NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Stated in thousands of United States Dollars)
(Unaudited)

1.NATURE OF OPERATIONS

i-80 Gold Corp ("i-80 Gold" or the "Company"), is a Nevada-focused, growth-oriented gold and silver producer engaged in the exploration, development and production of gold, silver and poly-metallic deposits. The Company's principal assets include the Ruby Hill Mine, Lone Tree Mine, Granite Creek Mine and McCoy-Cove Project. Each property is wholly-owned by the Company.

The Company was incorporated on November 10, 2020, in the province of British Columbia, Canada. The Company’s common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) under the symbol IAU and the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol IAUX. Its head office is located at Suite 460, 5190 Neil Road, Reno, Nevada, 89502.

2.BASIS OF PREPARATION

(a)Statement of compliance

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements (the "Financial Statements") have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). Accordingly, certain disclosures included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS Accounting Standards") as issued by the IASB have been condensed or omitted and these Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these Financial Statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, except for the adoption of amendments to IAS 1 as further described in Note 2 (e) of these Financial Statements.

These Financial Statements were approved and authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on May 13, 2024.

(b)Basis of presentation

These Financial Statements have been prepared using the measurement bases specified by IFRS Accounting Standards for each type of asset, liability, income and expense. Measurement bases are more fully described in the accounting policies below.

These Financial Statements have been prepared by management on a going concern basis in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. The going concern basis of presentation assumes the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.

The Company’s ability to execute its plan and fulfill its commitments as they come due is dependent upon its success in obtaining additional financing. While management has been successful in raising additional funds in the past, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future. Given the Company’s working capital deficit, current operating losses and management’s expectation of future losses until it has fully executed its strategy, the inability of the Company to arrange appropriate financing in a timely manner could result in the carrying value of the Company’s assets being subject to material adjustment. These conditions indicate the existence of material uncertainties which cast significant doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

These Financial Statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary if the Company is not able to continue as a going concern. Such adjustments could be material.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Stated in thousands of United States Dollars)
(Unaudited)
(c)Basis of consolidation

The Financial Statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company. Control is achieved when the Company is exposed to variable returns and has the ability to affect those returns through power to direct the relevant activities. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Company controls another entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Company. Subsidiaries will be de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. The Company's principal properties and material subsidiaries are as follows:

SubsidiaryLocationPercentage of ownershipPropertyPrinciple activity
Premier Gold Mines USA Inc.Nevada100%HoldingMineral exploration
Goldcorp Dee LLCHumboldt, Nevada100%Lone TreeProduction
Ruby Hill Mining Company LLCEureka, Nevada100%Ruby HillProduction
Osgood Mining Company LLCHumboldt, Nevada100%Granite CreekDevelopment
Au-Reka Gold LLCEureka, Nevada100%McCoy-CovePre-development
Golden Hill Mining LLCEureka, Nevada100%FADMineral exploration
Argenta LLCLander, Nevada100%InactiveMineral exploration

All transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated on consolidation, including unrealized gains and losses on transactions between the companies. Where unrealized losses on intra-group asset sales are reversed on consolidation, the underlying asset is also tested for impairment from a group perspective. Amounts reported in the financial statements of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Company. Profit or loss and other comprehensive income of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are recognized from the effective date of acquisition, or up to the effective date of disposal, as applicable.

(d)Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of the Company is the United States dollar ("USD" or "US dollars") which reflects the underlying transactions, events and conditions that are relevant to the entity. Management considers primary and secondary indicators in determining functional currency including the currency that influences sales prices, labor, purchases and other costs. Other indicators include the currency in which funds from financing activities are generated and the currency in which receipts from operations are usually retained.

Reference to $ or USD is to US dollars, reference to C$ or CAD is to Canadian dollars.

(e)Amended IFRS Accounting Standard effective January 1, 2024

In January 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements to clarify that liabilities are classified as either current or non-current, depending on the existence of the substantive right at the end of the reporting period for an entity to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. In addition, the amendments clarify that: (a) classification of liabilities as current or non-current should be based on rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period; (b) classification is unaffected by management’s intentions or expectations about whether the Company will exercise its right to defer settlement; (c) if the Company’s right to defer settlement is subject to the Company complying with specified conditions, only conditions with which the Company must comply on or before the reporting date affect the classification of a liability as current or non-current; (d) the term settlement refers to a transfer that extinguishes the liability and such transfer could be made in cash or other assets including the Company's own equity instruments. Furthermore, the amendments confirm that when the terms of the liability allow for settlement by the Company's own equity instruments at the option of the counterparty, settlement using the Company's own equity instruments is not considered in determining the classification of the liability. To meet this exception, the conversion option must have been separated from the liability and classified as an equity instrument in the financial statements of the Company. The amendments apply retrospectively for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024.

The Company adopted the amendments on the effective date applying the amendments retrospectively. Certain amounts in the comparative period have been reclassified to reflect the retrospective application, as further described below. Application of the amendments in the comparative period resulted in an increase in the current portion of other liabilities of $15.4 million, a corresponding decrease in the non-current portion of other liabilities of $15.4 million, an increase in the current portion of long-term debt of $56.4 million, and a corresponding decrease in the non-current portion of long-term debt of $56.4 million in the statement of financial position as at December 31, 2023.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Stated in thousands of United States Dollars)
(Unaudited)
Convertible loans

The Company entered into two convertible loans in 2021, as further described in Note 9 (i) and Note 9 (ii) of these Financial Statements. Each convertible loan contains a conversion feature which is classified as a derivative financial liability on the statement of financial position. In applying the definition of settlement it is clear that the Company does not have the right to defer settlement of the convertible loans for more than twelve months after the reporting date, as the holders can demand settlement of the liability in shares at any time in a manner that would extinguish the liability. Furthermore, as the settlement would be through the exercise of each holders right to convert the loan to the Company's equity under a conversion option that was classified as a liability on inception and not an equity instrument, the Company does not meet the exception criteria described above and would consider the settlement by transfer of the Company's own equity instrument to be an extinguishment of the liability. As a result, the convertible loans, including the conversion features classified as derivative liabilities, both of which were previously classified as non-current liabilities, have been reclassified within current liabilities in the statement of financial position at December 31, 2023 to reflect the retrospective application of the amendments.

