GRAFTON RESOURCES INC.

INFORMATION CIRCULAR

FOR THE ANNUAL GENERAL AND SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON FRIDAY, JANUARY 2, 2026

This information is given as of December 2, 2025 unless otherwise noted.

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

This Information Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management of Grafton Resources Inc. (the “Corporation”) for use at the Annual General and Special Meeting (the “Meeting”) of the shareholders of the Corporation, to be held at the time and place and for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Meeting and at any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof.

PERSONS OR COMPANIES MAKING THE SOLICITATION

The enclosed instrument of proxy is solicited by Management. Solicitations will be made by mail and possibly supplemented by telephone, electronic or other personal contact to be made without special compensation by directors, officers and employees of the Corporation. The Corporation may reimburse shareholders’ nominees or agents (including brokers holding shares on behalf of clients) for the cost incurred in obtaining authorization from their principals to execute the instrument of proxy. No solicitation will be made by specifically engaged employees or soliciting agents. The cost of solicitation will be borne by the Corporation. None of the directors of the Corporation have advised that they intend to oppose any action intended to be taken by management as set forth in this Information Circular.

APPOINTMENT OF PROXYHOLDER

A duly completed form of proxy will constitute the person(s) named in the enclosed form of proxy as the proxyholder for the registered shareholder (“Registered Shareholder”). The persons whose names are printed in the enclosed form of proxy for the Meeting are officers, directors or legal counsel of the Corporation (the “Management Proxyholders”).

A Registered Shareholder has the right to appoint a person other than a Management Proxyholder to represent the Registered Shareholder at the Meeting by striking out the names of the Management Proxyholders and by inserting the desired person’s name in the blank space provided or by executing a proxy in a form similar to the enclosed form. A proxyholder need not be a Registered Shareholder.

VOTING BY PROXY

Common shares of the Corporation (the “Shares”) represented by properly executed proxies in the accompanying form will be voted or withheld from voting on each respective matter in accordance with the instructions of the Registered Shareholder on any ballot that may be called for, and if the Registered Shareholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the Shares will be voted accordingly.

If no choice is specified and one of the Management Proxyholders is appointed by a Registered Shareholder as proxyholder, such person will vote in favour of each matter identified in the Notice of Meeting and for the nominees of management for directors and auditor.

The enclosed form of proxy also confers discretionary authority upon the person named therein as proxyholder with respect to amendments or variations to matters identified in the Notice of Meeting and with respect to other matters which may properly come before the Meeting. At the date of this Information Circular, management of the Corporation knows of no such amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting.


  • 2 -

COMPLETION AND RETURN OF PROXY

Completed forms of proxy must be deposited at the office of the Corporation’s registrar and transfer agent, Endeavor Trust Corporation, by mail or hand delivery to Suite 702 - 777 Hornby Street, Vancouver, BC, V6Z 1S4, fax to 604.559.8908, email to [email protected] or by following the procedure for internet voting provided in the accompanying form of proxy, not later than forty-eight (48) hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, prior to the time of the Meeting or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Chairman of the Meeting has the sole discretion to accept proxies received after such deadline but is under no obligation to do so.

NON-REGISTERED HOLDERS

Only Registered Shareholders or duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Meeting. Most shareholders of the Corporation are “non-registered” shareholders because the Shares they own are not registered in their names but are instead registered in the name of the brokerage firm, bank or trust company through which they purchased the Shares. More particularly, a person is not a Registered Shareholder in respect of Shares which are held on behalf of that person (the “Non-Registered Holder”) but which are registered either: (a) in the name of an intermediary (an “Intermediary”) that the Non-Registered Holder deals with in respect of the Shares (Intermediaries include, among others, banks, trust companies, securities dealers or brokers and trustees or administrators of self-administered RRSPs, RRIFs, RESPs and similar plans); or (b) in the name of a clearing agency (such as The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited (“CDS”)) of which the Intermediary is a participant.

The majority of Intermediaries now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”). Broadridge typically prepares a machine-readable voting instruction form, mails those forms to the Non-Registered Holder and asks the Non-Registered Holder to return the forms to Broadridge, or otherwise communicate voting instructions to Broadridge (by way of the internet or telephone, for example). Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of Shares to be represented at the Meeting. A Non-Registered Holder who receives a voting instruction form cannot use that form to vote Shares directly at the Meeting. The voting instruction form must be returned to Broadridge (or instructions respecting the voting of the Shares must be communicated to Broadridge) well in advance of the Meeting in order to have the Shares voted. All references to shareholders in this Information Circular and the accompanying form of proxy and Notice of Meeting are to shareholders of record unless specifically stated otherwise.

