Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited - Tabular amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

  1. Background and basis of preparation:

Ivanhoe Electric Inc. (“Ivanhoe Electric” or “the Company”) is a US domiciled company that combines advanced mineral exploration technologies with electric metals exploration projects predominantly located in the United States. The Company’s mineral exploration efforts focus on copper as well as other metals including nickel, vanadium, cobalt, platinum group elements, gold and silver. The Company’s portfolio of electric metals exploration projects include the Santa Cruz Copper Project in Arizona and the Tintic Copper-Gold Project in Utah, as well as other exploration projects in the United States,.

In addition to mineral projects in the United States, the Company also holds direct and indirect ownership interests, and in some cases controlling financial interests, in other non-U.S. mineral projects, and in proprietary mineral exploration and minerals-based technologies.

The Company conducts the following business activities through certain subsidiaries:

•VRB Energy Inc. (“VRB”), develops, manufactures and installs vanadium flow batteries for grid-scale energy storage. Ivanhoe Electric had an ownership interest in VRB of 90.0% as at June 30, 2023 (December 31, 2022 — 90.0%).

•Computational Geosciences Inc. (“CGI”), provides data analytics, geophysical modeling, software licensing and artificial intelligence services for the mineral, oil & gas and water exploration industries. Ivanhoe Electric had an ownership interest in CGI of 94.3% as at June 30, 2023 (December 31, 2022 — 94.3%).

•Cordoba Minerals Corp. (“Cordoba”) holds the San Matias copper-gold-silver project in northern Colombia. Ivanhoe Electric had an ownership interest in Cordoba of 63.2% as at June 30, 2023 (December 31, 2022 — 63.3%).

•Kaizen Discovery Inc. (“Kaizen”) holds the Pinaya copper-gold exploration project in Peru. Ivanhoe Electric had an ownership interest in Kaizen of 82.5% as at June 30, 2023 (December 31, 2022 — 82.7%).

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Therefore, this information should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated and combined carve-out financial statements and notes contained on its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The information furnished herein reflects all normal recurring entries, that are in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods reported. Operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023.

Reverse stock split:

In June 2022, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding common stock at a ratio of 3-for-1 (the “Reverse Stock Split”) effective as of June 16, 2022. The number of authorized shares and the par value of the common stock were not adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. For periods before June 16, 2022, all references to common stock, options to purchase common stock, per share data, and related information contained in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which presumes the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

References to “$” refer to United States dollars and “Cdn$” to Canadian dollars.

  1. Significant accounting policies:

The Company discloses in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, those accounting policies that it considers significant in determining its results of operations and financial position. There

Table of Contents

IVANHOE ELECTRIC INC.

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited - Tabular amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

have been no material changes to, or in the application of, the accounting policies previously identified and described in the Company’s consolidated and combined carve-out financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted:

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06 Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Topic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Topic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The update is to address issues identified as a result of the complexity associated with applying generally accepted accounting principles for certain financial instruments with both liability and equity characteristics. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2020-06 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and is currently evaluating the expected impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The update is to clarify the guidance in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, when measuring the fair value of an equity security subject to contractual restrictions that prohibit the sale of an equity security. The update clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The Company intends to adopt ASU 2022-03 on January 1, 2024 and is currently evaluating the expected impact on the consolidated financial statements.

  1. Use of estimates:

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied to the consolidated and combined carve-out financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

  1. Cash and cash equivalents:

Of the total cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $13.1 million and $20.7 million, respectively, was not available for the general corporate purposes of the Company as it was held by non-wholly-owned subsidiaries.

At June 30, 2023, the Company does not have any cash equivalents in the form of redeemable short-term investments (December 31, 2022 - $2.3 million).

  1. Investments subject to significant influence:

The Company’s principal investment subject to significant influence is Sama Resources Inc. (“Sama”). Others include its investments in Sama Nickel Corporation (“SNC”) and Go2Lithium Inc. ("Go2Lithium").

On May 10, 2023, Ivanhoe Electric signed a binding purchase and sale agreement (“PSA”) for the acquisition of land at its Santa Cruz Project in Arizona. The acquisition closed on May 23, 2023 and totals 5,975 acres of surface title and associated water rights.

The total purchase price was $116.9 million, of which the Company has paid a total of $34.3 million to the seller as of closing, which included $5.1 million of previously paid deposits. The Company has also issued a secured promissory note to the seller in the amount of $82.6 million. The promissory note includes an annual interest rate of prime plus 1% and is to be paid in installments, as follows:

•$34.3 million, plus accrued interest, payable on or before November 23, 2023;

•four equal principal payments of $12.1 million on the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the November 23, 2023 payment, plus applicable accrued interest.

The Company reports land and water rights associated with its exploration projects in exploration properties. Directly attributable acquisition costs of $2.2 million were capitalized on acquisition.

Balance at December 31, 2022 $ 25,918

On July 8, 2021, VRB issued a convertible bond for gross proceeds of $24.0 million. The bond has a five-year term and interest accrues at a rate of 8% per annum.

Prior to the maturity date, the convertible bond is automatically converted into equity of VRB upon an equity financing or sale event, at a price per share equal to the lower of:

•the transaction price of the equity financing or sale event; and

•the valuation cap price of $158.0 million divided by the total shares outstanding at the time of the event.

If no equity financing or sale event occurs, VRB must repay the outstanding principal and interest on maturity.

(Unaudited - Tabular amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

The Company has accounted for the convertible bond, including its embedded features, as a debt instrument accounted at amortized cost, as it was determined the embedded features are not required to be bifurcated.

Directly attributable transaction costs of $1.1 million were recorded against the carrying value of the debt and are amortized using the effective interest method at a rate of 9.1%.

(i) Stock options:

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company granted stock options to certain new management of the Company. The options have a seven-year term and comprise three equal tranches vesting in one-third annual increments beginning one year from the grant date. The stock options were granted at an exercise price equal to the closing stock price on the grant date.

The fair value of each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. Expected volatility was calculated based on the historical volatility of a group of peer companies’ common stock and a group of relevant stock market indices over the expected option life. Management exercised judgment in determining the expected life of the options and considered factors such as the contractual term of the options, the vesting schedule and expected volatility. The risk-free interest rate is based on Federal Reserve rates in effect for bonds with maturity dates equal to the expected term of the option.

Information related to stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2023 is presented below.

(“Exiro”) which gives the Company the right to earn an 80% interest in the White Hill Project located in the Gillis Range, Mineral County, Nevada, by incurring $10.0 million of expenditures and making payments to Exiro totaling $5.0 million ($3.6 million in cash and $1.4 million in our common stock) within six years of signing the agreement.

  1. Non-controlling interests investment in subsidiary:

On May 8, 2023, Cordoba closed the $100 million strategic arrangement with JCHX Mining Management Co., Ltd (“JCHX") to advance the Alacran Project in Colombia. Upon closing, JCHX received a 50% ownership interest in CMH Colombia S.A.S. (“CMH”), a Colombian company that owns 100% of the Alacran Project and is the joint venture vehicle for Cordoba and JCHX in this strategic project level partnership.

For its 50% interest, JCHX will pay the $100 million purchase price in three installments. As of the closing of the transaction, $40 million has been received as a first installment and partial payment for shares issued. A second installment of $40 million is receivable in cash upon the board of directors of Cordoba approving the Feasibility Study of the Alacran Project and the filing of the Environmental Impact Assessment (“EIA”) to the relevant Colombian Government authority, but in no event shall such second installment be paid later than the second anniversary of the closing of the transaction. A third and final installment of $20 million is receivable in cash upon the approval of the

Table of Contents

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited - Tabular amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

EIA, which must be within two years of the transaction’s closing date. Should the EIA not be approved by the second anniversary of the closing date, JCHX will have the option to elect not to complete this final installment.

As partial consideration for the first installment, the outstanding balance of principal and interest (totaling $10.5 million) owing under Cordoba’s bridge loan to JCHX was applied as a payment in kind and the bridge loan was extinguished.

The second installment is secured by a pledge and call option over 20% of the shares of CMH held by JCHX. In the event JCHX pays the second installment but does not pay the third installment, JCHX’s and Cordoba’s ownership of CMH shares will be adjusted to 40% and 60%, respectively.

The Company currently retains control over the relevant activities of CMH therefore continues to consolidate the entity.

The Company measures its non-controlling interest and loss attributable to non-controlling shareholders on the basis of a hypothetical liquidation at book value. Upon closing, the Company recorded the difference between the consideration received and the carrying value of the interest given up of $18.0 million in additional paid in capital.

CMH’s loss is attributable to Ivanhoe Electric’s shareholders in the Company’s basic and diluted loss per share based on the extent to which the parties are eligible to participate in dividends, if any, during the period.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) and with our audited consolidated and combined carve-out financial statements and the related notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 included in Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 14, 2023 (the “2022 Form 10-K”).

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the "Exchange Act"), that involve risks and uncertainties, including statements based on our current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about future events, our business, our financial condition, results of operations and prospects, our industry and the regulatory environment in which we operate. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical facts may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Those statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to: estimated calculations of mineral reserves and resources at our properties including changes in those estimated calculations, anticipated results and timing of exploration activities, timing of studies for advancing or developing our properties, plans and objectives, industry trends, our requirements for additional capital, treatment under applicable government regimes for permitting or attaining approvals, government regulation, environmental risks, title disputes or claims, synergies of potential future acquisitions, and our anticipated uses of the net proceeds from our initial public offering or other offerings of our securities. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “might,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “achieve,” “budget,” “scheduled,” “forecasts,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue,” the negative of these terms and other comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements may include projections of our future financial performance, our anticipated growth strategies and anticipated trends in our industry. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions concerning future events that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual future events or results may differ materially from these statements. We believe that the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include the following: our mineral projects are all at the exploration stage and are subject to the significant risks and uncertainties associated with mineral exploration; we have no mineral reserves, other than at the San Matias project; we have a limited operating history on which to base an evaluation of our business and prospects; we depend on our material projects for our future operations; our mineral resource calculations at the Santa Cruz Project are only estimates; actual capital costs, operating costs, production and economic returns at any future mine may differ significantly from those we have anticipated; the title to some of the mineral properties may be uncertain or defective; our business is subject to changes in the prices of copper, gold, silver, nickel, cobalt, vanadium and platinum group metals; we have claims and legal proceedings against one of our subsidiaries; our business is subject to significant risk and hazards associated with future mining operations; we may fail to identify attractive acquisition candidates or joint ventures with strategic partners or be unable to successfully integrate acquired mineral properties; we may fail to successfully manage joint ventures and are reliant on our joint venture partners to comply with their obligations; our business is extensively regulated by the United States and foreign governments as well as local governments; the requirements that we obtain, maintain and renew environmental, construction and mining permits are often a costly and time-consuming process; our non-U.S. operations are subject to additional political, economic and other uncertainties not generally associated with domestic operations; our activities may be hindered, delayed or have to cease as a result of climate change effects, including increased and excessive heating and the potential for forest fires at many of our properties; and our operations may be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, including impacts to the availability of our workforce, government orders that may require temporary suspension of operations, and the global economy.

You should carefully consider these risks, as well as the additional risks described in other documents we file with the SEC. We also operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in, or implied by, any forward-looking statements.

These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the risks described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our 2022 Form 10-K. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, or cautionary statements, are disclosed under “Risk Factors” in the 2022 Form 10-K. These risks

and uncertainties, as well as other risks of which we are not aware or which we currently do not believe to be material, may cause our actual future results to be materially different than those expressed in our forward-looking statements. We caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We do not undertake any obligation to make any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law.

Business Overview

We are a United States domiciled company that combines advanced mineral exploration technologies with electric metals exploration projects predominantly located in the United States. We use our accurate and powerful Typhoon™ geophysical surveying system, together with advanced data analytics provided by our subsidiary, Computational Geosciences Inc. (“CGI”), to accelerate and de-risk the mineral exploration process as we seek to discover new deposits of critical metals that may otherwise be undetectable by traditional exploration technologies. We believe the United States is significantly underexplored and has the potential to yield major new discoveries of critical metals. Our mineral exploration efforts focus on copper as well as other metals including nickel, vanadium, cobalt, platinum group elements, gold and silver. Through the advancement of our portfolio of electric metals exploration projects, headlined by the Santa Cruz Copper Project in Arizona and the Tintic Copper-Gold Project in Utah, as well as other exploration projects in the United States, we intend to support United States supply chain independence by finding and delivering the critical metals necessary for the electrification of the economy.

We also operate a 50/50 joint venture with Saudi Arabian Mining Company Ma’aden to explore for minerals on ~48,500 km2 of underexplored Arabian Shield in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Finally, in addition to our mineral projects, we also own a controlling interest in VRB Energy Inc. ("VRB") which is primarily engaged in the design, manufacture, installation, and operation of vanadium redux flow energy storage systems.

At our Santa Cruz Copper Project in Arizona, we are evaluating the potential for a high-grade modern underground copper mining operation. We are advancing economic studies for an underground copper mining operation with a focus on minimizing the surface footprint of the mine while at the same time incorporating leading technologies to improve efficiencies and costs. We are designing a technologically advanced mine that we expect to result in low carbon dioxide emissions per pound of copper produced and be a leading example of responsibly produced domestic copper. Key considerations that will influence our decision making include, but are not limited to, using clean and renewable energy in our future mining operations, optimizing and minimizing our water utilization, minimizing our environmental footprint, ensuring workforce diversity and hiring from local communities, health, safety and environmental performance, support of local cultural heritage and biodiversity protection.

"Our” mineral projects refers to our interests in such projects which may be a direct ownership interest in mineral titles (including through subsidiary entities), a right to acquire mineral titles through an earn-in or option agreement, or, in the case of our investments in publicly listed companies in Canada, through our ownership of the equity of those companies that have an interest in such mineral project

Our shares are listed on the NYSE American and the TSX under the ticker symbol “IE”.

Reverse Stock Split

On June 16, 2022, we effected a reverse stock split of our outstanding common stock at a ratio of 3-for-1 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The number of authorized shares and the par value of the common stock were not adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. All references to common stock, options to purchase common stock, per share data and related information have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split for all periods presented.

Business Developments in the Quarter

On May 15, 2023, we signed a Common Stock Subscription Agreement ("the Subscription Agreement") with Saudi Arabian Mining Company Ma’aden (“Ma’aden”) pursuant to the Heads of Terms previously disclosed in the Company’s Form 8-K filed on January 11, 2023. On July 6, 2023, the Company completed the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreement (the “Ma’aden Transactions”) and entered into an Investor Rights Agreement, a Shareholders’ Agreement and the other instruments contemplated thereby.

The Ma'aden Transactions include the establishment of a 50/50 exploration joint venture between Ma’aden and Ivanhoe Electric to explore for minerals on ~48,500 km2 of underexplored Arabian Shield in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and a strategic investment by Ma'aden in Ivanhoe Electric common stock. On July 6, 2023, we issued to Ma’aden an aggregate of 10,269,604 shares of common stock of the Company, constituting 9.9% of the total outstanding number of

shares of common stock immediately following closing of the Ma'aden Transactions, for gross proceeds of approximately $127.1 million, representing an aggregate purchase price of $12.38 per share. Of the $127.1 million total proceeds from the private placement, $66.0 million has been contributed to the joint venture to fund its exploration activities, including the purchase of three new-generation TyphoonTM machines from I-Pulse Inc. The remaining $61.1 million has been retained by Ivanhoe Electric to advance our portfolio of US mineral projects, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

On May 23, 2023, we completed the acquisition of 5,975 acres of surface title and associated water rights at the Santa Cruz Project for aggregate consideration of $116.86 million to be paid in installments over a 4.5-year period. On May 23, 2023, we paid the vendor $34.3 million of the purchase price (inclusive of a previously paid $0.1 million exclusivity payment and a $5.0 million earnest money escrow deposit upon signing the Agreement) and issued a secured promissory note to the vendor in the principal amount of $82.6 million with an interest rate of prime plus 1%. We also hold the option to acquire all the mineral titles contiguous with the acquired surface lands. Those mineral rights will be formally acquired upon the completion of scheduled option payments in August 2024. At that time, we will have a unified land and mineral package encompassing the entire Santa Cruz Project.