Convertible debentures

The Company closed a private placement offering of secured convertible debentures in 2023, as further described in Note 9 (iii) of these Financial Statements. The convertible debentures contain a conversion feature which is classified as an equity instrument on the statement of financial position. In applying the definition of settlement it is clear that the Company does not have the right to defer settlement of the convertible loans for more than twelve months after the reporting date, as the holders can demand settlement of the liability in shares at any time in a manner that would extinguish the liability. However, as the settlement would be through the exercise of the holders right to convert the debt to the entity’s equity under a conversion option that was classified as equity on inception, it is ignored for purposes of determining the classification of the host liability on the statement of financial position. In accordance with the amendments to IAS 1 the Company concluded it has the right to defer settlement of the liability for more than twelve months as the maturity date is February 22, 2027, thereby, the Company determined there was no impact to the classification of the convertible debentures on application of the amendments.

Warrant liability

The Company issued warrants as further described in Note 11 (i) of these Financial Statements. Each whole warrant issued entitles the holder to acquire a common share of the Company, at a fixed Canadian dollar price over a specified term. The warrants are considered derivatives because their exercise price is in C$ whereas the Company’s functional currency is in USD. Accordingly, the Company recognizes the warrants as liabilities. In applying the definition of settlement it is clear that the Company does not have the right to defer settlement of the warrants for more than twelve months after the reporting date, as the warrants can be exercised at anytime time in a manner that would extinguish the liability. Furthermore, as the warrants were classified as a liability at inception and not an equity instrument, the Company does not meet the exception criteria described above and would consider the settlement by transfer of the Company's own equity instrument to be an extinguishment of the liability. As a result, the warrants which were previously classified within non-current liabilities, have been reclassified within current liabilities in the statement of financial position at December 31, 2023 to reflect the retrospective application of the amendments.

Deferred share units

The Company granted deferred share units ("DSU") to eligible members of the Board of Directors, as further described in Note 12 (e) of these Financial Statents. DSUs must be retained until the Director leaves the Board, at which time the awards will be equity or cash settled. DSUs are classified as a financial liability in the statement of financial position. In applying the definition of settlement it is clear that the Company does not have the right to defer settlement of vested DSUs for more than twelve months after the reporting date, as the DSUs are redeemable when a Director leaves the Board in a manner that would extinguish the liability. Furthermore, as the DSUs were classified as a liability at inception and not an equity instrument, the Company does not meet the exception criteria described above and would consider the settlement by transfer of the Company's own equity instrument to be an extinguishment of the liability. As a result, vested DSUs which were previously classified within non-current liabilities, have been reclassified within current liabilities in the statement of financial position at December 31, 2023 to reflect the retrospective application of the amendments.

3.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of these Financial Statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of commitments and contingent liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgement based on various assumptions and other factors such as historical experience, current and expected economic conditions. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of these Financial Statements that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and earnings within the next financial year were the same as those applied in the most recent annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, except for the adoption of amendments to IAS 1 as further described in Note 2 (e) of these Financial Statements.

4.CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS

Private Placement of Common Shares

During the first quarter of 2024 the Company completed a non-brokered private placement of common shares. An aggregate of 13,064,204 shares were issued by the Company at a price of C$1.80 per common share for aggregate gross proceeds of C$23.5 million ($17.4 million). Certain directors and/or officers of the Company subscribed for C$0.3 million in common shares under the private placement.

Acquisition of Paycore

On May 5, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of Paycore Minerals Inc. ("Paycore"). Paycore’s principal asset is the FAD property that is host to the FAD deposit located immediately south of, and adjoining, the Company’s Ruby Hill Property located in Eureka County, Nevada. The acquisition consolidates the northern portion of the Eureka District, increasing the Company’s land package at Ruby Hill.

The Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Paycore at an exchange ratio of 0.68 i-80 Gold common share for each Paycore common share held (the “Exchange Ratio”). All outstanding options and warrants of Paycore that were not exercised prior to the acquisition date were replaced with i-80 Gold options and warrants, as adjusted in accordance with the Exchange Ratio.

The Paycore acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition as management determined that substantially all the fair value of the gross assets acquired were concentrated on the FAD mineral property. The components of consideration that were paid is detailed in the table below:

Components of consideration paid:
Share consideration (i)$66,037
Common shares issued in relation to contingent value rights (ii)12,750
Replacement warrants (iii)2,675
Replacement options (iii)2,515

(i)    The fair value of 25,488,584 common shares issued to Paycore shareholders was determined using the Company's share price of C$3.46 per share on the acquisition date.

(ii)    Following completion of the arrangement and in accordance with the Amendment to the Contingent Value Rights Agreement dated February 26, 2023 among the Company, Paycore, Golden Hill Mining LLC, and Waterton Nevada Splitter, LLC and Waterton Nevada Splitter II, LLC (collectively, "Waterton"), all of the obligations outstanding under the outstanding contingent value rights agreement between Paycore, Golden Hill Mining LLC and Waterton dated April 20, 2022, with an aggregate value of $12.75 million were satisfied through the issuance of 5,016,991 i-80 Gold common shares to Waterton on May 9, 2023. The fair value of 5,016,991 common shares issued to Waterton was determined using the Company's share price of C$3.46 per share on the acquisition date.

(iii)    The fair value of 1,727,200 replacement options and 3,755,257 replacement warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions:

(iv) On May 5, 2023 and immediately prior to the Paycore acquisition the Company owned 2,336,200 Paycore common shares. The Company's investment in Paycore was remeasured at fair value on the acquisition date using the Exchange Ratio and the Company's share price of C$3.46 per share on the acquisition date with the change in fair value recognized through the statement of loss as further described in Note 17 of these Financial Statements.

(a)Impairment

The Company regularly reviews the carrying amount of its non-financial assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. Mineral property interests are tested for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. In the absence of other factors, a mineral property that has not been actively explored within the past three years and for which no future exploration plans exist will be considered to be impaired. There were no impairments recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023.

