AMERICAN PACIFIC MINING CORP.

January 23, 2026

Dear Shareholders:

You are invited to attend an annual general and special meeting (the “Meeting”) of the holders (the “APM Shareholders”) of common shares (each, an “APM Share”) of American Pacific Mining Corp. (“APM”) to be held at McMillan LLP, 1500-1055 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia on February 25, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time).

At the Meeting, in addition to the business of the annual general meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote upon a resolution (the “Arrangement Resolution”) approving a proposed plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) involving APM and ICG Silver & Gold Ltd. (“ICG”), whereby ICG will acquire 100% of the Tuscarora and Danny Boy projects from APM (the “Projects”) through the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of American Pacific Mining (US) Inc. (“APMUS”) and Clearview Gold Inc. (“CGI”), each a wholly-owned subsidiary of APM, pursuant to an arrangement agreement entered into between APM and ICG on December 7, 2025, as amended January 21, 2026 (the “Arrangement Agreement”).

The Arrangement is primarily being conducted in order for APM to unlock value for shareholders by exchanging past-producing silver and gold assets in Nevada that are not currently a core focus for APM, for a significant equity interest in a focused exploration company dedicated to advancing the district.

Under the Arrangement, and the terms of a related share exchange agreement, dated December 7, 2025, among APM, ICG, APMUS, and CGI (the “Share Exchange Agreement”):

  • ICG will acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of CGI, the registered owner of the Danny Boy project, and all of the issued and outstanding shares of APMUS, the registered owner of the Tuscarora project, in exchange for the issuance of 11,500,000 fully-paid and non-assessable common shares in the capital of ICG (the “Consideration Shares”) to APM at a deemed issue price of $0.15 per Consideration Share;
  • ICG will be required to pay USD$5,000,000 in cash to APM within five business days of either Project achieving commercial production;
  • APM will distribute, on a pro rata basis, 7,500,000 of the Consideration Shares to APM Shareholders by exchanging each outstanding APM Share for (i) one new APM Share (a “New APM Share”) which will be identical in every relevant respect to the APM Shares and (ii) approximately 0.0283 of a common share of ICG (an “ICG Share”) (based on the number of issued and outstanding APM Shares as of the date hereof, assuming completion of and giving effect to APM’s fully subscribed non-brokered private placement announced January 20, 2026);
  • holders (“APM Optionholders”) of options to purchase APM Shares (“APM Options”) will, in exchange for their APM Options, receive new options to purchase from APM one New APM Share on the same terms and conditions of the APM Options except that the exercise price will be reduced by the deemed value of the ICG Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio (each, a “New APM Option”); and
  • holders (“APM Warrantholders”) of APM Share purchase warrants (“APM Warrants”) will be entitled to receive one New APM Share and the number of ICG Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio upon exercise of each APM Warrant held.

Following the Arrangement, it is anticipated that APM Shareholders will own approximately 19% of ICG. It is a condition to closing that ICG obtain the conditional approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) to list the ICG Shares on the CSE.


In order to become effective, the Arrangement must be approved by at least two-thirds of the votes cast on the special resolution approving the Arrangement by APM Shareholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting, on the basis of one vote per APM Share.

In addition to the approvals of the APM Shareholders, completion of the Arrangement is subject to receipt of required regulatory approvals, including the approval of the planned listing of the ICG Shares on the CSE, the approval of the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the "Court"), and other customary closing conditions, all of which are described in more detail in the accompanying management information circular (the "Circular").

All of the directors and officers of APM, who hold in the aggregate approximately 1.2% of the issued and outstanding APM Shares on a non-diluted basis, have entered into agreements with ICG to vote in favour of the Arrangement, subject to certain exceptions.

After taking into consideration the opinion of Evans & Evans, Inc., the independent fairness advisor to the APM Board, delivered on December 5, 2025, as to the financial fairness of the consideration to be received by APM Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement, the APM Board has unanimously determined (with conflicting directors abstaining) that the Arrangement is in the best interests of APM and is fair to the APM Shareholders and has approved the Arrangement and authorized its submission to the APM Shareholders and to the Court for approval. Accordingly, the APM Board unanimously recommends (with conflicting directors abstaining) that the APM Shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement.

The accompanying notice of meeting and Circular contain a detailed description of the Arrangement and include certain other information to assist you in considering the matters to be voted upon. You are urged to carefully consider all of the information in the accompanying Circular, including the documents incorporated by reference. If you require assistance, you should consult your financial, legal, or other professional advisor.

Voting

Your vote is important regardless of the number of APM Shares you own. Even if you are a registered APM Shareholder and plan to attend the Meeting, we encourage you to take the time now to follow the instructions on the enclosed form of proxy so that your APM Shares can be voted at the Meeting in accordance with your instructions. We encourage you to use the internet voting option to ensure your vote is received prior to the voting deadline. Alternatively, you can complete, sign, date and return the enclosed form by mail or facsimile. If you hold APM Shares through a broker, trustee, financial institution or other intermediary, you are a non-registered APM Shareholder and you will receive instructions from such intermediary, or on the intermediary's behalf, as to how to vote such APM Shares. We encourage non-registered APM Shareholders to carefully follow such instructions on a timely basis so that your APM Shares can be voted at the Meeting.

See the section in the Circular entitled "General Proxy Information — Voting by APM Shareholders" for further information on how to vote your APM Shares. If you have any questions about submitting your APM Shares, please contact TSX Trust Company, who is acting as depositary under the Arrangement, toll free at 1-866-600-5869, or by email at [email protected].


While certain matters, such as the timing of the receipt of Court approval and receipt of all applicable approvals are beyond the control of APM, if the resolution approving the Arrangement is passed by the requisite number of APM Shareholders at the Meeting, and the other conditions to closing are satisfied, it is anticipated that the Arrangement will be completed and become effective during the first quarter of 2026.


On behalf of APM, we would like to thank you for your continued support as we proceed with this important transaction.

Sincerely,

"Warwick Smith"

Warwick Smith

Chief Executive Officer and Director

American Pacific Mining Corp.

If you are a beneficial APM Shareholder, please contact your intermediary for instructions on how to revoke your proxy.

Q: What are the recommendations of the APM Board?

2


A: After taking into consideration, among other things, the Fairness Opinion of Evans & Evans, Inc., the APM Board (with conflicted directors abstaining) have concluded that the Arrangement is in the best interests of APM and fair to the APM Shareholders and recommend that APM Shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement Resolution to approve the Arrangement.

Q: Why is the APM Board making this recommendation?

A: In reaching their conclusion that the Arrangement is fair to APM Shareholders and that the Arrangement is in the best interests of APM, the APM Board considered and relied upon a number of factors, including those described under the headings “The Arrangement—Background to the Arrangement” and “The Arrangement—Fairness Opinion” in this Circular.

Q: In addition to the approval of APM Shareholders, are there any other approvals required for the Arrangement?

A: Yes, the Arrangement requires the approval of the Court and also is subject to the receipt of certain regulatory approvals, including the acceptance of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) and the conditional approval by the CSE of the listing of ICG on the CSE. See “The Arrangement—Court Approval of the Arrangement” and “The Arrangement – Regulatory Approvals” in this Circular.

Q: Are ICG shareholders required to approve the Arrangement?

A: No, the Arrangement does not require the approval of ICG shareholders.

Q: Do any Directors or executive officers of APM have any interests in the Arrangement that are different from, or in addition to, those of the APM Shareholders?

A: In considering the recommendation of the APM Board to vote in favour of the matters discussed in this Circular, APM Shareholders should be aware that some of the directors and executive officers of APM have interests in the Arrangement that are different from, or in addition to, the interests of APM Shareholders generally. In particular, Warwick Smith (Chief Executive Officer and Director of APM), Joness Lang (President and Director of APM) and Ali Hakimzadeh (Director of APM) each acquired 1,000,000 ICG Shares at a price of $0.03 per ICG Share in early October 2025. The APM Board (with such conflicted directors abstaining) was aware of these interests and considered them, among other matters, when recommending approval of the Arrangement by APM Shareholders. See “The Arrangement – Interest of Certain Persons in the Arrangement” in this Circular.

Q: Will the APM Shares continue to be listed on the CSE after the Arrangement?

A: Yes, APM is excepted to continue to be listed on the CSE following completion of the Arrangement. The existing APM Shares will be delisted from the CSE effective at the close of trading on the Closing Date. The new APM Shares, which will be identical in every relevant respect to the APM Shares and which are being distributed pursuant to the Arrangement, are expected to commence trading on the CSE at the opening of trading on the following trading day. Upon completion of the Arrangement, former APM Shareholders will also hold ICG Shares. An application to list the ICG Shares on the CSE is expected to be made.

Q: Should I send my APM Share certificates now?

A: You are not required to send your certificates representing APM Shares to validly cast your vote in respect of the Arrangement Resolution.

Q: When can I expect to receive consideration for my APM Shares?


A: Assuming completion of the Arrangement, if you hold your APM Shares through an intermediary, then you are not required to take any action and the ICG Shares and New APM Shares will be delivered to your intermediary through the procedures in place for such purposes between CDS & Co. or similar entities and such intermediaries. If you hold your APM Shares through an intermediary, you should contact your intermediary if you have questions regarding this process.

In the case of Registered APM Shareholders, as soon as practicable after the Effective Date ICG will cause to be forwarded certificates representing the ICG Shares to which the Registered APM Shareholder is entitled by first class mail to the address of the APM Shareholder as shown on the register maintained by TSX Trust. TSX Trust will also forward DRS Advice Statements or, if requested, physical certificates representing the New APM Shares to the Registered APM Shareholder.

Q: How will the votes be counted?

A: TSX Trust, APM’s transfer agent, counts and tabulates the proxies. Proxies are counted and tabulated by the transfer agent in such a manner as to preserve the confidentiality of the voting instructions of Registered APM Shareholders, subject to a limited number of exceptions.

Q: How will I know when the Arrangement will be implemented?

A: The Effective Date will occur upon satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions to the completion of the Arrangement contained in the Arrangement Agreement. If the Arrangement Resolution is passed at the Meeting, the Effective Date is expected to occur in the first quarter of 2026. On the Effective Date, APM will publicly announce that the conditions are satisfied or waived, and that the Arrangement has been implemented.

Q: Are there risks I should consider in deciding whether to vote for the Arrangement Resolution?

A: Yes. APM Shareholders should carefully consider the risk factors relating to the Arrangement as described in the circular under “The Arrangement – Risks Associated with the Arrangement”.

Q: What are the Canadian income tax consequences of the Arrangement?

A: For a summary of certain material Canadian income tax consequences of the Arrangement, see “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations”. Such summary is not intended to be legal or tax advice to any particular APM securityholder. APM Shareholders should consult their own tax and investment advisors with respect to their particular circumstances.

Q: What are the U.S. Federal income tax consequences of the Arrangement?

A: No opinion, advice or representation is being provided herein with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Arrangement to APM Shareholders, holders of APM stock options (“APM Optionholders”), or holders of APM share purchase warrants (“APM Warrantholders”). APM Shareholders, APM Optionholders and APM Warrantholders who are residents in, or subject to tax in, the United States should consult their own tax advisors with respect to their particular circumstances.

Q: Am I entitled to Dissent Rights?

A: The Interim Order provides the Registered APM Shareholders with Dissent Rights in connection with the Arrangement that will be available if the Arrangement Resolution is approved by the APM Shareholders. Registered APM Shareholders considering exercising Dissent Rights should seek the advice of their own legal counsel and tax and investment advisors and should carefully review the description of such rights set forth in this Circular and the Interim Order, and comply with the provisions of the

Information Contained in this Circular Regarding ICG

The information concerning ICG, its affiliates and the ICG Shares contained in this Circular have been provided by ICG for inclusion in this Circular. Although APM has no knowledge that would indicate any statements contained herein relating to ICG, its affiliates or the ICG Shares taken from or based upon such information provided by ICG are untrue or incomplete, neither APM nor any of its officers or directors assumes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the information relating to ICG, its affiliates or the ICG Shares, or for any failure by ICG to disclose facts or events that may have occurred or may affect the significance or accuracy of any such information but which are unknown to APM.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISKS

This Circular and the documents incorporated into this Circular contain "forward-looking information" within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Circular or as of the date of the applicable document from which they are incorporated by reference.

Forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of APM's and ICG's management, as the case may be, as well as on assumptions which such management believes to be reasonable based on information currently available at the time such statements were made. Such forward-looking statements in this Circular include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the timing and implementation of the proposed Arrangement and any transactions associated therewith (including its completion before the Outside Date, the proposed share exchanges as set out in the Share


Exchange Agreement, and the CSE listing of ICG), the anticipated benefits of the Arrangement, and the availability of cash flow to fund capital requirements. However, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate. Such assumptions and factors include, without limitation: that the required approvals to the Arrangement will be obtained from the APM Shareholders and all other required third parties, Court, regulatory and governmental bodies; assumptions made in connection with the preparation of the pro forma financial statements included herein; that all other conditions to the completion of the Arrangement will be satisfied or waived; that the future business operations and prospects of APM and ICG will be consistent with the current expectations of APM; that the expected benefits of the Arrangement will be realized; and that projections are accurate. These assumptions are based on factors and events that are not within the control of APM and there is no assurance they will prove to be correct.

In certain cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "plans", "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "budget", "potential", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate", or "believes", or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results "will", "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved" or the negative of these terms or comparable terminology. By their very nature, forward-looking statements require APM to make assumptions and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of New APM and ICG to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. A variety of material factors include, among others: credit risks, market risks (including those related to equity, commodity, foreign exchange and interest rate markets), liquidity risks, operational risks (including those related to technology and infrastructure), and risks relating to reputation, insurance, strategy, regulatory matters, legal matters, environmental matters and capital adequacy. Examples of such risk factors include failure to complete the Arrangement could negatively impact the market price of APM Shares and future business and financial results; New APM and ICG may be subject to significant capital requirements and operating risks; changes in law, the ability to implement business strategies and pursue business opportunities; state of the capital markets; the availability of funds and resources to pursue operations; dependence on key suppliers; granting of permits and licenses; disruptions in or attacks (including cyber-attacks) on information technology, internet, network access or other voice or data communications systems or services; the evolution of various types of fraud or other criminal behaviour; the failure of third parties to comply with their obligations; the impact of new and changes to, or application of, current laws and regulations; the overall difficult litigation environment, including in the U.S.; increased competition; changes in foreign currency rates; increased funding costs and market volatility due to market illiquidity and competition for funding; the availability of funds and resources to pursue operations; critical accounting estimates and changes to accounting standards, policies, and methods; and the occurrence of natural and unnatural catastrophic events and claims resulting from such events, as well as other general economic, market and business conditions, amongst others, as well as those risks described under the headings "The Arrangement - Risks Associated with the Arrangement" in this Circular and Appendix F - "Information Concerning ICG After The Arrangement", as well as any other risk factors detailed from time to time in APM's audited annual financial statements and management's discussion and analysis ("MD&A"). APM's audited annual financials and MD&A are filed and available for review on its SEDAR profile at www.sedarplus.ca while ICG's audited annual financial statements are included in this Circular as Schedule A to Appendix F. Although APM has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. APM provides no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. APM and ICG do not intend, and do not assume any obligation, to update any forward-looking statements, other than as required by applicable Laws. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

NOTICE TO UNITED STATES SECURITYHOLDERS

THE ARRANGEMENT AND THE SECURITIES TO BE ISSUED IN CONNECTION WITH THE ARRANGEMENT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH, RECOMMENDED BY, OR APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE "SEC") OR THE SECURITIES REGULATORY AUTHORITIES IN ANY U.S. STATE; NOR HAS THE SEC OR THE SECURITIES REGULATORY AUTHORITIES OF ANY U.S. STATE PASSED UPON THE FAIRNESS OR MERITS OF THE ARRANGEMENT OR UPON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS CIRCULAR. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

The New APM Shares, ICG Shares and New APM Options to be issued and distributed to APM Securityholders pursuant to the Arrangement have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or applicable U.S. state Securities Laws, and will be issued, distributed and exchanged, as applicable, in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act set forth in Section 3(a)(10) thereof on the basis of the approval of the Court, which will consider, among other things, the fairness of the Arrangement to APM Securityholders as further described in this Circular under the heading “The Arrangement – CSE Requirements, Regulatory Law and Securities Law Matters”, and in reliance on exemptions from registration under applicable state Securities Laws.

The solicitation of proxies for the Meeting made pursuant to this Circular is not subject to the requirements of Section 14(a) of the U.S. Exchange Act. Accordingly, this Circular has been prepared in accordance with disclosure requirements applicable in Canada. APM Shareholders in the United States should be aware that such requirements are different from those applicable to proxy statements which are subject to the U.S. Exchange Act.

The financial statements and information included or incorporated by reference in this Circular have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB and interpretations issued by the IFRIC and Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. Further, the annual financial statements have been audited in accordance with Canadian auditing and auditor independence standards, and thus may not be comparable to financial statements prepared in accordance with United States standards.

Information concerning the business and operations of APM and ICG has been prepared in accordance with Canadian disclosure standards under applicable Canadian corporate and Securities Laws. Accordingly, such information may not be comparable to similar information prepared in accordance with United States standards (including, without limitation, the disclosure requirements applicable to registration statements filed with the SEC under the U.S. Securities Act).

APM Securityholders who are resident in, or citizens of, the United States are advised to consult their own tax advisors to determine the particular United States tax consequences to them of the Arrangement in light of their particular situation, as well as any tax consequences that may arise under the Laws of any other relevant foreign, state, local, or other taxing jurisdiction. No ruling from the United States Internal Revenue Service or legal opinions have been or will be sought with respect to any of the tax consequences relating to the transaction described herein, including, without limitation, with respect to income, estate, gift or other tax consequences.

The enforcement by APM Securityholders of civil liabilities under U.S. Securities Laws may be affected adversely by the fact that each of New APM and ICG is incorporated or organized outside the United States, and that some or all of their officers and directors and the experts named herein are residents of a foreign country and that all or a portion of the assets of New APM and ICG and said persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for APM Shareholders in the United States to effect service of process within the United States upon New APM and ICG, their respective officers or directors or the experts named herein, or to realize against them upon judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon civil liabilities under U.S. federal or state Securities Laws.

In addition, APM Shareholders in the United States should not assume that the courts of Canada: (a) would allow APM Shareholders in the United States to sue New APM or ICG, or their respective officers or directors, in the courts of Canada; (b) would enforce judgments of United States courts obtained in actions against such Persons predicated upon civil liabilities under the federal Securities Laws of the United States or “blue sky” laws of any state within the United States; or (c) would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against such Persons predicated upon civil liabilities under the federal Securities Laws of the United States or “blue sky” laws of any state within the United States.

The New APM Shares and ICG Shares to be received by APM Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement will be freely transferable under U.S. Securities Laws, except Persons who are “affiliates” (as such term in understood under U.S. Securities Laws) of New APM or ICG, as applicable, after the Effective Date, or were “affiliates” of APM or ICG, as applicable, within 90 days prior to the Effective Date. Persons who may be deemed to be “affiliates” of an issuer include individuals or entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common control with, the issuer, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise, and generally include executive officers and directors of the issuer, as well as persons who beneficially own or control more than 10% of the outstanding voting

3


securities of the issuer. Any resale of such New APM Shares or ICG Shares by such an affiliate (or former affiliate) may be subject to the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, absent an exemption therefrom.

The New APM Shares issuable upon exercise of New APM Options, and the New APM Shares and ICG Shares issuable upon exercise of APM Warrants, have not been and will not be will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or applicable U.S. state Securities Laws. The New APM Shares issuable upon exercise of New APM Options, and the New APM Shares and ICG Shares issuable upon exercise of APM Warrants, may not be issued in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act provided by Section 3(a)(10) thereof; and the New APM Options and the APM Warrants may be exercised by, or for the account or benefit of, a person in the United States or a U.S. Person only pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state Securities Laws. Prior to the issuance of New APM Shares and ICG Shares pursuant to any such exercise, New APM or ICG, as applicable, may require evidence (which may include an opinion of counsel of recognized standing) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to New APM or ICG, as applicable, to the effect that the issuance of such shares does not require registration under the U.S. Securities Act or applicable U.S. State Securities Laws.

New APM Shares and/or ICG Shares received upon exercise of the New APM Options or APM Warrants by holders in the United States or who are U.S. Persons will be "restricted securities," as such term is defined in Rule 144, and may not be resold unless such securities are registered under the U.S. Securities Act and all applicable U.S. state Securities Laws or unless an exemption from such registration requirements is available.

No broker, dealer, salesperson or other Person has been authorized to give any information or make any representation other than those contained in this Circular and, if given or made, such information or representation must not be relied upon as having been authorized hereunder.

Unless otherwise indicated, all mineral resource estimates included in this Circular have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101. NI 43-101 is an instrument developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects.

The SEC has adopted amendments to its disclosure rules to modernize the mineral property disclosure requirements (the "SEC Mineral Disclosure Rules") for issuers whose securities are being registered with the SEC under the U.S. Securities Act or are subject to reporting requirements under the U.S. Exchange Act. The SEC Mineral Disclosure Rules have replaced the historical property disclosure requirements for mining registrants that were included in SEC Industry Guide 7, which has been rescinded.

United States investors are cautioned that the disclosure that APM provides on its mineral properties in this Circular may be different from the disclosure that an issuer subject to SEC reporting requirements (other than Canadian issuers eligible to file reports with the SEC under the Multijurisdictional Disclosure System, or MJDS) would otherwise be required to provide under the SEC Mineral Disclosure Rules.

As used in this Circular, technical terms have the meanings ascribed to them under the CIM Definition Standards. United States investors are cautioned that while the CIM Definition Standards include terms that are substantially similar to those included in the SEC Mineral Disclosure Rules, there are differences in the definitions under the CIM Definition Standards and the SEC Mineral Disclosure Rules.

For the above reasons, information contained in this Circular containing descriptions of APM's mineral properties may not be comparable to similar information made public by United States companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the United States federal Securities Laws.

CURRENCY AND EXCHANGE RATES

Unless otherwise indicated herein, references to “$”, “C$” or “Canadian dollars” are to Canadian dollars, and references to “C$” or “U.S. dollars” are to United States dollars.

Background to the Arrangement

The provisions of the Arrangement Agreement are the result of arm’s length negotiations between representatives of APM and ICG and their respective financial and legal advisors. A summary of the material events, meetings, negotiations and discussions between representatives of APM and ICG that preceded the execution and public announcement of the Arrangement Agreement on December 7, 2025 is included in this Circular under the heading “The Arrangement — Background to the Arrangement”.

The Arrangement

Pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement, commencing at the Effective Time, except as otherwise noted therein, the following principal steps will occur and will be deemed to occur in the following order without any further act or formality:

(a) the Share Exchange Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, including the transfer of all of the issued and outstanding shares of APMUS and CGI to ICG in consideration for 11,500,000 ICG Shares, will be effected;

(b) all Dissent Shares held by Dissenting Shareholders will be deemed to have been transferred to APM and each Dissenting Shareholder will cease to have any right as an APM Shareholder other than a right to be paid by APM the fair value for such Dissent Shares;

(c) APM will undertake a reorganization of capital within the meaning of Section 86 of the Tax Act, which will occur in the following order;


(i) the identifying name of the APM Shares will be changed from “Common Shares” to “Class A Common Shares” and to reflect such amendments APM’s articles will be deemed to be amended and APM’s notice of articles will be deemed to be amended accordingly;

(ii) a class consisting of an unlimited number of New APM Shares will be created and the identifying name of the New APM Shares will be “Common Shares”; and

(iii) each outstanding APM Share will be exchanged (without any further act or formality on the part of the APM Shareholder), free and clear of all encumbrances, for one New APM Share and that number of ICG Shares that is equal to the Exchange Ratio and the APM Shares will thereupon be cancelled, and (A) the holders of APM Shares will cease to be the holders thereof and cease to have any rights or privileges as holders of APM Shares; (B) the holders’ names will be removed from the securities register of APM; and (C) each APM Shareholder will be deemed to be the holder of the New APM Shares and the ICG Shares exchanged after the APM Shares, in each case, free and clear of all Encumbrances, and will be entered into the securities register of APM and ICG as the registered holder thereof;

(d) concurrently with the step described in (c) above, and notwithstanding the terms of the APM Option Plan (including any agreement made thereunder), each APM Option that has not been duly exercised prior to the Effective Time will be deemed to be surrendered and shall be cancelled (without any action on the part of the holder of the APM Option), and each agreement relating to each APM Option will be terminated and of no further force and effect, and in exchange, each Former APM Optionholder will be entitled to receive for each outstanding APM Option held by the Former APM Optionholder immediately before the Effective Time one New APM Option to acquire one New APM Share on the same terms and conditions as the APM Option so exchanged, except that the exercise price of the New APM Option shall be reduced by the deemed value of that number of ICG Shares that is equal to the Exchange Ratio at the Effective Time, provided that the exercise price of the New APM Option shall be further adjusted to the extent, if any, required to ensure that the aggregate In the Money Amount of the New APM Option immediately after the exchange does not exceed the In the Money Amount immediately before the exchange of the APM Option so exchanged;

(e) each outstanding APM Warrant will, in accordance with its terms, entitle the holder thereof to receive, upon due exercise of the APM Warrant, for the original exercise price: (A) one New APM Share for each APM Share that was issuable upon due exercise of the APM Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time; and (B) that number of ICG Shares that is equal to the Exchange Ratio for each APM Share that was issuable upon due exercise of the APM Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time;

(f) the authorized share capital of APM will be amended by (A) the elimination of the APM Shares and the special rights and restrictions attached to such shares, and (B) the creation of special rights and restrictions for the New APM Shares as set out in Appendix B to the Plan of Arrangement; and to reflect such amendments, the notice of articles will be deemed to be amended accordingly; and

(g) the capital of APM in respect of the New APM Shares will be an amount equal to the paid-up capital for the purposes of the Tax Act in respect of the APM Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time, less the fair market value of the ICG Shares distributed on such exchange as determined by the APM Board.

Following the steps contemplated above, APM is expected to retain 4,000,000 ICG Shares.

Background to the Arrangement

Management of APM believes that a greater value can be recognized for APM’s Shareholders by allowing the Projects to be explored by ICG while retaining exposure to ICG’s corporate growth and exploration and development success through APM’s equity ownership and milestone based consideration structure. This additionally allows APM to


concentrate additional resources on developing its flagship Madison Copper-Gold project in Montana. As a result, and as announced originally by news release on December 7, 2025, management has decided to proceed with the Arrangement in order to meet the objectives set out under the heading “Reasons for the Arrangement” below.

Reasons for the Arrangement

The APM Board has reviewed and considered a significant amount of information and considered a number of factors relating to the Arrangement with the benefit of advice from APM’s senior management and its financial, legal and technical advisors. The following is a summary of the principal reasons for the unanimous recommendation of the APM Board that APM Shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement Resolution:

  • Continued Participation by APM Shareholders in the Projects Through ICG. APM Shareholders, through their ownership of ICG Shares, will continue to participate in the value creation associated with the exploration, development and operation of the Projects. APM Shareholders are expected to hold approximately 19% of the issued and outstanding ICG Shares upon completion of the Arrangement.
  • Continued Participation by APM Shareholders in the New APM Business. APM Shareholders, through their ownership of all of the issued and outstanding New APM Shares, will continue to participate in the value associated with the development, operation, and growth of the New APM Business.
  • Fairness Opinion. Evans & Evans provided its opinion to the APM Board to the effect that, as of December 5, 2025 and based upon and subject to the scope of the review, analysis undertaken and various assumptions, limitations and qualifications set out in the Fairness Opinion, the ICG Shares to be received under the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to APM Shareholders.
  • Likelihood of the Arrangement Being Completed. The likelihood of the Arrangement being completed is considered to be high, in light of the experience, reputation and financial capability of ICG and the absence of significant closing conditions, other than the APM Shareholder Approval and the approval by the Court of the Arrangement, the exercise by no more than 5% of the APM Shareholders of their Dissent Rights, and other customary closing conditions.
  • Approval of APM Shareholders and the Court are Required. The Arrangement must be approved by at least two-thirds of the votes cast in respect of the Arrangement Resolution by APM Shareholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting, on the basis of one vote per APM Share. The Arrangement must also be sanctioned by the Court, which will consider the fairness of the Arrangement to APM Shareholders.
  • Dissent Rights. Registered APM Shareholders who oppose the Arrangement may, on strict compliance with certain conditions, exercise their Dissent Rights and receive the fair value of the Dissent Shares in accordance with the Arrangement.
  • Voting Support Agreements. All of the directors and officers of APM (who collectively hold approximately 1.2% of the outstanding APM Shares) have entered into the Voting Agreements pursuant to which they agreed to vote in favour of the Arrangement.

See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements And Risks” and “The Arrangement – Background to the Arrangement”.

Recommendation of the APM Board

After careful consideration of, among other things, the factors described under the heading “The Arrangement - Reasons for the Arrangement”, the APM Board (with conflicting directors abstaining) has unanimously determined that the Plan of Arrangement is fair to APM Shareholders and is in the best interests of APM. Accordingly, the APM Board unanimously recommends (with conflicting directors abstaining) that APM Shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement Resolution.

Fairness Opinion

Evans & Evans was engaged by the APM Board to provide a written opinion, dated December 5, 2025, to the APM Board as to the fairness of the Arrangement, from a financial point of view, to APM Shareholders. Evans & Evans rendered its opinion that, as of the date of the Fairness Opinion, based upon and subject to the various considerations set forth in the Fairness Opinion, the full text of which is attached as Appendix C to this Circular, including the scope of review, limitations and assumptions, the proposed Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of APM Shares. APM Shareholders are urged to, and should, read the Fairness Opinion in its entirety. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Fairness Opinion. See “The Arrangement – Fairness Opinion”.

Evans & Evans has consented to the inclusion in this Circular of the Fairness Opinion in its entirety, together with the summary herein and other information relating to Evans & Evans and the Fairness Opinion. The Fairness Opinion addresses only the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the consideration to be received by the APM Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement and does not, and should not, be construed as a valuation of APM or ICG (or any of their affiliates) or their respective assets, liabilities or securities or as a recommendation to any APM Shareholder as to how to vote with respect to the Arrangement or any other matter at the Meeting.

Voting Agreements

ICG entered into Voting Agreements with certain APM Shareholders prior to the Record Date. The Voting Agreements set forth, among other things, the agreement of such APM Shareholders to vote their APM Shares in favour of the Arrangement. As of the Record Date, 2,529,500 of the outstanding APM Shares were subject to the Voting Agreements, representing approximately 1.2% of the outstanding APM Shares.

ICG has confirmed to APM that neither ICG nor any of its affiliates held any APM Shares (or securities convertible into APM Shares) as at the Record Date.

See “The Arrangement – Voting Agreements”.

Treatment of Other Securities

As contemplated by the terms of the APM Option Plan shall cease to represent the right to acquire APM Shares and they shall be replaced with New APM Options. Each APM Warrant shall, in accordance with its terms, entitle the holder thereof to acquire one New APM Share and the number of ICG Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio upon exercise of each APM Warrant held.

See “The Arrangement – Treatment of Other Securities”.

New APM (APM After the Arrangement)

Upon completion of the Arrangement, APM will continue to trade on the CSE under the symbol “USGD” with its registered and records office located at McMillan LLP, 1500-1055 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 4N7. The completion of the arrangement will allow APM to focus solely on the New APM Business.

ICG

ICG was incorporated on August 19, 2025 under the BCBA under the name “1553408 B.C. Ltd.”. On August 26, 2025, ICG changed its name to “ICG Resources Ltd.”. On November 24, 2025, ICG changed its name to “ICG Silver & Gold Ltd.”. ICG’s head office is located at 82 Richmond Street East, Toronto, ON M5C 1P1 and its registered and records office of ICG is located at McMillan LLP, 1500-1055 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6E 4N7.

Upon completion of the Arrangement, ICG will be a reporting issuer in the Provinces of Saskatchewan, Alberta, Ontario, British Columbia, and Nova Scotia. ICG is currently in the process of applying to the CSE for the listing of the ICG Shares on the CSE following the completion of the Arrangement. Any listing is subject to ICG fulfilling all


of the requirements of the CSE; however, there can be no assurance as to if or when such listing will occur. ICG’s primary objective will be to focus on the ICG Business.

See Appendix F – “Information Concerning ICG After The Arrangement”.

(g) no order or decree restraining or enjoining the consummation of the Arrangement or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement being in force immediately before the Effective Time;

Amendment and Termination of the Arrangement Agreement and Plan of Arrangement

The Arrangement Agreement may not be varied in its terms or amended by oral agreement or otherwise other than by an instrument in writing dated subsequent to the date thereof, executed by a duly authorized representative of each of ICG and APM.

The Arrangement Agreement may, at any time before or after the holding of the Meeting, and before or after the granting of the Final Order, be terminated and the Plan of Arrangement withdrawn by direction of the APM Board without further action on the part of the APM Shareholders, with the APM Board retaining the absolute discretion to elect to terminate the Arrangement Agreement and discontinue efforts to effect the Plan of Arrangement for whatever reason it may consider appropriate.

APM may amend, modify and supplement the Plan of Arrangement at any time, provided that any amendment or supplement must be contained in a written document which is filed with the Court and, if made following the Meeting, approved by the Court and communicated to APM Shareholders in the manner required by the Court, if so required.

See “The Arrangement – The Arrangement Agreement – Amendment and Termination”.

Procedure for Exchange of APM Shares and ICG Shares

The exchange of APM Shares for New APM Shares and ICG Shares will be effected automatically on closing. APM Shareholders of record as of the Effective Date will receive their entitlements without the need to submit a letter of transmittal or take any further action.

See “The Arrangement – Procedure for Exchange of APM Shares”.

Procedure for Exchange of APM Options

Following the Effective Time, each APM Option will be deemed to represent an option to purchase New APM on the same terms and conditions, and having the same rights and attributes, as were applicable to such APM Option immediately prior to the Effective Time. Each existing agreement evidencing an APM Option will be deemed, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, to evidence the corresponding New APM Option, and no delivery of new option agreements or exchange of certificates shall be required. All agreements evidencing APM Options in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall continue in full force and effect following the Effective Time, as so amended and deemed.

See “The Arrangement – Procedure for Exchange of APM Shares”.

Right to New APM Shares and ICG Shares

Only APM Shareholders immediately before the Effective Time will be entitled to receive New APM Shares and ICG Shares at the Effective Time. Any holder of APM Options who has not exercised his or her APM Options before the Effective Time will not be entitled to receive New APM Shares and ICG Shares pursuant to the Arrangement. However, any holder of APM Options who have not exercised his or her APM Options will be entitled to receive New APM Options, which entitle the holder thereof to acquire New APM Shares upon the exercise of such New APM Options on the same terms and conditions as their original APM Options, except that the exercise price will be reduced by deemed value of the ICG Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio. Any holder of an APM Warrant who has not exercised his or her APM Warrant before the Effective Time will, in accordance with the terms of their APM Warrant, be entitled to acquire one New APM Share the number of ICG Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio upon exercise of each APM Warrant held. See “The Arrangement– Treatment of Other Securities”.

Dissent Rights

The Interim Order provides that each APM Shareholder who dissents from the Arrangement Resolution in accordance with sections 242 to 247 of the BCBCA as modified by the Interim Order, will be entitled, if the Arrangement becomes effective, to be paid to have his or her APM Shares cancelled in exchange for a cash payment from APM equal to the fair value of his or her APM Shares as of the day of the Meeting in accordance with the provisions of the Interim Order.

In order to validly dissent, an APM Shareholder must not vote any APM Shares in respect of which Dissent Rights have been exercised in favour of the Arrangement Resolution, must provide APM with written objection to the Arrangement by 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) on February 23, 2026, or two Business Days before any adjournment or postponement of the Meeting, and must otherwise comply with the Dissent Procedures provided in the Interim Order. A Non-Registered Holder who wishes to exercise Dissent Rights must arrange for the Registered APM Shareholder(s) holding its APM Shares to deliver the Dissent Notice.

If a Dissenting Shareholder fails to strictly comply with the requirements of the Dissent Rights set out in the Interim Order, it will lose its Dissent Rights. The Dissent Rights under the BCBCA are set out in their entirety in Appendix D to this Circular.


See "The Arrangement — Dissent Rights".

Summary of Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations

A summary of certain of the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable to Holders (as defined herein) in respect of the Arrangement are described under the heading "Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations" in this Circular.

No Opinion, Advice or Representation as to U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

No opinion, advice or representation is being provided herein with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Arrangement to APM Shareholders, APM Optionholders or APM Warrantholders. This Circular has not been prepared to address the tax consequences under any U.S. Federal, State, local or non-U.S. tax laws, and APM Shareholders, APM Optionholders and APM Warrantholders who are residents in, or subject to tax in, the United States are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. tax consequences applicable to their particular circumstances.

Court Approval

The Arrangement requires Court approval under the BCBCA. Before the mailing of this Circular, APM obtained the Interim Order providing for the calling and holding of the Meeting, the Dissent Rights and certain other procedural matters. Following receipt of APM Shareholder Approval, APM intends to make application to the Court for the Final Order at 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time), or as soon thereafter as counsel may be heard, on February 27, 2026, at the Courthouse, 800 Smithe Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, or at any other date and time as the Court may direct. McMillan LLP, counsel to APM, has advised that, in deciding whether to grant the Final Order, the Court will consider, among other things, the fairness of the Arrangement to APM Shareholders.

Any APM Shareholder who wishes to appear or be represented and to present evidence or arguments at that hearing must file and serve a response to petition no later than 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on February 25, 2026, along with any other documents required in the form prescribed by the Supreme Court Civil Rules with the Court, and deliver a copy of the filed response together with a copy of all materials on which such APM Shareholder or interested party intends to rely at the hearing of the petition, including an outline of such person's proposed submission, to APM c/o McMillan LLP, PO Box 11117, Suite 1500 – 1055 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC V6E 4N7, Attn: Arman Farahani. Such Persons should consult with their legal advisors as to the necessary requirements. In the event that the hearing is adjourned then, subject to further order of the Court, only those persons having previously filed and served a notice of appearance will be given notice of the adjournment.

The Court may approve the Arrangement either as proposed or as amended in any manner the Court may direct, and subject to compliance with such terms and conditions, if any, as the Court sees fit.

The Court will be informed, before the hearing, that the Final Order will form the basis for an exemption from registration of the New APM Shares and the ICG Shares to be issued, distributed and exchanged, as applicable, and the New APM Options issued, distributed and exchanged, as applicable, in connection with the Arrangement under the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption. See "The Arrangement — Court Approval of the Arrangement".

Regulatory Law Matters and Securities Law Matters

APM is a reporting issuer in British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Alberta, Ontario and Nova Scotia. The APM Shares currently trade on the CSE. The existing APM Shares are expected to be ne delisted from the CSE effective as of the close of trading on the Closing Date. The new APM Shares, which will be identical in every relevant respect to the APM Shares and which are being distributed pursuant to the Arrangement, are expected to commence trading on the CSE at the opening of trading on the trading day immediately following the Closing Date.

Canadian Securities Laws Matters

The distribution of the New APM Shares, ICG Shares and New APM Options pursuant to the Arrangement will constitute a distribution of securities which is exempt from the prospectus requirements of Canadian Securities Laws


and is exempt from or otherwise is not subject to the registration requirements under applicable Canadian Securities Laws. The New APM Shares and ICG Shares received pursuant to the Arrangement will not bear any legend under Canadian Securities Laws and may be resold through registered dealers in each of the provinces of Canada provided that: (a) ICG and New APM are and have been a reporting issuer in a jurisdiction in Canada for the four months immediately preceding the trade; (b) the trade is not a “control distribution” as defined in NI 45-102; (c) no unusual effort is made to prepare the market or to create a demand for the New APM Shares and ICG Shares; (d) no extraordinary commission or consideration is paid to a Person in respect of such sale; and (e) if the selling securityholder is an insider or officer of New APM or ICG, the selling securityholder has no reasonable grounds to believe that New APM or ICG is in default of applicable Securities Laws. For the purposes of (a) above, ICG satisfies the four month requirement by virtue of the fact that it is a party to the Arrangement Agreement with APM, which will have been a reporting issuer in a jurisdiction in Canada for at least four months prior to the date of distribution.

Each APM Shareholder is urged to consult his, her or its professional advisors to determine the Canadian conditions and restrictions applicable to trades in New APM Shares and ICG Shares.

See “The Arrangement – CSE Requirements, Regulatory Law and Securities Law Matters”.

United States Securities Laws Matters

None of the New APM Shares, ICG Shares and New APM Options issued, distributed and exchanged, as applicable, pursuant to the Arrangement, have been or will be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or the Securities Laws of any state of the United States, and will each be issued, distributed and exchanged, as applicable, in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption and exemptions provided under the Securities Laws of each state of the United States in which APM Shareholders reside.

The restrictions on resale of shares imposed by the U.S. Securities Act will depend on whether a holder of the New APM Shares or the ICG Shares, as applicable, issued or distributed pursuant to the Arrangement is an “affiliate” of New APM or ICG, as applicable, after the Arrangement or within 90 days prior to the Effective Date. As defined in Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act, an “affiliate” of an issuer is a person that directly, or indirectly, through one or more Intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, such issuer.

The ICG Shares will not be a registered class of securities under the U.S. Exchange Act and will not be listed for trading on a stock exchange in the United States.

See “The Arrangement – CSE Requirements, Regulatory Law and Securities Law Matters – United States Securities Laws Matters”.

Risk Factors

APM Shareholders should carefully consider the risk factors relating to the Arrangement. Some of these risks include, but are not limited to: the Arrangement Agreement may be terminated in certain circumstances; there can be no certainty that all conditions precedent to the Arrangement will be satisfied; another transaction on terms as favourable as the Arrangement may not be available to APM; APM and ICG may be the target of legal claims; there are possible tax consequences of the Arrangement; APM Shareholders will receive a fixed number of ICG Shares; APM will incur costs even if the Arrangement is not completed; APM directors and executive officers may have different interests in the Arrangement than APM Shareholders; the market price of APM Shares may decline if the Arrangement is not completed; and New APM and ICG will incur their own expenses going forward. For more information see “The Arrangement - Risks Associated with the Arrangement”.

Additional risks and uncertainties, including those currently unknown or considered immaterial by APM may also adversely affect the APM Shares, the New APM Shares, the ICG Shares, the New APM Options, the APM Warrants, the ICG Business or the New APM Business following the Arrangement. In addition to the risk factors relating to the Arrangement set out in this Circular, APM Shareholders should also carefully consider the risk factors associated with the businesses of APM after the Arrangement and ICG included in this Circular, including the documents incorporated by reference therein. See “The Arrangement - Risks Associated with the Arrangement” in this Circular and “Appendix F – Information Concerning ICG After The Arrangement - Risk Factors”.

General Proxy Information

Solicitation of Proxies

This Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management of APM for use at the Meeting, to be held on February 25, 2026, at the time and place and for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Meeting. While it is expected that the solicitation will be primarily by mail, proxies may be solicited personally or by telephone by the directors, officers and regular employees of APM at nominal cost. All costs of solicitation by management will be borne by APM.

How a Vote is Passed

At the Meeting, APM Shareholders will be asked, among other things, to consider and to vote to approve the Arrangement Resolution. To be effective, the Arrangement Resolution must be approved by at least two-thirds of the votes cast in respect of the Arrangement Resolution by APM Shareholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting, on the basis of one vote per APM Share.

All of the other matters that will come to a vote at the Meeting, as described in this Circular, are ordinary resolutions and can be passed by a simple majority of APM Shareholders – that is, if more than half of the votes of APM Shareholders that are cast are in favour, the resolution is approved.

The quorum for the Meeting is at least one person who is, or who represent by proxy, APM Shareholders who, in the aggregate, hold at least 5% of the issued APM Shares as of the Record Date.

Who can vote?

If you are a Registered APM Shareholder as at the Record Date, being January 2, 2026, you are entitled to attend at the Meeting and cast a vote for the Arrangement Resolution. Additionally, if you are a Registered APM Shareholder, you are entitled to attend the Meeting and cast a vote for each APM Share registered in your name on all other resolutions put before the Meeting. If the APM Shares are registered in the name of a corporation, a duly authorized officer of the corporation may attend on its behalf, but documentation indicating such officer’s authority should be presented at the Meeting. If you are a Registered APM Shareholder but do not wish to, or cannot, attend the Meeting in person you can appoint someone who will attend the Meeting and act as your proxyholder to vote in accordance with your instructions. If your APM Shares are registered in the name of a “nominee” (usually a bank, trust company, securities dealer or other financial institution) you should refer to the section entitled “Non-Registered Holders” set out below.