On May 8, 2023, our subsidiary, Cordoba Mineral Corp. ("Cordoba"), announced that it and JCHX Mining Management Co., Ltd. ("JCHX") had satisfied all necessary conditions to close the $100 million strategic arrangement for the joint-development of Cordoba's Alacran Project in Colombia. As a result of the closing, JCHX has funded the initial installment of $40 million towards its 50% ownership interest in CMH, a company existing under the laws of Colombia, which owns 100% of the Alacran Project and is the joint venture vehicle for Cordoba and JCHX in this strategic project level partnership. For its 50% interest, JCHX will pay the $100 million purchase price in three installments. At the closing of the transaction, $40 million was paid as a first installment. A second installment of $40 million is payable in cash upon the board of directors of Cordoba approving the feasibility study of the Alacran Project, and the filing of the Environmental Impact Assessment (“EIA”) to the relevant Colombian Government authority, but in no event shall such second installment be paid later than the second anniversary of the closing of the transaction. A third and final installment of $20 million is payable in cash once the approval of the EIA is obtained, which must be within two years of the transaction’s closing date. Should the EIA not be approved by the second anniversary of the closing date, JCHX will have the option to elect not to complete this final installment, which will result in JCHX being diluted to 40% and Cordoba increasing to a majority 60% shareholding in CMH.

On July 10, 2023, we filed an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 to permits us to publicly offer and sell securities from time to time, including common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, subscription rights and units. We may offer and sell securities under the Form S-3 from time to time.

Segments

We account for our business in three business segments – (i) critical metals, (ii) data processing and software licensing services and (iii) energy storage systems.

Significant Components of Results of Operations

Revenue, Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

We generate revenue from our technology businesses CGI and VRB, which are included in the data processing and software licensing business segment and the energy storage systems business segment, respectively.

We have not generated any revenue from our mining projects because they are in the exploration stage. We do not expect to generate any revenue from our mining projects for the foreseeable future.

Exploration Expenses

Exploration expenses include topographical, geological, geochemical and geophysical studies, exploratory drilling, trenching, sampling and activities in relation to identifying a mineral resource and then evaluating the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting the mineral resource, as well as value-added taxes in relation to these direct exploration and evaluation costs incurred in foreign jurisdictions where recoverability of those taxes is uncertain. Exploration expenses also include salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation expenses of the employees performing these activities.

Exploration expenses also include payments under earn-in and option agreements where the option right is with respect to ownership interests in legal entities owning the underlying mineral project in the exploration project phase. Through our earn-in and option agreements, we have the right (and in some cases, the obligation) to fund and conduct

exploration on the underlying mineral project prior to determining whether to acquire a minority or majority ownership interest through further funding the costs of such exploration and, in some cases, through direct payments to the owners of the project. In the event we cease making expenditures on an exploration mineral project or fail to incur the agreed level of exploration expenditures, we will not obtain an ownership right beyond any which may have been acquired as of the date of termination.

Included in exploration expenses are exploration costs that we incur in relation to generating new projects. These activities may or may not proceed to earn-in agreements depending on our evaluation. These are categorized as “Generative exploration and other”.

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses consist of salaries and benefits, stock-based compensation, professional and consultant fees, insurance and other general administration costs. Our general and administrative expenses have increased significantly now that we are operating as a public company and have added to our management team. In particular, we are incurring increased general and administrative expenses costs in 2023 compared to 2022 for salaries, non-cash stock-based compensation, compliance related costs and directors’ and officers’ insurance expense.

Research and Development Expenses

Expenditures on research and development activities are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. We expect research and development expenses to increase as our technology-based businesses continue to grow.

Since 2018, the majority of our research and development expenses came from CGI’s data processing business, which includes amortization expenses related to its artificial intelligence intellectual property acquired in 2018. VRB also conducts research and development activities to continue to advance its energy storage system technology.

We also have research and development expenses that we incur in relation to TyphoonTM. In 2023, we have commenced design and development activities for our next generation of TyphoonTM equipment.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022

For the three months ended June 30, 2023 we recorded a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $38.3 million ($0.41 per share), compared to $54.4 million ($0.85 per share) for the three months ended June 30, 2022, which was a decrease of $16.1 million. A significant contributor to this decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was that the three months ended June 30, 2022 included an amount of $16.1 million in relation to a non-cash loss on the revaluation of the convertible notes that were automatically converted into shares of our common stock upon the completion of the IPO on June 30, 2022 and there was no similar expense in 2023. This decrease was offset by an increase of $8.7 million in exploration expenditures and an increase of $8.0 million in general and administrative expenses compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Exploration expenses were $32.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $8.7 million from $23.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Exploration expenses consisted of the following:

Total $ 32,551 $ 23,863

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, exploration expenditures largely focused on activities at:

•the Santa Cruz Project where $15.0 million of exploration expenditure was incurred in the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $14.8 million incurred in the three months ended June 30, 2022. Activities during the three months ended June 30, 2023 at Santa Cruz were focused on a program of exploration and infill resource, geotechnical, hydrological and metallurgical drilling, advancing technical studies, and continued work on the Initial Assessment Study for the Santa Cruz Copper Project which we plan to complete by the end of the third quarter of 2023.

•Cordoba's San Matias Project where $10.1 million of exploration expenditure was incurred by Cordoba for the three months ended June 30, 2023 focused on continuing work on the feasibility study on the Alacran deposit. Activities during the three months ended June 30, 2023 included ongoing infill geotechnical, metallurgical, hydrological and infill drilling to advance the feasibility study. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, a total of 12,739.3 meters of infill diamond drilling was completed. The final program total was 44,889.75 meters in 233 diamond drill holes completed; and

•the Tintic Project where $2.0 million of exploration expenditure was incurred in the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $0.4 million incurred in the three months ended June 30, 2022. Activities during the three months ended June 30, 2023 at Tintic included commencing a two drill rig exploration program that is testing new areas of the historic Main Tintic Mining District.

General and administrative expenses were $12.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $8.0 million from $4.7 million in three months ended June 30, 2022. Several items contributed to the increase, including:

•a $4.2 million increase in stock-based compensation expense from $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $4.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was due to the impact of the additional non-cash stock-based compensation expense in relation to the Ivanhoe Electric stock option and RSU grants that occurred in November 2022, January 2023 and February 2023;

•a $1.3 million increase in directors and officers insurance expenses from $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 to $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was due to the three months ended June 30, 2023 including an entire quarter of director and officers insurance expense compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 as we entered into the insurance policy in late June 2022 immediately before our IPO; and

•a $0.8 million increase in salary and wages compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 due to adding more people to our management and administrative teams following our IPO.

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $1.3 million, an increase of $0.2 million from the three months ended June 30, 2022.

VRB's revenue represented 96.8% of our revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2023 ($1.3 million) and 0.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 ($0.0 million). During the second quarter of 2023, VRB delivered, installed and commissioned a 1MW/2MWh energy storage system to a customer in China, which resulted in $1.3 million of revenue being recognized.

CGI’s software licensing and data processing services to the mining and oil and gas industries represented 3.2% of our revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2023 ($0.0 million) and 100.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 ($0.2 million). Revenue decreased at CGI as a result of less data processing projects occurring during the second quarter of 2023. CGI continues to focus on generating new business.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $2.1 million, an increase of $0.9 million from the same period in 2022 primarily attributable to incurring $0.8 million of expenditure in the second quarter of 2023 on research and development activities for our next generation of TyphoonTM equipment.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 we recorded a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $74.3 million ($0.80 per share), compared to $69.8 million ($1.09 per share) for the six months ended June 30, 2022, which was an increase of $4.5 million. Significant contributors to this increase for the six months ended June 30, 2023 included an increase of $17.9 million in exploration expenditures and an increase of $13.4 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. These increases for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were offset by a decrease of $19.0 million due to the six months ended June 30, 2022 including an amount of $19.0 million in relation to a non-cash loss on the revaluation of the convertible notes that were automatically converted into shares of our common stock upon the completion of the IPO on June 30, 2022 and there was no similar expense in 2023.

Exploration expenses were $59.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $17.9 million from $41.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Exploration expenses consisted of the following:

Activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 at Tintic were focused on completing an initial diamond drill hole and commencing a two drill rig exploration program that is testing new areas of the historic Main Tintic Mining District.

General and administrative expenses were $23.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $13.4 million from $9.9 million in six months ended June 30, 2022. Several items contributed to the increase, including:

•a $8.0 million increase in stock-based compensation expense from $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $8.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was due to additional non-cash stock-based compensation expense in relation to Ivanhoe Electric stock option and RSU grants that occurred in November 2022, January 2023 and February 2023;

•a $2.9 million increase in directors and officers insurance expenses from $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was due to the six months ended June 30, 2023 including six months of director and officers insurance expense compared to six months ended June 30, 2022 as we entered into the insurance policy in late June 2022 immediately before our IPO;

•a $1.2 million increase in salary and wages compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 due to adding more people to our management and administrative teams following our IPO.

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $2.0 million, a decrease of $5.0 million from $7.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

VRB's revenue presented 63.8% of our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 ($1.3 million) and 0.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 ($0.0 million). During the second quarter of 2023, VRB delivered, installed and commissioned a 1MW/2MWh energy storage system to a customer in China, which resulted in $1.3 million of revenue being recognized.

CGI’s software licensing and data processing services to the mining and oil and gas industries represented 36.2% of our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 ($0.7 million) and 100.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 ($7.0 million). CGI’s revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $0.7 million a decrease of $6.3 million from $7.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in CGI’s revenue was a result of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 including a one-time amount of $6.5 million relating to a new contract that CGI entered into with one of its customers upon the expiration of a previous three-year contract. Under that agreement with this customer, CGI agreed to license certain software for a one-time fee of $6.5 million, which was received and recognized in the first quarter of 2022. CGI’s revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 consisted of $0.4 million of software licensing revenue and $0.3 million in revenue from processing data.

CGI’s gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $0.5 million, a decrease of $6.3 million from $6.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The licensing of certain software for a one-time fee of $6.5 million had a direct impact on gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as the licenses had no underlying carrying value and therefore resulted in a $6.5 million gross profit being recognized.

Research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $4.0 million, an increase of $1.4 million from the same period in 2022 primarily attributable to incurring $1.5 million of expenditure in the first half of 2023 on commencing research and development activities for our next generation of TyphoonTM equipment.

Stock-Based Compensation

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we granted stock options to certain new employees of the Company. In February 2023, we granted 500,000 stock options at an exercise price of $13.23 per share and in March 2023, we granted 100,000 stock options at an exercise price of $15.46. The fair value of the option grants was determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as $7.22 and $8.53 per share, respectively. In addition, in January 2023, we granted 750,000 RSUs to a new senior officer of the Company which had a fair value on the grant date of $12.15 per share.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Capital Requirements

Cash Resources

We have recurring net losses and negative operating cash flows and we expect that we will continue to operate at a loss for the foreseeable future.

We generate revenue from our technology businesses. We have not generated any revenue from our mining projects and do not expect to generate any revenue from our mining projects for the foreseeable future.

We have funded our operations primarily through the sale of our equity and convertible securities.

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $63.8 million and $139.7 million, respectively, and a working capital of $14.0 million and $133.6 million, respectively. Of the total cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $13.1 million and $20.7 million, respectively, was not available for the general corporate purposes of the Company as these amounts were held by non-wholly-owned subsidiaries. In addition, on July 6, 2023, we completed the closing of the Ma'aden transactions where we issued to Ma’aden an aggregate of 10,269,604 shares of common stock of the Company for gross proceeds of approximately $127.1 million. Of these proceeds approximately $61.1 million is available to be used to advance our portfolio of US mineral projects, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

As at August 14, 2023, we believe that we will have sufficient cash resources to carry out our business plans for at least the next 12 months. We have based these estimates on our current assumptions which may require future adjustments based on our ongoing business decisions as well as, in particular, exploration success at our mineral projects. Accordingly, we may require additional cash resources earlier than we currently expect or we may need to curtail currently planned activities.

Our subsidiary VRB, domiciled in the Cayman Islands, is subject to certain foreign exchange restrictions with respect to its People's Republic of China ("PRC") subsidiaries. There are foreign exchange policies in the PRC that limit the amount of capital that can be directly transmitted offshore from VRB’s PRC subsidiaries to VRB. Since their incorporation, these PRC subsidiaries have had accumulated losses and have not declared or paid any dividends or made any distribution of earnings.

There were no cash transfers to or from our PRC subsidiaries in the form of intercompany loans during the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Refer to Note 18 of our consolidated and combined carve-out financial statements in our 2022 Form 10-K which outlines other restrictions on transfers of net assets from our consolidated subsidiaries to the Company.

Note Payable

In May 2023, as part of the consideration for the acquisition of 5,975 acres of surface title and associated water rights at the Santa Cruz Project we issued to the vendor a secured promissory note in the principal amount of $82.6 million. The promissory note includes an annual interest rate of prime plus 1% and is to be paid in installments, as follows:

•$34.3 million, plus accrued interest, payable on or before November 23, 2023; and

•four equal principal payments of $12.1 million on the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the closing, plus applicable accrued interest.

Convertible Bond — VRB

In 2021, VRB issued a convertible bond for gross proceeds of $24.0 million. The bond has a five-year term and interest accrues at a rate of 8% per annum. Prior to the maturity date, the convertible bond will be automatically converted into equity of VRB upon an equity financing or sale event, at a price per share equal to the lower of (A) the transaction price of the equity financing or sale event, and (B) the valuation cap price of $158.0 million divided by the total shares outstanding at the time of the event. If no equity financing or sale event occurs, VRB must repay the outstanding principal and interest on maturity.

Bridge Loan — Cordoba

In December 2022, JCHX advanced a bridge loan of $10 million to Cordoba Minerals in connection with the strategic arrangement for the joint development of Cordoba Mineral’s Alacran Project. The bridge loan is for an 18-month term and bears interest at 12% per annum during the first 12 months of the term and 14% per annum during the remaining six months, calculated on the basis of a 365-day year. Upon closing the strategic arrangement on May 8, 2023, all of the principal and interest outstanding on the bridge loan was applied towards the first installment as a payment in kind.

Cash Flows

The following table presents our sources and uses of cash for the periods indicated:

Six Months Ended June 30,
2023 2022
Net cash (used in) provided by:
Operating activities (65,830) (44,197)
Investing activities (40,872) (28,414)
Financing activities 30,651 246,764
Effect of foreign exchange on cash 192 (170)
Total change in cash (75,859) 173,983

Operating activities.

Net cash used in operating activities for all periods presented largely was spent on our exploration expenses and our general and administrative costs. We do not generate adequate cash from operations to cover our operating expenses and therefore rely on our financing activities to provide the cash resources to fund our operating and investing activities.

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $65.8 million, an increase of $21.6 million from the $44.2 million of net cash used for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Investing activities.

Our investing activities generally relate to acquisitions of mineral property interests, purchases of public company shares in companies that we may partner with and capital expenditures at our projects. To date, due to our mining projects being in the exploration stage we have not incurred material capital expenditures.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 of $40.9 million was mainly attributable to $39.2 million related to payments for mineral interests and $1.2 million for the purchase of investments that are subject to significant influence. The $39.2 million payments for mineral interests included $35.4 million paid to acquire land at the Santa Cruz Project and $3.5 million of option payments at our Tintic Project. The $1.2 million for the purchase of investments that are subject to significant influence relates to the funding of our 30% interest in the Sama Nickel Corporation Inc. joint venture in the Ivory Coast.

Financing activities.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there were no significant corporate Ivanhoe Electric financing activities as we continued to fund our operations with proceeds from our IPO. We did receive $1.2 million of proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Our subsidiary, Cordoba, raised $29.5 million during six months ended June 30, 2023 in relation to financing its Alacran project through its strategic arrangement with JCHX.

Contractual Obligations

As of June 30, 2023, there were no material changes in our contractual obligations since December 31, 2022 other than those discussed above under "Note Payable".

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2023, we were not involved in any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

Related Party Transactions

See Note 12 of our Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated and combined carve-out financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of our financial statements.

Below are the accounting matters that we believe are critical to our financial statements due to the degree of uncertainty regarding the estimates or assumptions involved and the magnitude of the asset, liability, revenue, expense, gain or loss being reported. Actual results may vary from our estimates in amounts that may be material to the financial statements. An accounting estimate is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates that reasonably could have been used or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact our financial statements.

We base our assumptions and estimates on historical experience and various other sources that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from the estimates we calculate due to changes in circumstances, global economics and politics and general business conditions. A summary of our significant accounting policies are detailed in Note 3 to our consolidated and combined carve-out financial statements included in our 2022 Form 10-K. We have outlined below those policies identified as being critical to the understanding of our business and results of operations and that require the application of significant management judgment in developing estimates.

