or in addition to, the United States or otherwise hold Offered Shares in connection with a trade or business, permanent establishment, or fixed base outside the United States; (k) are subject to the alternative minimum tax; (l) are U.S. expatriates or former long-term residents of the United States; (m) are subject to special tax accounting rules; or (n) own, have owned or will own (directly, indirectly, or by attribution) 10% or more of the total combined voting power or value of the outstanding shares of the Company. U.S. Holders that are subject to special provisions under the Code, including, but not limited to, U.S. Holders described immediately above, should consult their own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income, U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal net investment income, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and non-U.S. tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Offered Shares.

If an entity or arrangement that is classified as a partnership (or other "pass-through" entity) for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds Offered Shares, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such entity and the partners (or other owners) of such entity generally will depend on the activities of the entity and the status of such partners (or owners). This summary does not address the tax consequences to any such partner (or owner). Partners (or other owners) of entities or arrangements that are classified as partnerships or as "pass-through" entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of Offered Shares.

**Ownership and Disposition of Offered Shares** 

The following discussion is subject in its entirety to the rules described below under the heading "Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules".

***Taxation of Distributions***

A U.S. Holder that receives a distribution, including a constructive distribution, with respect to an Offered Share will be required to include the amount of such distribution in gross income as a dividend (without reduction for any Canadian income tax withheld from such distribution) to the extent of the current or accumulated "earnings and profits" of the Company, as computed for U.S. federal income tax purposes. To the extent that a distribution exceeds the current and accumulated "earnings and profits" of the Company, such distribution will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of a U.S. Holder's tax basis in the Offered Shares and thereafter as gain from the sale or exchange of such Offered Shares (see "Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Offered Shares" below). However, the Company may not maintain the calculations of its earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles, and each U.S. Holder may have to assume that any distribution by the Company with respect to the Offered Shares will constitute dividend income. Dividends received on Offered Shares by corporate U.S. Holders generally will not be eligible for the "dividends received deduction" allowed to corporations under the Code with respect to dividends received from domestic corporations. Subject to applicable limitations and provided the Company is eligible for the benefits of the Canada-U.S. Tax Convention or the Offered Shares are readily tradable on a United States securities market, dividends paid by the Company to non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, generally will be eligible for the preferential tax rates applicable to long-term capital gains for dividends, provided certain holding period and other conditions are satisfied, including that the Company not be classified as a PFIC (as defined below) in the tax year of distribution or in the preceding tax year. The dividend rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the application of such rules.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
***Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Offered Shares***

A U.S. Holder will generally recognize gain or loss on the sale or other taxable disposition of Offered Shares in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (a) the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received and (b) such U.S. Holder's tax basis in such Offered Shares sold or otherwise disposed of. Any such gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss, which will be long-term capital gain or loss if, at the time of the sale or other disposition, such Offered Shares are held for more than one year.

Preferential tax rates apply to long-term capital gains of a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or trust. There are currently no preferential tax rates for long-term capital gains of a U.S. Holder that is a corporation. Deductions for capital losses are subject to significant limitations under the Code.

**Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules** 

If the Company were to constitute a "passive foreign investment company" ("**PFIC**") for any year during a U.S. Holder's holding period, then certain potentially adverse rules would affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to a U.S. Holder resulting from the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Offered Shares. The Company believes that it was not a PFIC for the prior tax year, and based on current business plans and financial expectations, the Company expects that it will not be a PFIC for the current tax year and expects that it will not be a PFIC for the foreseeable future. No opinion of legal counsel or ruling from the IRS concerning the status of the Company as a PFIC has been obtained or is currently planned to be requested. However, PFIC classification is fundamentally factual in nature, generally cannot be determined until the close of the tax year in question, and is determined annually. In addition, the analysis depends, in part, on the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules, which are subject to differing interpretations. Consequently, there can be no assurance that the Company has never been and will not become a PFIC for any tax year during which U.S. Holders hold Offered Shares.

In any year in which the Company is classified as a PFIC, a U.S. Holder will be required to file an annual report with the IRS containing such information as Treasury Regulations and/or other IRS guidance may require. In addition to penalties, a failure to satisfy such reporting requirements may result in an extension of the time period during which the IRS can assess a tax. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the requirements of filing such information returns under these rules, including the requirement to file an IRS Form 8621 annually.

The Company generally will be a PFIC if, after the application of certain "look-through" rules with respect to subsidiaries in which the Company holds at least 25% of the value of such subsidiary, for a tax year, (a) 75% or more of the gross income of the Company for such tax year is passive income (the "income test") or (b) 50% or more of the value of the Company's assets either produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income (the "asset test"), based on the quarterly average of the fair market value of such assets. "Gross income" generally includes all sales revenues less the cost of goods sold, plus income from investments and from incidental or outside operations or sources, and "passive income" generally includes, for example, dividends, interest, certain rents and royalties, certain gains from the sale of stock and securities, and certain gains from commodities transactions. Active business gains arising from the sale of commodities generally are excluded from passive income if substantially all of a foreign corporation's commodities are stock in trade or inventory, depreciable property used in a trade or business or supplies regularly used or consumed in the ordinary course of its trade or business, and certain other requirements are satisfied.

If the Company were a PFIC in any tax year during which a U.S. Holder held Offered Shares, such holder generally would be subject to special rules with respect to "excess distributions" made by the Company on the Offered Shares and with respect to gain from the disposition of Offered Shares. An "excess distribution" generally is defined as the excess of distributions with respect to the Offered Shares received by a U.S Holder in any tax year over 125% of the average annual distributions such U.S. Holder has received from the Company during the shorter of the three preceding tax years, or such U.S. Holder's holding period for the Offered Shares. Generally, a U.S. Holder would be required to allocate any excess distribution or gain from the disposition of the Offered Shares ratably over its holding period for the Offered Shares. Such amounts allocated to the year of the disposition or excess distribution would be taxed as ordinary income, and amounts allocated to prior tax years would be taxed as ordinary income at the highest tax rate in effect for each such year and an interest charge at a rate applicable to underpayments of tax would apply.

While there are U.S. federal income tax elections that sometimes can be made to mitigate these adverse tax consequences (including the "QEF Election" under Section 1295 of the Code and the "Mark-to-Market Election" under Section 1296 of the Code), such elections are available in limited circumstances and must be made in a timely manner.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
U.S. Holders should be aware that, for each tax year, if any, that the Company is a PFIC, the Company can provide no assurances that it will satisfy the record keeping requirements or make available to U.S. Holders the information such U.S. Holders require to make a QEF Election with respect to the Company or any subsidiary that also is classified as a PFIC.

Certain additional adverse rules may apply with respect to a U.S. Holder if the Company is a PFIC, regardless of whether the U.S. Holder makes a QEF Election. These rules include special rules that apply to the amount of foreign tax credit that a U.S. Holder may claim on a distribution from a PFIC. Subject to these special rules, foreign taxes paid with respect to any distribution in respect of stock in a PFIC are generally eligible for the foreign tax credit. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the potential application of the PFIC rules to the ownership and disposition of Offered Shares, and the availability of certain U.S. tax elections under the PFIC rules.

**Additional Considerations** 

***Receipt of Foreign Currency***

The amount of any distribution paid to a U.S. Holder in foreign currency, or on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of Offered Shares, generally will be equal to the U.S. dollar value of such foreign currency based on the exchange rate applicable on the date of receipt (regardless of whether such foreign currency is converted into U.S. dollars at that time). A U.S. Holder will have a basis in the foreign currency equal to its U.S. dollar value on the date of receipt. Any U.S. Holder who converts or otherwise disposes of the foreign currency after the date of receipt may have a foreign currency exchange gain or loss that would be treated as ordinary income or loss, and generally will be U.S. source income or loss for foreign tax credit purposes. Different rules apply to U.S. Holders who use the accrual method of tax accounting. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own U.S. tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of receiving, owning, and disposing of foreign currency.

***Foreign Tax Credit***

Dividends paid on the Offered Shares will be treated as foreign-source income, and generally will be treated as "passive category income" or "general category income" for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. The Code applies various complex limitations on the amount of foreign taxes that may be claimed as a credit by U.S. taxpayers. In addition, Treasury Regulations that apply to taxes paid or accrued (the "**Foreign Tax Credit Regulations**") impose additional requirements for Canadian withholding taxes to be eligible for a foreign tax credit, and there can be no assurance that those requirements will be satisfied.

