Forward-Looking Information
This Circular contains "forward-looking statements" or "forward-looking information" within the meaning
of U.S. securities laws and applicable Canadian securities legislation. Forward-looking information is
provided as of the date of this Circular or, in the case of documents incorporated by reference herein, as of
the date of such documents and neither G2 nor G3 intend to, nor do they assume any obligation, to update
this forward-looking information, except as required by law. Generally, forward-looking information can be
identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "plans", "expects" or "does not expect", "is
expected", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate",
or "believes", or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results
"may", "could", "would", "might" or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved".
1
Forward-looking information is based on reasonable assumptions that have been made by G2 as at the date
of such information and is subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause
the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements of G2 to be materially different from those
expressed or implied by such forward-looking information, including but not limited to: the risk of G2 not
obtaining court, Shareholder or stock exchange approvals to proceed with the Arrangement; the risk of
unexpected tax consequences to the Arrangement, the risk of unanticipated material expenditures required by
G2 prior to completion of the Arrangement; risks of the market valuing G2 and G3 in a manner not anticipated
by G2; risks relating to the benefits of the Arrangement not being realized or as anticipated, including G3
being unable to add additional properties to its portfolio and the occurrence of potential dilution at the Non-
Core Assets; risks associated with mineral exploration and development; metal and mineral prices;
availability of capital; accuracy of G2's projections and estimates; interest and exchange rates; competition;
stock price fluctuations; availability of drilling equipment and access; actual results of current exploration
activities; government regulation; political or economic developments; environmental risks; insurance risks;
capital expenditures; operating or technical difficulties in connection with development activities; personnel
relations; the speculative nature of base and precious metal exploration and development including the risks
of diminishing quantities of grades of reserves; contests over title to properties; and changes in project
parameters as plans continue to be refined; the inherent uncertainties regarding cost estimates, changes in
commodity prices, currency fluctuation, financing, unanticipated resource grades, infrastructure, results of
exploration activities, cost overruns, availability of materials and equipment, timeliness of government
approvals, taxation, political risk and related economic risk and unanticipated environmental impact on
operations, global financial conditions; the market price of G2's securities; volatility in market prices for
gold; ability to access capital; changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates; liabilities and
risks inherent in exploration and development, operations; uncertainties associated with estimating mineral
resources and production; uncertainty as to reclamation and decommissioning liabilities; failure to obtain
industry partner and other third party consents and approvals when required; delays in obtaining permits and
licenses for development properties; competition for, among other things, capital, acquisitions of mineral
resources and mineral reserves, undeveloped lands and skilled personnel; public resistance to mining; mining
industry competition and international trade restrictions; incorrect assessments of the value of acquisitions;
property title risk; geological, technical and processing problems; the ability of G2 to meet its obligations to
its creditors; actions taken by regulatory authorities with respect to mining activities; the potential influence
of or reliance upon its business partners, and the adequacy of insurance coverage; as well as those factors
discussed in the sections entitled "G2 Goldfields Inc. Risk Factors" and "G3 Goldfields Inc. Risk Factors"
herein and in the G2 AIF which has been incorporated by reference herein. Other documents incorporated by
reference in the Circular, such as the audited consolidated financial statements of G2 as at and for the financial
years ended May 31, 2025 and 2024 (together with the auditors' report thereon and the notes thereto) and
related management's discussion and analysis for the financial year ended May 31, 2025, as well as the
unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of G2 as at and for the three months ended
August 31, 2025 and 2024 (together with the notes thereto) and related management's discussion and
analysis, each include forward-looking information with respect to, among other things, G2's corporate
development and strategy. Forward-looking information is based on certain assumptions that G2 believes are
reasonable, including that the required shareholder, court and regulatory approvals for the transactions
described in this Circular will be obtained; that the transactions described in this Circular will be completed
as disclosed herein; that the existing directors and officers of G2 and G3 will continue in their respective
capacities as directors and officers of G2 and G3, as applicable; that sufficient working capital will be
available for both G2 and G3; that the G3 Shares will be listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange; that
shareholdings of certain shareholders of G2 will not change prior to the closing of the transactions described
herein; the current price of and demand for commodities will be sustained or will improve, the supply of
commodities will remain stable, that the general business and economic conditions will not change in a
material adverse manner, that financing will be available if and when needed on reasonable terms and that
G2 will not experience any material labour dispute, accident, or failure of plant or equipment and such other
assumptions and factors as set out herein.
2
Although G2 has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be
as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such information will prove to be
accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information.
Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. G2 does not undertake
to update any forward-looking information contained herein or that is incorporated by reference herein, except
in accordance with applicable securities laws.
Notice to U.S. Shareholders
THE G3 SHARES TO BE ISSUED TO G2 SHAREHOLDERS PURSUANT TO THE
ARRANGEMENT HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE UNITED STATES
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE "SEC") OR THE SECURITIES
REGULATORY AUTHORITIES OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES, NOR HAS THE SEC
OR THE SECURITIES AUTHORITIES OF ANY STATE IN THE UNITED STATES PASSED ON
THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS CIRCULAR. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE
CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE.
The pro rata distribution of G3 Shares to G2 Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement is not a "sale" within
the meaning of Section 2(3) of the U.S. Securities Act and SEC Staff Legal Bulletin No. 4 and consequently
the G3 Shares have not been, nor will be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act or the securities laws of
any state of the United States. It is intended that G3 will comply with the provisions of SEC Rule 12g3-2(b)
under the U.S. Exchange Act so that the G3 Shares will also be exempt from registration under the U.S.
Exchange Act.
As a result, the G3 Shares to be received by G2 Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement will be freely
transferable under U.S. federal securities laws except by persons who are "affiliates" (as defined in Rule 405
of the U.S. Securities Act) of G3 after the Effective Date or were "affiliates" of G3 within 90 days prior to
the date of any proposed resale. Persons who may be deemed to be "affiliates" of an issuer include individuals
or entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common control with, the issuer, whether through the
ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise, and generally include executive officers and
directors of the issuer as well as principal shareholders of the issuer. Any resale of such G3 Shares by such
an affiliate (or former affiliate) may be subject to the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act,
absent an exemption therefrom. See "Securities Law Considerations United States Securities Laws and
Resale of Securities".
G2 is a corporation organized and existing under the federal laws of Canada and a "foreign private issuer" as
such term is defined in Rule 405 under the U.S. Securities Act. The solicitation of proxies pursuant to this
Circular is not subject to the requirements of Section 14(a) of the U.S. Exchange Act by virtue of an exemption
applicable to proxy solicitations by foreign private issuers as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the U.S. Exchange
Act. Accordingly, this Circular has been prepared in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Canadian
securities law. Such requirements are different than those of the United States applicable to registration
statements under the U.S. Securities Act and proxy statements under the U.S. Exchange Act. G2 Shareholders
should be aware that requirements under such Canadian laws may differ from requirements under United
States corporate and securities laws. However, in order to comply with conditions of SEC Staff Legal Bulletin
No. 4, this Circular contains information in substantial compliance with Rule 14A under the U.S. Exchange
Act.
The financial statements of G2 incorporated by reference in this Circular have been prepared in accordance
with IFRS, and are subject to Canadian auditing and auditor independence standards. The financial statements
of G3 and the carve-out financial statements for the Non-Core Assets included in this Circular have been
3
prepared in accordance with IFRS, and are subject to Canadian auditing and auditor independence standards.
Therefore, such financial statements may not be comparable to financial statements of United States
corporations.
Shareholders should be aware that the transactions described herein may have tax consequences to
Shareholders who are resident in, or citizens of, the Unites States and such consequences are not described in
this Circular or the materials provided to the Shareholders. Shareholders who are resident in, or citizens of,
the Unites States are advised to consult their own tax advisors to determine the particular United States tax
consequences to them of the Arrangement in light of their particular situation, as well as any tax consequences
that may arise under the laws of any other relevant foreign, state, local or other taxing jurisdiction.
The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under the United States federal securities laws may be
affected adversely by the fact that the parties to the Arrangement are incorporated or organized outside the
United States, that all of its officers and directors and the experts named in this Circular are residents of a
foreign country, and that all of the assets of G2 and such persons are located outside the United States. As a
result, it may be difficult or impossible for G2 Shareholders in the United States to effect service of process
within the United States upon G2, its officers or directors or the experts named herein, or to realize against
them upon judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon civil liabilities under the federal securities
laws of the United States or "blue sky" laws of any state within the United States. In addition, Shareholders
in the United States should not assume that the courts of Canada: (i) would enforce judgments of United
States courts obtained in actions against such persons predicated upon civil liabilities under the federal
securities laws of the United States or "blue sky" laws of any state within the United States; or (ii) would
enforce, in original actions, liabilities against such persons predicated upon civil liabilities under the federal
securities laws of the United States or "blue sky" laws of any state within the United States.
This Circular has been prepared solely in accordance with disclosure requirements applicable in Canada.
Shareholders in the United States should be aware that such requirements are different from those of the
United States applicable to registration statements under the U.S. Securities Act and proxy statements under
the U.S. Exchange Act.
Without limiting the forgoing, information concerning the mineral properties of G2 and G3 has been prepared
in accordance with the requirements of Canadian securities laws, which differ in material respects from the
requirements of securities laws of the United States. These standards differ from the disclosure requirements
of the SEC, and mineral reserve and mineral resource information contained and incorporated by reference
herein may not be comparable to similar information disclosed in accordance with the rules and regulations
promulgated by the SEC.

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES BY MANAGEMENT
This Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the management of G2 Goldfields Inc. of
proxies to be used at the annual general and special meeting of the Shareholders to be held on
November 27, 2025 at the time and place and for the purposes set out in the accompanying Notice of Meeting.
It is expected that the solicitation will be made primarily by mail. However, officers and employees of the
Company may also solicit proxies by telephone, e-mail or in person. These persons will receive no
compensation for such solicitation, other than their ordinary salaries or fees. The total cost of solicitation of
proxies will be borne by the Company. Pursuant to NI 54-101, arrangements have been made with clearing
agencies, brokerage houses and other financial intermediaries to forward proxy-related materials to the
beneficial owners of the G2 Shares. See "Appointment and Revocation of Proxies Notice to Beneficial
Holders of Shares" below. The Company will provide, without cost to such person, upon request to the
Corporate Secretary of the Company, additional copies of the foregoing documents for this purpose. The
information contained herein is given as of October 23, 2025, unless indicated otherwise.
APPOINTMENT AND REVOCATION OF PROXIES
Appointment of Proxy
A Shareholder who does not plan on attending the Meeting in person is requested to complete and sign the
enclosed form of proxy and to deliver it to TSX Trust Company: (i) by mail to 301 100 Adelaide Street
West, Toronto, Ontario M5H 4H1; or (ii) by facsimile at 416.595.9593; or (iii) online at
www.voteproxyonline.com. Shareholders requiring assistance can contact TSX Trust by e-mail at
tsxtis@tmx.com, or by telephone at 1.866.600.5869. In order to be valid and acted upon at the Meeting, the
form of proxy must be received no later than 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on November 25, 2025 or be deposited
with the Corporate Secretary of the Company before the commencement of the Meeting or any adjournment
thereof. The deadline for the deposit of proxies may be waived or extended by the Chair of the Meeting at his
discretion, without notice.
If you are a Beneficial Shareholder and have received these materials through your broker, custodian, nominee
or other intermediary, please complete and return the form of proxy or voting instruction form provided to
you by your broker, custodian, nominee or other intermediary in accordance with the instructions provided
therein.
The document appointing a proxy must be in writing and executed by the Shareholder or the Shareholder's
attorney authorized in writing or, if the Shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal or by an officer
or attorney thereof duly authorized.
A Shareholder submitting a form of proxy has the right to appoint a person (who need not be a Shareholder)
to represent such Shareholder at the Meeting other than the persons designated in the form of proxy furnished
by the Company. To exercise that right, the name of the Shareholder's appointee should be legibly printed in
the blank space provided. In addition, the Shareholder should notify the appointee of the appointment, obtain
such appointee's consent to act as appointee and instruct the appointee on how the Shareholder's G2 Shares
are to be voted.
Shareholders who are not Registered Shareholders of the Company should refer to "Notice to Beneficial
Holders of G2 Shares" below.
12
Revocation of Proxy
A Shareholder who has submitted a form of proxy as directed hereunder may revoke it at any time prior to
the exercise thereof. If a person who has given a proxy personally attends the Meeting at which that proxy is
to be voted, that person may revoke the proxy and vote in person. In addition to the revocation in any other
manner permitted by law, a proxy may be revoked by instrument in writing executed by the Shareholder or
the Shareholder's attorney or authorized agent and deposited with TSX Trust Company at any time up to
10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on November 25, 2025: (i) by mail to Suite 301 100 Adelaide Street West,
Toronto, Ontario M5H 4H1; or, (ii) by facsimile to 416.595.9593, or deposited with the Corporate Secretary
of the Company before the commencement of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof, and upon either of
those deposits, the proxy will be revoked. Shareholders requiring assistance can contact TSX Trust by e-mail
at tsxtis@tmx.com, or by telephone at 1.866.600.5869.
Notice to Beneficial Holders of G2 Shares
The information set out in this section is of importance to many Shareholders, as a substantial number of
Shareholders do not hold G2 Shares in their own name. Shareholders who do not hold their G2 Shares in their
own name (referred to herein as "Beneficial Shareholders") should note that only proxies deposited by
Shareholders whose names appear on the records of the Company as the registered holders of shares can be
recognized and acted upon at the Meeting or any adjournment(s) thereof. If G2 Shares are listed in an account
statement provided to a Shareholder by a broker, then in almost all cases those G2 Shares will not be registered
in the Shareholder's name in the records of the Company. Those G2 Shares will most likely be registered
under the name of the Shareholder's broker or an agent of that broker. In Canada, the vast majority of such
shares are registered under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for CDS Clearing and Depository
Services Inc., which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms). G2 Shares held by brokers or their
nominees can be voted (for or against resolutions or withheld from voting) only upon the instructions of the
Beneficial Shareholder. Without specific instructions, the broker/nominees are prohibited from voting shares
for their clients. Subject to the following discussion in relation to NOBOs (as defined below), the Company
does not know for whose benefit the G2 Shares registered in the name of CDS & Co., a broker or another
nominee, are held.
There are two categories of Beneficial Shareholders under applicable securities regulations for purposes of
dissemination to Beneficial Shareholders of proxy-related materials and other security holder materials and
requests for voting instructions from such Beneficial Shareholders. Non-objecting beneficial owners
("NOBOs") are Beneficial Shareholders who have advised their intermediary (such as brokers or other
nominees) that they do not object to their intermediary disclosing ownership information to the Company,
consisting of their name, address, e-mail address, securities holdings and preferred language of
communication. Canadian securities law restricts the use of that information to matters strictly relating to the
affairs of the Company. Objecting beneficial owners ("OBOs") are Beneficial Shareholders who have advised
their intermediary that they object to their intermediary disclosing such ownership information to the
Company.
In accordance with the requirements of NI 54-101, the Company is sending the Meeting Materials indirectly
to Beneficial Shareholders. NI 54-101 allows the Company, in its discretion, to obtain a list of its NOBOs
from intermediaries and to use such NOBO list for the purpose of distributing the proxy materials directly to,
and seek voting instructions directly from, such NOBOs. As a result, the Company is entitled to deliver
Meeting Materials to Beneficial Shareholders in two manners: (a) directly to NOBOs and indirectly through
intermediaries to OBOs; or (b) indirectly to all Beneficial Shareholders through intermediaries. The Company
intends to pay for intermediaries to deliver the Meeting Materials to the OBOs.
13
Applicable securities regulations require intermediaries, on receipt of Meeting Materials that seek voting
instructions from Beneficial Shareholders indirectly, to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders
in advance of Shareholder meetings on Form 54-101F7. Every intermediary/broker has its own mailing
procedures and provides its own return instructions, which should be carefully followed by Beneficial
Shareholders in order to ensure that their G2 Shares are voted at the Meeting or any adjournment(s) thereof.
Often, the form of proxy supplied to a Beneficial Shareholder by its broker is identical to the form of proxy
provided to Registered Shareholders; however, its purpose is limited to instructing the Registered Shareholder
how to vote on behalf of the Beneficial Shareholder. Beneficial Shareholders who wish to appear in person
and vote at the Meeting should be appointed as their own representatives at the Meeting in accordance with
the directions of their intermediaries and Form 54-101F7. Beneficial Shareholders can also write the name of
someone else whom they wish to appoint to attend the Meeting and vote on their behalf. Unless prohibited
by law, the person whose name is written in the space provided in Form 54-101F7 will have full authority to
present matters to the Meeting and vote on all matters that are presented at the Meeting, even if those matters
are not set out in Form 54-101F7 or this Circular. The majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for
obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. ("Broadridge") in Canada.
Broadridge typically mails a voting instruction form in lieu of a form of proxy. Beneficial Shareholders are
requested to complete and return the voting instruction form to Broadridge by mail or facsimile. Alternatively,
Beneficial Shareholders can call a toll-free telephone number to vote the shares held by them or access
Broadridge's dedicated voting website to deliver their voting instructions. Broadridge will then provide
aggregate voting instructions to the Company's transfer agent and registrar, which will tabulate the results
and provide appropriate instructions respecting the voting of G2 Shares to be represented at the Meeting or
any adjournment thereof.
All references to Shareholders in this Circular, instrument of proxy and Notice of Meeting are to Registered
Shareholders of the Company unless specifically stated otherwise.
Voting
G2 Shares represented by any properly executed proxy in the accompanying form will be voted for or against,
or withheld from voting, as the case may be, on any ballot that may be called for in accordance with the
instructions given by the Shareholder. In the absence of such direction, such G2 Shares will be voted in favour
of the matters set out herein. The accompanying form of proxy confers discretionary authority on the persons
named in it with respect to amendments or variations to matters identified in the Notice of Meeting or other
matters that may properly come before the Meeting. As of the date hereof, management of the Company is
not aware of any such amendments, variations or other matters which may come before the Meeting. In the
event that other matters come before the Meeting, then the management designees intend to vote in
accordance with the judgment of management of the Company.
INTERESTS OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON
No person who has been a director or executive officer of the Company at any time since the commencement
of the last completed fiscal year of the Company ended May 31, 2025, no Nominee (as defined below) for
election as a director of the Company, and no associate or affiliate of any of the foregoing persons, has any
material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in any matter
to be acted upon at the Meeting other than (i) each proposed Nominee in connection with the election of
directors; (ii) Mr. J. Patrick Sheridan having an interest in the Control Person Resolution and his votes will
be excluded therefrom; and (iii) certain directors and executive officers of G2 having an interest in the
resolution regarding the approval of the G3 Option Plan and the G3 RSU Plan as such persons will be eligible
to participate in such plan as directors and executive officers of G3. See "Particulars of Matters to be Acted
Upon Election of Directors", "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon Creation of New Control Person",
14
"Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon G3 Stock Option Plan" and "Particulars of Matters to be Acted
Upon G3 RSU Plan".
VOTING SHARES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF
Each holder of G2 Shares of record at the close of business on October 21, 2025 (the Record Date for the
Meeting) will be entitled to vote at the Meeting or at any adjournment thereof, either in person or by proxy.
As of the Record Date, the Company had 257,009,835 G2 Shares issued and outstanding. Each G2 Share
carries the right to one vote per share. The outstanding G2 Shares are listed on the TSX under the symbol
"GTWO".
To the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of the Company as of the Record Date, no person
beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, or exercises control or direction over 10% or more of the outstanding
G2 Shares, other than as set forth below.

from the System for Electronic Disclosure by Insiders (SEDI) or alternative monthly reports filed by the shareholder under G2's
profile on SEDAR+, as applicable. G2 has not independently confirmed this information.
STATEMENT OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Set forth below is the Company's executive compensation summary for the year ended May 31, 2025 prepared
in accordance with Form 51-102F6 Statement of Executive Compensation.

only NEOs during the financial year ended May 31, 2025.
Objectives
The Company's policies on compensation for its directors and Named Executive Officers are intended to
provide appropriate compensation for executives that is internally equitable, externally competitive and
reflects individual achievements in the context of the Company. The overall objectives of the Company's
compensation program include: (a) attracting and retaining talented executive officers who can assist with the
Company's exploration strategy; (b) aligning the interests of those executive officers with those of the
Company; and (c) linking individual executive officer compensation to the performance of the Company. The
Company's compensation program is currently designed to compensate executive officers for performance
of their duties and to reward them for the Company's performance.
The Company's compensation program is designed to reward such matters as exploration success, market
success, and the ability to implement strategic plans. The current overall objectives of the Company's
compensation strategy are to reward management for their efforts while seeking to conserve cash given
current market conditions. With respect to any bonuses or incentive plan grants which may be awarded to
executive officers in the future, the Company has not currently set any objective criteria and will instead rely
upon any recommendations and discussion at the Board level with respect to these and any other matters
which the Board may consider relevant on a going-forward basis, including the cash position of the Company.
The Board is responsible for ensuring that the application of the compensation policy is appropriately aligned
to support its stated objectives and encourage the right management behaviours, while avoiding excessive
risk-taking by executive officers.
Methods for Determining Compensation
The Board has established a Governance, Nominating & Compensation Committee (the "Compensation
Committee"). The Compensation Committee reviews the compensation payable to the Named Executive
Officers and directors annually, or periodically if needed, and makes recommendations to the Board.
In the performance of its duties, the Compensation Committee is guided by the following principles:
dot establishing sound corporate governance practices that are in the interests of Shareholders and that
contribute to effective and efficient decision-making;
dot offering competitive compensation to attract, retain and motivate the very best qualified executives
in order for the Company to meet its goals; and
dot acting in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders by being fiscally responsible.
Elements of Compensation for NEOs
In accordance with the applicable policies of the Company in place from time to time, the elements of
compensation to be awarded to, earned by, paid to, or payable to the Company's Executive Chairman,
President and Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Operating Officer are: (a) base salary; (b) target annual
bonus; (c) option-based awards; (d) perquisites and personal benefits; and (e) termination and change of
control benefits. Base salary is a fixed element of compensation payable to the Company's Executive
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Operating Officer for performing their positions'
specific duties. The amount of base salary for the Company's Executive Chairman, President and Chief
Executive Officer, and Chief Operating Officer was historically determined through negotiation of
16
employment agreements. While base salary is intended to fit into the Company's overall compensation
objectives by serving to attract and retain talented executive officers, the size of the Company and the nature
and stage of its business also impact the level of base salary. To date, the level of base salary has not impacted
the Company's decisions about any other element of the compensation of the Executive Chairman, President
and Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Operating Officer.
In accordance with the applicable policies of the Company in place from time to time, the elements of
compensation to be awarded to, earned by, paid to, or payable to the Chief Financial Officer are: (a) a flat fee
for services performed; and (b) option-based awards. The amount of compensation payable to the Chief
Financial Officer was determined by negotiation between the Chief Financial Officer and the Company and
takes into account the part-time nature of his services to the Company. While fees earned are intended to fit
into the Company's overall compensation objectives by serving to attract and retain talented executive
officers, the size of the Company and the nature and stage of its business also impact the amount of fees
payable to the Company's Chief Financial Officer. To date, the level of fees earned has not impacted the
Company's decisions about any other element of the Chief Financial Officer's compensation.
Bonuses are short-term performance based financial incentives that are determined through the compensation
review process, which includes an assessment of the performance of the executive officer, and is subject to
criteria established by the Board.
The Company may from time to time provide basic perquisites and personal benefits to its executive officers.
While perquisites and personal benefits are intended to fit the Company's overall compensation objectives
by serving to attract and retain talented executive officers, the size of the Company and the nature and stage
of its business also impact the level of perquisites and benefits. To date, the level of perquisites and benefits
has not impacted the Company's decisions about any other element of compensation.
The compensation to each Named Executive Officer is based on the position held, the related responsibilities
and functions performed by the executive. The compensation is designed to be competitive and motivating,
commensurate with the time spent by executive officers in meeting their obligations and reflective of
compensation paid by companies similar in size, stage and business to the Company. Individual and corporate
performance are also taken into account in determining base salary levels for executives. The Board also
relies on its collective experience when assessing compensation levels.
In making its determinations regarding the various elements of executive compensation, the Board does not
currently benchmark its executive compensation program, but from time to time does review compensation
practices of companies of similar size and stage of development in the sector to ensure the compensation paid
is competitive within the Company's industry and geographic location while taking into account the financial
and other resources of the Company.
In light of the Company's size and limited elements of executive compensation, which is comprised of cash-
based and share-based compensation, the Board does not deem it necessary to consider at this time the
implications of the risks associated with its compensation policies and practices.
Elements of Compensation for Directors
The Company has no standard arrangement pursuant to which directors are compensated by the Company for
their services in their capacity as a directors, except for director's fees paid at the discretion of the Board, and
the grant, from time to time, of stock options in accordance with the terms of the Option Plan.

Financial Instruments
The Company has not, as yet, adopted a policy restricting its Named Executive Officers or directors from
purchasing instruments, including, for greater certainty, prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps,
collars, or units of exchange funds, that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity
securities granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by Named Executive Officers or directors.
Performance Graph
The following graph compares the percentage change in the cumulative total return on the G2 Shares with
the cumulative total return of the S&P/TSX Composite Index for the years ended May 31, 2021 through
May 31, 2025 assuming a $100 investment in G2 Shares on May 31, 2020.
The cumulative total shareholder return for the G2 Shares totaled 513% over the past five years, compared
with a cumulative total shareholder return of 200% on the S&P/TSX Composite Index over the same period.
This is mainly due to the Company's successful exploration efforts at its Oko Gold Project in Guyana as the
Company continues to advance the mineral resource estimate as well as financing milestones.
In light of the Company's size and focus on mineral exploration in an emerging market jurisdiction, the price
of the G2 Shares is subject to significant volatility and fluctuations, and as such, the Board and the
Compensation Committee have not historically considered the Company's share price as a key performance
indicator in determining the compensation of Named Executive Officers. The Board and the Compensation
Committee believe that the Company's current compensation policies are aligned with the best interests of
the Company in rewarding executive officers for the Company's exploration, market and financing success
and balanced with efficient cash management to facilitate continuing exploration, strategic initiatives and the
ongoing success of the Company. The Compensation Committee reviews the compensation policies for the
NEOs yearly and may adjust the weighting given to share price performance in alignment with corporate
objectives in the future.
Share-Based and Option-Based Awards
Option-based awards serve to attract talented executives and will be used as a variable element of
compensation that rewards each of the Company's Named Executive Officers for performance of the
18
Company. Option-based awards are intended to fit into the Company's overall compensation objectives by
aligning the interests of the Company's Named Executive Officers with those of the Company and linking
individual compensation to the performance of the Company. The Board will be responsible for setting and
amending any equity incentive plan under which an option-based award is granted. The Company has in place
the Option Plan for the benefit of eligible directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company and
its designated affiliates, including the Company's Named Executive Officers. To date, the options granted
under the Option Plan have not impacted the Company's decisions about any other element of compensation.
The standard vesting provisions of options are for one-third of the options to vest six months from the date
of grant, an additional one-third to vest 12 months from the date of grant and the final one-third to vest 18
months from the date of grant.
Existing options held by the Named Executive Officers at the time of option grants are taken into
consideration in determining any such subsequent option grants. Options have been granted to directors,
management, employees and certain service providers as long-term incentives to align the individual's
interests with those of the Company. The size of the option awards is in proportion to the deemed ability of
the individual to make an impact on the Company's success.
RSUs may be awarded to the Named Executive Officers as a retention incentive and as incentive to align the
goals of management with those of the Shareholders. The number of RSUs held by the Named Executive
Officers at the time of the grant is taken into consideration in determining any subsequent grants of RSUs.
Compensation Governance
The Compensation Committee has a written charter and its primary function is to assist the Board in fulfilling
its responsibilities relating to: (i) the recruitment, compensation and performance evaluation of the CEO and
other executive officers of the Company; and (ii) the development of the Company's compensation structure
for the CEO, other executive officers of the Company and non-management directors. The Compensation
Committee is responsible for, among other things, assessing and making recommendations to the Board with
respect to the compensation (including long-term incentive in the form of stock options) to be granted to the
Company's executive officers and directors to ensure that such compensation reflects the responsibilities and
risks associated with each position.
The Compensation Committee is comprised of three directors, namely Ms. Diges and Messrs. Rosenberg and
Stow, each of whom is an independent director. The Compensation Committee will continue to be comprised
as such following the Meeting. Each member of the Compensation Committee has been a director or senior
officer of a publicly traded company which involved acting in a supervisory capacity and based on that
experience is in a good position to analyze and review compensation rewards for the Company's Named
Executive Officers.
In July 2024, G2 retained Southlea Group as an independent compensation consultant to provide an
independent executive compensation assessment and advice to the Compensation Committee on the
Company's executive compensation program. As part of its engagement, Southlea Group developed a
compensation peer group for the Company, and, based on the peer group, benchmarked (a) executive
management cash compensation, including base salary and annual bonus/short-term incentives plan
eligibility; and (b) executive management long-term incentive plan awards, and total compensation.
Following the Compensation Committee's review of the report by Southlea Group, the Compensation
Committee determined it was in the best interests of the Company to amend the compensation and
remuneration terms of the Executive Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Operating
Officer to be more in line with those of the companies in G2's peer group, and the Company entered into new
employment agreements with such NEOs on December 17, 2024. The terms of such employment agreements
were applied towards the NEOs' compensation for the year ended May 31, 2025, other than in respect of the
19
signing bonus (see "NEO Employment and Consulting Agreements" below), which was applied retroactively
in respect of the NEO's performance in the year ended May 31, 2024 (see "Summary Compensation Table"
below).
Southlea Group received $25,000 in total fees during the year ended May 31, 2025, comprised of:

Notes:
(1) The "grant date fair value" of Options has been determined by using the Black-Scholes model. The Company has calculated the
"grant date fair value" amounts for option values using the Black-Scholes model, a mathematical valuation model that ascribes
a value to a stock option based on a number of factors in valuing the option-based awards, including the exercise price of the
option, the price of the underlying security on the date the option was granted and assumptions with respect to the volatility of
the price of the underlying security and the risk-free rate of return. The grant date fair value of the Options was estimated using
the Black-Scholes valuation model with a three year expected term; expected volatility of 56.47% to 57.81% in the year ended
May 31, 2025 (62.76% in the year ended May 31, 2024 and 88.68% to 93.42% in the year ended May 31, 2023), risk free interest
rate of 2.95% to 3.17% in the year ended May 31, 2025 (4.22% in the year ended May 31, 2024 and 3.97% to 4.10% in the year
ended May 31, 2023), and a dividend yield of 0%. The assumptions used in the pricing model are highly subjective and can
materially affect the estimated fair value. Calculating the value of options using this methodology is very different from a simple
"in-the-money" value calculation. In fact, options that are out-of-the-money can still have a significant "grant date fair value"
based on a Black-Scholes valuation, especially where, as in the case of the Company, the price of the shares underlying the
option is highly volatile. Accordingly, caution must be exercised in comparing grant date fair value amounts with cash
compensation or an in-the-money option value calculation.

(3) Fees were paid to Marrelli Support Services (as defined below) pursuant to the Marrelli Agreements (as defined below). See

multiplied by the number of months remaining in the initial term. If the Marrelli 2023 Agreement is
terminated by the Company following the initial term or by Marrelli Support Services on 10 calendar days'
23
notice in the circumstances specified in the Marrelli 2023 Agreement, the Company will be required to pay a
one-time termination fee equal to the monthly fee then in effect multiplied by three.

Summary of the Option Plan
The Option Plan was last approved by Shareholders on November 23, 2023. The Option Plan, which initially
conformed with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange, was effective on October 24, 2022 and
amendments to the Option Plan to conform with the policies of the TSX were approved by the Board on
April 2, 2024 in connection with the Company's graduation from the TSX Venture Exchange to the TSX in
April 2024 (such amendments to the Option Plan as described in this section, the "TSX Graduation
Amendments"). Shareholder approval was not required in connection with the TSX Graduation Amendments
in accordance with the terms of the Option Plan and the policies of the TSX.
The following is a summary of the material terms of the Option Plan, which is qualified in its entirety by the
full text of the Option Plan.
Purpose
The purpose of the Option Plan is to promote the Company's profitability and growth by facilitating the
efforts of the Company and its subsidiaries to obtain and retain key individuals. The Option Plan provides an
incentive for, and encourages ownership of G2 Shares by, its key individuals so that they may increase their
stake in the Company and benefit from increases in the value of the G2 Shares.
Administration
The Option Plan is administered by the Board or a designee committee of the Board, which has full authority
to grant stock options thereunder and take all other actions necessary or advisable for the implementation and
administration of the Option Plan, subject to the requirements of the TSX and the terms of the Option Plan.
Eligibility
The Option Plan allows the Company to grant Options to attract, retain and motivate qualified directors,
officers, employees and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries.
The Option Plan allows the Board to grant Options to directors and senior officers of the Company and its
subsidiaries, employees and management company employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, and
consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Eligible Persons"). The Board has full
26
and final authority to determine the Eligible Persons who are to be granted Options under the Option Plan
and the number of G2 Shares subject to each Option.
Number of Shares Issuable
Subject to adjustments in certain specified circumstances, as provided for in the Option Plan, the aggregate
number of G2 Shares that may be issued and sold under the Option Plan may not exceed 10% of the aggregate
number of G2 Shares issued and outstanding, calculated as at the date of any Option grant from time to time.
Options that are exercised, cancelled or expire prior to exercise become available again for issuance under
the Option Plan.
Specific details of the awards outstanding under the Option Plan and in relation to the RSU Plan discussed
below are as follows:
As at May 31, 2025 As at Date of Circular