Recoverable value of exploration mineral interests

We review and evaluate exploration mineral interests for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of our exploration mineral interests and intangible assets did not involve significant estimation in the periods presented as circumstances did not indicate the carrying amount of our assets may not be recoverable. However, the recoverability of our recorded mineral interests is subject to market factors that could significantly affect the recoverability of our assets, such as commodity prices, results of exploration activities that may affect our intentions to continue under option or earn-in agreements and geopolitical circumstances, particularly in Colombia. By nature, significant changes in these factors are reasonably possible to occur periodically, which could materially impact our financial statements.

Stock-based compensation

Compensation expense for options granted to employees, directors and certain service providers is determined based on estimated fair values of the options at the time of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which takes into account, as of the grant date, the fair market value of the shares, expected volatility, expected life, expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the option. The use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires input estimation of the expected life of the option and volatility, which can have a significant impact on the valuation model and resulting expense recorded.

In February 2023, we granted 500,000 stock options at an exercise price of $13.23 per share and in March 2023, we granted 100,000 stock options at an exercise price of $15.46. The fair value of the option grants was determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as $7.22 and $8.53 per share, respectively. The following assumptions were used to compute the fair value of the options granted:

February 1, 2023 Grant Date March 1, 2023 Grant Date
Risk-free interest rate 3.7% 4.5%
Dividend yield nil nil
Estimated volatility 69.8% 69.5%
Expected option life 4 years 4 years

The risk-free interest rate assumption was based on the U.S. treasury constant maturity yield at the date of the grant over the expected life of the option. No dividends are expected to be paid. We calculated the estimated volatility based on the historical volatility of a group of peer companies’ common stock and a group of relevant stock market indices over the expected option life as we only commenced publicly trading in June 2022. The computation of expected option life was determined based on a reasonable expectation of the option life prior to the option being exercised or forfeited.

Income taxes

We make estimates and judgments in determining the provision for income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities and liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties. We are subject to income tax laws in many jurisdictions, including the United States, Canada, Colombia, Peru, Australia, the Ivory Coast and the PRC.

We report income tax in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires the establishment of deferred tax accounts for all temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using currently enacted tax rates. In addition, deferred tax accounts must be adjusted to reflect new rates if enacted into law.

Realization of deferred tax assets is contingent on the generation of future taxable income. As a result, we consider whether it is more likely than not that all or a portion of such assets will be realized during periods when they are available, and if not, we provide a valuation allowance for amounts not likely to be recognized. In determining our valuation allowance, we have not assumed future taxable income from sources other than the reversal of existing temporary differences. The extent to which a valuation allowance is warranted may vary as a result of changes in our estimates of future taxable income. In addition to the potential generation of future taxable income through the establishment of economic feasibility, development and operation of mines on our exploration assets, estimates of future taxable income could change in the event of disposal of assets, the identification of tax-planning strategies or changes in tax laws that would allow the benefits of future deductible temporary differences in certain entities or jurisdictions to be offset against future taxable temporary differences in other entities or jurisdictions.

We recognize the effect of uncertain income tax positions if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. The amount recognized is subject to estimates and our judgment with respect to the likely outcome of each uncertain tax position. The amount that is ultimately incurred for an individual uncertain tax position or for all uncertain tax positions in the aggregate could differ from the amount recognized. We had no uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2023.

Emerging Growth Company Status

We are an “emerging growth company”, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the (“JOBS Act"). The JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, our consolidated and combined carve-out financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

The accounting policies applied in our consolidated and combined carve-out financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report reflect the early adoption of certain accounting standards as the JOBS Act does not preclude an emerging growth company from early adopting a new or revised accounting standard to the extent early adoption is allowed by the accounting standard.

We expect to lose our emerging growth company status at the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, when we expect to qualify as a large accelerated filer based on the worldwide market value of our common equity held by non-affiliates as at June 30, 2023.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of June 30, 2023, our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our principal executive officer

and principal financial officer have concluded based upon the evaluation described above that, as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

From time to time, we may become subject to various legal proceedings that are incidental to the ordinary conduct of our business. Although we cannot accurately predict the amount of any liability that may ultimately arise with respect to any of these matters, we make a provision for potential liabilities when we deem them probable and reasonably estimable. These provisions are based on current information and legal advice and may be adjusted from time to time according to developments. We believe that none of the litigation in which we are currently involved, or have been involved in since the beginning of our most recently completed fiscal year, individually or in the aggregate, is material to our financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.

Our subsidiary Cordoba is currently involved in two legal proceedings. The first is a criminal lawsuit filed by Cordoba in late 2018 and in January 2019 with the Colombian prosecutors against nine members of former Colombian management alleging breach of fiduciary obligations, abuse of trust, theft and fraud. This proceeding is ongoing. In the second proceeding, Cordoba (along with the National Mining Agency, Ministry of Mines and Energy, the local environmental authority, the Municipality of Puerto Libertador and the State of Cordoba) were served with a class action claim by the Alacran Community. This class action seeks (i) an injunction against Cordoba´s operations in the Alacrán area and (ii) an injunction against the prior declaration by the authorities that the Alacran Community´s mining activities were illegal. The claim was initially filed with the Administrative Court of Medellín, which remanded the case to the Administrative Court of Montería, which contested it and submitted the case to the Council of State. The Council of State determined the Administrative Court of Montería as the competent tribunal, where the process is currently being conducted. The Administrative Court of Montería admitted the commencement of the class action on September 2021. The decision was challenged by Cordoba and other defendants and confirmed by the Court. Cordoba timely filed its: (i) response to the lawsuit and statement of defense; and (ii) opposition to the injunction requested by plaintiffs. The Court now should: (i) issue a decision on the injunction; and (ii) schedule date and time for the initial hearing. While the court matters proceed, Cordoba will incur additional costs that will negatively impact its financial position. As well, the litigation process is uncertain and it is possible that the second proceeding is resolved against Cordoba, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There have been no material changes to our risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our 2022 Form 10-K.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2023

There were no unregistered sales of equity securities during the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Use of Proceeds from our IPO

On June 27, 2022, our Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-265175) relating to our IPO of our common stock was declared effective by the SEC.

On June 30, 2022, we completed our IPO and issued and sold 14,388,000 shares of our common stock at a price to the public of $11.75 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $169.1 million. BMO Capital Markets Corp. and Jefferies LLC acted as joint book-running managers for the IPO and as representatives of the underwriters.

The net proceeds from the IPO to us, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses of $11.1 million, were $158.0 million. No IPO expenses were paid directly or indirectly to any of our directors or officers (or their associates) or persons owning 10.0% or more of any class of our equity securities or to any other affiliates. As at June 30, 2023, the Company's use of net proceeds is materially in-line with the planned use of net proceeds as described in the final prospectus.

NOW THEREFORE THIS AGREEMENT WITNESSES that the Company and the Employee (collectively the "Parties"), as Parties hereto, in consideration of the respective covenants and agreements on the part of each of them, herein contained, and each intending to be legally bound hereby, do hereby covenant and agree as follows:

Section 1Employment

1.1The Company hereby engages the Employee, and the Employee acknowledges and agrees, to perform the function of Chief Geophysics Officer of the Company (the "Position"), based in Vancouver, British Columbia or the United Kingdom, at the option of the Employee, reporting to the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the "CEO"). If Employee decides to relocate to the United Kingdom, the Company and the Employee shall execute a new employment agreement on substantially similar terms as this Executive Employment Agreement with necessary modifications to reflect the Employee’s new place of employment.

1.2In fulfilment of the Position, the Employee will carry out such duties and responsibilities as are customarily performed by persons in such role within the industry and such other duties as the Company or the CEO may reasonably assign from time to time, having regard to the Employee’s background, skills and qualifications. The Company reserves the right to reasonably amend the Employee's duties, responsibilities, reporting relationships and powers from time to time in its sole discretion, again having regard to the Employee’s background, skills and qualifications.

1.3The Employee will be expected to travel outside of the work location where currently based, to the Company's offices, project sites and other locations as required.

Section 2Term

This Agreement will be effective from July 1, 2023, and will remain in full force and effect until terminated as hereinafter provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, March 4, 2011 (the “Continuous Service Date”) will be recognized as the Employee’s continuous service date for all purposes, including, without limitation, Section 10 below.

Section 3Responsibility

Subject to the approval and/or ratification of the Company’s Board of Directors (the "Board") in accordance with Company policies regarding delegation of authorities and the CEO, the Employee will have the authority and duty to perform and carry out such duties and responsibilities as are customarily carried out by persons holding similar positions in other companies comparable in size to the Company and such additional and related duties as may from time to time be reasonably assigned, delegated, limited or determined by the Board and/or the CEO, having regard to the Employee’s background, skills and qualifications.

Section 4Other Activities

4.1The Employee's employment hereunder shall be substantially full-time and exclusively for the benefit of the Company, except as permitted herein.

4.2The Employee agrees not to undertake, or be engaged in the performance of, any work, services or other business activity (which does not include charitable or philanthropic endeavors that do not materially interfere with the Employee's employment hereunder), directly or indirectly, for any other person, firm, company, other legal entity or governmental agency or organization, with the exception of:

(a)the Employee's employment with the Company; and

(b)any other pre-existing arrangements in effect at the date of this Agreement that have been notified to the Board and agreed (“Grandfathered Arrangements”) but provided that any such Grandfathered Arrangements shall remain subject to the Company’s policies governing such arrangements and any changes that may occur from time to time,

unless it is determined by prior written approval of the Board or the CEO that such activities will not interfere with, or impede, in any significant manner the performance of Employee's duties in the Position, and further provided that:

(c)before the Employee can engage in any work, services or other business activity which involves the Employee owning or acquiring any interest in excess of five percent, directly or indirectly, in any mining or technology company or the rendering of any advice or service to another person, partnership or other legal entity or a joint venture engaged in the business of exploring for and/or mining minerals, the Employee must disclose full particulars thereof in writing to the Board and the CEO, and, within 15 days after the date of such disclosure, the Employee must receive from the Board or the CEO a decision that such activities by the Employee will not, in the opinion of the Board or the CEO, interfere or be in conflict with the Employee's performance of his/her duties to the Company hereunder. If a decision is not received from the Board or the CEO within such 15-day period, the activities will be deemed to interfere or be in conflict with the Employee's performance of his/her duties to the Company hereunder unless and until a contrary decision is received from the Board or the CEO, and

(d)before engaging in any work, services or business activity other than the kind described in sub paragraph (d) of this Section 4.2 or is a Grandfathered Arrangement, the Employee shall have disclosed same in writing to the Board; and

(e)notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employee may engage in work for an affiliate of the Company, including serving on the board of directors of any affiliate, consistent with his/her responsibilities for the Company to the extent agreed by the Board or the CEO.

4.3The Employee shall refer to the Board and the CEO any and all facts, matters and transactions that may adversely affect the Employee's relationship with the Company or the Employee's ability to perform his/her duties, or in respect of which an actual or potential conflict of interest between the Employee and the Company has arisen or may arise, and the Employee shall not proceed with any such matter or transaction until the Board's approval therefor is obtained. For purposes of clarification, this provision is not intended to limit in any way the Employee's other fiduciary obligations to the Company that may arise in law or in equity.

4.4Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Employee acknowledges, covenants and agrees that under no circumstances will his/her provision of services in the Position involve or include, nor will the Employee be asked by any director or officer of the Company to engage in, any activities contrary to the Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act (Canada) or the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and any other similar legislation in the jurisdiction in which the Employee is employed or to whose laws the Employee may be subject.

4.5The Employee shall adhere to the Company's policies in effect from time to time.

Section 5Compensation

5.1In consideration of the performance by the Employee of his/her responsibilities and duties in the Position hereunder:

(a)Base Salary. The Company shall pay the Employee an annual base salary of Three Hundred and Seventy-Two Thousand Canadian Dollars (CAD$372,000) (the "Base Salary") per year. The Base Salary and all other forms of compensation payable hereunder are subject to deduction for all applicable taxes,

payroll deductions and withholdings required by law and otherwise in accordance with the payroll practices of the Company for similarly situated employees of the Company.

(b)The Base Salary will be reviewed annually and, if increased or decreased, such increased or decreased amount shall be the Base Salary hereunder; provided however that the Base Salary may only be decreased by a total cumulative percentage of 15% over a one-year period as part of a general executive or company-wide reduction for cost savings or similar requirements, unless otherwise agreed by the Employee in advance and in writing.

(c)Short-Term Incentive Plan. The Employee will be eligible on an annual basis to receive a short term incentive award. The Employee’s short-term bonus target for 2023 is 75% of Base Salary ("Target Bonus"). The Employee’s Target Bonus will be reviewed by the Compensation Committee of the Board on an annual basis. The actual short term bonus awarded to the Employee (the “Short Term Bonus”), if any, may be less than or greater than the Target Bonus (and may be zero), and will be determined based upon performance criteria and targets established by the Board and the Compensation Committee on an annual basis, and the achievement and/or satisfaction of such criteria and targets, as reasonably evaluated in the discretion of the Company. The payment of a Short Term Bonus and quantum of such bonus is not guaranteed in any year or part year of employment, and the payment and quantum of any Short Term Bonus in one year does not obligate the Company to provide a similar or any Short Term Bonus in any other year of employment. Any Short Term Bonus payment made to the Employee is inclusive of statutory requirements, including vacation pay.

(d)The Employee must be actively employed by the Company or on a statutory or company-approved leave of absence on the payment date for a Short Term Bonus to be entitled to payment of a Short Term Bonus in respect of that year. For the purpose of this Agreement, “actively employed” means that the Employee is employed and actively performing employment duties for the Company or is on vacation and, for certainty, the Employee is considered actively employed during any minimum period of statutory notice of termination (or pay in lieu) required under applicable employment standards legislation (but not during any other period of notice of termination or pay in lieu, including under the common law). If the Employee is on a statutory or company-approved leave of absence during, or is only actively employed by the Company for, part of the year to which a Short Term Bonus relates, any Short Term Bonus awarded to the Employee will be subject to proration based on the portion of the year the employee was actively employed.

(e)In the event the Company adopts a short-term incentive plan, the Employee’s entitlements to a short-term incentive award will be governed by such plan.

(f)Long-Term Incentive Plan. Commencing in 2024, the Employee will be eligible to participate in the Company’s long-term incentive plan in accordance with the terms of such plan, as amended from time to time (the “LTIP”). The Employee’s long-term bonus target for 2023 will be 100% of Base Salary. The Employee’s long-term bonus target will be reviewed by the Compensation Committee of the Board on an annual basis. Any long-term incentive awards granted to the Employee will be governed by the LTIP and any applicable grant agreements governing such awards (each, a “Grant Agreement”).

(g)Stock Option Grant. Effective July 1, 2023, the Company will make an initial grant of stock options ("Options") to the Employee under the LTIP and in accordance therewith, such number of Options to equal 100,000 with a strike price of not less than $11.75 USD per share or at least equal to the fair market value per share on the date of grant if the market value is greater than $11.75 USD per share on the date of grants. The Options will be governed by the terms of the LTIP and corresponding stock option grant agreement.

(h)Benefits. The Employee will be eligible to participate in employee benefit plans (including health, medical, dental, and other insurance benefits) from time to time in effect for similarly situated employees of the Company. The Employee's participation will be subject to the terms of the applicable plan documents and generally applicable policies of the Company, in each case, as amended from time to time. Employee’s health and medical benefits coverage shall begin on the effective date of this Agreement. The Employee acknowledges that the Company may amend or terminate any employee benefit plans from time, provided that the benefits provided to the Employee following any such amendment or termination will be substantially similar in the aggregate to those provided to the Employee prior to such amendment or termination.

Section 6Expenses

The Company will reimburse the Employee for any and all reasonable and documented expenses actually and necessarily incurred by the Employee in connection with the performance of his/her duties under this Agreement, including reasonable travel and lodging expenses associated with travel to Phoenix, Arizona and/or any other company project sites in the performance of the Employee’s duties, in accordance with the policies of the Company in effect from time to time. The Employee will furnish the Company with an itemized account of his/her expenses in such form or forms as may reasonably be required by the Company and at such times or intervals as may reasonably be required by the Company.

Section 7Vacation

7.1The Employee will be entitled to accrue with service paid vacation of twenty-five (25) days (5 weeks) within each calendar year period. This vacation must be taken at such times that do not adversely compromise the Employee's performance of his/her duties under this Agreement.

