10.3

(a) If a Change in Control occurs and, at any time during the twelve (12) month period following such Change

in Control, either (i) there occurs a termination of the Employee's employment by the Company, other than for Cause, or (ii) the

Employee resigns employment for Good Reason, contingent upon the Employee's execution and non-revocation of a mutual general release of

claims within twenty-one (21) days of termination in the form mutually agreed upon by the Parties, or such other time period agreed to

by the Parties, except for the Accrued Obligations which will be paid without regard to such release, the Employee shall be entitled to

receive:

(i) the Accrued Obligations together with any rights under the Company's employee benefit plans;

(ii) a lump sum cash payment, less applicable withholdings, equal to eighteen (18) months of Employee's annual

Base Salary plus one (1) additional month for each full year of service after the third (3rd) full year of service up

a maximum of twenty-four (24) months annual Base Salary together with 150% of the Short Term Bonus for the year in which termination of

employment occurs, payable on the forty-fifth (45th) day, or next succeeding business day if the 45th day is not

a business day, following Employee's separation from service; and

(iii) Employee's equity incentive awards shall be governed in accordance with the terms of the applicable Equity

Plans and award grant agreements.

(b) For purposes of this Section 10.3, "Good Reason" means any of the following events,

unless the Employee gives his/her express written consent thereto:

(i) a material adverse change in the Employee’s Position as in effect immediately prior to a Change

in Control. Such material adverse change shall mean a material diminution in the Employee’s duties or authority or the assignment

to the Employee of any duties or responsibilities which are materially inconsistent with such Position. Notwithstanding the foregoing,

Good Reason shall not be deemed to occur upon a change in the Employee’s duties or responsibilities that is solely a result of the

Company no longer being publicly traded;

(ii) a material reduction by the Company in the Employee’s annual Base Salary as in effect immediately

prior to a Change in Control;

(iii) a material failure by the Company to continue in effect any employee benefit program in which the Employee

is participating at the time of a Change in Control other than as a result of the normal expiration of any such employee benefit program

in accordance with its terms as in effect at the time of a Change in Control or replacement of such benefit program with a comparable

program, or the taking of any action, or the failure to act, by the Company which would materially and adversely affect the Employee’s

continued participation in any such employee benefit program on at least as favorable a basis to the Employee as on the date of a Change

in Control;

10

(iv) the Company requiring the Employee to be based in a location more than 50 miles from where the Employee

is based at the time of a Change in Control, except as expressly contemplated by this agreement for relocation to Phoenix, Arizona and

except for required travel on the Company’s business to an extent substantially consistent with the Employee’s business travel

obligations in the ordinary course of business immediately prior to the Change in Control;

(v) the Company repudiating or breaching any of its material obligations under this Agreement; or

(vi) the Company requiring the Employee to report to a person of lesser authority or standing than that set

forth in Section 1.1; provided that a general change in overall reporting structure bona fide entered into by the Company in the

interests of improved management of its business and not limited to the individual Employee, shall not be a change in reporting responsibilities

as contemplated by this clause.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to constitute Good Reason hereunder, the Employee must give notice to the

Company within 30 days following the Employee’s knowledge of an event constituting Good Reason describing the alleged failure or

action by the Company in respect of the events set out in clauses (i) to (vi) above and advising the Company of the Employee’s

intention to terminate the Employee’s employment for Good Reason. If the Employee fails to provide such notice within 30 days, such

event shall not constitute Good Reason under this Agreement. Following receipt of such notice from the Employee, the Company shall then

have 30 business days to take any required corrective action to rectify or rescind such event (and if such event is so rectified or rescinded,

such event shall not constitute Good Reason) and to notify the Employee in writing that it has completed such rectification or rescindment,

or to notify the Employee that it denies the occurrence of such event.

(d) A notice of resignation for Good Reason in accordance with the foregoing will be deemed to have occurred

within the twelve (12) month period following a Change in Control provided the Employee gives the required notice to the Company prior

to the end of such twelve (12) month period.

(e) The payments provided for in paragraph (a) under this Section 10.3 shall be inclusive of the

Employee’s entitlement to notice and severance pay at common law or by statute. The Company shall not be obligated to make any further

payments under this Agreement, except for the payment of any reasonable expenses due and owing pursuant to Section 6.