Remaining 438,904(1) 0.2% 2,929,783 1.1%
Options/RSUs
Note:
(1) The maximum number of G2 Shares issuable under the RSU Plan is subject the lesser of (a) 7,300,000 G2 Shares and (b) such
number of G2 Shares, when combined with all other G2 Shares subject to grants made under the Company's other share
compensation arrangements (pre-existing or otherwise, and including the Option Plan), as is equal to 10% of the aggregate
number of G2 Shares issued and outstanding from time to time.
Limits on Participation
In connection with the TSX Graduation Amendments, the Option Plan provides that, subject to the G2 Shares
being listed for trading on the TSX, the aggregate number of G2 Shares (i) issued to insiders within any one-
year period, and (ii) issuable to insiders, at any time, pursuant to the Option Plan, or when combined with all
other share-based compensation arrangements, shall not exceed in the aggregate 10% of the number of G2
Shares then outstanding on a non-diluted basis immediately prior to the proposed Option grant.
The TSX Graduation Amendments removed participation limits previously in place for consultants and
investor relations consultants, which limits were required by the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange and
not required under the policies of the TSX.
Term of Options
Options granted under the Option Plan are exercisable as determined by the Board at the time of grant,
provided however, that stock options may not be granted for a term exceeding ten years (subject to extension
where the expiry date falls within a Black-Out Period).
27
The Option Plan provides that, in the event that the expiry date for an Option falls within a period of time
when, pursuant to any policies of the Company (including the Company's insider trading policy), any
securities of the Company may not be traded by certain persons designated by the Company (such period, a
"Black-Out Period"), the expiry date of such Option will be automatically extended to the 10th business day
following the expiry of such Black-Out Period.
Exercise Price
The exercise price for the G2 Shares issuable for each Option shall be determined by the Board on the basis
of the market price of the G2 Shares on the stock exchange or dealing network on which the G2 Share trade,
all as specified in the Option Plan. In the event the G2 Shares are not listed on any exchange and do not trade
on any dealing network, the market price will be determined by the Committee.
The exercise price of Options granted to insiders of the Company may not be decreased without disinterested
Shareholder approval at the time of the proposed amendment.
The TSX Graduation Amendments removed the provision that in the event the G2 Shares were listed on the
TSXV, the exercise price could be as determined under the policies of the TSXV, subject to a minimum price
of $0.10.
Manner of Exercise and Cashless Exercise
Subject to the provisions of the Option Plan and the particular Option, an Option may be exercised from time
to time by delivering to the Company at its registered office a written notice of exercise specifying the number
of G2 Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised and accompanied by payment in cash or
certified cheque for the full amount of the exercise price of the G2 Shares then being purchased.
The Board may, in its discretion and at any time, determine to grant an optionee the alternative to deal with
such Option on a "cashless exercise" basis, on such terms as the Board may determine in its discretion (the
"Cashless Exercise Right"). Without limitation, the Board may determine in its discretion that such Cashless
Exercise Right, if any, grants an optionee the right to terminate such Option in whole or in part by notice in
writing to the Company and in lieu of receiving G2 Shares pursuant to the exercise of the Option, receive,
without payment of any cash other than as provided for in the Option Plan:
(i) that number of G2 Shares, disregarding fractions, which when multiplied by the market value (as
such term is defined in the Option Plan) on the day immediately prior to the exercise of the
Cashless Exercise Right, have a total value equal to the product of that number of G2 Shares
subject to the Option multiplied by the difference between the market value on the day
immediately prior to the exercise of the Cashless Exercise Right and the exercise price; or
(ii) a cash payment equal to the difference between the market value on the day immediately prior to
the date of the exercise of the Cashless Exercise Right, and the exercise price, less applicable
withholding taxes as determined and calculated by the Company, excluding fractions.
Vesting
Under the Option Plan, Options issued may vest at the discretion of the Board.
The TSX Graduation Amendments removed certain vesting restrictions in respect of Options granted to
investor relations consultants, which restrictions were required by the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange
and not required under the policies of the TSX.
28
Cessation of Provision of Services and Death
The following describes the impact of certain events that may lead to the early expiry of Options granted
under the Option Plan:
(i) Cessation of Services: Subject to the provisions of the Option Plan dealing with the treatment of
Options upon the death of an optionee as described in paragraph (ii) below, if any optionee ceases
to be an Eligible Person for any reason (whether or not for cause) the optionee may exercise the
Option, but only within the period of 90 days, next succeeding such cessation (unless either such
90-day period is extended by the Board, up to a maximum of 12 months from the date of such
cessation), and in no event after the expiry date of the Option, exercise the stock option. The TSX
Graduation Amendments removed the exercise period for optionees who cease to be investor
relations consultants, as the concept was specific to issuers listed on the TSX Venture Exchange.
(ii) Death: In the event of an optionee's death during the currency of the optionee's Option, the
Option shall be exercisable within the 12-month period next succeeding the optionee's death and
in no event after the expiry date of the Option.
Assignability
An Option granted under the Option Plan is non-assignable and non-transferrable by an optionee otherwise
than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and such Option is exercisable, during an optionee's
lifetime, only by the optionee.
Amendments
Subject to any necessary regulatory approvals, the Board may from time to time amend or revise the terms of
the Option Plan (or any stock option granted thereunder) or may terminate the Option Plan (or any stock
option granted thereunder) at any time, provided however, that no such action shall, without the consent of
the optionee, in any manner adversely affect an optionee's rights under any stock option theretofore granted
under, or governed by, the Option Plan.
To the extent required by applicable law or by the policies of the stock exchange on which the G2 Shares
trade (if applicable) at the relevant time, Shareholder approval (as required by such policies) and approval of
such stock exchange, as applicable, will be required for, among other items, amendments to the following
items:
(i) persons eligible to be granted or issued Options under the Option Plan;
(ii) the maximum number or percentage of G2 Shares that may be issuable under the Option Plan;
(iii) the limits under the Option Plan on the number of Options that may be granted or issued to any
one person or any category of persons, including the insider participation limit (such reference to
the insider participation limit was added as part of the TSX Graduation Amendments);
(iv) the maximum term of any Options;
(v) the expiry and termination provisions applicable to any Options; and
(vi) any method or formula for calculating prices, values or amounts under the Option Plan that may
result in a benefit to an optionee.
29
Amendments to the following items do not require Shareholder approval:
(i) amendments to fix typographical errors;
(ii) amendments to clarify existing provisions of the Option Plan that do not have the effect of altering
the scope, nature and intent of such provisions.
Disinterested Shareholder approval is required for any amendments to Options held by insiders which result
in a benefit to such insider, including a reduction in the exercise price of such Option or any extension to the
term of such Option is the optionee is an insider of the Company at the time of the proposed amendment.
Burn Rate
The Option Plan burn rate for each of the three most recently completed fiscal years is set out below:
Year End Options Granted Weighted Average Burn Rate(1)
Shares Outstanding
May 31, 2025 12,315,000 234,613,349 5.2%
May 31, 2024 5,325,000 193,056,621 2.8%
May 31, 2023 7,450,000 165,029,080 4.5%
Note:
(1) The annual burn rate is expressed as a percentage and is calculated by dividing the number of securities granted under the Option
Plan by the weighted average number of securities outstanding for the applicable fiscal year.
Summary of the RSU Plan
On October 22, 2019, the Board approved the adoption of the RSU Plan, which was subsequently approved
by Shareholders on November 29, 2019. Amendments to the RSU Plan to conform with the policies of the
TSX were approved by the Board on April 2, 2024 in connection with the Company's graduation from the
TSX Venture Exchange to the TSX in April 2024 (such amendments to the RSU Plan as described in this
section, the "TSX Graduation Amendments"). Shareholder approval was not required in connection with
the TSX Graduation Amendments in accordance with the terms of the RSU Plan and the policies of the TSX.
The following is a summary of the material terms of the RSU Plan, which is qualified in its entirety by the
full text of the RSU Plan.
Purpose, Eligibility & Administration
The Board determined that it is desirable to have a wide range of incentive plans including the RSU Plan in
place to attract, retain and motivate employees, directors and consultants of the Company. The RSU Plan
provides for the grant of RSUs to specified service providers of the Company as set forth therein (each, an
"RSU Eligible Person").
The RSU Plan is administered by the Board, which has the authority to delegate all of its powers and authority
under the RSU Plan to the Compensation Committee or to another committee of the Board of Directors. The
RSUs are settled through the issuance of G2 Shares.
The purpose of the RSU Plan is to allow for certain discretionary awards as an incentive for selected RSU
Eligible Persons related to the achievement of long-term financial and strategic objectives of the Company
and the resulting increases in shareholder value. The RSU Plan is intended to promote a greater alignment of
interests between Shareholders and the selected RSU Eligible Persons by providing an opportunity to
participate in increases in the value of the Company.
30
Number of Shares Issuable
The maximum number of G2 Shares issuable under the RSU Plan is the lesser of (a) 7,300,000 G2 Shares;
and (b) such number of G2 Shares, when combined with all other G2 Shares subject to grants made under the
Company's other share compensation arrangements (pre-existing or otherwise, and including the Option
Plan), as is equal to 10% of the aggregate number of G2 Shares issued and outstanding from time to time.
See "Summary of the Option Plan Number of Shares Issuable" above for specific details of the awards
outstanding under the RSU Plan and in relation to the Option Plan discussed above.
Limits on Participation
In connection with the TSX Graduation Amendments, the Option Plan provides that the aggregate number of
G2 Shares (i) issued to insiders of the Company within any one-year period, and (ii) issuable to insiders of
the Company at any time pursuant to the RSU Plan, or when combined with all of the Company's share
compensation arrangements (including the Option Plan), shall not exceed in the aggregate 10% of the then
issued and outstanding G2 Shares on a non-diluted basis immediately prior to the proposed grant date.
The TSX Graduation Amendments removed participation limits previously in place in respect of any one
individual and consultants, which limits were required by the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange and not
required under the policies of the TSX.
Vesting and Settlement of RSUs
RSUs are akin to "phantom shares" that track the value of the underlying G2 Shares but do not entitle the
recipient to the actual underlying G2 Shares until maturity and upon satisfaction of any applicable vesting
requirements. The RSU Plan permits the Board to grant awards of RSUs to RSU Eligible Persons upon such
vesting conditions and subject to such maturity dates as the Board may determine. In the event of a change
of control of the Company, all unvested RSUs will automatically vest.
An RSU grantee may elect to defer the receipt of all or any part of their G2 Shares following the applicable
maturity date until a deferred payment date specified in accordance with the terms of the RSU Plan. Subject
to any vesting restrictions, RSUs will be settled by way of the issuance of G2 Shares from treasury on a one-
for-one basis as soon as practicable following the relevant maturity date or deferred payment date, if
applicable, or as otherwise may be determined by the Board or specified in the RSU Plan.
Cessation of Provision of Services and Death
Subject to the Board determining otherwise within the limitations of the RSU Plan, in the event of the
retirement, death or disability of an RSU grantee, any unvested RSUs held by such person will automatically
vest and the underlying G2 Shares will be issued as soon as practicable thereafter. In the event of a termination
without cause (as determined in accordance with the RSU Plan) of an RSU grantee, any unvested RSUs of
such grantee will vest in accordance with their normal vesting schedule, unless the Board determines
otherwise within the limitations of the RSU Plan, provided however in no event shall the maturity date of any
such RSUs be extended beyond the date which is twelve months following the termination without cause.
In the event of a termination with cause or resignation of an RSU grantee (each as determined in accordance
with the RSU Plan), all of such grantee's RSUs that have not yet vested shall become void, unless the Board
determines otherwise within the limitations of the RSU Plan, provided however in no event shall the maturity
date of any such RSUs be extended beyond the date which is twelve months following the termination with
cause or the resignation, as applicable.
31
Assignability
Except by a will or by the laws of descent and distribution, RSUs are not assignable or transferable.
Amendments
The Board may amend the provisions of the RSU Plan and any grant of RSUs from time to time, including
with respect to: (a) amendments of a housekeeping nature; (b) changes to any vesting provisions of an RSU;
(c) changes to the termination provisions of an RSU or the RSU Plan; and (d) amendments to reflect changes
to applicable securities or tax laws. However, other than the foregoing, any amendment to the RSU Plan
which would:
(i) increase the number of G2 Shares issuable under the RSU Plan;
(ii) permit RSUs to be transferred other than for normal estate settlement purposes;
(iii) remove or exceed the specified insider participation limits;
(iv) materially modify the eligibility requirements for participation in the RSU Plan; or
(v) modify the amending provisions of the RSU Plan,
shall be subject to the receipt of applicable Shareholder and regulatory approvals.
Burn Rate
The RSU Plan burn rate for each of the three most recently completed fiscal years is nil.
STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES
The Canadian Securities Administrators have published National Instrument 58-101 Disclosure of
Corporate Governance Practices ("NI 58-101") and National Policy 58-201 Corporate Governance
Guidelines ("NP 58-201"), setting forth guidelines for effective corporate governance and corresponding
disclosure requirements. NP 58-201 contains guidelines concerning matters such as the constitution and
independence of corporate boards, the functions to be performed by boards and their committees and the
effectiveness and education of board members. NI 58-101 requires disclosure by each corporation of its
approach to corporate governance annually, as it is recognized that the unique characteristics of individual
corporations will result in varying degrees of compliance.
Set out below is a description of the Company's approach to corporate governance as required pursuant to
NI 58-101.
Board of Directors
The Board is currently comprised of five directors. The Board has considered the independence of each of its
directors under NI 52-110 and has concluded that each of its directors are independent for Board purposes
other than Messrs. J. Patrick Sheridan and Daniel Noone as a result of their roles as officers of the Company.
To be considered independent for Board purposes, the Board must conclude that a director does not have
either a direct or indirect material relationship with the Company which, in the view of the Board, could be
reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of the director's independent judgement.
The basis for this determination is that, since the beginning of the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, none of
the directors other than Messrs. Sheridan and Noone have worked for the Company, received remuneration
from the Company or had material contracts with or material interests in the Company which could interfere
with their ability to act with a view to the best interests of the Company.
32
To enhance its ability to act independently of management, the Board meets in the absence of members of
management and the non-independent directors, if and when necessary, or may excuse such persons from all
or a portion of any meeting where a potential conflict of interest arises or where otherwise appropriate. During
the financial year ended May 31, 2025, the independent directors held three such sessions without
management or non-independent directors present. Audit Committee meetings were held with in-camera
sessions in the absence of management. The Board believes open and candid discussion amongst all directors
occurred during the year.
Mr. Sheridan is currently Chairman of the Board. Mr. Sheridan is considered a non-independent director as
noted above. As Executive Chairman, Mr. Sheridan is responsible for working with management to set
agendas for and chair meetings of the Board. In addition, given G2's small senior management team, Mr.
Sheridan works closely with management developing strategies, hiring executives, marketing, advising on
capital markets and arranging equity financings to fund G2. In circumstances where the Board meets with
only independent directors, a director will be appointed to chair such meetings on an ad hoc basis. Given the
current size and stage of development of G2 and the composition of the Board, the Board believes these
initiatives are sufficient to provide leadership to the independent directors at the current time.
Certain of the directors of the Company are also directors of other reporting issuers (or equivalent) in a
jurisdiction or a foreign jurisdiction as follows:
Name of director Other reporting issuer (or equivalent in a foreign jurisdiction)
J. Patrick Sheridan S2 Minerals Inc.
Daniel Noone GPM Metals Inc., S2 Minerals Inc.
Bruce Rosenberg GPM Metals Inc.
Stephen Stow S2 Minerals Inc.
Carmen Diges NextTrip Inc.
In carrying out its mandate, the Board met six times during the financial year ended May 31, 2025. The
following table sets out attendance by the directors of the Company at meetings of the Board during the
financial year ended May 31, 2025.
Name of Director Board Meetings Attended
J. Patrick Sheridan 5 of 6
Daniel Noone 5 of 6
Bruce Rosenberg 6 of 6
Stephen Stow 6 of 6
Carmen Diges 6 of 6
Board Mandate
The Board has a written mandate, the text of which is attached as Schedule A to this Circular.
Position Descriptions
The Company has formalized position descriptions or corporate objectives for the Executive Chairman, the
chairman of each committee of the Board, and the President and Chief Executive Officer in order to delineate
their respective responsibilities.
33
Orientation and Continuing Education
The Board does not have a formal orientation or education program for its members. The Board's continuing
education is typically derived from correspondence with the Company's legal counsel to remain up to date
with developments in relevant corporate and securities law matters. Additionally, board members have
historically been nominated who are familiar with the Company and the nature of its business.
Ethical Business Conduct
The Board monitors the ethical conduct of the Company and ensures that it complies with applicable legal
and regulatory requirements, such as those of relevant securities commissions and stock exchanges. The
Board has adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics (the "Code") for the Company's directors,
officers, employees and consultants, which can be accessed on the Company's website
(www.g2goldfields.com). In terms of the Board monitoring compliance with the Code, those to whom it
applies are required to report any actual or potential violation of the Code or of any law or regulation and to
cooperate with any investigation by the Company. The Board has also adopted a whistleblower policy which
requires every employee to report any evidence of activity by any officer, director, employee or consultant,
that among other things, constitutes unethical business conduct in violation of any Company policy, such as
the Code.
In addition, pursuant to the CBCA, the directors and officers of the Company are required, in exercising their
powers and discharging their duties to the Company, to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best
interests of the Company. A director or officer of the Company who is a party to a material contract or
transaction or proposed material contract or transaction with the Company or who is a director or an officer
of, or has a material interest in, any person who is a party to a material contract or transaction or proposed
material contract or transaction with the Company is required to disclose the nature and extent of his interest
to the Company. If such a conflict of interest is disclosed by a director, such director shall not attend any part
of a meeting of directors during which the contract or transaction is discussed and shall not vote on any
resolution to approve the contract or transaction, except in very limited circumstances.
Nomination of Directors
The Compensation Committee is responsible for the nominating and corporate governance procedures of the
Company.
With respect to the director recruitment in general, the Compensation Committee is responsible for: (a)
conducting an analysis of the collection of tangible and intangible skills and qualities necessary for an
effective Board given the Company's current operational and financial condition, the industry in which it
operates and the strategic outlook of the Company; (b) periodically comparing the tangible and intangible
skills and qualities of the existing Board members with the analysis of required skills and identifying
opportunities for improvement; and (c) recommending, as required, changes to the selection criteria used by
the Board to reflect the needs of the Board. Nominees are to be selected for qualities such as integrity, business
judgment, independence, business or professional expertise, international experience, residency and
familiarity with geographic regions relevant to the Company's strategic priorities. Additional considerations
include: (i) the competencies and skills that the Board considers to be necessary for the Board, as a whole, to
possess; (ii) the competencies and skills that the Board considers each existing director to possess; and (iii)
the competencies and skills each new nominee will bring to the boardroom.
34
Compensation
The Board has established the Compensation Committee, which is currently comprised of three directors,
namely Ms. Diges and Messrs. Rosenberg and Stow, each of whom is an independent director. Following the
Meeting, the Compensation Committee will continue to be comprised as such.
The overall objectives of the Company's compensation program relating to compensation matters include the
following:
dot reviewing the Company's overall compensation philosophy;
dot reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to CEO compensation (taking
into account both short-term and long-term compensation goals) and evaluating the CEO's
performance in light of stated corporate goals and objectives;
dot reviewing succession planning for the CEO;
dot in consultation with the CEO, overseeing the evaluation of the Company's executive officers and
determining the compensation of executive officers other than the CEO;
dot reviewing the adequacy, amount and form of compensation paid to each director (and considering
whether such compensation realistically reflects the time commitment, responsibilities and risks
of directors);
dot reviewing the incentive compensation plans; and
dot reviewing the equity-based compensation plans, including the designation of those who may
participate in such plans and the issuance of options in accordance with such plans.
The Compensation Committee will engage and compensate any outside adviser that it determines to be
necessary or advisable to carry out its duties. The Compensation Committee reviews compensation paid to
directors and officers of companies of similar industries, size and stage of development, and makes such other
enquiries deemed necessary on a case-by-case basis, in order to determine appropriate compensation levels
for the directors and officers of the Company.
Other Board Committees
The Board has three standing committees, being the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the
ESG Committee. The ESG Committee is currently comprised of three directors, namely Messrs. Stow (Chair),
Noone and Rosenberg, and shall continue to be comprised as such following the Meeting. The ESG
Committee advises the Board and senior management in relation to the development and implementation of
the Company's ESG initiatives, including policies, compliance systems, and monitoring processes, to ensure
that the Company is performing and reporting in a manner consistent with mining industry best practices.
Assessments
The Board does not view formal assessments as being useful at this stage of the Company's development.
The Board conducts informal annual assessments of the Board's effectiveness, including the performance and
effectiveness of the individual directors and each of its committees.
Director Term Limits
The Company does not have a policy that limits the term of the directors on its Board and has not provided
other mechanisms of board renewal. At this time, the Board does not believe that it is in the best interest of
35
the Company to establish term limits on a director's mandate or a mandatory retirement age. The Board is of
the opinion that term limits may disadvantage the Company through the loss of beneficial contributions of
directors who have developed increasing knowledge of the Company, its operations, and the industry over a
period of time.
Gender Diversity in Executive Officer and Board Position
The Company's senior management and the members of its Board have diverse backgrounds and expertise
and were selected on the belief that the Company and its stakeholders would benefit from such a broad range
of talent and experiences. The Board considers merit as the key requirement for board and executive officer
appointments, and as such, it has not adopted any target number or percentage, or a range of target numbers
or percentages, respecting the representation of women, Indigenous peoples, persons with disabilities, or
members of visible minorities (collectively, "members of designated groups") on the Board or in senior
management roles. In identifying new candidates for Board nomination, the Company looks for individuals
with diverse backgrounds to ensure that best practices and experiences in the mineral exploration industry
can be applied in making strategic decisions for the Company. However, the Company has not adopted a
formal written policy related to the identification and nomination of designated groups (as defined in the
Employment Equity Act (Canada)) for directors. The Company nonetheless appreciates the value of a diverse
Board and management and believes that diversity helps the Company reach its efficiency and skill objectives
for the greater benefit of Shareholders.
The Company has not adopted a written diversity policy due to the small size of the Board and the
management team, and the stage of development of the Company's business. The Board believes that the
qualifications and experience of proposed new directors and members of senior management should remain
the primary consideration in the selection process. The Company will include diversity (including the level
of representation of members of designated groups) as a factor in its future decision-making when identifying
and nominating candidates for election or re-election to the Board and for senior management positions.
The Company seeks to attract and maintain diversity at the executive officer and board of directors' levels
informally through the recruitment efforts of management in discussion with directors prior to proposing
nominees to the Board or candidates for executive officer positions as a whole for consideration. When the
Board selects candidates for Board or executive officer positions, it considers not only the qualifications,
personal qualities, business background and experience of the candidates, it also considers the composition
of the group of nominees, including whether the individual is a member of a designated group, to best bring
together a selection of candidates allowing the Company to perform efficiently and act in the best interest of
the Company and the Shareholders. Although the level of representation of members of designated groups is
one of many factors taken into consideration in making Board and executive officer appointments, greater
emphasis is placed on hiring or advancing the most qualified individuals.
As at the date of this Circular, one member of the Board is female, representing 20% of the Board members.
No members of designated groups currently hold positions in senior management.
INDEBTEDNESS OF DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
There is currently no outstanding indebtedness owing to the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, or
to another entity which is or was the subject of a guarantee, support agreement, letter of credit or similar
arrangement or understanding provided by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, of (a) any
director, executive officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (b) any former director,
executive officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (c) any proposed nominee for
election as a director of the Company (a "Nominee"); or (d) any associate of any current or former director,
executive officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or of any Nominee.

a majority of the votes cast for and against them by the shareholders who are present in person or represented
by proxy, unless the by-laws require a greater number of votes. However, the CBCA also provides that if an
incumbent director who was a candidate was not elected during the election as a result of the majority voting
provision, the director may continue in office until the earlier of: (a) the 90th day after the day of the election;

SUMMARY OF THE ARRANGEMENT
The following is a summary of the principal features of the Arrangement and certain other matters and
should be read together with the more detailed information and financial data and statements contained
elsewhere in the Circular, including the schedules hereto. This Summary is qualified in its entirety by the
more detailed information appearing or referred to elsewhere herein. Unless otherwise indicated, all
40
currency amounts are stated in Canadian dollars. The information contained herein is as of
October 23, 2025 unless otherwise indicated.
Capitalized terms used in this Summary are defined in the Glossary of Terms.
Matters Relating to the Arrangement to be Acted Upon at the Meeting
The Arrangement
Prior Arrangement
In late 2024, G2 entered into an arrangement agreement with G3 pursuant to which, and subject to certain
conditions precedent, G2 planned to spin-out certain non-core assets into G3 by way of a court approved plan
of arrangement. G2 obtained the requisite shareholder approval and Court approval for that plan of
arrangement in early 2025 (the "Prior Arrangement").
Since that time, G2 announced the discovery of a new zone of gold mineralization on certain properties to be
transferred to G3 pursuant to the Prior Arrangement, reviewed and evaluated both "core" and "non-core"
assets within the G2 property portfolio, and determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to spin
out different non-core assets than originally contemplated to further optimize shareholder value. G2 provided
regular updates to investors through press releases dated March 18, 2025, July 10, 2025, and September 10,
2025.
As a result, G2 has terminated the Prior Arrangement and has entered into the Arrangement Agreement. The
terms of the Arrangement are materially the same as the terms of the Prior Arrangement other than regarding
the composition of the Non-Core Assets to be transferred to G3.
Overview
The Shareholders will be asked to approve, by special resolution, the Arrangement involving G2, the G2
Shareholders and G3, a wholly owned subsidiary of G2 incorporated for the purposes of the Arrangement.
Pursuant to the Arrangement, G2 will transfer its interests in the Non-Core Assets and a sufficient amount of
cash (such amount to be determined by G2 at the relevant time) to satisfy G3's working capital and initial
listing requirements in exchange for that number of G3 Shares as determined by the G2 Board. The
outstanding G3 Shares will consist of the G3 Shares issued to G2 as described in the preceding sentence, as
of the Effective Date. G2 will distribute one G3 Share for every two G2 Shares then held by G2 Shareholders
as of the Effective Date as a return of capital.
The Arrangement will result in the G2 Shareholders (other than dissenting G2 Shareholders) as of the
Effective Time being entitled to receive one G3 Share for every two G2 Shares held as at the Effective Time.
The G2 Shareholders will continue to hold their G2 Shares and will also hold G3 Shares.
Pursuant to Section 192 of the CBCA and in accordance with the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, the
Arrangement Resolution must be approved, with or without variation, by not less than two-thirds of the votes
cast in person or by proxy by Shareholders entitled to vote at the Meeting. See "Particulars of Matters to be
Acted Upon The Arrangement" in this Circular. The full text of the Arrangement Resolution is set out in
Schedule B to this Circular.
The TSX has conditionally accepted the Arrangement and G3 has applied to list the G3 Shares on the CSE.
Any listing will be subject to the approval of the CSE.
41
Stated Capital Reduction
In connection with and as a condition to the implementation of the Plan of Arrangement, the Shareholders
will also be asked to approve, by special resolution, a reduction in the stated capital of the G2 Shares, without
any distribution to the G2 Shareholders, by such amount as the G2 Board determines at the relevant time is
required so that the realizable value of G2's assets is not less than the aggregate of G2's liabilities and the
stated capital of the G2 Shares. Pursuant to Section 38(1) of the CBCA, the Stated Capital Resolution must
be approved, with or without variation, by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast at the Meeting in person
or by proxy by G2 Shareholders. See "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon Stated Capital Reduction"
in this Circular.
Creation of a New Control Person
Pursuant to the Arrangement, Mr. J. Patrick Sheridan, the Executive Chairman of G2 and the proposed
Executive Chairman of G3 following completion of the Arrangement, will have beneficial ownership, control
or direction over approximately 16.0% of the outstanding G3 Shares. Mr. Sheridan anticipates acquiring
additional G3 Shares following completion of the Arrangement such that he may have beneficial ownership,
control or direction over more than 20% of the outstanding G3 Shares.
Pursuant to subsection 4.6(2)(a)(iv) of CSE Policy 4, the CSE requires an issuer to obtain shareholder
approval where, in a proposed transaction involving the issuance of securities, the transaction will materially
affect control of the issuer. CSE Policy 1 defines "materially affect control" as the ability of any security
holder, or a combination of security holders acting together, to influence the outcome of a vote. Additionally,
a transaction that results, or could result, in a new holding of more than 20% of the voting securities by one
security holder or combination of security holders acting together will be considered to materially affect
control, unless the circumstances indicate otherwise.
Accordingly, as Mr. Sheridan could have beneficial ownership, control or direction over more than 20% of
the outstanding G3 Shares following the completion of the Arrangement, the Arrangement could materially
affect control of G3 and result in Mr. Sheridan becoming a "Control Block Holder" or "Control Person" (as
defined in CSE Policy 1), and therefore, pursuant to the policies of the CSE, approval of Shareholders
(excluding the votes of Mr. Sheridan) is required for the Arrangement to proceed.
Pursuant to the policies of the CSE, the Control Person Resolution must be approved, with or without
variation, by a simple majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy by Shareholders entitled to vote at the
Meeting (excluding the G2 Shares held by Mr. J. Patrick Sheridan, being 41,049,074 G2 Shares representing
approximately 16.0% of the G2 Shares outstanding as of the date of this Circular). See "Particulars of Matters
to be Acted Upon Creation of New Control Person" in this Circular.
Other Matters
The Shareholders will also be asked to approve the G3 Option Plan and G3 RSU Plan for use by G3 following
completion of the Arrangement. See "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon G3 Stock Option Plan" and
"Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon G3 RSU Plan" in this Circular.
Summary of the Arrangement, the Resulting Issuers and Their Businesses
The Arrangement will be completed by way of plan of arrangement pursuant to Section 192 of the CBCA
involving G2, the G2 Shareholders and G3. The disclosure of the principal features of the Arrangement, as
summarized below, is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Arrangement Agreement.
42
Principal Steps of the Arrangement
The approval of the Stated Capital Resolution and the reduction in the stated capital of the G2 Shares, without
any distribution to the G2 Shareholders, by such amount as the G2 Board determines at the relevant time is
required so that the realizable value of G2's assets is not less than the aggregate of G2's liabilities and the
stated capital of the G2 Shares shall occur prior to, and be a condition to the implementation of the Plan of
Arrangement.
Commencing at the Effective Time, each of the events set out below shall occur and be deemed to occur in
the following order, without any further act or formality:
(a) each G2 Share in respect of which a Shareholder has validly exercised Dissent Rights shall be
cancelled and the Dissenting Shareholder shall cease to have any rights as a holder of such G2 Share
other than the right to be paid the fair value of such G2 Share in accordance with the Plan of
Arrangement;
(b) Bartica will sell all of the G3 Guyana Shares that it holds to G3 Barbados in exchange for that number
of G3 Barbados Shares as determined by the G2 Board having a value equal to the fair market value
of G3 Guyana.
(c) Bartica will sell all of the G3 Barbados Shares that it holds to G3 for a promissory note (that is non-
interest bearing and due on demand) with a principal amount equal to the fair market value of the G3
Barbados Shares.
(d) G2 will transfer to G3 all of the G3 Barbados Shares that it holds and an amount of cash that the G2
Board determines at the relevant time will be sufficient to satisfy G3's working capital requirements
and the initial listing requirements of the CSE, plus an additional amount equal to the Non-Core
Assets Funds as reflected in the Carve-Out Financial Statements, in exchange for that number of G3
Shares as determined by the G2 Board and equal to one G3 Share for every two issued and outstanding
G2 Shares, pursuant to subsection 85(1) of the Tax Act.
(e) G3 will subscribe for that number of G3 Barbados Shares as determined by the G2 Board for cash in
an amount equal to the Non-Core Asset Funds.
(f) G3 Barbados will subscribe for that number of G3 Guyana Shares as determined by the G2 Board
cash in an amount equal to the Non-Core Asset Funds.
(g) G3 Guyana will purchase from G2 Guyana its interest in the Tiger Creek Property and the Aremu
Partnership for an amount of the Non-Core Asset Funds that is equal to the book value of such assets
as reflected in the Carve-Out Financial Statements.
(h) G3 Guyana will purchase from Ontario Inc. its interest in the Peters Mine Property, Aremu Mine
Property and Ghanie MSMP for an amount of the Non-Core Asset Funds that is equal to the book
value of such assets as reflected in the Carve-Out Financial Statements.
(i) G2 will distribute one G3 Share in accordance with the Plan of Arrangement for every two G2 Shares
then held by G2 Shareholders (other than Dissenting Shareholders) as of the Effective Date as a return
of capital pursuant to a reorganization of G2's business and a distribution of proceeds from a
disposition of G2's property outside the ordinary course of G2's business.
43
The foregoing matters will be deemed to occur on the Effective Date, notwithstanding that certain of the
procedures related thereto, may not be completed until after the Effective Date.
The G2 Board may, in its absolute discretion, determine whether or not to proceed with the Arrangement
without further approval, ratification or confirmation by the Shareholders.
Reasons for the Arrangement
G2 believes that the Arrangement is in the best interests of G2 for numerous reasons, including the fact that
G2 will continue as a resource company in the business of advancing the Core Guyana Properties. The Non-
Core Assets are not required for G2's primary business focus. G2 expects to continue to have broad appeal
to the investment community to continue its focus being on the advancement of the Core Guyana Properties,
G2 also believes that the Arrangement will also minimize potential dilution of the Core Guyana Properties.
Following the Arrangement, G3 is expected to focus on the Non-Core Assets and on the future acquisition of
exploration stage assets in Guyana. The Arrangement will allow the market to value the Non-Core Assets
independently of the Core Guyana Properties which will continue to be held by G2.
G3 will benefit from a strong board of directors and management team with experience acquiring and
exploring exploration stage assets in Guyana. It is expected that transferring the Non-Core Assets from G2 to
G3 will accelerate exploration and if warranted, development of the Non-Core Assets and give broader scope
to new acquisitions. Shareholders who continue as G2 Shareholders will hold shares in two companies with
distinct businesses and projects.
The Arrangement is designed to deliver greater value to G2 Shareholders by unlocking the value of the Non-
Core Assets and providing a mechanism for G3 to have sufficient working capital through the injection of
capital from G2 to carry out an initial work program and to cover its anticipated near term general and
administrative expenditures.
However, the G2 Board also identified and considered a variety of risks and potentially negative factors,
including, but not limited to the risks set out under "The Arrangement Arrangement Risk Factors".
The foregoing discussion summarizes the material information and factors considered by the G2 Board in
their consideration of the Plan of Arrangement. The G2 Board collectively reached its unanimous decision
(with Mr. Noone abstaining as he is currently the sole director and officer of G3) with respect to the Plan of
Arrangement in light of the factors described above and other factors that each member of the G2 Board felt
were appropriate. In view of the wide variety of factors and the quality and amount of information considered,
the G2 Board did not find it useful or practicable to, and did not make specific assessments of, quantify, rank
or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors considered in reaching its determination. Individual
members of the G2 Board may have given different weight to different factors.
For further information on the reasons for the Arrangement, see "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon
The Arrangement Recommendation of the Board" in this Circular.
Recommendation of the Board
The G2 Board reviewed the Arrangement Agreement and concluded that the transactions contemplated by
the Arrangement Agreement are fair and reasonable to the G2 Shareholders and in the best interests of G2.
The G2 Board recommends that the G2 Shareholders vote in favour of the Arrangement Resolution.
Each director and officer of G2 who owns G2 Shares has indicated their intention to vote their G2
44
Shares in favour of the Arrangement Resolution. See "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon The
Arrangement Recommendation of the Board" in this Circular.
Effect of the Arrangement
As a result of the Arrangement, G2 Shareholders will continue to hold their G2 Shares and will receive one
G3 Share for every two G2 Shares held at the Effective Time. Based on the number of G2 Shares issued and
outstanding as of the date hereof, the issued capital of G3 would be approximately 128,504,917 G3 Shares,
post-Arrangement. G2 Shareholders will own all of the outstanding G3 Shares, post-Arrangement, as of the
Effective Time. G2 will continue to hold the Core Guyana Properties and G3 will hold the Non-Core Assets.
G3 will be a reporting issuer in the Reporting Jurisdictions. G3 has applied to list the G3 Shares on the CSE.
Any listing will be subject to the approval of the CSE.
No Fractional Shares
No fractional G3 Shares will be distributed. In the event that a G2 Shareholder would otherwise be entitled
to a fractional G3 Share distributed to such G2 Shareholder, such G3 Shares shall without any additional
compensation, be rounded down to the next lesser whole number of G3 Shares. In calculating such fractional
interests, all G2 Shares registered in the name of or beneficially held by such G2 Shareholder or their nominee
shall be aggregated.
Directors and Officers of G3
The G3 Board will be comprised of J. Patrick Sheridan (Executive Chairman), Daniel Noone, Declan
Franzmann, Antonio Paluzzi and Carmen Diges. Daniel Noone will be the President and Chief Executive
Officer of G3, Torben Michalsen will be the Chief Operating Officer of G3 and Carmelo Marrelli will be the
Chief Financial Officer of G3. Any changes to the proposed directors or officers of G3 prior to the completion
of the Arrangement will be announced by G2 through press release. Changes and additions to the management
team and the G3 Board will be made as needed and as the exploration of Non-Core Assets progresses. See
"G3 Goldfields Inc. Directors and Officers" in this Circular.
The Companies
G2, a CBCA incorporated company, is listed on the TSX and is engaged in the exploration and development
of gold prospects in Guyana.
G3 is a wholly owned subsidiary of G2 incorporated under the OBCA for the purpose of the Arrangement.
As of the Effective Date, G3 will acquire all of G2's interest in the Non-Core Assets.
See "G2 Goldfields Inc." and "G3 Goldfields Inc." in this Circular for disclosure about each of G2 and G3,
on a current and post-Arrangement basis.
Pro Forma Business Objectives
Upon completion of the Arrangement, G2 will continue to hold Core Guyana Properties. Accordingly, G2
will continue to actively explore and if warranted, develop the Core Guyana Properties. Upon completion of
the Arrangement, G3 will have working capital of approximately $15 million and will hold the Non-Core
Assets. G3 intends to concentrate its activities on the exploration of the Non-Core Assets and on the future
acquisition of exploration stage assets in Guyana. G3 has applied to list the G3 Shares on the CSE. Any listing
will be subject to the approval of the CSE.

