Now, we can all look forward to results from our current drill campaign at Gryphon together.”

The Transaction

Pursuant to the Transaction, each holder of REYG Shares (a “REYG Shareholder” and collectively, the “REYG Shareholders”) received one (1) common share of Reyna Silver (a “RSLV Share”) for every three (3) REYG Shares held (the “Consideration”).

As a result of the Transaction, 67,231,221 REYG Shares (excluding 838,750 REYG Shares issued in connection with the Debt Conversion (as defined below) were converted into approximately 22,410,407 RSLV Shares. Former REYG Shareholders (excluding any shares issued in connection with the Debt Conversion (as defined below) now hold approximately 10% of the issued and outstanding RSLV Shares and existing RSLV Shareholders now hold approximately 90% of the issued and outstanding RSLV Shares. The new RSLV Shares issued to former REYG Shareholders as the Consideration are expected to be made available by Reyna Silver’s transfer agent to former REYG Shareholder in 3 to 5 business days. Registered shareholders of Reyna Gold that have not yet submitted a letter of transmittal in respect of their REYG Shares should submit their letter of transmittal to the depositary for the Transaction, TSX Trust Company as soon as possible. Copies of the letter of transmittal were included with the Circular (as defined below) and are also available on Reyna Gold’s website at www.reynagold.com.

As part of the Transaction, all outstanding options of Reyna Gold vested immediately and were exchanged for the number of options to purchase RSLV Shares based on the exchange ratio discussed in further detail in the Circular. All replacement options will expire on the earlier of (i) the expiration date of the underlying option for which the replacement option was exchanged and (ii) 12 months from the date of issuance of the replacement option.

As a result of the Transaction, Renya Gold has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reyna Silver. Accordingly, the REYG Shares have been halted from trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”).  Reyna Silver intends to cause the REYG Shares to be delisted from the TSXV and OTCQB and to submit an application to the applicable securities regulators to cease to be a reporting issuer in order to terminate its public company reporting obligations as soon as possible.

The Circular is available on SEDAR+ under Reyna Gold’s profile at www.sedarplus.ca and on Reyna Gold’s website at www.reynagold.com.

Amendment to Gryphon Summit Option Agreement

Reyna Silver and Reyna Gold are also pleased to announce that they have reached an agreement to amend and restate the terms of their option agreement dated August 29, 2023 (the “Original Agreement”) with Golden Gryphon USA Inc. (“Golden Gryphon”) pursuant to which Reyna Gold and Reyna Silver, jointly, had the ability to earn up to a 70% equity interest in the Gryphon Summit Project (the “Project”). The amendments to the Original Agreement were effected by an amended and restated option agreement dated October 24, 2024 among Reyna Gold, Reyna Silver and Golden Gryphon (the “Amended Agreement”).

The Amended Agreement reflects changes resulting from the Transaction and provides that Reyna Silver will assume all of Reyna Gold’s rights and obligations under the Original Agreement. As a result, among other things, Reyna Silver now has the sole ability to earn up to a 70% equity interest in the Project (the “Option”). The Amended Agreement also defers certain cash payments due to Golden Gryphon on October 31, 2024 until January 31, 2025 in exchange for an additional cash payment of $10,000 and the obligation to issue an additional 100,000 RSLV Shares to Golden Gryphon, subject to the policies of and acceptance by the TSXV.

The Amended Agreement and the issuance of common shares of Reyna Silver under the Amended Agreement is conditional on the acceptance of the TSXV. A copy of the Amended Agreement will be filed on Reyna Silver’s SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca

The Debt Conversion

As contemplated in Reyna Gold’s October 11, 2024 news release, immediately prior to the consummation of the Transaction, Reyna Gold issued 838,750 REYG Shares (the “Debt Shares”) to certain directors and officers in exchange for the cancellation of $41,937.50 of outstanding director and management fees (the “Debt Conversion”). The Debt Shares were issued at a deemed price of $0.05, in accordance with the policies of the TSXV. All securities issued pursuant to the Debt Conversion are subject to a statutory four-month and one-day hold period. Pursuant to the Transaction, the Debt Shares issued were converted into common shares of Reyna Silver on the basis of one (1) RSLV Share for every three (3) REYG Shares. After giving effect to the Transaction and the Debt Conversion (and subsequent conversion of the Debt Shares into RSLV Shares), there are currently approximately 222,371,274 outstanding RSLV Shares. The Debt Conversion constituted a “related party transaction” as that term is defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101: Protection of Minority Securityholders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). Reyna Gold relied on the exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the Debt Shares nor the settled debt exceeded 25% of Reyna Gold’s market capitalization.

Resignation and Appointment of Reyna Gold Directors

Following the Transaction, all the directors and officers of Reyna Gold voluntarily agreed to resign from their positions. Jorge Ramiro Monroy, Michael Wood and Alexander Langer have been appointed as the new board of directors of Reyna Gold.

Early Warning Reporting

By virtue of its acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding REYG Shares under the Transaction, Reyna Silver is required to file an early warning report pursuant to National Instrument 62-103 – The Early Warning System and Related Take-Over Bid and Insider Report Issues.