(f) For the purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” means any of the following

events occurring after the date hereof:

(i) a transaction or series of transactions whereby any “person” or related “group”

of “persons” (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) directly or indirectly

acquires beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act) of securities of the Company possessing

more than 50% of the total combined voting power of the Company’s securities outstanding immediately after such acquisition; provided

however that the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change in Control: (i) any acquisition by the Company or any of its

Subsidiaries; (ii) any acquisition by an employee benefit plan maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) any

acquisition which complies with Sections 10.3(f)(iii)(I), 10.3(f)(iii)(II) and 10.3(f)(iii)(III) or (iv); in respect of an Award

(as defined in the Company’s Long Term Incentive Plan) held by a particular Holder, any acquisition by the Holder or any group of

persons including the Holder (or any entity controlled by the Holder or any group of persons including the Holder);

11

(ii) the Incumbent Directors, as defined in the Company’s Long Term Incentive Plan, or successor plan,

cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the Board;

(iii) the consummation by the Company (whether

directly involving the Company or indirectly involving the Company through one or more intermediaries)

of (x) a merger, consolidation, reorganization, or business combination, (y) a

sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the

Company’s assets in any single transaction or series of related transactions or (z) the

acquisition of assets or stock of another entity, in each case other than a transaction:

(I) which results

in the Company’s voting securities outstanding immediately before the transaction continuing

to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities

of the Company or the person that, as a result of the transaction, controls, directly or

indirectly, the Company or owns, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all of the

Company’s assets or otherwise succeeds to the business of the Company (the Company

or such person, the “Successor Entity”)) directly or indirectly, at least

a majority of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity’s outstanding voting

securities immediately after the transaction, and

(II) after which

no person or group beneficially owns voting securities representing 50% or more of the combined

voting power of the Successor Entity; provided however that no person or group shall be treated

for purposes of this Section as beneficially owning 50% or more of the combined voting

power of the Successor Entity solely as a result of the voting power held in the Company

prior to the consummation of the transaction; and

(III) after

which at least a majority of the board of directors (or the analogous governing body)

of the Successor Entity were Board members at the time of the Board’s approval of the

execution of the initial agreement providing for such transaction; or

(iv) the date which is 10 business days prior to the completion of a liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change

in Control constitutes a payment event with respect to any amount that provides for the deferral of compensation that is subject to Section 409A

of the Code, to the extent required to avoid the imposition of additional taxes under Section 409A, the transaction or event described

in subsection (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) with respect to such payment (or portion thereof) shall only constitute a Change in Control

for purposes of the payment if such transaction also constitutes a “change in control event,” as defined in Treasury Regulation

Section 1.409A-3(i)(S).

12

(g) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement to the

contrary, if any of the payments or benefits provided or to be provided by the Company to Employee or for Employee’s benefit pursuant

to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (“Covered Payments”) constitute parachute payments (“Parachute Payments”)

within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and would, but for this Section 10.3 be subject to the excise tax imposed under

Section 4999 of the Code (or any successor provision thereto) or any similar tax imposed by state or local law or any interest or

penalties with respect to such taxes (collectively, the “Excise Tax”), then prior to making the Covered Payments, a calculation

shall be made comparing (i) the Net Benefit (as defined below) to Employee of the Covered Payments after payment of the Excise Tax

to (ii) the Net Benefit to Employee if the Covered Payments are limited to the extent necessary to avoid being subject to the Excise

Tax. Only if the amount calculated under (i) above is less than the amount under (ii) above will the Covered Payments be reduced

to the minimum extent necessary to ensure that no portion of the Covered Payments is subject to the Excise Tax (that amount, the “Reduced

Amount”). “Net Benefit” shall mean the present value of the Covered Payments net of all federal, state, local, foreign

income, employment and excise taxes. Any such reduction shall be made by the Company in its sole discretion consistent with the requirements

of Section 409A of the Code. In the event that Employee receives reduced payments and benefits, the order in which they shall be

reduced is the following: (i) cash payments under Section 10.3 that do not constitute deferred compensation within the meaning

of Section 409A of the Code; (ii) cash payments under Section 10.3 that do constitute deferred compensation, in each case,

beginning with the payment or benefits that are to be paid or provided the farthest in time from the effective date of Employee’s

termination of employment; and (iii) the rights to any acceleration of equity awards; in each case only to the extent that such reduction

would eliminate or reduce the Excise Tax.