It is important that your APM Shares are represented at the Meeting regardless of the number of APM Shares you hold. If you will not be attending the Meeting in person, we encourage you to complete, date, sign and return your form of proxy as soon as possible so that your APM Shares will be represented.

What is a Proxy?

A form of proxy is a document that authorizes someone to attend the Meeting and cast your votes for you. We have enclosed a form of proxy with this Circular. You should use it to appoint a proxyholder, although you can also use any other legal form of proxy.

Appointing a Proxyholder

The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy are Warwick Smith and Joness Lang, the Chief Executive Officer and President, respectively, of APM. AN APM SHAREHOLDER WHO WISHES TO APPOINT SOME OTHER PERSON TO REPRESENT SUCH APM SHAREHOLDER AT THE MEETING MAY DO SO BY CROSSING OUT THE NAMES ON THE FORM OF PROXY AND INSERTING THE NAME OF THE PERSON PROPOSED IN THE BLANK SPACE PROVIDED IN THE ENCLOSED FORM OF PROXY. SUCH OTHER PERSON NEED NOT BE AN APM SHAREHOLDER. TO VOTE YOUR APM SHARES, YOUR PROXYHOLDER MUST ATTEND THE MEETING. If you do not fill a name in the blank space in the


enclosed form of proxy, the persons named in the form of proxy (Warwick Smith and Joness Lang, the Chief Executive Officer and President, respectively) are appointed to act as your proxyholder.

Regardless of who you appoint as your proxyholder, you can either instruct that person or company how you want to vote or you can let him or her decide for you. You can do this by completing a form of proxy. In order to be valid, you must return the completed form of proxy forty-eight (48) hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, before the time of the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof to our transfer agent, TSX Trust, by mail at its office at 733 Seymour Street, Suite 2310, Vancouver, BC V6B 0S6. Proxies may also be voted online at www.voteproxyonline.com by inserting the 12-digit control number listed on your proxy.

Instructing your Proxy and Exercise of Discretion by your Proxy

You may indicate on your form of proxy how you wish your proxyholder to vote your APM Shares. To do this, simply mark the appropriate boxes on the form of proxy. If you do this, your proxyholder must vote your APM Shares in accordance with the instructions you have given.

If you do not give any instructions as to how to vote on a particular issue to be decided at the Meeting, your proxyholder can vote your securities as he or she thinks fit. If you have appointed the persons designated in the form of proxy as your proxyholder they will, unless you give contrary instructions, vote FOR the Arrangement Resolution and FOR all other matters put forth at the Meeting.

Further details about these matters are set out in this Circular. The enclosed form of proxy gives the persons named on it the authority to use their discretion in voting on amendments or variations to matters identified on the Notice of Meeting. At the time of printing this Circular, the management of APM is not aware of any other matter to be presented for action at the Meeting. If, however, other matters do properly come before the Meeting, the persons named on the enclosed form of proxy will vote on them in accordance with their best judgment, pursuant to the discretionary authority conferred by the form of proxy with respect to such matters.

Revocability of Proxy

A Registered APM Shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it by an instrument in writing executed by such Registered APM Shareholder by his or her attorney authorized in writing or, where the APM Shareholder is a corporation, by a duly authorized officer or attorney of the corporation, and delivered TSX Trust, by mail at its office at 733 Seymour Street, Suite 2310, Vancouver, BC V6B 0S6, or online at www.voteproxyonline.com, at any time up to and including by 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) on the last Business Day preceding the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, or to the Chair of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, or in any other manner provided by Law. A revocation of a proxy does not affect any matter on which a vote has been taken before the revocation.

Voting by APM Shareholders

Only Registered APM Shareholders or duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote in person at the Meeting. A holder of APM Shares may own such shares in one or both of the following ways:

  1. If an APM Shareholder is in possession of a physical share certificate or DRS Advice Statement, such APM Shareholder is a Registered APM Shareholder and his, her or its name and address are maintained by APM through TSX Trust.
  2. If an APM Shareholder owns APM Shares through a bank, broker, nominee, or other Intermediary such APM Shareholder is a "Non-Registered Holder" or "beneficial" APM Shareholder and he, she or it will not have a physical share certificate or DRS Advice Statement. Such APM Shareholder will have an account statement from his or her Intermediary as evidence of share ownership.

If you are not sure whether you are a Registered APM Shareholder, please contact TSX Trust toll free at 1-866-600-5869, or by email at [email protected]


A Registered APM Shareholder may vote a proxy in his, her, or its own name at any time by facsimile, internet or by mail in accordance with the instructions appearing on the enclosed form of proxy and/or may attend the Meeting and vote in person. Because a Registered APM Shareholder is known to APM and TSX Trust, his, her, or its account can be confirmed and his, her, or its vote recorded or changed if such Registered APM Shareholder has previously voted.

Non-Registered Holders

Most APM Shareholders are Non-Registered Holders or “beneficial” APM Shareholders. Their APM Shares are registered in the name of an Intermediary, such as a securities broker, financial institution, trustee, custodian or other nominee who holds the shares on their behalf, or in the name of a clearing agency, such as CDS or the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTC), in which the Intermediary is a participant. Intermediaries have obligations to forward meeting materials to Non-Registered Holders, unless otherwise instructed by the holder (and as required by regulation in some cases, despite instructions).

These Meeting Materials are being sent to both registered and non-registered owners of the securities of APM. If you are a non-registered owner, and APM or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of securities, have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the intermediary holding on your behalf. By choosing to send these materials to you directly, APM (and not the intermediary holding on your behalf) has assumed responsibility for (i) delivering these materials to you, and (ii) executing your proper voting instructions. Please return your voting instructions as specified in your request for voting instructions.

In accordance with the requirements of the Canadian Securities Administrators and NI 54-101, APM is sending Meeting Materials directly to NOBOs – that is, Non-Registered Holders who have provided instructions to an Intermediary that such Non-Registered Holder does not object to the Intermediary disclosing ownership information about the beneficial owner. The Meeting Materials will include a scannable VIF. These VIFs are to be completed and returned to TSX Trust by mail, email or by facsimile. In addition, TSX Trust provides Internet voting as described on the VIF itself which contain complete instructions. TSX Trust will tabulate the results of the VIFs received from NOBOs and will provide appropriate instructions at the Meeting with respect to the APM Shares represented by the VIFs they receive.

Management of APM does not intend to pay for intermediaries to forward to OBOs under National Instrument 54-101 the proxy-related materials and Form 54-101F7 Request for Voting Instructions Made by Intermediary, and, in the case of an OBO, the OBO will not receive the materials unless the OBO’s intermediary assumes the cost of delivery.

Intermediaries are required to seek voting instructions from Non-Registered Holders in advance of shareholder meetings. Every intermediary has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions to clients.

You should carefully follow the instructions of your broker or intermediary in order to ensure that your APM Shares are voted at the Meeting.

The form of proxy supplied to you by your broker will be similar to the proxy provided to Registered APM Shareholders by APM. However, its purpose is limited to instructing the intermediary on how to vote your APM Shares on your behalf. Most brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) in Canada and in the United States. Broadridge mails a VIF in lieu of a proxy provided by APM. The VIF will name the same persons as APM’s proxy to represent your APM Shares at the Meeting. You have the right to appoint a person (who need not be a beneficial APM Shareholder), other than any of the persons designated in the VIF to represent your APM Shares at the Meeting and that person may be you. To exercise this right, insert the name of the desired representative (which may be you), in the blank space provided in the VIF. The completed VIF must then be returned to Broadridge by mail or facsimile or given to Broadridge by phone or over the internet, in accordance with Broadridge’s instructions. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting voting of APM Shares to be represented at the Meeting. If you receive a VIF from Broadridge, the VIF must be completed and returned to Broadridge, in accordance with Broadridge’s instructions, well in advance of the Meeting in order to have the APM Shares voted at the Meeting, or to have an alternate representative duly appointed to attend the Meeting and vote your APM Shares.

Time, less the fair market value of the ICG Shares distributed on such exchange as determined by the APM Board.

Background to the Arrangement

The provisions of the Arrangement Agreement are the result of arm’s length negotiations between representatives of APM and ICG and their respective financial and legal advisors. The Arrangement is primarily being conducted in order for APM to unlock value for APM Shareholders by exchanging past-producing silver and gold assets in Nevada that are not currently a core focus for APM, for a significant equity interest in a focused exploration company dedicated to advancing the district. The following is a summary of the material events which led to the negotiations of the Arrangement Agreement and the meetings, negotiations, discussions and actions between APM and ICG that preceded the execution and public announcement of the Arrangement Agreement, the Share Exchange Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement. This summary does not purport to be exhaustive.

As part of its continuing mandate to strengthen APM’s business and enhance value, the APM Board and APM’s senior management have, from time to time, considered and assessed possible strategic and other opportunities to better realize the potential of APM’s asset portfolio. In that regard, the APM Board has consistently evaluated a broad range of alternative value-enhancing proposals, including consideration of potential divestitures of certain assets or subsidiaries to maximize shareholder value. As part of this ongoing strategic review process, the APM Board determined that the divestiture of the Projects could represent an attractive opportunity to unlock value for APM Shareholders while allowing APM to focus on its core business operations.

In the spring of 2024, as part of its ongoing strategic review process, APM engaged in discussions with an arm’s length third party regarding the potential sale of the Tuscarora project. The parties conducted preliminary due diligence and negotiated the principal terms of a potential transaction, including the valuation of the Tuscarora project and the structure of the consideration to be received by APM. The discussions progressed to the point where APM’s legal counsel prepared and circulated a draft definitive agreement to the third party for review and comment. The parties engaged in negotiations regarding the terms of the proposed transaction throughout the spring and summer of 2024. The proposed terms were substantially similar to those ultimately agreed to with ICG under the Arrangement. However, on August 8, 2024, the third party elected to terminate discussions in order to pursue alternative strategic opportunities and the proposed transaction did not proceed.

Following the termination of discussions with the third party, the APM Board continued to evaluate alternative strategic opportunities for the Projects. APM’s management contacted numerous other potential purchasers and strategic partners and engaged in preliminary discussions regarding potential transactions over the following twelve months. However, none of these discussions progressed to a definitive transaction.

In this context, on August 25, 2025, ICG’s management contacted APM’s management to discuss a potential transaction pursuant to which ICG would acquire, directly or indirectly, certain mineral assets of APM. Upon learning of ICG’s interest in a potential transaction, Warwick Smith (Chief Executive Officer and Director of APM), Joness Lang (President and Director of APM), and Ali Hakimzadeh (Director of APM) each disclosed to the APM Board that they had made a pre-existing commitment to acquire an interest in ICG, which was subsequently consummated in early October 2025 through the acquisition by each of 1,000,000 ICG Shares at a price of $0.03 per ICG Share. As a result, the APM Board determined that Messrs. Smith, Lang, and Hakimzadeh had a potential conflict of interest with respect to a proposed transaction between APM and ICG. The APM Board carefully considered the appropriate governance framework to address these conflicts of interest. Following deliberation and consultation with legal counsel, the APM Board adopted procedural safeguards to ensure that the APM Board’s deliberations and decision-making process were conducted free from the interference or influence of any directors with a conflict of interest. To implement this approach, the APM Board established protocols whereby (i) Messrs. Smith, Lang, and Hakimzadeh would abstain from all deliberations and voting on matters related to the proposed transaction with ICG; (ii) APM’s management provided regular updates regarding the status of negotiations and key transaction terms exclusively to those members of the APM Board who did not have a conflict of interest with respect to the Arrangement (the “Conflict-Free Directors”), who would be responsible for evaluating, negotiating, and approving the terms of the proposed transaction; and (iii) the Conflict-Free Directors conducted their review and deliberations independently, with the benefit of advice from APM’s external advisors.

In the preliminary discussion with ICG, ICG’s management expressed an interest in acquiring the Projects and outlined its strategic vision for advancing the assets. Having regard to ICG management’s experience and expertise in the mining sector and capital markets execution, particularly in project development, operations and finance, the Conflict-Free Directors determined that it was in the best interests of APM and APM Shareholders to pursue preliminary discussions with ICG regarding a potential transaction.

Throughout the period from late August to early September 2025, APM’s senior management kept the Conflict-Free Directors fully informed regarding the progress of preliminary discussions with ICG. During this period, APM and ICG, with the support of their respective advisors, exchanged preliminary information and conducted various discussions regarding the proposed transaction structure, including the consideration to be paid by ICG for the acquisition of CGI and APMUS. Under the oversight of the Conflict-Free Directors, APM’s legal counsel prepared a draft non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI”) setting out the proposed terms of the transaction, which was reviewed and revised by the Conflict-Free Directors prior to delivery to ICG.

On September 5, 2025, APM delivered to ICG the LOI setting out the proposed terms pursuant to which APM and ICG would endeavor to enter into a legally binding transaction agreement providing for the acquisition by ICG from APM of the Projects (through the acquisition of CGI and APMUS) in exchange for ICG Shares and certain contingent payments, and the completion of a plan of arrangement by APM to distribute a portion of the ICG Shares to APM Shareholders. Under the LOI, each party agreed to negotiate in good faith and exclusively with the other party to work toward a mutually agreeable definitive agreement with an objective of signing the definitive agreement by November 1, 2025 and completing the transaction within 120 days after execution.

On September 16, 2025, the Conflict-Free Directors met to receive an update on the status of discussions with ICG following the delivery of the LOI. The Conflict-Free Directors discussed the proposed transaction and authorized management to continue negotiations with ICG and to report back to the APM Board on the progress of discussions. The Conflict-Free Directors also determined that it would be appropriate to engage a financial advisor to provide an independent fairness opinion in connection with the proposed transaction and authorized management to explore options for a suitable fairness advisor for consideration by the Conflict-Free Directors.

On October 3, 2025, ICG delivered comments on the draft LOI to APM. APM’s management and legal advisors reviewed ICG’s comments under the oversight of the Conflict-Free Directors, who provided direction with respect to APM’s response and the key terms to be negotiated. Throughout early October 2025, APM and ICG continued to negotiate the terms of the LOI, with the Conflict-Free Directors remaining actively involved in the process and receiving regular updates from management regarding ICG’s comments and the parties’ discussions on principal commercial terms.

On October 10, 2025, APM and ICG entered into a mutual non-disclosure agreement to facilitate the exchange of confidential information in connection with the proposed transaction and to enable the conduct of due diligence.

On October 14, 2025, following negotiations conducted under the oversight of the Conflict-Free Directors, APM and ICG executed the LOI. Following execution of the LOI, the parties commenced due diligence and continued negotiations toward the execution of definitive agreements. Throughout this process, the Conflict-Free Directors maintained active oversight of the transaction, monitored the progress of the due diligence and negotiations, and provided ongoing guidance to management and APM’s advisors with respect to material terms and conditions.

Following the execution of the LOI, management presented to the Conflict-Free Directors its analysis of potential financial advisors to provide an independent fairness opinion in connection with the proposed transaction. After reviewing management’s analysis and considering a number of potential advisors, the Conflict-Free Directors selected Evans & Evans to act as financial advisor to APM. In selecting Evans & Evans, the Conflict-Free Directors considered various factors, including Evans & Evans’ qualifications, experience and reputation in providing financial advisory services and fairness opinions in connection with transactions similar to the Arrangement, its knowledge of APM’s business and the mining industry, and the reasonableness of its proposed fees. Evans & Evans confirmed to the Conflict-Free Directors that it was independent of APM and ICG and did not have any material relationship with or interest in APM, ICG or any of their respective affiliates that would affect its ability to provide an independent fairness opinion. The Conflict-Free Directors also considered that Evans & Evans would deliver a comprehensive long-form

15


written opinion containing a fulsome financial analysis to support its fairness conclusion. Evans & Evans was engaged on October 23, 2025 on a fixed fee basis pursuant to an engagement letter with APM.

Throughout October and November 2025, the Parties, with the support of their respective advisors, continued to negotiate the terms of the proposed transaction. Under the oversight of the Conflict-Free Directors, APM's legal counsel prepared and circulated drafts of the Arrangement Agreement, the Share Exchange Agreement, and the Voting Agreements, which were exchanged with ICG's legal counsel and revised based on comments received from both parties. The Conflict-Free Directors remained actively involved in overseeing the negotiation process and provided direction to APM's management and advisors on key transaction terms.

On November 19, 2025, the Conflict-Free Directors met to receive a further update on the status of negotiations with ICG. APM's management provided the Conflict-Free Directors with an overview of the proposed transaction terms, including the structure of the consideration to be received by APM, which would consist of ICG Shares and a contingent payment. The Conflict-Free Directors discussed the proposed terms and conditions and the potential benefits and risks to APM and the APM Shareholders. The Conflict-Free Directors also consulted with APM's legal advisors regarding the governance protocols in place to manage the conflicts of interest and to ensure that the transaction was being negotiated on terms that were fair to APM Shareholders. The Conflict-Free Directors received an update on the status of Evans & Evans' work in connection with the fairness opinion and discussed the anticipated timeline for receipt of the opinion. The Conflict-Free Directors authorized management to continue negotiations with ICG and to work toward finalizing the definitive agreements.

Throughout November and early December 2025, the Parties, with the support of their respective advisors, continued to exchange drafts of the Arrangement Agreement, the Share Exchange Agreement, and the Voting Agreements and conducted various discussions, assessments, reviews and negotiations regarding the terms and conditions of the proposed transaction. Evans & Evans continued its work in connection with the fairness opinion and coordinated with the Conflict-Free Directors regarding timing for delivery of the opinion.

On December 5, 2025, the APM Board held a meeting with members of APM's senior management and APM's legal and financial advisors to evaluate and discuss the final form of the Arrangement Agreement and ancillary documents. Evans & Evans presented its fairness analysis to the Conflict-Free Directors and rendered its oral opinion (which was subsequently formalized in the written Fairness Opinion addressed to the APM Board dated the same date) as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to APM Shareholders of the consideration to be received by APM in the Arrangement pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement. After reviewing the substantially final form of the Arrangement Agreement, the Share Exchange Agreement, and the Voting Agreements, the Conflict-Free Directors discussed various key provisions of the definitive agreements with APM's legal counsel and answered questions regarding the proposed transaction.

Upon evaluation of the merits of the proposed Arrangement, including consideration of the Fairness Opinion and any alternatives to the proposed Arrangement, the APM Board (with conflicted directors abstaining) unanimously approved the execution of the definitive agreements, including the Arrangement Agreement, the Share Exchange Agreement, and the Voting Agreements. Following extensive review and discussion of the proposed transaction by the Conflict-Free Directors, including the reasons and risks noted under the heading "The Arrangement – Reasons for the Arrangement", and after consulting with APM's legal and financial advisors and, in particular, taking into account the Fairness Opinion, the APM Board (with conflicted directors abstaining) unanimously determined, among other things: (i) that the Arrangement is in the best interests of APM; (ii) that the Arrangement, the Arrangement Agreement and the Share Exchange Agreement are fair, from a financial point of view, to the APM Shareholders; and (iii) to recommend that APM Shareholders vote in favor of the Arrangement Resolution.

Following the APM Board meeting, legal counsel to APM and ICG continued to work to prepare the final draft of the Arrangement Agreement, the Share Exchange Agreement, the Plan of Arrangement and ancillary documents. The definitive agreements were executed on December 7, 2025.

Concurrently with the execution of the Arrangement Agreement and the Share Exchange Agreement, each of the directors and officers of APM, holding an aggregate of approximately $1.2\%$ of all issued and outstanding APM Shares as of such date, entered into the Voting Agreements pursuant to which they agreed, among other things, to vote all of

16


the APM Shares beneficially owned or over which control or direction is exercised by them in favor of the Arrangement, subject to, and in accordance with the Voting Agreements.

A news release regarding the Arrangement and the entering into of the definitive agreements was issued by APM prior to the open of market on December 8, 2025.

On January 21, 2026, APM and ICG entered into an amending agreement to the Arrangement Agreement. The amendment was non-material in nature and was intended to streamline the treatment of convertible securities in view of tax, securities and other considerations, and to ensure the most effective delivery of consideration shares.

The APM Board has reviewed and considered a significant amount of information and considered a number of factors relating to the Arrangement with the benefit of advice from APM’s senior management and its financial, legal and technical advisors. The following is a summary of the principal reasons for the unanimous recommendation of the APM Board (with conflicted directors abstaining) that APM Shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement Resolution:

  • Continued Participation by APM Shareholders in the Projects Through ICG. APM Shareholders, through their ownership of ICG Shares, will continue to participate in the value creation associated with the exploration, development and operation of the Projects. APM Shareholders will hold approximately 19% of the issued and outstanding ICG Shares upon completion of the Arrangement.
  • Continued Participation by APM Shareholders in the New APM Business. APM Shareholders, through their ownership of all of the issued and outstanding New APM Shares, will continue to participate in the value associated with the development, operation, and growth of the New APM Business.
  • Fairness Opinion. Evans & Evans provided its opinion to the APM Board to the effect that, as of December 5, 2025 and based upon and subject to the scope of the review, analysis undertaken and various assumptions, limitations and qualifications set out in the Fairness Opinion, the ICG Shares to be received under the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to APM Shareholders.
  • Likelihood of the Arrangement Being Completed. The likelihood of the Arrangement being completed is considered to be high, in light of the experience, reputation and financial capability of ICG and the absence of significant closing conditions, other than the APM Shareholder Approval and the approval by the Court of the Arrangement, the exercise by no more than 5% of the APM Shareholders of their Dissent Rights, and other customary closing conditions.
  • Approval of APM Shareholders and the Court are Required. The Arrangement must be approved by at least two-thirds of the votes cast in respect of the Arrangement Resolution by APM Shareholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting, on the basis of one vote per APM Share. The Arrangement must also be sanctioned by the Court, which will consider the fairness of the Arrangement to APM Shareholders.
  • Dissent Rights. Registered APM Shareholders who oppose the Arrangement may, on strict compliance with certain conditions, exercise their Dissent Rights and receive the fair value of the Dissent Shares in accordance with the Arrangement.
  • Voting Support Agreements. All of the directors and officers of APM (who collectively hold approximately 1.2% of the outstanding APM Share) have entered into the Voting Agreements pursuant to which they agreed to vote in favour of the Arrangement.

In view of the wide variety of factors and information considered in connection with their evaluation of the Arrangement, the APM Board did not find it practicable to, and therefore did not, quantify or otherwise attempt to assign any relative weight to each specific factor or item of information considered in reaching their conclusions and recommendations. In addition, individual members of the APM Board may have given different weights to different factors or items of information.

Recommendation of the APM Board

After careful consideration of, among other things, the factors described above under the heading “The Arrangement-Reasons for the Arrangement”, the APM Board (with conflicting directors abstaining) has unanimously determined that the Plan of Arrangement is fair to APM Shareholders and is in the best interests of APM. Accordingly, the APM Board unanimously recommends (with conflicting directors abstaining) that APM Shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement Resolution.

Each director of APM has entered into a Voting Agreement pursuant to which he has agreed to to vote all of his APM Shares in favor of the Arrangement Resolution, subject to the terms of the Arrangement Agreement.

Treatment of Other Securities

As contemplated by the terms of the APM Option Plan, the APM Options shall cease to represent the right to acquire APM Shares and they shall be replaced with New APM Options. In accordance with its terms, each APM Warrant will, following the Effective Time, entitle the holder thereof to acquire one New APM Share and approximately the number of ICG Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio upon exercise of each APM Warrant held.

Each APM Optionholder will be entitled to receive one New APM Option for each APM Option held by such holder immediately before the Effective Time. Each New APM Option will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one New APM Share on the same terms and conditions as the APM Option so exchanged, except that the exercise price of the New APM Option shall be reduced by the deemed value of that number of ICG Shares that is equal to the Exchange Ratio at the Effective Time, provided that the exercise price of the New APM Option shall be further adjusted to the extent, if any, required to ensure that the aggregate In the Money Amount of the New APM Option immediately after the exchange does not exceed the In the Money Amount immediately before the exchange of the APM Option so exchanged.

The APM Warrants will not be amended or exchanged for new securities. However, each APM Warrantholder will, following the Effective Time and in accordance with the terms of their APM Warrants, be entitled to acquire one New APM Share and approximately the number of ICG Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio upon exercise of each APM Warrant held.

Fairness Opinion

Evans & Evans was engaged by the APM Board to provide a written opinion, dated December 5, 2025 to the APM Board as to the fairness of the Arrangement, from a financial point of view, to APM Shareholders. Evans & Evans rendered its opinion that, as of the date of the Fairness Opinion, based upon and subject to the various considerations set forth in the Fairness Opinion, the full text of which is attached as Appendix C to this Circular, including the scope of review, limitations and assumptions, the proposed Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of APM Shares.

The summary of the Fairness Opinion set forth is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Fairness Opinion. The Fairness Opinion states that it may not be used, or relied upon, by any person other than the APM Board. However, the Fairness Opinion includes the written consent of Evans & Evans to the inclusion of the Fairness Opinion in any materials provided to APM Shareholders, and may be shared with the Court approving the Interim Order and the Final Order, the SEC and appropriate securities commissions in Canada.

The Fairness Opinion is subject to various assumptions and limitations and is based upon the scope of review described in the Fairness Opinion. In addition, the basis of how fairness was determined for the purpose of the Fairness Opinion is summarized in the Fairness Opinion. The Fairness Opinion is expressly limited to these matters.

20

Approach to Fairness

For the purposes of the Fairness Opinion, Evans & Evans considered that the Arrangement would be fair, from a financial point of view, from the perspective of the holders of APM Shares as a group and did not consider the specific circumstances of any particular shareholder, including with regard to income tax considerations.

Independence of Evans & Evans

Evans & Evans has confirmed that it is not the current auditor of APM and is not an associated or affiliated entity or insider of APM. Evans & Evans has also confirmed that it has no past, present or prospective interest in APM or ICG or any entity that is the subject of the Fairness Opinion, and that Evans & Evans have no personal interest with respect to the parties involved. None of the fees received by Evans & Evans were contingent upon the outcome of the Arrangement.

Evans & Evans Conclusion

As of December 5, 2025, the date of the Fairness Opinion, based on Evans & Evans’s scope of review, assumptions and limitations, the proposed Arrangement and Exchange Ratio are fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of APM Shares.

Approval of the Arrangement Resolution

At the Meeting, the APM Shareholders will be asked to approve the Arrangement Resolution, the full text of which is set out in Appendix A to this Circular. In order for the Arrangement to become effective, as provided in the Interim Order and by the BCBCA, the Arrangement Resolution must be by at least two-thirds of the votes cast in respect of the Arrangement Resolution by APM Shareholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting, on the basis of one vote per APM Share. Should APM Shareholders fail to approve the Arrangement Resolution by the requisite threshold, the Arrangement will not be completed.

The APM Board (with conflicting directors abstaining) has approved the terms of the Arrangement Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement and recommends that the APM Shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement Resolution. See “The Arrangement - Recommendation of the APM Board” above.

Voting Agreements

ICG entered into Voting Agreements with all of the directors and officers of APM prior to the Record Date. The Voting Agreements set forth, among other things, the agreement of such APM Shareholders to vote their APM Shares in favour of the Arrangement. As of the Record Date, 2,529,500 of the outstanding APM Shares were subject to the Voting Agreements, representing approximately 1.2% of the outstanding APM Shares.

The Voting Agreements require voting support for the Arrangement and support for the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement and the Arrangement Agreement if pursued as an Alternative Transaction.

Each Supporting Shareholder has agreed to vote his or her owned (directly or indirectly) APM Shares, to the extent such person is so entitled, in favour of the Arrangement and the Arrangement Resolution. The Voting Agreements terminate upon: (i) mutual agreement; (ii) the Effective Time; (iii); the date of termination of the Arrangement Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof; or (iv) the breach of any representation, warranties or covenants set out in the Voting Agreements.

ICG has confirmed to APM that neither ICG nor any of its affiliates held any APM Shares (or securities convertible into APM Shares) as at the Record Date.

Completion of the Arrangement

The Arrangement is expected to become effective at 12:01 a.m. (or such other time as determined by APM) on the date following the date upon which all of the conditions to completion of the Arrangement as set out in the


Arrangement Agreement have been satisfied or waived in accordance with the Arrangement Agreement, all documents agreed to be delivered thereunder have been delivered to the satisfaction of the recipient, acting reasonably, and the filings required under Section 292 of the BCBCA have been filed with the Registrar. Completion of the Arrangement is expected to occur in early 2026; however, it is possible that completion may be delayed beyond this date if the conditions to completion of the Arrangement cannot be met on a timely basis, but in no event shall completion of the Arrangement occur later than the Outside Date, unless extended by mutual agreement between APM and ICG in accordance with the terms of the Arrangement Agreement.

Procedure for Exchange of APM Shares and ICG Shares

The exchange of APM Shares for New APM Shares and ICG Shares will be effected automatically on closing. APM Shareholders of record as of the Effective Date will receive their entitlements without the need to submit a letter of transmittal or take any further action.

For Non-Registered Holders, the New APM Shares and ICG Shares will be credited to their accounts through the standard procedures in place between CDS and their nominee. Non-Registered Holders should contact their nominee if they have any questions regarding this process or to confirm receipt of their new securities.

For Registered APM Shareholders, the New APM Shares and ICG Shares will be issued and registered in their names as of the Effective Date. Registered APM Shareholders will receive their DRS Advice Statements or, if requested, physical certificates representing their new holdings. There is no requirement to surrender existing share certificates or provide any documentation to receive the new certificates.

If you have any questions relating to the Arrangement please contact TSX Trust by telephone at 1-866-600-5869 by email to [email protected].

Before the Effective Date, APM and ICG will deposit, or cause to be deposited, with TSX Trust treasury directions directing TSX Trust to deliver sufficient certificates and DRS Advice Statements representing the New APM Shares and ICG Shares required to be issued to the APM Shareholders under the Arrangement (other than payments to APM Shareholders exercising their Dissent Rights) to be held by TSX Trust as agent and nominee for such APM Shareholders.

Lost Certificates

If any certificate which, immediately before the Effective Time, represented one or more outstanding APM Shares has been lost, stolen or destroyed, the holder should contact TSX Trust to arrange for the issuance of replacement certificates for the APM Shares. TSX Trust may require an affidavit and a lost certificate bond or similar security, as well as an indemnity, before issuing replacements.

Procedure for Exchange of APM Options

Following the Effective Time, New APM will deliver to each APM Optionholder an agreement representing the New APM Options, which such holder is entitled to receive under the Arrangement. Any agreement(s), if any, representing such holder's APM Options shall be deemed to be cancelled on the Effective Time and (without any action on the part of the holder of the APM Option), and each agreement relating to each APM Option, as applicable, will be terminated and of no further force and effect.

APM Optionholders who do not wish to receive New APM Options in exchange for their APM Options can exercise their APM Options and participate in the Arrangement on the same basis as APM Shareholders.

APM recommends that any APM Optionholders who wish to exercise their APM Options for APM Shares prior to the Arrangement should exercise such APM Options by 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) on February 23, 2026, or, if the Meeting is adjourned or postponed, two Business Days before the reconvened Meeting.

No Fractional Shares or Options to be Issued

No fractional ICG Shares shall be issued to any former APM Shareholder or to any APM Warrantholder on the exercise of APM Warrants. The number of ICG Shares to be issued to such former APM Shareholder or APM Warrantholder shall be rounded down to the nearest whole ICG Share and such former APM Shareholder or APM Warrantholder shall not be entitled to any compensation in respect of such fractional ICG Share. Any ICG Shares not distributed as a result of rounding down will be retained by APM or, if being issued in respect of the exercise of APM Warrants, cancelled by ICG.

Effects of the Arrangement on APM Shareholders' Rights

APM Shareholders receiving New APM Shares and ICG Shares under the Arrangement will continue to be APM Shareholders after the Arrangement and will become shareholders of ICG. ICG, like APM, is a British Columbia company governed by the BCBCA. APM will continue to be a British Columbia company governed by the BCBCA.

Court Approval of the Arrangement

An Arrangement under the BCBCA requires approval of the Court.

Interim Order

On January 23, 2026, APM obtained the Interim Order providing for the calling and holding of the Meeting, the Dissent Rights and certain other procedural matters. The text of the Interim Order is set out in Appendix E to this Circular.

Final Order

Subject to the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, and if the Arrangement Resolution is approved by APM Shareholders at the Meeting in the manner required by the Interim Order, APM intends to make an application to the Court for the Final Order.

The application for the Final Order approving the Arrangement is currently scheduled for February 27, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time), or as soon thereafter as counsel may be heard, at the Courthouse, 800 Smithe Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, or at any other date and time as the Court may direct. Any APM Shareholder who wishes to appear or be represented and to present evidence or arguments at that hearing must file and serve a response to petition no later than 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on February 25, 2026, along with any other documents required in the form prescribed by the Supreme Court Civil Rules with the Court, and deliver a copy of the filed response together with a copy of all materials on which such APM Shareholder or interest party intends to rely at the hearing of the petition, including an outline of such person's proposed submission, to APM c/o McMillan LLP, PO Box 11117, Suite 1500 – 1055 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC V6E 4N7, Attn: Arman Farahani. Such Persons should consult with their legal advisors as to the necessary requirements. In the event that the hearing is adjourned then, subject to further order of the Court, only those persons having previously filed and served a notice of appearance will be given notice of the adjournment.

APM has been advised by its legal counsel, McMillan LLP, that the Court has broad discretion under the BCBCA when making orders with respect to the Arrangement and that the Court will consider, among other things, the fairness and reasonableness of the Arrangement, both from a substantive and a procedural point of view. The Court may approve the Arrangement, either as proposed or as amended, on the terms presented or substantially on those terms. Depending upon the nature of any required amendments, APM may determine not to proceed with the Arrangement.

The New APM Shares, ICG Shares, and New APM Options to be issued, distributed and exchanged, as applicable, to APM Shareholders, APM Optionholders and APM Warrantholders, as applicable, pursuant to the Arrangement have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or the applicable Securities Laws of any state of the United States, and will be issued, distributed and exchanged, as applicable, in reliance upon the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption and exemptions provided under the applicable Securities Laws of each state of the United States in which APM Securityholders reside. Section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act exempts from registration a security that is issued or distributed in exchange for outstanding securities, claims or property interests, where the terms and


conditions of such issuance and exchange are approved, after a hearing upon the fairness of such terms and conditions at which all Persons to whom it is proposed to issue securities in such exchange have the right to appear, by a court or by a governmental authority expressly authorized by law to grant such approval and to hold such a hearing.

The New APM Shares issuable upon the exercise of the New APM Options, and the New APM Shares and ICG Shares issuable upon the exercise of APM Warrants, as applicable, in the United States or by, or on behalf of, a U.S. Person after the Effective Date may not be issued in reliance upon the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption and may be exercised only if the issuance is registered under the U.S. Securities Act or exempt from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and pursuant to any applicable Securities Laws of any state of the United States.

The Court will be advised at the hearing of the application for the Final Order that if the terms and conditions of the Arrangement, and the fairness thereof, are approved by the Court, the Final Order will be relied upon to constitute the basis for the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption with respect to the New APM Shares, ICG Shares, and New APM Options to be issued, distributed and exchanged, as applicable, pursuant to the Arrangement. Accordingly, the Final Order of the Court will, if granted, constitute a basis for the exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act with respect to the issuance of the New APM Shares, ICG Shares, and New APM Options in connection with the Arrangement. See "The Arrangement – CSE Requirements, Regulatory Law and Securities Law Matters – United States Securities Laws Matters".

For further information regarding the Court hearing and your rights in connection with the Court hearing, see the form of Notice of Hearing of Petition attached at Appendix E to this Circular. The Notice of Hearing of Petition constitutes notice of the Court hearing of the application for the Final Order and is your only notice of the Court hearing.

Regulatory Approvals

The APM Shares are listed and posted for trading on the CSE, and as a result of the Arrangement the New APM Shares will continue to be listed and posted for trading on the CSE. ICG is currently in the process of applying to the CSE with respect to the transactions completed in the Arrangement Agreement, including the listing of the ICG Shares to be issued under the Arrangement and issuable on the exercise of the APM Warrants after completion of the Arrangement.

CSE Requirements, Regulatory Law and Securities Law Matters

Other than the Final Order and the approvals of the CSE, APM is not aware of any material approval, consent or other action by any federal, provincial, state or foreign government or any administrative or regulatory agency that would be required to be obtained in order to complete the Arrangement. In the event that any such approvals or consents are determined to be required, such approvals or consents will be sought, although any such additional requirements could delay the Effective Date or prevent the completion of the Arrangement. While there can be no assurance that any regulatory consents or approvals that are determined to be required will be obtained, APM currently anticipates that any such consents and approvals that are determined to be required will have been obtained or otherwise resolved by the Effective Date.

Canadian Securities Laws Matters

Each APM Shareholder is urged to consult such APM Shareholder’s professional advisors to determine the Canadian conditions and restrictions applicable to trades in the New APM Shares or ICG Shares.

Status Under Canadian Securities Laws

APM is a reporting issuer in British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Alberta, Ontario and Nova Scotia. The APM Shares currently trade on the CSE. Prior to the Effective Time, the APM Shares will be delisted from the CSE and the New APM Shares issuable pursuant to and in connection with the Arrangement are expected to commence trading on the CSE within three Business Days of the Effective Date.

Upon completion of the Arrangement, ICG expects that it will be a reporting issuer in British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Alberta, Ontario and Nova Scotia. Prior to the Effective Time, the APM Shares will be delisted from

23


the CSE and the ICG Shares will be listed and posted for trading on the CSE and are expected to commence trading on the CSE within three Business Days of the Effective Date.

Distribution and Resale of New APM Shares and ICG Shares under Canadian Securities Laws

The distribution of the New APM Shares, ICG Shares and New APM Options, pursuant to the Arrangement will constitute a distribution of securities which is exempt from the prospectus requirements of Canadian securities legislation and is exempt from or otherwise is not subject to the registration requirements under applicable securities legislation. The New APM Shares and ICG Shares received pursuant to the Arrangement will not bear any legend under Canadian Securities Laws and may be resold through registered dealers in each of the provinces of Canada provided that: (a) ICG, after the Arrangement, and APM is and has been a reporting issuer in a jurisdiction in Canada for the four months immediately preceding the trade; (b) the trade is not a "control distribution" as defined in NI 45-102; (c) no unusual effort is made to prepare the market or to create a demand for the New APM Shares or ICG Shares; (d) no extraordinary commission or consideration is paid to a Person in respect of such sale; and (e) if the selling securityholder is an insider or officer of New APM or ICG, the selling securityholder has no reasonable grounds to believe that New APM or ICG is in default of applicable Securities Laws. For the purposes of (a) above, ICG will satisfy the four month requirement by virtue of the fact that it is a party to the Arrangement Agreement with APM, which will have been a reporting issuer in a jurisdiction in Canada for at least four months prior to the date of distribution.

United States Securities Laws Matters

The following discussion is a general overview of certain requirements of U.S. Securities Laws that may be applicable to APM U.S. Shareholders and APM U.S. Securityholders. All APM U.S. Shareholders are urged to consult with their own legal counsel to ensure that any subsequent resale of New APM Shares or ICG Shares issued or distributed to them under the Arrangement complies with applicable Securities Laws.

Further information applicable to APM U.S. Shareholders is disclosed under the heading "Notice To United States Securityholders".

The following discussion does not address the Canadian Securities Laws that will apply to the issue and distribution of New APM Shares or ICG Shares or the resale of these or other securities referred to below by APM U.S. Shareholders within Canada, except in limited circumstances. APM U.S. Shareholders reselling their ICG Shares in Canada must, in all circumstances, comply with Canadian Securities Laws, as outlined elsewhere in this Circular.

Status under U.S. Securities Laws

Each of APM and ICG is a "foreign private issuer" as defined in Rule 405 under the U.S. Securities Act and Rule 3b-4 under the U.S. Exchange Act, and it is anticipated that each of APM and ICG will, for the foreseeable future, rely on Rule 12g3-2(b) to the extent necessary to remain exempt from the registration requirements of section 12 of the U.S. Exchange Act.

It is intended that the ICG Shares will be listed for trading on the CSE following completion of the Arrangement. However, there is no assurance that ICG will be successful in obtaining such a listing. ICG does not intend to seek a listing for the ICG Shares on a stock exchange in the United States.

Exemption from the Registration Requirements of the U.S. Securities Act

The New APM Shares, ICG Shares and New APM Options to be issued, distributed and exchanged, as applicable, pursuant to the Arrangement have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or the Securities Laws of any state of the United States, and will be issued, distributed and exchanged, as applicable, in reliance upon the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption of the U.S. Securities Act and exemptions provided under the Securities Laws of each state of the United States in which APM Securityholders reside.

Section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act exempts from registration a security that is issued in exchange for outstanding securities, claims or property interests, where the terms and conditions of such issuance and exchange are approved, after a hearing upon the fairness of such terms and conditions at which all Persons to whom it is proposed

24


to issue securities in such exchange have the right to appear, by a court or by a governmental authority expressly authorized by law to grant such approval and to hold such a hearing. The Court is authorized to conduct a hearing at which the fairness of the terms and conditions of the Arrangement will be considered, and all APM Shareholders and APM Optionholders are entitled to appear and be heard at this hearing. Accordingly, the Final Order will, if granted, constitute a basis for the exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act provided by Section 3(a)(10) thereof with respect to the New APM Shares, ICG Shares and New APM Options to be received by APM Shareholders and APM Optionholders pursuant to the Arrangement.

Resale of New APM Shares and ICG Shares within the United States after the Completion of the Arrangement

The manner in which an APM U.S. Shareholder may resell the New APM Shares and the ICG Shares received on completion of the Arrangement in the United States will depend on whether such holder is an “affiliate” of ICG or APM after the Arrangement, as applicable, after the completion of the Arrangement or has been such an “affiliate” within 90 days of the Arrangement.

The New APM Shares and ICG Shares, as applicable, received by a holder who is an “affiliate” of APM or ICG, as applicable, after the Arrangement or has been such an “affiliate” within 90 days of the Arrangement will be subject to certain restrictions on resale imposed by the U.S. Securities Act.

As defined in Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act, an “affiliate” of an issuer is a person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the issuer. Typically, persons who are executive officers or directors of an issuer, as well as persons who directly or indirectly beneficially own or control more than 10% of the issuer’s voting securities, are considered to be “affiliates”.

Persons who are not affiliates of APM or ICG, as applicable, after the Arrangement, and who have not been affiliates within 90 days of either the resale in question or within 90 days prior to the Effective Time, may resell the New APM Shares or ICG Shares, as applicable, that they receive in connection with the Arrangement in the United States without restriction under the U.S. Securities Act.

Persons who are affiliates or APM or ICG, as applicable, after the Arrangement, or who have been affiliates within 90 days of the resale in question or within 90 days prior to the Effective Time, may not sell their New APM Shares or ICG Shares, as applicable, that they receive in connection with the Arrangement, in the absence of registration under the U.S. Securities Act, unless an applicable exemption from such registration requirements is available.

Regulation S

In general, under Rule 904 of Regulation S, certain persons who hold New APM Shares or ICG Shares that are subject to U.S. resale restrictions following completion of the Arrangement, may sell them outside the United States in an “offshore transaction” if neither the seller, an affiliate nor any person acting on its behalf engages in “directed selling efforts” in the United States. For purposes of Regulation S, “directed selling efforts” means, except for certain narrow permitted activities specified in Regulation S, “any activity undertaken for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the United States for any of the securities being offered”.

Also, under Regulation S, subject to certain exceptions contained in Regulation S, an “offshore transaction” is a transaction in which the offer of the applicable securities is not made to a person in the United States or any person acting on its behalf, and either: (a) at the time the buy order is originated, the buyer is outside the United States or the seller reasonably believes that the buyer is outside of the United States; or (b) the transaction is executed in, on or through the facilities of a designated offshore securities market (which would include a sale on the CSE) and neither the seller nor any person acting on its behalf knows that the transaction has been pre-arranged with a buyer in the United States.

Such resales under Rule 904 of Regulation S are not permitted by any person deemed to be a distributor of the subject securities, or any person who is an affiliate of the issuer of the securities, except a person who is an affiliate solely by virtue of holding the position of an officer or a director. (As described above, with reference to a particular issuer, an affiliate will typically include any person who is an executive officer or director of that issuer, as well as any person who beneficially owns or controls more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of that issuer.) No selling concession, fee or other remuneration can be paid in connection with the resale of securities by a person who is an

25


affiliate solely by virtue of being an officer or director of the issuer, other than the usual and customary broker’s commission that would be received by a person executing such transaction as agent.

Certain additional restrictions, set forth in Regulation S, may be applicable.