(b)Acquisitions and option agreements

Ruby Hill Property

During the fourth quarter of 2023 the Company entered into a non-binding term sheet in connection with a potential joint venture with an arm's length party at the Company's Ruby Hill property. In connection with the term sheet, the Company granted the potential partner exclusivity for a period of 120 days subject to extension for an additional 60-day period, in order to complete metallurgical due diligence and negotiate definitive documents. During the exclusivity period, the Company will complete a drill campaign, funded by the potential partner. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company received funding of $2.1 million from the potential partner for costs incurred in relation to the potential joint venture.

Granite Creek Project

As part of the consideration for the Company's acquisition of Osgood Mining Company LLC ("Osgood") from Waterton Global Resource Management, Inc. (“Waterton”), the Company assumed a contingent value rights obligation which included a payment to Waterton in the amount of $5.0 million upon the public announcement of a positive production decision related to the Granite Creek Project (underground or open pit) (the "Production Payment"), and an additional $5.0 million upon production of the first ounce of gold (excluding ordinary testing and bulk sampling programs) following a 60 consecutive day period where gold prices have exceeded $2,000 per ounce (the "Price Payment").

The Osgood acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition as management determined that substantially all the fair value of the gross assets acquired were concentrated on the Granite Creek Project mineral property. For contingent consideration and payments related to asset acquisitions, an accounting policy choice exists, and an entity may recognize a liability for the expected variable payments at the time control of the underlying asset is obtained or they may only recognize such a liability as the related activity that gives rise to the variability occurs. For the Osgood acquisition, management did not recognize a liability for contingent payments as the conditions required for these payments had not been met as of the date the assets were acquired.

(i)Orion Convertible Loan

On December 13, 2021, the Company entered into a Convertible Credit Agreement with OMF Fund III (F) Ltd., an affiliate of Orion Mine Finance ("Orion") to borrow $50 million (the "Orion Convertible Loan"). The Orion Convertible Loan bears interest at a rate of 8.0% annually and matures on December 13, 2025. The Orion Convertible Loan contains a change of control feature, a conversion feature, and a forced conversion feature that are considered embedded derivatives by the Company. The change of control feature and conversion feature are classified as derivative financial liabilities, measured at FVTPL, whereas the forced conversion feature is classified as an equity instrument measured at fair value on inception and is not subsequently remeasured. During the period ended March 31, 2024, none of the features were exercised. The derivative financial liability was recorded at $13.6 million at inception and $3.8 million at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - $9.0 million). For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded a fair value gain of $5.3 million (2023 - $7.3 million) related to the valuation of the embedded derivatives through the statement of loss as further described in Note 17 of these Financial Statements. The equity instrument was recorded at $2.0 million at inception and period end. Interest expense is calculated by applying the effective interest rate of 18.90% to the host liability component. Interest expense is included in finance expense.

The initial fair value of the liability portion of the convertible loan was determined using a market interest rate for an equivalent non- convertible loan at the issue date. The liability is subsequently recognized on an amortized cost basis until extinguished on change of control, conversion or maturity of the loan. The remainder of the proceeds, after removing components classified as liabilities, is allocated to the forced conversion option and recognized in shareholder's equity, net of income tax, and not subsequently remeasured.

As a result of the amendments to IAS 1 as further described in Note 2 (e) of these Financial Statements, the Orion Convertible Loan, including the conversion feature classified as a derivative liability, both of which were previously classified as non-current liabilities, have been reclassified within current liabilities in the statement of financial position at December 31, 2023 to reflect the retrospective application of the amendments to IAS 1.

(ii)Sprott Convertible Loan

On December 10, 2021, the Company entered into a Convertible Credit Agreement with a fund managed by Sprott Asset Management USA, Inc. and a fund managed by CNL Strategic Asset Management, LLC (“Sprott”) to borrow $10 million (the "Sprott Convertible Loan"). The Sprott Convertible Loan bears interest at a rate of 8.0% annually and matures on December 9, 2025. The Sprott Convertible Loan contains a change of control feature, a conversion feature, and a forced conversion feature that are considered embedded derivatives by the Company. The change of control feature and conversion feature are classified as derivative financial liabilities, measured at FVTPL whereas the forced conversion feature is classified as an equity instrument measured at fair value on inception and is not subsequently remeasured. During the second quarter of 2023, Sprott converted $1.8 million in principal and $0.2 million in interest into 800,449 common shares of the Company. During the period ended March 31, 2024, none of the features were exercised. The derivative financial liability was recorded at $2.7 million at inception and $0.6 million at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - $1.5 million). For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded a fair value gain of $0.9 million (2023 - $1.1 million) related to the valuation of the embedded derivatives through the statement of loss as further described in Note 17 of these Financial Statements. The equity instrument was recorded at $0.4 million at inception and $0.3 million at period end. Interest expense is calculated by applying the effective interest rate of 14.92% to the host liability component. Interest expense is included in finance expense.

(Unaudited)
The initial fair value of the liability portion of the convertible loan was determined using a market interest rate for an equivalent non- convertible loan at the issue date. The liability is subsequently recognized on an amortized cost basis until extinguished on control, conversion or maturity of the loan. The remainder of the proceeds, after removing components classified as liabilities, is allocated to the forced conversion option and recognized in shareholder's equity, net of income tax, and not subsequently remeasured.

Under the Sprott Convertible Loan and Orion Convertible Loan (the "Convertible Loans"), if a change of control occurs prior to the maturity date, the Company shall make an offer to prepay the Convertible Loans in cash, in an amount equal to 101% of the then outstanding principal amount. Outstanding amounts under the Convertible Loans are convertible into common shares of the Company at any time prior to maturity at the option of the applicable respective lender (a) in the case of the outstanding principal, C$3.275 per common share, and (b) in the case of accrued and unpaid interest, subject to TSX approval, at the market price of the common shares on the TSX at time of the conversion of such interest. Commencing 120 days following the closing date of the Convertible Loans, on any date when the volume weighted average price equals or exceeds 150% of the conversion price for each of the preceding 20 days, the Company may at its option elect to require the lenders to convert at the conversion price all of the then outstanding principal amount and any accrued and unpaid interest into common shares of the Company.