Additional Terms of the Arrangement Agreement
In addition to the terms and conditions of the Arrangement Agreement set out elsewhere in this Circular,
additional terms described below apply. The description of the Arrangement Agreement, both below and
elsewhere in this Circular, is summary only, not comprehensive and is qualified in its entirety by reference to
the terms of the Arrangement Agreement which may be found at G2's profile at www.sedarplus.ca.
Conditions to the Arrangement
The Arrangement is subject to a number of specified conditions, certain of which may only be waived in
accordance with the Arrangement Agreement, including receipt by G2 and G3 of all required approvals,
including approval of the Arrangement Resolution and Stated Capital Resolution by G2 Shareholders;
approval of the TSX of the Arrangement subject only to compliance with the usual conditions of such
approval; and approval of the Arrangement by the Court. See "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon The
Arrangement Conduct of Meeting and Other Approvals" and "Arrangement Agreement Conditions to the
Arrangement Becoming Effective" in this Circular.
Stock Exchange Approvals and "Due Bills Trading"
The G2 Shares are and will continue to be listed and posted for trading on the TSX upon completion of the
Arrangement.
TSX approval is required in order for G2 to complete the Arrangement and, on October 21, 2025, the TSX
conditionally accepted the Arrangement, subject to satisfying customary TSX conditions. G3 has applied to
list the G3 Shares on the CSE. Any listing will be subject to the approval of the CSE.
Pursuant to the Arrangement, G2 Shareholders of record as of the close of business on the Effective Date will
receive one G3 Share for every two G2 Shares then held by each G2 Shareholder, subject to the "due bills"
trading procedure described below. Completion of the Arrangement remains subject to the final approval of,
and customary filings with , the TSX, and is expected to close in (i.e. have an Effective Date in) December,
2025.
If the Final Order is received and all other conditions to closing the Arrangement have been satisfied or
waived, the TSX has advised that the G2 Shares are expected to commence trading on a "due bill" basis
effective from the opening of markets on the Effective Date until the close of business on the date that is three
Business Days following the Effective Date (the "payment date"). Trades of G2 Shares during this time will
have a due bill attached which will allow the purchaser of G2 Shares, rather than the seller of G2 Shares, to
receive the distribution of G3 Shares pursuant to the Arrangement even if such trades are settled after the
Effective Time on the Effective Date. It is expected that effective at the opening of markets on the first trading
day following the payment date, the G2 Shares will commence trading on an ex-distribution basis without
any due bill entitlement reflecting that the distribution of G3 Shares has occurred. These dates will be
confirmed in a press release to be issued by G2, which press release is expected to be issued in December,
2025.
See "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon The Arrangement Conduct of Meeting and Other Approvals"
in this Circular. There is no assurance that G3 and G2 will receive the required approvals.
Court Approval of the Arrangement
Under section 192 of the CBCA, G2 is required to obtain the direction of the Court providing for the calling
and holding of the Meeting, and to obtain a Final Order of the Court approving the Arrangement. On
46
October 23, 2025, prior to the mailing of the material in respect of the Meeting, G2 obtained an Interim Order
providing for the calling and holding of the Meeting and other procedural matters. A copy of the Interim
Order is appended as Schedule J to this Circular. A copy of the Notice of Application for Final Order
approving the Arrangement is appended as Schedule K to this Circular.
The Court hearing in respect of the Final Order is scheduled to take place at 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on
December 3, 2025, following the Meeting or as soon thereafter as the Court may direct or counsel for G2 may
be heard, by videoconference, subject to the approval of the Arrangement Resolution at the Meeting. G2
Shareholders who wish to participate in or be represented at the Court hearing should consult with
their legal advisors as to the necessary requirements.
At the Court hearing, G2 Shareholders who wish to participate or to be represented or to present evidence or
arguments must serve and file a notice of appearance as set out in the Notice of Application for the Final
Order and satisfy any other requirements of the Court. At the hearing, the Court will consider, among other
things, the fairness and reasonableness of the terms and conditions of the Arrangement and the rights and
interests of every person affected. The Court may approve the Arrangement in any manner the Court may
direct, subject to compliance with such terms and conditions, if any, as the Court deems fit. Under the CBCA,
the Court's approval is required for the Arrangement to become effective.
See "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon The Arrangement Conduct of Meeting and Other Approvals"
in this Circular.
Dissent Rights to the Arrangement
Registered Shareholders have the right to dissent to the Arrangement. Dissenting Shareholders who strictly
comply with the provisions of the Interim Order are entitled to be paid the fair value of their G2 Shares by
G2. See the Interim Order appended as Schedule J to this Circular. In addition, the dissent rights applicable
to the Arrangement are summarized under the heading "G2 Shareholders' Rights of Dissent to the
Arrangement".
Dissenting Shareholders should note that the exercise of dissent rights can be a complex, time-sensitive
and expensive procedure. Dissenting Shareholders should consult their legal advisors with respect to
the legal rights available to them in relation to the Arrangement and the dissent rights.
Procedure for Receipt of G3 Shares
As soon as practicable after the Effective Date, the Transfer Agent will forward to each Registered
Shareholder at the Effective Time who has not dissented to the Arrangement, DRS Statements representing
the G3 Shares to which they are entitled under the Arrangement.
DRS is a system that will allow registered G2 Shareholders to hold their G3 Shares in "book-entry" form
without having a physical share certificate issued as evidence of ownership. Instead, G3 Shares will be held
in the name of G2 Registered Shareholders and registered electronically in G3's records, which will be
maintained by the Transfer Agent, TSX Trust Company. The first time G3 Shares are recorded under DRS
(upon completion of the Arrangement), registered G3 Shareholders will receive an initial DRS Statement
acknowledging the number of G3 Shares held in their DRS account. Anytime that there is movement of G3
Shares into or out of a registered G3 Shareholder's DRS account, an updated DRS Statement will be mailed.
Registered G3 Shareholders may request a statement at any time by contacting the Transfer Agent. There is
no fee to participate in DRS and dividends, if any, will not be affected by DRS.
47
You will receive the DRS Statement in lieu of physical share certificates evidencing the G3 Shares that you
are entitled to following completion of the Arrangement. Instructions will be provided upon receipt of the
DRS Statements representing G3 Shares for Registered holders of G3 Shares that would like to request a
physical G3 Share certificate. Only Registered Shareholders will receive a DRS Statement representing G3
Shares.
G2 Shareholders as of the close of business on the Effective Date (being the date of certification of the Articles
of Arrangement by the Director in accordance with Section 192(8) of the CBCA) will be entitled to receive
G3 Shares under the Arrangement. The Effective Date is expected to be in December, 2025, and will be
announced by the Company following the Meeting (subject to Shareholder approval of the Arrangement).
The payout date for the G3 Shares to be distributed to G2 Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement is
expected to be three Business Days following the Effective Date. The payout of G3 Shares is conditional
upon the completion of the Arrangement, and no G3 Shares will be distributed to the G2 Shareholders unless
and until the Arrangement has been completed.
G2 Shareholders should not deliver certificates or DRS Statements for G2 Shares to the Transfer Agent
as certificates or DRS Statements representing G2 Shares are not being exchanged pursuant to the
Arrangement.
Income Tax Considerations
G2 Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors about the applicable Canadian, foreign or United States
federal, provincial, state and local tax consequences of the Arrangement applicable to G2 Shareholders. A
summary of the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations of the Arrangement is included under
"Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations" in this Circular.
Securities Laws Information for Canadian G2 Shareholders
The following disclosure is provided as general information only. Each G2 Shareholder should consult their
own professional advisors to determine the conditions and restrictions applicable to trades in the G3 Shares.
The issuance of the G3 Shares pursuant to the Arrangement will constitute a distribution of securities, which
is exempt from the prospectus requirement of Canadian securities legislation. The G3 Shares issued pursuant
to the Arrangement may be resold in each of the provinces and territories of Canada, provided the trade is not
a "control distribution" as defined in the applicable securities legislation, no unusual effort is made to prepare
the market or create a demand for those securities, no extraordinary commission or consideration is paid in
respect of the trade, and if the selling security holder is an insider or officer of G3, the selling security holder
has no reasonable grounds to believe that G3 is in default of securities legislation.
Each G2 Shareholder is urged to consult their own professional advisors to determine the conditions
and restrictions applicable to trades in such securities.
See "Securities Law Considerations Canadian Securities Laws and Resale of Securities" in this Circular.
Securities Laws Information for U.S. G2 Shareholders
We believe that the pro rata distribution of G3 Shares to G2 Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement is not
an "offer to sell" or a "disposition for value" within the meaning of Section 2(3) of the U.S. Securities Act
and SEC Staff Legal Bulletin No. 4 and consequently the G3 Shares have not been, and will not be, registered
under the U.S. Securities Act or the securities laws of any state of the United States. It is intended that G3
will comply with the provisions of SEC Rule 12g3-2(b) under the U.S. Exchange Act so that the G3 Shares
48
will also be exempt from registration under the U.S. Exchange Act. As a result, the G3 Shares to be received
by G2 Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement will be freely transferable under U.S. federal securities laws
except by persons who are "affiliates" (as defined in Rule 405 of the U.S. Securities Act) of G3 after the
Effective Date or were "affiliates" of G3 within 90 days prior to the date of any proposed resale. Persons who
may be deemed to be "affiliates" of an issuer include individuals or entities that control, are controlled by, or
are under common control with, the issuer, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract,
or otherwise, and generally include executive officers and directors of the issuer as well as principal
shareholders of the issuer. Any resale of such G3 Shares by such an affiliate (or former affiliate) may be
subject to the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, absent an exemption therefrom.
Each G2 Shareholder is urged to consult their own professional advisors to determine the conditions
and restrictions applicable to trades in such securities.
See "Securities Law Considerations United States Securities Laws and Resale of Securities" in this Circular.
THE G3 SHARES TO BE ISSUED TO G2 SHAREHOLDERS PURSUANT TO THE
ARRANGEMENT HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SEC OR THE
SECURITIES REGULATORY AUTHORITIES OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES, NOR
HAS THE SEC OR THE SECURITIES REGULATORY AUTHORITIES OF ANY STATE PASSED
ON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS CIRCULAR. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE
CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE.
Risk Factors
The securities of G2 and G3 should be considered highly speculative investments and the transactions
contemplated herein should be considered of a high-risk nature. G2 Shareholders should carefully consider
all of the information disclosed in this Circular prior to voting on the matters being put before them at the
Meeting.
There are risks associated with the Arrangement that should be considered by G2 Shareholders, including (i)
market reaction to the Arrangement and the future trading prices of the G2 Shares and of the G3 Shares, if
listed, cannot be predicted; (ii) the transactions may give rise to significant adverse tax consequences to G2
Shareholders and each G2 Shareholder is urged to consult their own tax advisor; (iii) uncertainty as to whether
the Arrangement will have a positive impact on the entities involved in the transactions; and (iv) there is no
assurance that required regulatory or court approvals will be received or that the G3 Shares will be listed on
a stock exchange.
There are risks associated with the businesses of G2 and G3 that should be considered by G2 Shareholders,
including (i) the need for additional capital by G2 and G3, through financings and the risk that such funds
may not be raised; (ii) the speculative nature of exploration and the stages of the properties or assets of G2
and G3; (iii) the effect of changes in commodity prices; (iv) regulatory risks that development will not be
acceptable for social, environmental or other reasons; (v) reliance on the management; (vi) the potential for
conflicts of interest; (vii) those risk factors outlined under the heading "Risk Factors" in the G2 AIF; and
(viii) other risks associated with either G2 or G3 as described in greater detail elsewhere in this Circular.
G2 Shareholders should review carefully the risk factors set forth under "Particulars of Matters to be Acted
Upon The Arrangement Arrangement Risk Factors", "G2 Goldfields Inc. Risk Factors" and "G3
Goldfields Inc. Risk Factors".
49
PARTICULARS OF MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON THE ARRANGEMENT
At the Meeting, the Shareholders will be asked to approve the Arrangement Resolution, the full text of which
is set out in Schedule B to this Circular. In order for the Arrangement to become effective, as provided in the
Interim Order and required by the CBCA, each of the Arrangement Resolution and the Stated Capital
Resolution must be approved by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes cast in person or by
proxy by Shareholders entitled to vote at the Meeting.
If the Arrangement Resolution and the Stated Capital Resolution are approved, the Arrangement will become
effective on the Effective Date, subject to satisfaction of the applicable conditions. The disclosure of the
principal features of the Arrangement among G2, the G2 Shareholders and G3, as summarized below, is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Arrangement Agreement, which is available under
G2's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
Prior Arrangement
In late 2024, G2 entered into an arrangement agreement with respect to the Prior Arrangement. G2 obtained
the requisite shareholder approval and Court approval for the Prior Arrangement. Since that time, G2
announced the discovery of a new zone of gold mineralization on certain properties to be transferred to G3
pursuant to the Prior Arrangement, reviewed and evaluated both "core" and "non-core" assets within the G2
property portfolio, and determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to spin out different non-core
assets than originally contemplated to further optimize shareholder value. G2 provided regular updates to
investors through press releases dated March 18, 2025, July 10, 2025, and September 10, 2025.
As a result, G2 has terminated the Prior Arrangement and has entered into the Arrangement Agreement. The
terms of the Arrangement are materially the same as the terms of the Prior Arrangement other than regarding
the composition of the Non-Core Assets to be transferred to G3.
Principal Steps of the Arrangement
The approval of the Stated Capital Resolution and the reduction in the stated capital of the G2 Shares, without
any distribution to the G2 Shareholders, by such amount as the G2 Board determines at the relevant time is
required so that the realizable value of G2's assets is not less than the aggregate of G2's liabilities and the
stated capital of the G2 Shares shall occur prior to, and be a condition to the implementation of the Plan of
Arrangement.
Commencing at the Effective Time, each of the events set out below shall occur and be deemed to occur in
the following order, without any further act or formality:
(a) each G2 Share in respect of which a Shareholder has validly exercised Dissent Rights shall be
cancelled and the Dissenting Shareholder shall cease to have any rights as a holder of such G2 Share
other than the right to be paid the fair value of such G2 Share in accordance with the Plan of
Arrangement;
(b) Bartica will sell all of the G3 Guyana Shares that it holds to G3 Barbados in exchange for that number
of G3 Barbados Shares as determined by the G2 Board having a value equal to the fair market value
of G3 Guyana.
(c) Bartica will sell all of the G3 Barbados Shares that it holds to G3 for a promissory note (that is non-
interest bearing and due on demand) with a principal amount equal to the fair market value of the G3
Barbados Shares.
50
(d) G2 will transfer to G3 all of the G3 Barbados Shares that it holds and an amount of cash that the G2
Board determines at the relevant time will be sufficient to satisfy G3's working capital requirements
and the initial listing requirements of the CSE, plus an additional amount equal to the Non-Core
Assets Funds as reflected in the Carve-Out Financial Statements, in exchange for that number of G3
Shares as determined by the G2 Board and equal to one G3 Share for every two issued and outstanding
G2 Shares, pursuant to subsection 85(1) of the Tax Act.
(e) G3 will subscribe for that number of G3 Barbados Shares as determined by the G2 Board for cash in
an amount equal to the Non-Core Asset Funds.
(f) G3 Barbados will subscribe for that number of G3 Guyana Shares as determined by the G2 Board
cash in an amount equal to the Non-Core Asset Funds.
(g) G3 Guyana will purchase from G2 Guyana its interest in the Tiger Creek Property and the Aremu
Partnership for an amount of the Non-Core Asset Funds that is equal to the book value of such assets
as reflected in the Carve-Out Financial Statements.
(h) G3 Guyana will purchase from Ontario Inc. its interest in the Peters Mine Property, Aremu Mine
Property and Ghanie MSMP for an amount of the Non-Core Asset Funds that is equal to the book
value of such assets as reflected in the Carve-Out Financial Statements.
(i) G2 will distribute one G3 Share in accordance with the Plan of Arrangement for every two G2 Shares
then held by G2 Shareholders (other than Dissenting Shareholders) as of the Effective Date as a return
of capital pursuant to a reorganization of G2's business and a distribution of proceeds from a
disposition of G2's property outside the ordinary course of G2's business.
The foregoing matters will be deemed to occur on the Effective Date, notwithstanding that certain of the
procedures related thereto, may not be completed until after the Effective Date.
The G2 Board may, in its absolute discretion, determine whether or not to proceed with the Arrangement
without further approval, ratification or confirmation by the G2 Shareholders.
Reasons for the Arrangement
G2 believes that the Arrangement is in the best interests of G2 for numerous reasons, including the fact that
G2 will continue as a resource company in the business of advancing the Core Guyana Properties. The Non-
Core Assets are not required for G2's primary business focus. G2 expects to continue to have broad appeal
to the investment community to continue its focus being on the advancement of the Core Guyana Properties,
G2 also believes that the Arrangement will also minimize potential dilution of the Core Guyana Properties.
Following the Arrangement, G3 is expected to focus on the Non-Core Assets and on the future acquisition of
exploration stage assets in Guyana. The Arrangement will allow the market to value the Non-Core Assets
independently of the Core Guyana Properties which will continue to be held by G2.
G3 will benefit from a strong board of directors and management team with experience acquiring and
exploring exploration stage assets in Guyana. It is expected that transferring the Non-Core Assets from G2 to
G3 will accelerate exploration and if warranted, development of the Non-Core Assets and give broader scope
to new acquisitions. Shareholders who continue as G2 Shareholders will hold shares in two companies with
distinct businesses and projects.
51
The Arrangement is designed to deliver greater value to G2 Shareholders by unlocking the value of the Non-
Core Assets and providing a mechanism for G3 to have sufficient working capital through the injection of
capital from G2 to carry out an initial work program and to cover its anticipated near term general and
administrative expenditures.
However, the G2 Board also identified and considered a variety of risks and potentially negative factors,
including, but not limited to the risks set out under "The Arrangement Arrangement Risk Factors".
The foregoing discussion summarizes the material information and factors considered by the G2 Board in
their consideration of the Plan of Arrangement. The G2 Board collectively reached its unanimous decision
(with Mr. Noone abstaining as he is currently the sole director and officer of G3) with respect to the Plan of
Arrangement in light of the factors described above and other factors that each member of the G2 Board felt
were appropriate. In view of the wide variety of factors and the quality and amount of information considered,
the G2 Board did not find it useful or practicable to, and did not make specific assessments of, quantify, rank
or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors considered in reaching its determination. Individual
members of the G2 Board may have given different weight to different factors.
Recommendation of the Board
The Board has reviewed the terms and conditions of the proposed Arrangement and has concluded that the
Arrangement is fair and reasonable to the G2 Shareholders and in the best interests of G2.
In arriving at this conclusion, the Board considered, among other matters:
1. the financial condition, business and operations of G2, on both a historical and prospective basis, and
information in respect of G3 on a pro forma basis;
2. the procedures by which the Arrangement is to be approved, including the requirement for approval
of the Arrangement by the Court after a hearing at which fairness to G2 Shareholders will be
considered;
3. the availability of rights of dissent to registered G2 Shareholders with respect to the Arrangement;
4. the assets to be held by each of G2 and G3 and the unrealized value of the Non-Core Assets within
G2;
5. the advantages of segregating the Guyana property portfolios of G2 in the Core Guyana Properties to
be held by G2 and the Non-Core Assets to be held by G3;
6. the results of similar transactions by other companies in G2's peer group, and the positive market
reaction thereto;
7. historical information regarding the price of the G2 Shares;
8. the Canadian tax treatment of G2 Shareholders under the Arrangement;
9. G2 Shareholders will own securities of two publicly listed companies, if the intended listing of the
G3 Shares is obtained; and
52
10. G2 will be able to concentrate its efforts on the advancement of the Core Guyana Properties and G3
will be able to concentrate its efforts on exploring the Non-Core Assets and may explore potential
opportunities for acquisition of additional exploration properties, appealing to prospective investors.
The Board did not assign a relative weight to each specific factor and each director may have given different
weights to different factors. Based on its review of all the factors, the Board considers the Arrangement to be
advantageous to G2 and fair and reasonable to the G2 Shareholders. The Board also identified disadvantages
associated with the Arrangement including the fact that there will be the additional costs associated with
running two companies and there is no assurance that the proposed Arrangement will result in positive
benefits to G2 Shareholders. See "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon The Arrangement Arrangement
Risk Factors", "G2 Goldfields Inc. Risk Factors" and "G3 Goldfields Inc. Risk Factors".
The Board recommends that the Shareholders vote in favour of the Arrangement Resolution. Each
director and officer of G2 who owns G2 Shares has indicated their intention to vote their G2 Shares in
favour of the Arrangement Resolution.
Effect of the Arrangement
As a result of the Arrangement, G2 Shareholders will continue to hold their G2 Shares and will receive one
G3 Share for every two G2 Shares held at the Effective Time. Based on the number of G2 Shares issued and
outstanding as of the date hereof, the issued capital of G3 would be approximately 128,504,917 G3 Shares,
post-Arrangement. G2 Shareholders will own all of the outstanding G3 Shares, post-Arrangement, as of the
Effective Time. G2 will continue to hold the Core Guyana Properties and G3 will hold the Non-Core Assets.
G3 will be a reporting issuer in the Reporting Jurisdictions. G3 has applied to list the G3 Shares on the CSE.
Any listing will be subject to the approval of the CSE.
No Fractional Shares
No fractional G3 Shares will be distributed. In the event that a G2 Shareholder would otherwise be entitled
to a fractional G3 Share distributed to such G2 Shareholder, such G3 Shares shall without any additional
compensation, be rounded down to the next lesser whole number of G3 Shares. In calculating such fractional
interests, all G2 Shares registered in the name of or beneficially held by such G2 Shareholder or their nominee
shall be aggregated.
Amendments to the Plan of Arrangement
G2 reserves the right to amend, modify or supplement (or do all of the foregoing) the Plan of Arrangement
from time to time and at any time prior to the Effective Date provided that any such amendment, modification
and/or supplement must be contained in a written document that is:
(a) filed with the Court and, if made following the Meeting, approved by the Court; and
(b) communicated to G2 Shareholders in the manner required by the Court (if so required).
Any amendment, modification or supplement to the Plan of Arrangement may be proposed by G2 at any time
prior to or at the Meeting, with or without any other prior notice or communication, and if so proposed and
accepted by the persons voting at the Meeting (other than as may be required under the Interim Order), shall
become part of the Plan of Arrangement for all purposes.
53
Any amendment, modification or supplement to the Plan of Arrangement which is approved by the Court
following the Meeting shall be effective only:
(a) if it is consented to by G2; and
(b) if required by the Court or applicable law, it is consented to by the G2 Shareholders.
Any amendment, modification or supplement to the Plan of Arrangement may be made following the
Effective Date unilaterally by G2, provided that it concerns a matter which, in the reasonable opinion of G2,
is of an administrative nature required to better give effect to the implementation of the Plan of Arrangement
and is not adverse to the financial or economic interest of any holder of G2 Shares or G3 Shares.
Directors and Officers of G3
The G3 Board will be comprised of J. Patrick Sheridan (Executive Chairman), Daniel Noone, Declan
Franzmann, Antonio Paluzzi, and Carmen Diges. Daniel Noone will be the President and Chief Executive
Officer of G3, Torben Michalsen will be the Chief Operating Officer of G3 and Carmelo Marrelli will be the
Chief Financial Officer of G3. Any changes to the proposed directors or officers of G3 prior to the completion
of the Arrangement will be announced by G2 through press release. Changes and additions to the management
team and the G3 Board will be made as needed and as the Non-Core Assets progress. See "G3 Goldfields Inc.
Directors and Officers" in this Circular.
Arrangement Risk Factors
G2 and G3 should each be considered as highly speculative investments and the transactions contemplated
herein should be considered of a high-risk nature. Shareholders should carefully consider all of the
information disclosed in this Circular prior to voting on the matters being put before them at the Meeting.
The completion of the Arrangement is subject to a number of conditions precedent, certain of which are
outside the control of G2 and G3, including receipt of G2 Shareholder approval at the Meeting and receipt of
the Final Order. There can be no certainty, nor can G2 or G3 provide any assurance, that these conditions will
be satisfied or, if satisfied, when they will be satisfied.
In addition to the other information presented in this Circular (without limitation, see also "G2 Goldfields
Inc. Risk Factors" and "G3 Goldfields Inc. Risk Factors"), the following risk factors should be given
special consideration:
1. The trading price of G2 Shares on the Effective Date may vary from the price as at the date of
execution of the Arrangement Agreement, the date of this Circular and the date of the Meeting and
may fluctuate depending on investors' perceptions of the merits of the Arrangement.
2. Pursuant to the provisions of the Plan of Arrangement, the Consideration is fixed and it will not
increase or decrease due to fluctuations in the market price of the G2 Shares. The implied value of
the Consideration to be received pursuant to the Arrangement will partly depend on the market price
of the G2 Shares on the Effective Date. If the market price of the G2 Shares increases or decreases,
the value of the Consideration will correspondingly increase or decrease. There can be no assurance
that the market price of the G2 Shares on the Effective Date will not be lower or higher than the
market price of the G2 Shares on the date of the Meeting. In addition, the number of G3 Shares being
issued in connection with the Arrangement will not change despite decreases or increases in the
market price of the G2 Shares. Many of the factors that affect the market price of the G2 Shares are
beyond the control of G2. These factors include fluctuations in commodity prices, fluctuations in
54
currency exchange rates, changes in the regulatory environment, adverse political developments,
prevailing conditions in the capital markets and interest rate fluctuations.
3. There is no assurance that the Arrangement will be completed or that, if completed, the G3 Shares
will be listed and posted for trading on the CSE.
4. There is no assurance that the Arrangement can be completed as proposed or without G2 Shareholders
exercising their dissent rights in respect of a substantial number of G2 Shares.
5. There is no assurance that the businesses of G2 or G3, after completing the Arrangement, will be
successful.
6. While G2 believes that the G3 Shares to be issued to G2 Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement
will not be subject to any resale restrictions save securities held by control persons and save for any
restrictions flowing from current restrictions associated with a Shareholder's G2 Shares, there is no
assurance that this is the case and each G2 Shareholder is urged to obtain appropriate legal advice
regarding applicable securities legislation.
7. The transactions may give rise to significant adverse tax consequences to G2 Shareholders and each
such G2 Shareholder is urged to consult their own tax advisor.
8. There is no assurance that the number of G3 Shares to be issued to G2 Shareholders accurately reflects
the value of the Non-Core Assets.
9. Certain costs related to the Arrangement, such as legal and accounting fees, must be paid by G2 even
if the Arrangement is not completed.
10. If the Arrangement Resolution or the Stated Capital Resolution is not approved by the G2
Shareholders or, even if the Arrangement Resolution and the Stated Capital Resolution are approved,
as a result of the Non-Core Assets being transferred to G3, an entity separate from G2, the market
price of the G2 Shares may decline to the extent that the current market price of the G2 Shares reflects
a market assumption that the Plan of Arrangement will be completed or to the extent the current
market price of the G2 Shares reflects the value associated with the Non-Core Assets, as applicable.

procedural matters. A copy of the Interim Order and the Notice of Application for Final Order are appended
as Schedules J and K, respectively, to this Circular. As set out in the Notice of Application for Final Order,
the Court hearing in respect of the Final Order is scheduled to take place at 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on
December 3, 2025, following the Meeting or as soon thereafter as the Court may direct or counsel for G2 may

Shareholders who wish to participate in or be represented at the Court hearing should consult with
their legal advisors as to the necessary requirements.
At the Court hearing, any G2 Shareholders who wish to participate or to be represented or to present evidence
or argument must serve and file a notice of appearance as set out in the Notice of Application for the Final
Order and satisfy any other requirements of the Court. At the hearing, the Court will consider, among other
things, the fairness and reasonableness of the terms and conditions of the Arrangement and the rights and
interests of every person affected. The Court may approve the Arrangement in any manner the Court may
direct, subject to compliance with such terms and conditions, if any, as the Court deems fit. The Court's
approval is required for the Arrangement to become effective.
Regulatory Approvals
If each of the Arrangement Resolution and the Stated Capital Resolution is approved by G2 Shareholders by
the requisite majorities, final regulatory approval must be obtained for all the transactions contemplated by
the Arrangement before the Arrangement may proceed.
The G2 Shares are currently listed and posted for trading on the TSX. G2 is a reporting issuer in the Reporting
Jurisdictions. Approval from the TSX is required for the completion of the Arrangement, conditional
acceptance having been obtained on October 21, 2025. Upon completion of the Arrangement, G3 will be a
reporting issuer in the Reporting Jurisdictions, and intends to seek a listing of the G3 Shares on the CSE. G3
has applied to list the G3 Shares on the CSE. Any listing will be subject to the approval of the CSE.
G2 Shareholders should be aware that certain of the foregoing approvals have not yet been received from the
regulatory authorities referred to above. There is no assurance that such approvals will be obtained.
TSX Approval and "Due Bills" Trading
Pursuant to the Arrangement, G2 Shareholders of record as of the close of business on the Effective Date will
receive one G3 Share for every two G2 Shares then held by each G2 Shareholder, subject to the "due bills"
trading procedure described below. Completion of the Arrangement remains subject to the final approval of,
and customary filings with, the TSX, and is expected to close in (i.e. have an Effective Date in) December,
2025.
56
If the Final Order is received and all other conditions to closing the Arrangement have been satisfied or
waived, the TSX has advised that the G2 Shares are expected to commence trading on a "due bill" basis
effective from the opening of markets on the Effective Date until the close of business on the date that is three
Business Days following the Effective Date (the "payment date"). Trades of G2 Shares during this time will
have a due bill attached which will allow the purchaser of G2 Shares, rather than the seller of G2 Shares, to
receive the distribution of G3 Shares pursuant to the Arrangement even if such trades are settled after the
Effective Time on the Effective Date. It is expected that effective at the opening of markets on the first trading
day following the payment date, the G2 Shares will commence trading on an ex-distribution basis without
any due bill entitlement reflecting that the distribution of G3 Shares has occurred. These dates will be
confirmed in a press release to be issued by G2, which press release is expected to be issued in December,
2025.

Notes:
(1) The information as to G2 Shares beneficially owned (directly or indirectly) or over which the director or officer exercises control
or direction not being within the knowledge of G2 has been furnished by the respective directors and officers individually.
(2) Holders of G2 Shares will receive one G3 Share for every two G2 Shares as described in the Plan of Arrangement. See
"Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon The Arrangement Principal Steps of the Arrangement".
Procedure for Receipt of G3 Shares
As soon as practicable after the Effective Date, the Transfer Agent will forward to each Registered
Shareholder at the Effective Time who has not dissented to the Arrangement, DRS Statements representing
the G3 Shares to which they are entitled under the Arrangement.
57
DRS is a system that will allow registered G3 Shareholders to hold their G3 Shares in "book-entry" form
without having a physical share certificate issued as evidence of ownership. Instead, G3 Shares will be held
in the name of G2 Registered Shareholders and registered electronically in G3's records, which will be
maintained by the Transfer Agent, TSX Trust Company. The first time G3 Shares are recorded under DRS
(upon completion of the Arrangement), registered G3 Shareholders will receive an initial DRS Statement
acknowledging the number of G3 Shares held in their DRS account. Anytime that there is movement of G3
Shares into or out of a registered G3 Shareholder's DRS account, an updated DRS Statement will be mailed.
Registered G3 Shareholders may request a statement at any time by contacting the Transfer Agent. There is
no fee to participate in DRS and dividends, if any, will not be affected by DRS.
You will receive the DRS Statement in lieu of physical share certificates evidencing the G3 Shares that you
are entitled to following completion of the Arrangement. Instructions will be provided upon receipt of the
DRS Statements representing G3 Shares for Registered holders of G3 Shares that would like to request a
physical G3 Share certificate. Only Registered Shareholders will receive a DRS Statement representing G3
Shares.
G2 Shareholders as of the close of business on the Effective Date (being the date of certification of the Articles
of Arrangement by the Director in accordance with Section 192(8) of the CBCA) will be entitled to receive
G3 Shares under the Arrangement. The Effective Date is expected to be in February, 2025, and will be
announced by the Company following the Meeting (subject to Shareholder approval of the Arrangement).
The payout date for the G3 Shares to be distributed to G2 Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement is
expected to be three Business Days following the Effective Date.
G2 Shareholders should not deliver certificates or DRS Statements for G2 Shares to the Transfer Agent
as certificates or DRS Statements representing G2 Shares are not being exchanged pursuant to the
Arrangement.
Fees and Expenses
G2 will pay the costs, fees and expenses of the Arrangement.
Effective Date of Arrangement
If: (1) each of the Arrangement Resolution and the Stated Capital Resolution is approved by special resolution
of the G2 Shareholders, (2) the Final Order of the Court is obtained approving the Arrangement; (3) the
required TSX approvals to the completion of the Arrangement are obtained; (4) every requirement of the
CBCA relating to the Arrangement has been complied with; and (5) all other conditions disclosed under
"Arrangement Agreement Conditions to the Arrangement Becoming Effective" are met or waived, the
Arrangement will become effective on the Effective Date.
The full particulars of the Arrangement are contained in the Plan of Arrangement appended as Schedule C to
this Circular. See also "Arrangement Agreement" below.
Notwithstanding receipt of the above approvals, G2 may abandon the Arrangement without further approval
from the G2 Shareholders.
ARRANGEMENT AGREEMENT
The Arrangement will be carried out pursuant to the provisions of the CBCA and will be effected in
accordance with the Arrangement Agreement, the Interim Order and the Final Order. The steps of the
58
Arrangement, as set out in the Arrangement Agreement, are summarized under "Particulars of Matters to be
Acted Upon The Arrangement Principal Steps of the Arrangement" herein.
The general description of the Arrangement Agreement which follows is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the full text of the Arrangement Agreement, a copy of which is available under G2's profile on SEDAR+
at www.sedarplus.ca.
General
On October 15, 2025, G2 and G3 entered into the Arrangement Agreement which includes the Plan of
Arrangement. The Plan of Arrangement is reproduced as Schedule C to this Circular. Pursuant to the
Arrangement Agreement, G2 and G3 agree to effect the Arrangement pursuant to the provisions of
Section 192 of the CBCA on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Arrangement Agreement.
In the Arrangement Agreement, G2 and G3 provide representations and warranties to one another regarding
certain customary commercial matters, including corporate, legal and other matters, relating to their
respective affairs.
Under the Arrangement Agreement, G2 will call the Meeting for the purpose of, among other matters, the G2
Shareholders approving the Arrangement Resolution and the Stated Capital Resolution, and that, if the
approval of the G2 Shareholders of the Arrangement Resolution and the Stated Capital Resolution as set forth
in the Interim Order is obtained by G2, as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, G2 will take the necessary
steps to submit the Arrangement to the Court and apply for the Final Order.
Conditions to the Arrangement Becoming Effective
The respective obligations of G2 and G3 to complete the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement
Agreement are subject to the satisfaction, on or before the Effective Date, of a number of conditions
precedent, certain of which may only be waived in accordance with the Arrangement Agreement. The mutual

shall have been granted in form and substance satisfactory to G2, and shall not have been set aside or
modified in a manner unacceptable to G2, on appeal or otherwise;
(d) all governmental, court, regulatory, third party and other approvals, consents, expiry of waiting
periods, waivers, permits, exemptions, orders and agreements and all amendments and modifications
to, and terminations of, agreements, indentures and arrangements considered by G2 to be necessary
or desirable for the Arrangement to become effective shall have been obtained or received on terms
that are satisfactory to G2;
(e) no action will have been instituted and be continuing on the Effective Date for an injunction to

59
or similar order with respect to any securities of any of the parties will have been issued and remain
outstanding;
(f) none of the consents, orders, rulings, approvals or assurances required for the implementation of the
Arrangement will contain terms or conditions or require undertakings or security deemed
unsatisfactory or unacceptable by G2;
(g) no law, regulation or policy will have been proposed, enacted, promulgated or applied that interferes
or is inconsistent with the completion of the Arrangement; and
(h) the Arrangement Agreement shall not have been terminated.
The obligations of each of G2 and G3 to complete the Arrangement are subject to the further condition that
the covenants of the other party shall have been duly performed.
Amendment
Subject to any restrictions under the CBCA or in the Final Order, the Arrangement Agreement (including the
schedules appended thereto) may, at any time and from time to time before or after the holding of the Meeting,
but not later than the Effective Date, be amended by written agreement of the parties thereto without, subject
to applicable law, further notice to, or authorization on the part of, the G2 Shareholders. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, any such amendment may:
(a) change the time for performance of any of the obligations or acts of the parties;
(b) waive any inaccuracies or modify any representation contained in the Arrangement Agreement or in
any document to be delivered pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement;
(c) waive compliance with or modify any of the covenants contained in the Arrangement Agreement or