Non-Registered Holders who have not objected to their Intermediary disclosing certain ownership information about themselves to the Corporation are referred to as “NOBOs”. Those Non-Registered Holders who have objected to their Intermediary disclosing ownership information about themselves to the Corporation are referred to as “OBOs”.

Meeting materials sent to NOBOs are accompanied by a request for voting instructions (a “VIF”). This form is instead of a proxy. By returning the VIF in accordance with the instructions noted on it, a Non-Registered Holder is able to instruct the Registered Shareholder how to vote on behalf of the Non-Registered Shareholder. VIFs should be completed and returned in accordance with the specific instructions noted on the VIF. The purpose of this procedure is to permit Non-Registered Holders to direct the voting of the Shares which they beneficially own. Should a Non-Registered Holder who receives a VIF wish to attend the Meeting or have someone else attend on his/her/its behalf, the Non-Registered Holder may print his/her/its name or the name of the other person attending the Meeting in the space provided in the VIF, which will grant the Non-Registered Holder or his/her/its nominee the right to attend and vote at the Meeting. Non-Registered Holders should carefully follow the instructions set out in the VIF including those regarding when and where the VIF is to be delivered.

Management of the Corporation does not intend to pay for Intermediaries to forward the Meeting materials and VIF to OBOs. OBOs will not receive the Meeting materials unless their Intermediary assumes the cost of the delivery.


  • 3 -

REVOCABILITY OF PROXY

Any Registered Shareholder who has returned a proxy may revoke it at any time before it has been exercised. In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a proxy may be revoked by instrument in writing, including a proxy bearing a later date, executed by the Registered Shareholder or by their attorney authorized in writing or, if the Registered Shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal or by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized. The instrument revoking the proxy must be deposited to Endeavor Trust Corporation at Suite 702 - 777 Hornby Street, Vancouver, BC, V6Z 1S4 at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the date of the Meeting, or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, or with the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting prior to the commencement of the Meeting or, if adjourned or postponed, any reconvening thereof. A revocation of proxy does not affect any matter on which a vote has been taken prior to the revocation.

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

Other than as disclosed elsewhere in this Information Circular, none of the directors or executive officers of the Corporation, no proposed nominee for election as a director of the Corporation, none of the persons who have been directors or executive officers of the Corporation since the commencement of the Corporation's last completed financial year and no associate or affiliate of any of the foregoing persons has any material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in any matter to be acted upon at the Meeting, save and except for the election of directors, the appointment of auditor and the approval of the Amended Stock Option Plan (as described below). See "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon".

VOTING SHARES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF

On November 25, 2025, an aggregate of 11,360,901 Shares without par value were issued and outstanding, each Share carrying the right to one vote. At a general meeting of the shareholders of the Corporation, on a show of hands, every shareholder present in person shall have one vote and, on a poll, every shareholder shall have one vote for each Share of which he/she/it is the holder.

Only shareholders of record on the close of business on November 25, 2025 who either personally attend the Meeting or who complete and deliver an instrument of proxy in the manner and subject to the provisions set out under the headings "Appointment of Proxyholder", "Completion and Return of Proxy" and "Revocability of Proxy" will be entitled to have his, her or its Shares voted at the Meeting or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof.

The Articles of the Corporation provide that a quorum for the transaction of business at a meeting of shareholders is two shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting whether in person or by proxy who hold, in the aggregate, at least 5% of the issued shares entitled to be voted at the meeting.

To the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of the Corporation, the following person beneficially owns, or exercises control or direction over, directly or indirectly, Shares carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to all outstanding Shares of the Corporation:

Stock Options and Other Compensation Securities

Table of Compensation Securities

None of the Named Executive Officer or directors of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries received any compensation securities from the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries during the financial year ended December 31, 2024 for services provided, directly or indirectly, to the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries.

As at December 31, 2024, none of the Named Executive Officers or directors held any stock options (the "Options").

Exercise of Compensation Securities by Directors and Named Executive Officers

No Named Executive Officer or director exercised any compensation securities during the financial year ended December 31, 2024.