Subject to the PFIC rules and the Foreign Tax Credit Regulations discussed above, a U.S. Holder that pays (whether directly or through withholding) Canadian income tax with respect to dividends paid on the Offered Shares generally will be entitled, at the election of such U.S. Holder, to receive either a deduction or a credit for such Canadian income tax. Generally, a credit will reduce a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability on a dollar-for-dollar basis, whereas a deduction will reduce a U.S. Holder's income that is subject to U.S. federal income tax. This election is made on a year-by-year basis and applies to all foreign taxes paid (whether directly or through withholding) by a U.S. Holder during a year. The foreign tax credit rules are complex and involve the application of rules that depend on a U.S. Holder's particular circumstances. Accordingly, each U.S. Holder should consult its own U.S. tax advisor regarding the foreign tax credit rules.

***Backup Withholding and Information Reporting***

Under U.S. federal income tax law and Treasury Regulations, certain categories of U.S. Holders must file information returns with respect to their investment in, or involvement in, a foreign corporation. For example, U.S. return disclosure obligations (and related penalties) are imposed on individuals who are U.S. Holders that hold certain specified foreign financial assets in excess of certain threshold amounts. The definition of specified foreign financial assets includes not only financial accounts maintained in foreign financial institutions, but also, unless held in accounts maintained by a financial institution, any stock or security issued by a non-U.S. person, any financial instrument or contract held for investment that has an issuer or counterparty other than a U.S. person and any interest in a foreign entity. U. S. Holders may be subject to these reporting requirements unless their Offered Shares are held in an account at certain financial institutions. Penalties for failure to file certain of these information returns are substantial. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the requirements of filing information returns, including the requirement to file an IRS Form 8938.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
Payments made within the U.S. or by a U.S. payor or U.S. middleman, of dividends on, and proceeds arising from the sale or other taxable disposition of, Offered Shares will generally be subject to information reporting and backup withholding tax, currently at the rate of 24%, if a U.S. Holder (a) fails to furnish such U.S. Holder's correct U.S. taxpayer identification number (generally on Form W-9), (b) furnishes an incorrect U.S. taxpayer identification number, (c) is notified by the IRS that such U.S. Holder has previously failed to properly report items subject to backup withholding tax, or (d) fails to certify, under penalty of perjury, that such U.S. Holder has furnished its correct U.S. taxpayer identification number and that the IRS has not notified such U.S. Holder that it is subject to backup withholding tax. However, certain exempt persons generally are excluded from these information reporting and backup withholding rules. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the U.S. backup withholding tax rules generally will be allowed as a credit against a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, or will be refunded, if such U.S. Holder furnishes required information to the IRS in a timely manner.

The discussion of reporting requirements set forth above is not intended to constitute a complete description of all reporting requirements that may apply to a U.S. Holder. A failure to satisfy certain reporting requirements may result in an extension of the time period during which the IRS can assess a tax, and under certain circumstances, such an extension may apply to assessments of amounts unrelated to any unsatisfied reporting requirement. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the information reporting and backup withholding rules.

**THE ABOVE SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE A COMPLETE ANALYSIS OF ALL TAX CONSIDERATIONS APPLICABLE TO U.S. HOLDERS WITH RESPECT TO THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP, AND DISPOSITION OF OFFERED SHARES. U.S. HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSIDERATIONS APPLICABLE TO THEM IN THEIR OWN PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.**

Please see "*Auditor, Transfer Agent and Registrar*" for a discussion of the interests of the Company's auditor involved in preparing this Prospectus.

**LEGAL MATTERS** 

Certain legal matters in connection with the Offering will be passed upon on behalf of the Company by Bennett Jones LLP, Vancouver, B.C., as to Canadian legal matters, and Dorsey & Whitney LLP, Vancouver, B.C. and Seattle, WA, as to United States legal matters. As of the date hereof, the partners and associates of Bennett Jones LLP own, directly or indirectly, less than 1% of the Common Shares and the partners and associates of Dorsey & Whitney LLP own, directly or indirectly, less than 1% of the Common Shares. In addition, certain legal matters in connection with the Offering will be passed upon for the Agents by Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, Vancouver, B.C., as to Canadian legal matters, and Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP, New York, NY, as to United States legal matters.

**ENFORCEABILITY OF CERTAIN CIVIL LIABILITIES** 

The Company is governed by the laws of British Columbia and its principal place of business is outside the United States. The majority of the directors and officers of the Company and the experts named under "Interests of Experts" in the Prospectus are resident outside of the United States and a substantial portion of the Company's assets and the assets of such persons are located outside of the United States. Consequently, it may be difficult for United States investors to effect service of process within the United States on the Company, its directors or officers or such experts, or to realize in the United States on judgments of courts of the United States predicated on civil liabilities under the U.S. Securities Act. Investors should not assume that Canadian courts would enforce judgments of United States courts obtained in actions against the Company or such persons predicated on the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws or the securities or "blue sky" laws of any state within the United States or would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against the Company or such persons predicated on the United States federal securities or any such state securities or "blue sky" laws. **A final judgment for a liquidated sum in favour of a private litigant granted by a United States court and predicated solely upon civil liability under United States federal securities laws would, subject to certain exceptions identified in the law of individual provinces of Canada, likely be enforceable in Canada if the United States court in which the judgment was obtained had a basis for jurisdiction in the matter that would be recognized by the domestic Canadian court for the same purposes. There is a significant risk that a given Canadian court may not have jurisdiction or may decline jurisdiction over a claim based solely upon United States federal securities law on application of the conflict of laws principles of the province in Canada in which the claim is brought.**

**The Company filed with the SEC, concurrently with the Registration Statement, an appointment of agent for service of process on Form F-X. Under the Form F-X, the Company appointed Puglisi & Associates, with an address at 850 Library Avenue, Suite 204, Newark, Delaware 19711, as its agent for service of process in the United States in connection with any investigation or administrative proceeding conducted by the SEC, and any civil suit or action brought against or involving the Company in a United States court arising out of or related to or concerning the offering of the Offered Shares under the Registration Statement.** 

**AUDITOR, TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR** 

The auditor of the Company is Deloitte LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, of 2200- 410 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6B 0S7. The Annual Financial Statements incorporated in this Prospectus by reference and the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022 have been audited by Deloitte LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their reports, which are incorporated herein by reference. Such financial statements have been so incorporated in reliance upon the reports of such firm given upon their authority as experts in accounting and auditing. Deloitte LLP is independent with respect to the Company within the meaning of the Rules of Professional Conduct of the Chartered Professional Accountants of British Columbia and within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Act and the applicable rules and regulations adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).

This short form base shelf prospectus (the "**Prospectus**") relates to the offer and sale by First Majestic Silver Corp. ("**First Majestic**", the "**Company**", "we" or "us") from time to time of common shares (the "**Common Shares**"), subscription receipts (the "**Subscription Receipts**"), warrants to purchase other Securities (as defined herein) (the "**Warrants**") and units (the "**Units**") comprised of one or more of any of the other securities or any combination of such securities **(all of the foregoing, collectively, the "Securities") or any combination thereof in one or more series or issuances** up to an aggregate total offering price of US$300,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in Canadian dollars or any other currencies)during the 25-month period that this Prospectus, including any amendments thereto, remains effective. The Securities may be offered separately or together, in amounts, at prices and on terms to be determined based on market conditions at the time of sale and set forth in an accompanying shelf prospectus supplement (each, a "**Prospectus Supplement**"). In addition, the Securities may be offered and issued in consideration for the acquisition of other businesses, assets or securities by the Company or one of its subsidiaries. The consideration for any such acquisition may consist of the Securities separately, a combination of Securities or any combination of, among other things, Securities, cash and assumption of liabilities. One or more securityholders (each, a "**Selling Securityholder**") of the Company may also offer and sell Securities under this Prospectus. See "*Selling Securityholders*".