As a result of the amendments to IAS 1 as further described in Note 2 (e) of these financial statements, the Sprott Convertible Loan, including the conversion feature classified as a derivative liability, both of which were previously classified as non-current liabilities, have been reclassified within current liabilities in the statement of financial position at December 31, 2023 to reflect the retrospective application of the amendments to IAS 1.

(iii)Convertible Debentures

On February 22, 2023, the Company closed a private placement offering of $65 million principal amount of secured Convertible Debentures of the Company. The Convertible Debentures bear interest at a fixed rate of 8.00% per annum and will mature on February 22, 2027. Outstanding amounts under the Convertible Debentures are convertible into common shares of the Company at any time prior to maturity at the option of the applicable respective lender (a) in the case of the outstanding principal, $3.38 per common share, and (b) in the case of accrued and unpaid interest, subject to TSX approval, at the market price of the common shares at time of the conversion of such interest.

The Convertible Debentures contain a conversion feature, a change of control feature, and a forced conversion feature that are considered embedded derivatives by the Company. The change of control feature is classified as a derivative financial liability and the forced conversion feature is classified as a derivative financial asset, both measured at FVTPL whereas the conversion feature is classified as an equity instrument measured at fair value on inception and is not subsequently remeasured. During the period ended March 31, 2024, none of the features were exercised. The change of control liability was recorded at $1.4 million at inception and nil at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - nil) and the forced conversion asset was recorded at $0.9 million at inception and $0.4 million at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - $0.4 million). The equity instrument was recorded at $18.9 million at inception and at March 31, 2024. Interest expense is calculated by applying the effective interest rate of 19% to the host equity component. Interest expense is included in finance expense.

Under the Convertible Debentures if a change of control occurs prior to the maturity date, the Company shall make an offer to prepay the Convertible Debentures in cash, in an amount equal to 104% of the then outstanding principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Convertible Debentures up to, and including, the change of control purchase date. The holder of the Convertible Debentures shall have the right, at any time, to convert all or any portion of the principal amount of the Convertible Debentures into common shares of the Company at the conversion price of $3.38 per common share. The holder shall also have the option to elect to convert all or any portion of the accrued and unpaid interest into common shares at a price equal to the greater of (i) the conversion price, (ii) the current market price of the common shares on NYSE at the time of the conversion of such amounts owing, or (iii) 5-day VWAP of the common shares on the TSX. If after 120 days after the issue date and prior to the maturity date, the VWAP of the common shares of the Company as measured in U.S. dollars on the NYSE American equals or exceeds 150% of the conversion price for 20 consecutive trading days, the Company shall have right to convert all but not less than all of the principal amount of the Convertible Debentures, and subject to the approval of the TSX or any applicable stock exchange, all accrued and unpaid interest on the Convertible Debentures (however, that such conversion price of the accrued and unpaid interest must not be less than the VWAP of the common shares on the TSX during the five trading days immediately preceding the relevant date), into common shares at the conversion price. The Convertible Debentures are not redeemable prior to the maturity date. Certain directors and/or officers of the Company subscribed for $0.23 million in principal amount of Convertible Debentures under the offering.

(iv)Gold Prepay Agreement

On December 13, 2021, the Company entered into a gold prepay agreement with Orion (the "Gold Prepay Agreement"). In April 2022, the Gold Prepay Agreement was amended to adjust the quantity of the quarterly deliveries of gold, but not the aggregate amount of gold, to be delivered by the Company to Orion over the term of the Gold Prepay Agreement. Under the terms of the amended Gold Prepay Agreement, in exchange for $41.9 million, the Company is required to deliver to Orion 3,100 troy ounces of gold for the quarter ending June 30, 2022, and thereafter, 2,100 troy ounces of gold per calendar quarter until September 30, 2025, for aggregate deliveries of 30,400 troy ounces of gold.

On September 20, 2023, the Company entered into an A&R Gold Prepay Agreement with Orion pursuant to which the Company received aggregate gross proceeds of $20.0 million (the "2023 Gold Prepay Accordion") structured as an additional accordion under the existing Gold Prepay Agreement. The 2023 Gold Prepay Accordion will be repaid through the delivery by the Company to Orion of 13,333 troy ounces of gold over a period of 12 quarters, being 1,110 troy ounces of gold per quarter over the delivery period with the first delivery being 1,123 troy ounces of gold. The first delivery will occur on March 31, 2024, and the last delivery will occur on December 31, 2026. The remaining terms of the A&R Gold Prepay Agreement remain substantially the same as the existing Gold Prepay Agreement. The Company may request an increase in the prepayment by an additional amount not exceeding $50 million in aggregate in accordance with the terms of the A&R Gold Prepay Agreement.

The A&R Gold Prepay Agreement is recognized as a financial liability at amortized cost and it contains an embedded derivative in relation to the embedded gold price within the agreement that is measured at FVTPL each reporting period, as further described in Note 11 (v) and Note 21 (d) of these Financial Statements. Interest expense is calculated by applying the effective interest rate of 24.48% to the financial liability. Interest expense is included in finance expense. In determining that the A&R Gold Prepay Agreement modification was non-substantial, management accounted for the modification as an adjustment to the existing liability and used the original effective interest rate of the Gold Prepay Agreement to determine the fair value of the 2023 Gold Prepay Accordion. The 2023 Gold Prepay Accordion liability was recorded at fair value at inception of $18.1 million.

On March 28, 2024, the Company entered into an amending agreement in relation to the A&R Gold Prepay Agreement with Orion pursuant to which the March 31, 2024 quarterly delivery of 3,223 troy ounces of gold was extended from March 31, 2024, to April 15, 2024 (the "First Amending Agreement"). Subsequent to the period ended March 31, 2024, the Company entered into a second amending agreement with Orion, as further described in Note 23 of these Financial Statements.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had delivered 15,700 troy ounces of gold towards the A&R Gold Prepay Agreement with Orion, leaving 28,033 troy ounces of gold remaining to be delivered under the agreement. Subsequent to the period ended March 31, 2024, the Company delivered 3,223 troy ounces of gold to Orion in relation to the March 31, 2024 quarterly delivery.

