BUSINESS COMBINATION AGREEMENT AND $25 MILLION FINANCING

VANCOUVER, BC – January 28, 2026 – 1317202 B.C. Ltd. (“131”) and Titiminas Silver Inc. (“Titiminas”) are

pleased to announce that further to their press release dated December 30, 2025 announcing their proposed business

combination (the “Business Combination”), 131 has entered into a definitive business combination agreement dated

January 23, 2026 (the “Definitive Agreement”) with Titiminas and 1573892 B.C. Ltd. (“Subco”), a wholly owned

subsidiary of 131 and concurrently therewith, Titiminas entered into an engagement letter with Canaccord Genuity

Corp. (“Canaccord”), as lead agent, on their own behalf and on behalf of a syndicate of agents (collectively, the

“Agents”), pursuant to which Titiminas intends to complete, directly or indirectly, a private placement of subscription

receipts (the “Subscription Receipts”) at a price of $1.75 per Subscription Receipt (the “Offering Price”) for gross

proceeds of approximately $25 million (the “Offering”). The Offering will be conducted on a “best efforts” private

placement basis. Titiminas has also granted the Agents an option (the “Agents’ Option”) to arrange for the sale of up

to such number of additional Subscription Receipts as is equal to 15% of the number of Subscription Receipts sold

under the Offering at the Offering Price. The Agents’ Option shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time prior

to closing of the Offering (the “Closing Date”).

Existing shareholders, management, officers and affiliates of Titiminas, including Eric Sprott, intend to participate in

the Offering.

Terms of the Offering

Upon closing of the Offering, the gross proceeds of the Offering, less (i) the Agents’ reasonable out-of-pocket

expenses and the reasonable fees and disbursements of the Agents’ legal counsel incurred prior to the Closing Date;

and (ii) 50% of the Agents’ Fee (the “Escrowed Funds”), will be held in escrow pursuant to the Subscription Receipt

Agreement in an interest bearing account pending the earlier of: (i) the satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions

(as defined below) and (ii) the occurrence of a Termination Event (as defined below).

Each Subscription Receipt will entitle the holder thereof to receive, without any further action and without payment

of additional consideration, and subject to adjustments in certain circumstances, one common share of Titiminas or a

subsidiary thereof (a “Subscription Receipt Share”) upon the satisfaction or waiver of the Escrow Release

Conditions prior to the Termination Date. The Subscription Receipts will be issued pursuant to and governed by the

terms of a subscription receipt agreement (the “Subscription Receipt Agreement ”) to be entered into between

Titiminas and a subscription receipt agent to be determined by Titiminas (the “Subscription Receipt Agent ”), and

Canaccord, on behalf of the Agents, and such other parties may be reasonably determined to be appropriate.

The “Escrow Release Conditions” include, among other things: (i) the receipt of all required corporate, shareholder

and regulatory approvals in connection with the Offering, Business Combination and the listing of the Resulting Issuer

Shares (as defined below) on the Exchange; (ii) the completion or the satisfaction of all conditions precedent to the

Business Combination, substantially in accordance with the Definitive Agreement, to the satisfaction of the Agents;

and (iii) delivery of a legal opinion of counsel to Titiminas, satisfactory to Canaccord, that the Resulting Issuer Shares

(as defined below) issued in exchange for the Subscription Receipt Shares under the Business Combination will not

be subject to a hold period under applicable Canadian securities laws.

Immediately upon completion of the Business Combination: (i) 131 will be renamed Titiminas Silver Inc. or such

other name as may be determined by Titiminas (the “Resulting Issuer ”) and will be listed on the TSX Venture

Exchange (the “Exchange”); and (ii) all shares of Titiminas , including the Subscription Receipt Shares, shall be

exchanged for common shares of the Resulting Issuer (the “Resulting Issuer Shares ”) based on the terms of the

Business Combination, and anticipated to be one common share of the Resulting Issuer for each Subscription Receipt

Share held (following an anticipated consolidation of the common shares of 131 (“131 Shares”) on an approximately

10.75 to 1 consolidation ratio).

Upon satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions on or prior to the Termination Date (as defined below), the

Subscription Receipt Agent will release the deposited Agents’ Fee together with all interest earned thereon, to

Canaccord from the Escrowed Funds and the balance of the Escrowed Funds together with all interest earned thereon

shall be released to Titiminas or the Resulting Issuer.

If (i) the Escrow Release Conditions have not been satisfied prior to 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on that date which is

120 days following the Closing Date, (ii) the Business Combination is terminated at any earlier time, or (iii) Titiminas

advises Canaccord, on behalf of the Agents, or announces to the public that it does not intend to satisfy the Escrow

Release Conditions (in any case, a “Termination Event ”, and the date upon which such event occurs, the

“Termination Date ”), the Subscription Receipt Agent shall return to the holders of the Subscription Receipts an

amount equal to the aggregate Offering Price of the Subscription Receipts held by each such holder and their pro-rata

portion of interest and other income earned on the Escrowed Funds and the Subscription Receipts shall be cancelled.

Titiminas shall be responsible and liable to the holders of the Subscription Receipts for any shortfall between the

aggregate Offering Price paid by the original purchasers of the Subscription Receipts and the Escrowed Funds.

The Subscription Receipts and the Subscription Receipt Shares issuable thereunder shall be subject to an indefinite

hold period as set out in National Instrument 45-102 - Resale of Securities. The Resulting Issuer Shares issued in

exchange for the Subscription Receipt Shares under the Business Combination will not be subject to a hold period

under applicable securities legislation in Canada.

The Resulting Issuer intends to use the gross proceeds of the Offering to undertake exploration programs on its

existing mineral properties, pursue acquisition opportunities for additional Peruvian mineral properties as well as for

general corporate and working capital purposes.