**First Majestic is permitted, under a multi-jurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the securities regulatory authorities in Canada and the United States, to prepare this Prospectus in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Canada. Prospective investors in the United States should be aware that such requirements are different from those of the United States. The financial statements incorporated by reference herein have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and thus may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.** 

**The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under the United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that the Company is governed by the laws of British Columbia, Canada, that some or all of its officers and directors are residents of a foreign country, that some or all of the experts named in this Prospectus are, and the underwriters, dealers or agents named in any Prospectus Supplement may be, residents of a foreign country, and a substantial portion of the assets of the Company and said persons may be located outside of the United States.** 

**THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE "SEC") NOR ANY STATE OR CANADIAN SECURITIES COMMISSION OR REGULATORY AUTHORITY NOR HAS THE SEC OR ANY STATE OR CANADIAN SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE.** 

**Prospective investors should be aware that the acquisition of the Securities may have tax consequences in Canada and the United States. Such consequences may not be described fully herein or in any applicable Prospectus Supplement. Prospective investors should read the tax discussion contained in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, if any, with respect to a particular offering of Securities.** 

The specific terms of the Securities with respect to a particular offering will be set out in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, including, where applicable: (i) in the case of Common Shares, the number of Common Shares offered, the offering price, whether the Common Shares are being offered for cash, and any other terms specific to the Common Shares; (ii) in the case of Warrants, the number of Warrants being offered, the offering price, whether the Warrants are being offered for cash, the designation, number and terms of the other Securities purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants, and any procedures that will result in the adjustment of those numbers, the exercise price, the dates and periods of exercise and any other terms specific to the Warrants being offered; (iii) in the case of Subscription Receipts, the number of Subscription Receipts being offered, the offering price, whether the Subscription Receipts are being offered for cash, the terms, conditions and procedures for the conversion of the Subscription Receipts into other Securities, the designation, number and terms of such other Securities, and any other terms specific to the Subscription Receipts; and (iv) in the case of Units, the number of Units being offered, the offering price and the number and terms of the Securities comprising the Units. See "Plan of Distribution". A Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities may include terms

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
pertaining to the Securities being offered thereunder that are not within the terms and parameters described in this Prospectus. Where required by statute, regulation or policy, and where Securities are offered in currencies other than Canadian dollars, appropriate disclosure of foreign exchange rates applicable to such Securities will be included in the Prospectus Supplement describing such Securities.

All applicable shelf information permitted under applicable laws to be omitted from this Prospectus that has been omitted will be contained in one or more Prospectus Supplements that will be delivered to purchasers together with this Prospectus, except in cases where an exemption from such delivery is available. Each Prospectus Supplement will be incorporated by reference into this Prospectus for the purposes of securities legislation as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement and only for the purposes of the distribution of the Securities to which the Prospectus Supplement pertains. Prospective investors should read this Prospectus and any applicable Prospectus Supplement carefully before investing in any Securities issued pursuant to this Prospectus.

The Company and the Selling Securityholder(s) may offer and sell Securities to, or through, underwriters, dealers or agents and may also offer and sell certain Securities directly to other purchasers or through agents pursuant to exemptions under applicable securities laws. See "Plan of Distribution". The Prospectus Supplement relating to each issue of Securities offered pursuant to this Prospectus will set forth the names of any underwriters, dealers or agents involved in the offering and sale of such Securities and will set forth the terms of the offering of such Securities, the method of distribution of such Securities including, to the extent applicable, the proceeds to the Company or the Selling Securityholder(s), if any, and any fees, discounts or any other compensation payable to underwriters, dealers or agents and any other material terms of the plan of distribution.

**No underwriter has been involved in the preparation of this Prospectus or performed any review of the contents of this Prospectus.** 

The Securities may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices or at non-fixed prices including sales in transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in National Instrument 44-102 - ***Shelf Distributions***. If offered on a non-fixed price basis, the Securities may be offered at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices determined by reference to the prevailing price of a specified Security in a specified market or at prices to be negotiated with purchasers, in which case the compensation payable to an underwriter, dealer or agent in connection with any such sale will be decreased by the amount, if any, by which the aggregate price paid for Securities by the purchasers is less than the gross proceeds paid by the underwriter, dealer or agent to the Company. The price at which the Securities will be offered and sold may vary from purchaser to purchaser and during the period of distribution.

**In connection with any offering of Securities, except as otherwise set out in a Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities, the underwriters, dealers or agents may over-allot or effect transactions which stabilize or maintain the market price of the Securities offered at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. Such transactions may be commenced, interrupted or discontinued at any time. However, no underwriter of an "at-the-market distribution", as defined in National Instrument 44-102 – *Shelf Distributions* ("NI 44-102"), and no person or company acting jointly or in concert with such an underwriter, may, in connection with such a distribution, enter into any transaction that is intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the Securities or Securities of the same class as the Securities distributed under this Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement, including selling an aggregate number or principal amount of Securities that would result in an underwriter creating an over-allocation position in the Securities. A purchaser who acquires Securities forming part of the underwriters', dealers' or agents' over-allotment position acquires those Securities under this Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement relating to the particular offering of Securities, regardless of whether the over-allotment position is ultimately filled through the exercise of the over-allotment option or secondary market purchases. See "*Plan of Distribution*".** 

The outstanding Common Shares are listed and posted for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "**TSX**") under the symbol "FR" and are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the "**NYSE**") under the symbol "AG". On May 17, 2021 the last trading day prior to the date of this Prospectus, the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX was C$20.96 and on the NYSE was US$17.38.

Further information regarding the business of the Company, its operations and its mineral properties can be found in the Annual Information Form and the documents incorporated by reference into this Prospectus. See "*Documents Incorporated by Reference*".

*Recent Developments* 

On April 30, 2021, the Company completed the previously announced acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Jerritt Canyon Canada Ltd. ("**JC Canada**") pursuant to a share purchase agreement dated March 11, 2021 between the Company and Sprott Mining Inc. (the "**Vendor**"), a company controlled by Eric Sprott (the "**Jerritt Canyon Acquisition**"). The Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of JC Canada in exchange for the issuance of 26,719,727 Common Shares (representing $470 million in consideration at a deemed price per share of $17.59) and 5,000,000 common share purchase warrants, each exercisable for one Common Share at a price of $20 per share for a period of three years, subject to a post-closing cash adjustment in certain circumstances as described below (collectively, the "**Purchase Price**"). Further, the Company completed a private placement with the Vendor concurrent with closing of the Jerritt Canyon Acquisition, consisting of the issuance of 1,705,514 Common Shares issued to the Vendor at a price of $17.59 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $30 million (the "**Concurrent Placement**").

Upon the closing of the Jerritt Canyon Acquisition, the Company deposited into escrow at closing, the Canadian dollar equivalent of $30 million and the proceeds of the Concurrent Placement (together, the "**Escrowed Funds**"), for an aggregate of $60 million, representing the estimated tax due by JC Canada as a result of a reorganization that was completed prior to the closing. The parties have agreed that the amount of such tax is approximately $46.277 million, which amount will be paid from the Escrowed Funds and the Purchase Price will be increased by the difference between such amount and $60 million. In addition, the Purchase Price will be adjusted by the amount, if any, by which the closing working capital of JC Canada is greater or less than zero. Any resulting net increase in the Purchase Price shall be paid to the Vendor from the Escrowed Funds and any resulting net decrease in the Purchase Price shall be paid by the Vendor to the Company in cash.

As a result of the Jerritt Canyon Acquisition, the Company now indirectly owns and operates Jerritt Canyon, in Elko County, Nevada. See "*The Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine*" below for further information regarding Jerritt Canyon.

In April 2021, the Company was advised that proceedings involving the Ejido Guamuchil in the Superior Court of the Durango State, Mexico were resolved in favour of the Company. Certain properties included in the San Dimas Mine and for which the Company holds legal title were subject to legal proceedings commenced by the Ejido Guamuchil asserting title to the property. In 2015, the Company obtained a federal injunction (known as an amparo) against the Ejido Guamuchil. This proceeding (the "Guamuchil Suit") was then reinstated resulting in the Company's subsidiaries gaining standing rights as an affected third party permitted to submit evidence of the Company's legal title. In February 2017, the Company received a favourable decision which was confirmed on appeal. That decision was further appealed by the Ejido Guamuchil and the appeal was dismissed in April 2021 and the Company's full ownership of the land has been confirmed. Additional details regarding the Guamcuhil Suit can be found in the Annual Information Form incorporated by reference into this Prospectus. See "*Documents Incorporated by Reference*".