Option Shares and Warrant Shares

The New APM Shares issuable upon the exercise of the New APM Options, and the New APM Shares and ICG Shares issuable upon exercise of the APM Warrants have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or the Securities Laws of any state of the United States. Accordingly, the New APM Options and the APM Warrants may not be exercised in the United States, or by or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person or a person within the United States, after the Effective Date absent an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and any applicable Securities Laws of any state of the United States.

If issued pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, such New APM Shares and ICG Shares will be “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act and will be subject to transfer restrictions.

Interest of Certain Persons in the Arrangement

In considering the recommendation of the APM Board with respect to the Arrangement, APM Shareholders should be aware that certain members of APM’s senior management and the APM Board have certain interests in connection with the Arrangement that may present them with actual or potential conflicts of interest in connection with the Arrangement. These interests include those described herein. In particular, Warwick Smith (Chief Executive Officer and Director of APM), Joness Lang (President and Director of APM) and Ali Hakimzadeh (Director of APM) each acquired 1,000,000 ICG Shares at a price of $0.03 per ICG Share in early October 2025. The APM Board was aware of these interests and considered them, among other matters, when recommending approval of the Arrangement by APM Shareholders.

Directors

The directors of APM (other than directors who are also executive officers) hold, in the aggregate: (i) 925,000 APM Shares, which represents less than 1% of the voting rights attached to all of the issued and outstanding APM Shares; (ii) 3,820,000 APM Options to acquire 3,820,000 APM Shares; and (iii) 25,000 APM Warrants to acquire 25,000 APM Shares, which together with the APM Shares and APM Options, represent approximately 2.07% of the votes attached to all issued and outstanding APM Shares, APM Options and APM Warrants, aggregated as a single class, all as of the Record Date. All of the APM Shares, APM Options and APM Warrants held by APM’s directors will be treated in the same fashion under the Arrangement as APM Shares, APM Options and APM Warrants held by every other APM Shareholder, APM Optionholder or APM Warrantholder, as applicable.

Officers

The executive officers of APM hold, in the aggregate: (i) 1,604,500 APM Shares, which represent less than 1% of the voting rights attached to all of the issued and outstanding APM Shares; (ii) 4,470,000 APM Options to acquire 4,470,000 APM Shares; and (iii) 50,000 APM Warrants to acquire 50,000 APM Shares, which together with the APM Shares and the APM Options, represent approximately 2.66% of the votes attached to all issued and outstanding APM Shares, APM Options and APM Warrants, aggregated as a single class, all as of the Record Date. All the APM Shares, APM Options and APM Warrants held by APM’s executive officers will be treated in the same fashion under the Arrangement as APM Shares and APM Options held by every other APM Shareholder or APM Optionholder.

Multilateral Instrument 61-101

APM is a reporting issuer in British Columbia, Alberta, Nova Scotia, Ontario, and Saskatchewan, and accordingly, is subject to MI 61-101. MI 61-101 governs certain transactions that raise the potential for conflicts of interest, including, among other transactions, “related party transactions” and “business combinations” (as defined in MI 61-101). MI 61-101 is intended to ensure that all securityholders are treated in a manner that is fair and that is perceived to be fair with respect to these transactions and generally requires enhanced disclosure, approval by a majority of security holders

26


excluding interested parties and/or, in certain instances, independent valuations and approval of oversight of these transactions by a special committee of independent directors. The Arrangement does not constitute an issuer bid, an insider bid or a related party transaction for the purposes of MI 61-101.

A business combination for an issuer includes an arrangement as a consequence of which the interest of a holder of an equity security of the issuer may be terminated without the holder's consent, regardless of whether the equity security is replaced with another security, in circumstances where a person that is a related party of the issuer at the time the transaction is agreed to (i) would, as a consequence of the transaction, directly or indirectly acquire the issuer or the business of the issuer, or combine with the issuer, through an amalgamation, arrangement or otherwise, whether alone or with "joint actors" (as defined in MI 61-101), (ii) is a party to any connected transaction to the transaction, or (iii) is entitled to receive, directly or indirectly, as a consequence of the transaction, (A) consideration per equity security that is not identical in amount and form to the entitlement of the general body of holders in Canada of securities of the same class, or (B) a collateral benefit.

Under MI 61-101, a collateral benefit includes any benefit that a related party of the issuer is entitled to receive as a consequence of a transaction, including, without limitation, an increase in salary, a lump sum payment, a payment for surrendering securities or other enhancements in benefits related to services as an employee, director or consultant of the issuer or another person. MI 61-101 excludes from the meaning of collateral benefit a payment per security that is identical in amount and form to the entitlement of the general body of holders in Canada of securities of the same class, as well as certain benefits to a related party received solely in connection with the related party's services as an employee or director of an issuer, of an affiliated entity of such issuer or of a successor to the business of such issuer where: (a) the benefit is not conferred for the purpose, in whole or in part, of increasing the value of the consideration paid to the related party for securities relinquished under the transaction; (b) the conferring of the benefit is not, by its terms, conditional on the related party supporting the transaction in any manner; (c) full particulars of the benefit are disclosed in the disclosure document for the transaction; and (d) either (i) at the time the transaction is agreed to, the related party and his or her associated entities beneficially own, or exercise control or direction over, less than 1% of the outstanding securities of each class of equity securities of the issuer (the "De Minimis Exclusion"), or (ii) the related party discloses to an independent committee of the issuer the amount of consideration that the related party expects to be beneficially entitled to receive, under the terms of the transaction, in exchange for the equity securities the related party beneficially owns and the independent committee, acting in good faith, determines that the value of the benefit, net of any offsetting costs to the related party, is less than 5% of the value of the consideration the related party will receive pursuant to the terms of the transaction for the equity securities beneficially owned by the related party, and the independent committee's determination is disclosed in the disclosure document for the transaction.

In assessing whether the Arrangement could be considered to be a "business combination" for the purposes of MI 61-101, APM reviewed all benefits or payments which related parties of APM are entitled to receive, directly or indirectly, as a consequence of the Arrangement to determine whether any constituted a "collateral benefit" (as defined in MI 61-101). For these purposes, the only related parties of APM that are entitled to receive a benefit, directly or indirectly, as a consequence of the Arrangement are the directors and senior officers of APM.

Warwick Smith (Chief Executive Officer and Director of APM), Joness Lang (President and Director of APM) and Ali Hakimzadeh (Director of APM) each acquired, prior to the date of the Arrangement Agreement, 1,000,000 ICG Shares at a price of $0.03 per ICG Share as compared to the deemed price of $0.15 per ICG Share issued by ICG pursuant to the Arrangement. As a result, such officers and directors of APM, could receive a collateral benefit in the form of a greater capital gain upon a future disposition of their ICG Shares when compared to a future disposition of ICG Shares by other APM Shareholders that receive ICG Shares pursuant to the Arrangement. However, each of Warwick Smith, Joness Lang, and Ali Hakimzadeh exercises control or direction over, or beneficially owns, less than 1% of the outstanding APM Shares. Accordingly, the APM Board determined that the De Minimis Exclusion applies and the benefits to be gained by each of Warwick Smith, Joness Lang and Ali Hakimzadeh are not a "collateral benefit" for the purposes of MI 61-101. As a result, the Arrangement Resolution is not subject to the minority approval requirements of MI 61-101

The Arrangement Agreement

The description of the Arrangement Agreement, both below and elsewhere in this Circular, is a summary only, is not exhaustive and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, which may be found under APM's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Amendment, Termination and Assignment

The Arrangement Agreement may not be varied in its terms or amended by oral agreement or otherwise other than by an instrument in writing dated subsequent to the date thereof, executed by a duly authorized representative of each of ICG and APM.

The Arrangement Agreement may, at any time before or after the holding of the Meeting, and before or after the granting of the Final Order, be terminated and the Plan of Arrangement withdrawn by:

(a) mutual written consent of ICG and APM;

(b) by either ICG or APM if the Arrangement has not been completed by the Outside Date, provided that the right to terminate shall not be made available to a party who has breached a representation, warranty, covenant, or obligation under the Arrangement Agreement or the Share Exchange Agreement, the cause of which resulted in the failure of the Arrangement to occur on or before the Outside Date;

(c) by either ICG or APM if the other party completes an Alternative Transaction or enters into a definitive and binding agreement to effect an Alternative Transaction;

(d) by either ICG or APM if any permanent injunction or other order of a court or other competent authority preventing the Arrangement shall have become final or non-appealable, provided that if such a permanent injunction or order was a result of a party's material breach of the Arrangement Agreement, then such party shall not be entitled to terminate the Arrangement Agreement;

(e) by ICG upon written notice to APM if:

a. a material breach of any provision of the Arrangement Agreement or the Share Exchange Agreement has been committed by APM or either of the Targets and such breach has not been cured by APM or the applicable Target within 10 days following receipt of notice of such breach by ICG; or

b. certain conditions set forth in the Arrangement Agreement or the Share Exchange Agreement has become incapable of fulfillment, unless made impossible by any act or failure to act by ICG;

(f) by APM upon written notice to ICG if:

a. a material breach of any provision of the Arrangement Agreement or the Share Exchange Agreement has been committed by ICG and such breach has not been cured by ICG 10 days following receipt of notice of such breach by APM; or

b. certain conditions set forth in the Arrangement Agreement or the Share Exchange Agreement has become incapable of fulfillment, unless made impossible by any act or failure to act by APM.

The Arrangement Agreement additionally provides that prior to the Effective Date, APM may sell, transfer or assign all or part of its interest in the shares of APMUS or CGI to a wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of APM,

30


provided that (i) such subsidiary assumes all of APM's applicable rights and obligations under the Arrangement Agreement, and (ii) APM shall remain jointly and severally liable with the subsidiary for all obligations under the Arrangement Agreement.

Risks Associated with the Arrangement

In evaluating the Arrangement, APM Shareholders should carefully consider the following risk factors relating to the Arrangement. The following risk factors are not a definitive list of all risk factors associated with the Arrangement. Additional risks and uncertainties, including those currently unknown or considered immaterial by APM, may also adversely affect the APM Shares, New APM Shares, ICG Shares, New APM Options, APM Warrants, New APM Business and ICG Business following the Arrangement. In addition to the risk factors relating to the Arrangement set out below, APM Shareholders should also carefully consider the risk factors associated with the businesses of New APM and ICG included in this Circular. If any of the risk factors materialize, the expectations, and the predictions based on them, may need to be re-evaluated.

The risks associated with the Arrangement include:

There can be no certainty, nor can APM provide any assurance, that the requisite approval of the APM Shareholders for the Arrangement Resolution will be obtained.

APM has determined that the Arrangement Resolution must be approved by at least two-thirds of the votes cast in respect of the Arrangement Resolution by APM Shareholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting, on the basis of one vote per APM Share. As a result, there can be no certainty, nor can APM provide any assurance, that the requisite APM Shareholder approval of the Arrangement Resolution will be obtained. If the Arrangement is not approved by the APM Shareholders or completed at all, there may be a negative impact on the price of the APM Shares and APM's future business and operations to the extent that the current trading price of APM Shares reflects an assumption that the Arrangement will be completed. The price of the APM Shares may decline if the Arrangement is not completed.

Another transaction on terms as favorable as the Arrangement may not be available.

If the Arrangement is not completed, there can be no assurance that APM will be able to find a party willing to pay an equivalent or more attractive consideration than the consideration to be provided under the Arrangement or willing to proceed at all with a similar transaction or any alternative transaction.

APM and ICG may be the targets of legal claims, securities class actions, derivative lawsuits and other claims.

APM and ICG may be the target of securities class actions and derivative lawsuits which could result in substantial costs and may delay or prevent the Arrangement from being completed. Third parties may attempt to bring claims against APM and ICG seeking to restrain the Arrangement or seeking monetary compensation or other remedies. Even if the lawsuits are without merit, defending against these claims can result in substantial costs and divert management time and resources. Additionally, if a plaintiff is successful in obtaining an injunction prohibiting the Arrangement, then that injunction may delay or prevent the Arrangement from being completed.

There are possible tax consequences of the Arrangement.

APM will not be seeking an advance income tax ruling from the CRA or any other applicable tax authority in respect of the Arrangement. Whether the transfer of the issued and outstanding shares of APMUS and CGI to ICG in exchange for ICG Shares pursuant to the Arrangement will result in material income tax liability to APM will depend on the tax cost of APMUS and CGI shares, the proceeds of disposition of such shares and the extent to which APM and ICG effect such transfer on a tax-deferred basis. The exchange of outstanding APM Shares for the New APM Shares and the ICG Shares might also give rise to Canadian income tax consequences to APM Shareholders depending on the fair market value of the New APM Shares and the ICG Shares and the "paid-up capital" of the New APM Shares and the ICG Shares at the time of the distribution. Such value cannot be definitively determined prior to the Effective Date. If a taxing authority successfully asserts a higher value for the New APM Shares and the ICG Shares this could result in material tax liability to APM Shareholders as a result of the Arrangement. The transactions contemplated in the Arrangement may also give rise to other significant adverse tax consequences to APM Shareholders and each APM

31


Shareholder is urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of the Arrangement having regard to their own particular circumstances.

APM Shareholders will receive a fixed number of ICG Shares.

APM will complete the Distribution to the APM Shareholders (other than the Dissenting Shareholders, if any). This means that APM Shareholders (other than the Dissenting Shareholders, if any) will receive a fixed number of ICG Shares under the Arrangement, rather than ICG Shares with a fixed value. Because the number of ICG Shares to be received in respect of each APM Share under the Arrangement will not be adjusted to reflect any change in the market value of the APM Shares, the value of the ICG Shares received under the Arrangement may vary significantly from the market value of APM Shares at the dates referenced in this Circular. Many of the factors that affect the market price of the APM Shares are beyond the control of APM. These factors include fluctuations in commodity prices, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, changes in the regulatory environment, adverse political developments, prevailing conditions in the capital markets and interest rate fluctuations.

There can be no certainty that all conditions precedent to the Arrangement will be satisfied.

The completion of the Arrangement is subject to a number of conditions precedent, certain of which are outside the control of APM, including receipt of the Final Order and final approval of the listing of the ICG Shares on the CSE. There can be no certainty, nor can APM provide any assurance, that these conditions will be satisfied or, if satisfied, when they will be satisfied.

APM will incur costs.

Certain costs related to the Arrangement, such as legal and accounting fees, must be paid by APM even if the Arrangement is not completed.

APM directors and executive officers may have interests in the Arrangement that are different from those of the APM Shareholders.

In considering the recommendation of the APM Board to vote in favor of the Arrangement Resolution, APM Shareholders should be aware that members of the APM Board and management team have agreements or arrangements that provide them with interests in the Arrangement that differ from, or are in addition to, those of APM Shareholders generally. See "The Arrangement - Interest of Certain Persons in the Arrangement".

The market price for the APM Shares may decline.

If the Arrangement is not approved by the APM Shareholders, the market price of the APM Shares may decline to the extent that the current market price of the APM Shares reflects a market assumption that the Arrangement will be completed.

New APM and ICG will incur their own expenses going forward.

As a result of the Arrangement, each of New APM and ICG will incur their own general and administrative costs to operate the New APM Business and the ICG Business, respectively. These additional costs may negatively impact the financial performance of each of New APM and ICG.

Dissent Rights

The following description of Dissent Rights is not a comprehensive statement of the procedures to be followed by a Dissenting Shareholder who seeks payment of the fair value of its Dissent Shares from APM and is qualified in its entirety by the reference to the full text of the Interim Order, which is attached at Appendix E to this Circular, and the specific provisions of Sections 237 to 247 of the BCBCA, which have been reproduced in their entirety in Appendix D to this Circular. The statutory provisions dealing with the right of dissent are technical and complex. A Dissenting Shareholder who intends to exercise Dissent Rights should carefully consider and comply with the provisions of the Interim Order and the relevant provisions of the BCBCA.

32


Failure to strictly comply with the provisions of the Interim Order and the BCBCA and to adhere to the procedures established therein, may result in the loss of all rights thereunder. A Dissenting Shareholder should seek independent legal advice.

Pursuant to the Interim Order, a Registered APM Shareholder who intends to exercise the Dissent Rights must deliver a Dissent Notice to the offices of McMillan LLP, Attn: Arman Farahani, at Suite 1500, 1055 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6E 4N7, to be received not later than 5:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on February 23, 2026, or two Business Days before any adjournment or postponement of the Meeting and must not vote any APM Shares in favour of the Arrangement. A Non-Registered Holder who wishes to exercise the Dissent Rights must arrange for the Registered APM Shareholder(s) holding its APM Shares to deliver the Dissent Notice. The Dissent Notice must contain all of the information specified in the Interim Order. A vote against the Arrangement Resolution does not constitute a Dissent Notice and an APM Shareholder who votes in favour of the Arrangement Resolution will not be considered a Dissenting Shareholder.

To exercise Dissent Rights, a Registered APM Shareholder must prepare a separate Dissent Notice for themselves, if dissenting on their own behalf, and for each other Non-Registered Holder for whom they are dissenting with respect to APM Shares registered in the Registered APM Shareholder's name. If dissenting on its own behalf, a Registered APM Shareholder must dissent with respect to all of the APM Shares registered in their name. If dissenting on behalf of a Non-Registered Holder, the Registered APM Shareholder must dissent with respect to all APM Shares registered in their name and beneficially owned by that dissenting Non-Registered Holder. The Dissent Notice must set out the number of Dissent Shares and a statement to the effect of either:

(a) that the Dissent Shares represent all APM Shares of which the APM Shareholder is both the registered and beneficial owner, and that they own no other APM Shares beneficially;

(b) that the Dissent Shares represent all APM Shares of which the APM Shareholder is both the registered and beneficial owner, but that they also beneficially own other APM Shares registered in the name of different shareholders, together with the names of those shareholders, the number of shares held by each, and confirmation that written notices of dissent have been or are being submitted for those shares; or

(c) that the Registered APM Shareholder is not the beneficial owner of the Dissent Shares, in which case the notice must include the name and address of the Non-Registered Holder and a statement confirming that the Registered APM Shareholder is dissenting with respect to all such APM Shares registered in their name.

If the Arrangement Resolution is approved, and APM provides a notification to a Dissenting Shareholder of APM's intention to act upon the Arrangement Resolution pursuant to Section 243 of the BCBCA in order to exercise Dissent Rights, such APM Shareholder must, within one month after APM gives such notice, send to APM a written notice that such holder requires the purchase of all of the Dissent Shares in respect of which such holder has given a Dissent Notice. Such written notice must be accompanied by the certificate(s) or DRS statement(s) representing those Dissent Shares (including a written statement prepared in accordance with Section 244(1)(c) of the BCBCA if the dissent is being exercised by the APM Shareholder on behalf of a Non-Registered Holder), whereupon, subject to the provisions of the BCBCA relating to the termination of Dissent Rights, the APM Shareholder becomes a Dissenting Shareholder, and is bound to sell and APM is bound to purchase and cancel those APM Shares. Such Dissenting Shareholder may not vote, or exercise or assert any rights of a APM Shareholder in respect of such Dissent Shares, other than the rights set forth in Division 2 of Part 8 of the BCBCA, as modified by the Plan of Arrangement and the Interim Order.

Dissenting Shareholders who are:

(a) ultimately entitled to be paid fair value for their Dissent Shares shall be deemed not to have participated in the Arrangement and will be paid an amount equal to such fair value determined in accordance with the procedures applicable to the payout value set out in Sections 244 and 245 of the BCBCA and determined as of the close of business on the Business Day before the Arrangement Resolution was adopted, by APM, and will be deemed to have transferred such Dissent Shares as of the Effective Time to APM, without any further act or formality, and free and clear of all Encumbrances; or

33


(b) ultimately not entitled, for any reason, to be paid fair value for their Dissent Shares, will be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement on the same basis as a APM Shareholder that has not exercised Dissent Rights and shall be entitled to receive only the ICG Shares and New APM Shares on the basis determined in accordance with the Arrangement Agreement that such holder would have received pursuant to the Arrangement if such registered holder had not exercised Dissent Rights.

If a Dissenting Shareholder is ultimately entitled to be paid by APM for their Dissent Shares, such Dissenting Shareholder may enter an agreement with APM for the fair value of such Dissent Shares. If such Dissenting Shareholder does not reach an agreement with APM, such Dissenting Shareholder, or APM may apply to the Court, and the Court may:

(a) determine the payout value of the Dissent Shares, or order that the payout value of the Dissent Shares be established by arbitration or by reference to a Registrar, or a referee, of the Court;

(b) join in the application of each Dissenting Shareholder who has not agreed with APM on the amount of the payout value of the Dissent Shares; and

(c) make consequential orders and give directions as the Court considers appropriate.

If an APM Shareholder fails to strictly comply with the requirements of the Dissent Rights set out in the Interim Order, it will lose its Dissent Rights, APM will return to the registered APM Shareholder the certificate(s), if any, representing the Dissent Shares that were delivered to APM, if any, and, if the Arrangement is completed, that APM Shareholder will be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement in respect of those APM Shares on the same terms as all other APM Shareholders who are not Dissenting Shareholders. In no case will APM, ICG or any other Person be required to recognize such APM Shareholder as holding APM Shares at or after the Effective Time.

The Interim Order outlines certain events when Dissent Rights will cease to apply where such events occur before payment is made to the Dissenting Shareholder of the fair value of the APM Shares surrendered (including if the Arrangement Resolution does not pass or is otherwise not proceeded with). In such events, the Dissenting Shareholder will be entitled to the return of the applicable share certificate(s), if any, and rights as an APM Shareholder in respect of the applicable APM Shares will be regained.

Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations

The following general summary describes certain of the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations in respect of the Arrangement applicable to an APM Shareholder who, for purposes of the Tax Act and at all relevant times, deals at arm's length with each of APM and ICG, is not affiliated with either APM or ICG, holds APM Shares, as applicable, as capital property, disposes of such securities under the Arrangement, and will hold any New APM Shares or ICG Shares received under the Arrangement as capital property (a "Holder").

APM Shares will generally be considered to be capital property to a Holder unless the Holder holds such securities in the course of carrying on a business or the Holder acquired such securities in a transaction, or transactions considered to be an adventure or concern in the nature of trade.

This summary is based on the current provisions of the Tax Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder (the "Regulations"), all specific proposals to amend the Tax Act and the Regulations publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof (the "Tax Proposals"), and the current published administrative and assessing practices of the CRA publicly released prior to the date hereof. This summary assumes that all Tax Proposals will be enacted as proposed. However, there can be no assurance that the Tax Proposals will be enacted in their current form, or at all. This summary is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax considerations and, except for the Tax Proposals, does not take into account or anticipate any changes in law or administrative practice, whether by legislative, regulatory, administrative or judicial decision or action, nor does it take into account or consider other federal or any provincial, territorial or foreign tax considerations, which may differ significantly from the Canadian federal income tax considerations described herein.

This summary is not applicable to a Holder: (a) that is a "financial institution" (for the purposes of the "mark-to-market" rules in the Tax Act), a "specified financial institution" or a "restricted financial institution", each as defined

34


in the Tax Act; (b) an interest in which would be a “tax shelter investment” within the meaning of the Tax Act; (c) whose “functional currency” for the purposes of the Tax Act is the currency of a country other than Canada; (d) that acquired APM Shares upon the exercise of employee stock options; or (e) that has or will enter into a “derivative forward agreement”, “synthetic disposition arrangement”, or a “dividend rental arrangement” as such terms are defined in the Tax Act, in respect of the APM Shares, New APM Shares or ICG Shares. Such Holders should consult their own tax advisors.

Additional considerations not discussed herein may be applicable to a Holder that is a corporation resident in Canada and is or becomes (or does not deal at arm’s length (within the meaning of the Tax Act) with a corporation resident in Canada that is or becomes) controlled by a non-resident person or group of persons not dealing at arm’s length with each other for purposes of the “foreign affiliate dumping” rules in section 212.3 of the Tax Act. Such Holders should consult their own tax advisors.

In addition, this summary does not address the tax considerations applicable to APM Optionholders or APM Warrantholders. Such holders should consult their own tax advisors.

This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any particular APM Shareholder. This summary is not exhaustive of all Canadian federal income tax considerations. Consequently, APM Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors for advice regarding the income tax consequences to them of disposing of their APM Securities under the Arrangement, having regard to their own particular circumstances, and any other consequences to them of such transactions under Canadian federal, provincial, local and foreign tax laws.

Holders Resident in Canada

The following portion of this summary is generally applicable to Holders who, for purposes of the Tax Act and any applicable income tax convention, and at all relevant times, are resident or deemed to be resident solely in Canada (each, a “Resident Holder”). Certain Resident Holders whose APM Shares might not otherwise be considered to be capital property for the purposes of the Tax Act may, in certain circumstances, make an irrevocable election in accordance with subsection 39(4) of the Tax Act to have their APM Shares and all other “Canadian securities”, as defined in the Tax Act, owned by such Resident Holder in the taxation year in which the election is made, and in all subsequent taxation years, deemed to be capital property. Resident Holders should consult with their own tax advisors regarding the implications of making such an election.

Exchange of APM Shares for New APM Shares and ICG Shares

Based on past CRA administrative policy, the renaming of the existing APM Shares, as contemplated by the Plan or Arrangement, should not, in and of itself, result in APM Shareholders being deemed to have disposed of their APM Shares for the purposes of the Tax Act.

APM has advised that the aggregate fair market value of all ICG Shares when they are distributed to APM Shareholders under the Arrangement is not expected to exceed the “paid-up capital”, as defined for the purposes of the Tax Act, in respect of all APM Shares immediately before the distribution of ICG Shares and the issuance of New APM Shares in exchange for APM Shares under the Arrangement (the “Share Exchange”). Accordingly, APM is not expected to be deemed to pay, nor is a Resident Holder expected to be deemed to receive, a dividend as a result of the distribution of ICG Shares on the Share Exchange under the Arrangement. If the fair market value of all ICG Shares at the time of their distribution under the Arrangement were to exceed the “paid-up capital” in respect of all APM Shares immediately before that time, APM would be deemed to have paid a dividend on the APM Shares equal to the amount of the excess, and each Resident Holder would be deemed to have received a pro rata portion of the dividend, based on the proportion of the total APM Shares held by the Resident Holder at the time. See “Taxation of Dividends” below for a general description of the taxation of dividends under the Tax Act.

Assuming that the fair market value of all ICG Shares at the time of their distribution under the Arrangement does not exceed the “paid-up capital” in respect of all APM Shares immediately before that time, a Resident Holder whose APM Shares are exchanged for New APM Shares and ICG Shares under the Arrangement should be considered to have disposed of the APM Shares for proceeds of disposition equal to the greater of: (i) the Resident Holder’s adjusted cost base of the APM Shares immediately before the exchange; and (ii) the fair market value, at the time of the

35


exchange, of the ICG Shares received by the Resident Holder. Consequently, a Resident Holder should realize a capital gain to the extent that the fair market value of the ICG Shares received on the Share Exchange exceeds the adjusted cost base of the Resident Holder’s APM Shares at the time of the exchange. If the fair market value of all ICG Shares at the time of the Share Exchange were to exceed the “paid-up capital” in respect of all APM Shares immediately before the exchange, the proceeds of disposition of the Resident Holder’s APM Shares would be reduced by the amount of the dividend referred to in the previous paragraph that the Resident Holder would be deemed to have received. See “APM Shareholders Not Resident In Canada– Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses” below for a general description of the treatment of capital gains and losses under the Tax Act.

The cost amount to a Resident Holder of New APM Shares acquired on the Share Exchange for the purposes of the Tax Act will be equal to the amount, if any, by which the adjusted cost base of the Resident Holder’s APM Shares immediately before the Share Exchange exceeds the fair market value, at the time of their distribution, of the ICG Shares received by the Resident Holder on the Share Exchange. The cost amount for the purposes of the Tax Act to a Resident Holder of the ICG Shares acquired on the Share Exchange for the purposes of the Tax Act will be equal to the fair market value of the ICG Shares at the time of the exchange.

Dissenting Resident Holders

A Resident Holder of APM Shares who dissents from the Arrangement (a “Dissenting Resident Holder”) will be deemed to have transferred such Holder’s APM Shares to APM, and will be entitled to receive a payment from APM of an amount equal to the fair value of the Holder’s APM Shares.

A Dissenting Resident Holder will be deemed to have received a taxable dividend equal to the amount by which the amount received from APM for such Holder’s APM Shares, less an amount in respect of interest, if any, awarded by the Court, exceeds the “paid-up capital” in respect of such APM Shares (as determined under the Tax Act).

Where a Dissenting Resident Holder of APM Shares is an individual, any deemed dividend will be included in computing that Dissenting Resident Holder’s income and will be subject to the gross-up and dividend tax credit rules normally applicable to dividends (other than eligible dividends) received from taxable Canadian corporations.

In the case of a Dissenting Resident Holder of APM Shares that is a corporation, any deemed dividend will be included in income and generally will be deductible in computing the taxable income of the corporation, subject to the detailed provisions of the Tax Act. However, in some circumstances, the amount of any such deemed dividend realized by a corporation may be treated as proceeds of disposition and not as a dividend. “Private corporations” and “subject corporations” (each as defined in the Tax Act) may also be liable for refundable Part IV tax on any dividends received.

A Dissenting Resident Holder of APM Shares will also be considered to have disposed of the APM Shares for proceeds of disposition equal to the amount paid to such Dissenting Resident Holder in respect of the APM Shares less an amount in respect of interest, if any, awarded by the Court and the amount of any deemed dividend arising in respect of the disposition of such shares. Dissenting Resident Holders of APM Shares may realize a capital gain or sustain a capital loss in respect of such disposition. The taxation of capital gains and capital losses is discussed below under the heading “APM Shareholders Not Resident in Canada – Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses”.

Any interest awarded by the Court to a Dissenting Resident Holder of APM Shares will be included in such Holder’s income for the purposes of the Tax Act.

Resident Holders of APM Options who dissent from the Arrangement should consult their own tax advisors for advice regarding the income tax consequences associated with the disposition of the APM Options in light of their own particular circumstances.

Dividends on ICG Shares and New APM Shares after the Arrangement

A Resident Holder (other than a Dissenting Resident Holder) who is an individual will be required to include in computing income any dividends received or deemed to be received on their ICG Shares or New APM Shares, and (with the exception of certain trusts), will be subject to the gross-up and dividend tax credit rules applicable to taxable dividends received from taxable Canadian corporations, including the enhanced gross-up and dividend tax credit rules applicable to any dividends designated by APM or ICG as “eligible dividends” as defined in the Tax Act.

36


A Resident Holder (other than a Dissenting Resident Holder) that is a corporation will be required to include in income any dividend received or deemed to be received on its ICG Shares or New APM Shares, and generally will be entitled to deduct an equivalent amount in computing its taxable income, subject to the detailed provisions of the Tax Act. "Private corporations" and "subject corporations" (as defined in the Tax Act) may be liable for refundable Part IV tax on any dividends received.

Disposition of ICG Shares and New APM Shares

A Resident Holder that disposes or is deemed to dispose of ICG Shares or New APM Shares that the Resident Holder holds as capital property in a taxation year will realize a capital gain (or a capital loss) equal to the amount by which the proceeds of disposition of the ICG Shares or New APM Shares, as applicable, exceed (or are exceeded by) the aggregate of the adjusted cost base to the Resident Holder of such ICG Shares or New APM Shares, as applicable, determined immediately before the disposition, and any reasonable costs of disposition. See "APM Shareholders Not Resident In Canada– Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses" below for a general discussion of the treatment of capital gains and losses under the Tax Act.

Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses

Generally, a Resident Holder is required to include in computing his or her income for a taxation year one-half of the amount of any capital gain (a "taxable capital gain") realized in such year. Subject to and in accordance with the provisions of the Tax Act, a Resident Holder is required to deduct one-half of the amount of any capital loss (an "allowable capital loss") realized in a taxation year from taxable capital gains realized by the Resident Holder in the year. Allowable capital losses in excess of taxable capital gains may be carried back and deducted in any of the three preceding taxation years or carried forward and deducted in any subsequent taxation year against net taxable capital gains realized in such years to the extent and in the circumstances described in the Tax Act.

Additional Taxes

A Resident Holder that is throughout the relevant taxation year a "Canadian-controlled private corporation" (as defined in the Tax Act), or is at any time in the relevant taxation year a "substantive CCPC" (as defined in the Tax Act, may be liable to pay an additional tax (refundable in certain circumstances) on its "aggregate investment income" (as defined in the Tax Act) for the year, which includes taxable capital gains, taxable dividends and interest.

Capital gains realized and dividends received or deemed to be received by Resident Holders that are individuals (and certain trusts) may give rise to minimum tax under the Tax Act. Resident Holders who are individuals should consult their own tax advisors in this regard.

APM Shareholders Not Resident in Canada

The following portion of this summary is generally applicable to a Holder, who for purposes of the Tax Act and any applicable income tax convention, and at all relevant times: (i) is not and has not been a resident or deemed to be a resident of Canada, and (ii) does not use or hold, and will not use or hold (and is not deemed to and will not be deemed to use or hold) APM Shares, APM Options, New APM Shares, and ICG Shares in connection with a business carried on in Canada (a "Non-Resident Holder"). Special rules, which are not discussed in this summary, may apply to a non-resident that is an insurer carrying on business in Canada and elsewhere.

Share Exchange

Based on past CRA administrative policy, the renaming of the existing APM Shares, as contemplated by the Plan or Arrangement, should not, in and of itself, result in APM Shareholders being deemed to have disposed of their APM Shares for the purposes of the Tax Act.

APM has advised that, at the time of the Share Exchange, the aggregate fair market value of all ICG Shares distributed to APM Shareholders under the Arrangement is not expected to exceed the "paid-up capital", as defined for the purposes of the Tax Act, in respect of all APM Shares immediately before that time. Accordingly, APM is not expected to be deemed to pay, nor is a Non-Resident Holder expected to be deemed to receive, a dividend as a result of the Share Exchange. If the fair market value of all ICG Shares at the time of their distribution under the Arrangement

were to exceed the “paid-up capital” in respect of all APM Shares immediately before that time, APM would be deemed to have paid a dividend on the APM Shares equal to the amount of the excess, and each Non-Resident Holder would be deemed to have received a pro rata portion of the dividend, based on the proportion of the total APM Shares held by the Non-Resident Holder at that time. See “APM Shareholders Not Resident In Canada – Dividends on ICG Shares and New APM Shares” below for a general description of the taxation of dividends received by Non-Resident Holders under the Tax Act.

Assuming that the fair market value of all ICG Shares at the time of their distribution under the Arrangement does not exceed the “paid-up capital” in respect of all APM Shares immediately before that time, a Non-Resident Holder whose APM Shares are exchanged for New APM Shares and ICG Shares under the Arrangement should be considered to have disposed of the APM Shares for proceeds of disposition equal to the greater of: (i) the Non-Resident Holder’s adjusted cost base of the APM Shares immediately before the exchange; and (ii) the fair market value, at the time of the exchange, of the ICG Shares received by the Non-Resident Holder. Consequently, a Non-Resident Holder should realize a capital gain to the extent that the fair market value of the ICG Shares received on the Share Exchange exceeds the adjusted cost base of the Non-Resident Holder’s APM Shares at the time of the exchange. If the fair market value of all ICG Shares at the time of Share Exchange were to exceed the “paid-up capital” in respect of all APM Shares immediately before the exchange, the proceeds of disposition of the Non-Resident Holder’s APM Shares would be reduced by the amount of the dividend referred to in the previous paragraph that the Non-Resident Holder would be deemed to have received. See “APM Shareholders Not Resident In Canada– Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses” below for a general description of the treatment of capital gains and losses to Non-Resident Holders under the Tax Act.

A Non-Resident Holder will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act on any capital gain realized on a disposition of APM Shares, APM Options, ICG Shares, or New APM Shares unless, at the time of the disposition, such shares are “taxable Canadian property” to the Non-Resident Holder and are not “treaty-protected property” (as defined in the Tax Act) of the Non-Resident Holder.

Provided the APM Shares, ICG Shares and New APM Shares are listed on a “designated stock exchange” (as defined for the purposes of the Tax Act), the APM Shares, ICG Shares, and New APM Shares (collectively, the “Subject Securities”) generally will not constitute “taxable Canadian property” of a Non-Resident Holder, unless, at any time during the 60-month period immediately preceding the disposition, the following two conditions were satisfied concurrently:

(i) 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of shares in the capital stock of APM or ICG, as applicable, were owned by or belonged to one or any combination of:

(a) the Non-Resident Holder;

(b) persons with whom the Non-Resident Holder did not deal at arm’s length for the purposes of the Tax Act; or

(c) partnerships in which the Non-Resident Holder or persons with whom the Non-Resident Holder did not deal at “arm’s length” held membership interests either directly or indirectly through one or more other partnerships, and

(ii) the APM Shares, ICG Shares or New APM Shares, as applicable, derived (directly or indirectly) more than 50% of their fair market value from one or any combination of real or immovable property situated in Canada, Canadian resource properties, timber resource properties, or options in respect of, or interests in, any such property, whether or not the property exists, all as defined for the purposes of the Tax Act.

Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses

A disposition or deemed disposition of Subject Securities held by a Non-Resident Holder as capital property that are “taxable Canadian property” and are not “treaty-protected property” (each as defined for the purposes of the Tax Act) will give rise to a capital gain (or a capital loss) equal to the amount, if any, by which the proceeds of disposition, less any reasonable costs of disposition, exceed (or are less than) the adjusted cost of such shares or options to the Non-Resident Holder at the time of actual or deemed disposition. Generally, one-half of any capital gain realized will be

38


required to be included in income as a taxable capital gain and will be taxed at applicable Canadian tax rates. One-half of any capital loss will be deductible, subject to certain limitations, against certain taxable capital gains in the year of disposition, the three preceding years or any subsequent year in accordance with the detailed provisions of the Tax Act. Non-Resident Holders to whom these rules may be relevant should consult their own tax advisers in this regard.

Dividends on ICG Shares and New APM Shares

Dividends paid, or credited, or deemed to be paid or credited, on ICG Shares or New APM Shares to a Non-Resident Holder generally will be subject to Canadian non-resident withholding tax at a rate of 25% of the gross amount of the dividend, unless the rate is reduced under the provisions of an applicable income tax convention. For example, the rate of withholding tax under the Canada-U.S. Income Tax Convention (1980), as amended (the "U.S. Treaty") applicable to a Non-Resident Holder who is an individual and a resident of the United States for the purposes of the US Treaty, is the beneficial owner of the dividend, and is entitled to claim all of the benefits afforded by the U.S. Treaty generally will be 15%.

Dissenting Non-Resident Holders

A Non-Resident Holder of APM Shares who dissents from the Arrangement (a "Dissenting Non-Resident Holder") will be deemed to have transferred such Holder's APM Shares to APM, and will be entitled to receive a payment from APM of an amount equal to the fair value of the Non-Resident Holder's APM Shares. Non-Resident Holders who intend to dissent from the Arrangement are urged to consult their own tax advisors.

A Dissenting Non-Resident Holder will be deemed to have received a taxable dividend equal to the amount by which the amount received from APM for such Non-Resident Holder's APM Shares, less an amount in respect of interest, if any, awarded by the Court, exceeds the "paid-up capital" in respect of such APM Shares (as determined for the purposes of the Tax Act). The amount of the dividend will be subject to Canadian non-resident withholding tax at the rate of 25% of the gross amount of the dividend, unless the rate is reduced under the provisions of an applicable income tax convention between Canada and the Dissenting Non-Resident Holder's country of residence.

A Dissenting Non-Resident Holder of APM Shares will also be considered to have disposed of the APM Shares for proceeds of disposition equal to the amount paid to such Dissenting Non-Resident Holder less an amount in respect of interest, if any, awarded by the Court and the amount of any deemed dividend. The Dissenting Non-Resident Holder will be subject to tax under the Tax Act on any gain realized as a result of the disposition if such shares constitute "taxable Canadian property" and are not "treaty-protected property" (each as defined for the purposes of the Tax Act) as discussed above under the heading "APM Shareholders Not Resident in Canada – Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses".

Eligibility for Investment

New APM Shares and ICG Shares will be "qualified investments" under the Tax Act for a trust governed by a registered retirement savings plan, a registered retirement income fund, a registered education savings plan, a registered disability savings plan, a tax-free savings account, a first home savings account (collectively referred to as "Registered Plans") or a deferred profit sharing plan, at any particular time, provided the New APM Shares and ICG Shares are listed on a "designated stock exchange" (which currently includes the CSE) at that time.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the holder or subscriber of, or an annuitant under, a Registered Plan, as the case may be, (each a "Plan Holder") will be subject to a penalty tax in respect of New APM Shares and ICG Shares held in the Registered Plan if such shares are a "prohibited investment" (as defined in the Tax Act) for the particular Registered Plan. A New APM Share or an ICG Share generally will not be a "prohibited investment" for a Registered Plan unless: (i) the Plan Holder does not deal at arm's length with New APM or ICG, as applicable, for the purposes of the Tax Act, or (ii) the Plan Holder has a "significant interest" (as defined in the Tax Act) in New APM or ICG, as applicable. In addition, the New APM Shares and the ICG Shares will not be a prohibited investment for a Registered Plan if such securities are "excluded property" (as defined in the Tax Act) in respect of such Registered Plan. Plan Holders are advised to consult their own tax advisors with respect to whether the New APM Shares or the ICG Shares are "prohibited investments" having regard to their particular circumstances.

ANNUAL MATTERS

This section includes information required to be presented by APM in an information circular for APM’s annual general meeting. A simple majority of affirmative votes cast at the Meeting is required to pass the resolutions described below. If there are more nominees for election as directors or appointment of the Company’s auditor than there are vacancies to fill, those nominees receiving the greatest number of votes will be elected or appointed, as the case may be, until all such vacancies have been filled. If the number of nominees for election or appointment is equal to the number of vacancies to be filled all such nominees will be declared elected or appointed by acclamation.

Interest of Certain Persons or Companies in Matters to be Acted Upon

Except as described under “The Arrangement” above, no director or executive officer of APM, nor any person who has held such a position since the beginning of the last completed financial year end of APM, nor any proposed nominee for election as a director of APM, nor any associate or affiliate of the foregoing persons, has any substantial or material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in any matter to be acted on at the Meeting other than the election of directors, the appointment of the auditor and as set out herein.

Financial Statements

Pursuant to the BCBCA, the directors of APM will place before the shareholders at the Meeting the audited financial statements of APM for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, together with the auditor’s report thereon, and the unaudited interim financial statements of APM for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, together with the Management Discussion and Analysis thereon. Shareholder approval is not required in relation to the financial statements. These financial statements may be viewed on www.sedarplus.ca under APM’s SEDAR profile.

Setting Number of Directors

The persons named in the enclosed Proxy intend to vote in favour of fixing the number of directors at five (5). The APM Board proposes that the number of directors remain at five (5). APM Shareholders will therefore be asked to approve an ordinary resolution that the number of directors elected be fixed at five (5).

Election of Directors

The term of office of each of the current directors of APM will expire at the Meeting. The board of directors of APM recommends that shareholders vote FOR the election of the five nominees of management listed in the following table.

Each director will hold office until his reelection or replacement at the next annual meeting of the shareholders unless he resigns his duties, or his office becomes vacant following his death, dismissal or any other cause prior to such meeting.

Unless otherwise instructed, proxies and voting instructions given pursuant to this solicitation by the management of APM will be voted for the election of the proposed nominees. If any proposed nominee is unable to serve as a director, the individuals named in the enclosed form of proxy reserve the right to nominate and vote for another nominee in their discretion.

Nominees for Election

The following are the nominees proposed for election as directors of APM, together with the number of voting securities of APM that are beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, or over which control or direction is exercised, by each nominee. All of the nominees are currently directors of APM. Each of the nominees has agreed to stand for election and we are not aware of any intention of any of them not to do so. If, however, one or more of them should become unable to stand for election, it is likely that one or more other persons would be nominated at the Meeting for election and, in that event, the persons designated in the form of proxy will vote in their discretion for a substitute nominee.

Audit Committee Oversight

The Audit Committee has not made any recommendations to the APM Board to nominate or compensate any external auditor, other than Davidson.

