WEST RED LAKE GOLD ANNOUNCES REVISED TERMS TO PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCED BOUGHT DEAL PUBLIC OFFERING

West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd. has amended its previous agreement with Raymond James Ltd. as sole bookrunner, on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters, pursuant to which the underwriters have agreed to purchase, on a bought deal basis, 27,778,000 units and 11,236,000 charity flow-through units of the company at a price of 72 cents per unit (the unit issue price) and 89 cents per charity flow-through unit, respectively, for aggregate gross proceeds to the company of approximately $30-million. The terms of the offering have been amended to provide for a full warrant (as defined herein) rather than a half warrant as part of each of the units and charity flow-through units and to remove the acceleration feature of the warrants. Each unit will now consist of one common share of the company and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one common share of the company for an exercise price of $1.00 per share for 24 months from the closing date.

Each charity flow-through unit will now consist of one common share of the company issued as flow-through shares within the meaning of the Income Tax Act and one warrant. Upon the exercise of the warrants issued as part of the flow-through units, the underlying common share will not be issued as flow-through shares within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada).

The company has agreed to grant the underwriters an overallotment option to purchase up to an additional 15 per cent of the aggregate number of units at the unit issue price, exercisable in whole or in part at any time for a period ending 30 days from the closing of the offering.

The net proceeds pursuant to the issuance of the units are expected to be used to continue to advance the development of a restart plan for the Madsen gold mine as well as for working capital and general corporate purposes. The gross proceeds pursuant to the issuance of the charity flow-through units will be used to incur qualifying Canadian development expenses on the company's assets.

The units and charity flow-through units will be offered under the short form base shelf prospectus of the company dated April 30, 2024, as supplemented by a shelf prospectus supplement to be prepared and filed in each of the provinces of Canada, other than the province of Quebec. The units will also be offered by way of a private placement in the United States, and in those jurisdictions outside of Canada and the United States which are agreed to by the company and the underwriters, where the units can be issued on a private placement basis, exempt from any prospectus, registration or other similar requirements.

The offering is expected to close on or about May 16, 2024, and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
