Vancouver, B.C. – NorthIsle Copper and Gold Inc. (TSXV: NCX, OTCQX:NTCPF) (“NorthIsle” or the “Company”) is
pleased to announce that, as a result of strong investor demand, it has entered into an agreement with Paradigm
Capital Inc. (“Paradigm”) as lead agent and sole bookrunner on behalf of a syndicate of agents including Agentis Capital
Markets Limited Partnership, Red Cloud Securities Inc., Ventum Financial Corp., and Raymond James Ltd. (collectively,
the “Agents”), to increase the Company’s previously announced brokered and non-brokered financings to C$35 million.
Brokered Private Placement
Pursuant to the amended terms of the financing, the brokered private placement (the “Brokered Offering”) will now
comprise total proceeds of up to approximately $30,002,847, consisting of up to 9,338,000 common shares of the
Company that qualify as “flow-through shares” (within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act
(Canada)) (the “CFT Shares”) to be issued to subscribers at a price of $1.6065 per CFT Share, and up to 14,287,000
common shares of the Company (the “Non-FT Shares” and together with the CFT Shares, the “Offered Shares”) at a
price of $1.05 per Non-FT Share.
In addition, the Company has granted the Agents an option (the “Agents’ Option”) to sell additional Offered Shares at
the same issue prices for additional aggregate gross proceeds of up to $4,500,427, exercisable not later than 48 hours
prior to the closing date of the Brokered Offering. The term “Brokered Offering” includes the additional Offered Shares
that may be issued on the exercise of the Agents’ Option, if any.
In connection with the Brokered Offering, the Company has agreed to pay the Agents a cash fee equal to 6.0% of the
gross proceeds of the Offered Shares sold thereunder (the “Agents’ Fee”), provided that the Agents’ Fee will be
reduced to 2.0% in respect of any Offered Shares sold to purchasers on the President’s List. The Agents will not be
entitled to any fee with respect to the shares sold as part of the Non-Brokered Offering (as defined below).
The Brokered Offering is anticipated to include participation from new and existing fundamental institutional investors,
certain insiders and directors, and existing cornerstone shareholders.
Non-Brokered Private Placement
Concurrent to the Brokered Offering, the Company will conduct a non-brokered private placement of 4,762,000 Non-FT
Shares at a price of $1.05 per common share to raise up to C$5,000,100 (the “Non-Brokered Offering” and together
with the Brokered Offering, the “Offering”). Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. has indicated its intention to subscribe in
the Non-Brokered Offering subject to entering into a right of first refusal agreement with Northisle, to be negotiated in
good faith, and certain other conditions.
In all other respects, the terms of the Brokered Offering and Non-Brokered Offering remain the same as previously
disclosed in the Company’s news release dated July 16, 2025.
The Offered Shares will be offered for sale to purchasers resident in Canada, except Quebec, pursuant to the listed
issuer financing exemption under Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions and in such other
jurisdictions as may be mutually agreed upon by the Agents and the Company. The Offered Shares will not be subject
a statutory hold period in Canada (except to the extent the TSX Venture Exchange’s (“TSXV”) four-month hold period
applies). There is an offering document related to the Brokered Offering that can be accessed under the Company’s