This exemption exempts a “venture issuer” from the requirement to have 100% of the members of its Audit Committee independent, as would otherwise be required by NI 52-110.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Securities legislation requires the disclosure of the compensation received by each NEO of APM for the most recently completed financial year. “Named Executive Officer” is defined by the legislation to mean: (i) the Chief Executive Officer of APM; (ii) the Chief Financial Officer of APM; (iii) the most highly compensated executive officer or the most highly compensated individual acting in a similar capacity, other than the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, at the end of the most recently completed financial year and whose total compensation was, individually, more than C$150,000 for that financial year; and (iv) each individual who would be a “Named Executive Officer” under paragraph (iii) but for the fact that the individual was neither an executive officer of APM, nor acting in a similar capacity, at the end of the most recently completed financial year.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company had four NEOs: Warwick Smith, the CEO of the Company; Joness Lang, the President of the Company, Alnesh Mohan, the CFO and Corporate Secretary of the Company, and Peter Mercer, Senior Vice President, Advance Projects and President of Constantine North Inc.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Company does not have a formal compensation program. The APM Board, through the Compensation Committee, meets to discuss and determine management compensation, without reference to formal objectives, criteria or analysis.

The APM Board also assumes responsibility for reviewing and monitoring the long-range compensation strategy for the senior management of the Company. The APM Board receives independent competitive market information on compensation levels for executives.

The compensation for executives includes four components: base consulting fees, bonus (if applicable), stock options and perquisites. As a package, the compensation components are intended to satisfy the objectives of the compensation program (that is, to attract, retain and motivate qualified executives). There are no predefined or standard termination payments, change of control arrangements or employment contracts.

Philosophy and Objectives

The Company’s compensation policies and programs are designed to be competitive with similar mining exploration companies and to recognize and reward executive performance consistent with the success of the Company’s business. The compensation program for the senior management of the Company is designed to ensure that the level and form of compensation achieves certain objectives, including (a) attracting and retaining talented, qualified and effective executives, (b) motivating the short and long-term performance of these executives; and (c) better aligning their interests with those of the Company’s shareholders.

In compensating its senior management, the Company has encouraged equity participation and in furtherance thereof employs the APM Option Plan, which was adopted by the APM Board on March 8, 2018.

Equity Participation

The Company believes that encouraging its executives and employees to become shareholders is the best way of aligning their interests with those of its shareholders. Equity participation has been accomplished through the issuance of APM Shares and the APM Option Plan. Options are granted to executives and employees taking into account a number of factors, including the amount and term of Options previously granted, base consulting fees and bonuses and competitive factors. The amounts and terms of Options granted are determined by the APM Board.

Given the evolving nature of the Company’s business, the APM Board continues to review the overall compensation plan for senior management so as to continue to address the objectives identified above.

Option-Based Awards

The Company has established the APM Option Plan to provide incentive to qualified parties to increase their proprietary interest in the Company and thereby encourage their continuing association with the Company. Management proposes Option grants to the APM Board based on such criteria as performance, previous grants, and hiring incentives. All Option grants require approval of the APM Board.

The APM Option Plan is administered by the APM Board and provides that Options will be granted to directors, officers, employees or consultants of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company.

See “Securities Authorized For Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans” for further information on the APM Option Plan.

APM Option Plan

The Board approved the adoption of the APM Option Plan on March 8, 2018.

The APM Option Plan is a rolling plan, and a maximum of 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company at the time an Option is granted, less common shares reserved for issuance on exercise of APM Options then outstanding under the APM Option Plan, are reserved for APM Options to be granted at the discretion of the APM Board to eligible optionees. At the date of this Circular, there were 11,295,546 Options outstanding.

SECURITIES AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE UNDER EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS

The only equity compensation plan the Company has in place is the APM Option Plan which was previously approved by the APM Board on March 8, 2018. The APM Option Plan was adopted by the APM Board effective on the date the APM Shares listed on the CSE.

The APM Option Plan is administered by the APM Board and has been established to provide incentive to qualified parties to increase their proprietary interest in the Company and thereby encourage their continuing association with the Company.

The APM Option Plan provides that Options will be issued to directors, officers, employees and service providers of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company.

The APM Option Plan provides that the number of common shares issuable under the APM Option Plan, together with all of the Company's other previously established or proposed share compensation arrangements, may not exceed 10% of the aggregate number of common shares outstanding from time to time.

APM Options may be granted under the APM Option Plan to such service providers of the Company and its affiliates, if any, as the APM Board may from time to time designate. The exercise prices will be determined by the APM Board, but will, in no event, be less than the closing market price of common shares on (a) the trading say prior to the date of grant of the APM Options; and (b) the date of grant of the APM Options. All APM Options granted under the APM Option Plan will expire not later than the date that is ten years from the date that such APM Options are granted.

Options granted under the APM Option Plan are not transferable or assignable other than by testamentary instrument or pursuant to the laws of succession.

The following table sets out equity compensation plan information as at the financial year ended December 31, 2024.

INDEBTEDNESS OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

No director or officer of APM, or any associate or affiliate of such person is or has ever been indebted to APM; nor has any such person's indebtedness to any other entity been the subject of a guarantee, support agreement, letter of credit or similar arrangement or understanding provided by APM.

INTEREST OF INFORMED PERSONS IN MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS

Except as otherwise disclosed this Circular, to the knowledge of management of APM, no informed person (a director, officer or holder of 10% or more of the APM Shares) or nominee for election as a director of APM or any associate

50


or affiliate of any informed person or proposed director had any interest in any transaction which has materially affected or would materially affect APM or any of its subsidiaries during the most recently completed financial year end, or has any interest in any material transaction in the current year. The directors and officers of APM have an interest in the resolutions concerning the approval of the Arrangement, the election of directors and ratification and approval of the APM Option Plan. In particular, Warwick Smith (Chief Executive Officer and Director of APM), Joness Lang (President and Director of APM), and Ali Hakimzadeh (Director of APM) each acquired 1,000,000 ICG Shares at a price of $0.03 per ICG Share in early October 2025, which may be considered to constitute an interest in connection with the Arrangement. Except as described above, no director or senior officer of APM or any associate of the foregoing has any substantial interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of shares or otherwise in the matters to be acted upon at the Meeting, except for any interest arising from the ownership of APM Shares where such director or officer of APM will receive no extra or special benefit or advantage not shared on a pro rata basis by all APM Shareholders, including as a result of the Arrangement.

MANAGEMENT CONTRACTS

Except as set out herein, there are no management functions of the Company which are to any substantial degree performed by a person or company other than the directors or senior officers of the Company.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE DISCLOSURE

General

Effective June 30, 2005, National Instrument 58-101 and NP 58-201 were adopted in each of the provinces and territories of Canada. NI 58-101 requires issuers to disclose the corporate governance practices that they have adopted. NP 58-201 provides guidance on corporate governance practices.

The Board believes that good corporate governance improves corporate performance and benefits all Shareholders. The CSA have adopted NP 58-201, which provides non-prescriptive guidelines on corporate governance practices for reporting issuers such as the Company. In addition, the CSA has implemented National Instrument 58-101F2 Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices, which prescribes certain disclosure by the Company of its corporate governance practices. This section sets out the Company's approach to corporate governance and addresses the Company's compliance with NI 58-101.

Board of Directors

Directors are considered to be independent if they have no direct or indirect material relationship with the Company. A "material relationship" is a relationship which could, in the view of the Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a director's independent judgment.

Management has been delegated the responsibility for meeting defined corporate objectives, implementing approved strategic and operating plans, carrying on the Company's business in the ordinary course, managing cash flow, evaluating new business opportunities, recruiting staff and complying with applicable regulatory requirements. The Board facilitates its independent supervision over management by reviewing and approving long-term strategic, business and capital plans, material contracts and business transactions, and all debt and equity financing transactions. Through its Audit Committee, the Board examines the effectiveness of the Company's internal control processes and management information systems. The Board reviews executive compensation and recommends stock option grants.

The independent members of the Board are Ken Cunningham and Ali Hakimzadeh.

The non-independent members of the Board are Warwick Smith, CEO of the Company, Joness Lang, President of the Company and Eric Saderholm, the former President of the Company who resigned from his officer position on July 31, 2023.

The following directors of the Company are directors of other reporting issuers:

  • Warwick Smith is a director of Canter Resources Corp. and Trail Blazer Capital Corp.

51


  • Joness Lang is a director of Canter Resources Corp. and Apex Critical Metals Corp.
  • Eric Saderholm is a director of Canter Resources Corp.
  • Ken Cunningham is a director of Canter Resources Corp.
  • Ali Hakimzadeh is a director of Plurilock Security Inc.

Orientation and Continuing Education

When new directors are appointed, they receive orientation, commensurate with their previous experience, on the Company’s properties, business, technology and industry and on the responsibilities of directors.

Board meetings may also include presentations by the Company’s management and employees to give the directors additional insight into the Company’s business.

Ethical Business Conduct

The Board has found that the fiduciary duties placed on individual directors by the Company’s governing corporate legislation and the common law and the restrictions placed by applicable corporate legislation on an individual director’s participation in decisions of the Board in which the director has an interest have been sufficient to ensure that the Board operates independently of management and in the best interests of the Company.

Nomination of Directors

The Board considers its size each year when it considers the number of directors to recommend to the shareholders for election at the annual meeting of shareholders, taking into account the number required to carry out the Board’s duties effectively and to maintain a diversity of views and experience.

The Board does not have a nominating committee, and these functions are currently performed by the Board as a whole. However, if there is a change in the number of directors required by the Company, this policy will be reviewed.

Compensation

The Board determines compensation for the directors and CEO, following recommendations from the Compensation Committee.

Other Board Committees

In addition to the Audit Committee, the Board has established a Compensation Committee that is responsible for determining and recommending to the Board the compensation for the CEO and other NEOs. The current members of the Compensation Committee are Ken Cunningham and Joness Lang.

Assessments

The Board monitors the adequacy of information given to directors, communication between the Board and management and the strategic direction and processes of the Board and committees.

INFORMATION CONCERNING NEW APM (APM AFTER THE ARRANGEMENT)

Upon completion of the Arrangement, each APM Shareholder, other than a Dissenting Shareholder, will remain a securityholder of APM. Following completion of the Arrangement, APM will continue as a public company, but will no longer own American Pacific Mining (US) Inc. (“APMUS”) or Clearview Gold Inc. (“CGI”), each of which will be acquired by ICG pursuant to the Arrangement.

52


Annual financial statements of APM for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, unaudited interim financial statements of APM for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, are publicly filed under APM’s profile on www.sedarplus.ca.

The audited financial statements of ICG and accompanying notes thereto are attached as Exhibit A to Appendix F of this Circular. The audited carve-out financial statements of APMUS and CGI for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, as well as the unaudited consolidated carve-out financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and accompanying notes thereto are attached as Exhibit B to Appendix F of this Circular.

(A) one New APM Option to acquire one New APM Share having an exercise price equal to the product of the original exercise price of the APM Option multiplied by the fair market value of a New APM Share at the Effective Time divided by the sum of the fair market value of a New APM Share

A - 5


and the fair market value of that number of ICG Shares that is equal to the Exchange Ratio at the Effective Time; and

(B) one ICG Option to acquire that number of ICG Shares that is equal to the Exchange Ratio, each whole ICG Option having an exercise price equal to the product of the original exercise price of the APM Option multiplied by the fair market value of that number of ICG Shares that is equal to the Exchange Ratio at the Effective Time divided by the sum of the fair market value of one New APM Share and that number of ICG Shares that is equal to the Exchange Ratio at the Effective Time.

provided that the aforesaid exercise prices will be adjusted to the extent, if any, required to ensure that the aggregate In the Money Amount of the New APM Option and the ICG Option immediately after the exchange does not exceed the In the Money Amount immediately before the exchange of the APM Option so exchanged. It is intended that subsection 7(1.4) of the Tax Act apply to the exchange of APM Options and ICG agrees to promptly issue ICG Shares upon the due exercise of ICG Options.

(vii) the capital of APM in respect of the New APM Shares will be an amount equal to the paid-up capital for the purposes of the Tax Act in respect of the APM Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time, less the fair market value of the ICG Shares distributed on such exchange as determined by the APM Board;

provided that none of the foregoing will occur or be deemed to occur unless all of the foregoing occurs or is deemed to occur.

2.4 Fair Market Value

For the purposes of section 2.3 above fair market value of the New APM Shares and the ICG Shares will be determined by the APM Board, acting in good faith.

2.5 Adjustment


In the event that the number of outstanding APM Shares changes between the date hereof and the Effective Time, the Exchange Ratio referred to in this Plan of Arrangement will be adjusted so that it is calculated by dividing 7,500,000 Consideration Shares by the number of outstanding APM Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time.

2.6 No Fractional Shares or Options

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Arrangement, no fractional ICG Shares will be distributed to the APM Shareholders and no fractional ICG Options will be distributed to the APM Optionholders and, as a result, all fractional amounts arising under this Plan of Arrangement will be rounded down to the next whole number without any compensation therefor.

becoming an insider of the Purchaser, an equivalent number of special warrants in the capital of the Vendor (the "Special Warrants");

(b) Each Special Warrant shall entitle the Vendor to acquire, for no additional consideration and upon the conversion thereof, one Purchaser Share, provided that such conversion will not cause the Vendor to an insider of the Purchaser under applicable securities laws (the "Ownership Limit").

The Indemnified Party shall promptly give written notice to the Indemnifier of any Indemnity Claim in respect of which the Indemnified Party intends to claim for indemnification against the Indemnifier.

If the Indemnifier fails to do so, the Indemnified Party may make such payment or post security therefore and the Indemnifier shall, forthwith after demand by the Indemnified Party, reimburse the Indemnified Party for any such payment or cause the security to be replaced and released. If the amount of any liability of the Indemnified Party under the Indemnity Claim in respect of which such a payment was made, as finally determined, is less than the amount which was paid by the Indemnifier to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall, forthwith after receipt of the difference from the Third Party, pay the amount of such difference to the Indemnifier;

(b) the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifier shall co-operate fully with each other with respect to Indemnity Claims, shall keep each other fully advised with respect thereto (including supplying copies of all relevant documentation promptly as it becomes available) and shall each designate a senior officer who will keep himself or herself informed about and be prepared to discuss the Indemnity Claim with his or her counterpart and with counsel at all reasonable times; and

Attention: Board of Directors

Dear Sirs:

Subject: Fairness Opinion

1.0 Introduction

1.01 Evans & Evans, Inc. (“Evans & Evans” or the “authors of the Opinion”) was engaged by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of American Pacific Mining Corp. (“APM” or the “Issuer”) to prepare a Fairness Opinion (the “Opinion”) with respect to the proposed acquisition of an undivided 100% interest in certain of APM’s gold-silver properties in Nevada by ICG Silver & Gold Ltd. (“ICG” or the “Purchaser” and together with APM, the “Companies”) in exchange for common shares of ICG and a contingent payment (the “Potential Transaction”). The Potential Transaction is summarized in section 1.03 of this Opinion.

Evans & Evans has been requested by the Board to prepare the Opinion to provide an independent opinion as to the fairness of the Potential Transaction, from a financial point of view to the holders (the “APM Shareholders”) of common shares of APM (“APM Shares”).

APM is a reporting issuer whose shares are listed for trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) under the symbol “USGD”. ICG is a newly formed exploration company with no mineral property interests.

1.02 Unless otherwise noted, all monetary amounts referenced herein are Canadian dollars.

1.03 As of the date of the Opinion, the Companies had agreed to the business terms of the Potential Transaction which were set out in a draft Arrangement Agreement (the “Agreement”) and related Share Exchange Agreement (“SEA”). The key terms of the Potential Transaction are highlighted below.

Share and that number of ICG Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio at the effective time, provided that the aforesaid exercise prices will be adjusted to the extent, if any, required to ensure that the aggregate in the money amount² of the New APM Option and the ICG Option immediately after the exchange does not exceed the in the money amount immediately before the exchange of the APM Option so exchanged.

  1.

  1. In addition to the Consideration Shares, the SEA sets out the following contingent amount payable from ICG to APM: US$5,000,000 within five (5) business days of achieving commercial production at the Tuscarora Property or the Danny Boy Property (the “Contingent Payment”).

The Agreement does not set out customary provisions with respect to APM receiving a superior offer for the Target Properties upon announcement of the Potential Transaction; however, there is no termination fee and the Issuer may terminate the Agreement if it enters into an alternative transaction. The Agreement does set out an expense reimbursement of up to $400,000 payable by APM to ICG if the Proposed Transaction is canceled under certain scenarios as set out in the Agreement.

The SEA also sets out that if the issuance of any Retained Shares would result in APM becoming an insider of the ICG under applicable securities laws, then, subject to the approval of the CSE, ICG shall issue to APM, in lieu of that portion of such Retained Shares that would result in APM becoming an insider of ICG, an equivalent number of special warrants in the capital of ICG (the “Special Warrants”). Each Special Warrant shall entitle APM to acquire, for no additional consideration and upon the conversion thereof, one ICG Share, provided that such conversion will not cause APM to an insider of ICG under applicable securities laws (the “Ownership Limit”).

Each Special Warrant shall: (i) be convertible only to the extent that such conversion does not result in APM exceeding the Ownership Limit, and further, shall be convertible upon not less than 61 days’ prior written notice to ICG or immediately upon the announcement of a sale, merger, take-over, arrangement or other equivalent transaction involving the ICG or any of the Target Properties (at all times subject to the Ownership Limit); (ii) be non-transferable and non-assignable, except to an affiliate of APM with the prior written consent of ICG and, if required, the CSE; and (iii) confer no voting, dividend or other shareholder rights prior to conversion. The Special Warrants shall be in a form agreed to by the parties, each acting reasonably, and subject to acceptance by the CSE.

The reader should be advised that three directors of APM, each of whom, to the knowledge of Evans & Evans, declared his interest to the Board and abstained from all deliberations and voting in respect of the Potential Transaction, each hold 1.0 million ICG Shares prior to the Proposed Transaction that are subject to the following escrow conditions: (i) 15% upon listing of ICG on the CSE; (ii) 21.25% 12 months from the listing date; (iii) 21.25% 16 months from the listing date; (iv) 21.25% 20 months from the listing date; and (v) 21.25% 24 months from the listing date.

The Potential Transaction had not been announced as of the date of the Opinion.

1.04 The Board has engaged Evans & Evans to act as an independent advisor to APM and to prepare and deliver the Opinion to the Board to provide an independent opinion as to the fairness of the Potential Transaction, from a financial point of view to the APM Shareholders as of December 5, 2025.

1.05 APM was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on July 1, 2017, and is in the business of mineral exploration. APM, as of the date of the Opinion, had nine wholly owned subsidiaries. The Issuer’s flagship project is the Madison copper-gold project (“Madison Project”), located just south of Butte, Montana.

From January to November 2025, the Issuer made the following announcements with respect to its mineral properties:

  • In November 2025 the Issuer announced it has amended and staked nine strategically located claims the Madison Project.
  • On November 13, 2025, APM announced that it had entered into a share purchase agreement with Vizsla Copper Corp. (“Vizsla”) for the sale of the Palmer VMS project, located in southeast Alaska (the “Palmer Project”) in exchange for $15.0 million in Vizsla shares at closing and further contingent payments.
  • On October 8, 2025, APM announced the plans for a Phase II drill program at the Madison Project following receipt of a new drill permit.
  • In July 2025, the Issuer announced results from RC drill holes completed during the Phase I 2025 drilling at the Madison Project. The 3,000 metre Phase I drill program was initially announced in March of 2025 with drilling beginning in April of 2025.
  • On March 3, 2025, the Issuer announced filing of the updated National Instrument 43 101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) Technical Report for the Palmer Project.

In reviewing the Issuer’s news releases, Evans & Evans found that in 2024 and 2025, APM’s corporate updates focused on the Madison Project and the Palmer Project. The Target Properties were not the subject of any news releases in the two years preceding the date of the Opinion.

The following description of APM’s mineral properties is derived from various public disclosure documents and referenced technical reports.

Target Properties

Danny Boy Property

In May of 2023, American Pacific acquired CGI, including the Danny Boy Property, located on the northern extension of the Carlin trend and adjacent to the Tuscarora Property in Nevada. The Tuscarora District, which includes both the Tuscarora and Danny Boy Properties, covers 2,559 hectares. The Issuer is required to make annual payments of $30,000 per year until April 2032 to maintain its interest in the Danny Boy Property.

EVANS & EVANS, INC.


AMERICAN PACIFIC MINING CORP.

December 5, 2025
Page 6

The book value of the Danny Boy Property as of June 30, 2025, was $2,255,740. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Issuer incurred approximately $24,000 in exploration expenditures on the Danny Boy Property. In the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024, the Issuer incurred exploration expenditures of $103,000 and $35,000, respectively on the property.

Tuscarora Property

On November 6, 2017, the Issuer entered into an option agreement (the “Tuscarora Option Agreement”) with Novo Resources Corp. (“Novo”). The Tuscarora Option Agreement was amended on December 18, 2019 (the “Amended Tuscarora Option Agreement”). Pursuant to the Tuscarora Option Agreement, Novo will grant the Issuer the exclusive right and option to acquire a 100% right, title, and interest in and to the Tuscarora Project (the “Tuscarora Option”). Pursuant to the Amended Tuscarora Option Agreement, the Issuer: (a) made $400,000 in cash payments to Novo; and (b) issued 266,667 common shares of the Issuer to Novo. The Issuer owns 100% of the Tuscarora Property.

In addition, to earn the Tuscarora Option, the Issuer will have to incur US$100,000 in expenditures on the property annually, starting on the twelve-month period commencing on the first anniversary of the listing date and per each successive twelve-month period thereafter. This amount has been incurred annually. The Tuscarora Property is subject to a net smelter returns (“NSR”) royalty of 0.5% which may be reduced to nil (0%) by paying US$500,000. In addition, the Issuer is also required to annual payments in the amount of $12,000 to Ely Gold Royalties (“Ely Gold”), the owner of the Tuscarora Property.

The book value of the Tuscarora Property as of June 30, 2025, was $4,714,564. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Issuer incurred approximately $147,000 in exploration expenditures on the Tuscarora Property. In the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024, the Issuer incurred exploration expenditures of $152,000 and $159,000, respectively on the property.

Remaining Properties

Following completion of the Potential Transaction, APM will continue to hold, in addition to the Retained Shares, the following mineral property interests.

Madison Project

On June 26, 2020, the Issuer acquired the fully permitted Madison Project near Silver Star, Montana. The Madison Project is located in the heart of Montana’s prolific copper-gold belt. The Madison Project consists of 136 unpatented and 6 patented claims (2,514 acres), accessed via improved dirt roads. The Madison Project was under an earn-in, joint venture agreement signed by Broadway on April 30, 2019, whereby Kennecott Exploration Company (“Kennecott”), part of the Rio Tinto Group must spend US$30 million to earn up to 70% of the Madison Project (the “MP Earn-In Agreement”). On February 5, 2024,

Kennecott decided not to proceed with the MP Earn-In Agreement; as a result, the Issuer regained 100% ownership of the Madison Project.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Issuer incurred approximately $1.22 million in exploration expenditures on the Madison Project. In the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024, the Issuer incurred exploration expenditures of $222,000 and $1.78 million, respectively on the property.

Gooseberry

On April 23, 2019, the Issuer acquired through staking the Gooseberry Mine in Storey County, Nevada, USA (the “Gooseberry Project”). The Gooseberry Project includes 42 unpatented claims, totaling approximately 708 acres. The Gooseberry Project contains gold-silver bearing quartz-calcite vein structures that are characterized as low-sulfidation epithermal style mineralization typified by banded to cockade quartz textures and the presence of adularia and kaolinite.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Issuer incurred approximately $13,000 in exploration expenditures on the Gooseberry Project. In the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024, the Issuer incurred exploration expenditures of $1.1 million and $28,000, respectively on the property.

Palmer Property

As noted above, the Issuer entered into an agreement to sell the Palmer Property in November of 2025. The Palmer Property had been a significant focus of APM, as the Issuer incurred approximately $3.15 million in exploration expenditures at the property in the six months ended June 30, 2025. In the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024, the Issuer incurred exploration expenditures of $9.6 million and $4.1 million, respectively on the property.

Inactive Projects

In addition to the active projects outlined above, the Issuer has two inactive projects: Rose Hill (Nevada) and Ziggurat (Nevada).

Financial Position and Capital Structure

The Issuer’s working capital at July 31, 2025, was $3,454,726, which does not reflect the fair value of the Vizsla shares to be received in the transaction outlined above. All of the Issuer’s mineral properties are exploration stage and as such the Issuer does not generate any revenue. The net asset value (“NAV”) of APM as of July 31, 2025, was approximately $40.9 million.

APM is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares, of which 184,979,104 are issued and outstanding as of the date of the Opinion. In addition, APM has 9,050,000 stock options outstanding to acquire additional APM common shares at exercise prices ranging from $0.08 to $0.62 per common share.

The last financing completed by APM was on April 16, 2024, when the Issuer completed a non-brokered private placement through the issuance of 22,500,000 units at a price of $0.20 per unit for gross proceeds of $4,500,000.

As of the date of the Opinion, the 20-day VWAP of the Issuer’s common shares was $0.207 per share, implying a market capitalization of the Issuer in the range of $38.25 million.

1.06 ICG was incorporated on August 26, 2025, under the laws of British Columbia. The Purchaser’s primary business objective is to pursue suitable acquisition opportunities. ICG’s activities have been limited to the identification and evaluation of assets or businesses for potential acquisition.

Financial Position and Capital Structure

As at September 30, 2025, ICG had cash and cash equivalents of $19,961 and net working capital of $19,961 reflecting an absence of any current liabilities. Subsequent to the period ended September 30, 2025, ICG issued 6,100,000 common shares at a price per share of $0.03 for total proceeds of $183,000.

ICG is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares, of which 8,250,000 are issued and outstanding as of the date of the Opinion.

4.0 Market Summary

4.01 In determining the fairness of the Potential Transaction as of the date of the Opinion, Evans & Evans reviewed the gold and copper market conditions and the market for exploration and development stage companies.

4.02 According to S&P Global Market Intelligence’s November 2025 Corporate Exploration Strategies study, the global nonferrous exploration budget recorded a modest 0.6% decline

year-over-year ("y-o-y"), decreasing to US$12.4 billion in 2025 from US$12.5 billion in 2024. This marks the third consecutive annual decrease, though the impact was partially mitigated by higher allocations to gold, which helped offset substantial reductions in lithium and nickel budgets.⁴

Gold remains the explorers' favorite, followed by copper, with both commodities enjoying the largest budget increases in dollar terms. In contrast, key critical minerals nickel and lithium recorded significant budget reductions. Exploration in all three top exploration hubs namely Australia, Canada and the United States notably declined, largely due to their weakened junior sectors. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia, Chile and Peru posted gains, driven by stronger gold and copper allocations.⁴

The shift away from generative grassroots programs persists, with grassroots exploration budgets sinking to a record-low share. The number of active explorers also fell to 2,166 in 2025, from 2,210 in 2024.⁴

img-1.jpeg
Grassroots share hit a new low

The junior sector’s exploration budget increased in 2025 after three consecutive years of decline, mainly due to difficulties in securing funding. The juniors' budget increased from US$1.831 billion in 2024 to US$1.873 billion in 2025.⁴

Funds raised by junior and intermediate companies rose 77% to US$3.59 billion in October 2025 which is close to the March 2021 peak of US$3.69 billion. Gold fundraisings achieved a new record-high, while all three commodity groups posted gains, led by the base and other metals group, which more than doubled month over month. The number of transactions also hit a record, climbing 70% to 424 from 250 in September. Significant financings- transactions valued at over $2 million- rose to 205, up from 117 in September. There were 16 transactions valued at over $50 million, up from 10 in September, reflecting that October's jump was broader in scope, rather than being driven by a few high-valued financings.⁵

Funds raised for the base and other metals group doubled to US$1.12 billion to US$523 million in September. Although silver and nickel declined, these decreases were offset by copper's US$540 million increase, with additional support from gains in zinc and cobalt. The number of transactions in this category climbed to 151 from 85 in September, establishing a new record for the group. The number of significant financings rose to 61

  1. The global gold mining market is expected to further expand at a compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) of 3.80% from 2023 to 2037 to US$354.99.⁷

In 2024, Australia and Russia held the world's largest gold mine reserves, estimated at 12,000 metric tonnes, followed by South Africa with 5,000 metric tonnes.⁸ Gold reserves in Argentina, Chile, and Colombia remained unchanged in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter. Argentina’s reserves stayed at 61.74 tonnes, Chile’s remained at 0.25 tonnes, and Colombia’s held steady at 4.68 tonnes.⁹,¹⁰,¹¹

As of 2024, China, Russia, Australia, and Canada were the largest gold producers globally. Total global gold production reached approximately 3,300 metric tonnes, with China alone accounting for an estimated 380 metric tonnes of that amount.¹²

Gold reached record highs of US$3,500 per ounce in April of 2025¹³ and US$3,534 per ounce in August 2025,¹⁴ driven by several tariff-related announcements and plans in the U.S., including reciprocal tariffs on its trade partners, even those with historically close relationships, aimed at reducing the country's trade deficit. The resulting uncertainty, coupled with concerns about a potential rise in inflation and increased tensions between Washington and Ukraine, have led to the increase in gold prices.

Ongoing volatility in the global trade landscape, as the U.S.'s expanding tariff plans sparked reciprocal measures, continued to impact the gold market. Gold reached multiple record highs as economic uncertainties increased interest in safe-haven assets. U.S. recession fears, a weaker U.S. dollar, pockets of supply tightness and inventory building amid worries of impending trade barriers bolstered industrial metals prices but concerns for the impact of constrained trade flows on demand levels and a lingering supply overhang for some metals kept downside risks intact. Consensus gold price targets for the 2025–29 period have been upgraded, while expectations for industrial metals—except for cobalt and zinc—were adjusted lower.¹⁵

In the third quarter of 2025, gold demand including over the counter (“OTC”) transactions increased by 3% y-o-y to 1,313 tonnes. Uncertain global trade policy, geopolitical turbulence and the rising gold price all supported the demand. Central banks remained a key contributor of global demand, purchasing 220 tonnes which indicates a 28% increase quarter over quarter (“q-o-q”). Gold used in technology came under pressure from the

The London Bullion Market Association (“LBMA”) gold price reached US$4,294 per ounce on October 20, 2025, but has since declined. Investor sentiment shifts as the US Federal Reserve (“Fed”) emphasizes that it will move toward a neutral stance and tempers expectations for immediate rate cuts. This increases market uncertainty and volatility, impacting metal markets and risk assets. Persistent inflation, tariff-driven price pressures and signs of a cooling labor market create a complex backdrop requiring careful policy calibration to maintain progress toward price stability.^[17]^

The Fed's hawkish stance has impacted various markets. Bitcoin has sharply declined from its late-October peak amid low odds for a December rate cut. The atmosphere of uncertainty has intensified volatility in US equities, with notable fluctuations observed in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite indexes. As the US Dollar Index briefly strengthened in early November 2025, gold moderated without undermining its fundamental role as a macro hedge.

increasing demand for copper in various sectors, including construction, electrical and electronics, and automotive industries, underpinned by advancements in mining and ore processing technologies. The market's expansion is propelled by the growing electrical and electronics industry, rising construction activities worldwide, and the increasing usage of copper in renewable energy applications. However, the market faces challenges such as environmental concerns related to mining and fluctuating copper prices. Demand for copper ore is influenced by global infrastructure development trends, the burgeoning electric vehicle market, and the shift toward renewable energy sources. Additionally, advancements in telecommunications and the need for high-quality copper in electrical applications shape market demand. Key industries consuming copper ore include the electronics and electrical sector, construction industry, and the automotive sector. The growth of these industries directly impacts the demand for copper ore and concentrates.

The global copper mining market was valued at US$9.26 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow from US$9.61 billion in 2025 to US$13.15 billion in 2032, indicating a CAGR of 5.48% in the forecast period. Copper is mined as composite ore, known as copper oxide ore and copper sulfide. Copper is a necessary component in so many products that the consumption of copper is an important indicator of the economy of a country.^[19]^

4.05 Copper is essential for constructing infrastructure projects such as buildings, bridges, and electric systems. Hence, government initiatives and policies promoting infrastructure development can significantly boost the market.^[20]^ Furthermore, the transition to a clean energy system, powered by technologies like solar panels, wind turbines, and electric vehicles electric vehicle (“EVs”), requires significantly more minerals than traditional fossil fuel-based systems. For example, electric cars need six times more minerals than conventional cars, and wind farms require nine times more than gas-fired plants. The demand for minerals such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, and copper has surged, as these materials are essential for batteries, wind turbines, and electricity networks. As clean energy adoption increases, the energy sector is becoming a dominant force in mineral markets, with demand for certain minerals expected to rise dramatically, especially in scenarios aligned with the Paris Agreement goals.^[21]^

The London Metal Exchange three-month copper price reached US$11,091 per metric tonne on October 29, 2025, supported by the Fed's second interest rate cut and renewed optimism over a potential US-China trade agreement. However, the meeting between the US and Chinese presidents on November 6, 2025, concluded without a concrete deal, which reintroduced uncertainty into the market. Copper prices faced further downward pressure after the Fed issued cautious guidance on future interest rate cuts, and concerns persisted regarding China's weak copper demand. Leading to a decline in prices to $10,803 per metric tonne on November 17, 2025.

After a brief rebound in August and September of 2025, the US manufacturing Purchasing Manager's Index declined from 49.1 to 48.7 in October, signaling ongoing contraction. The construction sector, which is the largest copper consumer in the US, remained cautious in launching new projects due to macroeconomic uncertainty and volatile trade policies, resulting in slower construction activity.

In the absence of updated official US import data since July due to the government shutdown, estimates based on export data from US trade partners indicate that global cathode exports to the US were about 140,000 metric tonnes in August 2025 and about 100,000 metric tonnes in September 2025. Although these volumes mark a decline from earlier months, combined imports for the combined August-September months remained at least 30,000 metric tons higher y-o-y.

7.02 With the approval of APM and as provided for in the Engagement Letter, Evans & Evans has relied upon, and has assumed the completeness, accuracy and fair presentation of, all financial information, business plans, forecasts and other information, data, advice, opinions and representations obtained by it from public sources or provided by the Issuer and the Purchaser or their affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, consultants, advisors or representatives (collectively, the “Information”). The Opinion is conditional upon such completeness, accuracy and fair presentation of the Information. In accordance with the terms of the Engagement Letter, but subject to the exercise of its professional judgment, and except as expressly described herein, Evans & Evans has not attempted to verify independently the completeness, accuracy or fair presentation of any of the Information.

7.03 Senior officers of APM represented to Evans & Evans that, among other things: (i) the Information (other than estimates or budgets) provided orally by, an officer or employee of APM or in writing by APM (including, in each case, affiliates and their respective directors, officers, consultants, advisors and representatives) to Evans & Evans relating to APM, its affiliates or the Potential Transaction, for the purposes of the Engagement Letter, including in particular preparing the Opinion was, at the date the Information was provided to Evans & Evans, fairly and reasonably presented and complete, true and correct in all material respects, and did not, and does not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact in respect of APM, its affiliates or the Potential Transaction and did not and does not omit to state a material fact in respect APM, its affiliates or the Potential Transaction that is necessary to make the Information not misleading in light of the circumstances under which the Information was made or provided; (ii) with respect to portions of the Information that

constitute financial estimates or budgets, they have been fairly and reasonably presented and reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of management of the Issuer and the Purchaser or their associates and affiliates as to the matters covered thereby and such financial estimates and budgets reasonably represent the views of management of the Issuer and the Purchaser; and (iii) since the dates on which the Information was provided to Evans & Evans, except as disclosed in writing to Evans & Evans, there has been no material change, financial or otherwise, in the financial condition, assets, liabilities (contingent or otherwise), business, operations or prospects of the Issuer and the Purchaser or any of their affiliates and no material change has occurred in the Information or any part thereof which would have, or which would reasonably be expected to have, a material effect on the Opinion.

7.04 In preparing the Opinion, we have made several assumptions, including that all final or executed versions of documents will conform in all material respects to the drafts provided to us, all of the conditions required to implement the Potential Transaction will be met, all consents, permissions, exemptions or orders of relevant third parties or regulating authorities will be obtained without adverse condition or qualification, the procedures being followed to implement the Potential Transaction are valid and effective and that the disclosure provided or (if applicable) incorporated by reference in any information circular provided to shareholders with respect to APM, ICG and the Potential Transaction will be accurate in all material respects and will comply with the requirements of applicable law. Evans & Evans also made numerous assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business, market and economic conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond the control of Evans & Evans and any party involved in the Potential Transaction. Although Evans & Evans believes that the assumptions used in preparing the Opinion are appropriate in the circumstances, some or all of these assumptions may nevertheless prove to be incorrect.

7.05 The Issuer and the Purchaser and all of their related parties and their principals had no contingent liabilities, unusual contractual arrangements, or substantial commitments, other than in the ordinary course of business, nor litigation pending or threatened, nor judgments rendered against, other than those disclosed by management and included in the Opinion that would affect the evaluation or comment.

7.08 Representations made by the Issuer and the Purchaser in public disclosure documents as to the number of shares outstanding are accurate.

7.09 Representations made by the Issuer with respect to the size of the Target Properties, are accurate, to the best of management’s knowledge.

7.10 The Concurrent Financing is conducted at a price not less than $0.13 per ICG Share.

7.11 Not less than 30% of the Distribution Shares are released upon the Listing Date.

8.0 Analysis of the Consideration

8.01 As outlined in section 1.0 of this Opinion, the consideration being received for the Target Properties is shares of ICG at closing with the Contingent Payment upon either the Tuscarora or the Danny Property being moved into production.

8.02 At closing of the Potential Transaction, APM will receive 11.5 million ICG Shares, which are separated into the Distribution Shares and the Retained Shares. As outlined in section 1.03 of the Opinion, the Distribution Shares are subject to the Contractual Hold. Evans & Evans based the analysis of the Consideration Shares based on the pricing of the Concurrent Financing. As outlined to Evans & Evans, it is expected that the Concurrent Financing will be conducted at a price of $0.15 per ICG Share. Evans & Evans did, however, conduct a sensitivity analysis as the Concurrent Financing was not completed as of the date of the Opinion.

Given the Contractual Hold, Evans & Evans applied a liquidity discount ranging from 15% to 30% on the Distribution Shares, with the lowest discount applied to the Distribution Shares released 12 months following the Listing Date and 30% applied to the Distribution Shares released on the 24-month anniversary of the Listing Date. No liquidity discount was applied to the Distribution Shares released on the Listing Date and the Retained Shares. The liquidity discount was developed based on a review of various restricted stock studies.

The implied value of the Consideration Shares, based on the Concurrent Financing price of $0.15 was $1,725,000 before the application of the discount and $1,514,000 following the application of the discounts. The end result is an implied price per hectare of the Target Properties in the range of $592 to $674.

8.03 The Contingent Payment is US$5.0 million. In the view of Evans & Evans, given the stage of exploration of the Target Properties, there is significant risk associated with whether or when the Contingent Payment is to be received and as such it cannot be quantified with any level of certainty as of the date of the Opinion.

9.01 In assessing the fairness of the Potential Transaction, Evans & Evans considered the following analyses and factors, amongst others with respect to Properties: (1) precedent transaction analysis (2) guideline public company ("GPC") analysis; and (3) other considerations.

9.02 Evans & Evans did not consider an analysis of APM's market capitalization and trading liquidity as part of the analysis. Post Potential Transaction, the Issuer retains its flagship property (i.e., the Madison Project), the Retained Shares and the shares in Vizsla to be received for the sale of the Palmer Project. As noted above, the Target Properties have not been the subject of any news releases or significant exploration efforts in the 24 months preceding the date of the Opinion. As such, in the view of Evans & Evans, it is not possible to determine the impact of the Potential Transaction on the APM market capitalization.

9.03 Evans & Evans identified 22 transactions involving the sale of gold properties in Canada, the US and Australia between February 2023 and October 2025. The transaction value ("TV") / hectares for the identified transactions ranged from $30 to $54,321 with an average of $3,456 and a median of $381. The TV / hectares multiple implied by the Potential Transaction is a 55% premium to the median.

Evans & Evans reviewed a subset of 17 transactions were the underlying asset had no current 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate ("MRE"), no JORC²⁴ compliant MRE and no historical MRE or historical mining operations. For these transactions the TV / hectares multiples ranged from $30 to $2,811, with an average of $610 and a median of $307. The TV / hectares multiple for the Target Properties is near the average and a 92% premium to the median.

9.04 Evans & Evans considered the TV per hectare implied by the Potential Transaction in relation to the multiples of exploration-stage guideline public companies ("GPCs") whose shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange and the CSE and hold gold projects in Nevada. Evans & Evans found the enterprise value²⁵ ("EV") / hectare of the GPCs was in the range of $443 to $12,471, with an average of $4,145 and a median of $3,447, placing the multiples implied by the Potential Transaction below the average and the median and at the low end of the identified peers. However, as outlined above, there is a material difference in the value per hectare for individual properties and the trading multiples of GPCs with multiple properties. As such, Evans & Evans is of the view, the GPC data provides support for the potential market capitalization of ICG upon its listing on the CSE and less representative of the current value of the Target Properties.

²⁴ The Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves ("JORC Code") is a professional code of practice that sets minimum standards for public reporting of minerals exploration results, mineral resources and ore reserves.
²⁵ EV = market capitalization less cash plus debt / minority interests / preferred shares

In assessing the reasonableness of the above, we considered the following:

  • there are a limited number of directly comparable public companies, when one considers differentiating factors such as stage of exploration, number of properties and how actively the properties are being advanced / explored;
  • no company considered in the analysis is identical to ICG or the Target Properties; and,
  • an analysis of the results of the foregoing necessarily involves complex considerations and judgments concerning the differences in the financial and operating characteristics of the Target Properties, the Transaction and other factors that could affect the trading value and aggregate transaction values of the companies to which they are being compared.

10.0 Analysis of ICG

10.01 In assessing the fairness of the Potential Transaction, Evans & Evans conducted a limited analysis of ICG, given its stage of development and that the Potential Transaction is conditional upon the completion of the Concurrent Financing.

11.0 Fairness Conclusion

11.01 In considering fairness, from a financial point of view, Evans & Evans considered the Potential Transaction from the perspective of the APM Shareholders as a group and did not consider the specific circumstances of any particular shareholder, including with regard to income tax considerations.

11.02 Based upon and subject to the foregoing and such other matters as we consider relevant, it is our opinion, as of the date hereof and the date of the Opinion, that the consideration received under the Agreement is fair, from a financial point of view to the APM Shareholders.

In arriving at the conclusion as to fairness, from a financial standpoint, Evans & Evans did consider the following quantitative and qualitative issues which shareholders might consider when reviewing the Potential Transaction. Evans & Evans has not attempted to quantify the qualitative issues.

a. As outlined in section 9.0 of the Opinion, the metrics implied by the Potential Transaction are supported by a review of the transaction multiples.

b. There is potential for share appreciation of ICG post listing if it trades at metrics similar to peers post Listing Date.

c. The APM Shareholders continue to hold their shares of APM and its flagship property, the Madison Project.

d. The Retained Shares are a source of non-dilutive financing for the Issuer in the future.

e. The Issuer has not significantly advanced the Target Properties in the past three fiscal years, with the focus being on the Madison and Palmer Projects. As such, there is potential that the market is not placing any significant value on the Target Properties.

f. If Special Warrants are issued in lieu of the Retained Shares as outlined in section 1.03 of this Opinion, such Special Warrants do not carry voting rights. Literature supports that often voting versus non-voting securities have limited differences in value, with the theory being voting rights are not inherently valuable is the management of the subject company is making decisions in the best interest of the subject company. In the case of ICG, as the management and directors are significant shareholders, their interests should be aligned and as such the lack of voting control should not materially impact the value of the Special Warrants.

g. ICG does require financing to advance the Target Properties. As outlined in the Agreement, ICG is required to complete the Concurrent Financing. In the view of Evans & Evans, the pricing of the Concurrent Financing must be at least $0.13 per ICG Share in order for the Potential Transaction to be fair to the APM Shareholders.

h. The Concurrent Financing results in ICG having sufficient funds to undertake an exploration program at one or both of the Target Properties and to provide for working capital.

i. The number of shares outstanding in ICG post Potential Transaction is reasonable and establishes a capital structure capable of supporting additional capital raises as ICG advances the Target Properties.

Notice of intention to proceed

243 (1) A company that receives a notice of dissent under section 242 from a dissenter must,

(5) Unless the court orders otherwise, if a person on whose behalf dissent is being exercised in relation to a particular corporate action fails to ensure that every shareholder who is a registered owner of any of the shares beneficially owned by that person complies with subsection (1) of this section, the right of shareholders who are registered owners of shares beneficially owned by that person to dissent on behalf of that person with respect to that corporate action terminates and this Division, other than section 247, ceases to apply to those shareholders in respect of the shares that are beneficially owned by that person.

