Holdings Inc. ("Parent"), Exploration Inc., ("Merger Sub"), and joined by AngloGold Ashanti Holdings plc for the limited purposes specified in the Merger Agreement, which was consummated on October 23, 2025, and pursuant to which Parent acquired all of the outstanding common shares of the Issuer (other than those owned by Parent and its affiliates) in exchange for cash consideration of C$1.70 per share (the "Merger").

(2) In connection with the Merger, all outstanding options to purchase common shares of the issuer as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, were deemed unconditionally vested and exercisable, and subsequently cancelled in exchange for cash payment equal to the difference between the per share consideration of C$1.70 and the per share exercise price of such option multiplied by the number of common shares issuable pursuant to such option, less applicable withholdings.

(3) As previously reported, exercise price reported above was converted from the Canadian exercise price of C$1.11 using an exchange rate of C$1.3723=US$1.00.

(4) As previously reported, the options were granted on August 13, 2024, and vest as follows:  One-third on August 13, 2025; one-third on August 13, 2026; and one-third on August 13, 2027.