(d) make such alterations in the Arrangement Agreement (including the Plan of Arrangement) as the
parties may consider necessary or desirable in connection with the Interim Order or the Final Order.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain terms of the Arrangement and the Arrangement Agreement, including
required Court, regulatory and G2 Shareholder approval shall not be amended in any material respect without
obtaining any required approval of the G2 Shareholders in the same manner as required for the approval of
the Arrangement or as may be ordered by the Court.
Termination
The Arrangement Agreement may, at any time before or after the holding of the Meeting but prior to the
Effective Date, be unilaterally terminated by G2 without further notice to, or action on the part of, the G2
Shareholders for whatever reason G2 may consider appropriate. The Arrangement Agreement will terminate
without any further action by the parties if the Effective Date has not occurred on or before March 31, 2026
or such later date as G2 may determine.
Upon the termination as provided in the Arrangement Agreement, neither party shall have any liability or
further obligation to the other party.
60
SHAREHOLDERS' RIGHTS OF DISSENT TO THE ARRANGEMENT
As indicated in the Notice of Meeting, any registered G2 Shareholder is entitled to be paid the fair value of
their G2 Shares in accordance with Section 190 of the CBCA if such holder dissents to the Arrangement and
the Arrangement becomes effective.
In accordance with Section 3.3 of the Plan of Arrangement, in addition to any other restrictions in the CBCA,
none of the following shall be entitled to exercise Dissent Rights: (a) holders of Options and RSUs; and (b)
G2 Shareholders who vote (or have instructed a proxyholder to vote) in favour of the Arrangement Resolution.
A Registered Shareholder is not entitled to dissent with respect to such holder's G2 Shares if such holder
votes any of their G2 Shares in favour of the Arrangement Resolution. For greater certainty, a proxy submitted
by a registered G2 Shareholder that does not contain voting instructions will, unless revoked, be voted in
favour of the Arrangement. A brief summary of the provisions of Section 190 of the CBCA is set out below.
Section 190 of the CBCA
A dissenting Registered Shareholder has until 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on November 25, 2025 to send to G2
with respect to the Arrangement Resolution a written notice of dissent pursuant to Section 190 of the CBCA
and the Arrangement Agreement by registered mail. Within ten days after the G2 Shareholders adopt the
Arrangement Resolution, G2 will send to each dissenting Registered Shareholder who has filed an objection
notice a notice stating that the Arrangement Resolution has been adopted (the "Company Notice"). A
Company Notice is not required to be sent to any Registered Shareholder who voted for the Arrangement
Resolution or who has withdrawn the objection notice.
The dissenting Registered Shareholder then has 20 days after receipt of the Company Notice or, if the
dissenting Registered Shareholder does not receive a Company Notice, within 20 days after learning that the
Arrangement Resolution has been adopted, to send to G2 a written notice (the "Demand Notice") containing
the dissenting Registered Shareholder's name and address, the number of G2 Shares in respect of which the
dissenting Registered Shareholder dissents and a demand for payment of the fair value of such G2 Shares. A
dissenting Registered Shareholder must, within 30 days after sending the Demand Notice, send the certificates
or DRS Statements representing the G2 Shares in respect of which the dissenting Registered Shareholder
dissents to G2 or else the dissenting Registered Shareholder will lose such right to make a claim for the fair
value of the G2 Shares. On sending the Demand Notice, the dissenting Registered Shareholder ceases to have
any rights as a G2 Shareholder except the right to be paid the fair value of their G2 Shares in respect of which
the dissent has been given, except where the Registered Shareholder withdraws the Demand Notice before
G2 sends its Offer to Purchase (as defined below), or G2 decides not to proceed with the Arrangement, in
which case such registered G2 Shareholder's rights are reinstated as of the date the dissenting Registered
Shareholder sent the Demand Notice.
G2 is required, not later than seven days after the later of the Effective Date or the date G2 receives a Demand
Notice, to deliver to each dissenting Registered Shareholder a written offer (the "Offer to Purchase") to pay
for the G2 Shares held by the dissenting Registered Shareholder in an amount considered by the directors of
G2 to be the fair value thereof, accompanied by a statement showing how the fair value was determined.
Every Offer to Purchase shall be on the same terms as all other Offers to Purchase for the same class and
series of G2 Shares. Dissenting Registered Shareholders who accept the Offer to Purchase will, unless such
payment is prohibited by the CBCA, be paid within ten days. The Offer to Purchase lapses if G2 does not
receive an acceptance within 30 days after the date on which the Offer to Purchase was made.
If G2 fails to make the Offer to Purchase, or the dissenting Registered Shareholder fails to accept the Offer
to Purchase, G2 may apply to a court to fix a fair value for the G2 Shares held by dissenting Registered
61
Shareholders within 50 days after the Arrangement is given effect or within such further period as the court
may allow. Upon any such application by G2, G2 shall notify each affected dissenting Registered Shareholder
of the date, place and consequences of the application and of such dissenting Registered Shareholder's right
to appear and be heard in person or by counsel. If G2 fails to make such an application, a dissenting Registered
Shareholder has the right to so apply within a further period of 20 days or within such further period as the
court may allow. The applications referred to above shall be made to a court having jurisdiction in the place
where G2 has its registered office (currently being Toronto, Ontario, Canada) or in the province where the
dissenting Registered Shareholder resides if G2 carries on business in that province. All dissenting Registered
Shareholders whose G2 Shares have not been purchased by G2 will be joined as parties to the application and
will be bound by the decision of the Court. The Court may determine whether any person is a dissenting
Registered Shareholder who should be joined as a party and the Court will fix a fair value for the G2 Shares
of all dissenting Registered Shareholders. In its discretion, the Court may appoint one or more appraisers to
assist the Court to fix a fair value for the shares of the dissenting Registered Shareholder. A Court may
include, in its discretion, a reasonable rate of interest on the amount payable to each dissenting Registered
Shareholder from the effective date of the Arrangement until the date of payment. The final order of a Court
would be rendered against the corporation in favour of each dissenting Registered Shareholder and for the
amount of the shares as fixed by the Court.
Address for Notice
All notices of dissent to the Arrangement pursuant to Section 190 of the CBCA should be sent, within the
time specified, to:

Strict Compliance with Dissent Provisions Required
The foregoing summary does not purport to provide a comprehensive statement of the procedures to be
followed by a dissenting Registered Shareholder who seeks payment of the fair value of their G2 Shares. The
CBCA requires strict adherence to the procedures established therein and failure to do so may result in the
loss of all dissenter's rights. Accordingly, each Registered Shareholder who might desire to exercise the
dissenter's rights should carefully consider and comply with the dissent provisions of the CBCA, the full text
of which is set out in Schedule L to this Circular, and consult such holder's legal advisor.
CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS
THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE ARRANGEMENT MAY VARY DEPENDING UPON THE
PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES OF EACH G2 SHAREHOLDER AND OTHER FACTORS.
ACCORDINGLY, G2 SHAREHOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX
ADVISORS TO DETERMINE THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE
ARRANGEMENT.
The following is, as of the date hereof, a summary of the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations
under the Tax Act relating to the Arrangement generally applicable to a beneficial owner of G2 Shares who,
for the purposes of the Tax Act and at all relevant times: (i) holds G2 Shares, and will hold G3 Shares acquired
62
under the Arrangement, as capital property; (ii) deals at arm's length with G2 and G3; and (iii) is not
"affiliated" with G2 or G3 for the purposes of the Tax Act (a "Holder").
G2 Shares and G3 Shares will generally be considered to be capital property to a Holder unless such securities
are held by the Holder in the course of carrying on a business of buying and selling securities, or were acquired
in one or more transactions considered to be an adventure or concern in the nature of trade.
This summary is based upon the current provisions of the Tax Act and counsel's understanding of the current
administrative practices and assessing policies of the CRA. This summary also takes into account all specific
proposals to amend the Tax Act (the "Proposed Amendments") announced by or on behalf of the Minister
of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof and assumes that all Proposed Amendments will be enacted in
the form proposed. There can be no assurance that the Proposed Amendments will be enacted in the form
proposed or at all. Except for the Proposed Amendments, this summary does not take into account or
anticipate any changes in law, whether by legislative, governmental or judicial action or decision, nor does it
take into account other federal or any provincial, territorial or foreign income tax considerations, which may
differ from the Canadian federal income tax considerations discussed below. An advance income tax ruling
will not be sought from the CRA in respect of the Arrangement.
This summary is not applicable to a Holder: (i) that is a "financial institution" as defined in the Tax Act for
the purposes of the "mark-to-market property" rules contained in the Tax Act; (ii) that is a "specified financial
institution" or "restricted financial institution" as defined in the Tax Act; (iii) who has acquired G2 Shares on
the exercise of an employee stock option of G2 prior to the Effective Time; (iv) an interest in which is, or
whose G2 Shares or G3 Shares are, a "tax shelter investment" as defined in the Tax Act; (v) that has elected
to determine its "Canadian tax results" in a currency other than Canadian currency pursuant to the "functional
currency reporting" rules in the Tax Act; (vi) that has entered, or will enter, into a "synthetic disposition
agreement", or a "derivative forward agreement", each as defined in the Tax Act, with respect to the G2
Shares or G3 Shares; (vii) that is exempt from tax under Part I of the Tax Act; or (viii) that is a corporation
resident in Canada (for the purpose of the Tax Act) or a corporation that does not deal at arm's length (for
purposes of the Tax Act) with a corporation resident in Canada, and that is or becomes as part of a transaction
or event or series of transactions or events that includes the acquisition of the G3 Shares, controlled by a non-
resident person, or group of non-resident persons not dealing with each other at arm's length for the purposes
of the foreign affiliate dumping rules in Section 212.3 of the Tax Act. Such Holders should consult their own
tax advisors.
THIS SUMMARY IS OF A GENERAL NATURE ONLY AND IS NOT, AND IS NOT INTENDED
TO BE, NOR SHOULD IT BE CONSTRUED TO BE, LEGAL OR TAX ADVICE TO ANY
PARTICULAR HOLDER AND NO REPRESENTATIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE TAX
CONSEQUENCES TO ANY PARTICULAR HOLDER ARE MADE. THIS SUMMARY IS NOT
EXHAUSTIVE OF ALL CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS.
ACCORDINGLY, HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS HAVING
REGARD TO THEIR OWN PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.
Assumptions Regarding Return of Capital
Pursuant to the Arrangement, G2 will distribute one G3 Share for every two G2 Shares then held by G2
Shareholders as of the Effective Date (the "Distribution"). The achievement of the intended tax treatment of
the Distribution depends on the fair market value of the G3 Shares, the "paid-up capital" of G2, and on a
number of other important assumptions, including those referenced below. No third-party determination of
such fair market value or paid-up capital has been sought or obtained, and no legal opinion or advance tax
ruling has been sought or obtained with respect to the various assumptions or the tax treatment of the
Distribution. Accordingly, there is a risk that the actual tax treatment under the Tax Act could be different
63
from the intended tax treatment. All Holders are advised to consult with their own tax advisors in this regard
in light of their particular circumstances.
Distributions made by corporations that are "public corporations" for purposes of the Tax Act, such as G2,
are generally characterized as taxable dividends for the purposes of the Tax Act, unless a specific exemption
applies. Subsection 84(2) of the Tax Act provides, in effect, that a distribution made to shareholders on a
"winding up, discontinuance or reorganization of its [G2's] business", will not be taxed as a dividend so long
as the amount or value of the funds or property distributed does not exceed the amount by which the "paid-
up capital", as defined for the purposes of the Tax Act (the "PUC"), of the relevant shares is reduced on the
distribution.
It is noted that the Distribution is being made by G2 as part of a number of intended business changes that
are contemplated in order to divest G2 of the Non-Core Assets and maximize the overall value of the G2
assets for G2 Shareholders. Management believes that the Distribution is effectively being made on the
reorganization of G2's business, although this determination is not free from doubt under the Tax Act or CRA
policy, and no legal opinion or advance tax ruling has been sought or obtained in this regard.
Subsection 84(4.1) of the Tax Act applies in certain circumstances to deem a return of PUC by a public
corporation (such as G2) to be a dividend. However, subsection 84(4.1) of the Tax Act should not apply to
the Distribution provided that: (i) the Distribution can reasonably be considered to have been derived from
proceeds of disposition realized by G2 from a transaction that occurred outside the ordinary course of the
business of G2 but and the period that commenced 24 months before the Distribution; and (ii) no other amount
that may reasonably be considered to have been derived from such proceeds was paid by G2 as a reduction
of PUC prior to the Distribution. Management of G2 believes that within the context of the Arrangement, the
G3 Shares can reasonably be considered to represent proceeds of disposition realized by G2 from a transaction
that occurred outside the ordinary course of G2's business (and that no amount that may reasonably be
considered to have been derived from such proceeds will have been paid by G2 on a reduction of PUC prior
to the Distribution), although this determination is not free from doubt under the Tax Act or CRA policy, and
no legal opinion or advance tax ruling has been sought or obtained in this regard.
Management of G2 believes that the PUC of the G2 Shares will exceed the fair market value of the G3 Shares
on the date the Distribution is effected, and it is therefore assumed that no dividend will be considered or
deemed to arise for purposes of the Tax Act with respect to the Distribution.
The summary of tax consequences set out below assumes that:
dot the Distribution is made on a "winding up, discontinuance or reorganization" of G2's business;
dot the Distribution can reasonably be considered to have been derived from proceeds of disposition
realized by G2 from a transaction that occurred outside the ordinary course of the business of G2 and
within the period that commenced 24 months before the Distribution; and no other amount that may
reasonably be considered to have derived from such proceeds was paid by G2 on a reduction of PUC
prior to the Distribution; and
dot the PUC of the G2 Shares will exceed the fair market value of the G3 Shares on the date the
Distribution is effected.
If the Distribution is treated as a dividend (including a deemed dividend) or taxable shareholder benefit
under the Tax Act, the tax results to Holders would be materially different, and likely materially
adverse, compared to those set out in the summary of tax consequences below. Such potentially
64
different and adverse tax treatment is not further referenced or discussed in this summary, and Holders
should consult their own tax advisors in this regard.
Holders Resident in Canada
The following portion of this summary applies to a Holder who, at all relevant times is or is deemed to be
resident in Canada for purposes of the Tax Act (a "Resident Holder").
Certain Resident Holders whose G2 Shares or G3 Shares might not otherwise be capital property may, in
certain circumstances, be entitled to make an irrevocable election under subsection 39(4) of the Tax Act to
deem such shares, and every other "Canadian security" as defined in the Tax Act owned by such Holder in
the taxation year in which the election is made and in all subsequent taxation years, to be capital property.
Any Resident Holder contemplating making a subsection 39(4) election should consult their tax advisor
for advice as to whether the election is available or advisable in their particular circumstances.
Distribution of G3 Shares by G2
Based on the assumptions referred to above under "Assumptions Regarding Return of Capital", no portion of
the amount so distributed pursuant to the Distribution will be deemed to be a dividend for purposes of the
Tax Act and the adjusted cost base to a Resident Holder of its G2 Shares will be reduced by the fair market
value at the Effective Time of the G3 Shares received by such Resident Holder. If such fair market value
exceeds the adjusted cost base to the Resident Holder of its G2 Shares immediately before the Distribution,
the Resident Holder will be deemed to realize a capital gain from a disposition of its G2 Shares equal to the
amount of such excess and the adjusted cost base to the Resident Holder of its G2 Shares will immediately
thereafter be deemed to be nil. The tax treatment of capital gains is discussed below under "Holders Resident
in Canada Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses".
Dividends on G3 Shares
In the case of a Resident Holder who is an individual (including certain trusts), dividends received or deemed
to be received on their G3 Shares will be included in computing the individual's income and will be subject
to the gross-up and dividend tax credit rules in the Tax Act normally applicable to a "taxable dividend"
received from a "taxable Canadian corporation", including the enhanced dividend tax credit rules applicable
to any dividends designated as "eligible dividends", each as defined in the Tax Act. There may be limitations
on G3's ability to designate dividends as "eligible dividends".
In the case of a Resident Holder that is a corporation, dividends received or deemed to be received on its G3
Shares will be included in computing its income, but generally the corporation will be entitled to deduct an
equivalent amount in computing its taxable income. In certain circumstances, subsection 55(2) of the Tax Act
will treat a taxable dividend received by a Resident Holder that is a corporation as proceeds of disposition or
a capital gain. Resident Holders that are corporations should consult their own tax advisors having regard to
their own circumstances.
A Resident Holder that is a "private corporation" as defined in the Tax Act or a "subject corporation" as
defined in the Tax Act may be liable under Part IV of the Tax Act to pay a refundable tax on any dividend
that it receives or is deemed to receive on its G3 Shares to the extent that the dividend is deductible in
computing the corporation's taxable income.
65
Disposition of G3 Shares
A Resident Holder that disposes or is deemed to dispose (other than a disposition to G3 that is not a sale in
the open market in the manner in which shares would normally be purchased by any member of the public in
an open market) of a G3 Share in a taxation year will realize a capital gain (or a capital loss) equal to the
amount by which the proceeds of disposition of the share exceed (or are less than) the aggregate of the
adjusted cost base to the Resident Holder of such share, determined immediately before the disposition, and
any reasonable costs of disposition. See "Holders Resident in Canada Taxation of Capital Gains and
Capital Losses" below for a description of the treatment of capital gains and capital losses under the Tax Act.
Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses
Generally, a Resident Holder will be required to include in computing its income for a taxation year one-half
of the amount of any capital gain (a "taxable capital gain") realized by it in that year. Subject to and in
accordance with the provisions of the Tax Act, a Resident Holder will generally be required to deduct one-
half of the amount of any capital loss (an "allowable capital loss") realized in a taxation year from taxable
capital gains realized by the Resident Holder in that year. Allowable capital losses in excess of taxable capital
gains for a taxation year may be carried back to any of the three preceding taxation years or carried forward
to any subsequent taxation year and deducted against net taxable capital gains realized in such years, subject
to the detailed rules contained in the Tax Act.
A capital loss realized on the disposition of a G3 Share by a Resident Holder that is a corporation may, to the
extent and under the circumstances specified by the Tax Act, be reduced by the amount of dividends received
or deemed to have been received by the corporation on such shares (or on a share for which such share is
substituted or exchanged). Similar rules may apply where the corporation is a member of a partnership or a
beneficiary of a trust that owns such shares, or where a partnership or trust of which the corporation is a
member or beneficiary is a member of a partnership or a beneficiary of a trust that owns such shares. Resident
Holders to whom these rules may be relevant should consult their own advisors.
Other Income Taxes
A Resident Holder that is, throughout the relevant taxation year, a "Canadian-controlled private corporation"
(as defined in the Tax Act) or that is, at any time in the relevant taxation year, a "substantive CCPC" (as
defined the Tax Act) may be liable to pay an additional refundable tax on its "aggregate investment income"
(as defined in the Tax Act), including amounts in respect of any dividends or deemed dividends that are not
deductible in computing the Resident Holder's taxable income, interest and taxable capital gains.
A capital gain realized, or a dividend received, by a Resident Holder who is an individual (including certain
trusts) may give rise to liability for alternative minimum tax under the Tax Act.
Dissenting Resident Holders
A Resident Holder who, as a result of the exercise of Dissent Rights, is entitled to be paid the fair value of its
G2 Shares by G2 (a "Resident Dissenter") will be deemed to have received a dividend equal to the amount,
if any, by which the payment received (other than any portion of the payment that is interest awarded by a
court) exceeds the "paid-up capital" (determined for purposes of the Tax Act) attributable to such shares
immediately before their surrender to G2 pursuant to the Arrangement. The amount of any such deemed
dividend will be included in calculating such Resident Dissenter's income for the taxation year and will
reduce the proceeds of disposition for purposes of computing the Resident Dissenter's capital gain or capital
loss on the disposition of its G2 Shares. The tax treatment accorded to any deemed dividend is discussed
generally above under the heading "Holders Resident in Canada Dividends on G3 Shares".
66
The tax treatment of capital gains and capital losses is discussed generally above under the heading "Holders
Resident in Canada Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses".
Interest (if any) awarded by a court to a Resident Dissenter will be included in the Resident Dissenter's
income for purposes of the Tax Act.
Resident Dissenters who are contemplating exercising their dissent rights should consult their own tax
advisors.
Holders Not Resident in Canada
The following portion of the summary applies to a Holder who, for the purposes of the Tax Act, and at all
relevant times: (i) is not and is not deemed to be resident in Canada; and (ii) does not and will not use or hold,
and is not and will not be deemed to use or hold, G2 Shares or G3 Shares in connection with carrying on a
business in Canada (a "Non-Resident Holder"). This portion of the summary is not applicable to a Non-
Resident Holder that is: (i) an insurer carrying on an insurance business in Canada and elsewhere; or (ii) an
"authorized foreign bank" as defined in the Tax Act.
Distribution of G3 Shares by G2
Based on the assumptions referred to above under "Assumptions Regarding Return of Capital", no portion of
the amount so distributed will be deemed to be a dividend for purposes of the Tax Act and the adjusted cost
base to a Non-Resident Holder of its G2 Shares will be reduced by the fair market value of the G3 Shares
received by such Non-Resident Holder. If such fair market value exceeds the adjusted cost base to the Non-
Resident Holder of its G2 Shares immediately before the Distribution, the Non-Resident Holder will be
deemed to realize a capital gain from a disposition of its G2 Shares equal to the amount of such excess and
the adjusted cost base to the Non-Resident Holder of its G2 Shares will immediately thereafter be deemed to
be nil.
Based on this assumption, G2's advice with respect to the paid-up capital of the G2 Shares, and the
assumption that the requirements of paragraphs 84(4.1)(a) and (b) of the Tax Act or subsection 84(2) of the
Tax Act are met, no portion of the amount so distributed will be deemed to be a dividend for purposes of the
Tax Act and the adjusted cost base to a Non-Resident Holder of its G2 Shares will be reduced by the fair
market value of the G3 Shares received by such Non-Resident Holder. If such fair market value exceeds the
adjusted cost base to the Non-Resident Holder of its G2 Shares immediately before the distribution, the Non-
Resident Holder will be deemed to realize a capital gain from a disposition of its G2 Shares equal to the
amount of such excess and the adjusted cost base to the Non-Resident Holder of its G2 Shares will
immediately thereafter be deemed to be nil.
Non-Resident Holders will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act in respect of any capital gain realized on
any such deemed disposition of the G2 Shares unless such G2 Shares are, or are deemed to be, "taxable
Canadian property", as defined in the Tax Act, of the Non-Resident Holder at the time of disposition and the
Non-Resident Holder is not entitled to relief under an applicable income tax treaty or convention between
Canada and the Non-Resident Holder's country of residence. For a general discussion of when shares will
constitute "taxable Canadian property" of a Non-Resident Holder, see below under "Holders Not Resident in
Canada Disposition of G3 Shares".
In the event that the G2 Shares are, or are deemed to be, "taxable Canadian property" of a Non-Resident
Holder and the capital gain realized upon a disposition of such G2 Shares is not exempt from tax under the
Tax Act by virtue of an applicable income tax convention, the tax consequences as described above under
67
"Holders Resident in Canada Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses" will generally apply. Such
Non-Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisors in this regard.
Dividends on G3 Shares
Dividends paid or credited, or deemed to be paid or credited, on G3 Shares to a Non-Resident Holder generally
will be subject to Canadian withholding tax at a rate of 25% of the gross amount of the dividend, unless the
rate is reduced under the provisions of an applicable income tax convention. The rate of withholding tax under
the Canada-United States Tax Convention, 1980, as amended (the "U.S. Treaty") applicable to a Non-
Resident Holder, who is a resident of the United States for the purposes of the U.S. Treaty, is the beneficial
owner of the dividend, and is entitled to all of the benefits under the U.S. Treaty generally will be 15%
(reduced to 5% for a company that holds at least 10% of the voting stock of G3, as the case may be). G3 will
be required to withhold the required amount of withholding tax from the dividend, and to remit it to the CRA
for the account of the Non-Resident Holder.
Disposition of G3 Shares
A Non-Resident Holder will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act on the disposition or deemed disposition
of G3 Shares, nor will capital losses arising therefrom be recognized under the Tax Act, unless the G3 Shares
constitute "taxable Canadian property" to the Non-Resident Holder for purposes of the Tax Act and the Non-
Resident Holder is not entitled to relief under an applicable income tax treaty or convention.
Generally, a G3 Share will not constitute taxable Canadian property of a Non-Resident Holder at the time of
disposition provided that at such time the G3 Shares are listed on a "designated stock exchange" for the
purposes of the Tax Act (which currently includes the CSE), unless at any time during the 60-month period
immediately preceding the disposition,
(a) 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of the capital stock of G3 were owned by or
belonged to any combination of (a) the Non-Resident Holder, (b) persons with whom the Non-
Resident Holder did not deal at arm's length, and (c) partnerships in which the Non-Resident Holder
or a person described in (b) holds a membership interest directly or indirectly through one or more
partnerships; and
(b) more than 50% of the fair market value of the G3 Shares was derived, directly or indirectly, from one
or any combination of real or immovable property situated in Canada, "Canadian resource property"
(as defined in the Tax Act), "timber resource property" (as defined in the Tax Act), or options in
respect of, interests in, or for civil law rights in such properties, whether or not such property exists.
In certain circumstances, a Non-Resident Holder's G3 Shares may also be deemed to be taxable Canadian
property for purposes of the Tax Act. Non-Resident Holders should consult with their own tax advisors as to
whether G3 Shares constitute taxable Canadian property having regard to their particular circumstances.
Even if the G3 Shares are taxable Canadian property to a Non-Resident Holder, any taxable capital gain
resulting from the disposition of such shares will not be included in computing the Non-Resident Holder's
income for the purposes of the Tax Act if the shares constitute "treaty-protected property" as defined in the
Tax Act. The G3 Shares owned by a Non-Resident Holder will generally be treaty-protected property if the
gain from the disposition of the applicable shares or rights would be exempt from tax under the Tax Act
pursuant to the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty.
A Non-Resident Holder whose G3 Shares are "taxable Canadian property" and are not "treaty protected
property" will generally have the same tax considerations as those described above under the headings
68
"Holders Resident in Canada Disposition of G3 Shares" and "Holders Resident in Canada Taxation of
Capital Gains and Capital Losses".
Non-Resident Holders should consult with their own tax advisors for advice having regard to their
particular circumstances.
Dissenting Non-Resident Holders
A Non-Resident Holder who, as a result of the exercise of Dissent Rights, is entitled to be paid the fair value
of its G2 Shares by G2 (a "Non-Resident Dissenter") will be deemed to have received a dividend equal to
the amount, if any, by which such payment (other than any portion of the payment that is interest awarded by
a court) exceeds the "paid-up capital" (determined for purposes of the Tax Act) attributable to such shares
immediately before their surrender to G2 pursuant to the Arrangement. Any such deemed dividend will be
treated in the same manner as described above under the heading "Holders Not Resident in Canada
Dividends on G3 Shares".
A Non-Resident Holder will realize a capital gain (or capital loss) to the extent that the payment of fair value
by G2, net of any reasonable costs of disposition, exceeds (or is less than) the adjusted cost base of the Non-
Resident Holder's G2 Shares. The taxation of capital gains and losses is discussed above under the heading
"Holders Not Resident in Canada Disposition of G3 Shares". For purposes of computing the amount of any
capital gain on the disposition of the Non-Resident Dissenter's G2 Shares, the Non-Resident Holder's
proceeds of disposition will be reduced by the amount of any deemed dividend received by the Non-Resident
Holder as described in the immediately preceding paragraph.
Interest (if any) awarded by a court to a Non-Resident Dissenter generally should not be subject to
withholding or income tax under the Tax Act.
ELIGIBILITY FOR INVESTMENT
At the Effective Time, the G3 Shares will be qualified investments under the Tax Act for trusts governed by
a "registered retirement savings plan", "registered retirement income fund", "registered education savings
plan", "registered disability savings plan", "tax-free savings account", "first home savings account"
(collectively, "Registered Plans") or a "deferred profit sharing plan" ("DPSP") (all as defined in the Tax
Act), provided that, at the Effective Time, the G3 Shares are listed on a "designated stock exchange" as
defined in the Tax Act (which includes the CSE) or G3 is a "public corporation", as defined in the Tax Act.
If the G3 Shares are not listed on a "designated stock exchange" at the Effective Time, G3 may qualify at the
Effective Time as a "public corporation" provided that on or before the filing due date of G3's Canadian
federal income tax return for its first taxation year, G3 Shares are listed on a "designated stock exchange" (as
defined in the Tax Act) and G3 makes an election to be deemed to have been a public corporation from its
date of incorporation. The making of such an election would have the retroactive effect of making the G3
Shares a qualified investment for Registered Plans and DPSPs on the Effective Date. G3 intends to list its
shares and make such election; however, there can be no assurance that G3 will make such election. G3
Shareholders who intend to hold G3 Shares in a Registered Plan or DPSP should consult their own tax
advisors with respect to the Canadian federal income tax consequences of G3 not qualifying as a public
corporation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the G3 Shares are a "prohibited investment" within the meaning of the Tax
Act for a Registered Plan, the annuitant, holder or subscriber, as the case may be (the "Controlling
Individual"), of the Registered Plan, will be subject to a penalty tax under the Tax Act. The G3 Shares
generally will not be a prohibited investment for a Registered Plan provided the Controlling Individual of the
69
Registered Plan: (i) deals at arm's length with G3 for the purposes of the Tax Act; and (ii) does not have a
"significant interest" (as defined in the Tax Act for purposes of the prohibited investment rules) in G3. In
addition, the G3 Shares will not be a prohibited investment if such shares are "excluded property" (as defined
in the Tax Act for purposes of the prohibited investment rules) for the Registered Plan.
G3 Shareholders who intend to hold G3 Shares in a Registered Plan or DPSP should consult their own tax
advisors in regard to the application of these rules in their particular circumstances.
SECURITIES LAW CONSIDERATIONS
The following is a brief summary of the securities law considerations applicable to the transactions
contemplated herein.
Canadian Securities Laws and Resale of Securities
Each Shareholder is urged to consult such holder's professional advisors to determine the Canadian conditions
and restrictions applicable to trades in the G3 Shares.
G2 is a "reporting issuer" in the Reporting Jurisdictions. The G2 Shares are currently listed and posted for
trading on the TSX.
Upon completion of the Arrangement, G3 will be a reporting issuer in the Reporting Jurisdictions. G3 has
applied to list the G3 Shares on the CSE. Any listing will be subject to the approval of the CSE.
The issuance of the G3 Shares pursuant to the Arrangement will constitute a distribution of securities, which
is exempt from the prospectus requirements of Canadian securities legislation. The G3 Shares issued pursuant
to the Arrangement may be resold in each of the provinces and territories of Canada, provided the trade is not
a "control distribution" as defined in the applicable securities legislation, no unusual effort is made to prepare
the market or create a demand for those securities, no extraordinary commission or consideration is paid in
respect of the trade, and if the selling security holder is an insider or officer of G3, the selling security holder
has no reasonable grounds to believe that G3 is in default of securities legislation.
The requirements of MI 61-101 are not applicable to the Arrangement, as it does not involve any material
conflict of interest, and is not a "business combination" or a "related party transaction", each as defined in
MI 61-101. The G2 Board determined that a fairness opinion was not required in order to reach the conclusion
that the Arrangement is fair to the Shareholders, since (a) the Shareholders' holdings of G2 Shares will not
change as a result of the Arrangement, and (b) the Shareholders will continue to hold interests in the Non-
Core Assets through their holdings of G3 Shares.
United States Securities Laws and Resale of Securities
The G3 Shares issuable to G2 Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement have not been approved or
disapproved by the SEC or securities regulatory authorities of any state of the United States, nor has the SEC
or any securities authorities of any state in the United States passed on the adequacy or accuracy of this
Circular. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence.
Further information applicable to U.S. G2 Shareholders is disclosed under the heading "Securities Laws
Information for U.S. G2 Shareholders" in this Circular.
70
Status under U.S. Securities Laws
G2 is a "foreign private issuer" as defined under the U.S. Exchange Act. The G2 Shares are not, and will not
be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act and G2 is not subject to the reporting requirements of the U.S.
Exchange Act. Upon completion of the Arrangement, G3 is expected to also be a "foreign private issuer" as
defined under the U.S. Exchange Act. The G3 Shares have not been and will not be registered under the U.S.
Securities Act.
Issuance and Resale of G3 Shares Under U.S. Securities Laws
The issuance of the G3 Shares to U.S. Persons and the subsequent resale of the G3 Shares held by or to U.S.
G2 Shareholders will be subject to U.S. securities laws, including the U.S. Securities Act and any applicable
state securities laws. The following discussion is a general overview of certain requirements of U.S.
securities laws applicable to U.S. G2 Shareholders.
All U.S. G2 Shareholders are urged to consult with legal counsel to ensure that the resale of G3 Shares
issued or issuable to them under the Arrangement complies with applicable securities laws and
regulations.
Exemption from the Registration Requirements of the U.S. Securities Act
SEC Staff Legal Bulletin No. 4 provides that the shares of a subsidiary spun off from a reporting company
are not required to be registered under the U.S. Securities Act when the following five (5) conditions are met:
(1) the parent shareholders do not provide consideration for the spun-off shares; (2) the spin-off is pro-rata
to the parent shareholders; (3) the parent provides adequate information about the spin-off and the subsidiary
to its shareholders and to the trading markets; (4) the parent has a valid business purpose for the spin-off; and
(5) if the parent spins-off "restricted securities," it has held those securities for at least two years. G2 has
structured the Arrangement such that each of the conditions are satisfied by this Arrangement or do not apply,
as is the case with the fifth condition. G2 Shareholders are not providing any consideration for receiving the
spun-off shares, and the issuance of the G3 Shares is being conducted on a pro rata basis to the G2
Shareholders. G2 has a valid business purpose for the spin-off, as described in this Circular under the section
entitled "Particulars of Matters to be Acted Upon The Arrangement Recommendation of the Board".
Finally, the information in this Circular which in providing the information required under Canadian
securities laws is also in substantial compliance with Regulation 14A under the U.S. Exchange Act so that
the G3 Shares will also be exempt from registration under the U.S. Exchange Act. As a result, pro rata
distribution of G3 Shares to G2 Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement is not a an "offer to sell" or a
"disposition for value" within the meaning of Section 2(3) of the U.S. Securities Act and SEC Staff Legal
Bulletin No. 4 regarding spin-offs and consequently the G3 Shares have not and will not be registered under
the U.S. Securities Act or the securities laws of any state of the U.S.
Resale of G3 Shares within the United States after the Completion of the Arrangement
The following discussion does not address the Canadian securities laws that will apply to the issue or resale
of G3 Shares to U.S. G2 Shareholders within Canada. U.S. G2 Shareholders reselling their securities in
Canada must comply with Canadian securities laws, as outlined elsewhere in this Circular.
The G3 Shares to be received by U.S. G2 Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement will be freely transferable
under U.S. federal securities laws except by persons who are "affiliates" (as defined in Rule 405 of the U.S.
Securities Act) of G3 after the Effective Date or were "affiliates" of G3 within 90 days prior to the date of
any proposed resale. Persons who may be deemed to be "affiliates" of an issuer include individuals or entities
that control, are controlled by, or are under common control with, the issuer, whether through the ownership
71
of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise, and generally include executive officers and directors of the
issuer as well as principal shareholders of the issuer. Any resale of such G3 Shares by such an affiliate (or
former affiliate) may be subject to the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, absent an
exemption therefrom.
Such affiliates (and former affiliates) may resell G3 Shares pursuant to Rule 144, if available. In addition,
subject to certain limitations, any such affiliates (and former affiliates) who is an affiliate (or former affiliate)
solely by virtue of being an executive officer or director of G3 may resell such G3 Shares outside the United
States without registration under the U.S. Securities Act pursuant to Regulation S.
Resales by Affiliates Pursuant to Rule 144
In general, under Rule 144, persons who are, or are selling for the account of, affiliates of G3 after the
Arrangement will be entitled to sell in the United States, during any three-month period, a portion of the G3
Shares that they receive in connection with the Arrangement, provided that the number of such securities sold
does not exceed the certain volume restrictions and subject to specified restrictions on manner of sale, notice
requirements, aggregation rules and the availability of current public information about G3 in accordance
with Rule 144.
Resale of Securities Pursuant to Regulation S
In general, pursuant to Regulation S, if at the Effective Date G3 is a "foreign private issuer" (as defined in
Rule 405 of the U.S. Securities Act), persons who are "affiliates" (as defined in Rule 405 of the U.S. Securities
Act) of G3 after the Effective Date, or were "affiliates" of G3 within 90 days prior to the date of the proposed
resale, solely by virtue of their status as an executive officer or director of G3, may sell their G3 Shares
outside the United States in an "offshore transaction" (as defined in Regulation S) if none of the seller, an
affiliate or any person acting on their behalf engages in "directed selling efforts" (as defined in Regulation S)
in the United States with respect to such securities and provided that no selling concession, fee or other
remuneration is paid in connection with such sale other than the usual and customary broker's commission
that would be received by a person executing such transaction as agent. For purposes of Regulation S,
"directed selling efforts" means any activity undertaken for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be
expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the United States for any of the securities being
offered. Also, for purposes of Regulation S, an offer or sale of securities is made in an "offshore transaction"
if the offer is not made to a person in the United States and either (a) at the time the buy order is originated,
the buyer is outside the United States, or the seller reasonably believes that the buyer is outside of the United
States, or (b) the transaction is executed in, on or through the facilities of a "designated offshore securities
market" (as defined in Regulation S), (which would include a sale through the CSE), and neither the seller
nor any person acting on its behalf knows that the transaction has been pre-arranged with a buyer in the United
States. Certain additional restrictions under Regulation S of the U.S. Securities Act are applicable to sales
outside the United States by a holder of G3 Shares who is an "affiliate" of G3 after the Effective Date, or was
an "affiliate" of G3 within 90 days prior to the date of the proposed resale, other than by virtue of their status
as an officer or director of G3.
As a practical matter, the availability of Regulation S for resales of the G3 Shares may depend in part upon
whether G3 maintains a listing for such securities on the CSE. While G3 has applied to list the G3 Shares on
the CSE, the listing is still subject to the approval of the CSE and there can be no assurance that such listing
will be obtained or maintained.
72
Proxy Solicitation Requirements
The solicitation of proxies pursuant to this Circular is not subject to the requirements of Section 14(a) of the
U.S. Exchange Act. Accordingly, this Circular has been prepared in accordance with the disclosure
requirements of Canadian securities law. Such requirements are different than those of the United States
applicable to registration statements under the U.S. Securities Act and proxy statements under the
U.S. Exchange Act. However, in order to comply with conditions of SEC Staff Legal Bulletin No. 4, this
Circular contains information in substantial compliance with Rule 14A under the U.S. Exchange Act.
PARTICULARS OF MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON STATED CAPITAL REDUCTION
At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to approve the Stated Capital Resolution, authorizing the reduction
in the stated capital of the G2 Shares, without any distribution to the Shareholders, by such amount as the
Board determines at the relevant time is required so that the realizable value of G2's assets is not less than
the aggregate of G2's liabilities and the stated capital of the G2 Shares. The approval by the Shareholders of
the Stated Capital Resolution is a condition to the implementation of the Plan of Arrangement.
In accordance with the CBCA, the Stated Capital Resolution must be approved, with or without variation, by
not less than two-thirds of the votes cast at the Meeting in person or by proxy by Shareholders.
Notwithstanding such approval, the Board will be authorized, without further approval of the Shareholders,
to revoke the Stated Capital Resolution at any time before it becomes effective in accordance with the
provisions of the CBCA.
Reasons for the Stated Capital Reduction
Pursuant to Section 192(3) of the CBCA, G2 must not be insolvent in order to apply to the Court for the Final
Order approving the Arrangement. Section 192(2) of the CBCA provides that a corporation is insolvent: (a)
where it is unable to pay its liabilities as they become due; or (b) where the realizable value of the assets of
the corporation are less than the aggregate of its liabilities and stated capital of all assets. To satisfy the
solvency test and implement the Arrangement under the CBCA, the stated capital of the G2 Shares must be
reduced by such amount as the Board determines at the relevant time is required so that the realizable value
of G2's assets is not less than the aggregate of G2's liabilities and the stated capital of the G2 Shares.
The reduction in stated capital will not result in any change to the total shareholders' equity as presented in
G2's financial statements and therefore will not affect G2's book value. The reduction of stated capital will
also have no impact on the day-to-day operations of G2 and will not, on its own, alter the financial condition
of G2.
Restriction on the Reduction of Stated Capital under the CBCA
Section 38(3) of the CBCA provides that a corporation shall not reduce its stated capital if there are reasonable
grounds for believing that: (i) the corporation is, or would after the reduction be, unable to pay its liabilities
as they become due; or (ii) the realizable value of the corporation's assets would thereby be less than the
aggregate of its liabilities.
In recommending the Stated Capital Resolution for approval, the Board has reasonable grounds for believing
that: (i) G2 is, or would, after the proposed stated capital reduction, be able to pay its liabilities as they become
due; and (ii) the realizable value of G2's assets would thereby be equal to or greater than the aggregate of
G2's liabilities.
73
Stated Capital Resolution
The text of the Stated Capital Resolution, which Shareholders will be asked to approve at the Meeting, is set
out below:
"BE IT RESOLVED AS A SPECIAL RESOLUTION THAT:
1. The stated capital of the common shares of G2 Goldfields Inc. ("G2") be reduced by such
amount as the board of directors of G2 determines at the relevant time is required so that the
realizable value of G2's assets is not less than the aggregate of G2's liabilities and the stated
capital of the common shares of G2.
2. Notwithstanding that this special resolution has been duly adopted by the shareholders of G2,
the board of directors of G2 be and it is hereby authorized, in its sole discretion, to revoke
this special resolution in whole or in part at any time prior to its being given effect without
further notice to, or approval of, the shareholders of G2.
3. Any director or officer of G2 is hereby authorized and directed, acting for, in the name of
and on behalf of G2, to execute or cause to be executed, under the seal of G2 or otherwise,
and to deliver or to cause to be delivered, all such documents, agreements and instruments,
and to do or to cause to be done all such other acts and things, as such person determines to
be necessary or desirable in order to carry out the intent of this resolution and the matters
authorized hereby, such determination to be conclusively evidenced by the execution and
delivery of such document, agreement or instrument or the doing of any such act or thing."
Recommendation of the Board
The Board has reviewed the Stated Capital Resolution and concluded that it is fair and reasonable to the
Shareholders and in the best interests of G2.
The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of the Stated Capital Resolution. Each
director and officer of G2 who owns G2 Shares has indicated their intention to vote their G2 Shares in
favour of the Stated Capital Resolution.
PARTICULARS OF MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON CREATION OF NEW CONTROL
PERSON
Pursuant to the Arrangement, Mr. J. Patrick Sheridan, the Executive Chairman of G2 and the proposed
Executive Chairman of G3 following completion of the Arrangement, will have beneficial ownership, control
or direction over approximately 16.0% of the outstanding G3 Shares. Mr. Sheridan anticipates acquiring
additional G3 Shares following completion of the Arrangement such that he may have beneficial ownership,
control or direction over more than 20% of the outstanding G3 Shares.
Pursuant to subsection 4.6(2)(a)(iv) of CSE Policy 4, the CSE requires an issuer to obtain shareholder
approval where, in a proposed transaction involving the issuance of securities, the transaction will materially
affect control of the issuer. CSE Policy 1 defines "materially affect control" as the ability of any security
holder, or a combination of security holders acting together, to influence the outcome of a vote. Additionally,
a transaction that results, or could result, in a new holding of more than 20% of the voting securities by one
security holder or combination of security holders acting together will be considered to materially affect
control, unless the circumstances indicate otherwise.
74
Accordingly, as Mr. Sheridan could have beneficial ownership, control or direction over more than 20% of
the outstanding G3 Shares following the completion of the Arrangement, the Arrangement could materially
affect control of G3 and result in Mr. Sheridan becoming a "Control Block Holder" or "Control Person" (as
defined in CSE Policy 1), and therefore, pursuant to the policies of the CSE, approval of Shareholders
(excluding the votes of Mr. Sheridan) is required for the Arrangement to proceed.
Pursuant to the policies of the CSE, the Control Person Resolution must be approved, with or without
variation, by a simple majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy by Shareholders entitled to vote at the
Meeting (excluding the G2 Shares held by Mr. J. Patrick Sheridan, being 41,049,074 G2 Shares representing
approximately 16.0% of the G2 Shares outstanding as of the date of this Circular).
For the avoidance of doubt, if the disinterested Shareholders do not approve the Control Person Resolution at
the Meeting, the Company may still proceed with the Arrangement and Mr. J. Patrick Sheridan may still
acquire additional G3 Shares from time to time so long as (a) the Arrangement and any such acquisitions do
not (i) result in Mr. Sheridan becoming a "Control Block Holder" or "Control Person" of G3 (each as defined
in CSE Policy 1), or (ii) "materially affect control" of G3 (as defined in CSE Policy 1); or (b) the requisite
disinterested Shareholder approval is obtained prior to any acquisitions of G3 Shares by Mr. Sheridan that
would result in him becoming a "Control Block Holder" or "Control Person" of G3 or that would "materially
affect control" of G3 (each as defined in CSE Policy 1).
Control Person Resolution
The text of the Control Person Resolution, which Shareholders (other than Mr. J. Patrick Sheridan) will be
asked to approve at the Meeting, is set out below:
"BE IT RESOLVED AS AN ORDINARY RESOLUTION OF DISINTERESTED
SHAREHOLDERS THAT:
1. The creation of J. Patrick Sheridan as a new "Control Person" (as defined in the policies of
the Canadian Securities Exchange) of the Company is hereby approved.
2. Any director or officer of G2 is hereby authorized and directed, acting for, in the name of
and on behalf of G2, to execute or cause to be executed, under the seal of G2 or otherwise,
and to deliver or to cause to be delivered, all such documents, agreements and instruments,
and to do or to cause to be done all such other acts and things, as such person determines to
be necessary or desirable in order to carry out the intent of this resolution and the matters
authorized hereby, such determination to be conclusively evidenced by the execution and
delivery of such document, agreement or instrument or the doing of any such act or thing."
Recommendation of the Board
The Board (excluding Mr. J. Patrick Sheridan) has reviewed the Control Person Resolution and concluded
that it is fair and reasonable to the disinterested Shareholders.
The Board recommends that disinterested Shareholders vote in favour of the Control Person
Resolution. Each director and officer of G2 (other than Mr. J. Patrick Sheridan) who owns G2 Shares
has indicated their intention to vote their G2 Shares in favour of the Control Person Resolution.
75
PARTICULARS OF MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON G3 STOCK OPTION PLAN
As G2's current Option Plan will not carry forward to G3, and in contemplation of the successful completion
of the Arrangement, Shareholders will be asked to approve the G3 Option Plan at the Meeting.
Summary of G3 Option Plan
The following is a summary of the material terms of the G3 Option Plan and is qualified in its entirety by the
full text of the G3 Option Plan appended hereto as Schedule M.
Purpose
The purpose of the G3 Option Plan is to promote G3's profitability and growth by facilitating the efforts of
G3 and its subsidiaries to obtain and retain key individuals. The G3 Option Plan provides an incentive for,
and encourages ownership of G3 Shares by, its key individuals so that they may increase their stake in G3
and benefit from increases in the value of the G3 Shares.
Administration
The G3 Option Plan is administered by the G3 Board or a designee committee of the G3 Board, which has
full authority to grant stock options thereunder and take all other actions necessary or advisable for the
implementation and administration of the G3 Option Plan, subject to the requirements of the CSE and the
terms of the G3 Option Plan.
Eligibility
The G3 Option Plan allows G3 to grant G3 Options to attract, retain and motivate qualified directors, officers,
employees and consultants of G3 and its subsidiaries.
The G3 Option Plan allows the G3 Board to grant G3 Options to directors and senior officers of G3 and its
subsidiaries, employees and management company employees of G3 and its subsidiaries, and consultants of
G3 and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Eligible Persons"). The G3 Board has full and final authority to
determine the Eligible Persons who are to be granted G3 Options under the G3 Option Plan and the number
of G3 Shares subject to each G3 Option.
Number of Shares Issuable
Subject to adjustments in certain specified circumstances, as provided for in the G3 Option Plan, the aggregate
number of G3 Shares that may be issued and sold under the G3 Option Plan may not exceed 10% of the
aggregate number of G3 Shares issued and outstanding, calculated as at the date of any G3 Option grant from
time to time. G3 Options that are exercised, cancelled or expire prior to exercise become available again for
issuance under the G3 Option Plan.
Limits on Participation
The G3 Option Plan provides for the following limits to G3 Shares issued or issuable under any G3 Options
granted under the G3 Option Plan, subject to the requirements of the CSE or other applicable stock exchange:
(a) The maximum number of G3 Shares issuable to any one optionee upon the exercise of G3 Options
in any 12-month period, when aggregated with any G3 Shares reserved for issuance under outstanding
G3 Options and other share compensation arrangements, may not exceed 5% of the number of G3
76
Shares then issued and outstanding, unless disinterested shareholder approval is received therefor in
accordance with the policies of the CSE or other applicable stock exchange.
(b) The maximum number of G3 Shares issuable pursuant to G3 Options granted to any one consultant
within any 12-month period, when aggregated with any G3 Shares reserved for issuance under
outstanding G3 Options and other share compensation arrangements, may not exceed 2% of the
number of G3 Shares issued and outstanding as of the date of grant.
(c) The maximum number of G3 Shares issuable pursuant to G3 Options granted in any 12-month period
to all persons engaged to provide investor relations services, in the aggregate, may not exceed 2% of
the number of G3 Shares issued and outstanding as of the date of grant.
In addition, if required by any stock exchange on which the G3 Shares trade, G3 Options granted to Eligible
Persons who perform investor relations activities must vest in stages over 12 months with no more than 25%
of such G3 Options vesting in any 3-month period.
Term of Options
G3 Options granted under the G3 Option Plan are exercisable as determined by the G3 Board at the time of
grant, provided however, that G3 Options may not be granted for a term exceeding ten years (subject to
extension where the expiry date falls within a Black-Out Period).
The G3 Option Plan provides that, in the event that the expiry date for a stock option falls within a period of
time when, pursuant to any policies of G3 (including G3's insider trading policy), any securities of G3 may
not be traded by certain persons designated by G3 (such period, a "Black-Out Period"), the expiry date of
such G3 Option will be automatically extended to the 10th business day following the expiry of such Black-
Out Period.
Exercise Price
The exercise price for the G3 Shares issuable for each G3 Option shall be determined by the G3 Board on the
basis of the market price of the G3 Shares on the stock exchange or dealing network on which the G3 Share
trade, all as specified in the G3 Option Plan, provided however, that, in the event the G3 Shares are listed on
a stock exchange, the exercise price may be the market price less any discounts from the market price allowed
by such stock exchange, subject to a minimum price of $0.10. In the event the G3 Shares are not listed on any
exchange and do not trade on any dealing network, the market price will be determined by the G3 Board.
The exercise price of G3 Options granted to insiders of the Company may not be decreased without
disinterested G3 Shareholder approval at the time of the proposed amendment.
Manner of Exercise and Cashless Exercise
Subject to the provisions of the G3 Option Plan and the particular G3 Option, a G3 Option may be exercised
from time to time by delivering to G3 at its registered office a written notice of exercise specifying the number
of G3 Shares with respect to which the G3 Option is being exercised and accompanied by payment in cash or
certified cheque for the full amount of the exercise price of the G3 Shares then being purchased.
Subject to the rules and policies of the CSE or other applicable stock exchange, and provided the optionee is
not engaged to provide investor relations services, the G3 Board may, in its discretion and at any time,
determine to grant an optionee the alternative to deal with such G3 Option on a "cashless exercise" basis, on
such terms as the G3 Board may determine in its discretion (the "Cashless Exercise Right"). Without
77
limitation, the G3 Board may determine in its discretion that such Cashless Exercise Right, if any, grants an
optionee the right to terminate such G3 Option in whole or in part by notice in writing to G3 and in lieu of
receiving G3 Shares pursuant to the exercise of the G3 Option, receive, without payment of any cash other
than as provided for in the G3 Option Plan:
(i) that number of G3 Shares, disregarding fractions, which when multiplied by the market value (as
such term is defined in the G3 Option Plan) on the day immediately prior to the exercise of the
Cashless Exercise Right, have a total value equal to the product of that number of G3 Shares subject
to the stock option multiplied by the difference between the market value on the day immediately
prior to the exercise of the Cashless Exercise Right and the exercise price; or
(ii) a cash payment equal to the difference between the market value on the day immediately prior to the
date of the exercise of the Cashless Exercise Right, and the exercise price, less applicable withholding
taxes as determined and calculated by G3, excluding fractions.
Vesting
G3 Options granted pursuant to the G3 Option Plan are subject to such vesting requirements as may be
prescribed by any stock exchange on which the G3 Shares trade, where applicable, or as may be imposed by
the G3 Board. G3 Options issued to persons retained to provide investor relations activities must vest in stages
over 12 months with no more than 25% of such G3 Options vesting in any 3-month period.
Cessation of Provision of Services and Death
The following describes the impact of certain events that may lead to the early expiry of G3 Options granted
under the G3 Option Plan:
(i) Cessation of Services: Subject to the provisions of the G3 Option Plan dealing with the treatment of
G3 Options upon the death of an optionee, if any optionee ceases to be an Eligible Person for any
reason (whether or not for cause) the optionee may exercise the G3 Option, but only within the period
of 90 days, or 30 days if the Eligible Person is a person engaged to provide investor relations services,
next succeeding such cessation (unless either such 90 or 30-day period is extended by the G3 Board,
up to a maximum of 12 months from the date of such cessation), and in no event after the expiry date
of the G3 Option, exercise the G3 Option.
(ii) Death: In the event of an optionee's death during the currency of the optionee's stock option, the G3
Option shall be exercisable within the 12-month period next succeeding the optionee's death and in
no event after the expiry date of the G3 Option.
Amendments
Subject to any necessary regulatory approvals, the G3 Board may from time to time amend or revise the terms
of the G3 Option Plan (or any G3 Option granted thereunder) or may terminate the G3 Option Plan (or any
G3 Option granted thereunder) at any time, provided however, that no such action shall, without the consent
of the optionee, in any manner adversely affect an optionee's rights under any G3 Option theretofore granted
under, or governed by, the G3 Option Plan.
To the extent required by applicable law or by the policies of the stock exchange on which the G3 Shares
trade (if applicable) at the relevant time, G3 Shareholder approval (as required by such policies) and approval
of such stock exchange, as applicable, will be required for, among other items, amendments to the following
items:
78
(i) persons eligible to be granted or issued G3 Options under the G3 Option Plan;
(ii) the maximum number or percentage of G3 Shares that may be issuable under the G3 Option Plan;
(iii) the limits under the G3 Option Plan on the number of G3 Options that may be granted or issued to
any one person or any category of persons;
(iv) the maximum term of any G3 Options;
(v) the expiry and termination provisions applicable to any G3 Options; and
(vi) any method or formula for calculating prices, values or amounts under the G3 Option Plan that may
result in a benefit to an optionee.