(6) A dissenter who has complied with subsection (1) of this section may not vote, or exercise or assert any rights of a shareholder, in respect of the notice shares, other than under this Division.

Payment for notice shares

245 (1) A company and a dissenter who has complied with section 244 (1) may agree on the amount of the payout value of the notice shares and, in that event, the company must

(a) promptly pay that amount to the dissenter, or
(b) if subsection (5) of this section applies, promptly send a notice to the dissenter that the company is unable lawfully to pay dissenters for their shares.

(2) A dissenter who has not entered into an agreement with the company under subsection (1) or the company may apply to the court and the court may

(a) determine the payout value of the notice shares of those dissenters who have not entered into an agreement with the company under subsection (1), or order that the payout value of those notice shares be established by arbitration or by reference to the registrar, or a referee, of the court,

D-6


(a) the dissenter may, within 30 days after receipt, withdraw the dissenter’s notice of dissent, in which case the company is deemed to consent to the withdrawal and this Division, other than section 247, ceases to apply to the dissenter with respect to the notice shares, or

(b) if the dissenter does not withdraw the notice of dissent in accordance with paragraph (a) of this subsection, the dissenter retains a status as a claimant against the company, to be paid as soon as the company is lawfully able to do so or, in a liquidation, to be ranked subordinate to the rights of creditors of the company but in priority to its shareholders.

(5) A company must not make a payment to a dissenter under this section if there are reasonable grounds for believing that

(a) the company is insolvent, or
(b) the payment would render the company insolvent.

Loss of right to dissent

246 The right of a dissenter to dissent with respect to notice shares terminates and this Division, other than section 247, ceases to apply to the dissenter with respect to those notice shares, if, before payment is made to the dissenter of the full amount of money to which the dissenter is entitled under section 245 in relation to those notice shares, any of the following events occur:

(a) the corporate action approved or authorized, or to be approved or authorized, by the resolution or court order in respect of which the notice of dissent was sent is abandoned;

(c) the resolution in respect of which the notice of dissent was sent is revoked before the corporate action approved or authorized by that resolution is taken;

(e) the arrangement in respect of which the notice of dissent was sent is abandoned or by its terms will not proceed;
(f) a court permanently enjoins or sets aside the corporate action approved or authorized by the resolution or court order in respect of which the notice of dissent was sent;
(g) with respect to the notice shares, the dissenter consents to, or votes in favour of, the resolution in respect of which the notice of dissent was sent;
(h) the notice of dissent is withdrawn with the written consent of the company; or
(i) the court determines that the dissenter is not entitled to dissent under this Division or that the dissenter is not entitled to dissent with respect to the notice shares under this Division.

Shareholders entitled to return of shares and rights

247 If, under section 244 (4) or (5), 245 (4) (a) or 246, this Division, other than this section, ceases to apply to a dissenter with respect to notice shares,


(a) the company must return to the dissenter each of the applicable share certificates, if any, sent under section 244 (1) (b) or, if those share certificates are unavailable, replacements for those share certificates,

(b) the dissenter regains any ability lost under section 244 (6) to vote, or exercise or assert any rights of a shareholder, in respect of the notice shares, and

(c) the dissenter must return any money that the company paid to the dissenter in respect of the notice shares under, or in purported compliance with, this Division.

Description of Business

Overview

ICG is a recently formed mineral exploration and development company. It is currently focused on acquiring and advancing the Tuscarora District Project in northern Nevada. The company’s strategy is centered on:

  • Advancing the Tuscarora District Project through systematic exploration and technical studies;
  • Building a district-scale geological model; and
  • Progressing the project toward resource definition and future development.

The Tuscarora District Project is a silver/gold epithermal system sitting on the Carlin Trend, about one hour northwest of Elko, Nevada. Upon closing, ICG will control 100% of the approximately 8,000-acre land package, which has had extensive rock chip sampling, thousands of meters of RC and core drilling, and tens of kilometers of CSAMT geophysics completed on the property. ICG fundamentally believes in the long-term value of precious metals exploration, especially silver and gold.

ICG is currently in the process of applying for listing on the CSE, anticipated in Q1 2026.

ICG is led by a technical and management team with extensive experience in exploration, permitting, capital markets, and development of mining projects in the Western United States, including Nevada.

Principal Products or Services

ICG is an exploration-stage company and does not currently mine, produce, or sell any mineral products. None of ICG’s owned properties and controlled land holdings in the Tuscarora District Project, or elsewhere, contain any known or identified mineral resources or mineral reserves as defined under applicable securities legislation. ICG’s exploration activities are focused primarily on silver and gold.

As an exploration-stage issuer with no producing properties, ICG does not generate operating income, cash flow, or revenue. ICG has not completed any current mineral resource estimates on its properties. There is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on any of ICG’s projects, including the Tuscarora District Project. ICG does not expect to receive income from its properties in the foreseeable future.

ICG intends to continue evaluating, exploring, and advancing its projects through additional financings. ICG’s primary objective is to explore and assess the Tuscarora District Project, and it intends to undertake exploration work programs consistent with recommendations from its geological and technical advisors.

Production and Sales

ICG has no producing properties and therefore has no production or sales activities at this time.

Specialized Skill and Knowledge

Mineral exploration and development requires a broad range of specialized skills and expertise, including geology, engineering, environmental compliance, drilling, logistical planning, project management, finance, accounting, and legal. ICG relies on both internal personnel and external consultants who possess these skills. To attract and retain qualified individuals, ICG seeks to maintain competitive compensation structures and consultant arrangements.

Competitive Conditions

As a mineral exploration and development company, ICG may compete with other entities in the mineral exploration and development business in various aspects of the business including: (a) seeking out and acquiring mineral exploration and development properties; (b) obtaining the resources necessary to identify and evaluate mineral properties and to conduct exploration and development activities on such properties; and (c) raising the capital


necessary to fund its operations. The mining industry is intensely competitive in all its phases, and ICG may compete with other companies that have greater financial resources and technical facilities. Competition could adversely affect ICG’s ability to acquire suitable properties or prospects in the future or to raise the capital necessary to continue with operations. See “Risk Factors.”

Cycles

The mineral exploration industry is cyclical. ICG's ability to raise capital and advance exploration programs is heavily influenced by global economic conditions and by fluctuations in the prices of silver and gold. These prices have experienced substantial volatility in recent years and are difficult to forecast. Periods of declining commodity prices can reduce investor interest in exploration companies, restrict access to capital, and negatively impact the economic potential of the Tuscarora District Project.

External events, including global economic disruptions, financial market instability, geopolitical developments, and public health emergencies, may further exacerbate commodity price volatility and financing challenges. Such conditions may affect ICG’s ability to implement its business plans. See “Risk Factors.”

Economic Dependence

As an exploration-stage company with no producing assets or operating revenue, ICG is economically dependent on its ability to obtain external financing to fund its operations and exploration programs. ICG also relies heavily on the Tuscarora District Project, and its future business prospects are dependent on the successful advancement of these Projects.

ICG may additionally depend on a limited number of consultants, contractors, and service providers to carry out key exploration and technical activities. Any disruption in access to financing, the Tuscarora District Project, or essential third-party services could have a material adverse effect on ICG’s business and planned exploration activities.

Environmental Protection

ICG is subject to the laws and regulations relating to environmental matters in all jurisdictions in which it operates, including provisions relating to property reclamation, discharge of hazardous materials and other matters. ICG may also be held liable should environmental problems be discovered that were caused by former owners and operators of its properties. ICG conducts its mineral exploration activities in compliance with applicable environmental protection legislation. ICG is not aware of any existing environmental problems related to any of its properties that may result in material liability to ICG.

Future changes to environmental laws or regulations, or more stringent enforcement, could result in increased costs, operating restrictions, or delays in planned exploration activities. Additional information on environmental risks is provided under “Risk Factors.”

Employees

As of the date hereof, ICG has no permanent full-time or part-time employees. Following the completion of the Arrangement, ICG expects to continue without permanent employees, with operations managed by its directors and officers. ICG anticipates engaging consultants in geology, exploration, and related technical and administrative fields as required.

Foreign Operations and Governmental Regulation

ICG’s mineral projects are located in the United States and are subject to the political, economic, regulatory, and social conditions of that jurisdiction. ICG’s silver and gold exploration activities on the Tuscarora District Project are governed by extensive federal, state, and local laws and regulations relating to environmental protection; the use and management of hazardous substances and explosives; natural resource management; mineral exploration; mine development, operation, and closure; reclamation and remediation; exports; taxation; business dealings with

F-6


Indigenous peoples; labour and occupational health and safety (including mine safety); and the preservation of historic and cultural resources.

Regulatory approvals, permits, and licenses are required for various aspects of ICG’s exploration activities, and such approvals may not be granted on a timely basis or at all. Changes to permitting processes, amendments to taxation or mining policies, shifts in enforcement practices, or broader regulatory changes at the federal or state level could impose additional costs, new restrictions, or delays on ICG’s planned exploration programs. Failure to comply with applicable laws may result in fines, penalties, permit revocation, loss of mineral rights, or requirements to undertake corrective or remedial measures, which could involve significant expenditures. ICG may also be required to compensate third parties for loss or damage arising from regulatory non-compliance.

These regulatory and governmental risks, together with broader U.S. political and economic uncertainties – such as currency fluctuations, inflation, labour issues, or increased environmental advocacy – could have a material impact on ICG’s operations, financial condition, or future profitability. See “Risk Factors.”

Lending Operations, Investment Policies and Restrictions

ICG has not adopted any specific investment or lending policies but will ensure that any investment or debt-related activities undertaken are consistent with the interests of ICG and its shareholders.

Bankruptcy and Similar Procedures

There is no bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings against ICG, nor is ICG aware of any such pending or threatened proceedings. There have not been any voluntary bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings by ICG since incorporation or currently proposed for the current financial year.

Reorganizations

There have been no material reorganizations of or involving ICG since incorporation or currently proposed for the current financial year.

Social or Environmental Policies

At its current stage of development and activities, ICG has limited financial obligations in meeting applicable environmental standards. This may change as ICG advances its projects. Environmental regulations that are applicable to ICG cover a wide variety of matters, including, without limitation, prevention of waste, pollution and protection of the environment, labour regulations and worker safety. While ICG does not currently expect the impact of costs and other effects related to compliance with environmental, health and safety regulations to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations, such regulations are evolving in a manner which is likely to result in stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their directors and employees. Such stricter standards could impact ICG’s costs and have an adverse effect on results of operations. Furthermore, an environmental, safety or security incident could impact ICG’s reputation in such a way that the result could have a material adverse effect on its business and on the value of its securities.

Trends, Commitments, Events or Uncertainties

There are significant uncertainties related to the price of gold, silver, and other minerals, as well as the availability of equity financing required to support current and future mineral exploration and development activities. Mineral prices have experienced substantial volatility in recent years, and similar fluctuations are expected to continue. There is no guarantee that ICG will be able to secure the financing necessary to advance its exploration programs or pursue new opportunities. Any inability to raise funds on a timely basis may constrain ICG’s ability to grow and execute its business strategy. Apart from these risks and those identified under “Risk Factors”, ICG is not aware of any additional trends, commitments, events, or uncertainties that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Tuscarora District Project

Following the completion of the Arrangement, the Tuscarora and Danny Boy projects (the “Projects”, and collectively, the “Tuscarora District Project”) will be ICG’s material property for the purposes of NI 43-101.

The following disclosure regarding the Projects is primarily extracted and derived from the technical report entitled “NI 43-101 Technical Report – Tuscarora Project – Elko County, Nevada, USA” prepared by Steven L. McMillin (the “Author”), dated January 5, 2026 (the “Technical Report”), and is subject to all of the assumptions, information and qualifications set forth therein. A full copy of the Technical Report is available on ICG’s website at www.icgsilverandgold.com.

Property Description and Location

The Tuscarora District Project is located near the community of Tuscarora in Elko County, Nevada, on the eastern slope of the Northern Tuscarora Range at the base of Mount Blitzen, within the Tuscarora and Mount Blitzen 7.5-minute USGS topographic map sheets. The approximate centroid of the Project is at north latitude 41°18'21" N and longitude 116°13'25" W (UTM Zone 11N, WGS84: 565,000 m Easting; 4,573,000 m Northing), spanning portions of Sections 2 and 3, T39N R51E and Section 35, T40N R51E. The Project lies approximately 87 km (54 mi) north-northwest of Elko, Nevada, and is accessible year-round by vehicle. Primary access is via Nevada State Highway 225 north from Elko, then west on Nevada State Highway 226, with local access provided by ranch roads and unimproved single-track roads. The town of Tuscarora adjacent to the Project is powered by the regional electric grid.

Figure 1: Project Location

The Tuscarora District Project comprises 401 unpatented lode mining claims covering approximately 3,246 hectares (8,020 acres). All claims are held under the U.S. General Mining Law of 1872, as amended, on lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM); unpatented claims confer exclusive rights to explore and develop but do not grant unrestricted rights to extract or sell minerals. Annual federal maintenance fees of US$200 per claim are due by September 1, with Elko County filings (Notice of Intent to Hold plus fees) due by November 1; the estimated total filing cost for 2026 is US$91,027, and all claims were in good standing as of the effective date of the Technical Report.

The Tuscarora District Project has good access and infrastructure, is proximal to Elko which serves as a mining service hub with rail and a regional airport, and exploration can be conducted year-round. Nearby electrical infrastructure includes the Tuscarora geothermal plant (approximately $18\mathrm{km}$ north-northeast) and a $345\mathrm{kV}$ high-tension transmission line approximately $14\mathrm{km}$ south, accessible via substation and supplying regional mines. Nearby active mining sites include the underground mine at Jerritt Canyon (approximately $15\mathrm{km}$ east) and the Carlin Trend mines operated by Nevada Gold Mines (approximately $40\mathrm{km}$ south of the Tuscarora District Project).

Ownership and Agreements

ICG Silver & Gold Ltd. has agreed to acquire the Tuscarora District Project (including the Tuscarora and Danny Boy projects) from APM under an Arrangement Agreement dated December 7, 2025, as described under "The


Arrangement" in the Information Circular. APM acquired 100% of the Tuscarora project under an option agreement with Novo Resources Corp. (amended December 18, 2019), having paid US$400,000 in cash, issued 266,667 APM shares, and met annual work requirements; APM announced it held 100% interest on February 3, 2021, with a 0.5% NSR buyable to 0% for US$500,000.

The Tuscarora project is subject to a precious-metals NSR payable to Ely Gold Royalties that varies with gold price: 2% at ≤US$1,500/oz, 3% at >US$1,500 to ≤US$2,000/oz, and 4% at >US$2,000/oz; other minerals bear a 2.5% NSR, and annual minimum royalties have been scheduled from 2018 onward and have been paid through 2025. APM's September 15, 2021 lease assignment with Ubica Gold Corp. covered 77 claims (1,031 acres), incorporating subleases with RS Gold LLC (20-year initial term with escalating annual payments to US$50,000 and a 3% NSR with up to 2% buyback at US$1,000,000 per 1%). A separate Rose Hill Agreement (10-year initial term, extendable 10 years) includes escalating advance royalty payments (paid through 2025) and a 3% NSR with up to 2% buyback at US$1,000,000 per 1%. In May 2023, APM acquired Clearview Gold Inc. (CGI), including the Danny Boy Claims and Lappin Project; Danny Boy carries a 1.5% NSR (0.5% buyback for US$500,000), and Lappin has annual payments and a 3% NSR, with buyback options for up to 2%. Required annual claim maintenance fees for Danny Boy have been paid to date.

Permits and Environmental Assessment

Exploration activities that cause surface disturbance require BLM authorization: up to 5 acres under a Notice of Intent (NOI) with bonding, and for greater disturbance, a Plan of Operations with an Environmental Assessment (and possibly an Environmental Impact Statement) with timelines dependent on site-specific sensitivities. Recent NOI and bonding history includes ROD NVN-96554 (bond US$11,491, dated March 21, 2018) and ROD NVN-98602 (bond US$14,161, dated August 23, 2019); a 2023 notice expired in April 2024, and a replacement notice was filed in September 2024. As of the replacement notice, 24 drill sites and sumps and 664 linear meters (2,178 feet) of overland travel routes were reclaimed and reseeded, and the BLM Tuscarora office issued a release of reclamation liability on October 10, 2025.

ICG does not own surface rights at the Tuscarora District Project. To conduct ground-destructive exploration work, ICG requires exploration approvals from the BLM, which include surface access rights. Water rights are owned by the State of Nevada and are not included with mineral claims; water rights agreements within the project area were not assessed in this report. To the best of the knowledge of the Author, there are no environmental liabilities, significant factors or risks that may affect access, title, or the right or ability of ICG to perform exploration work on the Tuscarora District Project.

History

The Tuscarora district has a rich mining history dating back to 1867, when placer gold was first discovered on McCann Creek. In 1871, rich silver veins trending northeast on the east flank of Mt. Blitzen were discovered. The first silver shipments occurred in 1875. In 1876, bonanza-grade silver mineralization was found in east-northeast-trending veins at the Grand Prize mine. Mines in the northeast trending zone near the Grand Prize included the Independence, Defrees, and Argenta, which were silver-dominant with a silver-gold ratio of about 150:1. The Dexter Mine, just south of town, produced around 40,000 ounces of gold and 100,000 ounces of silver from 1897 to 1935. After 1905, nearly all the district's production came from the Dexter Mine.

Underground mining at Dexter first produced higher-grade silver and gold quartz-adularia veins. As mining progressed, ore zones expanded and the grade declined, consisting of silicified and adularia-altered stockwork quartz-adularia veinlets mixed with smaller quartz veins, all located in lapilli airfall tuffs, dacitic ash flows, and fine-grained epiclastic tuffs. The district produced approximately 204,000 ounces of gold and 7,632,000 ounces of silver from placer, quartz veins, and quartz stockwork mineralization between 1875 and 1990, with an unconfirmed 300,000 ounces of placer gold possibly from the west end of the district. Most of the known historical production figures were gathered from outside the current project boundary.

From 1930 to 1982, the focus was on extracting large quantities of low-grade gold-silver ores suitable for bulk mining. Many early dumps were reprocessed using heap leaching methods. Exploration in the Tuscarora district has been ongoing almost continuously since 1982, with each new operator building upon the work of the previous one. Multiple

F-10


companies have conducted drilling, geophysics, mapping, permitting, and reclamation across the district. Production summarized by Crawford (1992) from Nevada Department of Taxation records indicated Horizon produced 39,976 ounces of gold and 254,660 ounces of silver from the Dexter Open Pit between 1989 and 1991.

Geological Setting, Mineralization and Deposit Types

Regional and Local Geology

The Tuscarora District Project is located within the Great Basin of the Basin and Range physiographic province, situated in the southeastern part of the Eocene Tuscarora volcanic field. The Tuscarora District Project lies within a broad tectono-magmatic belt known as the Interior andesite-rhyolite assemblage and is part of Nevada's largest Eocene volcanic field. The volcanic field features highly deformed Paleozoic sedimentary rocks that belong to the allochthonous upper plate units of the Antler Orogeny, overlain by extensive ignimbrite deposits formed during the Eocene period, with the Tuscarora volcanic field among the most significant sources of these deposits. Multiple calderas occur regionally within the Tuscarora area. Six magmatic episodes (39.97 to 39.3 million years ago) have been identified. Ordovician Valmy Formation underlies up to approximately 1,524 meters (5,000 feet) of Eocene volcanic rocks, intruded by porphyritic biotite-hornblende dacite and overlain by up to approximately 150 meters (500 feet) of Tertiary to Quaternary-age alluvium, gravel, and lacustrine deposits that thicken toward the south.

Structural Geology

The Tuscarora district lies next to and outside the Mount Blitzen eruptive center, which is bound by high-angle normal faults. The district also covers the southeastern flank of the Mount Blitzen anticline, which trends northeast. This anticline is symmetrical and forms an elongated dome created by a large intrusive body that runs parallel to and beneath it. Northwest-striking faults cross the Mount Blitzen boundary faults and contain many veins in the district. Late northeast-trending faults generally dip southeast or are nearly vertical; they have created down-dropped blocks toward the south. The nearby Independence Valley, trending north-northeast, is an east-tilted half-graben that formed during late Cenozoic Basin and Range extension. There has been at least 914 meters (3,000 feet) of vertical displacement between Tuscarora and Wheeler Mountain.

Mineralization

Two deposit types are present within the district. Silver-dominant deposits with high Ag/Au ratios are located in the northern part of the district, while gold-dominant deposits are found in the south. Silver-rich veins are characterized by Ag/Au ratio greater than 100, elevated base metal content, narrow alteration selvages around quartz-carbonate veins, and distinctively high calcium, lead, manganese, zinc, cadmium, thallium, and selenium. Mineralization occurs as gold- and silver-bearing quartz-adularia veins developed within structures connected to the Mount Blitzen volcanic center. These veins are exposed at higher elevations, generally trend southeast, and dip 50° to 85° southwest. The South Navajo vein is the most extensively explored structure, identified through drilling along strike for approximately 1.5 km (0.9 miles). Gold-rich veins are defined by Ag/Au ratio less than 15, lack of significant base metal concentration, boiling textures, widespread silica and adularia alteration, stockwork veining and cavity-filled textures, and characteristically high mercury and molybdenum. Major vein structures within the Tuscarora District Project include Modoc, Eureka, and Golden Calf (west), South Navajo and Dexter Splay (central), and East Pediment (east).

A propylitic alteration assemblage includes chlorite, calcite, albite, sericite, and pyrite. Gold zone alteration is characterized by widespread adularia and silica. Hypogene kaolinite and montmorillonite are present in both zones.

Deposit Model

Mineralization in the Tuscarora District Project aligns with low-sulfidation epithermal Au-Ag-type deposits. Low-sulfidation epithermal Au-Ag deposits form in the upper crust at the paleosurface, roughly 1,500 meters (4,900 feet) below the water table, at temperatures ranging from about 100° to 300°C (200° to 600°F). Epithermal deposits commonly appear as veins or breccias within local extensional or dilational zones, often marked by faults and fractures filled with quartz, carbonate, adularia, clay, and zeolite minerals. These veins usually exhibit banded, colloform, and crustiform textures and display boiling features such as bladed and plumose quartz. Economic minerals in low-

F-11


sulfidation deposits include electrum, silver sulfides, selenides, sulfosalts, and gold and silver tellurides. Gangue minerals typically consist of quartz, adularia, illite/sericite, and carbonate minerals. Pyrite and/or marcasite are also common.

Exploration

Work carried out on the Tuscarora District Project by American Pacific Mining Corp. (APM) in 2018 included 3,143 meters (10,120 feet) of drilling across 17 drill holes and 135 widely spaced gravity station readings throughout the Tuscarora District Project area. In 2019, OceanaGold performed a geophysical survey with 458 gravity station readings and 21 line-kilometers (13 line-miles) of Controlled Source Audio-frequency Magneto-telluric (CSAMT) measurements over the Tuscarora District Project. Gravity surveys in 2018 and 2019 mapped subsurface embayments, structural fabrics, and features consistent with known veins.

CSAMT surveys have been conducted by several operators in Tuscarora, including Franco-Nevada in 2000, Terraco in 2017, Oceana in 2019, and APM in 2022 and 2025. A total of 21 line-kilometers (13 line-miles) of CSAMT was completed on the property for OceanaGold between June 6 and June 21, 2019. Eight targets were identified through the integration of geochemistry, gravity, and CSAMT. A total of 31 line-km along eight N70E lines was used for a CSAMT survey from May 23 to July 3, 2022. Alteration and structure were notable features of the CSAMT inversion, with two-layered alteration complexes interpreted as extending along the lines, consisting of a surface layer of silica alteration underlain by a layer of argillic alteration, and strong vein responses.

KLM Geoscience conducted a controlled-source audio magnetotelluric (CSAMT) survey for ICG Silver and Gold Ltd. at the Tuscarora District Project in Elko County, NV, over 21 days, from November 2 to November 22, 2025. A total of 7 lines were recorded, covering 44,000 line-meters of data. Data were plotted as 2-D pseudo-sections and interpolated into a pseudo-3-D model. Similar to the 2022 data, there are signs of resistivity stratification, which may relate to alteration.

Several operators have conducted ground- and aerial-magnetic surveys. Corona Gold completed a study in 1992, followed by Battle Mountain Gold in 1997 and in-house surveys by Newmont in 2002. Placer Dome was surveyed in 2003, and Golden Predator in 2009. The most recent magnetic survey was carried out by Ubica in 2019.

Soil sample data were collected by Placer Dome (2003), APM, and Ubica Corp. between 2019 and 2022. A total of 3,286 samples are shown, with gold assays displayed as ppb and silver results in ppm. APM (US) collected 1,667 samples on $60\mathrm{m}\times 120\mathrm{m}$ and $50\mathrm{m}\times 100\mathrm{m}$ grids oriented east-west; Ubica collected 1,146 samples on $20\mathrm{m}\times 50\mathrm{m}$ and $50\mathrm{m}\times 100\mathrm{m}$ grids oriented northeast-southwest at $45^{\circ}$; and Placer Dome collected 473 samples on $50\mathrm{m}\times 50\mathrm{m}$ and $100\times 100\mathrm{m}$ grids oriented north-south.

Many operators have collected rock chip samples at Tuscarora. In 2019, Ubica collected 134 rock chip samples and 407 trench samples from eleven trenches. APM collected 419 samples from the Modoc Vein west through the Danny Boy claims between 2018 and 2022. APM (US) sampled veins on the former Ubica ground in 2021, collecting 135 samples. Many of these samples returned bonanza-grade assays, including up to $21,032\mathrm{g / t}$ gold and $38,820\mathrm{g / t}$ silver at Grand Prize; $2,850\mathrm{g / t}$ gold at Modoc; and $882\mathrm{g / t}$ gold at Argenta. In 2023, Danny Boy samples yielded up to $100.84\mathrm{g / t}$ gold and $1,305\mathrm{g / t}$ silver. Eleven trenches were constructed in 2019, with significant assays including 4.11 g/t gold over 1 meter at Trench T4 EXT (WP07 EXT), and $2.00\mathrm{g / t}$ gold over 2 meters at Trench T2 (WP06).

2018 Drilling Program - South Navajo Vein

APM conducted a drill program from April 23, 2018, to June 21, 2018, totaling 3,143 meters (10,120 feet) across 17 holes, including 2,187 meters (7,175 feet) of reverse circulation (RC) drilling in 12 holes and 956 meters (3,137 feet) of diamond core drilling in five holes. The focus was on the South Navajo vein structure to evaluate its down-dip potential. The 2018 drilling program successfully replicated mineralized intersections between drill holes previously conducted by Newcrest Resources and Novo Resources and confirmed the presence of multiple stacked veins within the mineralized vein system. Vein mineralization ranged from trace Au to $18.4\mathrm{g / t}$ Au in fire assay analysis, while screen metallic analysis ranged from trace Au to $27.2\mathrm{g / t}$ Au.

2019 Drilling Program - Targets B and D

OceanaGold carried out a drilling program from September 12, 2019, to October 21, 2019, to assess Targets B and D, totaling 2,298 meters (7,538 feet) across seven holes—including 1,897 meters (6,225 feet) of RC drilling in six holes and 400 meters (1,313 feet) of diamond core drilling in one hole. Three RC holes and one core hole tested Target B, while three RC holes focused on Target D. Target B holes intersected faults near an andesite intrusion with crystalline pyrite and quartz veining; Target D holes encountered a fault with limited alteration, with anomalous Au-pyrite. The 2019 drilling program successfully identified fault structures beneath cover and detected anomalous gold and silver mineralization within Target B and Target D.

Drilling in the South Navajo area identified a potential third gold zone beneath known mineralization, and drilling and sampling along the Modoc Vein swarm have highlighted the possibility of a new gold-bearing sulfide system in a region with limited historical drilling. Two holes in the Modoc area were drilled to sufficient depth to reach the older Paleozoic basement rocks beneath the host volcanic units, encountering strong sulfide mineralization and anomalous gold values in Ordovician Valmy and Vinini Formations.

ICG Silver & Gold Ltd. has not drilled on the Tuscarora District Project.

Sampling, Analyses and Data Verification

Work carried out on the Tuscarora District Project by APM from 2020 onward involved soil, rock, and drill sample collection and analysis. Sample preparation, analysis, and security protocols were established to ensure data quality and integrity. Soil and rock samples were prepared and analyzed at Paragon Geochemical in Reno, Nevada. APM and Paragon are independent entities. Reverse circulation (RC) drill samples were collected on 2.5 meter (5-foot) intervals. Core samples were collected at approximately 20 samples per 100 feet. The entire core was sent for assay to mitigate sample variability associated with coarse gold and reduce the nugget effect. Drill samples were kept at the active drill site and collected regularly by Paragon personnel. Soil and rock samples were usually delivered by hand to Paragon. Upon receipt at the laboratory, soil samples were inventoried, weighed, dried at 100°C, and sieved to 80-mesh with 80 grams of material retained. Rock and drill samples were inventoried, weighed, dried, crushed to 70% passing 10 mesh, riffle split to 250 grams, and pulverized to 85% passing 200 mesh.

All samples were analyzed for gold and silver using the following methods: (1) 50AR-MS – 50 Element Suite using a 0.5 gram Aqua Regia (AR) digestion followed by ICP-MS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry); (2) AUAG-GR30 – Gold and silver analysis with a 30 gram fire assay with a gravimetric finish; (3) Au-FA30 – Gold analysis using a 30 gram fire assay combined with Aqua Regia digestion, followed by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) or Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES); (4) OLAR-OES – Over limits Aqua Regia Digestion and Analysis in instances where elemental concentrations exceed standard ranges; (5) PA-AU02 – PhotonAssay™ to duplicate gold assays; and (6) S-LECO – Total Sulfur Analysis using the LECO method. Paragon Geochemical in Reno, Nevada, is an independent commercial laboratory.

Certified reference materials (blanks and standards), as well as duplicates, were inserted into the sample stream every 20 samples. This procedure was used for all sample types. Drill assays were cataloged by hole in a drill tracker spreadsheet. Standard performance was also checked in a comparative spreadsheet. Because of the coarse nature of gold mineralization, multiple repeat fire assays were performed on select samples. Drill effluent was also passed over a sluice, and coarse and fine material were assayed separately and tracked on comparative spreadsheets. The Author visited the Tuscarora District Project on December 16, 2025. Several mine sites were inspected to examine veins and alteration zones, and four samples were collected. Rock, soil, and drill databases were reviewed as data were gathered for this report. Drill and sample certificates are in good order. It is the Author's opinion that the amount and quality of data are adequate for the compilation of this report and that, because of coarse gold and the probability of highly variable assays, the quality assurance and quality control methods used were adequate to obtain the best quality assays.

Mineral Processing and Metallurgical Testing

There is no data on mineral processing or metallurgical testing

Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves

There have been no resource estimates. No mineral resource or mineral reserve estimates have been completed for the Tuscarora District Project.

Mining Operations

The Technical Report does not include an economic analysis of the deposit, mineral extraction, recovery, processing, resources, or reserves. As the Tuscarora District Project is an early-stage exploration property without defined mineral resources or reserves, there are no current or proposed mining operations. The report should not be used for development decisions.

Processing and Recovery Operations

The Technical Report does not include an economic analysis of the deposit, mineral extraction, recovery, processing, resources, or reserves. No processing or recovery operations have been proposed or evaluated, as the Tuscarora District Project remains in the exploration stage without mineral resource estimates.

Infrastructure, Permitting and Compliance Activities

Tuscarora has approximately 100 residents, with a median age of 68. The town has a post office but lacks permanent businesses. Roads leading to Tuscarora are well-maintained for year-round access. The Tuscarora geothermal plant, located about 18 km (11 miles) north-northeast of Tuscarora, produces power for local use. To meet increased power demands in a mining operation, a 345 kV high-tension line extends for roughly 14 km (9 miles) south of Tuscarora and is accessible via a substation. Elko is the nearest community with food, lodging, and supplies. It functions as a central mining service hub for northern Nevada and the western U.S., providing easy access to equipment, contractors, and skilled workers. Elko is connected by the transcontinental railroad and has a regional airport with daily commercial flights from Salt Lake City, Utah. Nearby active mining sites include the underground mine at Jerritt Canyon, which is 15 km (9 mi) east, and the Carlin Trend mines operated by Nevada Gold Mines, approximately 40 km (25 mi) south of the Tuscarora District Project.

The Tuscarora District Project is located on federal land managed by BLM, which requires permits for significant disturbances caused by exploration activities. A Notice of Intent (NOI) permit covers up to 5 acres of disturbance and requires a bond to address potential environmental liabilities related to the activity. If more than five acres of disturbance are planned, a Plan of Operations must be submitted to the BLM, which requires an Environmental Assessment with an archaeological review. Depending on the area's environmental and ecological sensitivity, an Environmental Impact Statement may also be necessary. The 2022 drilling program was conducted under ROD NVN-96554, dated March 21, 2018, with a bond amount of US$11,491. The 2019 drilling program was carried out under ROD NVN-98602, dated August 23, 2019, with a bond amount of US$14,161. A notice for additional work in 2023 expired in April 2024. A new replacement notice was filed in September 2024. Since then, 24 drill sites and sumps, along with 664 linear meters (2,178 feet) of overland travel route, have been reclaimed and reseeded. On October 10, 2025, the BLM Tuscarora office issued a release of reclamation liability.

ICG does not own surface rights at the Tuscarora District Project. To conduct ground-destructive exploration work, ICG requires exploration approvals from the BLM, which include surface access rights. Water rights are owned by the State of Nevada and are not included with mineral claims; water rights agreements within the project area were not assessed in this report. The author is unaware of any environmental issues that could significantly affect the Tuscarora District Project.

Capital and Operating Costs

The Technical Report does not include an economic analysis of the deposit, mineral extraction, recovery, processing, resources, or reserves. No capital or operating cost estimates have been prepared, as the Tuscarora District Project has not advanced to the stage of resource definition or economic evaluation.

Exploration, Development and Production

Despite the extensive history of exploration and production at the Tuscarora District Project, there is still significant potential for further exploration along vein extensions and for building on recent drilling successes. Fourteen target areas should be considered for future work based on previous drilling, rock and soil geochemistry, and geophysics.


Five main target areas are planned for exploration in 2026: South Navajo/Modoc, Dacite, Beard Hill, Grand Prize/East Pediment, and King's Vein. A total budget of US$1,094,891 has been allocated for 3,100 meters of drilling and support.

The Phase 1 2026 exploration program includes: South Navajo/Modoc (2 RC holes at 250 m; US$110,000); Dacite (3 RC holes 200-400 m; US$176,000); Beard Hill (3 RC holes 200 m; US$132,000); Grand Prize/East Pediment (3 RC holes at 200 m; US$132,000); King's Vein (3 RC holes at 200 m; US$132,000); fieldwork including mapping, sampling, and labor (US$75,000); 3D modeling for preliminary geological/resource model (US$20,000); senior geologist for program support/permits (US$25,000); geologist/geotech to assist with operations (US$20,000); BLM bond for NOI disturbance (US$15,000); excavator including snow removal/reclamation (US$10,200); analytical labs for 1,705 samples (US$119,350); supplies including sample bags and shipping (US$22,500); subtotal Phase 1 (US$989,050); contingency approximately 10% (US$105,841); total Phase 1 (US$1,094,891).

A drone or ground-based magnetic and radiometric survey should be considered for the entire property. A radiometric survey measures the concentrations of uranium, potassium, and thorium in bedrock. Potassic alteration is a common feature throughout the district, and such a survey could help map this alteration and related structures.

ICG had negative operating cash flow for the period from incorporation on August 19, 2025 to October 31, 2025. A portion of the proceeds from the Concurrent Financings has been allocated to address this negative cash flow from the period from incorporation on August 19, 2025 to October 31, 2025. If ICG continues to experience negative operating cash flow in future periods, it may need to use a portion of its cash reserves to fund such shortfalls. ICG may also be required to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or debt securities. There can be no assurance that ICG will achieve positive operating cash flow, that additional financing will be available when required, or that any such financing will be available on terms favourable to ICG. See “Risk Factors – Negative Operating Cash Flow.”

ICG intends to spend the funds available to it as stated in this Appendix “F”. However, there may be circumstances where, for sound business reasons, a reallocation of funds may be necessary. Accordingly, while it is currently intended by management that the available funds will be expended as set forth above, actual expenditures may in fact differ from these amounts and allocations. See “Risk Factors”.

Business Objectives and Milestones

Over the next 12 months, ICG has identified certain key short-term objectives and milestones, as described below. Achievements of these objectives and milestones are vital to implementing ICG’s business plan.

Business Objective Milestone Description Approximate Anticipated Cost Achievement Timeline
Planned Drilling Program Approximately 14 RC holes @ 220-600 m @ $220/m $935,000 4-6 months after the Arrangement
Analytical Labs 1705 samples (@75% sample rate + 10% QAQC), at $70/sample $165,000 4-12 months after the Arrangement
Fieldwork and Geologist costs Geologic field evaluation, Resource Model (Preliminary), Geologist $200,000 4-12 months after the Arrangement
Other(1) Land bonds, supplies, etc. $200,000 4-12 months after the Arrangement
TOTAL $1,500,000

Notes:
(1) Includes an estimated cost of $20,000 for Bureau of Land Management bonds, $14,000 in equipment rental, $30,000 in other miscellaneous supplies and $135,000 of unallocated funds for the exploration and drilling program.

From time to time, ICG may also evaluate and pursue the acquisition or development of additional mineral properties or related opportunities, which may require securing additional financing. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available when needed, or on terms acceptable to ICG. See “Risk Factors”.

ICG intends to spend the funds available to it consistent with the “Use of Available Funds” section of this Appendix “F”. There may be circumstances however, where, for sound business reasons, a reallocation of funds may be necessary in order for ICG to achieve its stated business objectives. Accordingly, ICG cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses funds for ICG’s stated business objectives, and the amounts it actually spends could vary from the amounts set forth above. The amounts actually allocated and spent will depend upon a number of factors, including ICG’s ability to execute its business strategy, prevailing industry and market conditions and the results of strategic programs. From time to time, ICG also expects to evaluate and, where appropriate, pursue potential acquisitions of additional mineral properties, interests, or strategic partnerships. Accordingly, management will retain broad discretion to allocate ICG’s available funds. See “Risk Factors”.

Unallocated Funds

Unallocated funds will be deposited in ICG’s bank account and added to the working capital of ICG. The Management of ICG are responsible for the supervision of all financial assets of ICG. Based on ICG’s cash flow requirements,

F-23


management will determine the appropriate level of liquidity required for operations and will draw down such funds as necessary. There may be circumstances where, for business reasons, a reallocation of funds may be necessary in order for ICG to achieve its stated business objectives.

Dividends and Distributions

ICG has not paid any dividends since incorporation, and it has no plans to pay dividends for the foreseeable future. The directors of ICG will determine if and when dividends should be declared and paid in the future based on ICG’s financial position at the relevant time. All of the ICG Shares are entitled to an equal share of any dividends declared and paid.

Options to Purchase Securities

Outstanding Awards

As at the date of the Information Circular, there are no Options or other Awards outstanding.

Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan

An omnibus equity incentive compensation plan (the “Plan”) will be adopted by the Board prior to the Listing. The following summary of ICG’s proposed Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Plan.

The Plan will be administered by the Board (or a committee thereof) and will provide that the Board may from time to time, in its discretion, and in accordance with CSE requirements, grant to eligible Participants (as defined in the Plan), non-transferable awards (the “Awards”). Such Awards may include options (“Options”), restricted share units (“RSUs”), share appreciation rights (“SARs”), deferred share unit rights (“DSUs”) and performance share units (“PSUs”).

The number of ICG Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to Options granted under the Plan will not, in the aggregate, exceed 10% of the then issued and outstanding ICG Shares on a rolling basis. In addition, the maximum number of ICG Shares issuable pursuant to SARs, RSUs, DSUs, and PSUs under the Plan shall not exceed, in the aggregate, 10% of the issued and outstanding ICG Shares, calculated immediately following the completion of the Arrangement and the Concurrent Financings.

On a Change of Control (as defined in the Plan) of ICG, the Board shall have discretion as to the treatment of Awards, including whether to (i) accelerate, conditionally or otherwise, on such terms as it sees fit, the vesting date of any Awards; (ii) permit the conditional exercise of any Awards, on such terms as it sees fit; (iii) otherwise amend or modify the terms of any Awards; and (iv) terminate, following the successful completion of a Change of Control, on such terms as it sees fit, the Awards not exercised prior to the successful completion of such Change of Control. If there is a Change of Control, any Awards held by a Participant shall automatically vest following such Change of Control, on the Termination Date (as defined in the Plan), if the Participant is an employee, officer or a director and their employment, or officer or director position is terminated within 12 months following the Change of Control.

The following is a summary of the various types of Awards issuable under the Plan.

Options

Subject to any requirements of the CSE, the Board may determine the expiry date of each Option.

In addition, no current director or officer or securityholder holding a sufficient number of securities of ICG to affect materially the control of ICG has, within the last ten years prior to the date of the Information Circular, become bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, or become subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangement or compromise with creditors, or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold the assets of the director, officer or securityholder.

Conflicts of Interest

There are no existing material conflicts of interest between ICG and any director or officer of ICG. Directors and officers of ICG may serve as directors and/or officers of other companies or have significant shareholdings in other resource companies and, to the extent that such other companies may participate in ventures in which ICG may participate, certain directors may have a conflict of interest in negotiating and conducting terms in respect of any transaction involving such companies. In the event that such conflict of interest arises at a meeting of the ICG board, a director who has such a conflict is required to disclose such conflict and abstain from voting for or against the approval of such transaction.

The directors and officers of ICG will not be devoting all of their time to ICG. The directors and officers of ICG are directors and officers of other companies, some of which are in the same business as ICG. The directors and officers are required by law to act in the best interests of ICG. They have the same obligations to the other companies in respect of which they act as directors and officers. Discharge by the directors and officers of their obligations to ICG may result in a breach of their obligations to the other companies, and in certain circumstances this could expose ICG to liability to those companies. Similarly, discharge by the directors and officers of their obligations to the other companies could result in a breach of their obligations to act in the best interests of ICG. Such conflicting legal obligations may expose ICG to liability to others and impair its ability to achieve its business objectives.

Executive Compensation

In this section "Named Executive Officer" (an "NEO") means each individual who acted as chief executive officer of ICG, or acted in a similar capacity, for any part of the most recently completed financial year (a "CEO"), each individual who acted as chief financial officer of ICG, or acted in a similar capacity, for any part of the most recently completed financial year (a "CFO") and each of the three most highly compensated executive officers, other than the CEO and CFO, at the end of the most recently completed financial year whose total compensation was, individually, more than $150,000 as well as any additional individuals for whom disclosure would have been provided except that the individual was not serving as an executive officer of ICG at the end of the most recently completed financial year.

Steven Sirbovan (President and CEO) and William Avery (CFO) are the only NEOs of ICG for the purposes of the following disclosure.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

ICG's executive compensation program is intended to be flexible as ICG develops, and is currently consistent with ICG's business plans, strategies and goals, including the preservation of working capital, commensurate with ICG's early stage of development. ICG's compensation policies are intended to motivate individuals to achieve compensation based on corporate and individual results. Nevertheless, given the early stage of development, ICG does not intend to provide compensation to directors and officers, as their motivation will stem from their shareholdings in ICG. Directors and officers who do not already own ICG Shares will be expected to purchase ICG Shares in future financings and/or via market purchases if applicable.

The Board will determine the compensation of ICG's directors and NEOs. In determining compensation, the Board considers industry standards and ICG's financial situation, but does not currently have any formal objectives or criteria. The performance of each NEO is informally monitored by the Board having in mind the business strengths of the individual and the purpose of originally appointing the individual as an officer. The compensation of such individuals may be expected to increase as ICG develops its technology platforms and revenue/asset base.

ICG does not have a compensation committee. The Board has not adopted any specific policies or practices to determine the compensation for ICG's directors and executive officers other than as disclosed herein.

The NEOs and directors of ICG have not received any compensation from ICG as at the date of the Information Circular, except as set out below under "Summary Compensation Table". As of the date of the Information Circular, ICG does not have any stock options issued and outstanding.

Stock Options and Other Compensation Securities

ICG intends to adopt the Plan to assist ICG in attracting, retaining and motivating directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors of ICG and to closely align the interests of such service providers with the interests of ICG. As at October 31, 2025 there were no outstanding compensation securities and none had been granted or issued to the directors and NEOs by ICG or its subsidiaries for services provided or to be provided, directly or indirectly, to ICG or any of its subsidiaries. For information about ICG’s Plan, refer to the heading “Options to Purchase Securities” above.

