Mako Announces Settlement and Release Agreement With GR Silver

Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement and Release Agreement, in consideration for the payment by Mako to GR Silver of a total of US$960,000, satisfied by payment of US$500,000 cash and the issuance and delivery to GR Silver of 296,710 common shares of Mako at a deemed price of $2.1007 per share, all currently existing and future undertakings, covenants, obligations and indemnities of Mako and any of the GR Silver Parties under the terms of the 2021 Sale Agreements have been terminated and released in full and are of no further force or effect.

Akiba Leisman CEO, states: "the completion of this Settlement and Release Agreement along with the record cashflow generated last quarter significantly strengthened Mako's balance sheet. Additionally, this eliminates a contingent environmental liability while freeing up management time and focus. Since 2021, this liability has been marked on our balance sheet between US$0.8 and US$1.05 million, according to our reclamation budget and plans. All of these balance sheet endeavors were prerequisites for the Company prior to engaging in internal and external growth opportunities."

The issuance of Mako shares to GR Silver in connection with the Settlement and Release Agreement is subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange, and all shares issued will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities legislation.