(v)Silver Purchase Agreement

On December 13, 2021, in exchange for $30.0 million, the Company entered into a silver purchase and sale agreement with Orion (the "Silver Purchase Agreement"). Under the Silver Purchase Agreement, commencing April 30, 2022, the Company will deliver to Orion 100% of the silver production from the Granite Creek and Ruby Hill projects until the delivery of 1.2 million ounces of silver, after which the delivery will be reduced to 50% until the delivery of an aggregate of 2.5 million ounces of silver, after which the delivery will be reduced to 10% of the silver production solely from Ruby Hill Project. Orion will pay the Company an ongoing cash purchase price equal to 20% of the prevailing silver price. Until the delivery of an aggregate of 1.2 million ounces of silver, the Company is required to deliver the following minimum amounts of silver ("the Annual Minimum Delivery Amount") in each calendar year: (i) in 2022, 300,000 ounces, (ii) in 2023, 400,000 ounces, (iii) in 2024, 400,000 ounces, and (iv) in 2025, 100,000 ounces. In the event that in a calendar year the amount of silver delivered under the Silver Purchase Agreement is less than the Annual Minimum Delivery Amount, the Company shall make up such difference (the “Shortfall Amount”) by delivering on or before the fifteenth day of the month immediately following such calendar year (the "Delivery Deadline"). At the Company’s sole option, the obligation to make up the Shortfall Amount to Orion may be satisfied by the delivery of refined gold instead of refined silver, at a ratio of 1/75th ounce of refined gold for each ounce of refined silver. The Silver Purchase Agreement was funded April 2022.

On January 12, 2024, the Company entered into an extension agreement in relation to the Silver Purchase Agreement with Orion pursuant to which the 2023 Shortfall Amount Delivery Deadline was extended from January 15, 2024, to April 15, 2024 (the "Extension Agreement"). In connection with the Extension Agreement the Company paid an amendment fee of $0.2 million and issued 0.5 million common share warrants exercisable at C$2.717 per share with an exercise period of 48 months or until January 24, 2028. Subsequent to the period ended March 31, 2024, the Company entered into an amending agreement with Orion, as further described in Note 23 of these Financial Statements.

(Stated in thousands of United States Dollars)
(Unaudited)
The Silver Purchase Agreement is recognized as a financial liability at amortized cost and it contains two embedded derivatives as further described in Note 6 (i) and Note 21 (d) of these Financial Statements. Interest expense is calculated by applying the effective interest rate of 12.28% to the financial liability. Interest expense is included in finance expense.

The obligations under the A&R Gold Prepay Agreement and Silver Purchase Agreement are senior secured obligations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Ruby Hill Mining Company LLC, and Osgood Mining Company LLC, and secured against the Ruby Hill project in Eureka County, Nevada and the Granite Creek project in Humboldt County, Nevada.

(vi)Lease liability

Lease liabilities relate to leases on buildings and mobile mining equipment which have a remaining lease term between one and four years and an interest rate between 3.3% and 14.4% over the term of the lease.

The schedule of undiscounted lease payment obligations is as follows:
March 31, 2024
Less than one year$194 
One to three years67 
More than three years28 
Total undiscounted lease liabilities$289 

10.PROVISION FOR ENVIRONMENTAL REHABILITATION

The Company's provision for environmental rehabilitation results from mining activities and previously mined property interests. The provision consists primarily of costs associated with mine reclamation and closure activities. These activities, which tend to be site specific, generally include costs for decommissioning the mill complex and related infrastructure, physical and chemical stability of the tailings area and, post-closure site security and monitoring costs. The Company considers such factors as changes in laws and regulations, and requirements under existing permits in determining the estimated costs. Such analysis is performed on an on-going basis.

The Company estimates that the undiscounted un-inflated value of the cash flows required to settle the provision is $66.2 million for the Lone Tree property, $18.4 million for the Ruby Hill property, $8.6 million for the McCoy-Cove property, $2.1 million for the Granite Creek property, and $1.2 million for the Argenta property. In calculating the best estimate of the Company's provision, management used risk-free interest rates ranging from 3.84% to 4.20%. A reconciliation of the discounted provision is provided below:

Waterton warrants

In connection with the acquisition of Osgood the Company issued to Waterton 12.1 million common share warrants which are exercisable into one fully paid and non-assessable common share of the Company at an exercise price of C$3.64 per share until April 14, 2024. The warrants included a four month hold period. The initial fair value of the warrants recognized on inception was $6.1 million and at March 31, 2024 nil (December 31, 2023 - $0.1 million). During the first quarter of 2023, Waterton exercised 0.4 million warrants to purchase 0.4 million common shares of the Company.

Orion warrants

In connection with the Orion financing package the Company completed during the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company issued 5.5 million common share warrants exercisable at C$3.275 per share with an exercise period of 36 months or until December 13, 2024. On September 20, 2023, in connection with the A&R Gold Prepay Agreement the Company extended the expiry date by an additional twelve months to December 13, 2025. The initial fair value of the warrants recognized on inception was $3.5 million and at March 31, 2024 $0.9 million (December 31, 2023 - $2.0 million)

In connection with the A&R Gold Prepay Agreement entered into during the third quarter of 2023, the Company issued 3.8 million common share warrants exercisable at C$3.17 per share with an exercise period of 36 months or until September 20, 2026. The warrants included a four month hold period. The initial fair value of the warrants recognized on inception was $1.9 million and at March 31, 2024 $0.9 million (December 31, 2023 - $1.8 million).

In connection with the Extension Agreement entered into during the first quarter of 2024, the Company issued 0.5 million common share warrants exercisable at C$2.72 per share with an exercise period of 48 months or until January 24, 2028. The warrants include a four month hold period. The initial fair value of the warrants recognized on inception was $0.3 million and at March 31, 2024 $0.2 million.

Paycore replacement warrants

In connection with the Paycore acquisition discussed in Note 4 of these Financial Statements, the Company issued a total of 3.8 million common share warrants for Paycore warrants outstanding on the date of acquisition. The replacement warrants are comprised of 0.2 million common share warrants at an exercise price of C$3.09 per common share until April 20, 2024, 0.3 million common share warrants at an exercise price of C$2.40 per common share until February 9, 2025, and 3.3 million common share warrants at an exercise price of C$4.02 per common share until May 2, 2025. The initial fair value of the warrants recognized on inception was $2.7 million and at March 31, 2024 $0.1 million (December 31, 2023 - $0.6 million).

