Revival Gold Inc. (TSX-V: RVG, OTCQX: RVLGF)
(“Revival Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the
restructuring and extension of the Meridian Beartrack Co.
(“Meridian”) earn-in and related stock purchase agreement
(together, the “Agreement”) under which the Company intends to
acquire Meridian, a subsidiary of Pan American Silver Corp. (“Pan
American”) and the owner of the Beartrack property and associated
infrastructure. The Beartrack property (“Beartrack”) encompasses
approximately half the mineral claim interests that make up Revival
Gold’s 6,300-hectare Beartrack-Arnett gold project in Idaho, U.S.A.
(“Beartrack-Arnett”).
The restructuring and extension of the terms of
the Agreement (the “Amendment”, dated August 30th, 2024) eliminates
the obligation for Revival Gold to pay a subsidiary of Pan American
the greater of US$6 per ounce of gold in mineral resource or US$15
per ounce of gold in mineral reserve on the third anniversary of
the closing of the Agreement. In addition, the Amendment provides
for a three-year extension to the earn-in; thereby deferring the
requirement for Revival Gold to provide site bonding until October
2027. Under the Agreement, Pan American maintains site bonding
surety for Beartrack (current face value of US$10.2 million) and
Revival Gold reimburses Pan American for all site-related operating
and maintenance costs (estimated to be about US$850,000 per year
including surety).
In consideration for the Amendment, Revival Gold
has agreed that upon closing of the Agreement, Meridian will grant
a subsidiary of Pan American a 0.3% net smelter return royalty on
Beartrack, which is in addition to the 1.5% net smelter return
royalty that is already to be granted at closing. Accordingly, upon
closing of the Agreement, Meridian will grant Pan American’s
subsidiary a 1.8% net smelter return royalty on Beartrack, of
which, 0.5% will be extinguished upon payments totaling US$2
million.
“Today’s announced restructuring improves the
alignment of Revival Gold and Pan American’s respective interests
in Beartrack and provides Revival Gold with additional time to
advance permitting preparations and exploration at
Beartrack-Arnett”, remarked Hugh Agro, President & CEO.
“Revival Gold is focused on advancing Beartrack-Arnett in a
responsible, efficient and expeditious manner and can now do so
without having the burden of a large payment obligation in advance
of production”, Agro added.

comprised of historical facts. Forward-looking statements include
estimates and statements that describe the Company’s future plans,

or management expects a stated condition or result to occur.
Forward-looking statements may be identified by such terms as
“believes”, “anticipates”, “expects”, “estimates”, “may”, “could”,
“would”, “will”, or “plan”. Since forward-looking statements are
based on assumptions and address future events and conditions, by
their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties.
Although these statements are based on information currently
available to the Company, the Company provides no assurance that
actual results will meet management’s expectations. Risks,
uncertainties, and other factors involved with forward-looking
statements could cause actual events, results, performance,
prospects, and opportunities to differ materially from those
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements in this document
include, but are not limited to, the Company’s plan to acquire
Meridian pursuant to the Agreement, the Amendment allowing the
Company to focus on developing Beartrack-Arnett in a responsible,
efficient and expeditious manner without the burden of a large
payment obligation in advance of production, the Company’s
objectives, goals and future plans, and statements of intent, the
implications of exploration results, mineral resource/reserve
estimates and exploration and mine development plans. Factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from such
forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to failure
to identify mineral resources, failure to convert estimated mineral
resources to reserves, the inability to maintain the modelling and
assumptions upon which the interpretation of results are based
after further testing, the inability to complete a feasibility
study which recommends a production decision, the preliminary
nature of metallurgical test results, delays in obtaining or
failures to obtain required governmental, environmental or other
project approvals, changes in regulatory requirements, political
and social risks, uncertainties relating to the availability and
costs of financing needed in the future, uncertainties or
challenges related to mineral title in the Company’s projects,
changes in equity markets, inflation, changes in exchange rates,
fluctuations in commodity and in particular gold prices, delays in
the development of projects, capital, operating and reclamation
costs varying significantly from estimates, the continued
availability of capital, accidents and labour disputes, and the
other risks involved in the mineral exploration and development
industry, an inability to raise additional funding, the manner the
Company uses its cash or the proceeds of an offering of the
Company’s securities, an inability to predict and counteract the
effects of COVID-19 on the business of the Company, including but
not limited to the effects of COVID-19 on the price of commodities,
capital market conditions, restriction on labour and international
travel and supply chains, future climatic conditions, the discovery
of new, large, low-cost mineral deposits, the general level of
global economic activity, disasters or environmental or climatic
events which affect the infrastructure on which the project is
dependent, and those risks set out in the Company’s public
documents filed on SEDAR+. Although the Company believes that the
assumptions and factors used in preparing the forward-looking
statements in this news release are reasonable, undue reliance
should not be placed on such information, which only applies as of
the date of this news release, and no assurance can be given that
such events will occur in the disclosed time frames or at all.
Specific reference is made to the most recent Annual Information
Form filed on SEDAR+ for a more detailed discussion of some of the

may affect the Company’s ability to achieve the expectations set
