Nickel Creek Platinum Corp. (TSXV: NCP) ("Nickel Creek" or the "Company") announces an increase to its previously announced non-brokered private placement (see October 29, 2025 news release) of securities of the Company to up to $2.1 million (the "Private Placement"), consisting of the sale and issuance of up to:
i. 465,000 common shares of the Company (each, a "Common Share") at a price of $2.15 per Common Share; and
ii. 478,260 Common Shares that will qualify as "flow-through shares" within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act") (each, a "FT Share") at a price of $2.30 per FT Share.
The Company's largest shareholder, Electrum Strategic Opportunities Fund L.P. ("Electrum"), has indicated its intention to invest up to approximately $0.8 million in the Private Placement.
The net proceeds from the sale of the Common Shares will be used to fund the Company's proposed 2026 drill program, ongoing permitting activities and holding costs at the Company's Nickel Shäw Project located in the Yukon (the "Project"), and for general corporate expenses and working capital purposes. Gross proceeds from the sale of the FT Shares will be used to fund the Company's proposed 2026 drill program at the Project, as Canadian Exploration Expenses as defined in paragraph (f) of the definition of "Canadian exploration expense" in subsection 66.1(6) of the Tax Act and "flow through mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 127(9) of the Tax Act, which will be renounced with an effective date of no later than December 31, 2025 to initial purchasers of the FT Shares.
Closing of the Private Placement is expected to occur in November 2025 and remains subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") and other customary closing conditions for a transaction of this nature. The Common Shares and the FT Shares will be offered to accredited investors in Canada pursuant to applicable prospectus exemptions in accordance with NI 45-106, and in such other jurisdictions in which the Private Placement may be lawfully made, and will have a statutory hold period of four months and one day from closing.
In connection with the Private Placement, subject to acceptance by the TSXV, the Company will pay a finder's fee equal to 6% of the gross amount invested in the Private Placement by investors introduced to the Company by a finder, payable in Common Shares.
Pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"), the Private Placement will constitute a "related party transaction" as Electrum is a related party of the Company, given it holds greater than 10% of the outstanding Common Shares. The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements provided under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 on the basis that participation in the Private Placement by Electrum will not exceed 25% of the fair market value of the Company's market capitalization, as calculated in accordance with MI 61-101.

The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States unless registered under the 1933 Act and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements is available.