PARTICULARS OF MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON G3 RSU PLAN
As G2's current RSU Plan will not carry forward to G3, and in contemplation of the successful completion
of the Arrangement, G2 Shareholders will be asked to approve the G3 RSU Plan at the Meeting.
79
Summary of G3 RSU Plan
The following is a summary of the material terms of the G3 RSU Plan and is qualified in its entirety by the
full text of the G3 RSU Plan appended hereto as Schedule N.
The G3 RSU Plan provides for the grant of G3 RSUs to directors, officers, employees and consultants of G3
as set forth therein. The G3 RSUs will be settled through the issuance of G3 Shares.
The purpose of the G3 RSU Plan is to allow for certain discretionary awards as an incentive for selected
eligible persons related to the achievement of long-term financial and strategic objectives of G3 and the
resulting increases in shareholder value. The G3 RSU Plan is intended to promote a greater alignment of
interests between G3 Shareholders and the selected eligible persons by providing an opportunity to participate
in increases in the value of G3. The G3 RSU Plan is administered by the G3 Board, which has the authority
to delegate all of its powers and authority under the G3 RSU Plan to the G3 Compensation Committee or to
another committee of the G3 Board.
G3 RSUs are akin to "phantom shares" that track the value of the underlying G3 Shares but do not entitle the
recipient to the actual underlying G3 Shares until maturity and upon satisfaction of any applicable vesting
requirements. The G3 RSU Plan permits the G3 Board to grant awards of G3 RSUs to eligible persons, upon
such vesting conditions and subject to such maturity dates as the G3 Board may determine. In the event of a
change of control of G3, all unvested G3 RSUs will automatically vest.
A grantee may elect to defer the receipt of all or any part of their G3 Shares following the applicable maturity
date until a deferred payment date specified in accordance with the terms of the G3 RSU Plan. Subject to any
vesting restrictions, G3 RSUs will be settled by way of the issuance of G3 Shares from treasury on a one-for-
one basis as soon as practicable following the relevant maturity date or deferred payment date, if applicable,
or as otherwise may be determined by the G3 Board or specified in the G3 RSU Plan.
Except by a will or by the laws of descent and distribution, G3 RSUs are not assignable or transferable.
Subject to the G3 Board determining otherwise within the limitations of the G3 RSU Plan, in the event of the
retirement, death or disability of a grantee, any unvested G3 RSUs held by such person will automatically
vest and the underlying G3 Shares will be issued as soon as practicable thereafter. In the event of a termination
without cause (as determined in accordance with the G3 RSU Plan) of a grantee, any unvested G3 RSUs of
such grantee will vest in accordance with their normal vesting schedule, unless the G3 Board determines
otherwise within the limitations of the G3 RSU Plan. In the event of a termination with cause or resignation
of a grantee (each as determined in accordance with the G3 RSU Plan), all of such grantee's G3 RSUs that
have not yet vested shall become void, unless the G3 Board determines otherwise within the limitations of
the G3 RSU Plan.
The maximum number of G3 Shares issuable under the G3 RSU Plan shall be the lesser of (i) 3,650,000 G3
Shares; and (ii) such number of G3 Shares, when combined with all other G3 Shares subject to grants made
under G3's other share compensation arrangements (pre-existing or otherwise, and including the G3 Option
Plan), as is equal to 10% of the aggregate number of G3 Shares issued and outstanding from time to time.
The grant of G3 RSUs under the G3 RSU Plan is subject to restrictions such that (i) the number of G3 RSUs
granted to insiders of G3 within any one year period, and (ii) the number of G3 Shares reserved for issuance
under G3 RSUs granted to insiders of G3 at any time, in each case under the G3 RSU Plan when combined
with all of the other share compensation arrangements of G3, shall not exceed 10% of the total issued and
outstanding G3 Shares.
80
The total number of G3 RSUs granted to any one individual under the G3 RSU Plan within any one year
period shall not exceed 5% of the total number of G3 Shares issued and outstanding at the grant date. The
maximum number of G3 RSUs which may be granted to any one consultant within any one-year period must
not exceed in the aggregate 2% of the G3 Shares issued and outstanding as at the grant date.
The G3 Board may amend the provisions of the G3 RSU Plan and any grant of G3 RSUs from time to time,
including with respect to: (a) amendments of a housekeeping nature; (b) changes to any vesting provisions of
a G3 RSU; (c) changes to the termination provisions of a G3 RSU or the G3 RSU Plan; and (d) amendments
to reflect changes to applicable securities or tax laws. However, other than the foregoing, any amendment to
the G3 RSU Plan which would:
(a) increase the number of G3 Shares issuable under the G3 RSU Plan;
(b) permit G3 RSUs to be transferred other than for normal estate settlement purposes;
(c) remove or exceed the specified insider participation limits;
(d) materially modify the eligibility requirements for participation in the G3 RSU Plan; or
(e) modify the amending provisions of the G3 RSU Plan,
shall be subject to the receipt of applicable shareholder and regulatory approvals.
Shareholder Approval
Unless such authority is withheld, the persons named in the enclosed proxy intend to vote for the approval of
the G3 RSU Plan.
At the Meeting, G2 Shareholders will be asked to pass an ordinary resolution, with or without amendment, in
substantially the form set forth below:
"BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
1. subject to completion of the Arrangement, a restricted share unit plan for G3 Goldfields Inc.
("G3") in substantially the form attached as Schedule N of the management information
circular of G2 Goldfields Inc. dated as of October 23, 2025 be approved pursuant to which
the directors of G3 may, from time to time, authorize the issuance of restricted share units to
directors, officers, employees and consultants of G3 to a maximum of the lesser of (i)
3,650,000 common shares of G3; and (ii) such number of common shares, when combined
with all other common shares subject to grants made under G3's other share compensation
arrangements (pre-existing or otherwise, and including the G3's stock option plan), as is
equal to 10% of the aggregate number of common shares of G3 issued and outstanding from
time to time; and
2. any director or officer of G3 is hereby authorized and directed, acting for, in the name of and
on behalf of G3, to execute or cause to be executed, and to deliver or cause to be delivered,
such other documents and instruments, and to do or cause to be done all such other acts and
things, as may in the opinion of such director or officer be necessary or desirable to carry out
the foregoing resolution."

Chitrali Sarkar, M.Sc., P.Geo., William J. Lewis, B.Sc., P.Geo. and Mike Round, M.Sc., MCSM, FIMMM,
who are qualified persons ("QPs") under NI 43-101. The Spin-Out Technical Report is available under G2's
profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
Each of the authors of the Spin-Out Technical Report is a qualified person for the purposes of NI 43-101, and
has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information contained herein related to the Project.
Project Description, Location and Access
The Project is located in Cuyuni-Mazaruni Region (Region 7) of north-central Guyana in South America. It
is approximately 120 km west of Georgetown, the capital city of Guyana. The international airport close to
Georgetown has daily commercial flights from London (UK), Toronto (Canada), Miami (USA), Bridgetown
(Barbados) or Port of Spain (Trinidad). Ogle international airport has some international flights to the
Caribbean, but mostly domestic flights to Bartica and many exploration and mining camps in the interior of
the country.
The closest town to the Project is Bartica, the capital of Region 7, which can be reached from Georgetown
via a short flight or a drive on paved highway and laterite roads which are well maintained.
The Project is comprised of seven separate groups of properties including the Aremu Partnership, Peters Mine
Property, Property A, Property B, Tiger Creek, Aremu Mine Property and the Ghanie MSMP. Each group
contains contiguous MSMP (Medium Scale Mining Permits) or PPMS (Prospecting Permit Medium Scale).
86
The details relating to the MSMPs and PPMS comprising the Project, including the expiration date and
obligations that must be met to retain such MSMPs are set forth in Sections 4.2 and 4.4 of the Spin-Out
Technical Report. G2's title or interest in each of the seven groups of properties that comprise the Project is
as follows:
(i) Aremu Mine Property and Peters Mine Property
G2 acquired Bartica Investments Ltd. on October 24, 2019 which, through its wholly owned
subsidiary, Ontario Inc., owns the Aremu Mine Property and Peters Mine Property.
(ii) Tiger Creek
On April 19, 2023, G2 Guyana entered into an option agreement for Tiger Creek. The equivalent of
US$75,000 was paid upon signing and a 100% interest in such properties may be acquired by making
additional payments totalling US$425,000 on or before April 15, 2027. To date, US$200,000 has
been paid. The owner of Tiger Creek has retained a 2% Net Smelter Return ("NSR") royalty, which
G2 can acquire for US$3,000,000.
(iii) Property B
On February 11, 2025, G3 Guyana entered into an option agreement for Property B. The equivalent
of US$250,000 was paid upon signing of the option agreement and a 100% interest in such permits
may be acquired by making additional payments totaling US$1,600,000. G3 Guyana is also obligated
to make a further one-time cash payment (at any time) equal to the greater of (a) US$5,000,000; and
(b) if an independent resource estimate determined in accordance with NI 43-101 estimates the
amount of gold on the permits to be in excess of 1,000,000 ounces, the product of US$5.00 multiplied
by the total estimated indicated ounces of gold.
(iv) Aremu Partnership
The Aremu Partnership was optioned by G2 Guyana from B & R Emporium Gold on June 9, 2024.
Upon executing the agreement, G2 made an initial payment of US$1,000,000. Under the terms of the
option agreement, G2 will make subsequent payments on each anniversary date for 5 years for a total
of US$1,000,000. To date, US$200,000 has been paid. Additionally, a payment of US$5,000,000 will
be due upon execution of an unlimited power of attorney, and a payment of US$2,000,000 will be
required for the completion of conversions to a prospecting license.
There are no royalties attached to the permits that comprise the Aremu Partnership.
(v) Property A
On February 11, 2025, G3 Guyana entered into an option agreement for Property A. The equivalent
of US$300,000 was paid upon signing of the option agreement and a 100% interest in such permits
may be acquired by making additional payments totaling US$1,500,000. G3 Guyana is also obligated
to make a further one-time cash payment (at any time) equal to the greater of (a) US$5,000,000; and
(b) if an independent resource estimate determined in accordance with NI 43-101 estimates the
amount of gold on the permits to be in excess of 1,000,000 ounces, the product of US$5.00 multiplied
by the total estimated indicated ounces of gold.
87
(vi) Ghanie MSMP
On March 30, 2021, Violet Smith, a Country Manager for G2 and an owner of Ontario Inc. entered
into an option agreement to acquire 100% interests in four claims (the "Ghanie Claims"), totaling
3,280 acres, which are contiguous to the southeastern extent of the Oko claims. G2 earned its 100%
interest in the Ghanie Claims by making payments totaling US$315,000 over a 4-year period. The
vendor retains a 2% NSR which G2 has the option to acquire for US$2 million. Three claims have
been converted to Prospecting Licenses and the fourth, the Ghanie MSMP does not contain any
mineral resources to date and is currently not considered a high priority for conversion to a large-
scale permit. As of the date of the Spin-Out Technical Report, the Ghanie MSMP is pending transfer
to Ms. Violet Smith pursuant to the underlying option agreement with A. Ghanie.
History
While there are several historic reports that indicate the partial history of the inactive Peters Mine Property
and Aremu Mine Property, the documented exploration history in the area is either sparse or mostly
inaccessible to G2 at present. Despite this fact, some significant historical work which indicates the potential
of the district includes:
dot The Peters Mine Property in the Puruni area (now abandoned) which historically produced more than
40,000 ounces of gold from high grade veins in an underground mining operation.
dot The Aremu Mine Property along the Big Aremu River (now abandoned) which historically produced
over 6,000 ounces of gold from high grade veins and shear zones in an underground mining operation.
dot An underground mine (now abandoned) at the Wariri area in the Lower Aremu group of properties
which produced more than 8,000 ounces of gold.
dot The United Nations (1965 to 1969) financed regional geophysics and geochemical surveys in
Guyana. An airborne geophysical survey covered the properties which comprise the Project.
dot Artisanal Mining on the Upper and Lower Aremu groups of properties.
There is no precise record of the amount gold recovered and produced from any of the historic mining
operations on the Project. However, according to The Gold Deposits of the Cuyuni River, Geological Survey
of British Guiana, Bulletin 27 by R.T. Cannon (1958), after the discovery of the Wariri mine the Cuyuni was
actively prospected and from 1895 when district records were first recorded to 1958 nearly 500,000 ounces
were produced. Cannon also noted that a considerable amount of gold was produced in the Cuyuni River prior
to 1895 and that in total the area could have produced approximately 750,000 ounces of gold between 1863
and 1958. However, it is most likely that the amount of gold produced was larger than the district records
indicate.
Between 2010 and the present, some of the properties within the Project areas have been extensively mined
for alluvial gold by excavator-supported hydraulic dredging methods and sluice box gold recovery systems.
Geological Setting, Mineralization and Deposit Types
From a regional point of view, the Project area is part of the Guiana Shield, which is one of the three cratons
of the South American Plate and includes parts of Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana and Brazil.
The bedrock contains mostly schist, phyllite and metamorphosed volcanic rocks. These sequences belong to
Proterozoic and Mesozoic age. There is extensive amount of Tertiary and Quaternary sediments present in
88
the river valleys and on the Atlantic shoreline. Most of the small-scale artisanal gold and diamond operations
are mining free gold and diamonds from the rivers.
From a local point of view, the Project area contains saprolitic weathered rock exposed on the Project in
trenches, underground drifts, road cuts and artisanal pits. The bedrock in the region is underlain by
metavolcanics and metasediments of the late Proterozoic Cuyuni Formation, including sandstones,
conglomerates and volcanics, intruded by several granitoid plutons. Intrusive rocks on the Project are part of
the Northern Guyana Granite Complex and include the granites of the Bartica Assemblage plus the Younger
Granites. They are represented by small granitic intrusions of granite and granodiorite to diorite, which intrude
the Barama-Mazaruni greenstone. Outcrops of the Aremu granitoid batholith are found on the Upper Aremu
group of properties. The granitoids have zircon, little heavy minerals and coarse angular quartz grains. Data
from the previous exploration show that small granitic plutons are associated with the gold mineralization.
Multiple gold-bearing quartz veins are found close to the contact between the greenstones and the younger
granite.
The Lower Aremu and East Aremu properties are bounded by the Aremu batholith to the west and the Bartica
intrusive complex to the east. The Upper Aremu properties are bounded by the Aremu Batholith to the east.
The characteristics of the Project area exhibits presence of multiple orientations of foliations, indicating a
poly-deformed tectonic history for the area. Several sets of shear zones have been mapped during the
geological mapping events conducted in the area. Notably, a field visit by G2 staff has confirmed the
occurrence of shear structures within some of the old Wariri mine tunnels. The shear zones were documented
with evidence of composite cleavage sets marking multiple phases of deformation during a protracted
formation history. At least 3 episodes of deformation were recorded with the principal S3 bounding shears
being inclined and dipping to the south-east and having a distinct sense of slip of SE blocks moving up relative
to NW blocks across the sheared zone.
Large boulders of quartz interpreted as floats from nearby quartz reefs have been confirmed on both the Upper
Aremu and Lower Aremu groups of properties. At the Upper Aremu properties quartz boulders up to 5 metres
in diameter were observed as sub-crops along a 100-metre trend. The quartz boulders had a distinct laminated
texture and were trending in a general north south direction parallel to a nearby in-situ vein within a felsic
intrusive saprolite that is likely the Aremu batholith. A number of grab samples were collected during the site
visit conducted by the qualified person and G2's personnel.
The geochemical results and the structural interpretations suggest that the in-situ gold mineralization can be
categorized as an orogenic gold deposit type (also known as mesothermal gold deposit type). The so-called
orogenic gold deposits are emplaced during compressional to transgressional regimes and throughout much
of the upper crust, in deformed accretionary belts adjacent to continental magmatic arcs.
Exploration
G2 has conducted various exploration programs on multiple property groups. The activities undertaken to
date include:
(i) Airborne geophysics.
In 2025, G2 engaged AerophysX Surveys Ltd. to conduct a district-wide drone magnetics survey which
included coverage of several properties subject to the Spin-Out Technical Report. At the time of Spin-Out
Technical Report, the field data collection was completed but the dataset was yet to be handed over to the
Company.
89
(ii) Soil Sampling.
As of the date of the Spin-Out Technical Report, 14,357 soil samples have been collected on all property
groups that comprise the Project. This work had resulted in the definition of multiple gold in soil anomalies
along trends that extend for several hundred metres on various target areas. Some of these targets remain
untested by any follow up work, while others have delivered significant grab sampling, trenching or drilling
results. Notably, there are also areas of interest identified on some property groups which remain untested by
soil sampling.
(iii) Grab Sampling.
As of the date of the Spin-Out Technical Report, a total of 766 grab samples were taken on the property
groups that comprise the Project. These samples were taken generally on outcropping quartz veins, shear
structures, altered rocks, and in general any occurrence of geological features which might be associated with
gold mineralization.
The Peters Mine Property and Aremu Mine Property have delivered strong assay values on quartz reefs within
shear structures, some of which were newly mapped. Grab sampling have confirmed high gold grades in the
Shepherd's vein area in the Aremu Mine Property, with sample values including 167.7 g/t Au, 133.1 g/t Au
and 47.5 g/t Au. The vein was successfully targeted by miners for at least 400 m, who have historically mined
portions of it with shallow open pits and shallow shafts (less than 35 m vertical depth).
At the Peters Mine Property, a newly mapped shear structure which trends northeast to southwest, located
approximately 730 m to the south of the historic mine has returned sampling values including 31.0 g/t Au,
88.7 g/t Au, 98.8 g/t Au and 104.0 g/t Au. This structure remains open along strike and have not been
subjected to an extensive drill program. Additionally, to the north of the historic mine narrow quartz veins
within volcanic rocks have returned assay values including 30.5 g/t Au and 18.2 g/t Au.
(iv) Trenching.
A total of 182 trenches for 11,944 m has been completed to date on the property groups comprising the
Project. These trenches have successfully delineated shear structures across multiple trenches and confirmed
the presence of mineralization associated with them.
Drilling
As of the date of the Spin-Out Technical Report, 66 diamond drill holes totalling 7,569 m have been
completed by G2 on the Project.
These drill holes have successfully intersected mineralized structures across multiple target areas, some of
which delivered encouraging intercepts that warrant further investigation and additional drilling. However,
multiple other targets which returned significant grab sampling, soil sampling or trenching assays remain
untested across the various property groups.
90
Sampling, Analysis and Data Verification
Sample Preparation and Analysis
Soil Sampling
Soil samples are prepared under the supervision of trained senior field technicians. The samples are collected
using a Dutch hand auger to drill shallow holes (generally less than 3 m depth) to intersect the B-horizon of
the soils. Typically, this would be observed within 1.5 m of the surface, however sometimes tertiary cover
sediments would overlie the in-situ residual soils which are the targeted sample media and deeper holes would
be required to intersect the desired sampling horizon. A 0.5 m sample is then laid out on a clean white
polyweave bag in the field. This sample material is then homogenized and cone and quartered in the field,
resulting in a representative sample that is usually between 1.5 kg to 3 kg in weight. This sample is
photographed and then inserted in a sampling bag along with a sample tag that contains the sample
identification (ID).
These samples are verified at the Oko base camp utilizing the field data collection forms, prior to being
prepared for dispatch to the laboratory. The sample dispatches to MSA Labs located in Georgetown are
completed using company-owned cargo trucks under the supervision of an experienced senior field staff. The
samples are usually analyzed by MSA Labs' using the FAS-124 method, following the PRP-920 sample
preparation method.
MSA Labs is an independent ISO 17025 accredited laboratory located in a number of locations worldwide.
MSA Labs is independent of G2.
Grab Samples
Grab samples are prepared under the supervision of a geologist. Features of interest are mapped and
documented using Mx Deposit, where a sample ID is assigned. The geologist, or a field technician would
utilize an appropriate tool (typically a rock hammer) to chip random but representative pieces of the sample
media into a sampling bag until a sample weight of between 1.5 kg to 3kg is achieved. A sample tag
corresponding to the sample ID is inserted into the sampling bag and it is then transported to the basecamp to
be prepared for sample dispatch.
These samples are then verified at the Oko base camp utilizing the logged data in Mx Deposit, and then they
are prepared for dispatch to the laboratory. The sample dispatches to MSA Labs, located in Georgetown, are
completed using company-owned cargo trucks under the supervision of an experienced senior field staff.
These samples are usually analyzed by MSA Labs' the FAS-121 method after being prepared using the PRP-
920 sample preparation method. If analysis by the FAS-121 method yields a gold value in excess of 6.0 g/t
Au, a pulp split will be selected for analysis by the FAS-425 method which is a gravimetric method.
Trench Samples
Trench samples are collected under the direct supervision of a geologist. The selected wall of the trench is
cleaned with a machete and mapped by the geologist. Zones of interest are then identified, and samples are
assigned, usually in a 1 m to 2 m interval width. A channel approximately 3 inches in depth is then prepared
in the trench wall and material is chipped from this channel directly to a sampling bag to prepare a sample
that is between 1.5 kg to 3 kg in weight. A sample tag corresponding to the sample ID is inserted into the
sampling bag and it is then transported to the basecamp to be prepared for sample dispatch. Certified
Reference Materials are inserted into the sampling sequence every 10th sample as part of the QA/QC
protocols.
91
The trench samples are verified at the Oko base camp utilizing the mapped data and also data entered by the
geologist in a Mx Deposit database. Once the trench samples are verified, they are prepared for dispatch to
the laboratory. The sample dispatches to MSA Labs are completed using company-owned cargo trucks under
the supervision of an experienced senior field staff. The samples are usually prepared using the PRP-920
sample preparation method followed by MSA Labs' FAS-121 method for analysis. If analysis by the FAS-
121 method yields a gold value in excess of 6.0 g/t Au, a pulp split will be selected for analysis by the FAS-
425 method which is a gravimetric method.
Drill Samples
Drilling samples are prepared under the supervision of a geologist and a senior field technician. Drill core
samples are retrieved from the drilling rig and transported to a logging facility at the Oko base camp. The
samples are logged by a geologist who identifies zones of interest within the drill hole and assigns sampling
intervals. Sampling intervals typically vary between 1 m and 1.5 m, but in the mineralized zones, sampling
widths can be as narrow as 0.5 m. The drill core is then split using a core cutting saw and the respective
sample intervals are placed in sample bags along with their sample tags. Certified Reference Materials
("CRM") are inserted into the sampling sequence every 10 samples as part of the QA/QC protocols.
The samples are dispatched to the laboratory under the supervision of a senior field staff using a company
owned cargo truck. These samples are usually analyzed by MSA Labs' the FAS-121 method, following the
PRP-920 sample preparation method. If analysis by the FAS-121 method yields a gold value in excess of 6.0
g/t Au, a pulp split will be selected for analysis by the FAS-425 method which is a gravimetric method. If
visible gold is observed in the drill core, the respective sample interval is analyzed by the MSC-550 method,
which is a metallic screen method.
QA/QC Monitoring
Trench Sampling
A total of 1,094 CRM samples were utilized for the trenching programs on the Project. A total of 10 individual
mineralized CRM samples were used during the trench sampling program. A total of 65 CRM samples (or
5.9%) failed to return assay values within +/- 3 standard deviation limits from their certified assay value.
The QPs note that three of the 10 individual CRM check samples (OREAS 211, OREAS 217 and OREAS
230) returned higher than expected failures. While the three individual CRM samples only accounted for a
total 70 samples (6.4%) out of the 1,094 CRM samples submitted to the laboratory from the trenching
program, the higher failure rates for these three individual CRMs need to be investigated further. The QP
recommends that these three CRM samples are excluded from usage in further trench sampling programs
until a possible reason for the high failure rate is examined.
Drill Hole Sampling
A total of 509 CRM samples were utilized for the drilling programs on the Project. A total of 10 individual
mineralized CRM samples were used during the drill sampling program. A total of 32 CRM samples (or
6.3%) failed to return assay values within +/- 3 standard deviation limits from their certified assay value.
The QP notes that two of the 10 individual CRM check samples (OREAS 211 and OREAS 251b) returned
higher than expected failures. While the two individual CRM samples only accounted for a total of 42 samples
(8.3%) out of the 509 CRM samples submitted to the laboratory from the drilling program, the higher failure
rates for these two individual CRMs need to be investigated further. The QP recommends that these two CRM
92
samples are excluded from usage in further drill sampling programs until a possible reason for the high failure
rate is examined.
Data Verification
The Project has been visited twice by Micon personnel in 2024 and 2025 to review the ongoing exploration
programs by G2 personnel.
2024 Site Visit
The Project was visited by one of the QPs, Ms. Chitrali Sarkar, M.Sc. P.Geo., a Senior Geologist with Micon.
During the visit, she was accompanied by Mr. Daniel Noone, President and CEO of G2, and Messrs. Collin
Griffith and Andre McAlmont, geologists of G2.
The main purpose of the visit included:
dot Field observation and verification of the Project area.
dot Independent sample collection from the lithological outcrops.
dot Collecting information of the historic exploration and mining activities.
All information requested by the QP was provided by G2 personnel.
Ms. Sarkar spent two days physically verifying the property from July 29 to 30, 2024. During the site visit,
grab samples were collected and every sample collected during the visit was stored and tagged properly and
were sent to the MSA Labs. Ms. Sarkar visited the MSA Labs in Georgetown. She was briefed about the
whole procedure starting from sample retrieval to gold analysis during the visit. The assay certificates for the
collected samples were delivered to the QP.
2025 Site Visit
The Project was visited by the QPs, Mr. William J. Lewis, a Principal Geologist and Mike Round, the
Manager of Technical Services. During the visit, they were accompanied by Messrs. Torben Michalsen, Chief
Operating Officer of G2 and Roopesh Sukhu, a geologist with G2.
The site visit occurred between June 7, 2025 and June 13, 2025, with three days on site to physically verify
the exploration and drill set-up for the up coming short exploration drilling program being conducted on the
property. Messrs. Lewis and Round observed that the exploration work to date was comprised mostly of soil
sampling with a couple of drill pads being set up to do some preliminary exploration drill holes. The drill was
being moved onto the Project while Messrs. Lewis and Round were on site, but drilling had not yet started.
The exploration program of soil sampling and drilling was reviewed and found to be appropriate for the soil
conditions at the Project. No further verification samples were taken during the 2025 Micon site visit.
Mineral Processing and Metallurgical Testing
No mineral processing and metallurgical testwork have been conducted on the Project.
Mineral Resource Estimates
No mineral resource estimates have been conducted on the Project.
93
Exploration, Development, and Production
G2's exploration program on the Project includes geological and structural interpretation of the results of
exploration work conducted on the Peters Mine Property, and additional drilling is being contemplated on the
RED target area. Further trenching is being conducted at the Wariri area to follow up on anomalous results
from previous trench samples. G2, and following the completion of the Arrangement, G3, expect to conduct
further drilling and exploration work on the Project in alignment with the QPs' recommendations and budget
provided in the Spin-Out Technical Report, including additional soil sampling, trenching and drilling on target
areas throughout the Project.

