VALKEA GRANTS DEFERRED SHARE UNITS TO INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS

Valkea Resources Corp. has granted an aggregate of 89,286 deferred share units (the DSUs) to certain independent directors of the company, in accordance with its omnibus incentive plan, which was reapproved by the company's shareholders at the company's last annual general meeting on Dec. 3, 2025. The DSUs vest 100 per cent 12 months from the date of grant.

The company believes that DSUs are an effective way to compensation its independent directors while allowing the company to conserve its cash for its operations.