The warrants are considered derivatives because their exercise price is in C$ whereas the Company’s functional currency is in USD. Accordingly, the Company recognizes the warrants as liabilities at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized a gain on the revaluation of the liability of $2.6 million (2023 - $5.6 million) through the statement of loss as further described in Note 17 of these Financial Statements.

As a result of the amendments to IAS 1 as further described in Note 2 (e) of these Financial Statements, the warrants which were previously classified within non-current liabilities, have been reclassified within current liabilities in the statement of financial position at December 31, 2023 to reflect the retrospective application of the amendments.

As of March 31, 2024, there were 25,216,409 warrants outstanding (December 31, 2023 - 24,716,409).

(ii)Share-based payment liability

The Company recognized a share-based payment liability of $1.4 million at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - $1.2 million) under the Company's restricted and deferred share unit plans as discussed in Note 12 (e) of these Financial Statements. The current portion of the liability is $1.0 million at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - $0.9 million).

As a result of the amendments to IAS 1 as further described in Note 2 (e) of these Financial Statements, vested DSUs which were previously classified within non-current liabilities, have been reclassified within current liabilities in the statement of financial position at December 31, 2023 to reflect the retrospective application of the amendments.

(iii)Conversion and change of control right

The financial liability represents the conversion and change of control rights included in the Orion and Sprott Convertible Loans as further described in Note 9 (i), Note 9 (ii) and Note 21 (d) of these Financial Statements.

(iv)Offtake liability

The financial liability represents the gold look back component of the offtake agreement. The Company originally entered into an offtake agreement with Orion in April 2021 (the “Offtake Agreement”) to sell (i) an aggregate of 29,750 ounces of refined gold for 2021, and (ii) up to an aggregate of 31,500 ounces of refined gold annually (the "Annual Gold Quantity") from the Company's Eligible Projects until March 1, 2027. The Offtake Agreement was amended and restated (the “A&R Offtake Agreement”) in December 2021. The main amendments reflected in the A&R Offtake Agreement include the increase in the term of the agreement to December 31, 2028, the inclusion of the Granite Creek and Ruby Hill projects, and the increase of the annual gold quantity to up to an aggregate of 37,500 ounces in respect of the 2022 and 2023 calendar years and up to an aggregate of 40,000 ounces in any calendar year after 2023. The final purchase price to be paid by Orion will be, at Orion’s option, a market referenced gold price in US dollars per ounce during a defined pricing period before and after the date of each sale. In the event that the Company does not produce the Annual Gold Quantity in any given year, the obligation is limited to those ounces actually produced. During 2022, Orion assigned all of its rights, title and interest under the A&R Offtake Agreement to TRR Offtakes LLC ("Trident").

(v)Gold Prepay Agreement embedded derivative

The financial liability represents the embedded derivative in relation to the fixed gold price included in the Gold Prepay Agreement as further described in Note 9 (iv) and Note 21 (d) of these Financial Statements. The Company recognizes the embedded derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded a fair value loss of $3.5 million (2023 - $3.1 million) related to the valuation of the embedded derivative through the statement of loss as further described in Note 17 of these Financial Statements.

(vi)Silver Purchase Agreement embedded derivative

The liability balance represents the non-current portion of the embedded derivative in relation to the fixed silver price included in the Silver Purchase Agreement as further described in Note 6 (i), Note 9 (v) and Note 21 (d) of these Financial Statements.

(e)Restricted and Deferred Share Unit Plan

The Company adopted the RSU plan to allow the Board of Directors to grant its employees non-transferable share units based on the value of the Company's share price at the date of grant. The awards have a graded vesting schedule over a three-year period. Under the RSU plan, the awards can be equity or cash settled immediately upon vesting.

The Company adopted the DSU plan to grant members of its Board of Directors non-transferable share units based on the value of the Company's share price at the date of grant. The awards have a graded vesting schedule over a three-year period. DSUs must be retained until the Director leaves the Board, at which time the awards will be equity or cash settled.

The following table summarizes the continuity of the RSUs and DSUs for the period ended March 31, 2024:

As the RSUs and DSUs are expected to be settled in cash, at March 31, 2024 a current liability of $1.0 million and a long-term liability of $0.4 million was outstanding and included in other liabilities (December 31, 2023 - $0.9 million and $0.2 million, respectively). For the three months ended March 31, 2024, $0.2 million has been recorded as an expense and included in share-based payments (2023 - $0.2 million). The total fair value of the vested and unvested RSUs and DSUs at March 31, 2024 was C$6.1 million (December 31, 2023 - $2.4 million).

13.BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE

Basic loss per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023. Diluted loss per share is based on the assumption that stock options and warrants that have an exercise price less than the average market price of the Company's common shares during the period have been exercised on the later of the beginning of the year and the date granted. Net loss and basic weighted average shares outstanding are reconciled to diluted loss and diluted weighted average shares outstanding, respectively, as follows:

Three months ended

11,285,193 stock options (Note 12 (d)) and 25,216,409 warrants (Note 11 (i)) were excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2024 (2023 - 9,527,123 and 17,211,152, respectively) as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

20.COMMITMENTS

Surety bonds

At March 31, 2024, the Company has outstanding surety bonds in the amount of $132.8 million in favour of either the United States Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management ("BLM"), or the State of Nevada, Department of Conservation & Natural Resources as financial support for environmental reclamation and exploration permitting. This includes surety bonds for the Lone Tree project and the Ruby Hill property in the amounts of $87.0 million and $27.0 million, respectively. The surety bonds are secured by a $39.0 million deposit (December 31, 2023 - $44.5 million) and are subject to fees competitively determined in the marketplace. During the first quarter of 2024, $6.0 million in cash collateral was returned to the Company. The obligations associated with these instruments are generally related to performance requirements that the Company addresses through its ongoing operations. As specific requirements are met, the BLM and State of Nevada as beneficiary of the instruments, will return the instruments to the issuing entity. As these instruments are associated with operating sites with long-lived assets, they will remain outstanding until closure.