(4) Assuming approximately 128,504,917 G3 Shares are outstanding immediately following the completion of the Arrangement.
Upon the completion of the Arrangement, it is expected that the proposed directors and executive officers of
G3 as a group, will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, or exercise control or direction over an aggregate
of approximately 26,776,214 G3 Shares, representing approximately 20.8 % of the issued G3 Shares.
None of the executive officers have entered into employment agreements or non-competition or non-

the Ontario Securities Commission issued an order (the "FFCTO") that trading cease in respect of each

management's discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 2021. The FFCTO remains in effect
as of the date of this Circular. Following Mr. Marrelli's resignation as Chief Financial Officer of MCC, MCC
filed an assignment into bankruptcy on March 28, 2022 under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada).
Mr. Marrelli also currently serves as Chief Financial Officer of Silver Storm Mining Ltd. ("SSM"). On

(a) any penalties or sanctions imposed by a court relating to securities legislation or by a securities
regulatory authority or has entered into a settlement agreement with a securities regulatory authority;
or
(b) any penalties or sanctions imposed by a court or regulatory body that would likely be considered
important to a reasonable G3 Shareholder in deciding whether to vote for a proposed director.
While Mr. Franzmann was a director of Lachlan Star Limited ("LSA"), LSA was placed into voluntary
administration by the LSA board of directors and was suspended from trading on the Australian Securities
Exchange (ASX) in 2015. This was a direct result of the Chairman of LSA failing to execute an agreement to
provide a debt instrument to the value of USD$3.5 million and instead and via Denver based Hamilton Place
Associates LLP ("HPA") purchased an existing gold loan from Sprott Resource Lending Partnership to
become the largest creditor to LSA. As the only significant creditor of LSA, the Chairman resigned and called
in the transferred gold loan. The Company had insufficient cash to pay the balance of the gold loan. HPA
then applied through the Australian court system and successfully transferred the Company's only operating
asset, The Dayton Gold Mine in Chile, into the ownership of HPA. With no cashflow the company was placed
into voluntary administration by the Board of Directors. LSA was eventually recapitalized and returned to
trading on the ASX.
Indebtedness of Directors, Executive Officers and Senior Officers
There is and has been no indebtedness of any director, executive officer or senior officer or associate of any
of them, to or guaranteed or supported by G3 since incorporation.
Statement of Executive Compensation
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
G3 did not compensate its executive officer or director during its most recently completed financial year and
has not yet developed a compensation program. G3 anticipates that it will adopt a compensation program that
reflects its stage of development, the main elements of which are expected to be comprised of base salary,
option-based awards and annual cash incentives, which elements are similar to those paid by G2 and described
in this Circular. Please see "Statement of Executive Compensation" in this Circular.
99
Summary Compensation
No compensation has been paid since G3's incorporation. In addition, G3 has no compensatory plan or other
arrangements in respect of compensation received or that may be received by its President and Chief
Executive Officer in its current financial year.
Following the completion of the Arrangement, G3 will establish the G3 Compensation Committee, which
will administer the compensation mechanisms to be implemented by the G3 Board. The individuals that will
be appointed to the G3 Compensation Committee, once formed, will each have direct experience that is
relevant to their responsibilities in determining executive compensation for G3.
On an annual basis, the G3 Compensation Committee will review the compensation of the Named Executive
Officers to ensure that each is being compensated in accordance with the objectives of G3's compensation
program, which will be to:
dot provide competitive compensation that attracts and retains talented employees;
dot align compensation with shareholder interests;
dot pay for performance;
dot support the G3's vision, mission and values; and
dot be flexible to recognize the needs of G3 in different business environments.
G3 does not currently have any compensation policies or mechanisms in place. The compensation policies
are anticipated to be comprised of three components; namely, base salary, equity compensation in the form
of stock options, restricted share units and discretionary performance-based. In addition, Named Executive
Officers will be entitled to participate in a benefits program to be implemented by G3. A Named Executive
Officer's base salary will be intended to remunerate the Named Executive Officer for discharging job
responsibilities and will reflect the executive's performance over time. Base salaries are used as a measure to
compare to, and remain competitive with, compensation offered by competitors and as the base to determine
other elements of compensation and benefits. The stock option and restricted share unit components of a
Named Executive Officer's compensation, which include a vesting element to ensure retention, will aim to
meet the objectives of the compensation program to be implemented, by both motivating the executive
towards increasing share value and enabling the executive to share in the future success of G3. Discretionary
performance-based bonuses will be considered from time to time to reward those who have achieved
exceptional performance and meet the objectives of G3's compensation program by rewarding pay for
performance. Other benefits will not form a significant part of the remuneration package of any of the Named
Executive Officers of G3.
The G3 Board has adopted the G3 Option Plan, which plan is also subject to approval by the G2 Shareholders.
The G3 Option Plan, once implemented, will allow for the granting of G3 Options to its officers, employees,
directors and consultants. The purpose of granting such G3 Options would be to assist G3 in compensating,
attracting, retaining and motivating the directors of G3 and to closely align the personal interests of such
persons to that of the G3 Shareholders.
The G3 Board has adopted the G3 RSU Plan, which plan is also subject to approval by the G2 Shareholders.
The G3 RSU Plan, once implemented, will allow for the granting of G3 RSUs to directors, officers, employees
and consultants of G3. The purpose of granting such G3 RSUs would be to promote a greater alignment of
interests between the G3 Shareholders and the selected eligible persons by providing an opportunity to
participate in increases in the value of G3.
100
Option-Based Awards
The purpose of the G3 Option Plan is to allow G3 to grant G3 Options to directors, officers, employees and
consultants, as additional compensation, and as an opportunity to participate in the success of G3. The
granting of such G3 Options is intended to align the interests of such persons with that of the G3 Shareholders.
The G3 Option Plan, once implemented, will be used to provide G3 Options which will be awarded based on
the recommendations of the directors of G3, taking into account the level of responsibility of such person, as
well as their past impact on or contribution to, and/or their ability in future to have an impact on or to
contribute to the longer-term operating performance of G3. In determining the number of G3 Options to be
granted, the G3 Board will take into account the number of G3 Options, if any, previously granted, and the
exercise price of any outstanding G3 Options to ensure that such grants are in accordance with the policies of
the CSE and to closely align the interests of such person with the interests of G3 Shareholders. The G3 Board
will determine the vesting provisions of all G3 Option grants.
Outstanding Option-Based Awards
No G3 Options are outstanding as of the date of this Circular, and no G3 Options are expected to be
outstanding as of the Effective Time of the Arrangement.
Aggregate Options Exercised and Option Values
No stock options have been granted by G3 or exercised since the date of its incorporation on
December 5, 2024.
Incentive Plan Awards
The purpose of the G3 RSU Plan is to allow for certain discretionary awards as an incentive for selected
eligible persons related to the achievement of long-term financial and strategic objectives of G3 and the
resulting increases in shareholder value. The G3 RSU Plan is intended to promote a greater alignment of
interests between the G3 Shareholders and the selected eligible persons by providing an opportunity to
participate in increases in the value of G3. The G3 RSU Plan, once implemented, will be used to provide G3
RSUs which will be awarded based on the recommendations of the directors of G3, taking into account the
level of responsibility of such person, as well as their past impact on or contribution to, and/or their ability in
future to have an impact on or to contribute to the longer-term operating performance of G3. In determining
the number of G3 RSUs to be granted, the G3 Board will take into account the number of G3 RSUs, if any,
previously granted, to ensure that such grants are in accordance with the policies of the CSE and to closely
align the interests of such person with the interests of G3 Shareholders. The G3 Board will determine the
vesting provisions of all G3 RSU grants.
Outstanding Incentive Plan Awards
No G3 RSUs are outstanding as of the date of this Circular, and no G3 RSUs are expected to be outstanding
as of the Effective Time of the Arrangement.
Aggregate G3 RSUs Vested and G3 RSU Values
No G3 RSUs have been granted by G3 or vested since the date of its incorporation on December 5, 2024.
101
Pension Plan Benefits
G3 does not have a pension plan that provides for payments or benefits to the Named Executive Officers at,
following, or in connection with retirement.
Termination of Employment, Change in Responsibilities and Employment Contracts
G3 has no employment contracts with any of its Named Executive Officers. Further, it has no contract,
agreement, plan or arrangement that provides for payments to a Named Executive Officer following or in
connection with any termination (whether voluntary, involuntary or constructive), resignation, retirement, a
change of control of G3 or its subsidiaries, if any, or a change in responsibilities of a Named Executive Officer
following a change of control. G3 will consider entering into contracts with its Named Executive Officers
following completion of the Arrangement.
Director Compensation
G3 currently has no arrangements, standard or otherwise, pursuant to which directors are compensated by G3
for their services in their capacity as directors, or for committee participation, involvement in special
assignments or for services as a consultant or expert since its incorporation on December 5, 2024 and up to
and including the date of this Circular.
The G3 Option Plan, once implemented, will allow for the granting of incentive stock options to its officers,
employees and directors. The purpose of granting such options would be to assist G3 in compensating,
attracting, retaining and motivating the directors of G3 and to closely align the personal interests of such
persons to that of the G3 Shareholders. The G3 RSU Plan, once implemented, will allow for the granting of
G3 RSUs to directors, officers, employees and consultants of G3. The purpose of granting such G3 RSUs
would be to promote a greater alignment of interests between the G3 Shareholders and the selected eligible
persons by providing an opportunity to participate in increases in the value of G3.
Audit Committee and Corporate Governance
Audit Committee
G3 will appoint an audit committee (the "G3 Audit Committee") following the completion of the
Arrangement. Each member of the G3 Audit Committee to be appointed will have adequate education and
experience that is relevant to their performance as an audit committee member and, in particular, the requisite
education and experience that have provided the member with the ability to read and understand a set of
financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally
comparable to the breadth and complexity of the issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by G3's
financial statements.
It is intended that the G3 Audit Committee will establish a practice of approving audit and non-audit services
provided by the external auditor. The G3 Audit Committee intends to delegate to its Chair the authority, to
be exercised between regularly scheduled meetings of the G3 Audit Committee, to pre-approve audit and
non-audit services provided by the independent auditor. All such preapprovals would be reported by the Chair
at the meeting of the G3 Audit Committee next following the pre-approval.
The charter to be adopted by the G3 Audit Committee is expected to be substantially similar to that of G2's
Audit Committee charter, which is appended to the G2 AIF as Schedule "A".
102
Composition of the Audit Committee
The G3 Audit Committee is expected to consist of Antonio Paluzzi (Chair), Carmen Diges and Daniel Noone,
with all members (except Mr. Noone) being independent and all members being financially literate within the
meaning of NI 52-110.
Relevant Education and Experience
The education and experience of each proposed G3 Audit Committee member that is relevant to the
performance of such responsibilities as a G3 Audit Committee member are summarized below.
Name Education and Experience
Antonio Paluzzi Mr. Paluzzi has a Bachelor of Business Administration focused on
Accounting and Finance from York University Schulich School of
Business and is a Chartered Professional Accountant. He is the Chief
Financial Officer of York Marble, Tile and Terrazzo Inc. and worked as an
auditor with Ernst & Young, LLP, at the start of his career.
Carmen Diges Ms. Diges has experience practicing commercial law for over 25 years,
extensive work with boards on governance issues, advising management
teams, special committees, and routine and extraordinary matters. Ms. Diges
has held roles as General Counsel and Corporate Secretary for several
mining companies and financial services clients. She has an LL.M. in tax
and a CFA.
Daniel Noone Mr. Noone has more than 30 years of international mineral exploration and
development experience ranging from implementing grassroots programs
through to feasibility studies. He is currently the Chairman of GPM Metals
Inc. and President and Chief Executive Officer of G2 Goldfields Inc. and S2
Minerals Inc. Previous roles include Executive Director and V.P. of
Exploration at Guyana Goldfields, V.P. of Peruvian Operations for Aquiline
Resources Inc. and the President and CEO of Absolut Resources Inc. Mr.

Audit Fees
The following chart summarizes the aggregate fees billed by the external auditors of the Company for
professional services rendered to G3 during the fiscal years ended May 31, 2025 and 2024 for audit and non-
audit related services:
Type of Work Period Ended May 31,
2025
Audit fees(1)
Audit-related fees(2) $27,000
Tax advisory fees(3) $nil
All other fees $nil
Total $nil
$27,000
103
Notes:
(1) Aggregate fees billed for the Company's annual financial statements and services normally provided by the
auditor in connection with the Company's statutory and regulatory filings.
(2) Aggregate fees billed for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the
audit or review of the Company's financial statements and are not reported as "Audit fees", including:
assistance with aspects of tax accounting, attest services not required by state or regulation and consultation
regarding financial accounting and reporting standards.
(3) Aggregate fees billed for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning.
Corporate Governance
The Canadian Securities Administrators have published NI 58-101 and NP 58-201, setting forth guidelines
for effective corporate governance and corresponding disclosure requirements. NP 58-201 contains guidelines
concerning matters such as the constitution and independence of corporate boards, the functions to be
performed by boards and their committees and the effectiveness and education of board members. NI 58-101
requires disclosure by each corporation of its approach to corporate governance annually, as it is recognized
that the unique characteristics of individual corporations will result in varying degrees of compliance.
Set out below is a description of G3's approach to corporate governance as required pursuant to NI 58-101.
Board of Directors
The G3 Board will be comprised of five directors. The G3 Board has considered the independence of each of
its proposed directors under NI 52-110 and has concluded that each of its proposed directors are independent
for G3 Board purposes other than Messrs. J. Patrick Sheridan and Daniel Noone as a result of their roles as
officers of G3. To be considered independent for G3 Board purposes, the G3 Board must conclude that a
director does not have either a direct or indirect material relationship with G3 which, in the view of the G3
Board, could be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of the director's independent judgement.
The basis for this determination is that, since the incorporation of G3 on December 5, 2024, none of the
proposed directors other than Messrs. Sheridan and Noone have worked for G3, received remuneration from
G3 or had material contracts with or material interests in G3 which could interfere with their ability to act
with a view to the best interests of G3.
The G3 Board has taken steps to ensure that adequate structures and processes will be in place to permit it to
function independently of management of G3. The independent directors are expected to hold in camera
sessions without management present at meetings of the G3 Board, when considered necessary.
Directorships
Certain of the proposed directors of G3 are also directors of other reporting issuers (or equivalent) in a
jurisdiction or a foreign jurisdiction as follows:
Name of director Other reporting issuer (or equivalent in a foreign jurisdiction)
J. Patrick Sheridan G2 Goldfields Inc., S2 Minerals Inc.
Daniel Noone G2 Goldfields Inc., GPM Metals Inc., S2 Minerals Inc.
Declan Franzmann Vertex Minerals Limited
Antonio Paluzzi None
Carmen Diges NextTrip Inc., G2 Goldfields Inc.
104
Orientation and Continuing Education
The G3 Board does not have a formal orientation or education program for its members. The G3 Board's
continuing education is typically derived from correspondence with G3's legal counsel to remain up to date
with developments in relevant corporate and securities law matters.
Ethical Business Conduct
The G3 Board monitors the ethical conduct of G3 and ensures that it complies with applicable legal and
regulatory requirements, such as those of relevant securities commissions and stock exchanges. The G3 Board
expects to adopt a written code of business conduct and ethics (the "Code") for G3's directors, officers,
employees and consultants. In terms of the G3 Board monitoring compliance with the Code, it is expected
that those to whom it applies will be required to report any actual or potential violation of the Code or of any
law or regulation and to cooperate with any investigation by G3. The G3 Board also expects to adopt a
whistleblower policy which requires every employee to report any evidence of activity by any officer,
director, employee or consultant, that among other things, constitutes unethical business conduct in violation
of any G3 policy, such as the Code.
In addition, pursuant to the OBCA, the directors and officers of G3 are required, in exercising their powers
and discharging their duties to G3, to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of G3. A
director or officer of G3 who is a party to a material contract or transaction or proposed material contract or
transaction with G3 or who is a director or an officer of, or has a material interest in, any person who is a
party to a material contract or transaction or proposed material contract or transaction with G3 is required to
disclose the nature and extent of their interest to G3. If such a conflict of interest is disclosed by a director,
such director shall not attend any part of a meeting of directors during which the contract or transaction is
discussed and shall not vote on any resolution to approve the contract or transaction, except in very limited
circumstances.
Nomination of Directors
The G3 Compensation Committee will be responsible for the nominating and corporate governance
procedures of G3.
With respect to the director recruitment in general, the G3 Compensation Committee will be responsible for:
(a) conducting an analysis of the collection of tangible and intangible skills and qualities necessary for an
effective G3 Board given G3's current operational and financial condition, the industry in which it operates
and the strategic outlook of G3; (b) periodically comparing the tangible and intangible skills and qualities of
the existing G3 Board members with the analysis of required skills and identifying opportunities for
improvement; and (c) recommending, as required, changes to the selection criteria used by the G3 Board to
reflect the needs of the G3 Board. Nominees are to be selected for qualities such as integrity, business
judgment, independence, business or professional expertise, international experience, residency and
familiarity with geographic regions relevant to G3's strategic priorities. Additional considerations include:
(a) the competencies and skills that the G3 Board considers to be necessary for the G3 Board, as a whole, to
possess; (b) the competencies and skills that the G3 Board considers each existing director to possess; and (c)
the competencies and skills each new nominee will bring to the boardroom.
Compensation
The G3 Board will establish the G3 Compensation Committee which will be comprised of three directors,
namely Carmen Diges (Chair), Antonio Paluzzi and Daniel Noone, all of whom (except Mr. Noone) are
considered "independent" for G3 Compensation Committee purposes.
105
The overall objectives of G3's compensation program relating to compensation matters include the following:
dot reviewing G3's overall compensation philosophy;
dot reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to CEO compensation (taking into
account both short-term and long-term compensation goals) and evaluating the CEO's performance
in light of stated corporate goals and objectives;
dot reviewing succession planning for the CEO;
dot in consultation with the CEO, overseeing the evaluation of G3's executive officers and determining
the compensation of executive officers other than the CEO;
dot reviewing the adequacy, amount and form of compensation paid to each director (and considering
whether such compensation realistically reflects the time commitment, responsibilities and risks of
directors);
dot reviewing the incentive compensation plans; and
dot reviewing the equity-based compensation plans, including the designation of those who may
participate in such plans and the issuance of options in accordance with such plans.
The G3 Compensation Committee will engage and compensate any outside adviser that it determines to be
necessary or advisable to carry out its duties. The G3 Compensation Committee will review compensation
paid to directors and officers of companies of similar industries, size and stage of development, and makes
such other enquiries deemed necessary on a case-by-case basis, in order to determine appropriate
compensation levels for the directors and officers of G3.
Diversity Disclosure
G3's proposed senior management and the proposed members of the G3 Board have diverse backgrounds
and expertise and were selected on the belief that G3 and its stakeholders would benefit from such a broad
range of talent and experiences. The G3 Board considers merit as the key requirement for board and executive
appointments, and as such, it has not adopted any target number or percentage, or a range of target numbers
or percentages, respecting the representation of women, Indigenous peoples, persons with disabilities, or
members of visible minorities (collectively, "members of designated groups") on the G3 Board or in senior
management roles. G3 has not adopted a written diversity policy and seeks to attract and maintain diversity
at the executive and board of directors' levels informally through the recruitment efforts of management in
discussion with directors prior to proposing nominees to the G3 Board as a whole for consideration.
Although the level of representation of members of designated groups is one of many factors taken into
consideration in making G3 Board and executive officer appointments, emphasis is placed on hiring or
advancing the most qualified individuals. As of the date of this Circular, no members of the G3 Board are
female. It is expected that following the completion of the Arrangement, one member of the G3 Board will
be female, representing 20% of the proposed Board members. No members of designated groups currently
hold positions in senior management.
Director Term Limits
G3 does not have a policy that limits the term of the directors on the G3 Board and has not provided other
mechanisms of board renewal. At this time, the G3 Board does not believe that it is in the best interest of G3
106
to establish term limits on a director's mandate or a mandatory retirement age. The G3 Board is of the opinion
that term limits may disadvantage G3 through the loss of beneficial contributions of directors who have
developed increasing knowledge of G3, its operations, and the industry over a period of time.
Other Committees
The G3 Board is expected to have no standing committees other than the G3 Audit Committee and G3
Compensation Committee.
Risk Factors
In addition to the other information contained in this Circular, the following factors should be considered
carefully when considering risk related to G3's proposed business.
Nature of the Securities and No Assurance of any Listing
G3 Shares are not currently listed on any stock exchange and there is no assurance that the shares will be
listed. Even if a listing is obtained, the holding of G3 Shares will involve a high degree of risk and should be
undertaken only by investors whose financial resources are sufficient to enable them to assume such risks and
who have no need for immediate liquidity in their investment. G3 Shares should not be held by persons who
cannot afford the possibility of the loss of their entire investment. Furthermore, an investment in securities of
G3 should not constitute a major portion of an investor's portfolio.
Possible Non-Completion of Arrangement
There is no assurance that the Arrangement will receive regulatory, court or shareholder approval or will
complete. If the Arrangement does not complete, G3 will remain a private company and wholly-owned
subsidiary of G2. If the Arrangement is completed, G3 Shareholders (which will consist of G2 Shareholders
who receive G3 Shares) will be subject to the risk factors described below relating to resource properties.
Limited Operating History
G3 was incorporated on December 5, 2024 and has a limited operating history and no operating revenues.
Dependence on Management
G3 will be very dependent upon the personal efforts and commitment of its directors and officers, especially
Mr. J. Patrick Sheridan, who is expected to be G3's Executive Chairman, and Mr. Daniel Noone, G3's
President and Chief Executive Officer. If one or more of G3's proposed executive officers become
unavailable for any reason, a severe disruption to the business and operations of G3 could result, and G3 may
not be able to replace them readily, if at all. As G3's business activity grows, G3 will require additional key
financial, administrative and mining personnel as well as additional operations staff. There can be no
assurance that G3 will be successful in attracting, training and retaining qualified personnel as competition
for persons with these skill sets increase. If G3 is not successful in attracting, training and retaining qualified
personnel, the efficiency of its operations could be impaired, which could have an adverse impact on G3's
future cash flows, earnings, results of operations and financial condition.
Reliance on Professional Advisors and Service Providers
G3 relies and is expected to rely on a number of professional advisors and service providers, including
external auditors, legal counsel and its proposed accounting and CFO service provider. These professionals
107
are subject to their respective professional and/or regulatory requirements and they may not comply with all
regulatory requirements or may fail to perform to their respective professional standards. They may not
comply with their obligations to G3 or perform their services in a timely or acceptable manner. The failure of
such professionals to comply with their respective regulatory requirements or professional standards could
affect G3 in ways that are not predictable, including ways that could have a material adverse effect on G3's
business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.
G3's operations are subject to human error
Despite efforts to attract and retain qualified personnel, as well as the retention of qualified consultants, to
manage G3's interests, and even when those efforts are successful, people are fallible and human error could
result in significant uninsured losses to G3. These could include loss or forfeiture of mineral claims or other
assets for non-payment of fees or taxes, significant tax liabilities in connection with any tax planning effort
G3 might undertake and legal claims for errors or mistakes by G3 personnel.
Financing Risks
If the Arrangement is completed, additional funding will be required to conduct future exploration programs
on the Non-Core Assets and to conduct other exploration programs. If G3's proposed exploration programs
are successful, additional funds will be required for the development of an economic mineral body and to
place it in commercial production. The only sources of future funds presently available to G3 are the sale of
equity capital, or the offering by G3 of an interest in its properties to be earned by another party or parties
carrying out exploration or development thereof. There is no assurance that any such funds will be available
for operations. Failure to obtain additional financing on a timely basis could cause G3 to reduce or terminate
its proposed operations.
United States Tariffs and Retaliatory Tariffs
Potential US-led tariffs imposed on Canada or Guyana, and the retaliatory tariffs that Canada or Guyana may
implement, may impact G3 as tariff amounts and the goods to which they are applicable may vary. While G3
does not expect tariffs to have a significant impact on G3's financial condition at this time, there is no
assurance that any future changes in the tariffs and resulting downturns in the Canadian and global economic
conditions will not adversely affect G3.
Reputational Risk
As a result of the increased usage and the speed and global reach of social media and other web-based tools
used to generate, publish and discuss user-generated content and to connect with other users, companies today
are at much greater risk of losing control over how they are perceived in the marketplace. Damage to G3's
reputation can be the result of the actual or perceived occurrence of any number of events, and could include
any negative publicity (for example, with respect to G3's handling of environmental matters or G3's dealings
with community groups), whether true or not. G3 places a great emphasis on protecting its image and
reputation, but G3 does not ultimately have direct control over how it is perceived by others. Reputation loss
may lead to increased challenges in developing and maintaining community relations, decreased investor
confidence and an impediment to G3's overall ability to advance its projects, thereby having a material
adverse impact on financial performance, cash flows and growth prospects.
Epidemics, Pandemics, Natural Disasters, Terrorist Acts and Other Disruptions
Global markets have been adversely impacted by natural disasters, terrorist acts, health crises and other
disruptions, including infectious diseases and the threat of outbreaks of viruses and other contagions, the
108
Russian invasion of Ukraine, and conflicts in the Middle East. Global financial conditions could suddenly
and rapidly destabilize in response to existing and future events, as government authorities may have limited
resources to respond to existing or future crises. Global capital markets have continued to display increased
volatility in response to global events. Future crises may be precipitated by any number of causes, including
natural disasters, epidemics, geopolitical instability and war (such as the Russian invasion of Ukraine and
conflicts in the Middle East), changes to energy prices or sovereign defaults. Any sudden or rapid
destabilization of global economic conditions could negatively impact G3's ability to obtain financing or
make arrangements to finance its operations. If increased levels of volatility continue or in the event of a rapid
destabilization of global economic conditions, it may result in a material adverse effect on G3 and the trading
price of G3's securities could be adversely affected.
Conflicts of Interest
Certain directors and officers of G3 are, and may continue to be, involved in the mining and mineral
exploration industry through their direct and indirect participation in corporations, partnerships or joint
ventures which are potential competitors of G3, including possibly G2. Situations may arise in connection
with potential acquisitions in investments where the other interests of these directors and officers may conflict
with the interests of G3. Directors and officers of G3 with conflicts of interest will be subject to the procedures
set out in applicable corporate and securities legislation, regulation, rules and policies.
No History of Earnings
G3 has no history of earnings or of a return on investment, and there is no assurance that the Non-Core Assets
or any other property or business that G3 may acquire or undertake will generate earnings, operate profitably
or provide a return on investment in the future. G3 has no plans to pay dividends for some time in the future.
The future dividend policy of G3 will be determined by the G3 Board.
Exploration and Development
Resource exploration and development is a speculative business and involves a high degree of risk. There is
no known body of commercial ore on the Non-Core Assets. There is no certainty that the expenditures to be
made by G3 in the exploration of the Non-Core Assets or otherwise will result in discoveries of commercial
quantities of minerals. The marketability of natural resources which may be acquired or discovered by G3
will be affected by numerous factors beyond the control of G3. These factors include market fluctuations, the
proximity and capacity of natural resource markets and processing equipment, government regulations,
including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, importing and exporting of
minerals and environmental protection. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but
the combination of these factors may result in G3 not receiving an adequate return on invested capital.
Political, Economic, Social, Security, and Other Risks of Operating in Guyana
The Non-Core Assets are located in Guyana; consequently, G3 is dependent upon the performance of the
Guyanese economy. As a result, G3's business, financial position and results of operations may be affected
by the general conditions of the Guyanese economy, price instabilities, currency fluctuations, inflation,
interest rates, regulation, taxation, social instabilities, political unrest and other developments in or affecting
Guyana over which G3 has no control. In addition, G3's exploration and production activities may be affected
in varying degrees by political instability and government regulations relating to the industry.
In the past, Guyana has experienced periods of weak economic activity and deterioration in economic
conditions. Despite the successive years of growth and the high projection of further growth for the economy
in the immediate future due to the activities in the oil and gas industry, G3 cannot assure that such conditions
109
will not return or that such conditions will not have a material adverse effect on G3's business, financial
condition or results of operations.
G3's financial condition and results of operations may also be affected by changes in the political climate in
Guyana, to the extent that such changes affect the nation's economic policies, growth, stability or regulatory
environment. Exploration may be affected in varying degrees by government regulations with respect to
restrictions on future exploitation and production, price controls, export controls, foreign exchange controls,
income taxes, wealth taxes, expropriation of property, environmental legislation and site safety. There can be
no assurance that the Guyanese government will continue to pursue business-friendly and open-market
economic policies or policies that stimulate economic growth and social stability.
In Guyana, the government has historically exercised substantial influence on the local economy. However,
in relation to the mining and the extractive industry, influence has more been related to legislation and
regulations rather than direct participation in the industry.
The political uncertainty and the potential for political corruption in Guyana may have an adverse impact on
G3's business, financial condition and results of operations. Exploration may be affected in varying degrees
by government regulations with respect to restrictions on future exploitation and production, price controls,
export controls, foreign exchange controls, income or mining taxes, expropriation of property, environmental
legislation and permitting and mine or site safety.
In addition, G3's business could be adversely affected by the effect of the ongoing boarder controversy
between Guyana and Venezuela. The internationally recognized border between Guyana and Venezuela was
established in 1899 by an arbitration panel and the territory of Guyana has been continuously administered
and controlled by Guyana since that time. The Venezuelan government claims that the Essequibo territory, a
large area within Guyana that is west of the Essequibo River extending to the border of Venezuela, belongs
to Venezuela. On December 3, 2023, the government of Venezuela held a consultative referendum over
control of the Essequibo territory. The results of the referendum, including Venezuela's unilateral claim over
the Essequibo territory and disregard for the jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice ("ICJ") in this
matter have been widely discredited. The ICJ decided unanimously that "pending a final decision in the case,
the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela shall refrain from taking any action which would modify the situation
that currently prevails in the territory in dispute, whereby the Co-operative Republic of Guyana administers
and exercises control over that area".
On December 14, 2023, officials from Venezuela and Guyana signed the Argyle Accord, which declared that
force would not be used by either country, and that controversies between the two countries would be resolved
in accordance with international law. The Non-Core Assets fall within this Essequibo area, the sovereign
territory of Guyana. G3's activities at the Non-Core Assets, including exploration, technical and
environmental studies, along with coordination with governmental agencies, are expected to be unaffected by
recent events, though G3 will continue to monitor the situation closely. Uncertainty caused by the political
conflict may negatively impact G3's financial position, financial performance, cash flows, and its ability to
raise capital. The impacts of the conflict on G3's planned exploration activities, including technical and
engineering studies, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
G3's property interests and proposed exploration activities in Guyana are subject to political, economic and
other uncertainties, including the risk of expropriation, nationalization, renegotiation or nullification of
existing contracts, mining licenses and permits or other agreements, changes in laws or taxation policies,
currency exchange restrictions, changing political conditions, and international monetary fluctuations. Future
government actions concerning the economy, taxation, or the operation and regulation of nationally important
facilities such as mines, could have a significant effect on G3.
110
Environmental Risks and Other Regulatory Requirements
The current or future operations of G3, including future exploration and development activities and
commencement of production on its property or properties, will require permits or licences from various
federal and local governmental authorities, and such operations are and will be governed by laws and
regulations governing prospecting, development, mining, production, taxes, labour standards, occupational
health, waste disposal, toxic substances, land use, environmental protection, mine safety and other matters.
Companies engaged in the development and operation of mines and related facilities generally experience
increased costs and delays as a result of the need to comply with the applicable laws, regulations and permits.
There can be no assurance that all permits which G3 may require for the conduct of its operations will be
obtainable on reasonable terms or that such laws and regulations would not have an adverse effect on any
project which G3 might undertake.
Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement
actions including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed,
and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment or
remedial actions. Parties engaged in mining operations may be required to compensate those suffering loss
or damage by reason of such activities and may have civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed upon them
for violation of applicable laws or regulations.
Amendments to current laws, regulations and permits governing operations and activities of mining
companies and mine reclamation and remediation activities, or more stringent implementation thereof, could
have a material adverse impact on G3 and cause increases in capital expenditures or production costs or
reduction in levels of production at producing properties or require abandonment or delays in the development
of new mining properties.
Dilution
Issuances of additional securities including, but not limited to, G3 Shares or some form of convertible
securities, will result in a substantial dilution of the equity interests of any persons who may become G3
Shareholders as a result of or subsequent to the Arrangement.
Market for securities
There is currently no market through which the G3 Shares may be sold and G2 Shareholders may not be able
to resell the G3 Shares acquired under the Plan of Arrangement. There can be no assurance that an active
trading market will develop for the G3 Shares following the completion of the Plan of Arrangement, or if
developed, that such a market will be sustained at the trading price of the G3 Shares on the CSE.
Nature of Mineral Exploration and Development
All of G3's operations are at the exploration stage and there is no guarantee that any such activity will result
in commercial production of mineral deposits. The exploration for mineral deposits involves significant risks
which even a combination of careful evaluation, experience and knowledge may not eliminate. While the
discovery of an ore body may result in substantial rewards, few properties which are explored are ultimately
developed into producing mines. Major expenses may be required to locate and establish mineral reserves, to
develop metallurgical processes and to construct mining and processing facilities at a particular site. It is
impossible to ensure that the exploration programs planned by G3 or any future development programs will
result in a profitable commercial mining operation. There is no assurance that the G3's mineral exploration
activities will result in any discoveries of commercial quantities of ore. There is also no assurance that, even
if commercial quantities of ore are discovered, a mineral property will be brought into commercial production.
111
Whether a mineral deposit will be commercially viable depends on a number of factors, some of which are:
the particular attributes of the deposit, such as size, grade and proximity to infrastructure, metal prices which
are highly cyclical; and government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land
tenure, land use, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. The exact effect of these
factors cannot be accurately predicted. The long-term profitability of G3 will be in part directly related to the
cost and success of its exploration programs and any subsequent development programs.
No Operating History
Exploration projects have no operating history upon which to base estimates of future cash flows. Substantial
expenditures are required to develop mineral projects. It is possible that actual costs and future economic
returns may differ materially from G3's estimates. There can be no assurance that the underlying assumed
levels of expenses for any project will prove to be accurate. Further, it is not unusual in the mining industry
for new mining operations to experience unexpected problems during start-up, resulting in delays and
requiring more capital than anticipated. There can be no assurance that G3's projects will move beyond the
exploration stage and be put into production, achieve commercial production or that G3 will produce revenue,
operate profitably or provide a return on investment in the future. Mineral exploration involves considerable
financial and technical risk. There can be no assurance that the funds required for exploration and future
development can be obtained on a timely basis. There can be no assurance that G3 will not suffer significant
losses in the near future or that G3 will ever be profitable.
Commodity Prices
The price of the G3 Shares and G3's financial results may be significantly adversely affected by a decline in
the price of gold and other mineral commodities. Metal prices fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous
factors beyond G3's control. The level of interest rates, the rate of inflation, world supply of mineral
commodities, global and regional consumption patterns, speculative trading activities, the value of the United
States dollar and stability of exchange rates can all cause significant fluctuations in prices. Such external
economic factors are in turn influenced by changes in international investment patterns and monetary systems,
political systems and political and economic developments. The price of mineral commodities has fluctuated
widely in recent years and future serious price declines could cause potential commercial production to be
uneconomic. A severe decline in the price of minerals would have a material adverse effect on G3.
Acquisition Strategy
As part of G3's business strategy, it has sought and will continue to seek new exploration, development and
mining opportunities in the resource industry. In pursuit of such opportunities, G3 may fail to select
appropriate acquisition candidates or negotiate acceptable arrangements, including arrangements to finance
acquisitions or integrate the acquired businesses and their personnel into G3. G3 cannot assure that it can
complete any acquisition or business arrangement that it pursues, or is pursuing, on favourable terms, or that
any acquisitions or business arrangements completed will ultimately benefit G3.
Dividend Policy
No dividends on G3 Shares have been paid by G3 to date. G3 anticipates that it will retain all earnings and
other cash resources for the foreseeable future for the operation and development of its business. G3 does not
intend to declare or pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Payment of any future dividends will
be at the discretion of the G3 Board after taking into account many factors, including G3's operating results,
financial condition and current and anticipated cash needs.
112
Permitting
G3's mineral property interests are subject to receiving and maintaining permits from appropriate
governmental authorities. There is no assurance that delays will not occur in connection with obtaining all
necessary renewals of existing permits, additional permits for any possible future developments or changes
to operations or additional permits associated with new legislation. Prior to any development of any of their
properties, G3 must receive permits from appropriate governmental authorities. There can be no assurance
that G3 will continue to hold all permits necessary to develop or continue its activities at any particular
property. Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in
enforcement actions thereunder, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing activities
to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures or remedial
actions. Amendments to current laws, regulations and permitting requirements, or more stringent application
of existing laws, may have a material adverse impact on G3, resulting in increased capital expenditures and
other costs or abandonment or delays in development of properties.
Land Title
The acquisition of title to resource properties is a very detailed and time-consuming process. No assurances
can be given that there are no title defects affecting the properties in which G3 has an interest. The properties
may be subject to prior unregistered liens, agreements, transfers or claims, including native land claims, and
title may be affected by, among other things, undetected defects. Other parties may dispute the title to a
property or the property may be subject to prior unregistered agreements and transfers or land claims by
Indigenous people. The title may also be affected by undetected encumbrances or defects or governmental
actions. G3 has not conducted surveys of properties in which it holds an interest and the precise area and
location of claims or the properties may be challenged. G3 may not be able to register rights and interests it
acquires against title to applicable mineral properties. An inability to register such rights and interests may
limit or severely restrict G3's ability to enforce such acquired rights and interests against third parties or may
render certain agreements entered into by G3 invalid, unenforceable, uneconomic, unsatisfied or ambiguous,
the effect of which may cause financial results yielded to differ materially from those anticipated. Although
G3 believes it has taken reasonable measures to ensure proper title to the properties in which it has an interest,
there is no guarantee that such title will not be challenged or impaired.
Influence of Third-Party Stakeholders
The mineral properties in which G3 holds an interest, or the exploration equipment and road or other means
of access which G3 intends to utilize in carrying out its work programs or general business mandates, may be
subject to interests or claims by third party individuals, groups or companies. In the event that such third
parties assert any claims, G3's work programs may be delayed even if such claims are not meritorious. Such
claims may result in significant financial loss and loss of opportunity for G3.
Insurance
Exploration, development and production operations on mineral properties involve numerous risks, including
unexpected or unusual geological operating conditions, ground or slope failures, fires, environmental
occurrences and natural phenomena such as prolonged periods of inclement weather conditions, floods and
earthquakes. It is not always possible to obtain insurance against all such risks and G3 may decide not to
insure against certain risks because of high premiums or other reasons. Such occurrences could result in
damage to, or destruction of, mineral properties or production facilities, personal injury or death,
environmental damage to G3's properties or the properties of others, delays in exploration, development or
mining operations, monetary losses and possible legal liability. G3 expects to maintain insurance within
ranges of coverage which it believes to be consistent with industry practice for companies of a similar stage
113
of development. G3 expects to carry liability insurance with respect to its mineral exploration operations, but
is not expected to cover any form of political risk insurance or certain forms of environmental liability
insurance, since insurance against political risks and environmental risks (including liability for pollution) or
other hazards resulting from exploration and development activities is prohibitively expensive. Should such
liabilities arise, they could reduce or eliminate future profitability and result in increasing costs and a decline
in the value of the securities of G3. If G3 is unable to fully fund the cost of remedying an environmental
problem, it might be required to suspend operations or enter into costly interim compliance measures pending
completion of a permanent remedy. The lack of, or insufficiency of, insurance coverage could adversely affect
G3's future cash flow and overall profitability.
Significant Competition for Attractive Mineral Properties
Significant and increasing competition exists for the limited number of mineral acquisition opportunities
available. G3 expects to selectively seek strategic acquisitions in the future, however, there can be no
assurance that suitable acquisition opportunities will be identified. As a result of this competition, some of
which is with large established mining companies with substantial capabilities and greater financial and
technical resources than G3, G3 may be unable to acquire additional attractive mineral properties on terms it
considers acceptable. In addition, G3's ability to consummate and to integrate effectively any future
acquisitions on terms that are favourable to G3 may be limited by the number of attractive acquisition targets,
internal demands on resources, competition from other mining companies and, to the extent necessary, G3's
ability to obtain financing on satisfactory terms, if at all.
Promoter
G2 took the initiative in G3's organization and, accordingly, may be considered to be the promoter of G3
within the meaning of applicable Securities Legislation. G2 will not, at the closing of the Arrangement,
beneficially own, or control or direct, any G3 Shares. During the period from incorporation to and including
the closing of the Arrangement, the only material thing of value which G2 has or will receive from G3 is the
G3 Shares to be issued to G2 in consideration for the transfer to G3 by G2 of the Non-Core Assets, which G3
Shares will be distributed to the G2 Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement.
Legal Proceedings
G3 is not a party to any material legal proceedings and G3 is not aware of any such proceedings known to be
contemplated.
Interests of Management and Others in Material Transactions
No director, executive officer or greater than 10% shareholder of G3 and no associate or affiliate of the
foregoing persons has or had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction since incorporation
or in any proposed transaction which in either such case has materially affected or will materially affect G3
save as described herein.
Auditors
The auditors of G3 are MNP LLP at its Toronto office with the address 1 Adelaide Street East, Suite 1900,
Toronto, ON M5C 2V9.
114
Registrar and Transfer Agent
The registrar and transfer agent for the G3 Shares is TSX Trust Company at its principal offices at Suite 301,
100 Adelaide Street West, Toronto, Ontario, M5H 4H1.
Material Contracts
The only agreements or contracts that G3 has entered into since its incorporation or will enter into as part of
the Arrangement which may be reasonably regarded as being material is the Arrangement Agreement dated
October 15, 2025 between G3 and G2. See "Arrangement Agreement".
A copy of the Arrangement Agreement is available under G2's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
Interests of Experts
MNP LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, is the auditor of G3 and is independent of G3 within the
meaning of the Rules of Professional Conduct of the Chartered Professional Accountants of Ontario.
Ms. Chitrali Sarkar and Messrs. William J. Lewis and Mike Round of Micon International Limited prepared
the Spin-Out Technical Report. As of the date of this Circular, none of Ms. Sarkar and Messrs. Lewis and