Omnibus Plans and Other Incentive Plans

For a description of the Plan, see “Options to Purchase Securities.” As of the date of the Information Circular, ICG does not have any other incentive plans aside from the Plan.

External Management Companies

All NEOs are consultants of ICG and no external management company employs or retains individuals acting as NEOs of ICG. ICG has no understanding, arrangement or agreement with any external management company to provide executive management services to ICG.

Employment, Consulting and Management Agreements

On January 1, 2026, ICG entered into an agreement for professional services with 15889626 Canada Corp, pursuant to which Steven Sirbovan will provide services to ICG as Chief Executive Officer. Under the agreement, Mr. Sirbovan will receive a monthly fee of $15,000, payable commencing on the first trading day of ICG’s listing on a “designated stock exchange”. The agreement will continue until terminated in accordance with its terms. ICG may terminate the agreement without cause by providing twelve (12) months’ notice or by making a payment in lieu of notice equal to the compensation otherwise payable during that period. In the event of a termination without cause, all unvested equity awards will become fully vested and vested equity awards will remain exercisable for 90 days following the end of the notice period. If ICG elects to pay the full amount owed in lieu of the notice period, all unvested equity will


immediately vest and, along with any previously vested equity, will be exercisable for 90 days from the termination date. ICG may terminate the agreement for cause without notice or further obligation. Mr. Sirbovan may terminate the agreement without good reason on 60 days' written notice, in which case unvested equity awards will be forfeited and vested equity awards will remain exercisable for 90 days; if Mr. Sirbovan terminates the agreement for good reason following an uncured 30-day cure period, unvested equity as of the termination date will immediately vest and remain exercisable for 90 days thereafter and vested equity awards will remain exercisable for 90 days. If a change of control of ICG occurs and the agreement is terminated by ICG without cause or by Mr. Sirbovan for good reason within 12 months thereafter, Mr. Sirbovan will be entitled to an amount equal to 24 months of the monthly fee. Subject to applicable laws, stock exchange requirements and the adoption of an equity incentive plan, and within 3 months of a public listing, Mr. Sirbovan is eligible to receive: (i) up to 1,000,000 restricted share units upon the implementation of such plan; (ii) up to 1,000,000 restricted share units on the one-year anniversary of ICG becoming public, vesting in four equal quarterly instalments over the following year; and (iii) up to 1,000,000 restricted share units for each mineral exploration asset in respect of which ICG secures a joint venture partner earning an economic interest of at least 15%. The agreement includes confidentiality provisions and sets limits on reimbursable expenses.

On January 1, 2026, ICG entered into a consulting agreement with Jeff Swinoga Professional Corporation, pursuant to which Jeff Swinoga will provide services to ICG including strategic advisory, capital markets support, stakeholder and investor communications support, introductions and networking, and governance and process advisory services. The agreement will continue for an initial term of one year, and thereafter will automatically renew on a month-to-month basis unless either party gives at least 30 days' prior written notice of non-renewal. ICG may terminate the agreement without cause upon 60 days' prior written notice and may elect to provide payment in lieu of notice equal to two months' fees in whole or in part. Mr. Swinoga may terminate the agreement at any time without cause upon 30 days' prior written notice to ICG. Either party may terminate the agreement immediately upon written notice if the other party commits a material breach and fails to remedy such breach within 30 days after receiving written notice, the other party becomes bankrupt or insolvent, the other party enters into any composition or arrangement with its creditors, or if Mr. Swinoga engages in fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence in relation to ICG. Upon termination of the agreement, ICG will pay Mr. Swinoga all unpaid fees and reimbursable expenses properly incurred up to the effective date of termination. Compensation to Mr. Swinoga consists of a monthly fee of $15,000, accruing commencing on the date upon which ICG's common shares are listed on a recognized stock exchange and payable monthly in arrears. Mr. Swinoga is eligible to receive stock options, restricted share units and/or other equity-based awards under ICG's omnibus equity incentive plan, as may be adopted and amended from time to time, in such amounts and at such times as may be determined by the Board in its discretion, subject to the requirements and limits of applicable law and stock exchange policies. Any such equity awards will be evidenced by separate grant agreements and will not form part of the fee for the purposes of notice or any other payment in lieu of notice. The agreement includes confidentiality provisions and standard limits on reimbursable expenses.

On October 15, 2025, ICG entered into a consulting agreement with Avery Professional Corporation, pursuant to which William Avery will provide services to ICG as Chief Financial Officer. The agreement will continue for a one-year term, subject to earlier termination. Either party may terminate the agreement on 30 days' written notice. The agreement also provides for automatic termination upon a merger or consolidation of ICG (unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the parties) or upon bankruptcy or insolvency of either party. In the event of termination by ICG for material breach by the consultant, the agreement may be terminated immediately without further compensation. Upon termination, Mr. Avery will be entitled to payment for services rendered up to the effective date of termination. Compensation to Mr. Avery consists of a monthly fee of $8,000, plus reimbursement of reasonable pre-approved expenses. A one-time signing bonus of 150,000 common shares (valued at $0.03 per share) was also payable and has now been fully satisfied. In addition, within 3 months of a public listing, Mr. Avery is entitled to 225,000 restricted share units or stock options with vesting terms aligned with ICG's standard equity incentive practices, vesting at a minimum over the term of the agreement and prorated in the event of early termination. Vested awards will remain outstanding following termination; unvested awards will be cancelled. Until ICG raises at least $500,000 in capital through debt or equity financing, Mr. Avery will defer $500 of the monthly cash compensation. Upon completion of such financing, all deferred amounts will become immediately payable. The agreement also provides for confidentiality and standard limitations on reimbursable expenses.

On October 15, 2025, ICG entered into a consulting agreement with McCall Geosciences LLC, under which Korbon McCall will provide services to ICG as Vice-President, Exploration. The agreement will remain in effect until terminated in accordance with its terms. Mr. McCall may terminate on 30 days' notice, and ICG may terminate on

F-40


three months' notice or payment in lieu of notice. If ICG terminates without cause, Mr. McCall is entitled to a lump-sum payment equal to three months of the consulting fee at the post-going public rate. If terminated for cause, only accrued but unpaid fees will be payable and unvested equity awards will lapse. If Mr. McCall terminates for good reason, the termination will be treated as a termination without cause by ICG, including the applicable termination payment. Compensation consists of a monthly fee of US$5,500 until ICG completes a going-public financing, and US$7,500 per month thereafter. Within 3 months of a public listing, Mr. McCall will be granted 225,000 restricted share units, subject to the adoption of an equity compensation plan and stock exchange requirements, vesting over the term of the agreement and prorated in the event of early termination. Vested awards will remain exercisable in accordance with ICG's equity plan; unvested awards will be cancelled on termination. All unvested restricted share units will vest immediately upon a change of control of ICG. The agreement also provides for a one-time US$25,000 exploration performance bonus, payable in cash or shares at ICG's election, if the consultant delivers a gold equivalent interval with an accumulation factor of at least 125 (grams × metres), as publicly disclosed by ICG. If ICG is subject to a change of control and Mr. McCall is terminated without cause or resigns for good reason within six months thereafter, Mr. McCall will be entitled to the termination payment described above and to full acceleration of all unvested restricted share units. The agreement includes confidentiality obligations and standard limits on reimbursable expenses.

Termination Payments

For a description of applicable termination payments, see "Employment, Consulting and Management Agreements".

Oversight and Description of Director and Named Executive Officer Compensation

ICG, at its present stage, does not have any formal objectives, criteria and analysis for determining the compensation of its directors and officers and primarily relies on the discussions and determinations of the Board. When determining individual compensation levels for ICG's NEOs, a variety of factors will be considered including: the overall financial and operating performance of ICG, each NEO's individual performance and contribution towards meeting corporate objectives and each NEO's level of responsibility and length of service.

ICG's executive compensation is intended to be consistent with ICG's business plans, strategies and goals, including the preservation of working capital as ICG seeks to complete its listing on the CSE. ICG's executive compensation program is intended to provide appropriate compensation that permits ICG to attract and retain highly qualified and experienced senior executives and to encourage superior performance by ICG. ICG's compensation policies are intended to motivate individuals to achieve and to award compensation based on corporate and individual results.

ICG does not have any arrangements, standard or otherwise, pursuant to which directors are compensated by ICG for their services in their capacity as directors, or for committee participation, involvement in special assignments or for services as consultants or experts. The Board intends to compensate directors primarily through the grant of Awards under the Plan and reimbursement of expenses incurred by such persons acting as directors of ICG.

Pension Disclosure

No pension, retirement or deferred compensation plans, including defined contribution plans, have been instituted by ICG and none are proposed at this time.

Indebtedness of Directors and Executive Officers

No person who is, or who has been, a director, executive officer or employee of ICG or any associate of any of the aforementioned, is or has been indebted to ICG or any of its subsidiaries or to any entity which has been provided a guarantee, support agreement, letter of credit or similar arrangement by ICG at any time before the date of the Information Circular.

Audit Committee

The audit committee of ICG (the “Audit Committee”) will assist the Board in fulfilling its financial oversight responsibilities. The Audit Committee will review and consider in consultation with the auditors the financial reporting process, the system of internal control and the audit process. In performing its duties, the Audit Committee will maintain effective working relationships with the Board, management, and the external auditors. To effectively perform his or her role, each Audit Committee member must obtain an understanding of the principal responsibilities of Audit Committee membership as well and ICG’s business, operations and risks.

Audit Committee Charter

The Board will adopt a Charter of the Audit Committee, which will set out the Audit Committee's mandate, organization, powers and responsibilities. The proposed Charter, which will be adopted substantially in the form attached as Exhibit “D” to this Appendix “F”, is attached hereto.

Composition of the Audit Committee

As at the date of the Information Circular, the following are the members of the Audit Committee:

Independent/Not Independent(1) Financially Literate(2)
Erik Sloane (Chair) Independent Yes
Jeff Swinoga Not Independent Yes
Gary Baschuk Independent Yes

Notes:
(1) A member is independent if the member has no direct or indirect material relationship with ICG, which could, in the view of the Board of Directors, reasonably interfere with the exercise of that member’s independent judgment.
(2) A member is financially literate if such member has the ability to read and understand a set of financial statements that present a breadth of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of the issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by ICG’s financial statements.

In accordance with section 6.1.1(3) National Instrument 52-110 – Audit Committees (“NI 52-110”) relating to the composition of the audit committee for venture issuers, a majority of the members of the Audit Committee are not executive officers, employees or control persons of ICG. All the proposed members of the Audit Committee are considered to be financially literate as required by section 1.6 of NI 52-110. Also see “Corporate Governance”.

Relevant Education and Experience

Each member of the Audit Committee has had extensive experience reviewing financial statements. Each member of the Audit Committee has an understanding of ICG’s business and an appreciation for the relevant accounting principles for that business. In particular, ICG believes that each of the members of the Audit Committee possesses: (a) an understanding of the accounting principles used by ICG to prepare its financial statements; (b) the ability to assess the general application of such accounting principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves; (c) experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by ICG’s financial statements, or experience actively supervising one or more individuals engaged in such activities; and (d) an understanding of internal controls and procedures for financial reporting.

For a summary of the experience and education of the Audit Committee members see “Directors and Executive Officers”.


F-43

Audit Committee Oversight

At no time has a recommendation of the Audit Committee to nominate or compensate an external auditor not been adopted by the Board.

Reliance on Certain Exemptions

ICG has not relied on certain exemptions set out in NI 52-110, namely section 2.4 (De Minimus Non-audit Services), subsection 6.1.1(4) (Circumstance Affecting the Business or Operations of the Venture Issuer), subsection 6.1.1(5) (Events Outside Control of Member), subsection 6.1.1(6) (Death, Incapacity or Resignation), and any exemption, in whole or in part, in Part 8 (Exemptions).

ICG expects to rely on the exemption in Section 6.1 of NI 52-110 from the requirement of Parts 3 (Composition of the Audit Committee) and 5 (Reporting Obligations).

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee has not adopted formal policies and procedures for the engagement of non-audit services. Subject to the requirements of NI 52-110, the engagement of non-audit services is considered by, as applicable, the Board and the Audit Committee, on a case-by-case basis.

External Auditors Service Fees

The following table discloses the fees billed to ICG by its external auditors for the period from incorporation on August 19, 2025 to October 31, 2025:

Audit Fees (1) Audit Related Fees (2) Tax Fees (3) All Other Fees (4)
$7,500 nil nil nil

Notes:
(1) “Audit Fees” include fees necessary to perform the annual audit and quarterly reviews of ICG’s consolidated financial statements. Audit Fees include fees for review of tax provisions and for accounting consultations on matters reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Audit Fees also include audit or other attest services required by legislation or regulation, such as comfort letters, consents, reviews of securities filings and statutory audits.
(2) “Audit-Related Fees” include services that are traditionally performed by the auditor. These audit-related services include employee benefit audits, due diligence assistance, accounting consultations on proposed transactions, internal control reviews and audit or attest services not required by legislation or regulation.
(3) “Tax Fees” include fees for all tax services other than those included in “Audit Fees” and “Audit-Related Fees”. This category includes fees for tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice. Tax planning and tax advice includes assistance with tax audits and appeals, tax advice related to mergers and acquisitions and requests for rulings or technical advice from tax authorities.
(4) “All Other Fees” include all other non-audit services.

Corporate Governance Disclosure

Corporate governance refers to the policies and structure of the Board of a corporation, whose members are elected by and are accountable to the shareholders of the company. Corporate governance encourages establishing a reasonable degree of independence of the Board from executive management and the adoption of policies to ensure the Board recognizes the principles of good management. The Board is committed to sound corporate governance practices, as such practices are both in the interests of shareholders and help to contribute to effective and efficient decision-making.

ICG’s corporate governance practices are summarized below.

Independence of Members of Board

Directors are considered to be independent if they have no direct or indirect material relationship with ICG. A “material relationship” is a relationship which could, in the opinion of the Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a director’s independent judgment.


The Board facilitates its exercise of independent judgment in carrying out its responsibilities by carefully examining issues and consulting with outside counsel and other advisors in appropriate circumstances. The Board requires management to provide complete and accurate information with respect to ICG's activities and to provide relevant information concerning the mineral exploration industry in order to identify and manage risks. The Board is responsible for monitoring ICG's senior officers, who in turn are responsible for the maintenance of internal controls and management information systems.

The independent members of the Board are Erik Sloane and Gary Baschuk. The non-independent members of the Board are Steven Sirbovan (President and CEO) and Jeff Swinoga (Chairman).

Participation of Directors in Other Reporting Issuers

The following table sets out, as at the date of the Information Circular, the current directors and nominees for director of ICG that are currently directors of other reporting issuers:

Name Name of Reporting Issuer Name of Exchange or Market
Steven Sirbovan None None
Jeff Swinoga Exploits Discovery Corp.
Radisson Mining Resources Inc.
Mountain Province Diamonds Inc. CSE
TSX Venture Exchange
Toronto Stock Exchange
Erik Sloane Global X Investments Canada Inc. Toronto Stock Exchange
Cboe Canada
Gary Baschuk None None

Orientation and Continuing Education

New directors participate in an orientation discussion with ICG management and incumbent directors regarding the role of the Board, the Audit Committee, and the nature and operations of ICG's business. Members of the Board are encouraged to communicate with management of ICG, external legal counsel and auditors, and other external consultants to educate themselves about ICG's business, the mining industry and applicable legal and regulatory developments.

Ethical Business Conduct

The Board views good corporate governance as an integral component to the success of ICG and to meet responsibilities to shareholders. However, the Board has not yet adopted a Code of Conduct.

The Board, through its meetings both formal and informal with management, encourages a culture of ethical business conduct and believes ICG's high caliber management team promotes a culture of ethical business conduct throughout ICG's operations and is expected to monitor the activities of ICG's employees, consultants and agents in that regard.

It is a requirement of applicable corporate law that directors and senior officers who have an interest in a transaction or agreement with ICG promptly disclose that interest at any meeting of the Board at which the transaction or agreement will be discussed and, in the case of directors, abstain from discussions and voting in respect to same if the interest is material. These requirements are also contained in ICG's Articles, which are made available to directors and senior officers of ICG.

F-44


F-45

Nomination of Directors

The Board considers its size each year when it considers the number of directors to recommend to shareholders for election at the annual meeting of shareholders, taking into account the number required to carry out the Board’s duties effectively and to maintain a diversity of views and experience.

The Board does not have a nominating committee at this time, and these functions are currently performed by the Board as a whole. However, if there is a change in the number of directors required by ICG, this practice may be reviewed.

Compensation

The compensation of directors and the CEO is determined by the Board as a whole. Such compensation is determined after consideration of various relevant factors, including the expected nature and quantity of duties and responsibilities, past performance, comparison with compensation paid by other issuers of comparable size and nature, and the availability of financial resources.

Board Committees

The Board does not have any standing committees other than the Audit Committee.

Audit Committee

The primary function of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board in fulfilling its financial oversight responsibilities with respect to the financial reporting process and the quality, transparency and integrity of the financial statements and other related public disclosures, and enforcing ICG’s systems of internal controls regarding finance and accounting and ICG’s auditing, accounting and financial reporting processes. Consistent with this function, the Audit Committee will encourage continuous improvement of, and should foster adherence to, ICG’s policies, procedures and practices at all levels. The Audit Committee meets at least quarterly.

See “Audit Committee” for details about its composition and function. The proposed Charter of the Audit Committee is attached as Exhibit “D” to this Appendix “F”.

Assessments

The Board monitors the adequacy of information given to directors, communication between the Board and management, and the strategic direction and processes of the Board and its committees.

No formal policy has been established to monitor the effectiveness of the directors, the Board and its committees. However, ICG believes that its corporate governance practices are appropriate and effective given ICG’s developmental stage.

Risk Factors

An investment in ICG Shares involves a significant degree of risk and should be considered speculative due to the nature of ICG’s business and the present stage of its development. In evaluating the proposed transaction, shareholders should carefully consider all of the information in this section, and, in particular, should evaluate the risk factors set out below. However, such risks may not be the only risks faced by ICG. Risks and uncertainties not presently known by ICG or which are presently considered immaterial may also adversely affect ICG’s business, properties, results of operations and/or condition (financial or otherwise).


Risks Related to the Business of ICG

Resource Exploration and Development is a Speculative Business

Resource exploration and development is a speculative business and involves a high degree of risk, including, among other things, unprofitable efforts resulting not only from the failure to discover mineral deposits but from finding mineral deposits which, though present, are insufficient in size to return a profit from production. The marketability of natural resources that may be acquired or discovered by ICG will be affected by numerous factors beyond its control. These factors include market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of natural resource markets, government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land use, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but the combination of these factors may result in ICG not receiving an adequate return on invested capital.

Substantial expenditures are required to establish ore reserves through drilling and metallurgical and other testing techniques, determine metal content and metallurgical recovery processes to extract metal from the ore, and construct, renovate or expand mining and processing facilities. No assurance can be given that any level of recovery of ore reserves will be realized or that any identified mineral deposit, even it is established to contain an estimated resource, will ever qualify as a commercial mineable ore body which can be legally and economically exploited. The great majority of exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially mineable deposits of ore.

Ability to Raise Funding to Continue Exploration and other Activities

ICG has no revenues from operations and has recorded losses since inception. ICG expects to incur operating losses in future periods due to continuing expenses associated with general and administrative costs, costs of seeking new business opportunities, and advancing its projects.

ICG has finite financial resources and its ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon its ability to:

  • generate revenues in excess of expenditures;
  • reduce costs in the event revenues are insufficient; and
  • secure near and long-term financing.

ICG may rely on a combination of equity and debt financing to meet its capital requirements. Additional funds raised by ICG through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities will cause current ICG shareholders to experience dilution. Such securities may grant rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the ICG shareholders.

ICG does not have any contractual restrictions on its ability to incur debt and accordingly, ICG could incur significant amounts of indebtedness to finance its operations. Any such indebtedness could contain covenants, which could restrict ICG's operations.

ICG may need to pursue alternative ways to finance its future operations and seeks new business opportunities. There are no assurances or guarantees that any financing alternative will be successful. There is no certainty that additional financing either through traditional equity and debt financing arrangements or an alternative transaction, or any combination thereof, will be available at all or on acceptable terms.

Development of Properties

ICG is an exploration and development company and all of its properties and property interests are in the exploration stage. ICG has not defined or delineated any mineral resources or mineral reserves on any of its properties.

Fluctuation of Metal Prices

Even if commercial quantities of mineral deposits are discovered by ICG, there is no guarantee that a profitable market will exist for the sale of the metals produced. Factors beyond the control of ICG may affect the marketability of any

F-46


substances discovered. The prices of various metals have experienced significant movement over short periods of time and are affected by numerous factors beyond the control of ICG, including international economic and political trends, expectations of inflation, currency exchange fluctuations, interest rates and global or regional consumption patterns, speculative activities and increased production due to improved mining and production methods. The supply of and demand for metals are affected by various factors, including political events, economic conditions and production costs in major producing regions. There can be no assurance that the price of any commodities will be such that any of the properties in which ICG has, or has the right to acquire, an interest may be mined at a profit.

Increased Costs

Management anticipates that costs at ICG’s projects will frequently be subject to variation from one year to the next due to a number of factors, such as the results of ongoing exploration activities (positive or negative), changes in the nature of mineralization encountered, and revisions to exploration programs, if any, in response to the foregoing. Increases in the prices of such commodities or a scarcity of consultants or drilling contractors could render the costs of exploration programs to increase significantly over those budgeted. A material increase in costs for any significant exploration programs could have a significant effect on ICG’s operating funds and ability to start, or continue its planned exploration programs.

Reclamation

There is a risk that monies allotted for land reclamation may not be sufficient to cover all risks, due to changes in the nature of the waste rock or tailings and/or revisions to government regulations. Therefore, additional funds, or reclamation bonds or other forms of financial assurance may be required over the tenure of any mineral project of ICG to cover potential risks. These additional costs may have a material adverse effect on ICG’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Mining Industry is Intensely Competitive

ICG’s business of the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties is intensely competitive. Increased competition could adversely affect ICG’s ability to attract necessary capital funding or acquire suitable producing properties or prospects for mineral exploration in the future.

Permits and Licenses

The operations of ICG will require licenses and permits from various governmental authorities. There can be no assurance that ICG will be able to obtain all necessary licenses and permits that may be required to carry out exploration, development and mining operations at its projects, on reasonable terms or at all. Delays or a failure to obtain such licenses and permits or a failure to comply with the terms of any such licenses and permits that ICG does obtain, could have a material adverse effect on ICG.

Government Regulation

Any exploration, development or mining operations carried on by ICG, will be subject to government legislation, policies and controls relating to prospecting, development, production, environmental protection, mining taxes and labour standards. In addition, the profitability of any mining prospect is affected by the market for precious and/or base metals which is influenced by many factors including changing production costs, the supply and demand for metals, the rate of inflation, the inventory of metal producing corporations, the political environment and changes in international investment patterns.

Environmental Restrictions

The activities of ICG are subject to environmental regulations promulgated by government agencies in different countries from time to time. Environmental legislation generally provides for restrictions and prohibitions on spills, releases or emissions into the air, discharges into water, management of waste, management of hazardous substances, protection of natural resources, antiquities and endangered species and reclamation of lands disturbed by mining

F-47


operations. Certain types of operations require the submission and approval of environmental impact assessments. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which means stricter standards, and enforcement, fines and penalties for non-compliance are more stringent. Environmental assessments of proposed projects carry a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and directors, officers and employees. The cost of compliance with changes in governmental regulations has a potential to reduce the profitability of operations.

Public Health Crises

ICG’s business, operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected by the outbreak of epidemics or pandemics or other health crises. To date, there have been a large number of temporary business closures, quarantines and a general reduction in consumer activity in a number of countries including Canada, the United States, Europe and Asia. The outbreak has caused companies and various international jurisdictions to impose travel, gathering and other public health restrictions.

Such public health crises can result in volatility and disruptions in the supply and demand for metals and minerals, global supply chains and financial markets, as well as declining trade and market sentiment and reduced mobility of people, all of which could affect commodity prices, interest rates, credit ratings, credit risk and inflation. The risks to ICG of such public health crises also include risks to employee health and safety, a slowdown or temporary suspension of operations in geographic locations impacted by an outbreak, increased labour and fuel costs, regulatory changes, political or economic instabilities or civil unrest. Any of these could affect ICG’s ability to advance exploration and development with such risks to include challenges in recruiting and retaining staff and personnel, restricted access for employees and contractors to the Projects, equipment and materials not being delivered to site on schedule or at all, and further inefficiencies required to be put in place to health and safety resulting in less productivity.

Military Conflict in Ukraine or Otherwise

The military conflict in Ukraine, or in other jurisdictions globally, could lead to heightened volatility in the global financial markets, increased inflation, and turbulence in mining markets. More recently, in response to Russian military actions in Ukraine, several countries (including Canada, the United States and certain allies) have imposed economic sanctions and export control measures, and may impose additional sanctions or export control measures in the future, which have and could in the future result in, among other things, severe or complete restrictions on exports and other commerce and business dealings involving Russia, certain regions of Ukraine, and/or particular entities and individuals. While ICG does not have any direct exposure or connection to Russia or Ukraine, as the military conflict is a rapidly developing situation, it is uncertain as to how such events and any related economic sanctions could impact the global economy. Any negative developments in respect thereof could have an adverse effect on ICG’s business, operations, financial condition, and the value of ICG’s securities.

Title Matters

Although ICG has taken steps to verify the title to the mineral properties in which it has or has a right to acquire an interest in accordance with industry standards for the current stage of exploration of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee title (whether of ICG or of any underlying vendor(s) from whom ICG may be acquiring its interest). Title to mineral properties may be subject to unregistered prior agreements or transfers and may also be affected by undetected defects or the rights of indigenous peoples. ICG has investigated title to all of its mineral properties and, to the best of its knowledge, title to all of its properties for which titles have been issued are in good standing.

Indigenous and First Nations Rights

ICG’s mineral exploration and development activities may be affected by the rights of Indigenous Peoples in the jurisdictions where it operates. In the United States, certain federal and state permitting processes require consultation with Indigenous or Tribal Nations whose traditional territories may overlap with mineral projects. In Canada, governments may be required to consult and, where appropriate, accommodate Indigenous Peoples in connection with the granting of mineral rights or the issuance or amendment of project authorizations. These consultation obligations and related legal frameworks continue to evolve.

F-48


Legislative developments may result in enhanced consultation requirements or additional accommodations, including financial commitments, employment and training opportunities, or other terms under impact and benefit agreements. Such requirements may affect the timing and cost of obtaining mineral titles, permits, or approvals, and could delay or increase the cost of exploration and development activities.

Unforeseen claims, grievances, or opposition by Indigenous Peoples could impact ICG’s existing or planned operations, project timelines, or future acquisitions. The need to address Indigenous rights considerations may increase operating costs and could affect ICG’s ability to advance, expand, or dispose of its mineral projects.

Exploration and Mining Risks

Fires, power outages, labour disruptions, flooding, explosions, cave-ins, landslides and the inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labour are other risks involved in the operation of mines and the conduct of exploration programs. Substantial expenditures are required to establish reserves through drilling, to develop metallurgical processes, to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for mining. Although substantial benefits may be derived from the discovery of a major mineralized deposit, no assurance can be given that minerals will be discovered in sufficient quantities to justify commercial operations or that funds required for development can be obtained on a timely basis. The economics of developing mineral properties is affected by many factors including the cost of operations, variations of the grade of ore mined, fluctuations in the price of minerals produced, costs of processing equipment and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. In addition, the grade of mineralization ultimately mined may differ from that indicated by drilling results and such differences could be material. Short term factors, such as the need for orderly development of ore bodies or the processing of new or different grades, may have an adverse effect on mining operations and on the results of operations. There can be no assurance that minerals recovered in small scale laboratory tests will be duplicated in large scale tests under on-site conditions or in production scale operations. Material changes in geological resources, grades, stripping ratios or recovery rates may affect the economic viability of projects.

Regulatory Requirements

The activities of ICG are subject to extensive regulations governing various matters, including environmental protection, management and use of toxic substances and explosives, management of natural resources, exploration, development of mines, production and post-closure reclamation, exports, price controls, taxation, regulations concerning business dealings with indigenous peoples, labour standards on occupational health and safety, including mine safety, and historic and cultural preservation. Failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations may result in civil or criminal fines or penalties, enforcement actions thereunder, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment, or remedial actions, any of which could result in ICG incurring significant expenditures. ICG may also be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of a breach of such laws, regulations or permitting requirements. It is also possible that future laws and regulations, or more stringent enforcement of current laws and regulations by governmental authorities, could cause additional expense, capital expenditures, restrictions on or suspension of ICG’s operations and delays in the exploration and development of ICG’s properties.

Influence of Third Parties

The mineral properties in which ICG holds an interest, or the exploration equipment and road or other means of access which ICG intends to utilize in carrying out its work programs or general business mandates, may be subject to interests or claims by third party individuals, groups or companies. In the event that such third parties assert any claims, ICG’s work programs may be delayed even if such claims are not meritorious. Such claims may result in significant financial loss and loss of opportunity for ICG.

F-49


F-50

No Assurance of Profitability

ICG has no history of earnings and, due to the nature of its business there can be no assurance that ICG will ever be profitable. ICG has not paid dividends on its shares since incorporation and does not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. The only present source of funds available to ICG is from the sale of its shares or, possibly, from the sale or optioning of a portion of its interest in its mineral properties. Even if the results of exploration are encouraging, ICG may not have sufficient funds to conduct the further exploration that may be necessary to determine whether or not a commercially mineable deposit exists. While ICG may generate additional working capital through further equity offerings or through the sale or possible syndication of its properties, there can be no assurance that any such funds will be available on favorable terms, or at all. At present, it is impossible to determine what amounts of additional funds, if any, may be required. Failure to raise such additional capital could put the continued viability of ICG at risk.

Uninsured or Uninsurable Risks

Exploration, development and mining operations involve various hazards, including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, metallurgical and other processing problems, unusual or unexpected rock formations, structural cave-ins or slides, flooding, fires, metal losses and periodic interruptions due to inclement or hazardous weather conditions. These risks could result in damage to or destruction of mineral properties, facilities or other property, personal injury, environmental damage, delays in operations, increased cost of operations, monetary losses and possible legal liability. ICG may not be able to obtain insurance to cover these risks at economically feasible premiums or at all. ICG may elect not to insure where premium costs are disproportionate to ICG’s perception of the relevant risks. The payment of such insurance premiums and of such liabilities would reduce the funds available for exploration and production activities.

Potential Conflicts of Interest

The directors and officers of ICG may serve as directors and/or officers for other public and private companies, including companies in which ICG has invested in, and may devote a portion of their time to manage other business interests. This may result in certain conflicts of interest. To the extent that such other companies may participate in ventures in which ICG is also participating, and to the extent that such companies may receive funds from ICG, such directors and officers of ICG may have a conflict of interest in negotiating and reaching an agreement with respect to the extent of each company’s participation. The Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), which governs ICG, requires the directors and officers to act honestly, in good faith, and in the best interests of ICG and its shareholders. However, in conflict of interest situations, directors and officers of ICG may owe the same duty to another company and will need to balance the competing obligations and liabilities of their actions. There is no assurance that the needs of ICG will receive priority in all cases. From time to time, several companies may participate together in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural resource properties, thereby allowing these companies to: (i) participate in larger programs; (ii) acquire an interest in a greater number of programs; and (iii) reduce their financial exposure to any one program. A particular company may assign, at its cost, all or a portion of its interests in a particular program to another affiliated company due to the financial position of ICG making the assignment. In determining whether or not ICG will participate in a particular program and the interest therein to be acquired by it, it is expected that the directors and officers of ICG will primarily consider the degree of risk to which ICG may be exposed and its financial position at that time.

Key Executives and Outside Consultants

ICG is dependent upon the services of key executives, including the directors of ICG, and will be dependent on a small number of highly skilled and experienced executives and personnel. Due to the relatively small size of ICG, the loss of these persons or the inability of ICG to attract and retain additional highly skilled employees may adversely affect its business and future operations.

ICG has also relied upon outside consultants, geologists, engineers and others and intends to rely on these parties for their exploration and development expertise. Substantial expenditures are required to construct mines, to establish mineral resources and reserves estimates through drilling, to carry out environmental and social impact assessments, to develop metallurgical processes and to develop the development, exploration and plant infrastructure at any


particular site. If such parties' work is deficient or negligent or is not completed in a timely manner, it could have a material adverse effect on ICG's business, financial condition and results of operations.

Joint ventures

ICG may enter into joint venture arrangements with regard to future exploration, development and production properties. There is a risk any future joint venture partner does not meet its obligations and ICG may therefore suffer additional costs or other losses. It is also possible that the interests of ICG or future joint venture partners are not aligned resulting in project delays or additional costs and losses. ICG may have minority interests in the companies, partnerships and ventures in which it invests and may be unable to exercise control over the operations of such companies.

Infrastructure

Mining, processing, development and exploration activities depend, to one degree or another, on adequate infrastructure. Reliable roads, bridges, power sources and water supply are important determinants which affect capital and operating costs. Unusual or infrequent weather phenomena, terrorism, sabotage, government or other interference in the maintenance or provision of such infrastructure could adversely affect ICG's operations, financial condition and results of operations.

Accounting Policies and Internal Controls

ICG prepares its financial reports in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. In preparation of its financial reports, management may need to rely upon assumptions, make estimates or use their best judgment in determining the financial condition of ICG. Significant accounting policies are described in more detail in ICG's audited financial statements. In order to have a reasonable level of assurance that financial transactions are properly authorized, assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use, and transactions are properly recorded and reported, ICG has implemented and continues to analyze its internal control systems for financial reporting, as further explained in its audited financial statements. Although ICG believes its financial reporting and financial statements are prepared with reasonable safeguards to ensure reliability, ICG cannot provide absolute assurance in this regard.

Negative Operating Cash Flow

ICG has incurred losses since inception and currently experiences negative operating cash flow, a trend that is expected to continue for the foreseeable future. Although ICG aims to advance its mineral projects and ultimately generate revenues, there is no assurance that it will ever achieve profitability. As an exploration-stage company with no material revenues to date, ICG must rely on its cash reserves and will likely require additional financing – through equity, debt or other means – to fund ongoing operations and planned exploration activities. Many of ICG's expenditures are fixed or committed in nature, including costs associated with exploration programs, property maintenance, technical consultants, and corporate overhead.

ICG's ability to generate future revenues and move toward profitability depends on the successful exploration and development of its mineral properties, the availability of capital, favourable commodity prices, and the receipt of required regulatory approvals. There can be no assurance that ICG will ever achieve or sustain profitability, that additional financing will be available when needed, or that such financing will be available on acceptable terms. If ICG continues to incur losses for an extended period or is unable to secure adequate financing, it may be unable to continue its business or advance its projects.

Limited Operating History

ICG is subject to many of the risks common to early-stage enterprises, including under-capitalization, cash shortages, limitations with respect to personnel, financial, and other resources and lack of revenues. There is no assurance that ICG will be successful in achieving a return on shareholders' investment and the likelihood of success must be considered in light of the early stage of operations.

F-52

Reputation Risk

Damage to ICG’s reputation can be the result of the actual or perceived occurrence of any number of events, and could include any negative publicity, whether true or not. The increased usage of social media and other web-based tools used to generate, publish and discuss user-generated content and to connect with other users has made it increasingly easier for individuals and groups to communicate and share opinions and views regarding ICG and its activities, whether true or not. Although ICG believes that it operates in a manner that is respectful to all stakeholders and that it takes care in protecting its image and reputation, ICG does not ultimately have direct control over how it is perceived by others. Reputation loss may result in decreased investor confidence, increased challenges in developing and maintaining community relations and an impediment to ICG’s overall ability to advance its projects, thereby having a material adverse impact on financial performance, financial condition, cash flows and growth prospects.

Liability for Actions of Employees, Contractors and Consultants

ICG could be liable for fraudulent or illegal activity by its employees, contractors and consultants resulting in significant financial losses to claims against ICG.

ICG is exposed to the risk that its employees, independent contractors and consultants may engage in fraudulent or other illegal activity. Misconduct by these parties could include intentional, reckless and/or negligent conduct or disclosure of unauthorized activities to ICG that violates: (i) government regulations; (ii) manufacturing standards; (iii) fraud and abuse laws and regulations; or (iv) laws that require the true, complete and accurate reporting of financial information or data. It is not always possible for ICG to identify and deter misconduct by its employees and other third parties, and the precautions taken by ICG to detect and prevent this activity may not be effective in controlling unknown or unmanaged risks or losses or in protecting ICG from governmental investigations or other actions or lawsuits stemming from a failure to be in compliance with such laws or regulations. If any such actions are instituted against ICG, and it is not successful in defending itself or asserting its rights, those actions could have a significant impact on its business, including the imposition of civil, criminal and administrative penalties, damages, monetary fines, contractual damages, reputational harm, diminished profits and future earnings, the curtailment of ICG's operations or asset seizures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on ICG's business, financial condition and results of operations.

Litigation

Defense and settlement costs of legal claims can be substantial, even with respect to claims that have no merit. Like most companies, ICG is subject to the threat of litigation and may be involved in disputes with other parties in the future which may result in litigation or other proceedings. The results of litigation or any other proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. If ICG is unable to resolve these disputes favourably, it could have a material adverse effect on ICG’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Information Systems

Targeted attacks on ICG’s systems (or on systems of third parties that ICG relies on), failure or non-availability of a key information technology (“IT”) systems or a breach of security measures designed to protect ICG’s IT systems could result in disruptions to ICG’s operations, extensive personal injury, property damage or financial or reputational risks. ICG has engaged IT consultants to implement and test system controls and disaster recovery infrastructure for certain IT systems. As the threat landscape is ever-changing, ICG must make continuous mitigation efforts, including: risk prioritized controls to protect against known and emerging threats; tools to provide automate monitoring and alerting and backup and recovery systems to restore systems and return to normal operations.

Risks Related to the Common Shares

Market for Securities and Volatility of Share Price

The ICG Shares do not currently trade on any exchange or stock market. Securities of small-cap companies have experienced substantial volatility in the past, often based on factors unrelated to the companies’ financial performance


or prospects. These factors include macroeconomic developments in North America and globally and market perceptions of the attractiveness of particular industries. Factors unrelated to ICG’s performance that may affect the price of the ICG Shares include the following: other developments that affect the breadth of the public market for the ICG Shares; the release or expiration of lock-up or other transfer restrictions on the ICG Shares; the attractiveness of alternative investments; the extent of analytical coverage available to investors concerning ICG’s business may be limited if investment banks with research capabilities do not follow ICG; lessening in trading volume and general market interest in the ICG Shares may affect an investor’s ability to trade significant numbers of ICG Shares; the size of ICG’s public float may limit the ability of some institutions to invest in ICG Shares; and a substantial decline in the price of the ICG Shares that persists for a significant period of time could cause the ICG Shares, if listed on an exchange, to be delisted from such exchange, further reducing market liquidity. As a result of any of these factors, the market price of the ICG Shares at any given point in time may not accurately reflect ICG’s long-term value and may be volatile in the future, which may result in losses to investors. Securities class action litigation often has been brought against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. We may in the future be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and damages and divert management’s attention and resources. The fact that no market currently exists for the ICG Shares may affect the pricing of the ICG Shares in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices and the liquidity of the ICG Shares.

ICG will apply to list the ICG Shares on the CSE. In the event of such listing, external factors outside of our control, such as announcements of quarterly variations in operating results, revenues and costs, and sentiments toward stocks, may have a significant impact on the market price of the ICG Shares. Global stock markets, including the CSE, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations from time to time. There can be no assurance that an active or liquid market will develop or be sustained for the ICG Shares.

No Established Market

There is currently no market through which ICG’s securities may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell the ICG Shares acquired pursuant to the Arrangement. An active public market for the ICG Shares might not develop or be sustained after the Arrangement. Even if a market develops, there is no assurance that the price of the ICG Shares acquired pursuant to the Arrangement, which has been determined by negotiations between ICG and APM, will reflect the prevailing market price of the ICG Shares following the Arrangement. If an active public market for the ICG Shares does not develop, the liquidity of a shareholder’s investment may be limited, and the ICG Share price may decline.

Lack of Active Market

There can be no assurance that an active market for the ICG Shares will continue and any increased demand to buy or sell the ICG Shares can create volatility in price and volume.

Future Sales of Common Shares by Existing Shareholders

Sales of a large number of ICG Shares in the public markets, or the potential for such sales, could decrease the trading price of the ICG Shares and could impair ICG’s ability to raise capital through future sales of ICG Shares. ICG has previously completed private placements at prices per share which may be, from time to time, lower than the market price of the ICG Shares. Accordingly, a significant number of ICG’s shareholders at any given time may have an investment profit in the ICG Shares that they may seek to liquidate.

Dividends

ICG has not paid dividends in the past and does not anticipate paying dividends in the near future. ICG intends to retain earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of ICG’s business and, where appropriate, retire debt. The payment of future cash dividends, if any, will be reviewed periodically by the Board and will depend upon, among other things, conditions then existing including earnings, financial condition and capital requirements, restrictions in financing agreements, business opportunities and conditions and other factors.

F-53


F-54

Dilution

Future sales or issuances of equity securities could decrease the value of the ICG Shares, dilute shareholders' voting power and reduce future potential earnings per ICG Share. ICG intends to sell additional equity securities in subsequent offerings (including through the sale of securities convertible into ICG Shares) and may issue additional equity securities to finance our operations, development, exploration, acquisitions or other projects. ICG cannot predict the size of future sales and issuances of equity securities or the effect, if any, that future sales and issuances of equity securities will have on the market price of the ICG Shares. Sales or issuances of a substantial number of equity securities, or the perception that such sales could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices for the ICG Shares. With any additional sale or issuance of equity securities, investors will suffer dilution of their voting power and may experience dilution in our earnings per ICG Share.

As a result of any of these factors, the market price of the ICG Shares at any given point in time may not accurately reflect the long-term value of ICG. Securities class-action litigation often has been brought against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. ICG may in the future be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and damages and divert management's attention and resources.

Additional Financing

ICG will require equity and/or debt financing to support ongoing operations, to undertake capital expenditures or to undertake acquisitions or other business combination transactions. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to ICG when needed or on terms which are acceptable. ICG's inability to raise financing to fund ongoing operations, capital expenditures or acquisitions could limit its growth and may have a material adverse effect upon ICG's business, results of operations, financial condition or prospects.

If additional funds are raised through further issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, existing shareholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities issued could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of ICG Shares. Any debt financing secured in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for ICG to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions.

Risks Related to the Arrangement

There can be no certainty that all conditions precedent to the Arrangement with APM will be satisfied

The completion of the Arrangement is subject to a number of conditions precedent, certain of which are outside the control of ICG, including receipt of the approval of the Final Order from the Court approving the Arrangement, holders of no more than 5% of the outstanding APM Shares having exercised Dissent Rights and the receipt of all required material consents, waivers, permits, orders and approvals. There can be no certainty, nor can ICG provide any assurance, if and when these conditions will be satisfied or waived. These conditions also include approval of the Arrangement by APM shareholders at the Meeting. If, for any reason, the conditions to the Arrangement are not satisfied or waived and the Arrangement is not completed, the market price of the ICG Shares may be adversely affected and the announcement of the Arrangement and the dedication of substantial resources of ICG to the completion thereof could have a negative impact on ICG's business relationships and could have a material adverse effect on the current and future operations, financial condition and prospects of ICG. If the Arrangement is not completed and the Board decides to seek another merger or arrangement, there can be no assurance that it will be able to find a party willing to pay an equivalent or more attractive price than the total consideration payable pursuant to the Arrangement.

The Arrangement Agreement may be terminated in certain circumstances, including in the event of a Material Adverse Change with respect to ICG.

Each of APM and ICG has the right to terminate the Arrangement Agreement and the Arrangement in certain circumstances. Accordingly, there is no certainty, nor can ICG provide any assurance, that the Arrangement


Agreement will not be terminated by either APM or ICG before the completion of the Arrangement. For example, APM has the right, in certain circumstances, to terminate the Arrangement Agreement if changes occur that, in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect with respect to ICG. Although a Material Adverse Effect excludes certain events that are beyond the control of ICG, there is no assurance that a Material Adverse Effect with respect to ICG will not occur before the completion of the Arrangement, in which case ICG could elect to terminate the Arrangement Agreement and the Arrangement would not proceed.

While the Arrangement is pending, ICG is restricted from taking certain actions

The Arrangement Agreement restricts ICG from taking specified actions until the Arrangement is completed without the consent of APM. These restrictions may prevent ICG from pursuing attractive business opportunities that may arise prior to the completion of the Arrangement.

