("NNX") with respect to the option agreement between the parties dated March 6, 2023, as amended (the "Option Agreement"), relating to the Company's option to acquire the Hawk Ridge Project. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Option Agreement, the parties have agreed to amend the payment terms and conditions of the Option Agreement as follows:

  1. Upon entering into the Amended and Restated Option Agreement, the Company paid NNX $15,000 in cash as a non-refundable deposit and, upon receiving TSX Venture approval of the Amended and Restated Option Agreement, the Company will pay NNX $335,000 in cash and issue to the Optionor 5,000,000 common shares in the capital of the Company.

  2. The Company is now entitled to acquire a 20% undivided interest in the Hawk Ridge Project on the first anniversary of the date that is two business days following the approval of the Amended and Restated Option Agreement by the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Effective Date") by paying $350,000 and issuing 4,000,000 common shares of the Company to NNX and incurring $500,000 of exploration expenditures before the first anniversary of the Effective Date (the "First Option").
  1. If the Company exercises the First Option, it can now acquire an additional 10% (for an aggregate 30%) undivided interest in the Hawk Ridge Project by paying $350,000 and issuing 4,000,000 common shares of the Company to NNX on the second anniversary date of the Effective Date, and incurring $500,000 of exploration expenditures before the second anniversary of the Effective Date (the "Second Option").
  1. If the Company exercises the Second Option, it can now acquire an additional 20% (for an aggregate 50%) undivided interest in the Hawk Ridge Project by paying $750,000 and issuing 3,000,000 common shares of the Company to NNX on the third anniversary date of the Effective Date, and incurring $1,000,000 of exploration expenditures before the third anniversary of the Effective Date (the "Third Option").

Additionally, under the Option Agreement, if the Company did not satisfy the previous payment terms and conditions of the Second Option, the Company's option to acquire the Hawk Ridge Project would terminate and the Company was return to NNX the undivided interest in the Hawk Ridge Project that the Company would have acquired upon the exercise of the First Option for nil consideration, resulting in the Company holding no interest in the Hawk Ridge Project. Now, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Option Agreement, if the Company does not satisfy the payment terms of the Third Option, the Company's option to acquire the Hawk Ridge Project will terminate and the Company will return to NNX the undivided interests in the Hawk Ridge Project to be acquired upon the exercise of the First Option and the Second Option for nil consideration, resulting in the Company holding no interest in the Hawk Ridge Project.

The remaining terms of the Option Agreement are restated in the Amended and Restated Option Agreement.