7.2Vacation must be taken in the year in respect of which it is earned; provided, however, that subject to appliable employment standards legislation, the Employee may carry forward a maximum of ten (10) days' (2 weeks’) paid vacation from one entitlement year to the next. Any such vacation carried forward must be taken by 30 June of the subsequent year, after which it will be forfeited unless otherwise required under applicable employment standards legislation. Unused vacation that is not carried forward pursuant to this section, to the extent in excess of the Employee’s entitlements under applicable employment standards legislation, will be forfeited.

7.3All other responsibilities and rights (if any) of the Employee relating to accrual of vacation benefits, requesting and using vacation benefits, and receipt of payment for accrued, unused vacation benefits upon separation from employment shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the Company's applicable policies, practices, and procedures, subject to applicable employment standards legislation.

Section 8Indemnity

The Company shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Employee from any and all claims, damages, losses or costs to the extent provided by applicable law and the Company's organizational and similar documents, including but not limited to, those relating to loss or damage to property, or injury to, or death of any person or persons arising from or out of the Employee's performance of his/her obligations under this Agreement.

Section 9Consent to Use Personal Information

9.1The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company has the right to collect, use and disclose the terms and conditions of his/her employment and any other identifying personal information required to be disclosed for reporting or business purposes or otherwise by law, including:

(a)ensuring that he/she is paid for his/her services to the Company;

(b)administering any benefits to which he/she is or may become entitled to, including bonuses, medical, dental, disability and life insurance benefits, and/or annual bonuses and long-term incentive securities. This shall include the disclosure of his/her personal information to any insurance company and/or broker or to any entity that manages or administers the Company's benefits on behalf of the Company, subject to applicable laws;

(c)compliance with any regulatory reporting and withholding requirements relating to his/her employment; and

(d)in the event of a sale or transfer of all or part of the shares or assets of the Company, disclosing to any potential acquiring organization solely for the purposes of determining the value of the Company and its assets and liabilities and to evaluate the Employee's position in the Company. If the Employee's information is disclosed to any potential acquiring organization, the Company will require the potential acquiring organization to agree to use the information solely for the purpose of evaluating the Company and to protect the privacy of Employee's information in a manner that is consistent with any policy of the Company dealing with privacy that may be in effect from time to time and/or any applicable law that may be in effect from time to time.

Section 10Termination

10.1This Agreement and the Employee's employment may be terminated as follows:

(a)By Employee on Voluntary Resignation: Upon receipt by the Company of the Employee's resignation, in writing, which shall be provided not less than three (3) months prior to the effective date of resignation. Employee agrees to faithfully perform and discharge all of his/her duties and responsibilities under this Agreement throughout the notice period until the effective date of his/her employment termination. At any time after receiving notice of Employee's resignation, the Company shall have the sole option to relieve Employee of his/her duties and/or to restrict Employee from accessing Company facilities or systems, communicating with Company employees or third parties about work related matters, attending work-related events, or otherwise conducting business on Company's behalf (and the Employee acknowledges that if the Company exercises its rights in this regard, it will not constitute termination of the Employee’s employment or constructive dismissal). In all cases, the Employee will continue to be an employee throughout the notice period until the effective date of termination and will receive from the Company all compensation owing under this Agreement through the effective date of resignation. The Employee’s entitlements with respect to any outstanding awards under the LTIP shall be determined in accordance with the LTIP and applicable Grant Agreements.

(b)On Death or Disability of Employee: Automatically on the death of the Employee or upon termination of this Agreement due to frustration of contract by reason of Disability. The Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement due to frustration of contract by reason of "Disability" if Employee is unable to perform the essential functions of Employee's Position, taking into account accommodation by the Company as applicable, for an aggregate of three hundred and sixty (360) days in any continuous two (2) year period, by reason of any mental or physical illness, condition, impairment or incapacity. In these circumstances, the Employee (or his/her estate) shall be entitled to receive as full and sole compensation in discharge of the Company's obligations to the Employee under statute, this Agreement and common law:

(i)any Base Salary owing to the date of termination, reimbursements that are due and owing to the Employee in respect of expenses properly incurred prior to the date of termination; and unused vacation pay earned or accrued to the date of termination (collectively, the “Accrued Obligations”);

(ii)notwithstanding Section 5.1(d), payment of a Short Term Bonus for the year in which the termination date occurs, calculated in accordance with Section 5.1(c), prorated for the Employee’s period of active employment in that year and payable at the same time Short Term Bonuses are paid to other employees of the Company;

(iii)treatment of any outstanding awards under the LTIP in accordance with the LTIP and applicable Grant Agreements.

(c)By the Company without Cause: By the Company at any time, and for any reason whatsoever upon providing the Employee with (i) three (3) months’ advance written notice of termination or pay in lieu thereof (or some combination thereof), in the Company’s sole discretion (as set out in paragraphs 10.1(d) and 10.1(e) below) and (ii) the additional payments and benefits set out in paragraph 10.1(f) below.

(d)For any period of advance written notice of termination provided by the Company pursuant to Section 10.1(c), the Employee agrees to faithfully perform and discharge all of his/her duties and responsibilities under this Agreement throughout the notice period until the effective date of his/her employment termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have the sole option to, at any time after delivering advance notice of termination, relieve Employee of his/her duties and/or to restrict Employee from accessing Company facilities or systems, communicating with Company employees or third parties about work-related matters, attending work-related events, or otherwise conducting business on Company's behalf. In such case, the Employee will continue to be an employee throughout the notice period until the effective date of termination and shall be entitled to all compensation owing under this Agreement (including continuation of any Employee benefit plans) until the effective termination date.

(e)For any period of pay in lieu of notice provided by the Company pursuant to Section 10.1(c), the Employee’s entitlement to pay in lieu of notice shall be calculated at the Employee’s then-current Base Salary rate, subject to any greater entitlements under applicable employment standards legislation. To the extent required under applicable employment standards legislation, all of the Employee’s benefit plans will be continued for the minimum period so required.

(f)In addition to the foregoing, following the Employee’s effective termination date, the Employee will receive the following, as full and sole compensation in discharge of the Company's obligations to the Employee under statute, this Agreement and common law:

(i)the Accrued Obligations together with any obligations accrued and then owing under the Company's employee benefit plans;

(ii)a lump sum cash payment, less applicable withholdings, equal to 1.5 times Employee's annual Base Salary at the rate in effect as at the termination date and 1.5 times the Target Bonus for the year in which termination of employment occurs, which the Parties agree shall fully satisfy any Short Term Bonus entitlements or obligations pursuant to Section 5.1(c) - (e) hereof, payable on the forty-fifth (45th) day, or next succeeding business day if the 45th day is not a business day, following Employee's separation from service (provided, however, that any statutory entitlements will be paid to the Employee in accordance with applicable employment standards legislation);

(iii)treatment of any outstanding awards under the LTIP in accordance with the LTIP and applicable Grant Agreements.

The payments and benefits provided in paragraph 10.1(f)(ii), to the extent in excess of the Employee’s entitlements under applicable employment standards legislation, are contingent upon the Employee's execution of a full and final release in favour of the Company. For certainty, in no case shall the Employee’s entitlements on termination without cause be less than the Employee’s entitlements under applicable employment standards legislation (and if the Employee’s statutory entitlements exceed the payments and benefits set out herein, the Company will provide the Employee with such statutory entitlements in substitution for the Employee’s entitlements herein).

(g)For greater certainty, this Section 10.1(c) shall not apply to a termination without cause following a Change in Control under the circumstances provided for in Section 10.2(a).

(h)By the Company with Cause: The Company may terminate this Agreement, and Employee's employment hereunder, for Cause immediately upon written notice to Employee. In these circumstances, the Employee will be entitled to receive as full and sole compensation in discharge of the Company's obligations to the Employee under statue, this Agreement and common law, the Accrued Obligations together with any rights under the Company's employee benefit plans, including equity or equity-based compensation plans, which will be governed solely by the terms of such plans and, if and only to the extent applicable, any other minimum standards payments and benefits to which the Employee may be entitled under applicable employment standards legislation.

(i)For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" shall be deemed to exist if any of the following circumstances exist, as determined by the Board, regardless of the timing of the precipitating events:

(i)Employee's willful failure to substantially perform his/her or his/her duties and responsibilities to the Company;

(ii)Employee's violation of a Company policy, after receiving thirty (30) days written notice from the Company of the precise policy and the Employee's conduct alleged to violate the policy, and Employee has failed to cure the violation within the 30-day notice period (provided, however, that no advance notice shall be required if the violation is of such a serious nature and degree so as to be incompatible with continued employment);

(iii)Employee's commission of any act of fraud, embezzlement, misappropriation, breach of fiduciary duty or duty of loyalty, dishonesty or any other intentional act of misconduct that has caused or is reasonably expected to result in material injury to the Company;

(iv)Employee has been convicted of or pled guilty or nolo contendere to a crime that constitutes a felony (or local law equivalent) or an indictable or hybrid offence or any crime or offence involving moral turpitude, if such crime or offence is (A) work-related, (B) impairs Employee's ability to perform services for the Company, or (C) results in reputational or financial harm to the Company;

(j)Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a termination for Cause the Employee's rights and entitlements with respect to any outstanding award under the LTIP shall be governed in accordance with the terms of the LTIP and applicable Grant Agreements.

10.2Upon a Change in Control.

(a)If a Change in Control occurs and, at any time during the twelve (12) month period following such Change in Control, either (i) there occurs a termination of the Employee's employment by the Company, other than for Cause, or (ii) the Employee resigns employment for Good Reason the Employee shall be entitled to receive as full and sole compensation in discharge of the Company's obligations to the Employee under statue, this Agreement and common law:

(i)the Accrued Obligations together with any rights under the Company's employee benefit plans;

(ii)a lump sum cash payment, less applicable withholdings, equal to: eighteen (18) months of Employee's annual Base Salary (at the rate in effect as at the termination date or, if the Employee’s Base Salary was materially reduced following the Change in Control, at the rate in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control); plus one (1) additional month of Base Salary for each full year of service after the third (3rd) full year of service (running from the Continuous Service Date) up a maximum of twenty-four (24) months’ annual Base Salary; together with 150% of the Target Bonus for the year in which termination of employment occurs, which the Parties agree shall fully satisfy any Short Term Bonus entitlements or obligations pursuant to Section 5.1(c) - (e) hereof, payable on the forty-fifth (45th) day, or next succeeding business day if the 45th day is not a business day, following Employee's separation from service (provided, however, that any statutory entitlements will be paid to the Employee in accordance with applicable employment standards legislation);

(iii)continuation of any employee benefit plans for the minimum period (if any) required under applicable employment standards legislation; and

(iv)treatment of any outstanding awards under the LTIP in accordance with the LTIP and applicable Grant Agreements.

The payments and benefits provided in paragraph 10.2(a)(ii), to the extent in excess of the Employee’s entitlements (if any) under applicable employment standards legislation, are contingent upon the Employee's execution of a full and final release in favour of the Company. For certainty, in no case shall the Employee’s entitlements on termination following a Change in Control be less than the Employee’s entitlements under applicable employment standards legislation (and if the Employee’s statutory

entitlements exceed the payments and benefits set out herein, the Company will provide the Employee with such statutory entitlements in substitution for the Employee’s entitlements herein).

(b)For purposes of this Section 10.2, "Good Reason" means any of the following events, unless the Employee gives his/her express written consent thereto:

(i)a material adverse change in the Employee's Position as in effect immediately prior to a Change in Control. Such material adverse change shall mean a material diminution in the Employee's duties or authority or the assignment to the Employee of any duties or responsibilities which are materially inconsistent with such Position. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Good Reason shall not be deemed to occur upon a change in the Employee's duties or responsibilities that is solely a result of the Company no longer being publicly traded;

(ii)a material reduction by the Company in the Employee's annual Base Salary as in effect immediately prior to a Change in Control;

(iii)a material failure by the Company to continue in effect any employee benefit program in which the Employee is participating at the time of a Change in Control other than as a result of the normal expiration of any such employee benefit program in accordance with its terms as in effect at the time of a Change in Control or replacement of such benefit program with a comparable program, or the taking of any action, or the failure to act, by the Company which would materially and adversely affect the Employee's continued participation in any such employee benefit program on at least as favorable a basis to the Employee as on the date of a Change in Control;

(iv)the Company requiring the Employee to be based in a location more than 50 miles from where the Employee is based at the time of a Change in Control and except for required travel on the Company's business to an extent substantially consistent with the Employee's business travel obligations in the ordinary course of business immediately prior to the Change in Control;

(v)the Company repudiating or breaching any of its material obligations under this Agreement; or

(vi)the Company requiring the Employee to report to a person of lesser authority or standing than that set forth in Section 1.1; provided that a general change in overall reporting structure bona fide entered into by the Company in the interests of improved management of its business and not limited to the individual Employee, shall not be a change in reporting responsibilities as contemplated by this clause.

(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, to constitute Good Reason hereunder, the Employee must give notice to the Company within 30 days following the Employee's knowledge of an event constituting Good Reason describing the alleged failure or action by the Company in respect of the events set out in clauses (i) to (vi) directly above and advising the Company of the Employee's intention to terminate the Employee's employment for Good Reason. If the Employee fails to provide such notice within 30 days, such event shall not constitute Good Reason under this Agreement. Following receipt of such notice from the Employee, the Company shall then have 30 days to take any required corrective action to rectify or rescind such event (and if such event is so rectified or rescinded, such event shall not constitute Good Reason) and to notify the Employee in writing that it has completed such rectification or rescindment, or to notify the Employee that it denies the occurrence of such event.

(d)A notice of resignation for Good Reason in accordance with the foregoing will be deemed to have occurred within the twelve (12) month period following a Change in Control provided the Employee gives the required notice to the Company prior to the end of such twelve (12) month period.

(e)The payments provided for in paragraph (a) under this Section 10.2 shall be inclusive of the Employee's entitlement to notice and severance pay at common law or by statute. The Company shall not be obligated to make any further payments under this Agreement, except for the payment of any reasonable expenses due and owing pursuant to Section 6.

(f)For the purposes of this Agreement, "Change in Control" means any of the following events occurring after the date hereof:

(II)after which no person or group beneficially owns voting securities representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity; provided however that no person or group shall be treated for purposes of this Section as beneficially owning 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity solely as a result of the voting power held in the Company prior to the consummation of the transaction; and

(III)after which at least a majority of the board of directors (or the analogous governing body) of the Successor Entity were Board members at the time of the Board's approval of the execution of the initial agreement providing for such transaction; or

(iv)the date which is 10 business days prior to the completion of a liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

10.3The Employee agrees that the notice, pay in lieu of notice (or a combination thereof), together with the payments and benefits set out in this Agreement, including as set out in Sections 10.1(c) or 10.2 shall be in full and final settlement of any and all actions, causes of actions, suits, claims, demands and entitlements whatsoever which the Employee has or may have, whether pursuant to statute, common law or otherwise, against the Company and any of its directors, officers, employees, representatives, successors and assigns, arising out of the Employee's hiring, employment and the termination of the Employee's employment or this Agreement and the Employee expressly waives any and all entitlement to reasonable notice or pay in lieu thereof pursuant to common law.

11.2If the Employee is a director or other officer or manager of the Company or of any of its subsidiary companies, the Company is not obliged to ensure that the Employee remains a director or other officer or manager of the Company or any subsidiary. The removal of the Employee as a director of the Company by reason of election by the Company's shareholders, or removal of the Employee as a director of a subsidiary, or removal from that other office or management position will not amount to a breach of this Agreement or constitute Good Reason or constitute grounds for termination with Cause.

11.3If the Employee is at any time not a director of the Company or of any of its subsidiary companies, then the Employee shall not be entitled to and shall not hold himself/herself out as a director and the removal of the term "Director" from the Employee's job title will not constitute a breach by the Company of this Agreement.

11.4Upon the termination of the Employee's employment by the Company for any reason (unless the Company in writing requires the Employee not to do so) the Employee hereby agrees to resign from and vacate each and every office as director of the Company or of any of its subsidiary companies and every other office or management position which he/she may hold in the Company or a subsidiary company to which he/she may have been appointed or elected, and for purposes hereof the Employee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally appoints any director of the Company or the company secretary of the Company as his/her agent or attorney to effect each such resignation.

11.6The Employee hereby indemnifies the Company (and their respective officers, managers and employees) in respect of any claims, losses, costs or expenses whatsoever (including indirect and consequential damages) which may be suffered or incurred by any of them arising out of or in connection with the Employee refusing for any reason whatsoever to resign from and/or vacate any office as a director or other position contemplated in Section 11.4 for purposes of having to have the Employee removed as a director of the Company or a subsidiary company.