The issuance of a significant number of ICG Shares could adversely affect the market price of ICG Shares

If the Arrangement is completed, a significant number of additional ICG Shares will be issued and will become available for trading in the public market. The increase in the number of ICG Shares may lead to sales of such shares or the perception that such sales may occur, either of which may adversely affect the market for, and the market price of, ICG Shares.

EXHIBIT A
ICG FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND MD&A

[See attached]


DAVIDSON & COMPANY LLP
Chartered Professional Accountants

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Directors of
ICG Silver & Gold Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of ICG Silver & Gold Ltd. (the “Company”), which comprise the statement of financial position as at October 31, 2025, and the statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in equity, and cash flows for the period from incorporation on August 19, 2025 to October 31, 2025, and notes to the financial statements, including material accounting policy information.

In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at October 31, 2025, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the period from incorporation on August 19, 2025 to October 31, 2025, in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audit is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 1 of the financial statements, which indicates that the Company has an accumulated deficit as at October 31, 2025 and a loss and negative cash flows from operations for the period ended October 31, 2025. As stated in Note 1, these events and conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Except for the matter described in the Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern section, we have determined that there are no other key audit matters to communicate in our auditor’s report.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information obtained at the date of this auditor’s report includes Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

We obtained Management’s Discussion and Analysis prior to the date of this auditor’s report. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current year and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Kyle McElwee.

Notes to Financial Statements
For the Period from Incorporation (August 19, 2025) to October 31, 2025
(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

ICG Silver & Gold Ltd. (the "Company") was incorporated on August 19, 2025 under the laws of British Columbia. The Company has not commenced commercial operations and has no significant assets. The activities of the Company are initially limited to the efforts to identify and evaluate the acquisition of assets or businesses with exploration and evaluation ("E&E") opportunity. The head office and the records and registered office is located at 1055 West Georgia Street, 1500 Royal Centre, PO Box 11117, Vancouver, BC, V6E 4N7.

Since incorporation, the Company has had no active business operations. The Company's principal business objective will be to identify and evaluate assets or businesses with a view to potential acquisition. The Company has an accumulated deficit as at October 31, 2025 and a loss and negative cash flows from operations for the period ended October 31, 2025. The Company's ability to continue its operations is dependent upon obtaining additional financing sufficient to cover its operating costs. Although management has been successful in raising capital in the past, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that such financing will be obtained on terms of advantageous to the Company. These conditions indicate the existence of material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments which would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in the accompanying financial statements.

These financial statements were authorized by the Board of Directors on January 12, 2026.

2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board ("IASB").

3. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments classified as financial instruments at fair value through profit and loss, which are stated at their fair value. The financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is also the Company's functional currency. In addition, these financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with IFRS Accounting Standards requires management to make certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment of complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 4.

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

4. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION

a) Income taxes

Income tax is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or loss or directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in other comprehensive income or loss or equity.

Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at year end, adjusted for amendments to tax payable with regards to previous years.

Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period applicable to the period of expected realization or settlement.

A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority and the group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

b) Share capital

Common shares are classified as shareholders' equity. Transaction costs directly attributable to the issue of common shares and share purchase options are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

The proceeds from the issue of units is allocated between common shares and common share purchase warrants based on the residual value method. Under this method, the proceeds are allocated to share capital based on the fair value of the common shares and any residual value is allocated to common share purchase warrants.

c) Loss per share

The Company presents basic and diluted loss per share data for its common shares, calculated by dividing the loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted loss per share does not adjust the loss attributable to common shareholders or the weighted average number of common shares outstanding when the effect is anti-dilutive.

4. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (continued)

d) Financial instruments

Recognition

The Company recognizes financial assets and financial liabilities on the date the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

Classification

The Company classifies its financial assets and financial liabilities in the following measurement categories: i) those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income or through profit or loss), and ii) those to be measured at amortized costs. The classification of financial assets depends on the business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. Financial liabilities are classified as those to be measured at amortized cost unless they are designated as those to be measured subsequently at fair value through profit or loss (irrevocable election at the time of recognition). For assets and liabilities measured at fair value, gains and losses are either recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive income.

The Company reclassifies financial assets when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes. Financial liabilities are not reclassified.

The Company has implemented the following classifications:
- Cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are classified as amortized cost and carried on the statements of financial position at amortized cost.

Measurement

All financial instruments are required to be measured at fair value on initial recognition, plus, in case of a financial asset or financial liability not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial asset or financial liability. Transaction costs of financial assets and financial liabilities with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are solely payment of principal and interest.

Financial assets that are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments or principal and interest on the principal outstanding are generally measured at amortized cost at the end of the subsequent accounting periods. All other financial assets including equity investments are measured at their fair values at the end of subsequent accounting periods, with any changes taken through profit and loss or other comprehensive income (irrevocable election at the time of recognition).

Impairment

The Company assesses all information available, including on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at amortized cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition based on all information available, and reasonable and supportive forward looking information.

4. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (continued)

e) Exploration and evaluation expenditures

The Company capitalizes the cost of acquiring exploration and evaluation assets. Expenses related to exploration of exploration and evaluation assets are expensed through the statement of loss and comprehensive loss. Such costs, include, but are not limited to, geological and geophysical studies, exploratory drilling and sampling.

f) Impairment of E&E assets

The Company's E&E assets are evaluated every reporting period to determine whether there are any indications of impairment. If any such indication exists, which is often judgmental, a formal estimate of recoverable amount is performed, and an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating group of assets is measured at the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. The evaluation of asset carrying values for indications of impairment includes consideration of both external and internal sources of information, including such factors as market and economic conditions, metal prices, future plans for the Company's mineral properties and mineral resources and/or reserve estimates.

Critical accounting estimates and judgments

The Company makes estimates and assumptions about the future that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions.

The effect of a change in accounting estimate is recognized prospectively by including it in comprehensive income in the period of the change, if the change affects that period only, or in the period of the change and future periods, if the change affects both.

Information about critical accounting estimates and judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recognized in the financial statements are discussed below:

Judgments

Going concern

The Company's management has made an assessment of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and is satisfied that the Company has the resources to continue in business for the foreseeable future.

Notes to Financial Statements
For the Period from Incorporation (August 19, 2025) to October 31, 2025
(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

4. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (continued)

Deferred tax assets and liabilities

The estimation of income taxes includes evaluating the recoverability of deferred tax assets based on an assessment of the Company's ability to utilize the underlying future tax deductions against future taxable income prior to expiry of those deductions. Management assesses whether it is probable that some or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income, which in turn is dependent upon the identification of E&E acquisition targets and the further successful discovery, extraction, development and commercialization of mineral reserves. To the extent that management's assessment of the Company's ability to utilize future tax deductions changes, the Company would be required to recognize more or fewer deferred tax assets, and future income tax provisions or recoveries could be affected.

5. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS NOT YET ADOPTED

IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which will replace IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements aims to improve how companies communicate in their financial statements, with a focus on information about financial performance in the statement of profit or loss, in particular additional defined subtotals, disclosures about management-defined performance measures and new principles for aggregation and disaggregation of information. IFRS 18 is accompanied by limited amendments to the requirements in IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows. IFRS 18 is effective from January 1, 2027. Companies are permitted to apply IFRS 18 before that date.

The Company has not yet determined the impact of the accounting policy on its financial statements.

6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.

Key management personnel include persons having the authority and responsibility for planning, directing, and controlling the activities of the Company as a whole. The Company has identified its directors and certain senior officers as its key management personnel and the compensation costs for key management personnel and companies related to them were recorded at their exchange amounts as agreed upon by transacting parties.

For the period ended October 31, 2025 the following amounts were incurred in respect of key management personnel:

i) To a company controlled by the Company's CFO: $4,520, of which $850 is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, in addition to $4,500 of share-based compensation included in professional fees and $9,040 included in prepaid expenses.

ii) To a company controlled by the Company's VP Exploration: $3,900, which is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

7. SHARE CAPITAL

a) Authorized

Unlimited number of common shares without par value.

b) Issued and outstanding

As at October 31, 2025, there were 8,250,000 common shares issued and outstanding.

On September 24, 2025, the Company issued 2,000,000 common shares for cash proceeds of $20,000.

On October 10, 2025, the Company issued 6,100,000 common shares for cash proceeds of $183,000, on which the Company incurred issue costs of $11,638, and 150,000 common shares being recorded as professional fees valued at $4,500.

8. MANAGEMENT OF CAPITAL

Capital is composed of the Company's shareholders' equity and any debt that it may issue. As at October 31, 2025, the Company's shareholders' equity was $151,111. The Company's objectives when managing capital are to maintain financial viability and to protect its ability to meet its ongoing liabilities, to continue as a going concern, to maintain creditworthiness, and to maximize returns for shareholders over the long term. Protecting the ability to pay current and future liabilities includes maintaining capital above minimum regulatory levels, current financial strength rating requirements, and internally determined capital guidelines and calculated risk management levels.

The Company's current capital was received from the issuance of common shares. The net proceeds raised to date will only be sufficient to identify and evaluate a limited number of assets and businesses for the purpose of identifying and completing a transaction.

The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

There were no changes in the Company's approach to management of capital during the period ended October 31, 2025.

9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks. The Board of Directors approves and monitors the risk management processes. The type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is provided as follows:

Fair Value Measurements

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

  • Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
  • Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly, and
  • Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market date.

Notes to Financial Statements
For the Period from Incorporation (August 19, 2025) to October 31, 2025
(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities classified at amortized cost. The carrying value of the Company's cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to the short-term to maturity.

Financial risk management

  • Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to its liquid financial assets including cash. The Company limits the exposure to credit risk by only investing its cash with high-credit quality financial institutions. Management believes that the credit risk related to its cash is negligible.

  • Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company manages liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure and financial leverage as described in Note 8.

The Company monitors its ability to meet its short-term administrative expenditures by raising additional funds through share issuance when required. The Company does not have investments in any asset backed deposits.

  • Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and equity prices. The Company does not currently hold and does not expect to hold interest-bearing financial instruments other than cash, assets or liabilities denominated in a foreign currency, and marketable securities or other financial instruments subject to fluctuations in equity prices, it currently does not have and is not expected to have exposure to these market risks.

  • Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk to the extent that the cash maintained at the financial institutions is subject to a floating rate of interest. The interest rate risk on cash is not considered significant.

  • Currency Risk

The Company is exposed to currency risk to the extent that monetary assets and liabilities held by the Company are not denominated in Canadian dollars. The Company is not exposed to significant currency risk. The Company has not entered into any foreign currency contracts to mitigate this risk.

Description of Business

Incorporated on August 19, 2025, under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada, with the name 1553408 B.C. Ltd. On August 26, 2025, the Company changed its name to ICG Resources Ltd., further, on November 24, 2025, the Company changed its name to ICG Silver & Gold Ltd. to better reflect its business plans and operating focus.

The Company has not commenced commercial operations and has no significant assets. The activities of the Company are initially limited to the efforts to identify and evaluate the acquisition of assets or businesses with exploration and evaluation ("E&E") opportunity.

Since incorporation, the Company has had no active business operations. The Company's principal business objective will be to identify and evaluate assets or businesses with a view to potential acquisition.


On December 7, 2025, the Company and American Pacific Mining Corp. (“APM”) executed a Share Exchange Agreement (“SEA”), pursuant to which the Company will acquire the shares of APM’s wholly-owned subsidiaries American Pacific Mining (US) Inc. (“APMUS”) and Clearview Gold Inc. (“CGI”) in exchange for 11,500,000 common shares of the Company, of which 7,500,000 common shares will be distributed to APM shareholders, with APM retaining 4,000,000 common shares (the “Retained Shares”). CGI is the registered owner of the Danny Boy Project and APMUS is the registered owner of the Tuscarora Project (collectively the “Projects”) located northwest of Elko, Nevada (the “Tuscarora District”).

The Retained Shares will be subject to a Lock-up Agreement for 36 months, commencing after the Company has attained a listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE” or the “Exchange”), APM will require the Company’s approval to sell in excess of 5% of the Retained Shares in any five trading day period. Further, APM shall not sell more than 15% of the Retained Consideration Shares in any single 30 day calendar month period.

Additionally, the Company will pay to APM $5 million U.S. dollars upon the commencement of commercial production at either of the Projects.

Corporate address

The head office and the records and registered office is located at 1055 West Georgia Street, 1500 Royal Centre, PO Box 11117, Vancouver, BC, V6E 4N7.

Going concern

The AFS are presented on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations. There are conditions and events that cast significant doubt on the validity of this assumption.

The Company does not generate cash flows from operations and has therefore relied principally on the issuance of equity securities and debt instruments to finance its operating activities to the extent that such instruments are issuable under terms acceptable to the Company. If future financing is unavailable, the Company may not be able to meet its ongoing obligations, in which case the realizable values of its assets may decline materially from current estimates.

The Company has an accumulated deficit as at October 31, 2025 and a loss and negative cash flows from operations for the period ended October 31, 2025.

These material uncertainties may cast significant doubt as to the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The AFS do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue operations. These adjustments could be material.

The assumption that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern is subject to critical judgments by management with respect to assumptions surrounding the short and long-term operating budget, expected profitability, investing and financing activities and management’s strategic planning. Should those judgments prove to be inaccurate, management’s continued use of the going concern assumption could be inappropriate. Although the Company has been successful in the past in obtaining financing, there can be no assurances that the Company will continue to obtain the additional financial resources necessary and/or achieve profitability or positive cash flows from its future operations. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate additional financing, the Company would be required to curtail its planned operations, and exploration activities.

Selected Financial Information

The AFS have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Management is responsible for, and the Company's board of directors (the "Board") approved, the AFS. The AFS and MD&A include the results of operations and cash flows for the period from incorporation on August 19, 2025 to October 31, 2025. The reader must be aware that historical results are not necessarily indicative of future performance. All amounts are reported in Canadian dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company.

The Company followed the material accounting policies presented in Note 4 of the AFS consistently throughout all periods summarized in this MD&A.

The Company operates in one segment – the planned acquisition of E&E assets or businesses.

The following table and discussion provide selected financial information from, and should be read in conjunction with, the Financial Statements:

Going Concern and Liquidity, Contractual Obligations, and Capital Management

Going Concern & Liquidity

The Company has not generated significant revenues or cash flows from operations to meet its operating and administrative expenses since inception, and does not expect to do so for the foreseeable future.

In order to continue as a going concern and to meet its corporate objectives, the Company will require additional financing through debt or equity issuances, or other available means.

Although the Company has previously been successful in obtaining financing, there is no assurance that it will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that such financing will be on terms advantageous to the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate additional financing, the Company would be


required to curtail its planned operations. Factors that could affect the availability of financing include the state of international debt, equity markets, and investor perceptions and expectations.

Furthermore, if future financing is unavailable, the Company may not be able to meet its ongoing obligations, in which case the realizable values of its assets may decline materially from current estimates. These material uncertainties may cast significant doubt as to the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue operations. These adjustments could be material.

Capital Management

It is necessary for the Company to raise new capital to fund operations on a reasonably regular basis. The Company manages its capital to meet short-term business requirements, after taking into account cash flows from operations, expected capital expenditures and the Company's holdings of cash. To facilitate the management of its capital requirements, management prepares expenditure forecasts that are updated as necessary depending on various factors, including successful capital deployment and general industry conditions. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates and adjusts its planned level of activities, including planned E&E expenditures and committed administrative costs, to ensure that adequate levels of working capital are maintained.

All sources of financing are analyzed by management and approved by the Board. There were no changes in the Company's approach or the Company's objectives and policies for managing its capital.

We believe that this approach, given the relative size and stage of the Company, is reasonable.

There may be circumstances where, for sound business reasons, funds may be re-allocated at the discretion of the Board or management of the Company.

If additional funds are required, the Company plans to raise additional capital primarily through the private placement of its equity securities. Under such circumstances, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain further funds required for the Company's continued working capital requirements. Please also refer to "Going Concern & Liquidity" for further discussion on the availability of capital resources.

Contractual Obligations

The Company has no commitments for capital expenditures.

Summary of Quarterly Results

The Company has not presented a summary of quarterly results as the operations from the date of incorporation (August 19, 2025) to September 30, 2025, are trivial.

Related Party Transactions

Key management personnel consist of members of the Board and the Company's corporate officers, including legal entities they control, as they have the authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company.

For details on amounts paid, payable, and accrued to directors and officers refer to disclosure in note 6 to the AFS.

Financial Instruments and Risks

The Company's financial assets consist of the cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, which are classified and carried at amortized cost. The Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments. The fair value of the Company's financial instruments approximates their carrying value, unless otherwise noted.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company manages this risk by careful management of its working capital. Historically, the Company's sole sources of funding has been through debt financing or the issuance of equity securities for cash or, primarily through private placements. The Company's access to financing is always uncertain. There is no assurance of continued access to significant equity funding. The Company requires additional funding to continue with its ongoing operations and accordingly is exposed to liquidity risks. Liquidity risk has been assessed as high.

Foreign Exchange Risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differ from the respective functional currency. At October 31, 2025, the Company is exposed to exchange risk as the Projects are located in Nevada, U.S.A. and E&E expenditures are primarily conducted in U.S. dollars. However, the Company has nominal foreign exchange risks on financial instruments as at October 31, 2025, as there were limited U.S. dollar denominated balances.

Industry and Economic Risk Factors that May Affect our Business

The Company's common shares should be considered highly speculative due to the nature of the Company's business and the present stage of its development. An investment in securities of the Company should only be made by persons who can afford a significant or total loss of their investment.

Economic and industry risk factors that may affect our business, in particular those that could affect our liquidity and capital resources, are as described under the heading "Risk Factors".

Other Risks and Uncertainties

The Company's operations are subject to a number of risks and other uncertainties, including risks related to the Company's ability to accurately forecast and to manage growth effectively, the Company's reliance on additional financing sufficient to fund continuing activities and acquisitions given the absence of positive cash flows from operations, and the related risk that the Company will be able to continue operating as a going concern.

Occurrence of various factors and uncertainties of risk cannot be accurately predicted and could cause actual results to differ significantly from our current expectations and result in a material adverse effect on the Company's operations, liquidity, or ultimate profitability. A comprehensive discussion of risks and uncertainties are set out under the heading "Risk Factors". The reader is directed to carefully review this discussion for a proper understanding of these risks and uncertainties.

Risk Factors

There are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent the Company from achieving its goals. If any of these risks occur, the Company's business, financial condition or results of operation may be adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of the Company's common shares could decline, and investors could lose all or part of their investment. The following is a summary of risks that could be applicable to the business of the Company:

Exploration risks

Mining operations generally involve a high degree of risk. The Company's operations are subject to all the hazards and risks normally encountered in the exploration, development and production of gold, precious metals and other minerals, including unusual and unexpected geologic formations, seismic activity, rock bursts, cave-ins, flooding and other conditions involved in the drilling and removal of material, any of which could result in damage to, or destruction of, mines and other producing facilities, damage to life or property, environmental damage and possible legal liability.


The exploration for and development of mineral deposits involves significant risks which even a combination of careful evaluation, experience and knowledge may not eliminate. While the discovery of a mineral-bearing structure may result in substantial rewards, few properties which are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines.

Major expenses may be required to locate and establish mineral reserves, to develop metallurgical processes and to construct mining and processing facilities at a particular site. It is impossible to ensure that the exploration or development programs planned by the Company will result in a profitable commercial mining operation. Whether a gold or other mineral deposit will be commercially viable depends on a number of factors, some of which are: the particular attributes of the deposit, such as quantity and quality of mineralization and proximity to infrastructure; mineral prices which are highly cyclical; and government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but the combination of these factors may result in the Company not receiving an adequate return on invested capital.

There is no certainty that the expenditures made by the Company towards the search and evaluation of silver, gold or other minerals will result in discoveries of commercial quantities of silver, gold or other minerals.

Additional financing

The Company believes that its raised capital is sufficient to meet its presently anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the near future. This belief is based on its operating plan which, in turn, is based on assumptions, which may prove to be incorrect. In addition, the Company may need to raise significant additional funds sooner to support its growth, respond to competitive pressures, acquire or invest in complementary or competitive businesses or technologies, or take advantage of unanticipated opportunities. If its financial resources are insufficient, it will require additional financing to meet its plans for expansion. The Company cannot be sure that this additional financing, if needed, will be available on acceptable terms or at all.

Furthermore, any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants, which may limit its operating flexibility with respect to business matters. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity securities, the percentage ownership of existing shareholders will be reduced, such shareholders may experience additional dilution in net book value, and such equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of its existing shareholders. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms or at all, the Company may be unable to develop or enhance its properties, take advantage of future opportunities, or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.

Volatile global financial and economic conditions

Current global financial and economic conditions remain extremely volatile and unpredictable, which may impact the Company's ability to obtain financing in the future on favorable terms or obtain any financing at all. Additionally, negative global economic conditions may cause a long-term decrease in asset values. If such global volatility and market turmoil recur or continue, the Company's operations and financial condition could be adversely impacted.

The market price of securities is volatile and may not accurately reflect the long-term value of the Company

7


Securities markets have a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies has experienced substantial volatility in the past. This volatility may affect the ability of holders of common shares to sell their securities at an advantageous price. Market price fluctuations in the shares may be due to the Company's operating results failing to meet expectations of securities analysts or investors in any period, adverse changes in general market conditions or economic trends, acquisitions, dispositions or other material public announcements by the Company or its competitors, along with a variety of additional factors. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the shares.

Financial markets historically at times experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market prices of equity securities of companies and that have often been unrelated to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. Accordingly, the market price of the common shares may decline even if the Company's results, underlying asset values or prospects have not changed.

Additionally, these factors, as well as other related factors, may cause decreases in investment values that are deemed to be other than temporary, which may result in impairment losses. There can be no assurance that continuing fluctuations in price and volume will not occur. If such increased levels of volatility and market turmoil continue, the Company's operations could be adversely impacted, and the trading price of the shares may be materially adversely affected.

Commodity prices

The price of the Company's common shares, the Company's financial results, and exploration and development activities may in the future be significantly adversely affected by declines in the price of precious metals or other minerals. The price of precious metals and other minerals fluctuates widely and is affected by numerous factors beyond the Company's control such as the sale or purchase of commodities by various central banks and financial institutions, interest rates, exchange rates, inflation or deflation, fluctuation in the value of the United States Dollars and foreign currencies, global and regional supply and demand, the political and economic conditions of major mineral-producing countries throughout the world, and the cost of substitutes, inventory levels and carrying charges. Future serious price declines in the market value of precious metals or other minerals could cause development of and commercial production from the Company's properties to be impracticable. Future production from the Company's mineral exploration properties is dependent upon the prices of precious metals and other minerals being adequate to make these properties economic.

In addition to adversely affecting the Company's financial condition, declining commodity prices can impact operations by requiring a reassessment of the feasibility of a particular project. Such a reassessment may be the result of a management decision or may be required under financing arrangements related to a particular project. Even if the project is ultimately determined to be economically viable, the need to conduct such a reassessment may cause substantial delays or may interrupt operations until the reassessment can be completed.

Reliability of resource estimates

There is no certainty that any mineral resources identified in the future on any of the Company's properties will be realized. Until a deposit is actually mined and processed, the quantity of mineral resources and grades must be considered as estimates only. In addition, the quantity of mineral resources may vary depending on, among other things, metal prices. Any material change in quantity of mineral resources, grade or stripping ratio may affect the economic viability of any project undertaken by the Company. In addition, there can be no assurance that gold recoveries or other metal recoveries in small-scale laboratory tests will be duplicated in a larger scale test under on-site conditions or during production.

Fluctuations in gold and other base or precious metals prices, results of drilling, metallurgical testing and production and the evaluation of studies, reports and plans subsequent to the date of any estimate may require revision of such estimate. Any material reductions in estimates of mineral resources could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial condition from time to time.

Operating risk and insurance coverage

No assurance can be given that insurance will be adequate to cover the Company's liabilities or will be generally available in the future or, if available, that premiums will be commercially justifiable. If the Company were to incur substantial liability and such damages were not covered by insurance or were in excess of policy limits, or if the Company were to incur such liability at a time when it is not able to obtain liability insurance, its business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Environmental risks and hazards

All phases of the Company's operations are subject to environmental regulation in the jurisdictions in which it operates. These regulations mandate, among other things, the maintenance of air and water quality standards and land reclamation. They also set forth limitations on the generation, transportation, storage and disposal of solid and hazardous waste. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which will require stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. There is no assurance that future changes in environmental regulation, if any, will not adversely affect the Company's operations. Environmental hazards may exist on the properties on which the Company holds interests which are unknown to the Company at present, and which have been caused by previous or existing owners or operators of the properties.

Government approvals and permits are currently and may in the future be required in connection with the Company's operations. To the extent such approvals are required and not obtained, the Company may be curtailed or prohibited from continuing its exploration or mining operations or from proceeding with planned exploration or development of mineral properties.

Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions thereunder, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment, or remedial actions. Parties engaged in mining operations or in the exploration or development of mineral properties may be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of the mining activities and may have civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed for violations of applicable laws or regulations.

Amendments to current laws, regulations and permits governing operations and activities of mining and exploration companies, or more stringent implementation thereof, could have a material adverse impact on the Company and cause increases in exploration expenses, capital expenditures or production costs or reduction in levels of production at producing properties or require abandonment or delays in development of new mining properties.

Land title

No assurances can be given that there are no title defects affecting any property interests of the Company. Title insurance generally is not available, and the Company's ability to ensure that it has obtained secure claim to individual mineral properties or mining concessions may be severely constrained. Furthermore, the Company has not conducted surveys of the claims in which it holds an interest and, therefore, the precise area and location of such claims may be in doubt. Accordingly, the Company's mineral properties may be subject to prior unregistered liens, agreements, transfers or claims, including native land claims, and title may be affected by, among other things, undetected defects. In addition, the Company may be unable to operate its properties as permitted or to enforce its rights with respect to its properties.

Government regulation

The mineral exploration activities of the Company are subject to various laws governing prospecting, development, production, taxes, labour standards and occupational health, mine safety, toxic substances, land use, water use, land claims of local people and other matters. In addition, no assurance can be given


that new rules and regulations will not be enacted or that existing rules and regulations will not otherwise be applied in a manner which could limit or curtail production or development in any of the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Amendments to other current laws and regulations governing mineral exploration and development or more stringent implementation thereof could also have a substantial adverse impact on the Company.

Reliance on management

The success of the Company is dependent on the performance of its senior management and members of the Board. The loss of services of these persons would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and prospects in the short-term. There is no assurance the Company can maintain the services of its officers or other qualified personnel required to operate its business. Failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its prospects.

Conflicts of interest

Certain directors and officers of the Company are also directors, officers, or shareholders of other companies in the mineral exploration industry and in other industries, which may give rise to conflicts of interest from time-to-time. The directors of the Company are required by law to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company and to disclose any interest that they may have in any project or opportunity of the Company. If a conflict of interest arises at a meeting of the Board, any director in a conflict is required under the applicable corporate laws to disclose his interest and to abstain from voting on such matter.

Risks associated with increasing competition

The mining industry is competitive in all of its phases. The Company faces strong competition from other mining companies in connection with the acquisition of properties prospective for precious and base metals, and for technical and exploration personnel who can help advance such properties. Many of these companies have greater financial resources, operational experience and technical capabilities than the Company. As a result of this competition, the Company may be unable to maintain or acquire additional attractive mining properties on terms it considers acceptable or at all. Consequently, the Company's revenues, operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Management of growth

The Company may be subject to growth-related risks including capacity constraints and pressure on its internal systems and controls. The ability of the Company to manage growth effectively will require it to continue to implement and improve its operational and financial systems and to expand, train and manage its employee base. The inability of the Company to deal with this growth may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Dividends

The Company has no earnings or dividend record and does not anticipate paying any dividends on the Company's shares in the future.

Limited market for securities

There can be no assurance that an active and liquid market for the Company's shares will develop or be maintained, and an investor may find it difficult to resell any securities of the Company.

Disclosure of Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Management has established processes to provide them sufficient knowledge to support representations that they have exercised reasonable diligence that (i) the audited financial statements do not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated or that is necessary to make a statement not misleading in light of the circumstances under which it is made, as of the date of

10


and for the periods presented by the audited financial statements; and (ii) the audited financial statements fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company, as of the date of and for the periods presented.

In contrast to non-venture issuers, this MD&A does not include representations relating to the establishment and maintenance of disclosure controls and procedures ("DC&P") and internal control over financial reporting ("ICFR"). In particular, management is not making any representations relating to the establishment and maintenance of: controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its filings or other reports or submitted under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in securities legislation; and a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. Investors should be aware that inherent limitations on the ability of management of the Company to design and implement on a cost-effective basis DC&P and ICFR may result in additional risks to the quality, reliability, transparency and timeliness of filings and other reports provided under securities legislation.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements as at the date of this MD&A.

Changes in Accounting Policies and Initial Adoption

The Company did not adopt any new accounting policies during the period. Refer to note 5 of the AFS.

Critical Accounting Judgments, Estimates, and Risks

The critical accounting judgments and estimates used by the Company are described in the AFS.

Additional disclosure for Venture Issuers without Significant Revenue

Additional disclosure concerning the Company's expenses are provided in the statements of loss and comprehensive loss and notes to the AFS.

Litigation

The Company and/or its directors may be subject to a variety of civil or other legal proceedings, with or without merit.

There are no legal proceedings outstanding, threatened or pending as of the date of this MD&A by or against the Company or to which it is party or its business or any of its assets are the subject of, nor to the knowledge of the directors and officers of the Company are any such legal proceedings contemplated which could become material to a purchaser of the Company's securities.

Subsequent Events

On December 7, 2025, the Company and APM executed the SEA, pursuant to which the Company will acquire the shares of APM's wholly-owned subsidiaries APMUS and CGI in exchange for 11,500,000 common shares of the Company, of which 7,500,000 common shares will be distributed to APM shareholders, with APM retaining the 4,000,000 Retained Shares. CGI is the registered owner of the Projects located in the Tuscarora District.

The Retained Shares will be subject to a Lock-up Agreement for 36 months, commencing after the Company has attained a listing (the "Listing") on the CSE, APM will require the Company's approval to sell in excess of 5% of the Retained Shares in any five trading day period. Further, APM shall not sell more than 15% of the Retained Consideration Shares in any single 30 day calendar month period.

Additionally, the Company will pay to APM $5 million U.S. dollars upon the commencement of commercial production at either of the Projects.

American Pacific Mining (US) Inc.
And
Clearview Gold Inc.

CONSOLIDATED CARVE-OUT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Years Ended December 31, 2024 and 2023

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)


DAVIDSON & COMPANY LLP
Chartered Professional Accountants

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Directors of
American Pacific Mining Corp.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated carve-out financial statements of American Pacific Mining (US) Inc. and Clearview Gold Inc. (the "Company"), which comprise the consolidated carve-out statements of financial position as at December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the consolidated carve-out statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss), cash flows, and changes in shareholders' equity for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated carve-out financial statements, including material accounting policy information.

In our opinion, these consolidated carve-out financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2024 and 2023, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Carve-out Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated carve-out financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audit is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 1 of the consolidated carve-out financial statements, which indicates that the Company is dependent on its ability to obtain public equity financing, or achieve profitable operations in the future. As stated in Note 1, these events and conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Emphasis of Matter – Basis of Preparation

We draw attention to Note 1 to the consolidated carve-out financial statements which describes the purpose of the consolidated carve-out financial statements.

Our opinion is not modified in respect to this matter.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information obtained at the date of this auditor's report includes Management's Discussion and Analysis.

Our opinion on the consolidated carve-out financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the consolidated carve-out financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated carve-out financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

We obtained Management’s Discussion and Analysis prior to the date of this auditor’s report. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Carve-out Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated carve-out financial statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated carve-out financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated carve-out financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Carve-out Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated carve-out financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated carve-out financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated carve-out financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated carve-out financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated carve-out financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated carve-out financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the consolidated carve-out financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

Notes to the Consolidated Carve-Out Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2024 and 2023

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

1) CORPORATE INFORMATION AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

Introduction to the consolidated carve-out financial statements

The purpose of these carve-out financial statements is to provide general-purpose historical financial information for American Pacific Mining (US) Inc. ("APMUS") and Clearview Gold Inc. ("CGI") (together, the "Company"). The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of American Pacific Mining Corp. ("APM" or the "Parent"). The accounting policies applied in these carve-out financial statements are, to the extent applicable, consistent with the accounting policies used in APM's audited consolidated financial statements.

These consolidated carve-out financial statements have been prepared on a carve-out basis from APM's audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, for the purpose of presenting the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company on a stand-alone basis, that are to be transferred to ICG Silver & Gold Ltd. ("ICG") as further described below.

The Company holds mineral exploration assets located in Nevada. It has no operating revenues and is maintained solely for the purpose of holding these exploration-stage properties.

On April 27, 2023, APM entered into a definitive agreement (the "CGI Agreement") with CGI, pursuant to which APM acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of CGI (the "CGI Acquisition"). The CGI Acquisition was completed on May 17, 2023 (the "CGI Closing Date"). Under the terms of the CGI Agreement, on the CGI Closing Date, APM paid $200,000 and issued 11.5 million common shares of APM.

The Company's head office, principal address, registered address, and records office is: Suite 910 – 510 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3A8, Canada.

As of the date of these consolidated carve-out financial statements, the Company has not identified a known body of commercial-grade mineral on any of its properties. The recoverability of the costs incurred to date is dependent upon the Company's ability to identify a commercial mineral deposit, obtain financing for development, and address any environmental, regulatory, or other constraints that may impede successful advancement of the properties. To date, the Company has not earned any revenues and is considered to be in the exploration stage.

These consolidated carve-out financial statements are prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of operations. These consolidated carve-out financial statements reflect the standalone operations of the Company for the periods presented which require significant estimates with respect to corporate costs to maintain the operations of the Company. Significantly, the Company is presented as a wholly reliant on the financial support of the Parent for the periods presented and will require financial support in the future to operate independently. Financial support will be dependent on the Company's ability to obtain public equity financing, or achieve profitable operations in the future. Management may consider other forms of financing in order to maintain operations or curtail expenditures as required.

These material uncertainties may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

These consolidated carve-out financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, were approved by the Board of Directors on January 16, 2026.

1) CORPORATE INFORMATION AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Proposed Transaction

APM entered into an arrangement agreement with ICG on December 7, 2025, as amended January 12, 2026, to sell its Tuscarora District assets, comprising the Tuscarora and Danny Boy projects, through the sale of all issued and outstanding shares of CGI and APMUS. The transaction will be completed by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).

Pursuant to the agreement, APM will receive 11,500,000 common shares of ICG (the "ICG Consideration Shares") and contingent cash payments of up to US$5 million, payable within five business days of either project achieving commercial production.

Prior to closing, all assets other than the Tuscarora District assets will be transferred out of CGI and APMUS such that ICG acquires only the Tuscarora and Danny Boy projects.

Completion of the transaction is subject to shareholder approval (two-thirds and majority-of-minority thresholds), court approval, regulatory approvals, and conditional approval of ICG’s listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”).

2) MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION

Statement of compliance

These consolidated carve-out financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

Basis of preparation

These consolidated carve-out financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value. The statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.

These consolidated carve-out financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars ("$” or “CA$”), which is also the functional currency of CGI. The functional currency of APMUS and CV Gold Inc. (“CVG”), the wholly owned subsidiary of CGI, is the United States dollar (“U.S. dollar” or “US$”).

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated carve-out financial statements. These consolidated carve-out financial statements, including comparative information, have been prepared in accordance with IFRS that were published and effective as of December 31, 2024.

Carve-Out Consolidated Statements of Financial Position

The consolidated carve-out statements of financial position reflect the assets and liabilities recorded by the Parent which are to be assigned to the Company on the basis that they are specifically identifiable and attributable to the Company. The Company is presented as wholly reliant on the Parent for cash funding as was the case in the periods presented.

Carve-Out Consolidated Statements of Loss and Comprehensive Loss

The Company has an accounting policy of expensing exploration and evaluation costs as incurred until such time as mineral reserves are proven or probable, permits to operate the mineral resource property are received and financing to complete development has been obtained. The consolidated carve-out statements of loss and

Basis of preparation (continued)

Carve-Out Consolidated Statements of Loss and Comprehensive Loss (continued)

comprehensive loss include all exploration and evaluation costs incurred with respect to the Tuscarora District assets (Tuscarora and Danny Boy projects) for the periods presented.

Other items

The preparation of carve-out financial statements requires management to make significant estimates and judgments with respect to activities and expenditures undertaken by the Company. Management cautions readers of the consolidated carve-out financial statements that the Company's results do not necessarily reflect what the results of the operations, financial position, or cash flows would have been as a standalone entity. Further, the allocation of income and expense in these carve-out statements of loss and comprehensive loss does not necessarily reflect the nature and level of the Company's future income and operating expenses. Net parent investment, presented as equity in these carve-out financial statements, includes the accumulated total loss and comprehensive loss of the Company.

Basis of consolidation

These consolidated carve-out financial statements comprise the accounts of the following entities:

  • APM US, a company incorporated under the laws of Nevada (ownership – December 31, 2024 – 100% and December 31, 2023 – 100%);
  • CGI, a company incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia (ownership – December 31, 2024 –100% and December 31, 2023 – 100%); and
  • CVG, a company incorporated under the laws of Nevada (ownership – December 31, 2024 –100% and December 31, 2023 – 100%).

All entities have a reporting date of December 31.

Subsidiaries

A subsidiary is an entity over which the Company has power to govern the operating and financial policies in order to obtain benefits from its activities. The consolidated financial statements include all the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries after eliminating inter-entity balances and transactions.

Acquisitions and disposals

The results of entities acquired during the reporting period are brought into the consolidated carve-out financial statements from the date the control is transferred; the results of entities sold during the reporting period are included in the consolidated carve-out financial statements for the period up to the date the control is ceased. Gains or losses on disposal are calculated as the difference between the sale proceeds (net of expenses) and the net assets attributable to the interest which has been sold. Where a disposal represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations, the net results attributable to the disposed entity are shown separately in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

Critical accounting estimates

The information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty considered by management in preparing the consolidated carve-out financial statements are as follows:

Critical accounting estimates (continued)

Carrying value and recoverability of exploration and evaluation assets

The carrying amount of Company's exploration and evaluation assets does not necessarily represent present or future values, and the Company's exploration and evaluation assets have been accounted for under the assumption that the carrying amount will be recoverable. Recoverability is dependent on various factors, including the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to commence and complete development and upon future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition of the mineral properties themselves. Additionally, there are numerous geological, economic, environmental and regulatory factors and uncertainties that could impact management's assessment as to the overall viability of its properties or to the ability to generate future cash flows necessary to cover or exceed the carrying value of the Company's exploration and evaluation assets. Ownership in exploration and evaluation assets involves certain inherent risks, including geological, metal prices, operating costs, and permitting risks. Many of these risks are outside the Company's control. The ultimate recoverability of the amounts capitalized for the exploration and evaluation assets is dependent upon the delineation of economically recoverable ore reserves, obtaining the necessary financing to complete their development, obtaining the necessary permits to operate a mine, and realizing profitable production or proceeds from the disposition thereof. Management's estimates of recoverability of the Company's investment in its exploration and evaluation assets have been based on current and expected conditions. However, it is possible that changes could occur which could adversely affect management's estimates and may result in future write downs of exploration and evaluation assets carrying values.

Deferred Income taxes

The estimation of income taxes includes evaluating the recoverability of deferred tax assets based on an assessment of the Company's ability to utilize the underlying future tax deductions against future taxable income prior to expiry of those deductions. Management assesses whether it is probable that some or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income, which in turn is dependent upon the successful discovery, extraction, development and commercialization of mineral reserves. To the extent that management's assessment of the Company's ability to utilize future tax deductions changes, the Company would be required to recognize more or fewer deferred tax assets, and future income tax provisions or recoveries could be affected.

Critical accounting judgments

Critical accounting judgments are accounting policies that have been identified as being complex or involving subjective judgments or assessments.

Functional currency

In accordance with IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, management has determined that the functional currency of CGI is the Canadian dollar, as this represents the primary economic environment in which CGI operates. The functional currency of APMUS and CVG is the United States dollar, as this is the primary economic environment in which these entities operate.

Going concern

The preparation of these consolidated carve-out financial statements requires management to make judgments regarding the going concern of the Company as discussed in Note 1.

2) MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, deposits held on call with banks, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into a known amount of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value, and net of bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

Foreign exchange

Translation of foreign transactions and balances into the functional currency

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the underlying entity using appropriate average rates of exchange. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency rate of exchange in effect at the end of each reporting period. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions are recognized in profit or loss.

Translation of the functional currency into the presentation currency

The results of foreign operations which have a different functional currency than the Company are translated to Canadian dollars at appropriate average rates of exchange during the year and are included in other comprehensive income (loss). The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated to Canadian dollars at rates of exchange in effect at the end of the period. Gains or losses arising on translation of foreign operation's assets and liabilities to Canadian dollars at period end are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a foreign currency translation adjustment. When a foreign operation is sold, such exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on sale.

Share-based payments

The Company benefits from the Parent's stock option plan which allows employees, directors, officers and consultants to acquire the common shares of the Parent (the "APM Shares"). The fair value of options granted is recognized as share-based payment expense with a corresponding increase in reserves. An individual is classified as an employee when the individual is an employee for legal or tax purposes (direct employee) or provides services similar to those performed by a direct employee.

Fair value is measured at grant date, and each tranche is recognized using the graded vesting method over the period during which the options vest. The fair value of the options granted is measured using the Black- Scholes option pricing model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. At each financial position reporting date, the amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of stock options that are expected to vest. In situations where equity instruments are issued to consultants and some or all of the goods or services received by the entity as consideration cannot be specifically identified, they are measured at the fair value of the share-based payment. Otherwise, share-based payments are measured at the fair value of goods or services received.

2) MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)

Income taxes

Income tax is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity. Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at period end, adjusted for amendments to tax payable with regards to previous years.

Deferred tax is recorded using the liability method, providing for temporary differences, between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences are not provided for: goodwill not deductible for tax purposes; the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting or taxable loss; nor differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date.

A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. Additional income taxes that arise from the distribution of dividends are recognized at the same time as the liability to pay the related dividend. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

Equipment

Equipment is initially recognized at cost. As well as the purchase price, cost includes directly attributable costs and the estimated present value of any future costs of dismantling and removing items. The corresponding liability is recognized within provisions. All items of equipment are subsequently carried at depreciated cost less impairment losses, if any.

Depreciation is provided on all items of equipment to write off the carrying value of items over their expected useful economic lives. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the equipment at the following annual rates:

  • Computer equipment - 30%

Material residual value estimates and estimates of useful life are updated as required, but at least annually.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset as appropriate, only when it's probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replacement part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the consolidated carve-out statements of loss during the financial year in which they are incurred.

Exploration and evaluation assets

Exploration and evaluation assets

Exploration and evaluation assets include acquired mineral rights for mineral exploration properties held by the Company. The amount of consideration paid (in cash or share value) to acquire or maintain mineral rights is capitalized. The amounts shown for exploration and evaluation assets represent costs of acquisition, incurred to date, less recoveries, and do not necessarily reflect present or future values. These costs will be written off if the exploration and evaluation assets are abandoned or sold. Included in the cost of exploration and evaluation assets

2) MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)

Exploration and evaluation assets (continued)

Exploration and evaluation assets (continued)

is the cost of any estimated decommissioning liability. The Company has classified exploration and evaluation assets as intangible in nature.

At each reporting period the Company performs an analysis to determine whether any property has adequately demonstrated technical feasibility and economic viability in order to support transition from exploration to development phase. If a project has satisfied these criteria and management has decided to proceed with development, then the exploration project is tested for impairment and transferred to property and equipment. Subsequent expenditures on the property are capitalized. Once a project in development is available for use in the manner intended by the management of the Company it is transitioned to commercial production phase. At that time depletion of costs capitalized on project put into commercial production will be recorded using the unit-of-production method based upon reserves.

Exploration and evaluation costs

Exploration and evaluation costs, other than those described above, are expensed as incurred until such time as mineral reserves are proven or probable, permits to operate the mineral resource property are received and financing to complete development has been obtained. Following confirmation of mineral reserves, receipt of permits to commence mining operations and obtaining necessary financing, exploration and evaluation costs are capitalized as deferred development expenditures included within equipment.