21.FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company's operations include the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties in the State of Nevada. The Company examines the various financial risks to which it is exposed and assesses the impact and likelihood of occurrence. These risks may include credit risk, liquidity risk, currency risk, interest rate risk and other risks. Where material, these risks are reviewed and monitored by the Board of Directors.

(a)Credit risk

Counterparty credit risk is the risk that the financial benefits of contracts with a specific counterparty will be lost if a counterparty defaults on its obligations under the contract. This includes any cash amounts owed to the Company by those counterparties, less any amounts owed to the counterparty by the Company where a legal right of offset exists and also includes the fair values of contracts with individual counterparties which are recorded in the Financial Statements.

(i)Trade credit risk

The Company closely monitors its financial assets and does not have any significant concentration of trade credit risk. The Company sells its products exclusively to large international financial institutions and other organizations with strong credit ratings. The historical level of customer defaults is negligible and, as a result, the credit risk associated with trade receivables is considered to be negligible. The trade receivable balance outstanding was $1.9 million at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - $4.2 million)

(ii)Cash

In order to manage credit and liquidity risk the Company invests only in highly rated investment grade instruments that have maturities of 90 days or less and which are liquid after 30 days or less into a known amount of cash. Limits are also established based on the type of investment, the counterparty and the credit rating. The credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is therefore negligible.

(b)Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company manages liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure.

The following table summarizes the Company's contractual maturities and the timing of cash flows as at March 31, 2024. The amounts presented are based on the undiscounted contractual cash flows and may not agree with the carrying amounts on the Financial Statements.

(Stated in thousands of United States Dollars)
(Unaudited)
(i) Includes principal and interest payments due at maturity. Outstanding amounts under the Convertible Loans and Convertible Debentures can be converted into common shares of the Company at any time prior to maturity at the option of the applicable respective lender, or under certain conditions at the election of the Company, as further described in Notes 9 (i), (ii), and (iii) of these Financial Statements.

(ii) The Convertible Loans are classified within current liabilities in the statement of financial position as a result of the application of the amendments to IAS 1, as further described in Note 2 (e) of these Financial Statements. The Convertible Loans mature December 2025, and accordingly have been presented in the 1-2 year time band in the table above.

(c)Market risk

(i)Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. As the Company holds excess cash in interest bearing bank accounts rather than investments, the interest rate risk is minimal.

(ii)Currency risk

Currency risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Currency risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the Company’s functional currency. The Company’s management monitors the exchange rate fluctuations on a continuous basis and acts accordingly.

(d)Fair value

(i)Definitions

IFRS 13 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the input to valuation techniques used to measure fair value as follows:
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and

Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

(ii)Valuation techniques used to determine fair values

The Company calculates fair values based on the following methods of valuation and assumptions:

a.Financial assets

Financial assets other than the Company's derivative assets described below are carried at amortized cost. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents and receivables approximate their carrying value due to their short-term nature.

b.Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities not classified as fair value through profit or loss are carried at amortized cost. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying value due to their short term nature.

Share-based payment and warrant liabilities

The share-based payment and warrant liabilities are classified within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and are fair valued using a valuation model that incorporates such factors as the Company’s share price volatility, risk free rates and expiry dates including managements assumptions on forfeiture rates.

Deferred consideration

Deferred consideration related to Ruby Hill was recognized at fair value on acquisition and in the comparative period prior to settlement by the Company during the third quarter of 2023, as further described in Note 11 (vii) of the Consolidated Financial Statements. This liability was classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as it involved management's best estimate of whether or not the key activities as described in Note 11 (vii) of these Financial Statements required for each milestone payment would be achieved. Management assumed that all milestones would be achieved and the early repayment option would be taken. The fair value of the deferred consideration was the present value of projected future cash flows using a discount rate of 7.5%.

Convertible Loans

The Convertible Loans contain conversion and change of control rights that are separately measured at FVTPL each reporting period (level 3). In determining the fair value at each reporting period, management judgement is required in respect to input variables of the financial model used for estimation purposes. These variables include such inputs as managements estimate of the probability and date of a change of control event, the Company's share price, share price variability, credit spreads, and interest rates. The forced conversion rights were measured at fair value on inception but do not get revalued subsequently.

A&R Gold Prepay Agreement

The A&R Gold Prepay Agreement is recognized as a financial liability at amortized cost and it contains an embedded derivative in relation to the embedded gold price within the agreement that is measured at FVTPL each reporting period (level 3). In determining the fair value of the embedded derivative at each reporting period, management judgement is required in respect to input variables of the financial model used for estimation purposes. These variables include such inputs as metal prices, metal price volatility, and risk free borrowing rates.

As further described in Note 9 (iv) of these Financial Statements the Company entered into an A&R Gold Prepay Agreement with Orion during the third quarter of 2023. Management followed the guidance within IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments and determined that the modification to the agreement was non-substantial and accordingly, the Company accounted for the modification as an adjustment to the existing liability. In performing this assessment management used a discounted cash flow analysis incorporating key inputs such as expected metal prices, metal price volatility and risk free borrowing rates.

Silver Purchase Agreement

The Silver Purchase Agreement is recognized as a financial liability at amortized cost and it contains two embedded derivatives; one in relation to the embedded silver price within the agreement and the other in relation to the gold substitution option whereby i-80 Gold can choose to deliver gold instead of silver at a ratio of 75:1, both are measured at FVTPL each reporting period (level 3). On initial recognition and at March 31, 2024, the gold substitution option did not have any value. In determining the fair value of the embedded derivatives at each reporting period, management judgement is required in respect to input variables of the financial model used for estimation purposes. These variables include such inputs as metal prices, metal price volatility, risk free borrowing rates and the Company's production profile.

Convertible Debentures

The Convertible Debentures were assessed for derivatives within the agreement and a number of instruments were identified that had to be separated from the host contract and valued on a standalone basis. These instruments were valued using a LongstaffSchwartx MonteCarlo simulation, assuming they follow correlated Geometric Brownian Motion and modeling the payoffs of each financial instrument in the Convertible Debentures. The derivatives (including embedded) were fair valued with the residual balance being allocated to the host contracts.