Stock Option Plans and Other Incentive Plans

The board of directors of the Corporation (the "Board") adopted a stock option plan on March 1, 2021 (the "Stock Option Plan"), which was approved by the shareholders of the Corporation at the annual general meeting of shareholders of the Corporation held on October 14, 2022. The purpose of the Stock Option Plan is to advance the interests of the Corporation by encouraging the directors, officers, employees, management company employees and consultants of the Corporation, and of its subsidiaries and affiliates, if any, to acquire Shares in the share capital of the Corporation, thereby increasing their proprietary interest in the Corporation, encouraging them to remain associated with the Corporation and furnishing them with additional incentive in their efforts on behalf of the Corporation in the conduct of its affairs. The Stock Option Plan provides that, subject to the requirements of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "Exchange"), the aggregate number of securities reserved for issuance will be 10% of the number of the Shares issued and outstanding at the time such options are granted.

In accordance with the policies of the Exchange, the Stock Option Plan is considered an "evergreen plan" and evergreen plans and all unallocated awards under evergreen plans must be approved by shareholders within three years of institution and every three years thereafter. In addition, on December 2, 2025, the Board approved, subject to receipt of shareholder approval, certain amendments to the Stock Option Plan. Accordingly, the shareholders of the Corporation will be asked at the Meeting to approve the Amended Stock Option Plan (as defined below) and all unallocated Options under the Amended Stock Option Plan. See "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon - Approval of Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan" for further details.

The summary of the Stock Option Plan below is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Stock Option Plan, available on SEDAR+ under the profile of the Corporation and will be available for review at the Meeting.

Administration

The Stock Option Plan is administered by the Board or a committee of the Board if the Board so elects, which has full and final authority with respect to the granting of all options thereunder.

Eligible Optionees

The Stock Option Plan allows the Corporation to grant Options to a bona fide director, officer, employee, consultant or a corporation wholly owned by such director, officer or consultant at the time the Option is granted (an "Eligible Person").

Number of Shares Issuable

(e) if an optionee dies, any vested Option held by him or her at the date of death will become exercisable by the Optionee’s lawful personal representatives, heirs or executors until the earlier of one year after the date of death of such Optionee and the date of expiration of the term otherwise applicable to such Option;


  • 7 -

(g) if a Change of Control (as defined in the Stock Option Plan) occurs, all outstanding Options shall become vested, whereupon such Options may be exercised in whole or in part by the applicable Eligible Person; and

(h) in the event of a take-over bid being made to the shareholders generally, immediately upon receipt of the notice of the take-over bid, the Corporation shall notify each optionee currently holding any Options, of the full particulars of the take-over bid, and all Options shall become vested and exercised in whole or in part by such optionee so as it permit the optionee to tender the Shares underlying their Options received upon such exercise pursuant to the offer, subject to certain terms and conditions.

Amendment or Termination of the Stock Option Plan

The Board may, by resolution, amend or terminate the Stock Option Plan, but no such amendment or termination shall, except with the written consent of the Optionees concerned, affect the terms and conditions of Options previously granted under the Stock Option Plan which have not then lapsed, terminated or been exercised.

Any amendment to the Stock Option Plan granted pursuant to the Stock Option Plan shall not become effective until such Exchange and shareholder approval as is required by Exchange policies and applicable securities laws has been received.

All Options granted under the Stock Option Plan expire on a date determined by the Board, which shall be not later than five years after the grant of such Options.

Employment, Consulting and Management Agreements

The Corporation is not party to any employment, consulting or management agreements for ongoing and future services with a director or Named Executive Officer or a person performing services of a similar capacity, pertaining to compensation that was provided during the financial year ended December 31, 2024.

Oversight and Description of Director and Named Executive Officer Compensation

Directors and Named Executive Officers may be granted, from time to time, Options in accordance with the Stock Option Plan. See "Stock Option Plans and Other Incentive Plans" for a summary of the terms of the Stock Option Plan. Given the Corporation's size and its stage of development, the Corporation has not appointed a compensation committee at this time. Management of the Corporation conducts annual reviews of the compensation of the Corporation's directors and executive officers and make recommendations to the Board. The Corporation currently relies solely on Board discussion without any formal objectives, criteria and analysis to determine the amount of compensation payable to directors and Named Executive Officers.

Philosophy

Compensation paid to the Named Executive Officers is based on the size and stage of development of the Corporation and reflects the need to provide incentive and compensation for the time and effort expended by the Named Executive Officers, while taking into account the financial and other resources of the Corporation, as well as increasing shareholder value.

