EXPLOITS APPOINTS GUY BÉDARD TO BOARD

Exploits Discovery Corp. has appointed Guy Bedard to its board of directors, effective Dec. 10, 2025, as the company advances its refocused growth strategy in Quebec and Ontario.

"Guy brings exactly the kind of project development experience and Quebec insight we want at the board table," said Doug Cater, chair of the board. "As we pivot our efforts toward advancing our Quebec gold projects, including drilling at Fenton, his experience prioritizing and advancing projects with disciplined capital allocation will be a significant asset for Exploits and its shareholders."

Most recently he was the mine general manager at First Majestic Silver Corp. and previously served as underground mines director at Calibre Mining and general manager with Lundin Gold Inc. at the Fruta del Norte mine in Ecuador, following a period as principal of GB Consulting.

Mr. Bedard holds a BEng (mining) from Universite Laval and has completed senior leadership studies at the Rotman School of Management (University of Toronto). He brings deep expertise in technical execution, HSE stewardship and team leadership, with particular strength in Quebec and Latin America.
