This press release is issued pursuant to National Instrument 62-104, Take-Over Bids and Issuer Bids, and NI 62-103, The Early Warning System and Related Take-Over Bid and Insider Reporting Issues.
Jimmy Lee of Dubai, United Arab Emirates, reports that, on Aug. 31, 2026, he acquired six million common shares in the capital of Val-d'Or Mining Corp. (the issuer) for cash consideration of 7.5 cents per common share for total cash consideration of $450,000 in connection with the partial exercise of an option granted by the vendor to Mr. Lee in accordance with the terms of a share purchase agreement dated July 11, 2025, between Mr. Lee and the vendor. As a result of this acquisition, Mr. Lee's securityholding percentage of common shares of the issuer increased by approximately 5.39 per cent.
Pursuant to the agreement, the vendor granted Mr. Lee the option to acquire up to an additional 12 million common shares at a price of 7.5 cents per optioned share, subject to the terms and conditions of such agreement. The remaining six million optioned shares continue to be available under the option, which is exercisable until July 11, 2027. Such period may be accelerated on notice by the vendor to Mr. Lee if the average number of the issuer's common shares traded exceeds 10,000 common shares per day on the TSX Venture Exchange during the applicable preceding 20-trading-day period and the volume-weighted average price for the issuer's common shares on the TSX-V equals or is greater than 20 cents per common share.
Immediately before the transaction that triggered the requirement to issue this release, Mr. Lee owned directly an aggregate 15,965,999 common shares of the issuer, representing approximately 14.33 per cent of the issuer's issued and outstanding common shares.
Immediately after the transaction that triggered the requirement to issue this release, Mr. Lee owns directly an aggregate 21,965,999 common shares of the issuer, representing approximately 19.72 per cent of the issuer's issued and outstanding common shares. Assuming full exercise of the option, Mr. Lee will own directly an aggregate 27,965,999 common shares of the issuer, representing approximately 25.11 per cent of the issuer's issued and outstanding common shares.
The securities were acquired for investment purposes by Mr. Lee and he will evaluate his investment in the issuer and will increase or decrease his investment by future acquisitions or dispositions of securities of the issuer at his discretion, as circumstances warrant. As of the date hereof, Mr. Lee has no immediate future intention to acquire additional securities of the issuer or dispose of securities of the issuer that he owns. Mr. Lee may, in the future, exercise the option and, thus, acquire further common shares in the capital of the issuer.
Mr. Lee is relying on the private agreement exemption contained in Section 4.2 of National Instrument 62-104, Take-Over Bids and Issuer Bids, on the basis that: (i) the purchase of the common shares that are the subject of this disclosure was not made from more than five persons; (ii) the offer to purchase was not made generally to all holders of the class of securities that is the subject of this disclosure; and (iii) the value of the consideration paid for the securities acquired, including brokerage fees or commissions, was not greater than 115 per cent of the market price of the common shares as determined in accordance with Section 1.11 of NI 62-104.