The provisions of Section 12 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

12.2The Employee agrees that all documents of any nature pertaining to the activities of the Company, including Confidential Information, in the Employee's possession now or at any time during the Employee's period of employment, are and shall be the property of the Company and that all such documents and copies of them shall be surrendered to the Company when requested by the Company.

Accordingly, the Employee agrees that in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity, the Company will be entitled as a matter of right to seek a temporary or permanent injunction or other equitable relief against such breach or threatened breach from any court of competent jurisdiction, without the necessity of showing any actual damages or that money damages would not afford an adequate remedy, and without the necessity of posting any bond or other security.

13.5The Employee further agrees that a breach by his/her of any of the covenants contained in this Section 13 constitutes Cause to terminate the Employee's employment.

Section 14Representations and Warranties

The Employee represents and warrants to the Company that the execution and performance of this Agreement will not result in or constitute a default, breach or violation or an event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would be a default, breach or violation of any understanding, agreement or commitment, written or oral, express or implied, to which the Employee is currently a party or by which the Employee or Employee's property is currently bound.

NOW THEREFORE THIS AGREEMENT WITNESSES that the Company and the Employee (collectively the "Parties"), as Parties hereto, in consideration of the respective covenants and agreements on the part of each of them, herein contained, and each intending to be legally bound hereby, do hereby covenant and agree as follows:

Section 1Employment

1.1The Company hereby engages the Employee, and the Employee acknowledges and agrees, to perform the function of Senior Vice President Mine Development of the Company (the "Position"), based in Arizona, with a regular travel schedule to be reasonably agreed among the Company and the Employee, and reporting to the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the "CEO").

1.2In fulfilment of the Position, the Employee will carry out such duties and responsibilities as are customarily performed by persons in such role within the industry and such other duties as the Company or the CEO may reasonably assign from time to time, having regard to the Employee’s background, skills and qualifications. The Company reserves the right to reasonably amend the Employee's duties, responsibilities, reporting relationships and powers from time to time in its sole discretion, again having regard to the Employee’s background, skills and qualifications.

Subject to the approval and/or ratification of the Company’s Board of Directors (the "Board") in accordance with Company policies regarding delegation of authorities and the CEO, the Employee will have the authority and duty to perform and carry out such duties and responsibilities as are customarily carried out by persons holding similar positions in other companies comparable in size to the Company and such additional and related duties as may from time to time be reasonably assigned, delegated, limited or determined by the Board and/or the CEO, having regard to the Employee’s background, skills and qualifications.

Section 3Other Activities

3.1The Employee's employment hereunder shall be substantially full-time and exclusively for the benefit of the Company, except as permitted herein.

3.2The Employee agrees not to undertake, or be engaged in the performance of, any work, services or other business activity (which does not include charitable or philanthropic endeavors that do not materially interfere with the Employee's employment hereunder), directly or indirectly, for any other person, firm, company, other legal entity or governmental agency or organization, with the exception of:

(a)the Employee's employment with the Company; and

(b)any other pre-existing arrangements in effect at the date of this Agreement that have been notified to the Board and agreed (“Grandfathered Arrangements”) but provided that any such Grandfathered Arrangements shall remain subject to the Company’s policies governing such arrangements and any changes that may occur from time to time,

unless it is determined by prior written approval of the Board or the CEO that such activities will not interfere with, or impede, in any significant manner the performance of Employee's duties in the Position, and further provided that:

(c)before the Employee can engage in any work, services or other business activity which involves the Employee owning or acquiring any interest in excess of five percent, directly or indirectly, in any mining or technology company or the rendering of any advice or service to another person, partnership or other legal entity or a joint venture engaged in the business of exploring for and/or mining minerals, the Employee must disclose full particulars thereof in writing to the Board and the CEO, and, within 15 days after the date of such disclosure, the Employee must receive from the Board or the CEO a decision that such activities by the Employee will not, in the opinion of the Board or the CEO, interfere or be in conflict with the Employee's performance of his/her duties to the Company hereunder. If a decision is not received from the Board or the CEO within such 15-day period, the activities will be deemed to interfere or be in conflict with the Employee's performance of his/her duties to the Company hereunder unless and until a contrary decision is received from the Board or the CEO, and

(d)before engaging in any work, services or business activity other than the kind described in sub paragraph (c) of this Section 3.2 or is a Grandfathered Arrangement, the Employee shall have disclosed same in writing to the Board; and

(e)notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employee may engage in work for an affiliate of the Company, including serving on the board of directors of any affiliate, consistent with his/her responsibilities for the Company to the extent agreed by the Board or the CEO.

3.3The Employee shall refer to the Board and the CEO any and all facts, matters and transactions that may adversely affect the Employee's relationship with the Company or the Employee's ability to perform his/her duties, or in respect of which an actual or potential conflict of interest between the Employee and the Company has arisen or may arise, and the Employee shall not proceed with any such matter or transaction until the Board's approval therefor is obtained. For purposes of clarification, this provision is not intended to limit in any way the Employee's other fiduciary obligations to the Company that may arise in law or in equity.

3.4Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Employee acknowledges, covenants and agrees that under no circumstances will his/her provision of services in the Position involve or include, nor will the Employee be asked by any director or officer of the Company to engage in, any activities contrary to the Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act (Canada) or the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and any other similar legislation in the jurisdiction in which the Employee is employed or to whose laws the Employee may be subject.

3.5The Employee shall adhere to the Company's policies in effect from time to time.

Section 4Compensation

4.1In consideration of the performance by the Employee of his/her responsibilities and duties in the Position hereunder:

(a)Base Salary. The Company shall pay the Employee an annual base salary of Three Hundred and Seventy-Two Thousand Canadian Dollars (CAD$372,000) (the "Base Salary") per year. The Base Salary and all other forms of compensation payable hereunder are subject to deduction for all applicable taxes, payroll deductions and withholdings required by law and otherwise in accordance with the payroll practices of the Company for similarly situated employees of the Company.

(b)The Base Salary will be reviewed annually and, if increased or decreased, such increased or decreased amount shall be the Base Salary hereunder; provided however that the Base Salary may only be decreased by a total cumulative percentage of 15% over a one-year period as part of a general executive or company-wide reduction for cost savings or similar requirements, unless otherwise agreed by the Employee in advance and in writing.

(c)Short-Term Incentive Plan. The Employee will be eligible on an annual basis to receive a short term incentive award. The Employee’s short-term bonus target for 2023 is 75% of Base Salary ("Target Bonus"). The Employee’s Target Bonus will be reviewed by the Compensation Committee of the Board on an annual basis. The actual short term bonus awarded to the Employee (the “Short Term Bonus”), if any, may be less than or greater than the Target Bonus (and may be zero), and will be determined based upon performance criteria and targets established by the Board and the Compensation Committee on an annual basis, and the achievement and/or satisfaction of such criteria and targets, as reasonably evaluated in the discretion of the Company. The payment of a Short Term Bonus and quantum of such bonus is not guaranteed in any year or part year of employment, and the payment and quantum of any Short Term Bonus in one year does not obligate the Company to provide a similar or any Short Term Bonus in any other year of employment. Any Short Term Bonus payment made to the Employee is inclusive of statutory requirements, including vacation pay.

(d)The Employee must be actively employed by the Company or on a statutory or company-approved leave of absence on the payment date for a Short Term Bonus to be entitled to payment of a Short Term Bonus in respect of that year. For the purpose of this Agreement, “actively employed” means that the Employee is employed and actively performing employment duties for the Company or is on vacation and, for certainty, the Employee is considered actively employed during any minimum period of statutory notice of termination (or pay in lieu) required under applicable employment standards legislation (but not during any other period of notice of termination or pay in lieu, including under the common law). If the Employee is on a statutory or company-approved leave of absence during, or is only actively employed by the Company for, part of the year to which a Short Term Bonus relates, any Short Term Bonus awarded to the Employee will be subject to proration based on the portion of the year the employee was actively employed.

(e)In the event the Company adopts a short-term incentive plan, the Employee’s entitlements to a short-term incentive award will be governed by such plan.

(f)Long-Term Incentive Plan. Commencing in 2024, the Employee will be eligible to participate in the Company’s long-term incentive plan in accordance with the terms of such plan, as amended from time to time (the “LTIP”). The Employee’s long-term bonus target for 2023 will be 100% of Base Salary. The Employee’s long-term bonus target will be reviewed by the Compensation Committee of the Board on an annual basis. Any long-term incentive awards granted to the Employee will be governed by the LTIP and any applicable grant agreements governing such awards (each, a “Grant Agreement”).

(g)Benefits.

(ii)a lump sum cash payment, less applicable withholdings, equal to: eighteen (18) months of Employee's annual Base Salary (at the rate in effect as at the termination date or, if the Employee’s Base Salary was materially reduced following the Change in Control, at the rate in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control); plus one (1) additional month of Base Salary for each full year of service after the third (3rd) full year of service (running from the Continuous Service Date) up a maximum of twenty-four (24) months’ annual Base Salary; together with 150% of the Target Bonus for the year in which termination of employment occurs, which the Parties agree shall fully satisfy any Short Term Bonus entitlements or obligations pursuant to Section 4.1(c) hereof, payable on the forty-fifth (45th) day, or next succeeding business day if the 45th day is not a business day, following Employee's separation from service (provided, however, that any statutory entitlements will be paid to the Employee in accordance with applicable employment standards legislation);

(i)a material adverse change in the Employee's Position as in effect immediately prior to a Change in Control. Such material adverse change shall mean a material diminution in the Employee's duties or authority or the assignment to the Employee of any duties or responsibilities which are

materially inconsistent with such Position. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Good Reason shall not be deemed to occur upon a change in the Employee's duties or responsibilities that is solely a result of the Company no longer being publicly traded;

(ii)a material reduction by the Company in the Employee's annual Base Salary as in effect immediately prior to a Change in Control;

(iii)a material failure by the Company to continue in effect any employee benefit program in which the Employee is participating at the time of a Change in Control other than as a result of the normal expiration of any such employee benefit program in accordance with its terms as in effect at the time of a Change in Control or replacement of such benefit program with a comparable program, or the taking of any action, or the failure to act, by the Company which would materially and adversely affect the Employee's continued participation in any such employee benefit program on at least as favorable a basis to the Employee as on the date of a Change in Control;

(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, to constitute Good Reason hereunder, the Employee must give notice to the Company within 30 days following the Employee's knowledge of an event constituting Good Reason describing the alleged failure or action by the Company in respect of the events set out in clauses (i) to (vi) directly above and advising the Company of the Employee's intention to terminate the Employee's employment for Good Reason. If the Employee fails to provide such notice within 30 days, such event shall not constitute Good Reason under this Agreement. Following receipt of such notice from the Employee, the Company shall then have 30 days to take any required corrective action to rectify or rescind such event (and if such event is so rectified or rescinded, such event shall not constitute Good Reason) and to notify the Employee in writing that it has completed such rectification or rescindment, or to notify the Employee that it denies the occurrence of such event.

(d)A notice of resignation for Good Reason in accordance with the foregoing will be deemed to have occurred within the twelve (12) month period following a Change in Control provided the Employee gives the required notice to the Company prior to the end of such twelve (12) month period.

(e)Recognizing the employment of the Employee by its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Company shall cause, and the Parent will make, an initial grant of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under its equity incentive plan and in accordance therewith, such number of RSUs to equal 750,000 RSUs pursuant to the terms and conditions of award agreements. RSUs will vest in accordance with the terms of the applicable Equity Plans and award agreements over a period of 5 years.

(f)The Employee will not participate in employee benefit plans (health, medical, dental, and other insurance benefits) from time to time in effect for similarly situated employees of the Company or the Parent, but shall instead be reimbursed for the cost of similar benefit plans in Australia, such reimbursement to not exceed US$10,000 annually. The Employee shall be responsible for sourcing and participating in such plans himself and should submit claims for reimbursement in accordance with Section 6 below.

(g)The Company will also reimburse 80% of the annual membership costs of the Employee in the Law Society of Ontario and the Law Society of British Columbia.

(h)The Company will make superannuation contributions for the Employee’s benefit at the minimum rate and on the minimum amounts that satisfies the Company’s statutory obligation with respect to the payment of superannuation and avoid any charge under the Superannuation Guarantee (Administration) Act 1992 (Cth) into:

(i)a superannuation fund of the Employee choice, provided that the fund and the Employee’s nomination complies with relevant legislation; or

(ii)an eligible fund of the Company’s choice if the Employee does not choose a fund.

5.1The Compensation paid under this clause compensates the Employee for:

(a)payments and entitlements for all hours worked; and

9.2The Employee may withdraw his consent provided herein at any time. The Employee acknowledges that if he withdraws his consent, his entitlement to certain employment benefits provided by the Company may be negatively affected and in the event of a sale of business, the acquiring organization may not be in a position to offer continued employment due to a lack of personal information on the Employee.

Such material adverse change shall mean a material diminution in the Employee's duties or authority or the assignment to the Employee of any duties or responsibilities which are materially inconsistent with such Position. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Good Reason shall not be deemed to occur upon a change in the Employee's duties or responsibilities that is solely a result of the Company no longer being publicly traded;

(h)Notwithstanding the foregoing, to constitute Good Reason hereunder, the Employee must give notice to the Company within 30 days following the Employee's knowledge of an event constituting Good Reason describing the alleged failure or action by the Company in respect of the events set out in clauses (i) to (vi) above and advising the Company of the Employee's intention to terminate the Employee's employment for Good Reason. If the Employee fails to provide such notice within 30 days, such event shall not constitute Good Reason under this Amended and Restated Agreement. Following receipt of such notice from the Employee, the Company shall then have 30 business days to take any required corrective action to rectify or rescind such event (and if such event is so rectified or rescinded, such event shall not constitute Good Reason) and to notify the Employee in writing that it has completed such rectification or rescindment, or to notify the Employee that it denies the occurrence of such event.

(i)A notice of resignation for Good Reason in accordance with the foregoing will be deemed to have occurred within the twelve (12) month period following a Change in Control provided the Employee gives the required notice to the Company prior to the end of such twelve (12) month period.

(III)after which at least a majority of the board of directors (or the analogous governing body) of the Successor Entity were Board members at the time of the Board’s approval of the execution of the initial agreement providing for such transaction; or

(iv)the date which is 10 business days prior to the completion of a liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the Parent.

11.2If the Employee is a director or other officer or manager of any of its subsidiary or affiliated companies, the Company is not obliged to ensure that the Employee remains a director or other officer or manager of any subsidiary or affiliate. The removal of the Employee as a director of a subsidiary or affiliate, or removal from that other office or management position will not amount to a breach of this Amended and Restated Agreement or constitute Good Reason or constitute grounds for termination with Cause.

11.3If the Employee is at any time not a director of any of its subsidiary or affiliated companies then the Employee shall not be entitled to and shall not hold himself out as a director and the removal of the term "Director" from his job title will not constitute a breach by the Company of this Amended and Restated Agreement.

11.4Upon the termination of the Employee's employment by the Company for any reason (unless the Company in writing requires the Employee not to do so) the Employee hereby agrees to resign from and vacate each and every office as director of any of its subsidiary or affiliated companies and every other office or management position which he may hold in any subsidiary or affiliated company to which he may have been appointed or elected, and for purposes hereof the Employee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally appoints any director of the Company or the company secretary of the Company as his agent or attorney to effect each such resignation.

11.5Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11.4, the Company may request the Employee to retain his office as a director of a subsidiary or affiliate notwithstanding the termination of his employment, in which case the Employee shall become a non-executive director of its subsidiary or affiliated companies and shall be entitled to receive compensation as a non-employee director of such subsidiary or affiliate.

11.6The Employee hereby indemnifies the Company (and their respective officers, managers and employees) in respect of any claims, losses, costs or expenses whatsoever (including indirect and consequential damages) which may be suffered or incurred by any of them arising out of or in connection with the Employee refusing for any reason whatsoever to resign from and/or vacate any office as a director or other position contemplated in Section 11.4 for purposes of having to have the Employee removed as a director of a subsidiary or affiliated company.

The Employee agrees not to use such information, directly or indirectly, for his own interests, or any interests other than those of the Company or the Parent, whether or not those interests conflict with the interests of the Company or the Parent during or after his employment by the Company. The Employee expressly acknowledges and agrees that all information relating to the Company and the Parent, whether financial, technical or otherwise shall, upon execution of this Amended and Restated Agreement and thereafter, as the case may be, be the sole property of the Company or the Company (as the case may be), whether arising before or after the execution of this Amended and Restated Agreement. The Employee expressly agrees not to divulge any of the foregoing information to any person, partnership, company or other legal entity or to assist in the disclosure or divulging of any such information, directly or indirectly, except as required by law or as otherwise authorized in writing by the Board. The provisions of Section 12 shall survive the termination of this Amended and Restated Agreement and the Employee’s employment.

