PATAGONIA GOLD

PATAGONIA GOLD CORP.

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL AND SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that an annual general and special meeting (the "Meeting") of holders of common shares ("Shareholders") of Patagonia Gold Corp. ("Patagonia" or the "Company") will be held as a virtual Shareholders' meeting online via live webcast at https://meetnow.global/MVU9F5W, on October 28, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) for the following purposes:

  1. to receive and consider the financial statements of the Company, together with the auditor's report thereon, for the financial year ended December 31, 2024;
  2. to elect directors for the ensuing year;
  3. to appoint Forbes Andersen LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, as auditor of the Company for the ensuing year and to authorize the directors to fix its remuneration;
  4. to consider and, if thought fit, to approve an ordinary resolution reapproving the Company's stock option plan; and
  5. to transact such further and other business as may properly be brought before the Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof.

Specific details of the matters proposed to be put before the Meeting are set forth in the management information circular dated September 10, 2025 (the "Information Circular"). Shareholders are reminded to review the Information Circular before voting.

The Company is using the notice-and-access system ("Notice-and-Access") under National Instrument 54-101 – Communications with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer and National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations to distribute the Notice of Meeting and Information Circular to Shareholders. Notice-and-Access allows the Company to post electronic versions of its proxy-related materials on SEDAR+ and on the Company's website, rather than mailing paper copies to Shareholders. This alternative means of distribution of the Company's proxy-related materials is more environmentally friendly by reducing paper use, and also reduces printing and mailing costs of the Company. Note that Shareholders still have the right to request paper copies of the proxy-related materials posted online by the Company under Notice-and-Access if they so choose.

The proxy-related materials are available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on the Company's website at http://patagoniagold.com/investors/shareholder-meetings/. As noted above, the Company will provide to any Shareholder, free of charge, a paper copy of the Information Circular upon request to the Company at +1(866) 223-5297 or by email at [email protected] up to one year from the date the Information Circular is filed on SEDAR+. Shareholders who wish to receive a paper copy of the Information Circular in advance of the Meeting should make such request to


the Company by no later than October 14, 2025, in order to allow reasonable time to receive and review the Information Circular prior to the proxy deadline of 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) on October 24, 2025. The Information Circular will be sent to Shareholders within three business days of their request if such request is made prior to the date of the Meeting. Following the Meeting, the Information Circular will be sent to such Shareholders within 10 days of their request.

Shareholders will receive a paper copy of a notice package (the "Notice Package") under Notice-and-Access via pre-paid mail containing: (i) a notification regarding the Company's use of Notice-and-Access and how the proxy-related materials may be obtained, (ii) a form of proxy (if you are a registered Shareholder) or a voting instruction form (if you are a beneficial Shareholder), and (iii) a supplemental mailing list return card to elect to receive paper copies of the Company's financial statements and management's discussion and analysis.

The consolidated annual financial statements (the "Annual Financial Statements") and related management's discussion and analysis ("MD&A") of the Company for the financial year ended December 31, 2024 will be mailed to those Shareholders who have requested to receive them by indicating (where marked) on the form of proxy or voting instruction form, as applicable, or through completing the supplemental mailing list return card distributed to Shareholders in connection with the Company's 2024 Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders. The Annual Financial Statements and MD&A are available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Shareholders may also request paper copies of the Annual Financial Statements and MD&A, free of charge, by calling +1 (866) 223-5297 or via email at [email protected].

The record date for determining the Shareholders entitled to receive notice of and vote at the Meeting is the close of business on September 10, 2025 (the "Record Date"). Only Shareholders whose names have been entered in the register of Shareholders as of the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting.

Registered Shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders are entitled to attend the Meeting virtually. Registered Shareholders who are unable to attend the Meeting virtually are requested to complete, date and sign the form of proxy contained in the Notice Package (in the return envelope provided for that purpose), or, alternatively, to vote by telephone, or over the internet, in each case in accordance with the instructions set out in the Notice Package. The completed proxy form must be deposited at the office of Computershare Trust Company of Canada, 320 Bay Street, 14th Floor, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5H 4A6 by mail, or the proxy vote must otherwise be registered in accordance with the instructions set forth in the Notice Package so that Computershare may provide the proxyholder with an Invite Code via email. Without an Invite Code, proxyholders will not be able to attend and vote at the Meeting.

Non-registered Shareholders who receive the proxy-related materials through their broker or other intermediary should complete and send the form of proxy or voting instruction form delivered in the Notice Package in accordance with the instructions provided by their broker or intermediary.

To be effective, a proxy must be received by Computershare not later than 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) on October 24, 2025, or in the case of any postponement or adjournment of the Meeting, not less than 48 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, prior to the time of the postponed or adjourned meeting.

All Shareholders are strongly encouraged to vote prior to the Meeting by any of the means described on pages 2 through 5 of the accompanying Information Circular.

NOTICE AND ACCESS NOTIFICATION TO SHAREHOLDERS

(the "Company") has opted to use the "notice and access" system for delivery of meeting materials to its shareholders in respect of its annual general and special meeting of shareholders to be held on October 28, 2025 (the "Meeting").

Instead of receiving paper copies of the notice of meeting and management information circular (the "Circular") of the Company for the financial year ended December 31, 2024, under "notice and access" shareholders are receiving this notice with information on how to access the Circular and proxy-related materials electronically.
