SSR MINING RECEIVES CONDITIONAL LISTING APPROVAL ON THE ASX IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPOSED MERGER WITH ALACER GOLD

VANCOUVER, BC & DENVER, CO – SSR Mining Inc. (NASDAQ: SSRM) (TSX: SSRM) (“SSR Mining”) and Alacer Gold Corp. (TSX: ASR) (ASX: AQG) (“Alacer”) are pleased to announce that, in connection with their previously announced at-market merger of equals (the “Transaction”), the Australian Securities Exchange (the “ASX”) has granted SSR Mining conditional approval to be admitted to the official list of the ASX and SSR Mining CHESS Depositary Interests (CDIs) to be officially quoted on the ASX. The conditional approval is subject to customary conditions, including requisite approvals of the shareholders of SSR Mining and Alacer at their respective special meetings of shareholders to be held on July 10, 2020 and final court approval.

Details of the settlement timetable for the Alacer CDIs are in the process of being confirmed with ASX Settlement. It is anticipated that after remaining shareholder, court and regulatory approvals for the Transaction are obtained and closing of the Transaction is ready to be initiated, trading in Alacer CDIs will go into suspension for a period of approximately two trading days while closing of the Arrangement occurs. During that time, the ability to convert Alacer CDIs into the underlying common shares of Alacer, and vice versa, may be restricted.

Following the closing of the Arrangement, it is expected that the new SSR Mining CDIs will initially trade on the ASX on a deferred settlement basis for approximately four to five trading days, following which SSR Mining CDIs will be issued and trading on a normal settlement basis. Further details with respect to the satisfaction of remaining key conditions for the Transaction and an anticipated closing date will be provided at the appropriate time. Holding statements (to issuer sponsored holders) and confirmation advices (to CHESS holders) are expected to be dispatched on the issuance date of the SSR Mining CDIs.

This information in this news release related to the timing of Australian settlement of Alacer CDIs and issuance of SSR Mining CDIs supplements and updates the information in respect thereof contained in the joint management information circular of SSR Mining and Alacer dated June 2, 2020.

Except for statements of historical fact relating to Alacer or SSR Mining, certain statements contained in this press release constitute forward-looking information, future oriented financial information, or financial outlooks (collectively “forward-looking information”) within the meaning of Canadian securities laws. Forward-looking information may be contained in this document and other public filings of Alacer or SSR Mining. Forward-looking information relates to statements concerning Alacer’s or SSR Mining’s outlook, anticipated events or results, statements as to Alacer and SSR Mining management expectations with respect to the Transaction and the combined company and in some cases, can be identified by terminology such as “may”, “will”, “could”, “should”, “expect”, “plan”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “intend”, “estimate”, “projects”, “predict”, “potential”, “continue” or other similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts.

This press release also contains forward-looking statements regarding the anticipated completion of the Transaction and timing thereof, as well as the listing of SSR Mining CDIs and settlement and trading of Alacer CDIs. Forward-looking statements in this press release are based on certain key expectations and assumptions made by Alacer and SSR Mining, including expectations and assumptions concerning the receipt, in a timely manner, of regulatory and stock exchange approvals in respect of the Transaction. Although Alacer and SSR Mining believe that the expectations and assumptions on which such forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements because Alacer and SSR Mining can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or expectations expressed in this press release. The key risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to governmental and regulatory requirements and actions by governmental authorities, including changes in government policy, government ownership requirements, changes in environmental, tax and other laws or regulations and the interpretation thereof; developments with respect to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the duration, severity and scope of the pandemic and potential impacts on mining operations; and other risk factors detailed from time to time in Alacer and SSR Mining reports filed with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities. There are also risks that are inherent in the nature of the Transaction, including failure to obtain any required regulatory and other approvals (or to do so in a timely manner). The anticipated timeline for completion of the Transaction may change for a number of reasons, including the inability to secure necessary regulatory, stock exchange or other approvals in the time assumed, developments with respect to the COVID-19 pandemic or the need for additional time to satisfy the conditions to the completion of the Transaction. As a result of the foregoing, readers should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this press release concerning the timing of the Transaction.