12.2The Employee agrees that all documents of any nature pertaining to the activities of the Company or the Parent, including Confidential Information, in the Employee's possession now or at any time during the Employee's period of employment, are and shall be the property of the Company or the Parent (as the case may be) and that all such documents and copies of them shall be surrendered to the Company when requested by the Company.

13.2Employee agrees that the restrictions, including the duration, scope and geographic area for each, established under the covenants contained in this Section 13 are fair, reasonable and necessary in order to protect the legitimate interests of the Company and the Parent, that Employee is receiving adequate consideration under this Amended and Restated Agreement for such obligations, and that such obligations will not prevent Employee from earning a livelihood during the time periods covered by the restrictive covenants.

13.3In the event Employee has violated any of the covenants contained in this Section 13, the time period covered by the restrictive covenant shall be tolled during the period in which the violation was occurring.

13.4The Employee agrees that a breach by him or her of any of the covenants contained in this Section 13 would result in damages that could not adequately be compensated by monetary award. Accordingly, the Employee agrees that in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, in addition to all other remedies available at law, the Company will be entitled as a matter of right to seek a temporary or permanent injunction or other equitable relief against such breach or threatened breach from any court of competent jurisdiction, without the necessity of showing any actual damages or that money damages would not afford an adequate remedy, and without the necessity of posting any bond or other security.

13.5The Employee further agrees that a breach by him or her of any of the covenants contained in this Section 13 constitutes Cause to terminate the Employee’s employment.

Section 14Representations and Warranties

The Employee represents and warrants to the Company that the execution and performance of this Amended and Restated Agreement will not result in or constitute a default, breach or violation or an event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would be a default, breach or violation of any understanding, agreement or commitment, written or oral, express or implied, to which the Employee is currently a party or by which the Employee or Employee's property is currently bound.

Section 15Arbitration

The Parties agree to attempt to resolve all claims, causes of action, controversies, and disputes arising out of or in connection with this Amended and Restated Agreement by structured negotiation with the assistance of a mediator agreed to by the Parties. If the dispute cannot be settled within a period of thirty (30) days after the mediator has been appointed, or such longer period agreed to in writing by the Parties, the Parties agree to submit their Dispute to binding arbitration, with a hearing to take place in Phoenix, Arizona unless the Dispute is earlier dismissed or resolved, in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA”) Rules regarding Employment Disputes, subject to any conflicting provisions of this Amended and Restated Agreement which shall control, and pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act, by the Parties. If the Parties are unable to agree to the appointment of an arbitrator within fifteen (15) days of delivery of a request for arbitration by either party to the other, the Parties shall select the arbitrator from a panel of at least nine (9) arbitrators who have at least ten (10) years’ of experience as an arbitrator primarily handling employment law cases pursuant to AAA’s arbitrator selection procedures. Each party shall bear its own costs of legal representation and assistance. All other costs, including the fees and expenses of the mediator, the arbitrator and administrative fees and charges, shall be as awarded by the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive federal or state law applicable to the claims and the defenses asserted in arbitration, including applicable statute of limitations and any prerequisites to civil action recognized under applicable federal or state law (e.g., exhaustion of administrative remedies). The arbitrator, and not any court, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the validity, enforceability, formation, and interpretation of this Amended and Restated Agreement and the arbitrability of the Parties’ dispute. Each party shall have the right to file dispositive motions, and the arbitrator shall have the authority to adjudicate and dispose of any or all Disputes submitted for arbitration based on such dispositive motions and applicable substantive law. In the event an arbitration hearing is conducted, the arbitration hearing shall not last longer than five (5) business days unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the Parties. Each party shall have the right to file post-hearing briefs according to a briefing schedule to be established by the arbitrator. The arbitrators will render a decision within a reasonably prompt period after the completion of the hearing, which decision may include any award or remedy available under any applicable law, and may include an award of legal fees, expert witness costs, costs of arbitration, and interest as permissible under the controlling statute or law. The decision of the arbitrator will be final, binding, and conclusive upon the Parties. Each party will have the right to have the decision enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any Dispute in which a party seeks equitable relief may be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction; provided that any portion of such Dispute in which the party seeks monetary or other non-equitable relief must be submitted for arbitration as provided hereunder. Nothing in this clause 15 will prevent either party commencing proceedings in a court, commission or tribunal in Australia relating to the Employee’s statutory rights under the FW Act or other applicable legislation in Australia, where prior compliance with this clause would render the proceedings out of time.

Section 1Employment

Section 4Other Activities

4.1The Employee's employment hereunder shall be substantially full-time and exclusively for the benefit of the Company, except as permitted herein.

4.2During the term of this agreement, the Employee agrees not to undertake, or be engaged in the performance of, any work, services or other business activity (which does not include charitable or philanthropic endeavors that do not materially interfere with the Employee's employment hereunder), directly or indirectly, for any other person, firm, company, other legal entity or governmental agency or organization, with the exception of:

(a)the Employee's employment with the Company; and

(b)any other pre-existing arrangements in effect at the date of this Agreement that have been notified to the Board and agreed (“Grandfathered Arrangements”) but provided that any such Grandfathered Arrangements shall remain subject to the Company’s policies governing such arrangements and any changes that may occur from time to time,

unless it is determined by prior written approval of the Board or the CEO that such activities will not interfere with, or impede, in any significant manner the performance of Employee's duties in the Position, and further provided that:

(c)before the Employee can engage in any work, services or other business activity which involves the Employee owning or acquiring any interest in excess of five percent, directly or indirectly, in any mining or technology company or the rendering of any advice or service to another person, partnership or other legal entity or a joint venture engaged in the business of exploring for and/or mining minerals, the Employee must disclose full particulars thereof in writing to the Board and the CEO, and, within 15 days after the date of such disclosure, the Employee must receive from the Board or the CEO a decision that such activities by the Employee will not, in the opinion of the Board or the CEO, interfere or be in conflict with the Employee's performance of his/her duties to the Company hereunder. If a decision is not received from the Board or the CEO within such 15-day period, the activities will be deemed to interfere or be in conflict with the Employee's performance of his/her duties to the Company hereunder unless and until a contrary decision is received from the Board or the CEO, and

4.3The Employee shall refer to the Board and the CEO any and all facts, matters and transactions that may adversely affect the Employee's relationship with the Company or the Employee's ability to perform his/her duties, or in respect of which an actual or potential conflict of interest between the Employee and the Company has arisen or may arise, and the Employee shall not proceed with any such matter or transaction until the Board's approval therefor is obtained. For purposes of clarification, this provision is not intended to limit in any way the Employee's other fiduciary obligations to the Company that may arise in law or in equity.

4.4Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Employee acknowledges, covenants and agrees that under no circumstances will his/her provision of services in the Position involve or include, nor will the Employee be asked by any director or officer of the Company to engage in, any activities contrary to the Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act (Canada) or the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and any other similar legislation in the jurisdiction in which the Employee is employed or to whose laws the Employee may be subject.

4.5The Employee shall adhere to the Company's policies in effect from time to time.

Section 5Compensation

5.1In consideration of the performance by the Employee of his/her responsibilities and duties in the Position hereunder:

(a)Base Salary. The Company shall pay the Employee an annual base salary of Three Hundred and Seventy-Two Thousand Canadian Dollars (CAD$372,000) (the "Base Salary") per year. The Base Salary and all other forms of compensation payable hereunder are subject to deduction for all applicable taxes, payroll deductions and withholdings required by law and otherwise in accordance with the payroll practices of the Company for similarly situated employees of the Company.

(b)The Base Salary will be reviewed annually and, if increased or decreased, such increased or decreased amount shall be the Base Salary hereunder; provided however that the Base Salary may only be decreased by a total cumulative percentage of 15% over a one-year period as part of a general executive or company-wide reduction for cost savings or similar requirements, unless otherwise agreed by the Employee in advance and in writing.

(c)Short-Term Incentive Plan. The Employee will be eligible on an annual basis to receive a short term incentive award. The Employee’s short-term bonus target for 2023 is 75% of Base Salary ("Target Bonus"). The Employee’s Target Bonus will be reviewed by the Compensation Committee of the Board on an annual basis. The actual short term bonus awarded to the Employee (the “Short Term Bonus”), if any, may be less than or greater than the Target Bonus (and may be zero), and will be determined based upon performance criteria and targets established by the Board and the Compensation Committee on an annual basis, and the achievement and/or satisfaction of such criteria and targets, as reasonably evaluated in the discretion of the Company. The payment of a Short Term Bonus and quantum of such bonus is not guaranteed in any year or part year of employment, and the payment and quantum of any Short Term Bonus in one year does not obligate the Company to provide a similar or any Short Term Bonus in any other year of employment. Any Short Term Bonus payment made to the Employee is inclusive of statutory requirements, including vacation pay.

(d)The Employee must be actively employed by the Company or on a statutory or company-approved leave of absence on the payment date for a Short Term Bonus to be entitled to payment of a Short Term Bonus in respect of that year. For the purpose of this Agreement, “actively employed” means that the Employee is employed and actively performing employment duties for the Company or is on vacation and, for certainty, the Employee is considered actively employed during any minimum period of statutory notice of termination (or pay in lieu) required under applicable employment standards legislation (but not during any other period of notice of termination or pay in lieu, including under the common law). If the Employee is on a statutory or company-approved leave of absence during, or is only actively employed by the Company for, part of the year to which a Short Term Bonus relates, any Short Term Bonus awarded to the Employee will be subject to proration based on the portion of the year the employee was actively employed.

(e)In the event the Company adopts a short-term incentive plan, the Employee’s entitlements to a short-term incentive award will be governed by such plan.

(f)Long-Term Incentive Plan. Commencing in 2024, the Employee will be eligible to participate in the Company’s long-term incentive plan in accordance with the terms of such plan, as amended from time to time (the “LTIP”). The Employee’s long-term bonus target for 2023 will be 100% of Base Salary. The Employee’s long-term bonus target will be reviewed by the Compensation Committee of the Board on an annual basis. Any long-term incentive awards granted to the Employee will be governed by the LTIP and any applicable grant agreements governing such awards (each, a “Grant Agreement”).

(g)Stock Option Grant. Effective as soon as practicable upon execution of this Agreement and subject to Board approval, the Company will make an initial grant of stock options ("Options") to the Employee under the LTIP and in accordance therewith, such number of Options to equal 100,000 with a strike price of not less than $11.75 USD per share or at least equal to the fair market value per share on the date of grant if the market value is greater than $11.75 USD per share on the date of grants. The Options will be governed by the terms of the LTIP and corresponding stock option grant agreement.

(h)Benefits. The Employee will be eligible to participate in employee benefit plans (including health, medical, dental, and other insurance benefits) from time to time in effect for similarly situated employees of the Company. The Employee's participation will be subject to the terms of the applicable plan documents and generally applicable policies of the Company, in each case, as amended from time to time. Employee’s health and medical benefits coverage shall begin on the effective date of this Agreement. The Employee acknowledges that the Company may amend or terminate any employee benefit plans from time, provided that the benefits provided to the Employee following any such amendment or termination will be substantially similar in the aggregate to those provided to the Employee prior to such amendment or termination.

Section 6Expenses

The Company will reimburse the Employee for any and all reasonable and documented expenses actually and necessarily incurred by the Employee in connection with the performance of his/her duties under this Agreement, including reasonable travel and lodging expenses associated with travel to Phoenix, Arizona and/or any other company project sites in the performance of the Employee’s duties, in accordance with the policies of the Company in effect from time to time. The

Employee will furnish the Company with an itemized account of his/her expenses in such form or forms as may reasonably be required by the Company and at such times or intervals as may reasonably be required by the Company.

Section 7Vacation

7.1The Employee will be entitled to accrue with service paid vacation of twenty-five (25) days (5 weeks) within each calendar year period. This vacation must be taken at such times that do not adversely compromise the Employee's performance of his/her duties under this Agreement.

7.2Vacation must be taken in the year in respect of which it is earned; provided, however, that subject to appliable employment standards legislation, the Employee may carry forward a maximum of ten (10) days' (2 weeks’) paid vacation from one entitlement year to the next. Any such vacation carried forward must be taken by 30 June of the subsequent year, after which it will be forfeited unless otherwise required under applicable employment standards legislation. Unused vacation that is not carried forward pursuant to this Section, to the extent in excess of the Employee’s entitlements under applicable employment standards legislation, will be forfeited.

7.3All other responsibilities and rights (if any) of the Employee relating to accrual of vacation benefits, requesting and using vacation benefits, and receipt of payment for accrued, unused vacation benefits upon separation from employment shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the Company's applicable policies, practices, and procedures, subject to applicable employment standards legislation.

Section 8Indemnity

The Company shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Employee from any and all claims, damages, losses or costs to the extent provided by applicable law and the Company's organizational and similar documents, including but not limited to, those relating to loss or damage to property, or injury to, or death of any person or persons arising from or out of the Employee's performance of his/her obligations under this Agreement.

Section 9Consent to Use Personal Information

9.1The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company has the right to collect, use and disclose the terms and conditions of his/her employment and any other identifying personal information required to be disclosed for reporting or business purposes or otherwise by law, including:

(a)ensuring that he/she is paid for his/her services to the Company;

(b)administering any benefits to which he/she is or may become entitled to, including bonuses, medical, dental, disability and life insurance benefits, and/or annual bonuses and long-term incentive securities.

(c)compliance with any regulatory reporting and withholding requirements relating to his/her employment; and

(d)in the event of a sale or transfer of all or part of the shares or assets of the Company, disclosing to any potential acquiring organization solely for the purposes of determining the value of the Company and its assets and liabilities and to evaluate the Employee's position in the Company. If the Employee's information is disclosed to any potential acquiring organization, the Company will require the potential acquiring organization to agree to use the information solely for the purpose of evaluating the Company and to protect the privacy of Employee's information in a manner that is consistent with any policy of the Company dealing with privacy that may be in effect from time to time and/or any applicable law that may be in effect from time to time.

Section 10Termination

10.1This Agreement and the Employee's employment may be terminated as follows:

(a)By Employee on Voluntary Resignation: Upon receipt by the Company of the Employee's resignation, in writing, which shall be provided not less than three (3) months prior to the effective date of resignation. Employee agrees to faithfully perform and discharge all of his/her duties and responsibilities under this Agreement throughout the notice period until the effective date of his/her employment termination. At any time after receiving notice of Employee's resignation, the Company shall have the sole option to relieve Employee of his/her duties and/or to restrict Employee from accessing Company facilities or systems, communicating with Company employees or third parties about work related matters, attending work-related events, or otherwise conducting business on Company's behalf (and the Employee acknowledges that if the Company exercises its rights in this regard, it will not constitute termination of the Employee’s employment or constructive dismissal). In all cases, the Employee will continue to be an employee throughout the notice period until the effective date of termination and will receive from the Company all compensation owing under this Agreement through the effective date of resignation. The Employee’s entitlements with respect to any outstanding awards under the LTIP shall be determined in accordance with the LTIP and applicable Grant Agreements.

(b)On Death or Disability of Employee: Automatically on the death of the Employee or upon termination of this Agreement due to frustration of contract by reason of Disability.

For the purposes of this agreement, “Disability” shall mean: the incapacitation of Employee by bodily injury, illness or disease so as to be prevented thereby from engaging in the performance of the Employee's duties and such incapacity will, in the opinion of a qualified physician, be permanent and continuous during the foreseeable future. In these circumstances, the Employee (or his/her estate) shall be entitled to receive as full and sole compensation in discharge of the Company's obligations to the Employee under statute, this Agreement and common law:

(ii)notwithstanding Section 5.1(d), payment of a Short Term Bonus for the year in which the termination date occurs, calculated in accordance with Section 5.1(c), prorated for the Employee’s period of active employment in that year and payable at the same time Short Term Bonuses are paid to other employees of the Company;

(iii)treatment of any outstanding awards under the LTIP in accordance with the LTIP and applicable Grant Agreements.

(c)By the Company without Cause: By the Company at any time, and for any reason whatsoever upon providing the Employee with (i) three (3) months’ advance written notice of termination or pay in lieu thereof (or some combination thereof), in the Company’s sole discretion (as set out in paragraphs 10.1(d) and 10.1(e) below) and (ii) the additional payments and benefits set out in paragraph 10.1(f) below.

