CEO.CA Chairman's Briefing

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 11, 2024) - Golden Spike Resources Corp. (CSE: GLDS) (OTCQB: GSPRF) (FSE: L5Y) ("Golden Spike" or the "Company") announces a non-brokered private placement financing of up to 5,000,000 non-flow-through units ("NFT Units") at $0.20 per NFT Unit for gross proceeds of up to $1,000,000. Each NFT Unit consists of one common share and one-half of one transferable warrant. Each whole warrant (a "Warrant") is exercisable into one common share at $0.30 per common share for 2 years from closing (the "NFT Private Placement").

The Company received a lead order from Mr. Eric Sprott for the NFT Private Placement. Upon completion of the NFT Private Placement, Mr. Sprott's investment combined with his existing holdings will further increase his equity stake in the Company, currently at 12.3%. The Company deeply appreciates the backing from all of its strategic shareholders and the broader investment community.

In regard to the NFT Private Placement, the Company will pay finder's fees consisting of 6% cash and 6% warrants (with the same terms as the subscribers' Warrants except that the finder's warrants will be non-transferable) on all or a portion of the NFT Private Placement, in accordance with the policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange.

In addition, the Company has entered into an engagement letter with Kernaghan & Partners Ltd. ("Kernaghan") pursuant to which Kernaghan has agreed to act as lead agent and sole bookrunner for a brokered private placement offering in the provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, Quebec, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia of up to 8,000,000 flow-through units (each a "FT Unit") at $0.23 per FT Unit for gross proceeds of up to $1,840,000. Each FT Unit consists of one flow-through common share (a "FT Share") and one-half of one transferrable warrant. Each whole warrant (a "FT Warrant") is exercisable into one non-flow-through common share at $0.33 per common share for 2 years from closing (the "Brokered FT Private Placement"). Each FT Share and each FT Warrant is expected to qualify as a "flow-through share" as defined in s. 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada).

Kernaghan has the option to place up to an additional 800,000 FT Units (being 10% of the Brokered FT Private Placement) for additional proceeds to the Company of up to $184,000. The Company and Kernaghan intend to negotiate a formal agency agreement reflecting the terms of the engagement letter, subject to, among other things, satisfactory completion of the Kernaghan's due diligence investigations.

In regard to the Brokered FT Private Placement, the Company will pay Kernaghan a fee consisting of 6% cash and 6% non-transferable broker warrants, each exercisable to acquire one common share at $0.23 per common share for a period of 36 months.

Proceeds of the Private Placements will be used for Canadian exploration and development of the Company's project in Newfoundland, and for general working capital.

All securities issued and sold under the Private Placements will be subject to a statutory hold period expiring four months and one day from their date of issuance, in accordance with applicable securities laws.