The Corporation's executive compensation currently consists of potential grants of Options under the Stock Option Plan. The Board will review the compensation of Named Executive Officers and make adjustments, if appropriate, to ensure that the compensation of the Named Executive Officers is commensurate with the services they provide.


  • 8 -

Base Salary

No base salaries were paid to the Named Executive Officers for the financial year ended December 31, 2024. The Corporation may include base salary as a principal component of executive compensation in the future to be based on the position held, the related responsibilities and functions performed by the Named Executive Officer and salary ranges for similar positions in comparable companies. Individual and corporate performance may also be taken into account in determining base salary levels for Named Executive Officers.

Option-based Awards

The Corporation believes that encouraging its directors and officers to become shareholders is the best way of aligning their interests with those of its shareholders. Equity participation is accomplished through the Stock Option Plan. Options may be granted to directors and officers taking into account a number of factors, including, base salary and bonuses and competitive factors.

The Option component of compensation provided by the Corporation is intended to advance the interests of the Corporation by encouraging the directors, officers, including Named Executive Officers, employees and consultants of the Corporation to acquire Shares, thereby increasing their proprietary interest in the Corporation, encouraging them to remain associated with the Corporation and furnishing them with additional incentive in their efforts on behalf of the Corporation in the conduct of its affairs. Grants under the Stock Option Plan are intended to provide long term awards linked directly to the market value performance of the Shares. The Board will review management's recommendations for the granting of Options to management, directors, officers, including Named Executive Officers, and other employees and consultants of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. Options are granted according to the specific level of responsibility of the particular executive. The number of outstanding Options is also considered by the Board when determining the number of Options to be granted in any particular year due to the limited number of Options which are available for grant under the Stock Option Plan.

Pension Benefits

The Corporation does not provide retirement benefits for directors or Named Executive Officers.

Exemption in Section 6.1

The Corporation is a “venture issuer” as defined in NI 52-110 and is relying on the exemption in section 6.1 of NI 52-110 relating to Part 3 (Composition of Audit Committee) and Part 5 (Reporting Obligations).

STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES

National Instrument 58-101 - Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices requires all reporting issuers to provide certain annual disclosure of their corporate governance practices with respect to the corporate governance guidelines adopted in National Policy 58-201 - Corporate Governance Guidelines (“NP 58-201”). These guidelines are not prescriptive. Corporate governance relates to the activities of the Board, the members of which are elected by and are accountable to the shareholders and takes into account the role of the individual members of management who are appointed by the Board and who are charged with the day-to-day management of the Corporation. The Board is committed to sound corporate governance practices, which are both in the interests of its shareholders and contribute to effective and efficient decision making. The Board is of the view that the Corporation’s general approach to corporate governance, summarized below, is appropriate and substantially consistent with the objectives reflected in NP 58-201.

Board of Directors

The Board is currently composed of five directors, John Campbell Smyth, James McCrea, Jan Michelle Bikic, Queenie Kuang and John Seaman. Mr. McCrea will not be standing for re-election as a director of the Corporation at the Meeting. Directors are considered to be independent if they have no direct or indirect material relationship with the Corporation. 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. The independent members of the Board at present are James McCrea, Jan Michelle Bikic and John Seaman. The non-independent members of the Board are John Campbell Smyth and Queenie Kuang as they are executive officers of the Corporation.

The Board facilitates its independent supervision over management by having Board meetings of the independent directors of the Corporation.

Directorships

The directors of the Corporation are also currently directors of the following other reporting issuers:

Director Reporting Issuer Exchange
John Campbell Smyth Carlton Precious Inc. (formerly known as Nubian Resources Ltd.) TSXV
Fitzroy Minerals Inc. TSXV

Orientation and Continuing Education

When new directors are appointed they receive orientation, commensurate with their previous experience, on the Corporation’s business, assets and industry and on the responsibilities of directors. Board meetings may also include presentations by the Corporation’s management and employees to give the directors additional insight into the Corporation’s business.

Nomination of Directors

The Board will consider 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 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 Corporation, this policy will be reviewed.

Compensation

Management of the Corporation will conduct an annual review of the compensation of the Corporation’s directors and executive officers and make recommendations to the Board. The Board determines compensation for the directors and executive officers.

Other Board Committees

The Board has no other committees other than the Audit Committee.