(d)For any period of advance written notice of termination provided by the Company pursuant to Section 10.1(c), the Employee agrees to faithfully perform and discharge all of his/her duties and responsibilities under this Agreement throughout the notice period until the effective date of his/her employment termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have the sole option to, at any time after delivering advance notice of termination, relieve Employee of his/her duties and/or to restrict Employee from accessing Company facilities or systems, communicating with Company employees or third parties about work-related matters, attending work-related events, or otherwise conducting business on Company's behalf. In such case, the Employee will continue to be an employee throughout the notice period until the effective date of termination and shall be entitled to all compensation owing under this Agreement (including continuation of any Employee benefit plans) until the effective termination date.

(e)For any period of pay in lieu of notice provided by the Company pursuant to Section 10.1(c), the Employee’s entitlement to pay in lieu of notice shall be calculated at the Employee’s then-current Base Salary rate, subject to any greater entitlements under applicable employment standards legislation. To the extent required under applicable employment standards legislation, all of the Employee’s benefit plans will be continued for the minimum period so required.

(f)In addition to the foregoing, following the Employee’s effective termination date, the Employee will receive the following, as full and sole compensation in discharge of the Company's obligations to the Employee under statute, this Agreement and common law:

(i)the Accrued Obligations together with any obligations accrued and then owing under the Company's employee benefit plans;

(ii)a lump sum cash payment, less applicable withholdings, equal to 1.5 times Employee's annual Base Salary at the rate in effect as at the termination date and 1.5 times the Target Bonus for the year in which termination of employment occurs, which the Parties agree shall fully satisfy any Short Term Bonus entitlements or obligations pursuant to Section 5.1(c) - (e) hereof, payable on the forty-fifth (45th) day, or next succeeding business day if the 45th day is not a business day, following Employee's separation from service (provided, however, that any statutory entitlements will be paid to the Employee in accordance with applicable employment standards legislation);

(iii)treatment of any outstanding awards under the LTIP in accordance with the LTIP and applicable Grant Agreements.

The payments and benefits provided in paragraph 10.1(f)(ii), to the extent in excess of the Employee’s entitlements under applicable employment standards legislation, are contingent upon the Employee's execution of a full and final release in favour of the Company. For certainty, in no case shall the Employee’s entitlements on termination without cause be less than the Employee’s entitlements under applicable employment standards legislation (and if the Employee’s statutory entitlements exceed the payments and benefits set out herein, the Company will provide the Employee with such statutory entitlements in substitution for the Employee’s entitlements herein).

(g)For greater certainty, Sections 10.1(c)-(f) shall not apply to a termination without cause following a Change in Control under the circumstances provided for in Section 10.2(a).

(h)By the Company with Cause: The Company may terminate this Agreement, and Employee's employment hereunder, for Cause immediately upon written notice to Employee. In these circumstances, the Employee will be entitled to receive as full and sole compensation in discharge of the Company's obligations to the Employee under statue, this Agreement and common law, the Accrued Obligations together with any rights under the Company's employee benefit plans, including equity or equity-based compensation plans, which will be governed solely by the terms of such plans and, if and only to the extent applicable, any other minimum standards payments and benefits to which the Employee may be entitled under applicable employment standards legislation.

(i)For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" shall be deemed to exist if any of the following circumstances exist, as determined by the Board, regardless of the timing of the precipitating events:

(i)Employee's willful failure to substantially perform his/her or his/her duties and responsibilities to the Company;

(ii)Employee's violation of a Company policy, after receiving thirty (30) days written notice from the Company of the precise policy and the Employee's conduct alleged to violate the policy, and Employee has failed to cure the violation within the 30-day notice period (provided, however, that no advance notice shall be required if the violation is of such a serious nature and degree so as to be incompatible with continued employment);

(iii)Employee's commission of any act of fraud, embezzlement, misappropriation, breach of fiduciary duty or duty of loyalty, dishonesty or any other intentional act of misconduct that has caused or is reasonably expected to result in material injury to the Company;

(iv)Employee has been convicted of or pled guilty or nolo contendere to a crime that constitutes a felony (or local law equivalent) or an indictable or hybrid offence or any crime or offence involving moral turpitude, if such crime or offence is (A) work-related, (B) impairs Employee's ability to perform services for the Company, or (C) results in reputational or financial harm to the Company;

(v)the unauthorized use or disclosure by Employee of any proprietary information or trade secrets of the Company, or any other party to whom Employee owes an obligation of nondisclosure as a result of his/her employment with the Company;

(vi)Employee's breach of any of his/her material obligations under any written agreement or covenant with the Company; or

(vii)the Employee has committed any act which results in either loss or damage to the Company or prejudice to its business standing or reputation, including any social media post or public comment made on the Internet or otherwise, or through the making of any disparaging comment or remark in any public forum or setting, provided, nothing herein prohibits Employee from making truthful statements protected by any applicable law.

(j)Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a termination for Cause the Employee's rights and entitlements with respect to any outstanding award under the LTIP shall be governed in accordance with the terms of the LTIP and applicable Grant Agreements.

10.2Upon a Change in Control.

(a)If a Change in Control occurs and, at any time during the twelve (12) month period following such Change in Control, either (i) there occurs a termination of the Employee's employment by the Company, other than for Cause, or (ii) the Employee resigns employment for Good Reason the Employee shall be entitled to receive as full and sole compensation in discharge of the Company's obligations to the Employee under statue, this Agreement and common law:

(i)the Accrued Obligations together with any rights under the Company's employee benefit plans;

(ii)a lump sum cash payment, less applicable withholdings, equal to: eighteen (18) months of Employee's annual Base Salary (at the rate in effect as at the termination date or, if the Employee’s Base Salary was materially reduced following the Change in Control, at the rate in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control); plus one (1) additional month of Base Salary for each full year of service after the third (3rd) full year of service (running from the Continuous Service Date) up a maximum of twenty-four (24) months’ annual Base Salary; together with 150% of the Target Bonus for the year in which termination of employment occurs, which the Parties agree shall fully satisfy any Short Term Bonus entitlements or obligations pursuant to Section 5.1(c) - (e) hereof, payable on the forty-fifth (45th) day, or next succeeding business day if the 45th day is not a business day, following Employee's separation from service (provided, however, that any statutory entitlements will be paid to the Employee in accordance with applicable employment standards legislation);

(iii)continuation of any employee benefit plans for the minimum period (if any) required under applicable employment standards legislation; and

(iv)treatment of any outstanding awards under the LTIP in accordance with the LTIP and applicable Grant Agreements.

The payments and benefits provided in paragraph 10.2(a)(ii), to the extent in excess of the Employee’s entitlements (if any) under applicable employment standards legislation, are contingent upon the Employee's execution of a full and final release in favour of the Company. For certainty, in no case shall the Employee’s entitlements on termination following a Change in Control be less than the Employee’s entitlements under applicable employment standards legislation (and if the Employee’s statutory entitlements exceed the payments and benefits set out herein, the Company will provide the Employee with such statutory entitlements in substitution for the Employee’s entitlements herein).

(b)For purposes of this Section 10.2, "Good Reason" means any of the following events, unless the Employee gives his/her express written consent thereto:

(i)a material adverse change in the Employee's Position as in effect immediately prior to a Change in Control. Such material adverse change shall mean a material diminution in the Employee's duties or authority or the assignment to the Employee of any duties or responsibilities which are materially inconsistent with such Position. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Good Reason shall not be deemed to occur upon a change in the Employee's duties or responsibilities that is solely a result of the Company no longer being publicly traded;

(ii)a material reduction by the Company in the Employee's annual Base Salary as in effect immediately prior to a Change in Control;

(iii)a material failure by the Company to continue in effect any employee benefit program in which the Employee is participating at the time of a Change in Control other than as a result of the normal expiration of any such employee benefit program in accordance with its terms as in effect at the time of a Change in Control or replacement of such benefit program with a comparable program, or the taking of any action, or the failure to act, by the Company which would materially and adversely affect the Employee's continued participation in any such employee benefit program on at least as favorable a basis to the Employee as on the date of a Change in Control;

(iv)the Company requiring the Employee to be based in a location more than 50 miles from where the Employee is based at the time of a Change in Control and except for required travel on the Company's business to an extent substantially consistent with the Employee's business travel obligations in the ordinary course of business immediately prior to the Change in Control;

(v)the Company repudiating or breaching any of its material obligations under this Agreement; or

(vi)the Company requiring the Employee to report to a person of lesser authority or standing than that set forth in Section 1.1; provided that a general change in overall reporting structure bona fide entered into by the Company in the interests of improved management of its business and not limited to the individual Employee, shall not be a change in reporting responsibilities as contemplated by this clause.

(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, to constitute Good Reason hereunder, the Employee must give notice to the Company within 30 days following the Employee's knowledge of an event constituting Good Reason describing the alleged failure or action by the Company in respect of the events set out in clauses (i) to (vi) directly above and advising the Company of the Employee's intention to terminate the Employee's employment for Good Reason. If the Employee fails to provide such notice within 30 days, such event shall not constitute Good Reason under this Agreement. Following receipt of such notice from the Employee, the Company shall then have 30 days to take any required corrective action to rectify or rescind such event (and if such event is so rectified or rescinded, such event shall not constitute Good Reason) and to notify the Employee in writing that it has completed such rectification or rescindment, or to notify the Employee that it denies the occurrence of such event.

(d)A notice of resignation for Good Reason in accordance with the foregoing will be deemed to have occurred within the twelve (12) month period following a Change in Control provided the Employee gives the required notice to the Company prior to the end of such twelve (12) month period.

(e)The payments provided for in paragraph (a) under this Section 10.2 shall be inclusive of the Employee's entitlement to notice and severance pay at common law or by statute.

(II)after which no person or group beneficially owns voting securities representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity; provided however that no person or group shall be treated for purposes of this Section as beneficially owning 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity solely as a result of the voting power held in the Company prior to the consummation of the transaction; and

(III)after which at least a majority of the board of directors (or the analogous governing body) of the Successor Entity were Board members at the time of the Board's approval of the execution of the initial agreement providing for such transaction; or

(iv)the date which is 10 business days prior to the completion of a liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

10.3The Employee agrees that the notice, pay in lieu of notice (or a combination thereof), together with the payments and benefits set out in this Agreement, including as set out in Sections 10.1(f) or 10.2 shall be in full and final settlement of any and all actions, causes of actions, suits, claims, demands and entitlements whatsoever which the Employee has or may have, whether pursuant to statute, common law or otherwise, against the Company and any of its directors, officers, employees, representatives, successors and assigns, arising out of the Employee's hiring, employment and the termination of the Employee's employment or this Agreement and the Employee expressly waives any and all entitlement to reasonable notice or pay in lieu thereof pursuant to common law.

11.2If the Employee is a director or other officer or manager of the Company or of any of its subsidiary companies, the Company is not obliged to ensure that the Employee remains a director or other officer or manager of the Company or any subsidiary. The removal of the Employee as a director of the Company by reason of election by the Company's shareholders, or removal of the Employee as a director of a subsidiary, or removal from that other office or management position will not amount to a breach of this Agreement or constitute Good Reason or constitute grounds for termination with Cause.

11.3If the Employee is at any time not a director of the Company or of any of its subsidiary companies, then the Employee shall not be entitled to and shall not hold himself/herself out as a director and the removal of the term "Director" from the Employee's job title will not constitute a breach by the Company of this Agreement.

11.4Upon the termination of the Employee's employment by the Company for any reason (unless the Company in writing requires the Employee not to do so) the Employee hereby agrees to resign from and vacate each and every office as

director of the Company or of any of its subsidiary companies and every other office or management position which he/she may hold in the Company or a subsidiary company to which he/she may have been appointed or elected, and for purposes hereof the Employee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally appoints any director of the Company or the company secretary of the Company as his/her agent or attorney to effect each such resignation.

11.6The Employee hereby indemnifies the Company (and their respective officers, managers and employees) in respect of any claims, losses, costs or expenses whatsoever (including indirect and consequential damages) which may be suffered or incurred by any of them arising out of or in connection with the Employee refusing for any reason whatsoever to resign from and/or vacate any office as a director or other position contemplated in Section 11.4 for purposes of having to have the Employee removed as a director of the Company or a subsidiary company.

For the avoidance of doubt, in no event will the Company have an obligation to call a special meeting of shareholders to elect such Alternative Ma’aden Designated Nominee.

ARTICLE III TOP-UP RIGHT

3.1.At any time and from time to time after the Closing, the Company agrees that:

3.1.1.Ma’aden (directly or through another Ma’aden Party) shall have the right (the “Top-up Right”), pursuant to Section 3.1.2 or Section 3.1.3 below, to subscribe for and to be issued (a “Top-up Subscription”) up to such number of Common Shares that will allow the Ma’aden Parties to maintain or acquire up to the Existing Ownership Threshold in connection with any new issuances of Common Shares by the Company (a “Dilution Event”), including:

3.1.1.1.any issuance of Common Shares to any employee of the Company pursuant to any equity incentive plan, agreement or arrangement approved by the Board;

3.1.1.2.any issuance of Common Shares upon the exercise or vesting of securities issued in connection with any equity incentive plan, agreement or arrangement approved by the Board; or

3.1.1.3.any issuance of Common Shares as consideration in connection with a merger, acquisition, consolidation, business combination, purchase of the capital stock or assets of, or transaction or series of transactions with, a third party.

3.1.2.The Top-up Right shall be exercisable upon the first occurrence after any such Dilution Event that the Company issues Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) as part of an equity financing transaction in which such securities are issued by the Company for cash (an “Equity Financing Transaction”), and not upon the occurrence of the Dilution Event triggering the Top-up Right unless the Dilution Event is such Equity Financing Transaction, in accordance with the following provisions:

3.1.2.1.Beginning on the Effective Date until the date on which the Top-up Right terminates in accordance with Section 3.1.6 below (the “Top-up Right Period”), the Company will provide notice to Ma’aden at least five Business Days prior to the date on which the Company expects to close any Equity Financing Transaction (an “Equity Financing Transaction Notice”), which notice shall state the number of Common Shares being offered in the Equity Financing Transaction, the number of Common Shares currently issued and outstanding, the expected date of closing of such Equity Financing Transaction and the proposed price per Common Share being offering in the Equity Financing Transaction.

3.1.2.2.Within 20 Business Days following the closing of the Equity Financing Transaction as set forth in the Equity Financing Transaction Notice, Ma’aden (directly or through another Ma’aden Party) shall notify the Company if it wishes to exercise its Top-up Right in connection with such Equity Financing Transaction by delivering a Top-up Right Exercise Notice, which notice shall state the number of Common Shares for which Ma’aden (directly or through another Ma’aden Party) proposes to subscribe (the “Top-up Shares”) and the proposed aggregate purchase price for such Common Shares (the “Top-up Share Price”) based on the price per Common Share being offered or paid in the Equity Financing Transaction. If Ma’aden (directly or through another Ma’aden Party) fails to deliver a Top-up Right Exercise Notice within the period described in this Section 3.1.2.2, Ma’aden will be deemed to have irrevocably waived its Top-up Right with respect to such Dilution Event, and the Existing Ownership Threshold will be reduced in accordance with the terms of Section 3.1.5 below.

3.1.2.3.Within 10 Business Days of the Company’s receipt of the Top-up Right Exercise Notice and contingent upon the consummation of the Equity Financing Transaction described in the Equity Financing Transaction Notice in response to which such Top-up Right Exercise Notice was delivered,

the Parties will enter into a subscription agreement with respect to such Top-up Shares (a “Top-up Subscription Agreement”) in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which Top-up Subscription Agreement shall, subject to an extension pursuant to Section 3.1.4 in the event of a Bona Fide Legal Impediment, set forth a closing date for purchase and delivery of the Top-up Shares within five Business Days of the date of the Top-up Subscription Agreement or such shorter period of time as required pursuant to applicable regulations.

3.1.3.In addition to any rights under Section 3.1.2, in the event that any Dilution Event results in the reduction of the Ma’aden Ownership Percentage by an aggregate (taking into account any prior Dilution Events or exercises of the Top-up Right) of 2.0% or more below the Existing Ownership Threshold (the “Compelled Top-up Trigger” and, the circumstances triggering such Compelled Top-Up Trigger, the “Trigger Effective Time”), the Company shall provide Ma’aden written notice of such Compelled Top-up Trigger and the Trigger Effective Time within five business days of the Trigger Effective time, and Ma’aden (directly or through another Ma’aden Party) shall have the right (the “Compelled Top-up Right”) to exercise its Top-up Right either (i) at the first Equity Financing Transaction occurring within 12 months of the Trigger Effective Time or, (ii) if no Equity Financing Transaction occurs within 12 months of the Trigger Effective Time, at any time following the 12-month anniversary of the Trigger Effective Time until the next occurring Equity Financing Transaction, in accordance with the following provisions:

3.1.3.1. In the case of clause (i) of Section 3.1.3 above, the Compelled Top-up Right must be exercised in accordance with Sections 3.1.2.1–3.1.2.3 above.

