INCA ONE PROVIDES DETAILS ON NEW US$25 MILLION GOLD LOAN AND A SHAREHOLDER UPDATE

Inca One Gold Corp. has provided the following general update on its CCAA (Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act) proceedings and has proposed a new gold loan financing.

As previously reported on April 8, 2024, the company announced the receipt of a notice of default from OCIM Precious Metals related to a missed gold loan payment. The company was unsuccessful in its negotiations with OCIM to find an amicable solution to settle the outstanding debt that would have been in the best interests of all its stakeholders.

On June 3, 2024, Inca One sought and obtained an order for creditor protection from the Supreme Court of British Columbia (SCBC) pursuant to the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act. The CCAA process allowed for the board of directors of the company to remain in place and for management to maintain its responsibility for the day-to-day operations of the company, under the general oversight of a court-appointed monitor, FTI Consulting Canada Inc. The CCAA process provides protection to the company from creditors. Nonetheless, the company is committed to taking all steps necessary to protect and preserve the value of its business, property and the interests of all stakeholders in both Canada and Peru.

On July 9, 2024, Inca One agreed to terms for a $25-million (U.S.) gold loan facility that will be presented by Westmount Capital. Westmount is a public and investor relations company based in Geneva, since 2006. Westmount co-ordinates European road shows for Canadian listed micro-cap companies with high-growth potential, which are undervalued and undercovered. It has developed a strong network of qualified wealth investors, high-net worth individuals, family offices and decision-makers in Europe.

The terms of the gold loan presented by Westmount are as follows. The gold loan will mature 60 months after closing, which is expected to be on or about Sept. 30, 2024. The first $20-million (U.S.) of the gold loan will be repaid in 16 equal quarterly instalments, with the first repayment occurring 12 months from the Issuance Date and then every quarter thereafter. A final US$5 million payment will be due and payable at the end of the 60-month term. The debentures will be priced in gold ounces at a 15-per-cent discount to the spot price of gold at the closing date. The debentureholder will have the right to receive payment in either cash or the equivalent amount of refined gold. In addition to the discount, the debentures will bear interest at 8 per cent per annum payable quarterly in cash. The gold loan will be secured by the company's gold inventory and processing facilities in Peru. Interested investors can contact Westmount directly.

"Our top priority at this moment is working with our advisers at Westmount Capital to secure the necessary financing for the $25--million (U.S.) gold loan," stated Edward Kelly, Inca One president and chief executive officer. With the completion of this funding arrangement, the company's debts will be restructured and Inca One will be substantially funded. We will immediately restart operations once the funds are in place and get back to creating value for stakeholders, shareholders, employees and local communities."

Since the initial order and pursuant to the CCAA, the SCBC extended the stay period in favour of the company under a second amended and restated initial order (second ARIO) and approved the company to enter into an interim financing agreement with a private lender on Aug. 2, 2024. This debtor-in-possession term loan (DIP loan) is for the principal sum of up to $1-million (U.S.) and is to be used by the company to meet its near-term general working capital requirements, including legal, restructuring, administrative and general corporate costs in connection with the CCAA proceedings and the court-approved cash flows. To date, all finances have been drawn and are being deployed as indicated. For additional terms of the DIP loan, please see the company's DIP loan press release.

On Aug. 26, 2024, on application by the company, the SCBC approved a claims process order as part of the company's continuing CCAA proceedings. The order provides for a claims process pursuant to which the monitor will call for and adjudicate, as necessary, all claims against the company. Copies of all claims process forms are available on the monitor's website.

Additionally, and pursuant to the CCAA, the SCBC further extended the stay period under a second ARIO until Oct. 7, 2024, allowing the company the necessary time to complete the gold loan. The proceeds of the gold loan will be an important part of a plan of arrangement that will restructure the company's financial obligations to its creditors and finance the future operations and inventory of the company.

During this CCAA period, the company's common shares have been suspended from trading on the TSX Venture Exchange and its secondary stock exchanges (OTCQB) in the United States and Frankfurt Stock Exchange (FSE) in Europe and will remain suspended pending clarification of company affairs. After the company emerges from creditor protection and completes its application for relisting, its common shares are anticipated to be reinstated for trading on the TSX-V, and OTCQB and FSE exchanges.

Since the company was forced to enter CCAA, management and the board of directors have taken all the necessary steps to reduce costs and accordingly have placed both plants on care and maintenance. The restart of operations is expected once the company emerges from CCAA proceedings. Inca One believes it will emerge from this restructuring process financially stable and ready to take advantage of the continued strengthening gold price and precious metals environment.