On April 1, 2021, the Company renewed its senior secured revolving credit facility with the Bank of Nova Scotia and Bank of Montreal by extending the maturity date from May 10, 2021 to November 30, 2022 and reducing the credit limit from $75.0 million to $50.0 million.

**THE JERRITT CANYON GOLD MINE** 

The technical information set out below in respect of Jerritt Canyon is summarized from the technical report titled "Technical Report on the Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine, Elko County, Nevada, USA" with an effective date of December 31, 2020 (the "**Jerritt Canyon Technical Report**") and prepared by SLR Consulting (Canada) Ltd. in accordance with NI 43-101. Reference should be made to the full text of the Jerritt Canyon Technical Report which is available for review on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. For certainty, the Jerritt Canyon Technical Report is not incorporated by reference herein.

*Property Description and Location* 

Jerritt Canyon is owned by Jerritt Canyon Gold LLC ("**JCG**"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Jerritt Canyon consists of the permitted and operating Jerritt Canyon processing plant and two producing gold mines – SSX-Steer Complex ("**SSX**") and Smith.

Jerritt Canyon is located in Elko County, northeastern Nevada. The mill site, shops, and administration and security buildings are located approximately 45 miles north of the town of Elko. The Jerritt Canyon property forms an irregular area that extends approximately 21 miles north-south and 17 miles east-west at its widest and is approximately 119 square miles. The Jerritt Canyon property is bounded by 116° 10' west and 115° 78" west longitude and 41° 23' north and 41° 46' north latitude. The Jerritt Canyon property boundaries have been surveyed and are located in the field with wooden stakes.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
Jerritt Canyon operations are located on a combination of public and private lands, with the deposits and mining related surface facilities being located primarily on mining claims in United States Forest Service land within the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest. The process facilities, offices, shops, and tailings dams are located on private land owned by JCG. Additional claims in the southern part of the land package are mostly located on private land with some located on land administered by the United States Bureau of Land Management.

Land tenure on the Jerritt Canyon property includes patented claims, unpatented claims, and fee land. The Jerritt Canyon property covers a large area that extends approximately 21 miles north-south and 17 miles east-west at its widest and is approximately 119 square miles.

Certain of the Jerritt Canyon claims and fee lands are subject to a Net Smelter Return ("**NSR**") royalty which varies from 1.5% to 6% depending upon the lease agreements with various property owners. The fee land, which was originally purchased to secure access from State Route 225, is subject to a 33% NSR. There are currently three Nevada lease file agreements that cover land that has mine production. As a result, the lease holders of the producing land are entitled to receive production royalty payments that range from 2.5% to 10%. Other land held by lease holders may be subject to annual or semi-annual land payments that include advance royalties, land use payments, rentals, loss of grazing, and the use of land for a communications tower. The advance royalties are the minimum amounts the lease holders are entitled to annually. On producing land, these advance royalties may be recovered by JCG if certain production royalty thresholds are met or surpassed during the production year. Some of the land payments may be adjusted annually based on consumer/producer price indexes or annual increases. There is also a Per Ton Royalty Interest on the Jerritt Canyon processing facilities and an additional 0.5% net smelter returns royalty on the entire Jerritt Canyon property held by Ely Gold Royalties Inc.

*History* 

The Jerritt Canyon deposit was discovered by Food Machinery Corporation in 1972. In 1976, Meridian Gold LLC and Freeport Minerals Company formed a joint venture to explore and develop the gold deposits in the Jerritt Canyon area and, in 1980, mining commenced with production from the North Generator and Marlboro Canyon open pit mines. The first gold production from Jerritt Canyon occurred in July 1981.

Open pit mining was conducted from early 1981 until late 1999, with the mining carried out in the areas of Marlboro Canyon, Alchem, Lower North Generator Hill, Upper North Generator Hill, West Generator, Burns Basin, Mill Creek, Pattani Springs, California Mountains, Dash, Winters Creek, Steer Canyon, and Saval Canyon. The annual production from these areas ranged from approximately 40,000 ounces to 1.4 million ounces.

Underground operations started in 1997 at SSX, and continued until 2008 with production from the Steer, Murray, MCE, Smith, West Generator, and Saval deposits. In 2009, the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection approved plans for the recommencement of Jerritt Canyon production. Also in 2009, a new mine plan was prepared. Underground mining from the Smith deposit recommenced in late January 2010 and underground mining at SSX recommenced in early October 2010.

From the commencement of mining in 1980 to the end of 2020, approximately 9.7 million ounces of gold ("**Moz Au**") were produced from approximately 49 million tons ("**Mst**") of ore mined at an average grade of 0.199 ounce per short ton of gold ("**oz/st Au**"). Open pit mining at Jerritt Canyon produced a total of approximately 5.2 Moz Au from approximately 29.8 Mst of ore at an average grade of 0.175 oz/st Au. The underground mines produced a total of approximately 4.5 Moz Au from approximately 19.2 Mst of ore at an average grade of 0.237 oz/st Au. Since 2010, the majority of production has come from the SSX and Smith deposits.

From June 2015 to December 2020, JCG mined approximately 5.2 Mst at an average grade of 0.155 oz/st Au containing a total of approximately 0.81 Moz Au.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
Total mill production for Jerritt Canyon from the start of operations in 1980 to the end of 2020 is approximately 9.1 Moz Au from 57.5 Mst of ore at an average head grade of 0.179 oz/st Au and average recovery of 88.3%. In addition to mine production, the Jerritt Canyon mill processed ore from the Barrick Cortez mine during the period 2000 to 2002 and stockpiles from the Newmont Corporation's Carlin operations during the period from 2006 to 2010. Details of this throughput are not available and detailed reconciliation of mine and mill production during these periods is not possible. The difference between mine production and mill throughput during JCG ownership through to 2017 is also attributable to the processing of stockpiles present at the time of acquisition.

*Geological Setting and Mineralization* 

The Jerritt Canyon district is located in the Great Basin, north and northeast of the Carlin Trend of gold deposits. Carlin type gold mineralization at Jerritt Canyon is hosted by silty carbonate or carbonaceous siliciclastic rocks originally deposited as shelf sedimentary rocks during the Paleozoic. The Paleozoic host rocks have been imbricated, faulted, and folded through several orogenic events through the Paleozoic and Mesozoic. An early phase of intrusive igneous activity is represented by west-northwest mafic igneous dikes of Paleozoic age. Carlin type gold deposits were emplaced in the Middle to Late Eocene during an initial phase of extensional tectonics at which time high potassium calc-alkaline magmatic rocks were emplaced. Mafic and intermediate igneous dikes were emplaced during this phase of igneous activity and trend north-northeast.

The occurrence and distribution of gold mineralization at Jerritt Canyon is controlled both by lithology and structure. Gold mineralization at Jerritt Canyon is hosted by Hanson Creek Formation units I to III and the lower part of the Roberts Mountains Formation. The Saval discontinuity, being the contact between the Hanson Creek and the Roberts Mountain Formations, is interpreted as a primary control on gold mineralization at Jerritt Canyon. Gold mineralization is hosted by, or spatially associated, with high angle west-northwest- and north-northeast-trending structures. Much of the more continuous gold mineralization occurs within the favourable stratigraphic intervals along the limbs or hinge zones of large anticlinal folds, and at the intersection of the two sets of high angle structures. The mineralized zones form along well defined structural and mineralization trends as stratigraphically controlled tabular pods that are locally stacked upon one another resulting from the presence of more than one favourable stratigraphic unit and/or local thrust and/or high angled fault intersection controls. The deposits are Carlin type, sediment-hosted gold mineralization within carbonaceous sediments. Gold occurs as very fine-grained micron-sized particles as grain boundaries or inclusions in pyrite, and as free grains in carbonaceous-rich and fine-grained, calcareous, clastic sedimentary rocks.

Alteration in the Jerritt Canyon district includes silicification, dolomitization, remobilization, and reconstitution of organic carbon, decalcification, argillization, and pyritization (typically containing elevated arsenic). The rocks also exhibit hypogene and supergene oxidation and bleaching. The most important alteration types relative to gold deposition are silicification, remobilization, and reconstitution of organic carbon, pyritization, and decalcification.