Ethical Business Conduct

The Board has found that the fiduciary duties placed on individual directors by the Corporation’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 Corporation.

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. The Board does not consider that formal assessments would be useful at this stage of the Corporation’s development. The Board conducts informal annual assessments of the Board’s effectiveness, the individual directors and the Audit Committee. As part of the assessments, the Board may review its mandate and conduct reviews of applicable corporate policies.

PARTICULARS OF MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

A. Election of Directors

The Board currently consists of five (5) directors. Mr. McCrea will not be standing for re-election at the Meeting. The Corporation intends to set the number of directors at four (4) and to elect four (4) directors for the ensuing year. The Board proposes to nominate the persons named in the table below for election as directors of the Corporation. Each director elected will hold office until the next annual general meeting of the Corporation or until their successor is duly elected or appointed, unless the office is earlier vacated in accordance with the Articles of the Corporation or the BCBCA or they become disqualified to act as a director.

(b) was subject to a cease trade order, an order similar to a cease trade order or an order that denied the relevant corporation access to any exemption under securities legislation, for a period of more than 30 consecutive days, that was issued after the proposed director ceased to be a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer and which resulted from an event that occurred while that person was acting in the capacity as director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer.

No proposed director of the Corporation, or any personal holding company of the proposed directors:

(a) is, as at the date of this Information Circular, or has been within the 10 years before the date of this Information Circular, a director or executive officer of any corporation (including the Corporation) that, while that person was acting in that capacity, or within a year of that person ceasing to act in that capacity, became bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency or was subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangement or compromise with creditors or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold its assets; or

As required pursuant to National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations (“NI 51-102”), a copy of the complete reporting package, including the Corporation’s Notice of Change of Auditor dated October 1, 2025 and letters of acknowledgement from each of DeVisser and Adam Sung, were filed on SEDAR+ and are attached to this Information Circular as Schedule “B”. There have been no Reportable Events (as such term is defined in NI 51-102)


  • 16 -

and no reservations or modified opinions in the auditor’s report on the Corporation’s financial statements for (i) the two most recently completed financial years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 or, (ii) for any period subsequent thereto preceding the effective date of the resignation of Adam Sung.

C. Approval of Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan

At the annual general meeting of shareholders of the Corporation held on October 14, 2022, the shareholders approved the Stock Option Plan, adopted by the Board on March 1, 2021, which reserves a rolling maximum of 10% of the number of Shares issued and outstanding on the applicable date of grant.

On December 2, 2025, the Board approved, subject to receipt of shareholder approval, certain amendments to the Stock Option Plan to bring the Stock Option Plan into compliance with the current policies of the Exchange, to remove unnecessary restrictions under the Stock Option Plan and make other amendments of a housekeeping nature. The primary amendments to the Stock Option Plan are summarized below. A blacklined copy of the amended and restated stock option plan of the Corporation (the “Amended Stock Option Plan”) is attached to this Information Circular as Schedule “C”, indicating the changes made to the Stock Option Plan. The Amended Stock Option Plan is being submitted to shareholders at the Meeting for approval. If approved by shareholders, the Amended Stock Option Plan will become effective on the date of such shareholder approval and will replace and supersede the current Stock Option Plan.

The amendments to the Stock Option Plan include the following:

(a) revising Section 4.3 of the Stock Option Plan to clarify that disinterested shareholders of the Corporation can approve a grant of stock options that exceeds the limit, whereby the aggregate number of Shares subject to a stock option that may be granted to any one individual in any 12-month period under the Stock Option Plan shall not exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding Shares determined at the time of such grant;

(b) removing Section 4.4 of the Stock Option Plan, to eliminate the restriction that the aggregate number of Shares subject to an option that may be granted to any one consultant in any 12-month period under the Stock Option Plan shall not exceed 2% of the issued and outstanding Shares determined at the time of such grant;

(c) revising Section 5.1 of the Stock Option Plan, in accordance with the policies of the Exchange, to specify that the exercise price of an option may not be lower than the greater of $0.05, and the closing market price of the Shares on the Exchange on: (a) the trading day prior to the date of grant of the stock options; and (b) the date of grant of the stock options;

(d) removing Section 5.2 of the Stock Option Plan to eliminate the minimum exercise price limitation where, if options were granted within 90 days of a public distribution by prospectus, the exercise price of a stock option could not be less than the price paid by investors for Shares acquired under the public distribution; and

(e) revising Part 8 of the Stock Option Plan, in accordance with the policies of the Exchange, to specify that, unless otherwise permitted by the Exchange, stock options may not be amended once issued.

