Exploits Discovery Corp. (CSE: NFLD) (OTCQB: NFLDF) (FSE: 634) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive property purchase agreement dated September 7, 2025 with New Found Gold Corp. providing for the sale of a 100% interest in all of its mineral claims in central Newfoundland.

Jeff Swinoga, President & CEO of Exploits, stated: “This is an excellent transaction for our shareholders, providing up to approximately $8.8 million of value along with a 1% NSR. It provides immediate value, ongoing exposure to NFG’s discovery success, and adds royalty upside, allowing us accelerate development on our new growth platform of growing gold ounces in Ontario and Québec. With Hawkins in Ontario and Fenton, Wilson, and Benoist in Québec, we now control four cornerstone projects hosting a combined historical gold resource estimate of 680,000 ounces in Canada’s leading gold belts. Each has historical mineral resource estimates, strong infrastructure, and district-scale growth potential. We are excited to drive the next phase of value creation by growing resources and advancing exploration.”

Transaction Summary

Under the Purchase Agreement, on the closing date of the Transaction, NFG has agreed to pay an aggregate purchase price for all of Exploits’ Newfoundland mineral claims (representing 1,984 mineral claims (49,600 ha)) excluding certain mineral claims in dispute before the Supreme Court of Newfoundland and Labrador (representing 360 mineral claims (9,000 ha)), comprised of:

• C$7,000,000 of common shares of NFG, being 2,821,556 NFG Shares valued on the basis of the 20-day volume weighted average trading price of the NFG Shares as of the date of the Purchase Agreement; and

• the grant of a 1.0% net smelter returns royalty on the Bullseye and Gazeebow (North and South) claims and Exploits’ claim block west of Keats West.

In addition, NFG would pay additional contingent consideration to Exploits comprised of C$1,800,000 of NFG Shares, being 725,543 NFG Shares valued on the basis of the 20-day volume weighted average trading price of the NFG Shares as of the date of the Purchase Agreement, in respect of the disputed claims in the event of a final positive legal determination in favour of Exploits.

The NFG Shares will be subject to a four month and one day resale restriction from the date of closing of the Transaction. The Royalty will contain a right and option in favour of NFG for three years to repurchase 0.5% of the Royalty for a price equal to CDN$750,000.

The Transaction requires the approval of 66.67% of the votes cast by holders of common shares of Exploits at a shareholder meeting to be called by Exploits pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and the rules of the Canadian Securities Exchange. In addition, the Transaction is subject to certain other customary closing conditions, including the approvals of the TSX Venture Exchange, the NYSE American and the CSE. It is anticipated that the closing of the Transaction will occur in the fourth quarter of 2025.

The Board of Directors of Exploits obtained a fairness opinion from Evans & Evans, Inc. to the effect that, subject to the assumptions, qualifications and limitations contained therein, the consideration to be received by Exploits under the Purchase Agreement is fair, from a financial point of view, to Exploits. The Board of Directors has unanimously determined that the Transaction is in the best interests of Exploits and recommends that Exploits shareholders vote in favour of the Transaction. Directors, officers and certain shareholders of Exploits, such as Eric Sprott, owning approximately 15.2% of Exploits’ common shares, have entered into voting and support agreements pursuant to which they have agreed to vote all the Exploits shares they own, or control, in favour of the Transaction.

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Exploits is subject to customary non-solicitation covenants and has the benefit of customary fiduciary-out provisions. In the event a superior proposal is approved by Exploits, NFG has a five-business-day right to match such proposal, and under certain circumstances where Exploits’ board of directors changes its recommendation or the Purchase Agreement is terminated to accept a superior proposal, Exploits has agreed to pay a termination fee of CDN$250,000 to NFG.

New Growth Platform in Ontario & Québec

Following completion of the Transaction, Exploits will focus entirely on advancing its four cornerstone gold projects in Ontario and Québec, which together host approximately 680,000 ounces of historical gold resource estimates with significant expansion potential. This estimate is considered to be a “historical estimate” under National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects and is not considered by Exploits to be current.