*Deposit Types* 

Jerritt Canyon is a Carlin-type gold deposit, hydrothermal in origin and usually structurally controlled. Current models attribute the genesis of Carlin-type gold deposits to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Epizonal plutons that contributed heat and potentially fluids and metals.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Meteoric fluid circulation resulting from crustal extension and widespread magmatism.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Metamorphic fluids, possibly with a magmatic contribution, from deep or mid-crustal levels.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Upper-crustal orogenic-gold processes within an extensional tectonic regime.

Jerritt Canyon is hosted by silty carbonate or carbonaceous siliciclastic rocks originally deposited as shelf sedimentary rocks during the Paleozoic age. The Paleozoic host rocks have been imbricated, faulted, and folded through several orogenic events in the Paleozoic and Mesozoic. An early phase of intrusive igneous activity is represented by west-northwest mafic igneous dikes of Paleozoic age.

Carlin-type gold deposits were emplaced during the Middle to Late Eocene during an initial phase of extensional tectonics at which time high potassium calc-alkaline magmatic rocks were emplaced. Mafic and intermediate igneous dikes were emplaced during this phase of igneous activity and demarcate north-northeast-oriented structures. The primary controls on the occurrence, distribution, and form of the deposits are:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Favourable host rocks (formation units)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The reactivation of Paleozoic and Mesozoic structures

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Eocene syn-mineralization normal faults

In general terms, the intersection of structures with favourable host rocks is the primary control and the form of mineralization ranges from apparently stratabound to fault hosted where the faults can be either highly discordant to bedding or bedding-parallel. Deposits at Jerritt Canyon are mostly stratabound or fault hosted. Gold occurs as very fine, micron sized, particles in pyrite and arsenian pyrite. Other sulfides are orpiment, realgar, and stibnite. Alteration includes carbonatization, decalcification, and silicification (jasperoid).

*Exploration* 

Exploration completed by JCG has included desktop compilation and interpretation of historical datasets, target identification, and reverse circulation ("**RC**") and core drilling. Drilling completed at Jerritt Canyon by JCG includes two phases of surface drilling and on-going underground drilling. In the fall of 2015, JCG initiated a comprehensive compilation of all historical geophysical data for Jerritt Canyon as well as a compilation of past surface geochemistry including soil, stream sediment, and bedrock sampling, completed to 2015. Interpretation of these compilations incorporated geology, gold distribution, and past surface exploration drilling and resulted in the identification of exploration targets and development of a surface RC exploration program, which was executed in the fall of 2016.

In early 2017, JCG commissioned further detailed evaluation of the historical gravity data, inversion and examination of DIGHEM EM and magnetic data, inversion and examination of the ground magnetic data, and examination of the Titan survey results.

In the spring of 2017, JCG commissioned Goldspot Discoveries Inc. ("**Goldspot**") to complete a machine learning (AI) compilation, interpretation, and targeting study. The 2017 study incorporated several datasets from Jerritt Canyon including drilling (lithology and assay), surface geology, topography, soil geochemistry, gravity, DIGHEM EM, magnetic, and radiometric data. Goldspot incorporated hyperspectral data into the compilation and interpretation. Based on the 2017 study, Goldspot generated target areas, planned drill holes, and completed a 3D geological model incorporating structural and lithological information in Leapfrog software.

*Drilling* 

Starting January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2020, JCG has drilled a total of 18,533 holes between RC and core from underground drilling sites, comprising of 2,800,695 ft of drilling.

*Mineral Resources Estimate* 

Since the completion of the "RPA, 2018, Technical Report on the Jerritt Canyon Mine, Elko County, Nevada, USA (September 28, 2018)", JCG has conducted in-fill drilling programs from the surface and

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
underground. These drilling programs have resulted in a total of 13,345 additional drill holes for a total length of approximately 2,930,162 ft. This new drill hole information has resulted in the creation of additional mineralized wireframe models for the Jerritt Canyon underground mines.

Wireframe and block modelling for the Jerritt Canyon deposits were completed by JCG geologists and provided to the Technical Report Authors (as defined herein) for review. A total of five deposits are the focus of this Mineral Resource estimate: Saval 4, Smith, SSX, USB, and WGen. Two deposits, Smith and SSX, consist of multiple domains. A total of 17 mineralized wireframe models were built for SSX Zone 1, SSX Zone 2-3, SSX Zone 4, SSX Zone 5, SSX Zone 6, SSX Zone 7, SSX Zone 9, Smith Zone 1, Smith Zone 2-3, Smith Zone 4, Smith Zone 5, Smith Zone 7, Smith Zone 8, Smith Zone 9, Saval 4, USB, and WGen. All wireframes are based on approximately a 0.10 oz/st Au threshold.

Visual examination of the assay tables related to the drill hole data revealed the presence of a large number of unsampled intervals within and abutting the boundaries of the interpreted mineralization wireframes. A value of 0.001 oz/st Au was entered for all such intervals with null values prior to the creation of composited assays. The resulting sample information for the drill holes was composited into nominal equal lengths of five feet within the mineralized boundaries using the run-length compositing algorithm in the Leapfrog Edge modelling software package.

JCG capped a number of high-grade assays contained within the mineralized wireframe models. The composites for diamond drill holes and RC drill holes were capped to 1.8 oz/st Au during compositing. In total, 656 samples were capped at 1.8 oz/st Au, all of which are contained within the Smith and SSX deposits.

A total of 225,511 composited samples were used for grade interpolation between the five different Jerritt Canyon deposits. Composites with lengths below three feet were ignored, which constituted approximately 10% of total composites.

A total of 11 different block models were created from the 17 wireframe models. Parent block sizes for all models are 10 ft x 10 ft x 10 ft with sub-block sizes at 2.5 ft x 2.5 ft x 2.5 ft. One interpolation pass was carried out to estimate the grades into the separate block models. Gold grades were estimated into the blocks using Ordinary Kriging (OK) interpolation algorithm with Leapfrog Edge. Nearest Neighbor ("**NN**") and Inverse Distance Cubed ("**ID3**") estimations were used for model validation.

A 100 ft dilution zone was created around the mineralized wireframe models for all the block models. A single pass estimation strategy using ID3 was applied when estimating the grades for the dilution domain in the individual block models.

Block model validation exercises included a comparison of the average grade of the composite samples to the block average grades, visual comparisons of the estimated block grades to the composited gold grades, swath plots, and reconciliation to production statistics.

Cut-off grades were developed for reporting of underground Mineral Resources using a gold price of US$1,700/oz Au. The resource cut-off grade was determined to be 0.11 oz/st Au. The current operating cut-off grade is approximately 0.12 oz/st Au.

A summary of the Jerritt Canyon Mineral Resources by deposit is presented in Table 1 with an effective date of December 31, 2020. A cut-off grade of 0.11 oz/st Au was applied to the underground Mineral Resources. The Mineral Resources have been depleted for production to December 31, 2020 and are exclusive of Mineral Reserves.

Summaries of the Mineral Resources in Imperial and Metric units are provided in Table 1 and Table 2, respectively.

The classification of Measured, Indicated, and Inferred Resources conforms to the 2014 "CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves" using industry best practices as outlined in the 2019 "CIM Estimation of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Best Practice Guidelines".

The Technical Report Authors are not aware of any environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-economic, marketing, political, or other relevant factors that could materially affect the Mineral Resource estimate aside from those identified under the heading "*Environmental, Permitting and Social Considerations*" which are being mitigated by further work by JCG.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
Risk factors that could materially impact the Mineral Resource estimate include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Metal price and exchange rate assumptions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Changes in the interpretations of mineralization geometry and continuity of mineralized zones.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Changes to geotechnical, mining, and metallurgical recovery assumptions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Changes to the assumptions related to the continued ability to access the site, retain mineral and surface
right titles, maintain environment and other regulatory permits, and maintain the license to operate.

The definition of categories in the Mineral Resource estimate is based primarily on a distance function, however, visual and geological interpretation has also been used. The classification methodology is based on the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Measured: Based on drill hole spacing up to approximately 30 ft.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Indicated: Based on drill hole spacing up to approximately 75 ft.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Inferred: Based on drill hole spacing up to approximately 100 ft.