RIGHTS OF DISSENT
3.1 Rights of Dissent
Pursuant to the Interim Order, registered holders of G2 Shares may exercise rights of dissent (the "Dissent
Rights") under Section 190 of the CBCA, as modified by this Article 3, the Interim Order and the Final
Order, with respect to G2 Shares in connection with the Arrangement, provided that the written objection

by G2 not later than 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the Business Day that is two Business Days before the
Meeting or any date to which the Meeting may be postponed or adjourned and provided further that holders
who exercise such rights of dissent and who:
(a) are ultimately entitled to be paid fair value for their Dissent Shares, which fair value,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 190 of the CBCA, will be
C-5
deemed to have irrevocably transferred such Dissent Shares to G2 pursuant to Section

(b) are ultimately not entitled, for any reason, to be paid fair value for their G2 Shares shall be
deemed to have participated in the Arrangement, as of the Effective Time, on the same
basis as a non-dissenting holder of G2 Shares.

In no circumstances shall G2 or any other Person be required to recognize a Person exercising Dissent
Rights unless such Person is a registered holder of those G2 Shares in respect of which such rights are
sought to be exercised. From and after the Effective Date, neither G2 nor any other Person shall be required
to recognize a Dissenting Shareholder as a shareholder of G2 and the names of the Dissenting Shareholders
shall be deleted from the register of holders of G2 Shares previously maintained or caused to be maintained
by G2.

For greater certainty, in addition to any other restrictions in the CBCA, none of the following shall be
entitled to exercise Dissent Rights: (a) holders of options and restricted share units; and (b) G2 Shareholders
who vote (or have instructed a proxyholder to vote) in favour of the Arrangement Resolution.
ARTICLE 4
CERTIFICATES AND FRACTIONAL SECURITIES

As soon as practicable following the Effective Date, G2 and G3, as applicable, will forward or cause to be
forwarded by the Transfer Agent, by registered mail (postage prepaid) or hand delivery to G2 Shareholders
as of the Effective Date at the address specified in the register of G2 Shareholders, certificates representing
the number of G3 Shares to be delivered to such G2 Shareholders under the Arrangement.
4.2 Withholding Rights
G2, G3, and the Transfer Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amount otherwise payable
to any G2 Shareholder or G3 Shareholder, as applicable, such amounts as G2, G3, or the Transfer Agent is
required or permitted to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment under the Tax Act, the United
States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or any provision of any applicable federal, provincial, state, local or
foreign tax law or treaty, in each case, as amended. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such
withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes hereof as having been paid to the G2 Shareholder or G3
Shareholder, as applicable, in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, provided that
such withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate taxing authority.

No fractional G3 Shares will be distributed or issued, as applicable. In the event that a G2 Shareholder or
G3 Shareholder would otherwise be entitled to a fractional G3 Share hereunder, the number of G3 Shares
distributed to such G2 Shareholder shall, without any additional compensation, be rounded down to the
next lesser whole number of G3 Shares. In calculating such fractional interests, all G2 Shares registered in
the name of or beneficially held by such G2 Shareholder or their nominee shall be aggregated.

Independent Auditor's Report
To the Shareholder of G3 Goldfields Inc.:
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of G3 Goldfields Inc. (the "Company"), which comprise the statement of
financial position as at May 31, 2025, and the statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in shareholder's
deficiency and cash flows for the period from December 5, 2024 (date of incorporation) to May 31, 2025, and notes
to the financial statements, including material accounting policy information.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
the Company as at May 31, 2025, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the period from December 5,
2024 (date of incorporation) to May 31, 2025 in accordance with IFRStrademark Accounting Standards as issued by the
International Accounting Standards Board.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities
under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are
relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in
accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises Management's Discussion
and Analysis.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of
assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in
doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our
knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. We obtained Management's
Discussion and Analysis prior to the date of this auditor's report. If, based on the work we have performed on this
other information, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to
report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with
IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and for such internal control
as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of
accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic
alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with
Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they
could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial
statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional
judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is
sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material
misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion,
forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of
the Company's internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by management.
Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based
on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that
may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a
material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures
in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are
based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or
conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures,
and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that
achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and
timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we
identify during our audit.

Notes to Financial Statements
Period from December 5, 2024 (Date of Incorporation) to May 31, 2025
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
1. Nature of business
G3 Goldfields Inc. ("G3" or the "Company") was incorporated on December 5, 2024 under the laws of the Province of
Ontario, Canada, as a wholly owned subsidiary of G2 Goldfields Inc. ("G2"). Its head office is located at 141 Adelaide
Street West, Suite 1101, Toronto, Ontario, M5H 3L5.
On December 12, 2024, G2 and G3 entered into an arrangement agreement, wherein G2 was to transfer to G3 its
interest in certain non-core assets and cash in an amount to be determined by G2 to satisfy G3's working capital and
initial listing requirements, and spin-out all of the common shares of G3 to G2's shareholders on a pro rata basis,
through a plan of arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act. The arrangement agreement was
terminated by G2 in June 2025.
The Company's financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on October 23, 2025.
2. Basis of preparation
Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRStrademark Accounting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by
the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and Interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee.
Basis of measurement
The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for financial instruments classified at fair
value through profit or loss ("FVTPL") which are stated at fair values. The Company's functional and presentation
currency is Canadian dollars.
Use of estimates and judgment
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
Areas requiring significant estimates and judgments by management include, but are not limited to:
Going concern - The assessment of whether the going concern assumption is appropriate requires management to
take into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but not limited to twelve months from
the end of the reporting period.

Cash
Cash consist of cash held in trust and in financial institutions.

3. Material accounting policies (continued)
Income taxes
Income tax on the profit or loss for the period presented comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized
in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in
equity.
Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the period, using tax rates enacted or
substantively enacted at period end, adjusted for amendments to tax payable with regards to previous years.
Deferred tax is recorded for temporary differences, between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred income taxes are recorded to recognize tax
benefits only to the extent, based on available evidence, that it is probable that they will be realized. The following
temporary differences are not provided for: goodwill not deductible for tax purposes; and the initial recognition of assets
or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable loss and at the time of the transaction, does not give rise to equal
taxable and deductible temporary differences.
The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying
amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates expected to be applied to temporary differences which may reverse,
based on tax laws, enacted or substantively enacted at the consolidated statement of financial position date.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against
current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company
intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the financial instrument.
Below is a summary showing the classification and measurement bases of the Company's financial instruments.
Cash Classification
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities
Due to related party FVTPL
Amortized cost
Amoritized cost
Financial assets
Financial assets are classified as either financial assets at FVTPL, amortized cost, or FVTOCI. The Company
determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
Financial assets recorded at FVTPL
Financial assets are classified as FVTPL if they do not meet the criteria of amortized cost or FVTOCI. Gains or losses
on these items are recognized in profit or loss.

3. Material accounting policies (continued)
Financial instruments (continued)
Investments recorded at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Company may irrevocably elect to measure
the investment at FVOCI whereby changes in the investment's fair value (realized and unrealized) will be recognized
permanently in OCI with no reclassification to profit or loss. The election is made on an investment-by-investment
basis.
Amortized cost
Financial assets are classified as measured at amortized cost if both of the following criteria are met and the financial
assets are not designated as at FVTPL: 1) the object of the Company's business model for these financial assets is to
collect their contractual cash flows, and 2) the asset's contractual cash flows represent "solely payments of principal
and interest".
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at FVTPL or at amortized cost. The Company determines
the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition.
Amortized cost
Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortized cost unless they fall into one of the following categories:
financial liabilities at FVTPL, financial liabilities that arise when a transfer of a financial asset does not qualify for
derecognition, financial guarantee contracts, commitments to provide a loan at a below-market interest rate, or
contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination.
Financial liabilities recorded FVTPL
Financial liabilities are classified as FVTPL if they fall into one of the five exemptions detailed above.
Transaction costs
Transaction costs associated with financial instruments, carried at FVTPL, are expensed as incurred, while transaction
costs associated with all other financial instruments are included in the initial carrying amount of the asset or the
liability.
Subsequent measurement
Instruments classified as FVTPL are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized in profit or
loss. Instruments classified as amortized cost are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.
Instruments classified as FVTOCI are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized in other
comprehensive income.
Derecognition
The Company derecognizes financial liabilities only when its obligations under the financial liabilities are discharged,
cancelled, or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the
consideration paid and payable, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit
or loss.

3. Material accounting policies (continued)
Financial instruments (continued)
Financial instruments at fair value through profit and loss
Financial instruments recorded at fair value on the statements of financial position are classified using a fair value
hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the
following levels:
Level 1 - valuation based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - valuation techniques based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for
the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
Level 3 - valuation techniques using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data
(unobservable inputs).
As at May 31, 2025, the Company did not hold financial instruments recorded at fair value that would require
classification within the fair value hierarchy, except for cash (Level 1). The carrying value of the financial instruments
noted above approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Earnings (loss) per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares of the Company
outstanding during the period. The diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution of common share
equivalents in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, if dilutive.
New and revised IFRSs, amendments to IFRSs and IFRS interpretations not yet effective
IFRS 18 - Presentation and disclosure in financial statements
In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, focusing on presentation and disclosure in financial statements. Key changes
would impact the structure of the statement of loss and comprehensive loss and amendments to disclosure
requirements for certain profit or loss performance measures. IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1, effective reporting period
beginning on January 1, 2027. This will also impact comparative information at the point of adoption. An assessment of
the impact of the new standard will be performed on the financial statements to which the pronouncement applies.

4. Financial instruments and objectives and policies
The Company manages its exposure to a number of different financial risks arising from operations as well as from the
use of financial instruments, including market risks (foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate), credit risk and
liquidity risk, through its risk management strategy. The objective of the strategy is to support the delivery of the
Company's financial targets while protecting its future financial security and flexibility. Financial risks are primarily
managed and monitored through operating and financing activities. The Company does not use derivative financial
instruments. The financial risks are evaluated regularly with due consideration to changes in key economic indicators
and to up-to-date market information. The Company's risk exposures and the impact on the Company's financial
instruments are summarized below:
Credit risk
Credit risk is the financial risk of non-performance of a contracted counter party. The Company's credit risk is primarily
attributable to cash. The Company reduces its credit risk by maintaining its cash with reputable financial institutions.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations associated with financial liabilities as
they come due. The Company monitors its liquidity position and budgets future expenditures, in order to ensure that it
will have sufficient capital to satisfy liabilities as they come due.
As at May 31, 2025, the Company had current liabilities of $30,477 and has cash of $221 to meet its current
obligations. The Company regularly evaluates its cash position to ensure preservation and security of capital as well as
maintenance of liquidity.
Market risk
Foreign currency risk
The Company has no significant risk from foreign currency risk.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes
in market interest rates. The Company has no significant risk to future cash flows from interest rate risk. The Company
does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk.
5. Capital management
The Company considers its capital to consist of its shareholder's deficiency balance, which as at May 31, 2025, totaled
$30,256.
The Company's objective when managing capital is to maintain adequate levels of funding to support its business
activities and to maintain corporate and administrative functions necessary to support operational activities.
The Company manages its capital structure in a manner that provides sufficient funding for operational activities. Funds
are primarily secured through equity capital raised by way of private placements. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to continue raising equity capital in the future.
There were no changes to the Company's approach to capital risk management during the period ended May 31, 2025
and the Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

which G2 will spin out its interests in certain non-core assets in Guyana to the Company pursuant to a plan of
arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the "Arrangement"). The Arrangement is expected to be
completed before the end of 2025. Pursuant to the Arrangement, G2 is expected to, among other things, transfer its
interest in certain non-core assets in Guyana and a sufficient amount of cash (such amount to be determined by G2 at
the relevant time) to satisfy its working capital and initial listing requirements (which G2 anticipates to be approximately
$15 million), and spin out all of the common shares of G3 to G2's shareholders on a pro rata basis such that each G2
shareholder receives one G3 share for every two G2 shares held.

For the Period from December 5, 2024 (Date of Incorporation) to May 31, 2025
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet
its liabilities when due. As of May 31, 2025, the Company had a cash balance of $221 and was dependent
on funding from G2 and the successful completion of the Prior Spin-Out to continue operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of the date of this MD&A, the Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or
are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the results of operations or financial conditions of
the Company including, without limitation, such considerations as liquidity and capital resources that have
not been previously discussed.
Proposed Transactions
As of May 31, 2025, the Prior Spin-Out had not been completed, and was subsequently terminated in June
2025. As of the date of this MD&A, the Arrangement has not been completed, and is expected to be
completed by the end of 2025. There are no additional proposed transactions as at the date of this MD&A.
Related Party Transactions
As at May 31, 2025, amounts due to a related party totaled $18,477. This balance represent amounts
advanced to the Company by G2. The amounts are non-interest bearing, unsecured, and due on demand.
Risk Factors
An investment in the securities of the Company is highly speculative and involves numerous and significant
risks. Such investment should be undertaken only by investors whose financial resources are sufficient to
enable them to assume these risks and who have no need for immediate liquidity in their investment.
Prospective investors should carefully consider the risk factors that have affected, and which in the future
are expected to affect the Company and its financial position.
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: credit risk, liquidity risk, market risk
(including interest rate, and commodity and equity price risk).
Risk management is conducted by the Company's management team with guidance from the Audit
Committee under policies approved by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors also provides regular
guidance for overall risk management.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the financial risk of non-performance of a contracted counter party. The Company's credit risk
is primarily attributable to cash. The Company reduces its credit risk by maintaining its cash with reputable
financial institutions.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations associated with financial
liabilities as they come due. The Company monitors its liquidity position and budgets future expenditures,
in order to ensure that it will have sufficient capital to satisfy liabilities as they come due.
As at May 31, 2025, the Company had current liabilities of $30,477 and had cash of $221 to meet its current
obligations. The Company is dependent on funding from G2 and the successful completion of the
Arrangement to continue operations.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
For the Period from December 5, 2024 (Date of Incorporation) to May 31, 2025
Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates and
commodity and equity prices.
At the date of this MD&A, the Company had a cash balance of $221 and no interest-bearing debt and was
not exposed to interest rate risk.
Foreign Currency Risk
The Company does not have any significant assets in currency other than the functional currency of the
Company, nor does it have significant foreign currency denominated liabilities, therefore any changes in
foreign exchange rates will not give rise to significant gains or losses.
Current Global Financial Conditions and Trends
Securities of mining and mineral exploration companies have experienced substantial volatility in the past,
often based on factors unrelated to the financial performance or prospects of the companies involved.
These factors include macroeconomic developments globally, and market perceptions of the attractiveness
of particular industries. The price of the securities of companies is also significantly affected by short-term
changes in commodity prices, base and precious metal prices or other mineral prices, currency exchange
fluctuation and the political environment in the countries in which the Company does business.
There can be no assurance that additional funding will be available to the Company, which could adversely
impact on the Company's ability to execute its business plan.
Emerging external political risks including trade disputes with the United States, China, and other parties
yet to be determined could represent a material threat to Canada's economy. Retaliatory trade restrictions
and/or import tariffs have historically resulted in adverse inflationary environments and are expected to do
so again. Management, in conjunction with the Board of Directors, will continue to monitor these
developments and their effect on the Company's business.
Inflation serves to increase operational and compliance costs. While the Company works to counteract
rising costs wherever possible, there is no certainty it will be successful in doing so. Despite its best efforts,
inflationary pressure is expected to introduce an additional financial burden upon the Company.
Dependence on Key Employees
The Company's business and operations are dependent on retaining the services of a small number of key
employees. The success of the Company is, and will continue to be, to a significant extent, dependent on
the expertise and experience of these employees. The loss of one or more of these employees could have
a materially adverse effect on the Company. The Company does not maintain insurance on any of its key
employees.
Future Accounting Pronouncements
There are no relevant changes in accounting standards applicable to future periods other than as disclosed
in the Company's accompanying financial statements for the period from December 5, 2024 (date of
incorporation) to May 31, 2025.
Certain pronouncements have been issued by the IASB that are mandatory for accounting periods after
May 31, 2025. Management is still evaluating and does not expect any such pronouncements to have a
significant impact on the Company's financial statements upon adoption.

IFRS 18 - Presentation and disclosure in financial statements
In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, focusing on presentation and disclosure in financial statements.
Key changes would impact the structure of the statement of loss and comprehensive loss and amendments
to disclosure requirements for certain profit or loss performance measures. IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1,
effective reporting period beginning on January 1, 2027. This will also impact comparative information at
the point of adoption. An assessment of the impact of the new standard will be performed on the financial
statements to which the pronouncement applies.
Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instrument consists of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and due to
related party. The Company's financial risk exposure and the impact of the Company's financial instruments
are summarized below:
Fair Value
The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments is equal to their carrying value due to their short-
term nature.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and
expenses during the reporting period. Areas requiring significant estimates and judgments by management
include, but are not limited to:
dot Going concern - The assessment of whether the going concern assumption is appropriate requires
management to take into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but
not limited to twelve months from the end of the reporting period.
Disclosure of Outstanding Share Data
As of the date of this MD&A, the Company has 1 outstanding common share.

Interim Management's Discussion and Analysis Quarterly Highlights
For the Three Months Ended August 31, 2025
Description of the Business
G3 was incorporated on December 5, 2024, under the laws of the Province of Ontario, and is a wholly owned
subsidiary of G2 Goldfields Inc. ("G2"). The Company's head office is located at 141 Adelaide Street West,
Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5H 3L5. The Company was incorporated for the sole purpose of participating
in a proposed spin-out announced by G2 on December 12, 2024, which was terminated by G2 in June 2025
(the "Prior Spin-Out"). On October 15, 2025, G2 announced the entering into of an arrangement agreement
with the Company, pursuant to which G2 will spin-out its interests in certain non-core assets in Guyana to
the Company pursuant to a plan of arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the
"Arrangement"). The Company has not continued any active business other than in connection with the
Prior Spin-Out and the Arrangement. The Arrangement is expected to be completed before the end of 2025.
Pursuant to the Arrangement, G2, among other things, is expected to transfer its interest in certain non-
core assets in Guyana and a sufficient amount of cash to G3 (such amount to be determined by G2 at the
relevant time) to satisfy G3's working capital and initial listing requirements (which G2 anticipates to be
approximately $15 million), and spin out all of the common shares of G3 to G2's shareholders on a pro rata
basis such that each G2 shareholder receives one G3 share for every two G2 shares held.
G3 expects to apply to list its common shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE"). Any listing
will be subject to the approval of the CSE.
Further information about the Company and its operations can be obtained from the office of G2 and from

The unaudited pro forma financial statements of G3 have been compiled from and include:
dot An unaudited pro forma statement of financial position, which combines the unaudited statement

dot An unaudited pro forma statement of income and comprehensive income for the three months
ended August 31, 2025, which combines the unaudited statement of loss and comprehensive loss

statement of income (loss) and comprehensive (loss) income of G2's interests in the Non-Core

incorporation) to May 31, 2025 and the audited combined carve-out statement of income (loss)
and comprehensive (loss) income of G2's interests in the Non-Core Assets in the Cuyuni and Purini
Districts for the year ended May 31, 2025, giving effect to the Arrangement as if it had occurred

Independent Auditor's Report
To the Board of G2 Goldfields Inc. (the "Company"):
Opinion
We have audited the combined carve-out financial statements of the Company's non-core assets in the Cuyuni and
Purini Districts (the "Carve-out Assets"), which comprise the combined carve-out statements of financial position as at
May 31, 2025 and May 31, 2024, and the combined carve-out statements of net (loss) income and comprehensive
(loss) income, changes in net investment and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the combined
carve-out financial statements, including material accounting policy information.
In our opinion, the accompanying combined carve-out financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
combined carve-out financial position of the Carve-out Assets as at May 31, 2025 and May 31, 2024, and its combined
carve-out financial performance and its combined carve-out cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with
IFRStrademark Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities
under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Combined
Carve-Out Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the
ethical requirements that are relevant to our audits of the combined carve-out financial statements in Canada, and
we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit
evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Emphasis of Matter - Basis of Accounting
We draw attention to Note 2 to the combined carve-out financial statements which describe the fact that the
Carve-out Assets has not operated as a separate entity. These combined carve-out financial statements are,
therefore, not necessarily indicative of results that would have occurred if the Carve-out Assets had been a separate
stand-alone entity during the years presented or of the future results of the Carve-out Assets. Our opinion is not
modified in respect of this matter.
Other Matter
The comparative information as at August 31, 2025 and for the three months ended August 31, 2025 and August 31,
2024 is unaudited.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Combined Carve-Out Financial
Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the combined carve-out financial statements
in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and for
such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of combined carve-out
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the combined carve-out financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Carve-out
Assets' ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using
the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Carve-out Assets or to
cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Combined Carve-Out Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the combined carve-out financial statements as a
whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that
includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit
conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or
in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis
of these combined carve-out financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional
judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the combined carve-out financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain
audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a
material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve
collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of
the Company's internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by management.
Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based
on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that
may cast significant doubt on the Carve-out Assets' ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude
that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related
disclosures in the combined carve-out financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify
our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's
report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Carve-out Assets to cease to continue as a going
concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the combined carve-out financial statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the combined carve-out financial statements represent the underlying
transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and
timing of the audits and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we
identify during our audits.

1. Business activities
On October 15, 2025, G2 Goldfields Inc. ("G2" or the "Company") entered into an arrangement agreement (the
"Arrangement Agreement") to undertake a reorganization transaction (the "Proposed Spin-Out") whereby it would spin-
out its interests in the non-core assets in the Cuyuni and Purini district (the "Carve-Out Assets") into a wholly owned
subsidiary, G3 Goldfields Inc. ("G3"). The Proposed Spin-Out will be completed by way of a plan of arrangement (the
"Arrangement") under the Canada Business Corporations Act pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Arrangement
Agreement. Pursuant to the Arrangement, each G2 shareholder will receive one G3 share for every two shares of G2
held as of the effective date of the Arrangement.
The Company's combined carve-out financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors of G2 on
October 23, 2025.
2. Basis of preparation
The combined carve-out financial statements reflect the exploration and evaluation expenditures relating to the Carve-
Out Assets of G2.
The combined carve-out financial statements have been prepared from the records of G2 and include exploration and
evaluation expenditures associated with the Carve-Out Assets.
The results do not necessarily reflect what the results of operations, financial position, or cash flows that would have
been had the Carve-Out Assets been a separate entity.
The information reported in the combined carve-out financial statements are stated in accordance with IFRStrademark
Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS"). The functional currency is
Guyanese dollars and presentation currency is Canadian dollars.
Carve-out assumptions
(i) The combined carve-out financial statements include a portion of costs incurred by G2 with respect to the exploration
and evaluation activities of the Carve-Out Assets, allocated on the following basis:
a) 100% of all costs incurred by G2 with respect to the acquisition and exploration and evaluation activities of the
Carve-Out Assets are included in the combined carve-out financial statements.
b) Certain acquisition costs for certain Carve-Out Assets were allocated based on land size relative to the total land
size of exploration assets initially acquired by G2 in a purchase agreement is included in the combined carve-out
financial statements.
c) Certain exploration and evaluation expenditures that relate to multiple properties in G2 are allocated based on
exploration activity on the Carve-Out Assets relative to the total exploration activity by G2 which include other
mineral properties are included in the combined carve-out financial statements.
d) Exploration and evaluation expenditures not directly related to the Carve-Out Assets are not included in the
combined carve-out financial statements.
See note 3 for the accounting policy regarding the Exploration and Evaluation assets.

2. Basis of preparation (continued)
Carve-out assumptions (continued)
(ii) The combined carve-out financial statements include a portion of general and administrative expenditures from the
consolidated financial statements of G2 as it is assumed that in order to operate the Carve-Out Assets on a stand-alone
basis, general and administrative costs would be incurred as part of the ongoing operations. General and administrative
costs were allocated from G2 on the following basis:
a) General and administrative expenditures incurred in G2 related to operating the Carve-Out Assets are included
in the combined carve-out financial statements, allocated based on exploration and evaluation spend in the
Carve-Out Assets relative to exploration and evaluation spend in the consolidated financial statements of G2 for
each respective period.
b) General and administrative expenditures not directly related to operating the Carve-Out Assets are not included
in the combined carve-out financial statements.
(iii) The combined carve-out financial statements include a portion of accounts payable incurred by G2 with respect to
the Carve-Out Assets, allocated on the following basis:
a) Accounts payable from G2 and Ontario Inc. (a subsidiary of G2) were allocated using the same assumptions noted
above for general and administrative expenditures are included in the combined carve-out financial statements.
b) Accounts payable from G2 Minerals (Guyana) Inc. ("G2 Guyana") (a subsidiary of G2) were allocated based on
exploration activity on the Carve-Out Assets relative to the total exploration activity by G2 which include other
mineral properties are included in the combined carve-out financial statements.
(iv) The combined carve-out financial statements include certain property and equipment migrating with the Carve-Out
Assets as part of the Proposed Spin-Out.
(v) 100% of revenue is included in the combined carve-out financial statements as the source of the revenue originates
from the Carve-Out Assets.
Use of estimates and judgment
The preparation of combined carve-out financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make
assessments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the combined carve-out financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue
and expenses during the reporting period. Areas requiring significant estimates and judgments by management include,
but are not limited to
Mining interests - The Company capitalizes the exploration and evaluation expenditures in the statement of financial
position. Where an indicator of impairment exists, management will perform an impairment test and if the
recoverable amount is less than the carrying value, record an impairment charge.
Carve-out assumptions - Management has used judgment when allocating certain exploration and evaluation
expenditures and general and administrative costs from the consolidated financial statements of G2 (see above).

