Mako Mining Completes Acquisition of Mt. Hamilton in Nevada
Mako Mining Corp. ("Mako") (TSXV: MKO; OTCQX: MAKOF) is pleased to announce that, further to obtaining the approval of the shareholders of Mako on March 3, 2026, Mako has completed the acquisition (the "Acquisition") of 100% of the legal registered membership interests of Mt. Hamilton LLC, the owner of the Mt. Hamilton project in Nevada, USA (the "Mt. Hamilton Project"), from Sailfish Royalty Corp. ("Sailfish).
The Acquisition was completed pursuant to the terms of the amended and restated purchase and sale agreement dated February 14, 2026 Sailfish (the "A&R Purchase Agreement"), among Mako, Mako US Corp., and the amended and restated gold purchase agreement dated February 14, 2026 (the "A&R Gold Purchase Agreement") between Mako and Sailfish (collectively, the "Transaction Agreements").
Pursuant to the terms of the A&R Gold Purchase Agreement, Mako will satisfy the US$40 million purchase price for the Acquisition through the grant to Sailfish of the following steam as consideration:
• during the initial 60 months of the stream, Sailfish will purchase from Mako approximately 341.7 troy ounces of gold per month at a price equal to 20% of the London Bullion Market Association PM Fix price, subject to a floor of US$2,700 per ounce and a cap of US$3,700 per ounce; and
• during the final 72 months of the stream, Sailfish will purchase from Mako approximately 100 troy ounces of gold per month at a price equal to 20% of the London Bullion Market Association PM Fix price.
Mako's obligations under the A&R Gold Purchase Agreement will be secured in favour of Sailfish by first-ranking security interests over all current and future assets of Mako and certain of its subsidiaries that hold a direct or indirect interest in the Mt. Hamilton Project.
Please refer to Mako news release dated February 18, 2026, as well as the management information circular dated December 23, 2025 (the "Circular"), as supplemented by the circular supplement dated February 14, 2026 (the "Supplement") for further details of the Acquisition and the Transaction Agreements. The Transaction Agreements, the Circular and the Supplement are each available for review under Mako's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca.
Related Party Transaction
As both Mako and Sailfish are controlled by Wexford Capital LP, or private investment funds controlled by Wexford, Sailfish is considered to be a related party of Mako, and each of Mako and Sailfish are considered to be related parties of Wexford. As a result, the Acquisition constituted a related party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). Pursuant to Section 5.5(a) and 5.7(1) of MI 61-101, Mako was exempt from securities law requirements to obtain a formal valuation and minority approval of its shareholders for the related party transaction under the requirements of MI 61-101 on the basis that the fair market value of the transaction is below 25% of Mako's market capitalization, as determined in accordance with MI 61-101.