The Technical Report Authors applied a breakeven cut-off grade of 0.11 oz/st Au to estimate the Mineral Resource. The economic parameters used to calculate the cut-off grade are provided below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Gold price: US$1,700/oz Au

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Mining cost: US$102/st

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Milling cost: US$45/st

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Metal recovery: 86%

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• General and administrative costs: US$18/st

JCG used the stope optimizer module to produce Mineral Resource stopes from material that is exclusive of the Mineral Reserve stopes used for SSX and Smith. USB, WGen, and Saval 4 do not have material classified as Mineral Reserves and therefore do not have any Mineral Reserve stopes removed from their corresponding Mineral Resources.

The criteria used to produce these stopes was a minimum mining size (15 ft x 15 ft), continuity criteria, and a cut-off value of 0.08 oz/st Au. The dimensions of the minimum mining size were based on the equipment employed by JCG. Once results were available, the final cut-off grade of 0.11 oz/st Au was applied and stopes that were below the cut-off were removed.

*Mineral Reserve Estimate* 

The Technical Report Authors generated the Jerritt Canyon underground Mineral Reserves by filtering Deswik stope optimizer (DSO) shapes, as provided by JCG, and applying mine designs to the March 31, 2020 as-built survey solids. The design methodology uses both cut-off grade estimation and economic analysis to design and validate the Mineral Reserves.

Stopes and development tasks were classified in the Mineral Resource classification based on the majority of material in the task. For the majority of the orebody the material for each task was one classification type. In areas of mixed classification the Measured or Indicated material accounted for 70% or more of the stope material.

The Technical Report Authors selected stopes to be used in Mineral Reserves first by filtering or identifying stopes based primarily on their proximity to existing historical mine workings, open pits, and infrastructure, and

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
secondly, by identifying large and continuous regions of stopes, until approximately five years of Mineral Reserves were accumulated for each mine. Stopes within 15 ft of historical mine workings were identified and flagged due to a lack of knowledge or confidence in the quality or type of backfill used in those workings. At SSX, a risk factor was applied to these stopes. Measured stopes with a risk factor were classified as Probable, and measured stopes with no risk classified as Proven. At Smith, any material within 15 ft of existing workings was excluded from the Mineral Reserves and material classes were based on block model output.

The natural water table at both SSX and Smith is situated at 6,600 feet above sea level ("**FASL**") or 2,012 m above sea level (masl). Mineral Reserves below the natural water table will require dewatering to rehabilitate old workings or to drive new headings. Scheduling has taken dewatering into account, and no additional costs have been applied to cut-off grades below the natural water table.

Table 3 presents a summary of the Jerritt Canyon Mineral Reserves above and below the natural water table at 6,600 FASL.

*Mining Methods* 

The Jerritt Canyon property has been in operation since 1980. Between 1981 and 1999, mining was by open pit. Underground operations began in 1993 with the opening of the Murray Mine and/or West Gen Underground. Underground operations started in 1997 at SSX, and continued until 2008 with production from the Steer, Murray, MCE, Smith, West Generator, and Saval deposits. In 2009, a new mine plan was prepared. Underground mining from the Smith deposit recommenced in late January 2010 and underground mining at SSX recommenced in early October 2010.

Mining is by the cut and fill mining method at the Smith and SSX. A significant portion of the Mineral Resources at Smith and SSX are located below the water table and will require dewatering. Dewatering infrastructure, including pumps, dewatering wells and a water treatment facility, is partially completed.

*Recovery Methods* 

The processing facilities at Jerritt Canyon are designed to operate at a rate of 4,500 tones per day ("**stpd**") with an operating availability of 90% and are permitted to operate at 6,000 stpd. The facilities include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Primary crushing

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Ore drying

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Secondary crushing

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Tertiary crushing

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Dry grinding

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Roasting

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Thickening

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• CIL

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Carbon stripping

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Carbon reactivation

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Electrowinning

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Electrowinning sludge refining

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Oxygen plant

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Cooling pond

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Water evaporation pond

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Tailing Impoundment

*Project Infrastructure* 

Jerritt Canyon has been in commercial production for approximately 39 years and the infrastructure to support a mining and milling operation is established. Surface rights to sustain mining operations on the Jerritt Canyon property are secured through current ownership and claim holder rights. The current infrastructure includes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Access roads

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Power supply and distribution

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Office buildings

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Warehouse facilities

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Maintenance shops

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Laboratory facilities

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Communication networks

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Onsite security

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• TSFs

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Water management systems

The main access road is approximately seven miles long and is a 22 ft wide paved road between Nevada highway 225 and the mill site. A 100 ft wide haul road provides access between the major mines and the mill site. This road network is approximately 17 miles long.

Power to Jerritt Canyon is purchased from Nevada Energy through a 125 kV, three-phase transmission line. Monthly power consumption is approximately 8.0 MWh.

Water available on site is sufficient to support all mining and milling operations. All water used at Jerritt Canyon is from permitted and certificated water rights held by JCG and regulated by the Nevada Division of Water Resources.

For the management and disposal of tailings and reduction of surplus process solutions, Jerritt Canyon operates one active tailings storage facility ("**TSF 2**") and two main process water storage facilities which include the water storage reservoir ("**WSR**") and the evaporation pond. Jerritt Canyon also operates a process water treatment plant ("**WTP**") to remove process water contaminates in an effort to reduce process water inventories and maintain an overall negative site water balance. JCG is currently in the process of closing and reclaiming TSF-1, which was the first tailing storage facility constructed and continuously operated at Jerritt Canyon between 1980 and 2014.

TSF 2 was originally commissioned in 2013 as TSF 2 Phase 1 to store approximately 3.7 Mst of tailings. In 2018, TSF 2 was expanded as to store an additional 1.5 Mst of tailings. Tailings slurry is delivered to the TSF 2 in a slurry consisting of 40 tons solids to 60 tons water by weight. At the date of the Technical Report, TSF 2 Phase 3 was under construction and has been designed to contain an additional 1.1 Mst of tailings. Because Phase 2 has been filled beyond planned operating capacity, TSF 2 Phase 3's operational life has shortened and it is expected to be filled to capacity by the end of November 2021.

TSF 2 Phase 4 has been designed and awaits approval from the State of Nevada regulatory agencies. TSF 2 Phase 4 will allow storage of an additional 1.7 Mst of tailings. Even with the shortened operational life of Phase 3, TSF 2 Phase 4 must be constructed in 2021. Assuming a planned production rate of 2,350 stpd, TSF 2 Phase 4 will be filled to capacity by December 2023; however, this date will vary depending on actual mine plan and production rates determined by operations.

After TSF 2 Phase 4 is filled to capacity, JCG plans to dispose of future tailings in the previously designed and approved TSF 3, which is the existing WSR that will be converted to accept tailings disposal. The WSR's conversion to TSF 3 will allow disposal of approximately of 2.4 Mst of tailings. At an assumed average production rate of 2,350 stpd, TSF 3 would provide approximately 2.6 years tailings storage. If the average deposition rate is increased for the 2021 mine plan and following, the timeline for creation of additional tailings management area will be shortened proportionally.

The process WTP was constructed to eliminate the surplus process water inventory located in the Jerritt Canyon WSR and evaporation pond and to create additional storage capacity for future tailings storage. The process WTP's treated permeate is disposed of in injection wells while its brine concentrate is disposed of in the evaporation pond.

*Environmental, Permitting and Social Considerations* 

Jerritt Canyon has been in operation since 1981. Prior to and during operation, numerous environmental studies and evaluations have been conducted to support permit applications and operations. An Environmental Impact Statement was completed and the Record of Decision was issued in 1980. Operating permits are in place and current.

The historic operation of Jerritt Canyon resulted in a number of environmental concerns, including seepage from the tailings storage facilities, limited tailings storage facility capacity, lack of water treatment facilities, etc. JCG inherited this legacy and has been working diligently to mitigate the concerns since it took over the operation.

Jerritt Canyon is located in Elko County, Nevada. Numerous other mining operations are located in the same area and JCG has a good relationship with the local community.

Approved closure and reclamation plans are in place for Jerritt Canyon. The total reclamation costs, as updated in 2019, estimated from the 2019 Annual Work Plan are approximately US$86.6 million.