Impairment of long-lived assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Company's assets are reviewed to determine whether there is any indication that those assets may be impaired. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment, if any. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Fair value is determined as the amount that would be obtained from the sale of the asset in an arm's length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and the impairment loss is recognized in the profit or loss for the period. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but to an amount that does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

Provision for environmental rehabilitation

The Company recognizes liabilities for statutory, contractual, constructive or legal obligations associated with the retirement of exploration and evaluation assets and equipment, when those obligations result from the acquisition, construction, development or normal operation of the assets. The net present value of future rehabilitation cost estimates arising from the decommissioning of plant and other site preparation work is capitalized to the related asset along with a corresponding increase in the rehabilitation provision in the period incurred. Discount rates using a pre-tax rate that reflect the time value of money are used to calculate the net present value. The rehabilitation asset is depreciated on the same basis as the related asset.

The Company's estimates of reclamation costs could change as a result of changes in regulatory requirements, discount rates and assumptions regarding the amount and timing of the future expenditures. These changes are recorded directly to the related asset with a corresponding entry to the rehabilitation provision. The Company's estimates are reviewed annually for changes in regulatory requirements, discount rates, effects of inflation and changes in estimates.

Changes in the net present value, excluding changes in the Company's estimates of reclamation costs, are charged to profit and loss for the period.

Financial instruments

Financial assets

Classification and measurement

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following categories: at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL"), at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI") or at amortized cost. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.

The classification of debt instruments is driven by the business model for managing the financial assets and their contractual cash flow characteristics. Debt instruments are measured at amortized cost if the business model is to hold the instrument for collection of contractual cash flows and those cash flows are solely principal and interest. If the business model is not to hold the debt instrument, it is classified as FVTPL. Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest.

Equity instruments that are held for trading (including all equity derivative instruments) are classified as FVTPL, for other equity instruments, on the day of acquisition the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument by-instrument basis) to designate them as at FVTOCI.

Financial assets at FVTPL – Financial assets carried at FVTPL are initially recorded at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss. Realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the financial asset held at FVTPL are included in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss in the period in which they arise. Derivatives are also categorized as FVTPL unless they are designated as hedges. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company has no financial assets classified as FVTPL.

Financial assets at FVTOCI – Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently they are measured at fair value, with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income. There is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company has no financial assets classified as FVOCI.

Financial assets at amortized cost – Financial assets at amortized cost are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently carried at amortized cost less any impairment. They are classified as current assets or non-current assets based on their maturity date. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company has classified its cash, amounts receivable and reclamation deposits as amortized cost.

Financial assets (continued)

Impairment of financial assets at amortized cost

The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets that are measured at amortized cost. At each reporting date, the loss allowance for the financial asset is measured at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition. If at the reporting date, the financial asset has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the loss allowance is measured for the financial asset at an amount equal to twelve month expected credit losses. For trade receivables the Company applies the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses, which allows the use of a lifetime expected loss provision.

Impairment losses on financial assets carried at amortized cost are reversed in subsequent periods if the amount of the loss decreases and the decrease can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized.

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognized when they mature or are sold, and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred. Gains and losses on derecognition of financial assets classified as FVTPL or amortized cost are recognized in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss. Gains or losses on financial assets classified as FVTOCI remain within accumulated other comprehensive income.

Financial liabilities

The Company classifies its financial liabilities into one of two categories as follows:

Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) – This category comprises derivatives and financial liabilities incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term. They are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss.

Amortized cost – This category consists of liabilities carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The Company derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expire. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company has classified its accounts payable and accrued liabilities as other financial liabilities.

New accounting standards

New accounting standards issued and not yet effective

The IASB has issued IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, replacing IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 introduces revised requirements for presenting and disclosing financial information, with the objective of improving consistency and comparability across entities. The updates include the definition of subtotals in the statement of profit or loss, such as operating profit and profit before financing and income taxes. Furthermore, it requires the disclosure of management-defined performance measures (MPMs), which are subtotals not specified by IFRS but represent management's view of performance. In addition, IFRS 18 enhances the principles of aggregation and disaggregation to ensure that material information is not obscured. This new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, with early application permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of IFRS 18 on its financial statements, with the expectation that its adoption will enhance the quality and transparency of financial reporting.

4) EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS (CONTINUED)

Title to exploration and evaluation assets involves certain inherent risks due to the difficulties of determining the validity of certain claims as well as the potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyancing history characteristic of many exploration and evaluation assets. The Company has investigated title to all of its exploration and evaluation assets, and, to the best of its knowledge, title to all of its properties, are properly registered and in good standing.

Danny Boy Mine Property (Nevada, USA)

In connection with the acquisition of CGI (Note 1), the Company acquired the Danny Boy Mine Property which included the Danny Boy Claims and the Lappin Project.

10) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair value

Financial instruments are classified into one of the following categories: FVTPL, amortized cost and FVTOCI.

Set out below are the Company’s financial assets and liabilities by category:

December 31, 2024 FVTPL Amortized costs FVTOCI
$ $ $ $
FINANCIAL ASSETS
ASSETS
Cash 529 - 529 -
Amounts receivable 132,039 - 132,039 -
Reclamation deposits 28,743 - 28,743 -

Reclamation deposits 26,493 - 26,493 -
FINANCIAL LIABILITIES
LIABILITIES
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 13,427 - 13,427 -

The carrying values of cash, amounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the relatively short period to maturity of those financial instruments. Reclamation deposits approximately their fair value due to their liquidity.

As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no financial assets or liabilities measured and recognized in the consolidated carve-out statement of financial position at fair value that would be categorized as Level 1, 2 and 3 in the fair value hierarchy above.

IFRS 13 establishes a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of inputs used in making fair value measurements as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and

Level 3: Inputs that are not based on observable market data.

The Company has determined the estimated fair values of its financial instruments based upon appropriate valuation methodologies.

10) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)

Financial risk management

Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company's exposure to credit risk includes cash and amounts receivable.

The Company's cash are held at large financial institutions in Canada and the United States in interest-bearing accounts. The Company has no investments in asset-backed commercial paper.

The Company's maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying value of its financial assets.

Management believes that the concentration of credit risk with respect to these financial instruments is remote. Cash held in Canada and the United States are accessible. The Company's amounts receivable balance are not subject to significant credit risk, as it relates to recoverable amounts from counterparties with a low risk of default.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet commitments associated with financial instruments. The Company manages liquidity by maintaining adequate cash balances to meet liabilities as they become due.

As of December 31. 2024, the Company had cash of $529 and accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $438.

Market risk

The significant market risks to which the Company is exposed are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, and price risk.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is not exposed to varying interest rates on cash. The Company has no interest-bearing debt.

Foreign Currency risk

The Company is exposed to currency risk to the extent that monetary assets and liabilities are held in currencies other than the functional currency of each entity. The Company has not entered into any foreign exchange contracts or other hedging arrangements to mitigate this risk.

Based on the carrying amounts of the Company's monetary assets and liabilities, management has determined that the Company is not subject to significant foreign currency risk.

Commodity price risk

COMPANY OVERVIEW

APM US and CV Gold Inc. ("CVG"), a wholly owned subsidiary of CGI, are corporations incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, and CGI is incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The Company holds mineral exploration assets located in Nevada and has no operating revenues, as its activities are limited to the holding and advancement of exploration-stage properties.

On April 27, 2023, APM entered into a definitive agreement (the "CGI Agreement") with CGI to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of CGI (the "CGI Acquisition"). The CGI Acquisition closed on May 17, 2023 (the "CGI Closing Date"). Under the terms of the CGI Agreement, APM paid $200,000 in cash and issued 11.5 million APM common shares as consideration.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and For the Years Ended December 31, 2024 and 2023
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

The Company's head office and registered office is located at Suite 910 – 510 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3A8, Canada.

PROPOSED TRANSACTION

APM entered into an arrangement agreement with ICG Silver & Gold Ltd. ("ICG") on December 7, 2025, as amended January 12, 2026, to sell its Tuscarora District assets, comprising the Tuscarora and Danny Boy projects, through the sale of all issued and outstanding shares of CGI and APMUS. The transaction will be completed by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).

Pursuant to the agreement, APM will receive 11,500,000 common shares of ICG (the "ICG Consideration Shares") and contingent cash payments of up to US$5 million, payable within five business days of either project achieving commercial production.

Prior to closing, all assets other than the Tuscarora District will be transferred out of CGI and APMUS such that ICG acquires only the Tuscarora and Danny Boy projects.

Completion of the transaction is subject to shareholder approval (two-thirds and majority-of-minority thresholds), court approval, regulatory approvals, and conditional approval of ICG's listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE").

EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS

The Tuscarora Project and the adjacent Danny Boy Mine Property (together, the "Tuscarora District") comprise a historically productive, high-grade epithermal gold-silver system located in northeastern Nevada. The district lies along the northern extension of the Carlin Trend, one of the most prolific gold belts in the United States, and has been the focus of multiple exploration campaigns by APM and prior operators. The combined land package covers approximately 8,000 acres and includes numerous high-grade vein targets with a history of bonanza-grade production.

The Tuscarora District hosts a classic low-sulfidation epithermal system characterized by high-grade quartz veins and stockwork mineralization. Historical production from the district exceeds 500,000 ounces of gold and 7.5 million ounces of silver, primarily from narrow, high-grade vein structures.

Key geological features include:

  • Multiple structurally controlled vein systems with demonstrated high-grade potential.
  • Historical drill results from prior operators, including intervals with multi-ounce gold grades.
  • A geological setting consistent with other high-grade epithermal systems in Nevada.

The Danny Boy Mine Property, located immediately adjacent to Tuscarora, shares the same structural and geological framework and has historically produced high-grade gold-silver mineralization.

Total assets primarily relate to the accumulated capitalized acquisition costs of the Company's exploration and evaluation assets.

Net parent investment represents the accumulated net contributions from the Parent and the portion of operating costs — including share-based payments — allocated to the Company. The portion of Allocated Overheads was determined based on the degree of support provided by the Parent during the periods presented.

SUMMARY FINANCIAL INFORMATION

This MD&A represents the Company's first publication as a reporting issuer. As the Company has not previously prepared quarterly financial information, historical quarterly data has not been included.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company is an exploration-stage entity that has not generated operating revenues and has relied primarily on funding from the Parent to support its activities.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred cash outflows from operating activities of $347,655 and $262,815, respectively, and cash outflows from investing activities of $147,598 and $108,943, respectively. Cash used in investing activities primarily related to acquisition costs associated with exploration and evaluation assets. To support these operating and investing cash requirements, the Company received funding from the Parent totaling $496,040 and $345,604 during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred cash outflows from operating activities of $309,659 and $455,868, respectively, and cash outflows from investing activities of $140,115 and $98,175, respectively. Cash used in investing activities primarily related to acquisition costs associated with exploration and evaluation assets. To support these operating and investing cash requirements, the Company received funding from the Parent totaling $423,247 and $580,203 during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND BALANCES

Parties are considered to be related when one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party's financial and operating decisions. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. The Company has identified its directors and officers as its key management personnel. Other related parties include companies in which key management personnel have control or significant influence.

The Company recognized the following expenses incurred with related parties that were initially recognized by the Parent and subsequently allocated to the Company.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

These financial statements, including the comparative information, have been prepared in accordance with accounting policies consistent with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and the interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC"). The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments classified as fair value through profit or loss, which are measured at fair value.

The unaudited condensed consolidated carve-out interim financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and the audited consolidated carve-out financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information. Additional details regarding critical accounting estimates and judgments are provided in Note 2 to the audited consolidated carve-out financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The IASB has issued IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, replacing IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 introduces revised requirements for presenting and disclosing financial information, with the objective of improving consistency and comparability across entities. The updates include the definition of subtotals in the statement of profit or loss, such as operating profit and profit before financing and income taxes. Furthermore, it requires the disclosure of management-defined performance measures (MPMs), which are subtotals not specified by IFRS but represent management's view of performance. In addition, IFRS 18 enhances the principles of aggregation and disaggregation to ensure that material information is not obscured. This new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, with early application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of IFRS 18 on its financial statements. Although the adoption of IFRS 18 is expected to improve the presentation and disclosure of financial information, it is not anticipated to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or performance.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

In the normal course of business, the Company is inherently exposed to certain financial risks, including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk, through the use of financial instruments. The timeframe and manner in which the Company manages these risks varies based upon management's assessment of the risk and available alternatives for mitigating risk. The Company does not acquire or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. All transactions undertaken are to support the Company's operations. These financial risks and the Company's exposure to these risks are provided in various tables in note 10 of our unaudited condensed consolidated carve-out interim financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and the audited consolidated carve-out financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. For a discussion on the significant assumptions made in determining the fair value of financial instruments, refer also to note 2 of the audited consolidated carve-out financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company faces a variety of risk factors that could affect the performance of the Company's business and results of operations. Management monitors its activities and those factors that could impact them in order to manage risk and make timely decisions. Risks and uncertainties considered material in assessing the carve-out financial statements for the Company are described below.

Liquidity Concerns and Additional Future Financing Requirements.

The Company has relied on equity subscriptions to meet its capital requirements and will likely continue to depend on such financing to support its activities. The Company may require additional capital and operating expenditures in connection with the advancement of the Danny Boy Mine Property and the Tuscarora Project, as well as for general working capital purposes. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain the necessary financing as and when required. Volatile market conditions may limit or prevent the Company from securing debt or equity financing on favourable terms, or at all. Failure to obtain additional financing on a timely basis may result in delays or reductions in the Company's development plans, the forfeiture of rights to certain properties, or the curtailment or cessation of some or all of its activities.

No Revenues

To date, the Company has not generated any revenues from operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will have sufficient capital resources to continue as a going concern, that significant losses will not occur in the near term, or that the Danny Boy Mine Property or the Tuscarora Project will ultimately achieve profitability. The Company expects to continue incurring losses from exploration and evaluation activities unless and until such time as these projects enter commercial production and generate sufficient revenues to support ongoing operations. The development of the Danny Boy Mine Property and the Tuscarora Project will require the continued commitment of substantial financial resources. There can be no assurance that either project will continue as a going concern, generate revenues, or achieve profitability.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Carve-Out Interim Financial Statements (unaudited)

For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

1) CORPORATE INFORMATION AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

Introduction to the condensed consolidated carve-out financial statements

The purpose of these unaudited condensed consolidated carve-out interim financial statements is to provide general-purpose historical financial information for American Pacific Mining (US) Inc. ("APMUS") and Clearview Gold Inc. ("CGI") (together, the "Company"). The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of American Pacific Mining Corp. ("APM" or the "Parent"). The accounting policies applied in these unaudited condensed consolidated carve-out interim financial statements are, to the extent applicable, consistent with the accounting policies used in APM's audited consolidated financial statements.

These unaudited condensed consolidated carve-out interim financial statements have been prepared on a carve-out basis from APM's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, for the purpose of presenting the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company on a stand-alone basis, that are to be transferred to ICG Silver & Gold Ltd. ("ICG") as further described below.

The Company holds mineral exploration assets located in Nevada. It has no operating revenues and is maintained solely for the purpose of holding these exploration-stage properties.

On April 27, 2023, APM entered into a definitive agreement (the "CGI Agreement") with CGI, pursuant to which APM acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of CGI (the "CGI Acquisition"). The CGI Acquisition was completed on May 17, 2023 (the "CGI Closing Date"). Under the terms of the CGI Agreement, on the CGI Closing Date, APM paid $200,000 and issued 11.5 million common shares of APM.

The Company's head office, principal address, registered address, and records office is: Suite 910 – 510 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3A8, Canada.

As of the date of these unaudited condensed consolidated carve-out interim financial statements, the Company has not identified a known body of commercial-grade mineral on any of its properties. The recoverability of the costs incurred to date is dependent upon the Company's ability to identify a commercial mineral deposit, obtain financing for development, and address any environmental, regulatory, or other constraints that may impede successful advancement of the properties. To date, the Company has not earned any revenues and is considered to be in the exploration stage.

These unaudited condensed consolidated carve-out financial statements are prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of operations. These unaudited condensed consolidated carve-out financial statements reflect the standalone operations of the Company for the periods presented which require significant estimates with respect to corporate costs to maintain the operations of the Company. Significantly, the Company is presented as a wholly reliant on the financial support of the Parent for the periods presented and will require financial support in the future to operate independently. Financial support will be dependent on the Company's ability to obtain public equity financing, or achieve profitable operations in the future. Management may consider other forms of financing in order to maintain operations or curtail expenditures as required.

These material uncertainties may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

These unaudited condensed consolidated carve-out interim financial statements of the Company for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, were approved by the Board of Directors on January 16, 2026.

1) CORPORATE INFORMATION AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Proposed Transaction

APM entered into an arrangement agreement with ICG on December 7, 2025, as amended January 12, 2026, to sell its Tuscarora District assets, comprising the Tuscarora and Danny Boy projects, through the sale of all issued and outstanding shares of CGI and APMUS. The transaction will be completed by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).

Pursuant to the agreement, APM will receive 11,500,000 common shares of ICG (the "ICG Consideration Shares") and contingent cash payments of up to US$5 million, payable within five business days of either project achieving commercial production.

Prior to closing, all assets other than the Tuscarora District assets will be transferred out of CGI and APMUS such that ICG acquires only the Tuscarora and Danny Boy projects.

Completion of the transaction is subject to shareholder approval (two-thirds and majority-of-minority thresholds), court approval, regulatory approvals, and conditional approval of ICG’s listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”).

2) MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION

2) MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)

Basis of preparation (continued)

Carve-Out Consolidated Statements of Loss and Comprehensive Loss

The Company has an accounting policy of expensing exploration and evaluation costs as incurred until such time as mineral reserves are proven or probable, permits to operate the mineral resource property are received and financing to complete development has been obtained. The consolidated carve-out statements of loss and comprehensive loss include all exploration and evaluation costs incurred with respect to the Tuscarora District assets (Tuscarora and Danny Boy projects) for the periods presented.

Other items

The preparation of carve-out financial statements requires management to make significant estimates and judgments with respect to activities and expenditures undertaken by the Company. Management cautions readers of the consolidated carve-out financial statements that the Company's results do not necessarily reflect what the results of the operations, financial position, or cash flows would have been as a standalone entity. Further, the allocation of income and expense in these carve-out statements of loss and comprehensive loss does not necessarily reflect the nature and level of the Company's future income and operating expenses. Net parent investment, presented as equity in these carve-out financial statements, includes the accumulated total loss and comprehensive loss of the Company.

Basis of consolidation

These unaudited consolidated condensed carve-out interim financial statements comprise the accounts of the following entities:

  • APM US, a company incorporated under the laws of Nevada (ownership – September 30, 2025 – 100% and December 31, 2024 – 100%)
  • CGI, a company incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia (ownership – September 30, 2025 – 100% and December 31, 2024 – 100%); and
  • CVG, a company incorporated under the laws of Nevada (ownership – September 30, 2025 – 100% and December 31, 2024 – 100%).

All entities have a reporting date of December 31.

Subsidiaries

A subsidiary is an entity over which the Company has power to govern the operating and financial policies in order to obtain benefits from its activities. The unaudited consolidated condensed carve-out interim financial statements include all the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries after eliminating inter-entity balances and transactions.

Acquisitions and disposals

The results of entities acquired during the reporting period are brought into the consolidated financial statements from the date the control is transferred; the results of entities sold during the reporting period are included in the consolidated financial statements for the period up to the date the control is ceased. Gains or losses on disposal are calculated as the difference between the sale proceeds (net of expenses) and the net assets attributable to the interest which has been sold. Where a disposal represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations, the net results attributable to the disposed entity are shown separately in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

2) MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)

Critical accounting estimates

The information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty considered by management in preparing the unaudited consolidated condensed carve-out interim financial statements are as follows:

Carrying value and recoverability of exploration and evaluation assets

The carrying amount of Company's exploration and evaluation assets does not necessarily represent present or future values, and the Company's exploration and evaluation assets have been accounted for under the assumption that the carrying amount will be recoverable. Recoverability is dependent on various factors, including the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to commence and complete development and upon future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition of the mineral properties themselves. Additionally, there are numerous geological, economic, environmental and regulatory factors and uncertainties that could impact management's assessment as to the overall viability of its properties or to the ability to generate future cash flows necessary to cover or exceed the carrying value of the Company's exploration and evaluation assets. Ownership in exploration and evaluation assets involves certain inherent risks, including geological, metal prices, operating costs, and permitting risks. Many of these risks are outside the Company's control. The ultimate recoverability of the amounts capitalized for the exploration and evaluation assets is dependent upon the delineation of economically recoverable ore reserves, obtaining the necessary financing to complete their development, obtaining the necessary permits to operate a mine, and realizing profitable production or proceeds from the disposition thereof. Management's estimates of recoverability of the Company's investment in its exploration and evaluation assets have been based on current and expected conditions. However, it is possible that changes could occur which could adversely affect management's estimates and may result in future write downs of exploration and evaluation assets carrying values.

Deferred Income taxes

The estimation of income taxes includes evaluating the recoverability of deferred tax assets based on an assessment of the Company's ability to utilize the underlying future tax deductions against future taxable income prior to expiry of those deductions. Management assesses whether it is probable that some or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income, which in turn is dependent upon the successful discovery, extraction, development and commercialization of mineral reserves. To the extent that management's assessment of the Company's ability to utilize future tax deductions changes, the Company would be required to recognize more or fewer deferred tax assets, and future income tax provisions or recoveries could be affected.

Critical accounting judgments

Critical accounting judgments are accounting policies that have been identified as being complex or involving subjective judgments or assessments.

Functional currency

In accordance with IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, management has determined that the functional currency of CGI is the Canadian dollar, as this represents the primary economic environment in which CGI operates. The functional currency of APMUS and CVG is the United States dollar, as this is the primary economic environment in which these entities operate.

Going concern

The preparation of these unaudited consolidated condensed carve-out interim financial statements requires management to make judgments regarding the going concern of the Company as discussed in Note 1.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, deposits held on call with banks, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into a known amount of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value, net of bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

Foreign exchange

Translation of foreign transactions and balances into the functional currency

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the underlying entity using appropriate average rates of exchange. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency rate of exchange in effect at the end of each reporting period. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions are recognized in profit or loss.

Translation of the functional currency into the presentation currency

The results of foreign operations which have a different functional currency of the Company are translated to Canadian dollars at appropriate average rates of exchange during the year and are included in other comprehensive income (loss). The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated to Canadian dollars at rates of exchange in effect at the end of the period. Gains or losses arising on translation of foreign operation's assets and liabilities to Canadian dollars at period end are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a foreign currency translation adjustment. When a foreign operation is sold, such exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on sale.

Income taxes

Income tax is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity. Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at period end, adjusted for amendments to tax payable with regards to previous years.

Deferred tax is recorded using the liability method, providing for temporary differences, between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences are not provided for: goodwill not deductible for tax purposes; the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting or taxable loss; nor differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date.

A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. Additional income taxes that arise from the distribution of dividends are recognized at the same time as the liability to pay the related dividend. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

2) MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)

Equipment

Equipment is initially recognized at cost. As well as the purchase price, cost includes directly attributable costs and the estimated present value of any future costs of dismantling and removing items. The corresponding liability is recognized within provisions. All items of equipment are subsequently carried at depreciated cost less impairment losses, if any.

Depreciation is provided on all items equipment to write off the carrying value of items over their expected useful economic lives. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the equipment at the following annual rates:

  • Computer equipment - 30%

Material residual value estimates and estimates of useful life are updated as required, but at least annually.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset as appropriate, only when it's probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replacement part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the condensed consolidated carve-out interim statements of loss during the financial year in which they are incurred.

Exploration and evaluation assets

Exploration and evaluation assets

Exploration and evaluation assets include acquired mineral rights for mineral exploration properties held by the Company. The amount of consideration paid (in cash or share value) to acquire or maintain mineral rights is capitalized. The amounts shown for exploration and evaluation assets represent costs of acquisition, incurred to date, less recoveries, and do not necessarily reflect present or future values. These costs will be written off if the exploration and evaluation assets are abandoned or sold. Included in the cost of exploration and evaluation assets is the cost of any estimated decommissioning liability. The Company has classified exploration and evaluation assets as intangible in nature.

At each reporting period the Company performs an analysis to determine whether any property has adequately demonstrated technical feasibility and economic viability in order to support transition from exploration to development phase. If a project has satisfied these criteria and management has decided to proceed with development, then the exploration project is tested for impairment and transferred to property and equipment. Subsequent expenditures on the property are capitalized. Once a project in development is available for use in the manner intended by the management of the Company it is transitioned to commercial production phase. At that time depletion of costs capitalized on project put into commercial production will be recorded using the unit-of-production method based upon reserves.

Exploration and evaluation costs

Exploration and evaluation costs, other than those described above, are expensed as incurred until such time as mineral reserves are proven or probable, permits to operate the mineral resource property are received and financing to complete development has been obtained. Following confirmation of mineral reserves, receipt of permits to commence mining operations and obtaining necessary financing, exploration and evaluation costs are capitalized as deferred development expenditures included within equipment.

2) MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)

Impairment of long-lived assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Company’s assets are reviewed to determine whether there is any indication that those assets may be impaired. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment, if any. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Fair value is determined as the amount that would be obtained from the sale of the asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and the impairment loss is recognized in the profit or loss for the period. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but to an amount that does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

Provision for environmental rehabilitation

The Company recognizes liabilities for statutory, contractual, constructive or legal obligations associated with the retirement of exploration and evaluation assets and equipment, when those obligations result from the acquisition, construction, development or normal operation of the assets. The net present value of future rehabilitation cost estimates arising from the decommissioning of plant and other site preparation work is capitalized to the related asset along with a corresponding increase in the rehabilitation provision in the period incurred. Discount rates using a pre-tax rate that reflect the time value of money are used to calculate the net present value. The rehabilitation asset is depreciated on the same basis as the related asset.

The Company’s estimates of reclamation costs could change as a result of changes in regulatory requirements, discount rates and assumptions regarding the amount and timing of the future expenditures. These changes are recorded directly to the related asset with a corresponding entry to the rehabilitation provision. The Company’s estimates are reviewed annually for changes in regulatory requirements, discount rates, effects of inflation and changes in estimates.

Changes in the net present value, excluding changes in the Company’s estimates of reclamation costs, are charged to profit and loss for the period.

Financial instruments

Financial assets

Classification and measurement

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following categories: at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL"), at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI") or at amortized cost. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.

The classification of debt instruments is driven by the business model for managing the financial assets and their contractual cash flow characteristics. Debt instruments are measured at amortized cost if the business model is to hold the instrument for collection of contractual cash flows and those cash flows are solely principal and interest. If the business model is not to hold the debt instrument, it is classified as FVTPL. Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest.

Equity instruments that are held for trading (including all equity derivative instruments) are classified as FVTPL, for other equity instruments, on the day of acquisition the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument by-instrument basis) to designate them as at FVTOCI.

Financial assets at FVTPL – Financial assets carried at FVTPL are initially recorded at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss. Realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the financial asset held at FVTPL are included in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss in the period in which they arise. Derivatives are also categorized as FVTPL unless they are designated as hedges. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company has no financial assets classified as FVTPL.

Financial assets at FVTOCI – Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently they are measured at fair value, with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income. There is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company has no financial assets classified as FVOCI.

Financial assets at amortized cost – Financial assets at amortized cost are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently carried at amortized cost less any impairment. They are classified as current assets or non-current assets based on their maturity date. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company has classified its cash, amounts receivable and reclamation deposits as amortized cost.

Impairment of financial assets at amortized cost

The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets that are measured at amortized cost. At each reporting date, the loss allowance for the financial asset is measured at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition. If at the reporting date, the financial asset has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the loss allowance is measured for the financial asset at an amount equal to twelve month expected credit losses. For trade receivables the Company applies the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses, which allows the use of a lifetime expected loss provision.

Financial assets (continued)

Impairment of financial assets at amortized cost (continued)

Impairment losses on financial assets carried at amortized cost are reversed in subsequent periods if the amount of the loss decreases and the decrease can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized.

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognized when they mature or are sold, and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred. Gains and losses on derecognition of financial assets classified as FVTPL or amortized cost are recognized in the condensed consolidated carve-out interim statement of loss and comprehensive loss. Gains or losses on financial assets classified as FVTOCI remain within accumulated other comprehensive income.

Financial liabilities

The Company classifies its financial liabilities into one of two categories as follows:

Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) – This category comprises derivatives and financial liabilities incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term. They are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss.

Amortized cost – This category consists of liabilities carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The Company derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expire. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company has classified its accounts payable and accrued liabilities as other financial liabilities.

Refer to Note 10 for further disclosures.

New accounting standards

New accounting standards issued and not yet effective

The IASB has issued IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, replacing IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 introduces revised requirements for presenting and disclosing financial information, with the objective of improving consistency and comparability across entities. The updates include the definition of subtotals in the statement of profit or loss, such as operating profit and profit before financing and income taxes. Furthermore, it requires the disclosure of management-defined performance measures (MPMs), which are subtotals not specified by IFRS but represent management's view of performance. In addition, IFRS 18 enhances the principles of aggregation and disaggregation to ensure that material information is not obscured. This new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, with early application permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of IFRS 18 on its financial statements, with the expectation that its adoption will enhance the quality and transparency of financial reporting.

The Company's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in order to pursue the acquisition and exploration of its exploration and evaluation assets. The Company is dependent on the funding from the Parent. Neither the Company nor the Parent is subject to any externally imposed capital restrictions.

10) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair value

Financial instruments are classified into one of the following categories: FVTPL, amortized cost and FVTOCI.

Set out below are the Company's financial assets and liabilities by category:

September 30, 2025 FVTPL Amortized costs FVTOCI
$ $ $ $
FINANCIAL ASSETS
ASSETS
Cash 1,301 - 1,301 -
Amounts receivable 126,214 - 126,214 -
Reclamation deposits 27,833 - 27,833 -
FINANCIAL LIABILITIES
LIABILITIES
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 3,364 - 3,364 -

Reclamation deposits 28,743 - 28,743 -
FINANCIAL LIABILITIES
LIABILITIES
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 438 - 438 -

The carrying values of cash, amounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the relatively short period to maturity of those financial instruments. Reclamation deposits approximately their fair value due to their liquidity.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no financial assets or liabilities measured and recognized in the condensed consolidated carve-out interim statement of financial position at fair value that would be categorized as Level 1, 2 and 3 in the fair value hierarchy above.

IFRS 13 establishes a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of inputs used in making fair value measurements as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and

Level 3: Inputs that are not based on observable market data.

10) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)

Fair value (continued)

The Company has determined the estimated fair values of its financial instruments based upon appropriate valuation methodologies.

Financial risk management

Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company's exposure to credit risk includes cash and amounts receivable.

The Company's cash are held at large financial institutions in Canada and the United States in interest-bearing accounts. The Company has no investments in asset-backed commercial paper.

The Company's maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying value of its financial assets.

Management believes that the concentration of credit risk with respect to these financial instruments is remote. Cash held in Canada and the United States are accessible. The Company's amounts receivable balance are not subject to significant credit risk, as it relates to recoverable amounts from counterparties with a low risk of default.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet commitments associated with financial instruments. The Company manages liquidity by maintaining adequate cash balances to meet liabilities as they become due.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash of $1,301 and accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $3,364.

Market risk

The significant market risks to which the Company is exposed are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, and price risk.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is not exposed to varying interest rates on cash. The Company has no interest-bearing debt.

Foreign Currency risk

The Company is exposed to currency risk to the extent that monetary assets and liabilities are held in currencies other than the functional currency of each entity. The Company has not entered into any foreign exchange contracts or other hedging arrangements to mitigate this risk.

Based on the carrying amounts of the Company's monetary assets and liabilities, management has determined that the Company is not subject to significant foreign currency risk.

Commodity price risk

The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity prices. The Company's ability to raise capital to fund exploration and development activities may be subject to risks associated with fluctuations in the market price of commodities. The Company is not exposed to significant other price risk.

Note 1. Description of Business and the Arrangement

ICG Silver & Gold Ltd. (the "Company" or "ICG") is a newly formed mineral exploration and development company created to acquire and advance the Tuscarora District in northern Nevada. The Company's strategy is centered on:

  • Advancing the Tuscarora District through systematic exploration and technical studies;
  • Building a district-scale geological model; and
  • Progressing the project toward resource definition and future development.

The Tuscarora District is a silver/gold epithermal system sitting on the Carlin Trend, about one hour northwest of Elko, Nevada. Upon closing, ICG will control 100% of the approximately 8,000-acre land package, which has had extensive rock chip sampling, thousands of meters of RC and core drilling, and tens of kilometers of CSAMT geophysics completed on the property.

As an exploration-stage issuer with no producing properties, ICG does not generate operating income, cash flow, or revenue. ICG has not completed any current mineral resource estimates on its properties. There is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on any of ICG's projects, including those located in the Tuscarora District. ICG does not expect to receive income from its properties in the foreseeable future.

ICG intends to continue evaluating, exploring, and advancing its projects through additional financings. ICG's primary objective is to explore and assess its projects in the Tuscarora District, and it intends to undertake exploration work programs consistent with recommendations from its geological and technical advisors.

The Company intends to complete a proposed plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") with American Pacific Mining Corp. ("APM") whereby ICG will acquire 100% of the Tuscarora and Danny Boy projects from APM (the "Projects" and "Tuscarora District"), pursuant to an arrangement agreement entered into between APM and ICG on December 7, 2025, as amended January 12, 2026 (the "Arrangement Agreement").

Under the Arrangement, and the terms of a share exchange agreement, dated December 7, 2025, between APM, ICG, American Pacific Mining (US) Inc. ("APMUS"), and Clearview Gold Inc. ("CGI") (the "Share Exchange Agreement") the Company will acquire the shares of APMUS and CGI, which have a 100% interest in the Projects, as further discussed in Note 3.

Prior to the completion of the Arrangement, ICG intends to complete a non-brokered private placement of a minimum of 7,142,900 subscription receipts at a price of $0.35 per subscription receipt for minimum gross proceeds of approximately $2,500,015 (the "Subscription Receipt Financing").

Following completion of the Arrangement and the listing of the ICG Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE") (the "Listing"), but prior to the commencement of trading, ICG intends to complete a non-brokered private placement of a minimum of 2,857,200 units at a price of $0.35 per unit for minimum gross proceeds of approximately $1,000,020 (the "Unit Financing").

These unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements of ICG as at September 30, 2025 and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 and year ended December 31, 2024 (the "Pro Forma Financial Statements"), have been prepared by management based on historical financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS"), for illustrative purposes only, after giving effect to the pro forma adjustments on the basis of the assumptions and adjustments described in following notes to the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements.

The pro forma adjustments to the unaudited pro forma consolidated statements operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 gives effect to the adjustments as if they had been consummated on as of the beginning of the respective periods. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of financial position as of September 30, 2025 gives effect to the pro forma adjustments as if they had been consummated on September 30, 2025.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are based upon available information and assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable and supportable. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are for illustrative and informational purposes only does not purport to represent what the statements of operations would have been had the transactions as detailed in the notes that follow occurred on the dates indicated, nor is it indicative of the Company's future operating results. Actual amounts recorded upon consummation of the transactions will likely differ from those recorded in the unaudited pro forma financial statements. The pro forma adjustments, which are described in the accompanying notes, may be revised as additional information becomes available and is evaluated. The pro forma adjustments and allocations of the purchase price are based in part on estimates of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The actual fair values of the assets


and liabilities will be determined as of the effective date of the transactions and may differ materially from the amounts disclosed in the assumed pro forma purchase price allocation because of changes in fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed up to the effective date of the transactions, and as further analysis is completed.

Consequently, the actual allocation of the purchase price may result in different adjustments than those in the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements. Similarly, the calculation and allocation of the purchase prices have been prepared on a preliminary basis and is subject to change between the time such preliminary estimations were made and closing as a result of a number of factors.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation

The Company has accounted for the acquisitions of the Projects as asset acquisitions as the fair value of the assets are concentrated in the mineral rights of the respective entities. The Company has recognized the assets acquired at the fair value of the liabilities assumed, cash paid and fair value of the equity instruments issued as consideration as these fair values are more clearly evident and reliably measured. As the acquisitions have not been treated as a business combination there is no corresponding goodwill, instead the amount of consideration will be allocated to the assets acquired.

The unaudited pro forma financial information have been compiled from and should be read in conjunction with:

  • the Company's historical audited financial statements as of October 31, 2025 and for the period from incorporation (August 19, 2025) to October 31, 2025;
  • the historical audited consolidated carve-out financial statements of APMUS and CGI for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023;
  • the historical unaudited consolidated carve-out financial statements of APMUS and CGI for the nine-months ended September 30, 2025.

Management has made significant estimates and assumptions in its determination of the pro forma adjustments. As the unaudited pro forma financial information has been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final amounts recorded may differ materially from the information presented.

The unaudited pro forma financial information does not give effect to any anticipated synergies, dis-synergies, operating efficiencies, tax savings or cost savings that may be associated with the transactions.

Significant Accounting Policies

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with ICG and APMUS and CGI accounting policies, as disclosed in the respective financial statements noted above. There are no material differences in accounting policies amongst these companies and as such, no pro forma adjustments necessary to conform their accounting policies.

Note 3. Description of Pro Forma Transactions

The pro forma adjustments reflect the impact of the following pro forma transactions:

Plan of Arrangement with APM

Under the Arrangement with APM, and the terms of a share exchange agreement, dated December 7, 2025, between APM, ICG, APMUS, and CGI (the "Share Exchange Agreement"):

  • ICG will acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of CGI, the registered owner of the Danny Boy project, and all of the issued and outstanding shares of APMUS, the registered owner of the Tuscarora project, in exchange for the issuance of 11,500,000 fully-paid and non-assessable common shares in the capital of ICG (the "Consideration Shares") to APM at a deemed issue price of $0.15 per Consideration Share;
  • ICG will be required to pay USD$5,000,000 in cash to APM within five business days of either Project achieving commercial production;
  • APM will distribute, on a pro rata basis, 7,500,000 of the Consideration Shares to APM Shareholders by exchanging each outstanding APM Share for (i) one new APM Share (a "New APM Share") and (ii) approximately 0.034 (based on the number of issued and outstanding APM Shares as of the date thereof) of a common share of ICG (an "ICG Share"); and,
  • holders ("APM Warrantholders") of APM Share purchase warrants ("APM Warrants") will be entitled to receive one New APM Share and the number of ICG Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio upon exercise of each APM Warrant held.

APMUS and CGI are currently wholly-owned subsidiaries of APM.

Following the Arrangement, APM Shareholders will own approximately 19% of ICG.

Concurrent Financings

Subscription Receipt Financing

Prior to the completion of the Arrangement, ICG intends to complete a non-brokered private placement of a minimum of 7,142,900 subscription receipts at a price of $0.35 per subscription receipt for minimum gross proceeds of approximately $2,500,015. All subscription funds will be held in escrow by an escrow agent. Concurrent with the closing of the Arrangement, each subscription receipt will be automatically deemed exercised, without payment of additional consideration or further action by the holder, into one unit, with each unit consisting of one ICG Share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant, and the escrowed funds will be released to ICG. Each whole warrant will be exercisable into one ICG Share. ICG may pay cash finder's fees of up to 7% of the gross proceeds to eligible finders and may issue finder's warrants of up to 7% of the number of subscription receipts sold, the terms of the Subscription Receipt warrants and the finder's warrants will be finalized in the context of the market.

Unit Financing

Following completion of the Arrangement and the listing (the "Listing") of the ICG Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE"), but prior to the commencement of trading, ICG intends to complete a non-brokered private placement of a minimum of 2,857,200 units at a price of $0.35 per unit for minimum gross proceeds of approximately $1,000,020. Each unit will consist of one ICG Share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant will be exercisable into one ICG Share. In connection with the financing, ICG may pay cash finder's fees of up to 7% of the gross proceeds to eligible finders and may issue finder's warrants of up to 7% of the number of units sold, the terms of the Unit Financing warrants and the finder's warrants will be finalized in the context of the market.

Note 4. Pro Forma Adjustments

a) Arrangement Agreement – Purchase Price Allocation

Consideration paid: $
Resulting Issuer Shares 4,025,000
Replacement stock awards
4,025,000
Allocated as follows:
Cash and cash equivalents 1,301
Amounts receivable 126,214
Reclamation deposits 27,833
Exploration and evaluation assets 3,873,016
Accounts payable and other liabilities -3,364
4,025,000

The Resulting Issuer Shares have been determined based on the issuance of 11,500,000 common shares at a price per unit of $0.35 based on the pricing of the Subscription Receipts.

The replacement stock awards consist of the APM Warrants and were valued at $nil based on Black-Scholes models with the following inputs:

  • Current Stock Price: $0.35
  • Exercise Price: $8.76-9.93 – this range of exercise prices is reflective of the exchange ratio of approximately 0.034
  • Risk-Free Rate: 2.5%
  • Expected Volatility: 81.4 – 88.9% - estimated based on an analysis of comparable companies and with consideration of APM's historical volatility
  • Expected Life: 0.54 – 0.87 years
  • Forfeiture: 0%
  • Dividend: 0%

To reflect the acquisition of APMUS and CGI and the Purchase Price Allocation above, it is necessary to present pro forma adjustments to eliminate the net parent investment, reserves, accumulated deficit and accumulated other


comprehensive income (loss) of APMUS and CGI. As well, for purposes of the pro forma consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the foreign currency translation differences for foreign operations and foreign exchange gain have also been eliminated in the pro forma adjustments.

b) Subscription Receipt Financing

In order to reflect the closing of the Subscription Receipt Financing as if it had been completed as of September 30, 2025, the following adjustment was made in the pro forma statement of financial position:

Subscription Receipts Net Proceeds:
Minimum Subscription Receipts 7,142,900
Price per Subscription Receipt $ 0.35
Gross Proceeds $ 2,500,015
Cash Finders Fee - % 7%
Cash Finders Fee - $ 175,001
Subscription Receipts Net Proceeds $ 2,325,014

c) Unit Financing

In order to reflect the closing of the Unit Financing as if it had been completed as of September 30, 2025, the following adjustment was made in the pro forma statement of financial position:

Unit Financing Net Proceeds:
Minimum Subscription Receipts 2,857,200
Price per Subscription Receipt $ 0.35
Gross Proceeds $ 1,000,020
Cash Finders Fee - % 7%
Cash Finders Fee - $ 70,001
Unit Financing Net Proceeds $ 930,019

d) Pro forma expenses

In the consolidated carve-out financial statements of APMUS and CGI net parent investment represents the accumulated net contributions from APM and the portion of operating costs, including share-based payments, allocated to APMUS and CGI (the "Allocated Overheads"). The portion of the Allocated Overheads was determined based on the degree of support provided by APM to APMUS and CGI during the periods presented.

The Allocated Overheads were 2.4% during the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2.2% during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Resulting in expenses as follows:

For the year ended For the nine months ended
31-Dec-24 30-Sep-25
$ $
Consulting fees 11,029 6,785
Directors' fees 1,773 1,998
Professional fees 4,009 2,862
Total 16,811 11,645

As these expenses would not be reflective of ICG's expenses had the Arrangement been completed as of the beginning of the respective periods, these expenses are eliminated as a pro forma adjustment in the respective periods.

Further, ICG was incorporated on August 19, 2025, and to date its activities have been relatively limited to the raising of capital, preparing the requisite technical reports for the Tuscarora District and generally preparing for the Arrangement and Listing. Consequently, the expenses of ICG reflected in the financial statements for the period ended October 31, 2025, are not reflective of ICG's expenses had the Arrangement and Listing, along with the related Subscription Receipt Financing and Unit Financing, been completed as of the beginning of the respective periods. Accordingly, management has made proforma adjustments to eliminate the following costs:


For the year ended For the nine months ended

General and administrative expenses 1,251 1,251
Professional fees 39,574 39,574
Total 44,751 44,751

Further, in order to reflect the expected costs as if the Pro Forma Transactions had been completed as of the beginning of the respective periods, management has estimated pro forma adjustments as follows:

For the year ended For the nine months ended
31-Dec-24 30-Sep-25

Consulting fees 745,000 558,750
Exploration and evaluation costs 1,820,000 1,365,000

Transfer agent, regulatory and filing fees 60,000 45,000
Travel 12,000 9,000
Total 3,170,000 2,377,500

Note 5. Pro Forma Equity

After giving effect to the pro forma adjustments and assumptions in the above notes, the equity of the Company would be as follows:

Note 4 Number of shares Common shares $ Number of warrants Contributed Surplus/Reserves $
ICG balances as at October 31, 2025 8,250,000 195,862
