The Acceleration Notice can be provided at any time after the statutory hold period and before the expiry
date of the warrants. All securities issued in connection with the Private Placement are subject to a hold
period of four months and one day pursuant to applicable securities laws.
The net proceeds of the FT Units will be used to incur eligible Canadian exploration expenses and flow -
through mining expenditures, as defined under the Income Tax Act (Canada), that will be renounced in
favour of the purchasers, with an effective date of no later than Dec. 31, 202 6. The funds will advance
exploration of the McKenzie Gold Project and other company assets in northern New Brunswick.

finders' fees of $76,650 and issued 383,250 non-transferable finder warrants (the “Finder Warrants”). The
Finder Warrants have the same terms as the Warrants and are exercisable to purchase one common share
of the Company at $0.25 per share, until December 9, 2027.

subscribed for 1 00,000 FT U nits at an aggregate price of $20,000, an amount no greater than the
maximum permissible under applicable securities laws and regulatory rules. Participation by the directors
and other insiders in the private placement is considered a “related party transaction” pursuant to

About Puma’s Assets in New Brunswick
Puma has accumulated an impressive portfolio of prospective gold landholdings strategically located

structure formed during the Appalachian Orogeny and a significant control for gold deposition in the

exploration work on its other properties have confirmed their potential for significant gold mineralization.
The Williams Brook Project was optioned to Kinross Gold in October 2024.