The Technical Report Authors have identified seven environmental issues that have the potential to impact JCG's ability to extract Mineral Reserves or the cost of doing so which are being addressed by JCG. Therefore, in the Technical Report Authors' opinion, the potential negative impact on JCG's ability to extract the Mineral Reserves is minimal and it is likely that some further spending on mitigation will be required. The issues identified are listed below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Numerous requests for modifications to permits are pending.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. Multiple violations of the Class I Air Quality Operating Permit and the Mercury Operating Permit to
Construction in the past two years. Mitigation efforts are in progress but have not yet demonstrated the ability to achieve permit levels.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. Multiple exceedances of the Reference Value water quality standards at injection wells and monitoring wells
related to the UIC permit including aluminum, antimony, arsenic, iron, magnesium, manganese, nitrite, nickel, TDS, thallium, and sulfate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. Surface water: High concentrations and increasing concentrations of multiple constituents of concern
including TDS and sulfate in surface water associated with mining activities and in particular seepage from the RDAs. These will be addressed though either active or passive remediation systems.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. Groundwater: High concentrations and increasing concentrations of multiple constituents of concern including
TDS, sulfate, arsenic, calcium, chloride, and selenium at multiple groundwater monitoring locations associated with mining activities, and in particular seepage from TSF 1.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. Water management constraints including water treatment facilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. Violation of Secondary Drinking Water Standards for iron at a water supply well.

*Capital and Operating Costs* 

Sustaining capital costs were estimated by JCG, with the majority of the costs consisting of mine development and heavy mobile equipment needed to replace the aging fleet. Sustaining capital costs for Jerritt Canyon are summarized in Table 6.

The Technical Report Authors note that reclamation costs have not been estimated for the end of mine life, though a progressive annual reclamation cost has been applied based on a rate of $1.50/ton milled.

Operating costs estimated by JCG, averaging US$121.5 million per year or $164.68/t ore were estimated for mining, processing, and general and administrative expenses. Operating cost inputs such as labour rates, consumables, and supplies were based on JCG operating data. A summary of Jerritt Canyon operating costs is provided in Table 7.

**USE OF PROCEEDS** 

The use of proceeds from the sale of Securities will be described in the applicable Prospectus Supplement relating to a specific offering and sale of Securities. Unless otherwise specified in a Prospectus Supplement, among other potential uses, the Company may use the net proceeds for general working capital purposes, for expansion of existing operations, and for one or more other general corporate purposes including to complete corporate acquisitions, to, directly or indirectly, finance future growth opportunities and to repay existing or future indebtedness. More detailed information regarding the use of proceeds and the amount of net proceeds to be used for any such purposes will be set forth in any applicable Prospectus Supplement. The Company may invest net proceeds which it does not immediately use. Such investments may include short-term marketable investment grade securities. Management of the Company will retain broad discretion in allocating the net proceeds of any offering of Securities under this Prospectus and the Company's actual use of the net proceeds will vary depending on the availability and suitability of investment opportunities and its operating and capital needs from time to time. All expenses relating to an offering of Securities and any compensation paid to underwriting dealers or agents as the case may be, will be paid out of the proceeds from the sale of Securities, unless otherwise stated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

The Company may, from time to time, issue securities (including Securities) other than pursuant to this Prospectus.

**SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS** 

This Prospectus may also, from time to time, relate to the offering of the Securities by way of a secondary offering (each, a "**Secondary Offering**") by one or more Selling Securityholders.

The terms under which Securities may be offered by Selling Securityholders will be described in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. The Prospectus Supplement for or including any offering of Securities by Selling Securityholders will include, without limitation, where applicable: (i) the names of the Selling Securityholders; (ii) the number and type of Securities owned, controlled or directed by each Selling Securityholder; (iii) the number of Securities being distributed for the accounts of each Selling Securityholder; (iv) the number of Securities to be owned, controlled or directed by each Selling Securityholder after the

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
distribution and the percentage that number or amount represents out of the total number of outstanding Securities; (v) whether the Securities are owned by the Selling Securityholders, both of record and beneficially, of record only or beneficially only; (vi) if a Selling Securityholder purchased any of the Securities held by him, her or it in the 12 months preceding the date of the Prospectus Supplement, the date or dates the Selling Securityholder acquired the Securities; and (vii) if a Selling Securityholder acquired the Securities held by him, her or it in the 12 months preceding the date of the Prospectus Supplement, the cost thereof to the Selling Securityholder in the aggregate and on a per security basis.

**PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION** 

The Company may, from time to time, during the 25-month period that this Prospectus remains valid, offer for sale and issue Securities. The Company may issue and sell Securities with an aggregate total offering price of up to US$300,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in Canadian dollars or any other currencies).

The Company may sell the Securities, separately or together, to or through underwriters, dealers or agents, and also may sell Securities to one or more other purchasers directly or through agents. Each Prospectus Supplement will set forth the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any underwriters, dealers or agents and any fees or compensation payable to them in connection with the offering and sale of a particular series or issue of Securities, the public offering price or prices of the Securities and the proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Securities. Any initial offering price and discounts, concessions or commissions allowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

In addition, the Securities may be offered and issued in consideration for the acquisition of other businesses, assets or securities by the Company or one of its subsidiaries. The consideration for any such acquisition may consist of Securities separately, a combination of Securities or any combination of, among other things, Securities, cash and assumption of liabilities.

The Securities may be sold, from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices which may be changed or at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices, including in transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in NI 44-102, including sales made directly on the TSX, NYSE or other existing trading markets for the Securities. The prices at which the Securities may be offered may vary as between purchasers and during the period of distribution of the applicable Securities. If, in connection with the offering of Securities at a fixed price or prices, the underwriters, dealers or agents have made a bona fide effort to sell all of the Securities at the initial offering price fixed in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the public offering price may be decreased and thereafter further changed, from time to time, to an amount not greater than the initial offering price fixed in such Prospectus Supplement, in which case the compensation realized by the underwriters, dealers or agents will be decreased by the amount that the aggregate price paid by purchasers for the Securities is less than the gross proceeds paid by the underwriters, dealers or agents to the Company.

Underwriters, dealers and agents who participate in the distribution of the Securities may be entitled under agreements to be entered into with the Company to indemnification by the Company against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the U.S. Securities Act and Canadian securities legislation, or to contribution with respect to payments which such underwriters, dealers or agents may be required to make in respect thereof. Such underwriters, dealers and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for, the Company in the ordinary course of business.

In connection with any offering of Securities, other than an "at-the-market distribution", the underwriters, dealers or agents may over-allot or effect transactions which stabilize or maintain the market price of the Securities offered at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. Such transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
No underwriter of an "at-the-market distribution" and no person or company acting jointly or in concert with such an underwriter, may, in connection with such a distribution, enter into any transaction that is intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the Securities or Securities of the same class as the Securities distributed under this Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement, including selling an aggregate number or principal amount of Securities that would result in an underwriter creating an over-allocation position in the Securities.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, Subscription Receipts, Units and Warrants will not be listed on any securities exchange. Consequently, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, there is no market through which the Subscription Receipts, Units and Warrants may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell any such Securities purchased under this Prospectus. This may affect the pricing of the Subscription Receipts, Units and Warrants in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of such Securities and the extent of issuer regulation. No assurances can be given that a market for trading in Securities of any series or issue will develop or as to the liquidity of any such market, whether or not the Securities are listed on a securities exchange. See "Risk Factors".

**DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES** 

The following is a brief summary of certain general terms and provisions of the Securities as at the date of this Prospectus. The summary does not purport to be complete and is indicative only. The specific terms of any Securities to be offered under this Prospectus, and the extent to which the general terms described in this Prospectus apply to such Securities, will be set forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. Moreover, a Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities may include terms pertaining to the Securities being offered thereunder that are not within the terms and parameters described in this Prospectus.

**Common Shares** 

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited amount of Common Shares, without par value, of which, as of May 17, 2021, 251,506,493 are issued and outstanding.