3.1.3.2.In the case of clause (ii) of Section 3.1.3 above:

3.1.3.2.1.Ma’aden (directly or through another Ma’aden Party) must notify the Company of its decision to exercise its Compelled Top-up Right by delivering a Top-up Right Exercise Notice, which notice shall state the number of Top-up Shares for which Ma’aden (directly or through another Ma’aden Party) proposes to subscribe and the proposed Top-up Share Price based on the Market Value of the Common Shares as of the date of such notice. If Ma’aden (directly or through another Ma’aden Party) fails to deliver such Top-up Right Exercise Notice within 20 Business Days of the closing of the applicable Equity Financing Transaction, Ma’aden will be deemed to have irrevocably waived its Top-up Right with respect to the applicable Compelled Top-up Trigger.

3.1.3.2.2.Within 10 Business Days of delivery of the notice in accordance with Section 3.1.3.2.1 above, the Parties will enter into a Top-up Subscription Agreement in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which Top-up Subscription Agreement shall, subject to an extension pursuant to Section 3.1.4 in the event of a Bona Fide Legal Impediment, set forth a closing date for purchase and delivery of the Top-up Shares within five Business Days of the date of such Top-up Subscription Agreement or such shorter period of time as required pursuant to applicable regulations.

3.1.4.During the Top-up Right Period, from the date on which a Dilution Event triggering the Top-up Right or Compelled Top-up Right occurs until the later of (a) expiration of the first opportunity of Ma’aden (directly or through another Ma’aden Party) to exercise its Top-up Right or Compelled Top-up Right pursuant to Section 3.1.2 or Section 3.1.3 above and (b) consummation of a related Top-up Subscription, as applicable (the “Top-up Right Expiration” and, such period, the “Top-up Interim Period”), no Ownership-Based Rights will be lost by virtue of such Dilution Event. In addition, in the event of a Bona Fide Legal Impediment, the Top-up Interim Period shall be extended until the earlier of (i) the resolution of the Bona Fide Legal Impediment and (ii) the date that is 12 months from the date of the Top-up Right Expiration; provided, however, that Ma’aden (directly or through another Ma’aden Party) must provide written notice to the Company, or the Company to Ma’aden, as applicable, prior to the Top-up Right Expiration, which notice shall describe the Bona Fide Legal Impediment claimed and the efforts being undertaken to clear such impediment, and Ma’aden (directly or through another Ma’aden Party) and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to resolve and clear such impediment as promptly as practicable. If such impediment has not been cleared and the Top-up Right duly exercised in accordance with the terms of this Article III by the date that is 12 months from the date of the Top-up Right Expiration, the Top-up Interim Period will be deemed to have ended and Ma’aden will not be entitled to exercise a Top-up Right until the Company’s next Equity Financing Transaction or as otherwise permitted by Section 3.1.3.

3.1.5.In the event that an Equity Financing Transaction occurs within 12 months of a Dilution Event and Ma’aden (directly or through another Ma’aden Party) fails to exercise its Top-up Right in accordance with Section 3.1.2 above, or fails to exercise its Compelled Top-up Right in accordance with Section 3.1.3 above, then the Existing Ownership Threshold will be reduced to the level of the Ma’aden Ownership Percentage as of the effective time of the applicable Dilution Event triggering such Top-up Right or Compelled Top-up Right (excluding any purchases by any Ma’aden Party of Common Shares or securities convertible into Common Shares from any third party on such date) (the “Reduced Ownership Threshold”), the Reduced Ownership

Threshold will replace the Existing Ownership Threshold for the purposes of this Agreement; provided that in the event that a Bona Fide Legal Impediment has not been cleared pursuant to Section 3.1.4 and the Top-up Right duly exercised in accordance with the terms of this Article III by the date that is 12 months from the date of the Top-up Right Expiration, no adjustment will be made to the Existing Ownership Threshold pursuant to this Section 3.1.5. Following such reduction of the Existing Ownership Threshold to the Reduced Ownership Threshold any subsequent Dilution Event will permit Ma’aden (directly or through another Ma’aden Party) to exercise its Top-up Right only for that number of Common Shares that will allow the Ma’aden Parties to maintain or acquire up to the Reduced Ownership Threshold.

3.1.6.The Top-up Right will remain in effect until the earlier of:

3.1.6.1.the five-year anniversary of the Closing (the “Initial Period”), but only if within such Initial Period the Ma’aden Parties have (i) failed on two separate occurrences to exercise the Top-up Right or Compelled Top-up Right, subject to an extension pursuant to Section 3.1.4 in the event of a Bona Fide Legal Impediment, or (ii) sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of any Ma’aden Shares (other than to another Ma’aden Party or to the PIF);

The Company shall notify each Selling Investor promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement of which the Company is aware.

5.5.2.Each Selling Investor shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the U.S. Securities Act and Section 20 of the U.S. Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling Persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, to the extent arising out of or based solely upon: any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus or supplement thereto, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading (i) to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by such Selling Investor to the Company expressly for inclusion in such Registration Statement or such Prospectus or (ii) to the extent that such information relates to such Selling Investor or such controlling Person or its proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and approved in writing by such Selling Investor or such controlling Person expressly for use in a Registration Statement, such Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto.

5.5.3.The indemnification and contribution provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director, manager, agent, representative or controlling Person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of Registrable Securities and the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

5.6.Removal of Legend. During any periods that a Registration Statement registering the resale of the Registrable Securities is effective or when the Ma’aden Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or may be sold without restriction under Rule 144, the Company shall, at its expense, use reasonable best efforts to cause the Company’s transfer agent to remove any restrictive legends on any Ma’aden Shares to be sold by a Ma’aden Party following the Company’s receipt of notice from such Ma’aden Party of any proposed sale of such securities and delivery by such Ma’aden Party to the Company and the transfer agent of any documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the transfer agent (including customary representations in connection with such sale and legend removal). After a Registration Statement has become

effective or the applicable Ma’aden Party or its permitted assigns have held the Registrable Securities for one year, if the book-entry account of such Registrable Securities still bears the notation of the restrictive legend referred to in the Subscription Agreement, the Company agrees, upon the written request of the applicable Ma’aden Party or permitted assignee, to take all steps necessary to effect the removal of the legend described in the Subscription Agreement from the Purchased Shares as promptly as practicable, and the Company shall bear all costs associated therewith, regardless of whether the request is made in connection with a sale or otherwise, so long as the applicable Ma’aden Party or its permitted assigns provide to the Company any information the Company deems reasonably necessary to determine that the legend is no longer required under the U.S. Securities Act or applicable state laws, including (if there is no such Registration Statement) a certification that the holder of the Registrable Securities is not an Affiliate of the Company (and a covenant to inform the Company if it should thereafter become an Affiliate and to consent to the notation of an appropriate restriction) and regarding the length of time the Registrable Securities have been held by such holder.

6.1.Restriction on Transfer. For five years following the Closing, without the prior written consent of the Board, which consent may be withheld by the Board in its sole discretion, no Ma’aden Party shall Transfer (except to a wholly-owned Subsidiary of Ma’aden) any Common Shares acquired pursuant to the Subscription Agreement or the Top-up Right if as a result of and upon such Transfer the purchaser of such Ma’aden Shares (together with any Affiliates or group members or other concert parties) would Beneficially Own greater than 9.9% of the Common Shares and is either (i) a mining company or (ii) a State owned enterprise (“SOE”) or an entity that is controlled by an SOE (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any sovereign wealth fund, sovereign investment fund or social wealth fund) except, in each case, the PIF. The foregoing restriction shall not apply to any open-market disposition over the NYSE American or TSX in which the buyer or the trade is not pre-arranged.

6.2.Discontinued Disposition. By its acquisition of Registrable Securities, Ma’aden agrees that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 5.2.1(i) and (ii), Ma’aden will, or will cause any other Ma’aden Party holding Ma’aden Shares to, forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities under a Registration Statement until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus (as it may have been supplemented or amended) may be resumed.

The Company shall provide notice to Ma’aden at least five business days prior to the closing of such Equity Raise, and the procedures set forth in Section 3.1.2 and Exhibit A will apply mutatis mutandis to Ma’aden’s exercise of its Equity Participation Right. In the event that the securities issued in an Equity Raise are registered pursuant to applicable Securities Laws or the Company grants registration rights to any purchaser in an Equity Raise and, in each case, a Ma’aden Party exercises its Equity Participation Right with respect to such Equity Raise, the Company shall register the securities issued to such Ma’aden Party or grant registration rights to such Ma’aden Party, in each case, on the same terms applicable to such Equity Raise.

VALUATION

1.INDEPENDENT EXPERT DETERMINATION

Except as the Shareholders may otherwise agree on a case-by-case basis, the “Fair Market Value” of a Shareholder’s Equity Interest shall as required be determined as follows.

9.1Each Shareholder shall select an independent expert (a “Valuation Expert”). The costs of each Valuation Expert shall be borne by the Defaulting Shareholder. For the purpose of this Schedule 4, “Valuation Expert” shall mean the mining section of any internationally recognized investment bank or accountancy firm with mining valuation expertise. Each Valuation Expert shall calculate the Fair Market Value of the relevant Equity Interest in accordance with Paragraph 1.2 and shall submit a report of its valuation of the relevant Equity Interest to the Shareholders within twenty (20) days of the date of the Default Notice.

9.2If the variance in the Fair Market Value of the relevant Equity Interest as calculated by each Valuation Expert is fifteen percent (15%) or less, then the mathematical average of the two (2) valuations shall be calculated and the resultant amount shall be the final Fair Market Value of the relevant Equity Interest and shall be binding on the Shareholders.

9.3If the variance in the Fair Market Value of the relevant Equity Interest as calculated by each Valuation Expert is greater than fifteen percent (15%), the Shareholders shall jointly appoint a third Valuation Expert. If the Shareholders are unable to agree on a third Valuation Expert it shall be appointed by the auditors to the Company. Irrespective of whether it is selected by agreement or by the auditors, the third Valuation Expert shall be appointed by or deemed to be appointed by both Shareholders. The costs of the third Valuation Expert shall be borne by the Defaulting Shareholder.

9.4The third Valuation Expert shall conduct an independent review of the reports submitted by each of the two prior Valuation Experts and shall calculate the Fair Market Value of the relevant Equity Interest.

9.5The Fair Market Value of the relevant Equity Interest as calculated by the third Valuation Expert shall be the final Fair Market Value of the relevant Equity Interest and shall be binding on the Shareholders. The Valuation Expert shall act as expert and not as arbitrator.

2.VALUATION CRITERIA

Each of the Valuation Experts shall apply the following valuation criteria and principles. The Fair Market Value of Equity Interest shall be the price at which a willing seller would sell and a willing buyer would buy having full knowledge of the facts, in an arm’s-length transaction without time constraints, and without being under any compulsion to buy or sell. The Fair Market Value of the relevant Equity Interest may give effect to any discount for a minority interest or premium for a majority interest. In determining Fair Market Value of the relevant Equity Interest, the Valuation Expert shall value the Company on a going concern basis, taking into account the then existing market conditions, the Company’s net assets other than:

2.1 the TyphoonTM Units;

2.2Land Access Rights relating to a Designated Project in respect of which a Shareholder has elected to proceed on a sole risk basis in accordance with the terms of Clause 8.3.1 (Sole Risk); and

2.3Land Access Rights which do not relate to a Designated Project.

Exhibit 99.1

NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR DEFERRED

SHARE UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT

1.The Grant. Ivanhoe Electric Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants to you, [NAME] on the terms and conditions set forth in this Deferred Share Unit Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) and in the Ivanhoe Electric Inc. 2022 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), an Award as of [DATE] (the “Grant Date”) and for [NUMBER OF SHARES] deferred share units (the “DSUs”), each with respect to one share of common stock of the Company (a “Share”). All capitalized terms used in this Agreement, to the extent not defined, shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

2.Vesting Period. The DSUs are subject to the vesting requirements contained in this Agreement for a period (such period during which vesting requirements apply to the DSUs is a “Vesting Period”). Provided you were in continuous services as a member of the Board on the applicable Vesting Date below, the DSUs have vested, or will become vested, as follows:

VESTING DATE    NUMBER OF DSUS THAT BECOME VESTED

[March 31, 20_]    [25% of Total unless became a Director during or after Q1]

[June 30, 20_]    [25% of Total unless became a Director during or after Q2] [September 30, 20_]    [25% of Total unless became a Director during or after Q3] [December 31, 20_]    [25% of Total unless became a Director during Q4]

•For greater certainty, 100% of the DSUs will be vested by December 31st of the year of grant provided you continue to serve as a Director on such date.

•If you leave the Board (“termination of services”) during a Vesting Period, the portion of DSUs that were scheduled to vest at the end of such Vesting Period will be prorated based on the number of days during the Vesting Period prior to termination of services in relation to the total number of days in the Vesting Period (the “prorated portion”). The prorated portion will become vested upon your termination of services, and all other unvested DSUs, and your rights thereunder, will be forfeited.

•Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of your death or termination of services due to Disability, all of your unvested DSUs will become immediately vested upon your death or termination of services due to Disability. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means that you have been determined to have a total and permanent disability either by (a) being eligible for disability for Social Security purposes, or (b) being totally and permanently disabled under the terms of the Company’s long-term disability plan (regardless of whether you are a participant in such plan).

•Your rights to any DSUs that do not vest pursuant to this Section 2 or Section 5 hereof shall be immediately and irrevocably forfeited as of the date of your termination of service.

•The Board retains the discretion to accelerate vesting and waive forfeiture if it so determines within its sole discretion.

3.Form and Timing of Payment. The Company will deliver to you one Share for each DSU that vests pursuant to this Agreement as follows:

•The Company will deliver the Shares in respect of DSUs to you on the earlier of the third anniversary of the Grant Date and the date of your separation from service. If your DSUs are subject to United States federal income tax, “separation from service” has the meaning ascribed to it under Section 409A of the Code and applicable regulations thereunder.

•For DSUs awarded in 2024 or thereafter, the Board may permit a Director to elect the time of settlement of DSUs (the “Election”), provided such written election is made by December 31st of the year prior to the year in which the services giving rise to the compensation are

performed. If you made a timely election, the Company will deliver the Shares in respect of DSUs to you on the date or time specified in the Election.

4.Restrictions. The DSUs shall be subject to the following restrictions:

(a)    You may not sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber the DSUs. Neither the right to receive Shares in respect of the DSUs nor any interest under the Plan may be transferred by you, and any attempted transfer shall be void.

(b)Any securities or property (including cash) that may be issued with respect to the DSUs as a result of any stock dividend, stock split, business combination or other event shall be subject to the restrictions and other terms and conditions contained in this Agreement.

(c)    You shall not be entitled to receive the Shares underlying the DSUs prior to the completion of any registration or qualification of the Shares under any federal or state law or governmental rule or regulation that the Company, in its sole discretion, determines to be necessary or advisable.

5.Change in Control. Upon a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) prior to the end of an applicable Vesting Period, any outstanding DSUs shall remain outstanding and shall continue to vest in accordance with their terms, without regard to the occurrence of such Change in Control; provided, however, that if at any time following a Change in Control, your service on the Board is terminated prior to the end of an applicable Vesting Period by reason of your involuntary separation from service at the request of the Company or the Board, then unvested DSUs shall automatically vest.

6.Holding Requirement. You are subject to any Company stock ownership guidelines for directors as may be approved by the Board from time to time, and you will be required to retain 100% of the net number of Shares delivered to you under the terms of this Agreement until you meet such ownership guidelines.

7.No Rights as a Shareholder. Upon grant of this Award, you shall not have any rights of a stockholder with respect to the DSUs subject to this Agreement (including the right to vote the Shares underlying the DSUs and the right to receive any cash dividends and other distributions thereon prior to settlement of the DSUs) unless and until Shares are actually issued and delivered to you or your legal representative.

8.Income Taxes. You are liable for any federal, state and local income or other taxes applicable upon the grant of the DSUs, vesting of the DSUs, delivery of Shares in respect of the DSUs and subsequent disposition of the Shares issued in respect of the DSUs, and you acknowledge that you should consult with your own tax advisor regarding the applicable tax consequences.