3. Material accounting policies information
Overall considerations
The material accounting policies that have been applied in the preparation of these combined carve-out financial
statements are summarized below. These accounting policies have been used throughout all periods presented in the
combined carve-out financial statements.
(a) Property and equipment
On the initial recognition, property and equipment are valued at cost, being the purchase price and directly attributable
costs of acquisition. Property and equipment are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation, less
any accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on disposal of an item are determined by comparing the
proceeds from disposal with the carrying cost amount and are recognized on the consolidated statement of loss and
comprehensive loss.
Depreciation is recognized in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss over their estimated useful
lives. Depreciation for property and equipment used for exploration and evaluation are capitalized to exploration and
evaluation assets. Machinery and equipment is depreciated at a 20% declining balance rate. Motor vehicles are
depreciated at a 20% declining balance rate.
(b) Exploration and evaluation assets
Exploration and evaluation assets include mining interests
Exploration and evaluation costs, including the cost of acquiring licenses, are capitalized as exploration and evaluation
assets on a project-by-project basis pending determination of the technical feasibility and the commercial viability of the
project. The capitalized costs are presented as either tangible or intangible exploration and evaluation assets according
to the nature of the assets acquired. Capitalized costs include costs directly related to exploration and evaluation
activities in the area of interest. General and administrative costs are only allocated to the asset to the extent that those
costs can be directly related to operational activities in the relevant area of interest. When a license is relinquished or a
project is abandoned, the related costs are recognized in net loss immediately.
Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment if (i) sufficient data exists to determine technical
feasibility and commercial viability, and (ii) fact and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds the
recoverable amount (see Impairment).
The technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource is considered to be determinable when
proven reserves are determined to exist, the rights of tenure are current and it is considered probable that the costs will
be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area, or alternatively by sale of the property. Upon
determination of proven reserves, intangible exploration and evaluation assets attributable to those reserves are first
tested for impairment and then reclassified from exploration and evaluation assets to a separate category within
tangible assets. Expenditures deemed to be unsuccessful are recognized in net loss immediately. The Company
capitalizes all costs to defend title of its mining interests.

3. Material accounting policies information (continued)
(b) Exploration and evaluation assets (continued)
Pre-exploration and evaluation expenditures
Exploration and evaluation costs incurred prior to acquiring the right to explore mining interests are expensed as
exploration and evaluation assets on a project-by-project basis. If the costs incurred cannot be directly attributed to a
project that is going to be pursued beyond the pre- exploration and evaluation stage, they are expensed.
(c) Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) that has arisen as a result
of a past event and it is probable that a future outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, provided that
a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using
a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risk specific to the
obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognized as interest expense.
Decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities are estimated based on the Company's interpretation of current
regulatory requirements, constructive obligations and are measured at fair value. Fair value is determined based on the
net present value of estimated future cash expenditures for the settlement of decommissioning, restoration or similar
liabilities that may occur upon decommissioning of the mine. Such estimates are subject to change based on changes
in laws and regulations and negotiations with regulatory authorities.
(d) Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the financial instrument.
Below is a summary showing the classification and measurement bases of the Company's financial instruments.
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities Classification
Amortized cost
Financial assets
Financial assets are classified as either financial assets at FVTPL, amortized cost, or FVTOCI. The Company
determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
Financial assets recorded at FVTPL
Financial assets are classified as FVTPL if they do not meet the criteria of amortized cost or FVTOCI. Gains or losses
on these items are recognized in profit or loss.

3. Material accounting policies information (continued)
(d) Financial instruments (continued)
Investments recorded at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Company may irrevocably elect to measure
the investment at FVOCI whereby changes in the investment's fair value (realized and unrealized) will be recognized
permanently in OCI with no reclassification to profit or loss. The election is made on an investment-by-investment basis.
Amortized cost
Financial assets are classified as measured at amortized cost if both of the following criteria are met and the financial
assets are not designated as at FVTPL: 1) the object of the Company's business model for these financial assets is to
collect their contractual cash flows, and 2) the asset's contractual cash flows represent "solely payments of principal
and interest".
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at FVTPL or at amortized cost. The Company determines
the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition.
Financial liabilities at amortized cost
Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortized cost unless they fall into one of the following categories:
financial liabilities at FVTPL, financial liabilities that arise when a transfer of a financial asset does not qualify for
derecognition, financial guarantee contracts, commitments to provide a loan at a below-market interest rate, or
contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination.
Financial liabilities recorded FVTPL
Financial liabilities are classified as FVTPL if they fall into one of the five exemptions detailed above.
Transaction costs
Transaction costs associated with financial instruments, carried at FVTPL, are expensed as incurred, while transaction
costs associated with all other financial instruments are included in the initial carrying amount of the asset or the liability.
Subsequent measurement
Instruments classified as FVTPL are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized in profit or
loss. Instruments classified as amortized cost are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.
Instruments classified as FVTOCI are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized in other
comprehensive income.
Derecognition
The Company derecognizes financial liabilities only when its obligations under the financial liabilities are discharged,
cancelled, or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the
consideration paid and payable, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit
or loss.

3. Material accounting policies information (continued)
(d) Financial instruments (continued)
Financial instruments at fair value through profit and loss
Financial instruments recorded at fair value on the consolidated statements of financial position are classified using a
fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value
hierarchy has the following levels:
Level 1 - valuation based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - valuation techniques based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for
the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
Level 3 - valuation techniques using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data
(unobservable inputs).
(e) Impairment
The carrying amounts of the Company's non-financial assets, other than deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each
reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset's
recoverable amount is estimated.
For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates
cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets
(the "cash-generating unit").
An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of a cash-generating unit exceeds its estimated recoverable
amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value
less costs of disposal. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value
using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessment of the time value of money and the risks specific
to the assets. Impairment losses are recognized in net loss.
Impairment losses recognized in prior years are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has
decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to
determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount
does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, if no impairment loss had
been recognized.

3. Material accounting policies information (continued)
(f) Royalties
The Company earns royalties from small scale miners in Guyana. Small scale miners extract gold from the Company's
exploration interests and pay a royalty to the Company, which is in the form of physical gold. The Company will then
deposit the royalty with the Guyana Gold Board. Royalties earned by the Company are also subject to a net smelter
return ("NSR"), payable to the original property owners. Revenue received by the Guyana Gold Board is recognized net
of the NSR, once the Company has deposited the royalty with the Guyana Gold Board and there is a reasonable
expectation of collection.
Under IFRS 15, revenue is recognized at an amount that reflects the expected consideration receivable in exchange for
transferring goods or services to a customer, applying the following five steps:
1. Identify the contract with a customer
2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract
3. Determine the transaction price
4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
5. Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation
(g) Foreign currency translation
The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries for which the functional currency is not the Canadian dollar are
translated into Canadian dollars using the exchange rate in effect at the end of the reporting period for assets and
liabilities and the average exchange rates for the period for revenue, expenses and cash flows. Foreign exchange
differences arising on translation are recognized in foreign currency translation.
(h) New and revised IFRSs not yet effective
Certain pronouncements have been issued by the IASB that are mandatory for accounting periods after May 31, 2025.
Management is still evaluating and does not expect any such pronouncements to have a significant impact on the
Company's consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
IFRS 18 - Presentation and disclosure in financial statements
In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, focusing on presentation and disclosure in financial statements. Key changes
would impact the structure of the statement of loss and comprehensive loss and amendments to disclosure
requirements for certain profit or loss performance measures. IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1, effective reporting period
beginning on January 1, 2027. This will also impact comparative information at the point of adoption.
An assessment of the applicability of the new standard will be performed on the financial statements to which the
pronouncement applies.

payments are not made, subject to a 30-day cure period, and by the option holder on 30 days' prior written notice. The
option agreement will also be terminated to the extent the option has not been exercised within six years of the effective
date. In addition, the option agreement provides that, until February 9, 2026, the parties will use their best efforts to
negotiate the terms of an option agreement in respect of another group of mining permits and that, until June 9, 2026,

Resolution in accordance with section 190 of the CBCA (except as the procedures of that section

but in no case shall G2, G3 or any other person be required to recognize such G2 Shareholders
as holders of G2 Shares at or after the date upon which the Arrangement becomes effective and

SCHEDULE M
G3 GOLDFIELDS INC. STOCK OPTION PLAN
1. Purpose
The purpose of this stock option plan (the "Plan") is to promote the profitability and growth of G3
Goldfields Inc. (the "Company") by facilitating the efforts of the Company and its subsidiaries to obtain
and retain key individuals. The Plan provides an incentive for and encourages ownership of common
shares of the Company ("G3 Shares") by its key individuals so that they may increase their stake in the
Company and benefit from increases in the value of the G3 Shares.
2. Administration
The Plan is administered by the board of directors (the "Board") or its designee committee of directors of
the Board (the "Committee"), which has full authority with respect to the granting of all Options (as defined
below) thereunder, subject to the requirements of the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE") or other
applicable stock exchange. If the Committee is designated to administer the Plan, all references to the
"Board" herein, other than in Section 12, the definition of "Market Value" in Section 15, and in Section 17,
will be deemed references to the Committee. Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Board from
adopting other or additional Share Compensation Arrangements (as defined below) or other compensation
arrangements, subject to any required approval.
For purposes of the Plan, "Share Compensation Arrangement" means a stock option, stock option plan,
employee stock purchase plan, long-term incentive plan or any other compensation or incentive mechanism
involving the issuance or potential issuance of G3 Shares to one or more full-time Employees (as defined
below), directors, officers, insiders, or Consultants of the Company or its subsidiary, including a share
purchase from treasury by a full-time Employee, director, officer, insider, or Consultant which is financially
assisted by the Company or its subsidiary by way of a loan, guarantee or otherwise; provided, however,
that any such arrangements that do not involve the issuance from treasury or potential issuance from
treasury of G3 Shares are not "Share Compensation Arrangements" for the purposes of this Plan.
3. Shares Subject to Plan
Subject to adjustment under the provisions of Section 11, the aggregate number of G3 Shares that may be
issued and sold under the Plan will not exceed 10% of the aggregate number of G3 Shares issued and
outstanding as measured as at the date of any Option grant from time to time.
The Company shall not, upon the exercise of any Option, be required to issue or deliver any G3 Shares
prior to (a) the admission of such G3 Shares to listing on the CSE or such other stock exchange on which
the G3 Shares may then be listed, and (b) the completion of such registration or other qualification of such
G3 Shares under any law, rules or regulation as the Board shall determine to be necessary or advisable. If
any G3 Shares cannot be issued to any optionee for any reason, the obligation of the Company to issue such
G3 Shares shall terminate and the Exercise Price (as defined below) therefor paid to the Company shall be
returned to the optionee. G3 Shares subject to but not issued or delivered under an option (each, an
"Option") which expires or terminates shall again be available for issuance under the Plan.
4. Eligibility
Options shall be granted only to Eligible Persons, any registered savings plan established by an Eligible
Person, or any company wholly-owned by an Eligible Person. The term "Eligible Person" means:
M-1
(a) a senior officer or director of the Company or any of its subsidiaries;

(ii) who works full-time for the Company or any of its subsidiaries providing services
normally provided by an employee and who is subject to the same control and

whom income tax deductions are not made at source; or

and regular basis for a minimum amount of time per week providing services
normally provided by an employee and who is subject to the same control and

whom income tax deductions are not made at source,
(any such individual, an "Employee");
(c) an individual employed by a company, incorporated association or organization, body
corporate, partnership, trust, association or other entity other than an individual (a
"Corporation") or an individual (together with a Corporation, a "Person") providing

shareholder or partner), other than an Employee, Management Company Employee,

Relations Consultant"); and

behalf of the Company or a shareholder of the Company, that promote or reasonably could be expected to
promote the purchase or sale of securities of the Company, but does not include:
(a) the dissemination of information provided, or records prepared, in the ordinary course of

(Ontario) from time to time.

Person and the Company to confirm that such Person is a bona fide Eligible Person for the purposes of
participation under the Plan.
Subject to the foregoing, the Board shall have full and final authority to determine the Eligible Persons who
are to be granted Options under the Plan and the number of G3 Shares subject to each Option.
M-3
5. Limits under the Plan
The following limits apply to the G3 Shares issued or issuable under any Options granted under the Plan
(and the Previous Plan), subject to the requirements of the CSE or other applicable stock exchange:
(a) The maximum number of G3 Shares issuable to any one optionee upon the exercise of
Options in any 12-month period, when aggregated with any G3 Shares reserved for
issuance under Existing Options and other Share Compensation Arrangements, shall not
exceed 5% of the number of G3 Shares then issued and outstanding, unless disinterested
shareholder approval is received therefor in accordance with the policies of the CSE or
other applicable stock exchange.
(b) The maximum number of G3 Shares issuable pursuant to Options granted under the Plan
to any one Consultant within any 12-month period, when aggregated with any G3 Shares
reserved for issuance under Existing Options and other Share Compensation
Arrangements, shall not exceed 2% of the number of G3 Shares issued and outstanding as
of the date of grant.
(c) The maximum number of G3 Shares issuable pursuant to Options granted under the Plan
in any 12-month period to all Persons engaged to provide Investor Relations Activities, in
the aggregate, shall not exceed 2% of the number of G3 Shares issued and outstanding as
of the date of grant.
6. Exercise Price
The exercise price (the "Exercise Price") for the G3 Shares issuable for each Option shall be determined
by the Board on the basis of the market price, where "market price" shall mean the prior trading day closing
price of the G3 Shares on any stock exchange on which the G3 Shares are listed or the last trading price on
the prior trading day on any dealing network where the G3 Shares trade, and where there is no such closing
price or trade on the prior trading day, "market price" shall mean the average of the daily high and low
board lot trading prices of the G3 Shares on any stock exchange on which the shares are listed or dealing
network on which the G3 Shares trade for the five immediately preceding trading days. In the event the G3
Shares are listed on a stock exchange, the Exercise Price may be the market price less any discounts from
the market price allowed by the applicable stock exchange, subject to a minimum price of $0.10. In the
event the G3 Shares are not listed on any exchange and do not trade on any dealing network, the market
price will be determined by the Board. The approval of disinterested shareholders will be required for any
reduction in the Exercise Price of an Option that was previously granted to an insider of the Company.
7. Period of Option and Rights to Exercise
Subject to the provisions of this Section 7 and Sections 8, 9, and 16 below, Options will be exercisable in
whole or in part, and from time to time, during the currency thereof. Options shall not be granted for a term
exceeding 10 years (subject to extension where the expiry date falls within a Black-Out Period (as defined
below)). The G3 Shares to be purchased upon the exercise of any Option (the "Optioned Shares") shall be
paid for in full at the time of such exercise. Except as provided in Sections 8, 9, and 16 below, no Option
may be exercised unless the optionee is then an Eligible Person. The approval of disinterested shareholders
will be required for any extension of the term of an Option that was previously granted to an insider of the
Company.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the expiry date for an Option falls within a period of
time when, pursuant to any policies of the Company (including the Company's insider trading policy), any
M-4
securities of the Company may not be traded by certain Persons designated by the Company (such period,
a "Black-Out Period"), the expiry date of such Option will be automatically extended to the 10th business
day following the expiry of such Black-Out Period, and such 10th business day will be considered the
expiration date for such Option for all purposes under the Plan.
8. Cessation of Provision of Services
Subject to Section 9 below, if any optionee ceases to be an Eligible Person of the Company for any reason
(whether or not for cause) the optionee may, but only within the period of 90 days, or 30 days if the Eligible
Person is an Investor Relations Person, next succeeding such cessation (unless either such ninety or 30-day
period is extended by the Board, up to a maximum of 12 months from the date of such cessation), and in
no event after the expiry date of the Option, exercise the Option. The Company shall be under no obligation
to give an optionee notice of termination of an Option.
9. Death of Optionee
In the event of an optionee's death during the currency of the optionee's Option, the Option shall be
exercisable within the 12-month period next succeeding the optionee's death and in no event after the expiry
date of the Option.
10. Non-Assignability and Non-Transferability of Option
An Option granted under the Plan shall be non-assignable and non-transferrable by an optionee otherwise
than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and such Option shall be exercisable, during an
optionee's lifetime, only by the optionee.
11. Adjustments in Shares Subject to Plan
The aggregate number and kind of shares available under the Plan shall be appropriately adjusted in the
event of a reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares, merger,
consolidation, rights offering or any other change in the corporate structure or shares of the Company. The
Options granted under the Plan may contain such provisions as the Board may determine with respect to
adjustments to be made in the number and kind of shares covered by such Options and in the Exercise Price
in the event of any such change.
12. Amendment and Termination of Plan
Subject in all cases to the approval of all stock exchanges and regulatory authorities having jurisdiction
over the affairs of the Company, the Board may from time to time amend or revise the terms of the Plan (or
any Option granted thereunder) or may terminate the Plan (or any Option granted thereunder) at any time,
provided however, that no such action shall, without the consent of the optionee, in any manner adversely
affect an optionee's rights under any Option theretofore granted under, or governed by, the Plan.
To the extent required by applicable law or by the policies of the stock exchange on which the G3 Shares
trade (if applicable) at the relevant time, shareholder approval (as required by such policies) and approval
of such stock exchange, as applicable, will be required for the following types of amendments:
(a) persons eligible to be granted or issued Options under the Plan;
(b) the maximum number or percentage, as the case may be, of G3 Shares that may be issuable
under the Plan;
M-5
(c) the limits under the Plan on the number of Options that may be granted or issued to any
one Person or any category of Persons;
(d) the method for determining the Exercise Price;
(e) the maximum term of any Options;
(f) the expiry and termination provisions applicable to any Options; and
(g) any method or formula for calculating prices, values or amounts under the Plan that may
result in a benefit to an optionee.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following types of amendments do not require shareholder approval:
(a) amendments to fix typographical errors; and
(b) amendments to clarify existing provisions of the Plan that do not have the effect of altering
the scope, nature and intent of such provisions.
For greater certainty, disinterested shareholder approval will be required to be obtained for any amendment
to Options held by insiders which results in a benefit to such insider, including, for certainty, a reduction in
the Exercise Price or an extension to the term if the optionee is an insider of the Company at the time of the
proposed amendment.
13. Effective Date of the Plan
The Plan becomes effective on the date of its approval by the Company's shareholders.
14. Evidence of Options
Each Option granted under the Plan shall be evidenced in a written option agreement between the Company
and the optionee which shall give effect to the provisions of the Plan.
15. Exercise of Option and Payment of Exercise Price
(a) Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the particular Option, an Option may be exercised
from time to time by delivering to the Company at its registered office a written notice of
exercise specifying the number of G3 Shares with respect to which the Option is being
exercised and accompanied by payment in cash or certified cheque for the full amount of
the Exercise Price of the G3 Shares then being purchased.
(b) Upon the exercise of an Option, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to issue and
countersign share certificates for the Optioned Shares in the name of such optionee or the
optionee's legal personal representative or as may be directed in writing by the optionee's
legal personal representative.
(c) Subject to the rules and policies of the CSE or other applicable stock exchange, and
provided the optionee is not an Investor Relations Person or Investor Relations Consultant,
the Board may, in its discretion and at any time, determine to grant an optionee the
alternative to deal with such Option on a "cashless exercise" basis, on such terms as the
Board may determine in its discretion (the "Cashless Exercise Right"). Without limitation,
the Board may determine in its discretion that such Cashless Exercise Right, if any, grants
M-6
an optionee the right to terminate such Option in whole or in part by notice in writing to
the Company and in lieu of receiving G3 Shares pursuant to the exercise of the Option,
receive, without payment of any cash other than pursuant to Section 19:
(i) that number of G3 Shares, disregarding fractions, which when multiplied by the
Market Value (as defined below) on the day immediately prior to the exercise of
the Cashless Exercise Right, have a total value equal to the product of that number
of G3 Shares subject to the Option multiplied by the difference between the Market
Value on the day immediately prior to the exercise of the Cashless Exercise Right
and the Exercise Price; or
(ii) a cash payment equal to the difference between the Market Value on the day
immediately prior to the date of the exercise of the Cashless Exercise Right, and
the Exercise Price, less applicable withholding taxes as determined and calculated
by the Company, excluding fractions.
(d) In the event the Company determines to accept an optionee's request pursuant to a Cashless
Exercise Right, the Company shall make an election pursuant to subsection 110(1.1) of the
Tax Act.
(e) The term "Market Value" means, at any date when the market value of G3 Shares is to be
determined: (i) if the G3 Shares are listed on a stock exchange, the volume weighted
average trading price of the G3 Shares on such stock exchange for the five trading days
immediately preceding the relevant time as it relates to a grant of an Option; or (ii) if the
G3 Shares are not listed on any stock exchange, the value as is determined solely by the
Board, acting reasonably and in good faith and such determination shall be conclusive and
binding on all Persons.

17. Notice of Sale of All or Substantially All Shares or Assets
If at any time when an Option granted under this Plan remains unexercised with respect to any Optioned
Shares and:
(a) the Company seeks approval from its shareholders for a transaction which, if completed,
would constitute an Acceleration Event (as defined below); or
(b) a third party makes a bona fide formal offer or proposal to the Company or its shareholders

to Section 11 hereof, (i) the Board may permit the optionee to exercise the Option, as to all or any
of the Optioned Shares in respect of which such Option has not previously been exercised
(regardless of any vesting restrictions) during the period specified in the notice (but in no event

offer or proposal; and (ii) the Board may require the acceleration of the time for the exercise of the
said Option and of the time for the fulfilment of any conditions or restrictions on such exercise.
For the purposes of this Section 17, an "Acceleration Event" means, unless the Board determines
otherwise, the happening, in a single transaction or in a series of related transactions, of any of the following
events:

any Person or group of Persons acting jointly or in concert acquires for the first time the
direct or indirect beneficial ownership of securities of the Company representing 50% or
more of the aggregate voting power of all of the Company's then issued and outstanding
securities entitled to vote in the election of directors of the Company, other than any such
acquisition that occurs upon the exercise or settlement of Options or other securities
granted by the Company under any Share Compensation Arrangements;
(b) there is consummated an arrangement, amalgamation, merger, consolidation or similar
transaction involving (directly or indirectly) the Company and, immediately after the
consummation of such arrangement, amalgamation, merger, consolidation or similar

50% of the combined outstanding voting power of the surviving or resulting entity in such
amalgamation, merger, consolidation or similar transaction, or (B) more than 50% of the
combined outstanding voting power of the parent of the surviving or resulting entity in
such arrangement, amalgamation merger, consolidation or similar transaction, in each case
in substantially the same proportions as their beneficial ownership of the outstanding
voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such transaction;
(c) the sale, lease, exchange, license or other disposition, in a single transaction or a series of
related transactions, of assets, rights or properties of the Company or any of its subsidiaries
which have an aggregate book value greater than 50% of the book value of the assets, rights
and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis to any other
Person, other than a disposition to a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company in the course
of a reorganization of the assets of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries;
(d) the passing of a resolution by the Board or shareholders of the Company to substantially
liquidate the assets of the Company or wind up the Company's business or significantly
rearrange its affairs in one or more transactions or series of transactions or the

(except where such re-arrangement is part of a bona fide reorganization of the Company in
circumstances where the business of the Company is continued and the shareholdings
remain substantially the same following the re-arrangement);
(e) individuals who, on the effective date of the Plan, are members of the Board (the
"Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the members
of the Board; provided, however, that if the appointment or election (or nomination for
election) of any new Board member was approved or recommended by a majority vote of
the members of the Incumbent Board then still in office, such new member will, for
purposes of this Plan, be considered as a member of the Incumbent Board; or
M-8
(f) the Board adopts a resolution to the effect that an Acceleration Event as defined herein has
occurred or is imminent.
18. Rights Prior to Exercise
An optionee shall have no rights whatsoever as a shareholder in respect of any of the Optioned Shares
(including any right to receive dividends or other distributions therefrom or thereon) other than in respect
of Optioned Shares in respect of which the optionee shall have exercised the Option to purchase hereunder
and which the optionee shall have actually taken up and paid for.
19. Taxes
The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require an optionee to remit to
the Company, the required amount to satisfy federal, provincial, and local taxes, domestic or foreign,
required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of the Plan,
including the grant or exercise of any Option granted under the Plan. With respect to any required
withholding, the Company shall have the irrevocable right to, and the optionee consents to, the Company
setting off any amounts required to be withheld, in whole or in part, against amounts otherwise owing by
the Company to the optionee (whether arising pursuant to the optionee's relationship as a director, officer,
Employee or Consultant of the Company or otherwise), or may make such other arrangements that are
satisfactory to the Optionee and the Company. In addition, the Company may elect, in its sole discretion,
to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by withholding such number of G3 Shares
issuable upon exercise of the Options as it determines are required to be sold by the Company, as trustee,
to satisfy any withholding obligations net of selling costs. The optionee consents to such sale and grants to
the Company an irrevocable power of attorney to effect the sale of such G3 Shares issuable upon exercise
of the Options and acknowledges and agrees that the Company does not accept responsibility for the price
obtained on the sale of such G3 Shares issuable upon exercise of the Options.
20. Governing Law
The Plan shall be construed in accordance with, and be governed by, the laws of the Province of Ontario
and the laws of Canada applicable therein, and shall be in accordance with all applicable securities laws.
21. Expiry of Option
On the expiry date of any Option granted under the Plan, and subject to any extension of such expiry date
permitted in accordance with the Plan, such Option hereby granted shall forthwith expire and terminate and
be of no further force or effect whatsoever as to such of the optioned shares in respect of which the Option
has not been exercised.

their absolute discretion, consider necessary for the implementation of this Plan and of the rules and
regulations established for administering this Plan. All costs incurred in connection with this Plan shall be

2.4 Participant Determination

Committee shall from time to time, and subject to any applicable blackout period, determine the Participants

ARTICLE III
RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT AWARDS
3.1 General
This Plan is hereby established for the Employees, Directors and Officers of the Company and any of its
Subsidiaries and Affiliates, and for individuals retained as Consultants to the Company or Management
Company Employees, as may be determined by the Committee.
3.2 Restricted Share Unit Awards
A Restricted Share Unit Award and any applicable vesting conditions may be made for a particular
Participant as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Committee with the agreement of the
Participant and must be confirmed by a Grant Agreement signed by the Company and the Participant. The
number of Restricted Share Units awarded by the Committee will be determined and will be credited to the
Participant's account, effective as of the Grant Date. The Restricted Share Units will be settled by way of
the issuance of Shares from treasury as soon as practicable following the Maturity Date or, if applicable, a
Deferred Payment Date selected by a Qualifying Participant, or as otherwise may be determined by the
Committee, unless otherwise provided under this Plan.
For the avoidance of doubt, a Participant will have no right or entitlement whatsoever to receive any Shares
until the Maturity Date or, if applicable, a Deferred Payment Date.
3.3 Deferred Payment Date
A Qualifying Participant may elect to defer to receive all or any part of their Shares following the Maturity
Date until a Deferred Payment Date.
Qualifying Participants who elect to set a Deferred Payment Date must give the Company written notice of
the Deferred Payment Date not later than fifteen (15) days prior to the Maturity Date or any subsequent
Deferred Payment Date unless otherwise agreed to by the Committee. For certainty, Qualifying Participants
shall not be permitted to give any such notice after the day which is fifteen (15) days prior to the Maturity
Date or any subsequent Deferred Payment Date unless otherwise agreed to by the Committee. Qualifying
Participants may continue to defer settlement of their Restricted Share Units and receipt of any Shares
provided a written notice of a Deferred Payment Date is given to the Company in accordance with the
foregoing terms unless earlier settlement of such Restricted Share Units is otherwise provided for under
this Plan.
N-6
In the event of the Retirement, Resignation, Termination with Cause or Termination Without Cause of the
Qualifying Participant or a Change of Control following the Maturity Date and prior to a Deferred Payment
Date, the Qualifying Participant shall be entitled to receive and the Company shall issue forthwith the
applicable Shares in settlement of the Restricted Share Units then held by the Qualifying Participant that
have vested.
3.4 Dividends
In the event a cash dividend is paid to shareholders of the Company on the Shares while a Restricted Share
Unit is outstanding, each Participant will be credited with additional Restricted Share Units (subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 3.11 hereof). In such case, the number of additional Restricted Share Units
will be equal to the aggregate amount of dividends that would have been paid to the Participant if the
Restricted Share Units in the Participant's account on the record date had been Shares divided by the Market
Price of a Share on the date on which dividends were paid by the Company. If the foregoing shall result in
a fractional Restricted Share Unit, the fraction shall be disregarded.
The additional Restricted Share Units will vest and be settled on the Participant's Maturity Date or, if
applicable, a Deferred Payment Date of the particular Restricted Share Unit Award to which the additional
Restricted Share Units relate.
3.5 Change of Control
In the event of a Change of Control, all unvested Restricted Share Units outstanding shall automatically
and immediately vest on the date of such Change of Control. Upon a Change of Control, Participants shall
not be treated any more favourably than shareholders of the Company with respect to the consideration that
the Participants would be entitled to receive for their Shares.
3.6 Death or Disability of Participant
Subject to the Board determining otherwise, in the event of:
(a) the death of a Participant, any unvested Restricted Share Units held by such Participant
will automatically vest on the date of death of such Participant and the Shares underlying
all Restricted Share Units held by such Participant will be issued to the Participant's estate
as soon as reasonably practical thereafter; or
(b) the Disability of a Participant (as may be determined in accordance with the policies, if
any, or general practices of the Company or any Subsidiary), any unvested Restricted Share
Units held by such Participant will automatically vest on the date on which the Participant
is determined to be totally disabled and the Shares underlying the Restricted Share Units
held will be issued to the Participant as soon as reasonably practical thereafter,
however in no event shall the Maturity Date of any such Restricted Share Units be extended beyond the
date which is twelve months following the death of Disability of the Participant, as applicable.
3.7 Retirement
Subject to the Board determining otherwise, in the event of Retirement of a Participant, any unvested
Restricted Share Units held by such Participant will automatically vest on the date of Retirement and the
Shares underlying such Restricted Share Units will be issued to the Participant as soon as reasonably
N-7
practical thereafter, provided however in no event shall the Maturity Date of any such Restricted Share
Units be extended beyond the date which is twelve months following the Retirement of the Participant.
3.8 Termination Without Cause
Subject to the Board determining otherwise, in the event of Termination Without Cause of a Participant,
any unvested Restricted Share Units will vest in accordance with their normal vesting schedule, if any,
unless otherwise stipulated in the Participant's Grant Agreement, provided however in no event shall the
Maturity Date of any such Restricted Share Units be extended beyond the date which is twelve months
following the Termination Without Cause of the Participant.
For greater certainty, the date of Termination Without Cause shall mean the date the Participant ceases
providing services to the Company or an Affiliate, as determined by the Company, regardless of the reasons
therefore and, for greater clarity, such date shall be as specified in the notice of termination from the
Company or an Affiliate and shall not include or be deemed to include any period of notice of termination
to which the Participant may be entitled under contract, statute, common law or otherwise.
3.9 Termination With Cause or Resignation
In the event of Termination With Cause or the Resignation of a Participant, all of the Participant's Restricted
Share Units that have not yet vested shall become void and the Participant shall have no entitlement and
will forfeit any rights to any issuance of Shares under this Plan with respect to the unvested Restricted Share
Units, except as may otherwise be stipulated in the Participant's Grant Agreement or as may otherwise be
determined by the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion, provided however in no event shall the
Maturity Date of any such Restricted Share Units be extended beyond the date which is twelve months
following the Termination With Cause or the Resignation of the Participant, as applicable. Restricted Share
Units that have vested but that are subject to a Deferred Payment Date shall be issued forthwith following
the Termination with Cause or the Resignation of the Participant.
3.10 Restricted Share Unit Grant Agreement
Each grant of a Restricted Share Unit under this Plan shall be evidenced by a Grant Agreement. Such Grant
Agreement shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of this Plan and may include any other
terms and conditions which are not inconsistent with this Plan and which the Committee deems appropriate
for inclusion in a Grant Agreement. The provisions of Grant Agreement issued under this Plan need not be
identical.
3.11 Maximum Number of Shares
The maximum number of Shares available for issuance from treasury under this Plan shall be the lesser of
(i) 3,650,000 Shares; and (ii) such number of Shares, when combined with all other Shares subject to grants
made under the Company's other share compensation arrangements (pre-existing or otherwise, and
including the Company's stock option plan) (the "Other Share Compensation Arrangements"), as is
equal to 10% of the aggregate number of Shares issued and outstanding from time to time, in each case
subject to adjustments pursuant to Section 4.8. In the event that a Restricted Share Unit is cancelled or
terminated without issuance of the underlying Share, the underlying Share shall automatically be available
for the grant of another Restricted Share Unit under this Plan.
The grant of Restricted Share Units under the Plan is subject to a restriction such that (i) the number of
Restricted Share Units granted to Insiders of the Company within any one (1) year period, and (ii) the
number of Shares reserved for issuance under Restricted Share Units granted to Insiders of the Company at
N-8
any time, in each case under the Plan when combined with all of the Other Share Compensation
Arrangements, shall not exceed 10% of the Company's total issued and outstanding Shares, respectively.
For greater certainty, the number of Shares outstanding shall mean the number of Shares outstanding on a
non-diluted basis on the date immediately prior to the proposed Grant Date.
The total number of Restricted Share Units granted to any one individual under the Plan within any one
year period shall not exceed 5% of the total number of Shares issued and outstanding at the Grant Date.
The maximum number of Restricted Share Units which may be granted to any one Consultant within any
one year period must not exceed in the aggregate 2% of the Shares issued and outstanding as at the Grant
Date.
3.12 Settlement of Restricted Share Units
For greater certainty, notwithstanding any provision of this Plan the Company shall not have the right to
settle any Restricted Share Units for non-share consideration.
ARTICLE IV
GENERAL
4.1 Effectiveness
The Plan shall be effective only upon the approval of both the board of directors and the shareholders of
the Company by ordinary resolution. This Plan shall remain in effect until it is terminated by the Committee
or the Board.
4.2 Discontinuance of Plan
The Committee or the Board, as the case may be, may discontinue this Plan at any time in its sole discretion,
and without shareholder approval, provided that such discontinuance may not, without the consent of the
Participant, in any manner adversely affect the Participant's rights under any Restricted Share Unit granted
under this Plan. In the event this Plan is to be discontinued by the Committee or the Board, the balance of
outstanding Restricted Share Units shall be maintained until all outstanding Restricted Share Units have
either been forfeited or settled as otherwise provided for under this Plan.
4.3 Non-Transferability
Except by a will or by the laws of descent and distribution, no Restricted Share Unit and no other right or
interest of a Participant (excluding, for greater certainty, Shares previously issued to a Participant in
accordance with this Plan) is assignable or transferable.
4.4 Withholding Taxes, Etc
For certainty and notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Company or any Subsidiary or
Affiliate may take such steps as it considers necessary or appropriate for the deduction or withholding of
any income taxes or other amounts which the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate is required by any
law or regulation of any governmental authority whatsoever to deduct or withhold in connection with any
Share issued pursuant to the Plan, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a)
withholding of all or any portion of any amount otherwise owing to a Participant; (b) the suspension of the
issue of Shares to be issued under the Plan, until such time as the Participant has paid to the Company or
any Subsidiary or Affiliate an amount equal to any amount which the Company, Subsidiary or Affiliate is
required to deduct or withhold by law with respect to such taxes or other amounts; and/or (c) withholding
N-9
and causing to be sold, by it as agent on behalf of a Participant, such number of Shares as it determines to
be necessary to satisfy the withholding obligation. By participating in the Plan, the Participant consents to
such sale and authorizes the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, as applicable, to effect the sale of such
Shares on behalf of the Participant and to remit the appropriate amount to the applicable governmental
authorities. Neither the Company nor any applicable Subsidiary or Affiliate shall be responsible for
obtaining any particular price for the Shares nor shall the Company or any applicable Subsidiary or Affiliate
be required to issue any Shares under the Plan unless the Participant has made suitable arrangements with
the Company and any applicable Subsidiary or Affiliate to fund any withholding obligation.
4.5 Amendments to the Plan

purposes;
(c) remove or exceed the Insider participation limits;

the Company. In addition, any such amendment, modification or change of any provision of this Plan shall
be subject to the approval, if required, by any Stock Exchange having jurisdiction over the securities of the
Company.
4.6 Participant Rights
No holder of any Restricted Share Units shall have any rights as a shareholder of the Company. Except as
otherwise specified herein, no holder of any Restricted Share Units shall be entitled to receive, and no
adjustment is required to be made for, any dividends, distributions or any other rights declared for
shareholders of the Company.
N-10
4.7 No Right to Continued Employment or Service
Nothing in this Plan shall confer on any Participant the right to continue as an Employee or Officer of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, as the case may be, or interfere with the right of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, as applicable, to remove such Officer and/or Employee.

In the event there is any change in the Shares, whether by reason of a stock dividend, consolidation,

practicable following receipt of the Offer or resolution of the board of directors of the Company or
shareholders to otherwise proceed with a Change of Control, notify each Participant of the full particulars
of the Offer or proposed transaction that will result in the Change of Control. The Board will have the sole
discretion to amend, abridge or otherwise eliminate any vesting schedule related to each Participant's
Restricted Share Units so that notwithstanding the other terms of this Plan, the underlying Shares may be
issued to each Participant holding Restricted Share Units so as to permit the Participant to tender the Shares
received in connection with the Restricted Share Units pursuant to the Offer or otherwise in connection
with the proposed transaction that will result in the Change of Control.
4.10 Unfunded Status of Plan
This Plan shall be unfunded.
4.11 Compliance with Laws
If any provision of this Plan or any Restricted Share Unit contravenes any law or any order, policy, by-law
or regulation of any regulatory body having jurisdiction, then such provision shall be deemed to be amended
to the extent necessary to bring such provision into compliance therewith.
4.12 Governing Law