The Subscription Receipts may be offered separately or together with other Securities, as the case may be. Subscription Receipts will be issued pursuant to one or more subscription receipt agreements (each, a "**Subscription Receipt Agreement**"), each to be entered into between the Company and an escrow agent (the "**Escrow Agent**") that will be named in the relevant Prospectus Supplement. Each Escrow Agent will be a financial institution organized under the laws of Canada or a province thereof and authorized to carry on business as a trustee. The subscription proceeds from an offering of Subscription Receipts will be held in escrow by the Escrow Agent pending the completion of the transaction or the termination time (the time at which the escrow terminates regardless of whether the transaction or event has occurred). If underwriters, dealers or agents are used in the sale of any Subscription Receipts, one or

more of such underwriters, dealers or agents may also be a party to the Subscription Receipt Agreement governing the subscription receipts sold to or through such underwriter, dealer or agent.

The following description sets forth certain general terms and provisions of the Units that may be issued hereunder and is not intended to be complete. Units may be issued at various times comprising any combination of the other Securities described in this Prospectus.

Therefore, the holder of a Unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included Security (except in some cases where the right to transfer an included Security of a Unit may not occur without the transfer of the other included Security comprising part of such Unit). The Units may be offered separately or together with other Securities, as the case may be.

The statements made in this Prospectus relating to any warrant indenture and Warrants to be issued under this Prospectus are summaries of certain anticipated provisions thereof and do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to, the provisions of the applicable warrant indenture, if any.

The Company may amend the warrant indenture(s) and the Warrants, without the consent of the holders of the Warrants, in the manner set forth in the applicable indenture(s) or certificates, including to cure any ambiguity, to cure, correct or supplement any defective or inconsistent provision or in any other manner that will not prejudice the rights of the holders of outstanding Warrants, as a group.

**CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS** 

The applicable Prospectus Supplement may describe certain Canadian federal income tax consequences to an investor who is a non-resident of Canada or to an investor who is a resident of Canada of acquiring, owning and disposing of any of the Securities offered thereunder. The applicable Prospectus Supplement may also describe certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of any of the Securities offered thereunder by an initial investor who is subject to United States federal taxation. Investors should read the tax discussion in any Prospectus Supplement with respect to a particular offering and consult their own tax advisors with respect to their own particular circumstances.

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
**RISK FACTORS** 

Before deciding to invest in any Securities, prospective purchasers of the Securities should consider carefully the risk factors and the other information contained in and incorporated by reference into this Prospectus and any applicable Prospectus Supplement relating to a specific offering of Securities before purchasing the Securities. An investment in the Securities offered hereunder is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Information regarding the risks affecting the Company and its business is provided in the documents incorporated by reference in this Prospectus, including in the Company's most recent annual information form under the heading "Description of Business - Risk Factors". Additional risks and uncertainties not known to the Company or that management currently deems immaterial may also impair the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. See "Documents Incorporated by Reference".

**No Assurance of Active or Liquid Market** 

No assurance can be given that an active or liquid trading market for the Common Shares will be sustained. If an active or liquid market for the Common Shares fails to be sustained, the prices at which such shares trade may be adversely affected. Whether or not the Common Shares will trade at lower prices depends on many factors, including the liquidity of the Common Shares, the markets for similar securities, general economic conditions and the Company's financial condition, historic financial performance and future prospects.

There is no public market for the Warrants, Subscription Receipts or Units and, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the Company does not intend to apply for listing of such Securities on any securities exchange. If the Warrants, Subscription Receipts or Units are traded after their initial issue, they may trade at a discount from their initial offering prices depending on the market for similar securities and other factors including general economic conditions and the Company's financial condition. There can be no assurance as to the liquidity of the trading market for the Warrants, Subscription Receipts or Units or that a trading market for these securities will develop.

**Public Markets and Share Prices** 

The market price of the Common Shares and any other Securities offered hereunder that become listed and posted for trading on the TSX, NYSE or any other stock exchange could be subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in the Company's financial results or other factors. In addition, fluctuations in the stock market may adversely affect the market price of the Common Shares and any other Securities offered hereunder that become listed and posted for trading on a stock exchange regardless of the financial performance of the Company. Securities markets have also experienced significant price and volume fluctuations from time to time. In some instances, these fluctuations have been unrelated or disproportionate to the financial performance of issuers. Market fluctuations may adversely impact the market price of the Common Shares and any other Securities offered hereunder that become listed and posted for trading on a stock exchange. There can be no assurance of the price at which the Common Shares that become listed and posted for trading on a stock exchange will trade.

**Additional Issuances and Dilution** 

The Company may issue and sell additional securities of the Company from time to time. The Company cannot predict the size of future issuances of securities of the Company or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of securities will have on the market price of any securities of the Company that are issued and outstanding from time to time. Sales or issuances of substantial amounts of securities of the Company, or the perception that such sales could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices for the securities of the Company that are issued and outstanding from time to time. With any additional sale or issuance of securities of the Company, holders will suffer dilution with respect to voting power and may experience dilution in the Company's earnings per share. Moreover, this Prospectus may create a perceived risk of dilution resulting in

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
downward pressure on the price of the Company's issued and outstanding Common Shares, which could contribute to progressive declines in the prices of such securities.

**Discretion Regarding Use of Proceeds** 

Management of the Company will have broad discretion with respect to the application of net proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Securities under this Prospectus or a future Prospectus Supplement and may spend such proceeds in ways that do not improve the Company's results of operations or enhance the value of the Common Shares or its other securities issued and outstanding from time to time. Any failure by management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business or cause the price of the securities of the Company issued and outstanding from time to time to decline

Purchasers are advised that it may not be possible for investors to enforce judgments obtained in Canada against any person that resides outside of Canada, even if the person has appointed an agent for service of process.

**ENFORCEABILITY OF CERTAIN CIVIL LIABILITIES** 

The Company is governed by the laws of British Columbia and its principal place of business is outside the United States. The majority of the directors and officers of the Company and the experts named under "Interests of Experts" herein are resident outside of the United States and a substantial portion of the Company's assets and the assets of such persons are located outside of the United States. Consequently, it may be difficult for United States investors to effect service of process within the United States on the Company, its directors or officers or such experts, or to realize in the United States on judgments of courts of the United States predicated on civil liabilities under the U.S. Securities Act. Investors should not assume that Canadian courts would enforce judgments of United States courts obtained in actions against the Company or such persons predicated on the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws or the securities or "blue sky" laws of any state within the United States or would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against the Company or such persons predicated on the United States federal securities or any such state securities or "blue sky" laws. **A final judgment for a liquidated sum in favour of a private litigant granted by a United States court and predicated solely upon civil liability under United States federal securities laws would, subject to certain exceptions identified in the law of individual provinces of Canada, likely be enforceable in Canada if the**

 **United States court in which the judgment was obtained had a basis for jurisdiction in the matter that would be recognized by the domestic Canadian court for the same purposes. There is a significant risk that a given Canadian court may not have jurisdiction or may decline jurisdiction over a claim based solely upon United States federal securities law on application of the conflict of laws principles of the province in Canada in which the claim is brought.**

**The Company filed with the SEC, concurrently with the Registration Statement, an appointment of agent for service of process on Form F-X. Under the Form F-X, the Company appointed Puglisi & Associates, with an address at 850 Library Avenue, Suite 204, Newark, Delaware 19711, as its agent for service of process in the United States in connection with any investigation or administrative proceeding conducted by the SEC, and any civil suit or action brought against or involving the Company in a United States court arising out of or related to or concerning the offering of Securities under the Registration Statement.** 

**CONTRACTUAL RIGHTS OF RESCISSION** 

Original purchasers of Securities which are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable for other securities of the Company, including Subscription Receipts and Warrants if offered separately without any other Securities, will have a contractual right of rescission against the Company in respect of the conversion, exchange or exercise of such Securities. The contractual right of rescission will entitle such original purchasers to receive the amount paid upon conversion, exchange or exercise, upon surrender of the underlying securities gained thereby, in the event that this Prospectus, the relevant Prospectus Supplement or an amendment thereto contains a misrepresentation, provided that: (i) the conversion, exchange or exercise takes place within 180 days of the date of the purchase of such Securities under this Prospectus and the applicable Prospectus Supplement; and (ii) the right of rescission is exercised within 180 days of the date of the purchase of such Securities under this Prospectus and the applicable Prospectus Supplement. This contractual right of rescission will be consistent with the statutory right of rescission described under section 131 of the *Securities Act* (British Columbia), and is in addition to any other right or remedy available to original purchasers under section 131 of the *Securities Act* (British Columbia) or otherwise at law.