The Convertible Debentures contain forced conversion and change of control options that are separately measured at FVTPL each reporting period (level 3) whilst the host contract is measured at amortized cost. In determining the fair value at each reporting period, management judgement is required in respect to input variables of the financial model used for estimation purposes. These variables include such inputs as managements estimate of the probability and date of a change of control event, the Company's share price, share price variability, credit spreads, and interest rates

22.MANAGEMENT OF CAPITAL

The Company manages its share capital and equity settled employee benefits reserve as capital, the balance of which is $530.1 million at March 31, 2024 ($508.6 million at December 31, 2023). The Company's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company's ability to continue as a going-concern in order to pursue the exploration and development of its mineral properties and to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the costs of capital at an acceptable risk.

The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares, acquire or dispose of assets or acquire new debt.

In order to maximize ongoing exploration and development efforts, the Company does not pay out dividends. The Company's investment policy is to invest its short-term excess cash in highly liquid short-term interest-bearing investments with short-term maturities, selected with regard to the expected timing of expenditures from continuing operations.

To effectively manage its capital requirements, the Company has in place a planning and budgeting process to help determine the funds required to ensure the Company has the appropriate liquidity to meet its operating and growth objectives.

23.SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Bought Deal Public Offering

On May 1, 2024, the Company completed a bought deal public offering of an aggregate of 69,698,050 units (each, a “Unit“) at a price of C$1.65 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately C$115 million (the “Offering“), including the full exercise of the previously announced over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant of the Company. Each warrant is exercisable to acquire one common share of the Company for a period of 48 months from closing of the Offering at an exercise price of C$2.15 per share.

The underwriters were paid a cash commission equal to 5% of the gross proceeds of the Offering, excluding proceeds from sales of Units to certain president’s list purchasers. The Offering was completed pursuant to a short form prospectus dated April 25, 2024 (the “Prospectus“). Certain directors and officers of the Company purchased an aggregate of 300,000 Units pursuant to the Offering.

Second Amending Gold Prepay Agreement

On April 24, 2024, the Company entered into a second amending agreement with Orion to amend the terms of the A&R Gold Prepay Agreement (the “Second A&R Gold Prepay Agreement). In accordance with the terms of the Second A&R Gold Prepay Agreement, Orion agreed to extend the deadline for the outstanding deliveries previously required to be made on or before April 15, 2024 under the A&R Gold Prepay Agreement until May 10, 2024.

In addition, if the Company meets the Gold Option Criteria (as defined below) it may elect to defer the deadline to deliver any of its quarterly gold delivery obligations for the 2024 calendar year (each instance, a “Gold Deferral”) by delivering to Orion, on or before September 30, 2025, the adjusted quarterly gold quantities (multiplied by 1.15 for gold deliveries made prior to June 30, 2025 and 1.19 for gold deliveries made thereafter). In order for the Company to implement a Gold Deferral, (i) it must be in compliance with the use of proceeds section as described in the Prospectus (the “Budget”) and (ii) after assuming the delivery of the applicable quarterly gold quantity on the applicable unextended quarterly deadline, the Company would not have sufficient funds to remain in compliance with the Budget (collectively, the “Gold Option Criteria”). In addition, should the Company complete an equity offering after the date of the Second A&R Gold Prepay Agreement until September 30, 2025 (other than the Offering pursuant to the Prospectus), the Company will be required to deliver such number of gold ounces to Orion as is equal to 34% of the net proceeds of such offering, divided by the applicable gold price at such time, by way of a prepayment of the Company’s quarterly deliveries for the 2024 calendar year; provided that at such time a notice of Gold Deferral has been delivered in accordance with the Gold Prepay Amendment.

The Second A&R Gold Prepay Agreement is subject to standard conditions and covenants, including minimum cash balance and certain reporting requirements. Obligations under the Second A&R Gold Prepay Agreement continue to be senior secured obligations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Ruby Hill Mining Company, LLC and Osgood Mining Company, LLC and secured against the Ruby Hill project in Eureka County, Nevada and the Granite Creek project in Humboldt County, Nevada. In connection with the Second A&R Gold Prepay Agreement the Company paid an amendment fee of $0.5 million to Orion.

Amendment to Silver Purchase Agreement

On April 24, 2024, the Company entered into an amending agreement with Orion (the “Amended Silver Purchase Agreement”) to amend the terms of its Silver Purchase Agreement. In accordance with the terms of the Amended Silver Purchase Agreement, Orion agreed to extend the deadline for the outstanding deliveries required to be made on or before April 15, 2024 under the Amended Silver Purchase Agreement until May 10, 2024.

If the Company meets the Stream Option Criteria (as defined below) it may elect to defer the requirements to deliver its annual minimum delivery amount for 2024 (a “Stream Deferral”) by delivering to Orion, on or before September 30, 2025, the adjusted annual minimum delivery amount (multiplied by 1.07 for silver deliveries made prior to June 30, 2025 and 1.11 for silver deliveries made thereafter). In order for the Company to implement a Stream Deferral, (i) it must be in compliance with the Budget and (ii) after assuming the delivery of the applicable minimum delivery amount in respect of 2024 by January 15, 2025, the Company would not have sufficient funds to remain in compliance with the Budget (collectively, the “Stream Option Criteria”). In addition, should the Company complete an equity offering on or after January 1, 2025 until September 30, 2025, the Company will be required to deliver such number of ounces of refined silver to Orion as is equal to 16% of the net proceeds of such offering, divided by the applicable silver market price at such time; provided that at such time a notice of Stream Deferral has been delivered in accordance with the Amended Silver Purchase Agreement.

The Amended Silver Purchase Agreement is subject to standard conditions and covenants, including minimum cash balance and certain reporting requirements. Obligations under the Amended Silver Purchase Agreement continue to be senior secured obligations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Ruby Hill Mining Company, LLC and Osgood Mining Company, LLC and secured against the Ruby Hill project in Eureka County, Nevada and the Granite Creek project in Humboldt County, Nevada. In connection with the Amended Silver Purchase Agreement the Company paid an amendment fee of $0.25 million to Orion.