The above summary of the amendments are qualified in their entirety to the full blacklined copy of the Amended Stock Option Plan attached as Schedule “C” to this Information Circular. Other than as described above, the terms of the Amended Stock Option Plan remain substantially the same as the Stock Option Plan as described in “Statement of Executive Compensation – Stock Option Plans and Other Incentive Plans”.

Under the policies of the Exchange, the Amended Stock Option Plan is considered an “evergreen” plan and accordingly, the Corporation must obtain shareholder approval of the Amended Stock Option Plan and all unallocated awards under the Amended Stock Option Plan within three years after institution and within every three years thereafter. If shareholder approval is obtained at the Meeting for the Amended Stock Option Plan Resolution (as defined below), the Corporation will not be required to seek further approval for the Amended Stock Option Plan or for the grant of unallocated Options under the Amended Stock Option Plan until the Corporation’s 2029 annual meeting of shareholders (provided that such meeting is held on or prior to January 2, 2029). If the Amended Stock


  • 17 -

Option Plan Resolution is not approved at the Meeting, the Amended Stock Option Plan will not be implemented, all currently unallocated Options under the Stock Option Plan will no longer be available for grant and previously granted Options will not be available for reallocation if they are cancelled prior to exercise, until such time as shareholder approval is obtained.

Shareholder Approval

At the Meeting, the shareholders of the Corporation will be asked to consider and vote on an ordinary resolution, with or without variation, to approve the Amended Stock Option Plan for a three-year period ending January 2, 2029 and all unallocated awards under the Amended Stock Option Plan (the “Amended Stock Option Plan Resolution”), which Amended Stock Option Plan Resolution requires approval of greater than 50% of the votes cast by the shareholders, who, being entitled to do so, vote, in person or by proxy, on the Amended Stock Option Plan Resolution at the Meeting, as follows:

“RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution, that:

  1. the amended and restated stock option plan (the “Amended Stock Option Plan”) of Grafton Resources Inc. (the “Corporation”), as approved by the board of directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) on December 2, 2025, substantially in the form attached as Schedule “C” to the information circular of the Corporation dated December 2, 2025, is hereby authorized and approved until January 2, 2029 and the reservation of and allowance for the issuance of up to 10% of the issued and outstanding common share capital of the Corporation (the “Shares”), from time to time, from treasury is hereby authorized and approved;

  2. the unallocated stock options under the Amended Stock Option Plan are hereby approved and authorized and the Corporation will continue to have the ability to grant awards under the Amended Stock Option Plan and to satisfy such awards through the issuance of Shares from the treasury of the Corporation and such approval and authorization shall be effective until January 2, 2029, being the date that is three years from the date of the meeting of shareholders of the Corporation at which shareholder approval is being sought;

  3. the Board, or any persons appointed by the Board to administer the Amended Stock Option Plan, is authorized to make such amendments to the Amended Stock Option Plan from time to time as are requested by an applicable stock exchange or as the Board may, in its discretion, consider to be appropriate, provided that such amendments will be subject to the approval of all applicable regulatory authorities if required and in certain cases, in accordance with the terms of the Amended Stock Option Plan, the shareholders;

  4. any one director or officer of the Corporation is hereby authorized to execute and deliver on behalf of the Corporation all such documents and instruments and to do all such other acts and things as in such director’s opinion may be necessary to give effect to the matters contemplated by these resolutions; and

  5. notwithstanding that this resolution be passed by the shareholders of the Corporation, the Board is hereby authorized and empowered to revoke this resolution, without any further approval of the shareholders of the Corporation, at any time if such revocation is considered necessary or desirable to the Board.”

Recommendation of the Board

The Board has determined that the Amended Stock Option Plan is in the best interests of the Corporation and the shareholders and unanimously recommends that the shareholders vote in favour of the Amended Stock Option Plan Resolution. In the absence of any contrary directions, it is the intention of management to vote proxies in the accompanying form FOR the Amended Stock Option Plan Resolution.

The Board reserves the right to amend any terms of the Amended Stock Option Plan or not to proceed with the Amended Stock Option Plan Resolution at any time prior to the Meeting if the Board determines that it would be in the best interests of the Corporation and the shareholders to do so in light of any subsequent event or development occurring after the date of the Information Circular.