10.4         The

Employee agrees that the notice, pay in lieu of notice (or a combination thereof) together with the benefits set out in Sections 10.1(c) or

10.3 shall be in full and final settlement of any and all actions, causes of actions, suits, claims, demands and entitlements whatsoever

which the Employee has or may have, whether pursuant to statute, common law or otherwise, against the Company and any of its directors,

officers, employees, representatives, successors and assigns, arising out of the Employee's hiring, employment and the termination of

the Employee's employment or this Agreement and the Employee expressly waives any and all entitlement to reasonable notice or pay in lieu

thereof pursuant to common law. The amounts and benefits set out in Sections 10.1(c) and 10.3 in excess of employment standards minimums

are conditional upon the Employee executing a full and final release in favor of the Company, in a form acceptable to the Company.

10.5         If

this Agreement is terminated by either party while the Employee is on site at any work location other than where the Employee is otherwise

based, regardless of the circumstances or the reason for termination, the Company will reimburse the Employee for his/her return flight

home and any change fees that are incurred by the Employee.

13

the Employee is a director or other officer or manager of the Company or of any of its subsidiary companies, the Company is not obliged

as a director of the Company by reason of election by the Company's shareholders, or removal of the Employee as a director of a subsidiary,

or removal from that other office or management position will not amount to a breach of this Agreement or constitute Good Reason or constitute

grounds for termination with Cause.

11.3         If

the Employee is at any time not a director of the Company or of any of its subsidiary companies, then the Employee shall not be entitled

to and shall not hold himself/herself out as a director and the removal of the term "Director" from the Employee's job title

will not constitute a breach by the Company of this Agreement.

11.4         Upon

the termination of the Employee's employment by the Company for any reason (unless the Company in writing requires the Employee not to

do so) the Employee hereby agrees to resign from and vacate each and every office as director of the Company or of any of its subsidiary

companies and every other office or management position which he/she may hold in the Company or a subsidiary company to which he/she may

have been appointed or elected, and for purposes hereof the Employee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally appoints any director of the

Company or the company secretary of the Company as his/her agent or attorney to effect each such resignation.

11.5         Notwithstanding

the provisions of Section 11.4, the Company may request the Employee to retain his/her office as a director of the Company or a subsidiary

notwithstanding the termination of his/her employment, in which case the Employee shall become a non-executive director of the Company

or of its subsidiary companies and shall be entitled to receive compensation as a non-employee director of the Company or such subsidiary.

11.6         The

Employee hereby indemnifies the Company (and their respective officers, managers and employees) in respect of any claims, losses, costs

or expenses whatsoever (including indirect and consequential damages) which may be suffered or incurred by any of them arising out of

or in connection with the Employee refusing for any reason whatsoever to resign from and/or vacate any office as a director or other position

contemplated in Section 11.4 for purposes of having to have the Employee removed as a director of the Company or a subsidiary company.

14

authorized in writing by the Board. "Confidential Information" includes, without limitation, the following types of information

after her employment by the Company. The Employee expressly acknowledges and agrees that all information relating to the Company, whether

financial, technical or otherwise shall, upon execution of this Agreement and thereafter, as the case may be, be the sole property of

the Company, whether arising before or after the execution of this Agreement. The Employee expressly agrees not to divulge any of the

foregoing information to any person, partnership, company or other legal entity or to assist in the disclosure or divulging of any such

information, directly or indirectly, except as required by law or as otherwise authorized in writing by the Board. The provisions of Section 12

shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

12.2          The

Employee agrees that all documents of any nature pertaining to the activities of the Company, including Confidential Information, in the

in any capacity whatsoever, alone, through or in connection with any person, employ, engage, offer employment or engagement to or solicit

the employment or engagement of or otherwise entice away an employee or officer of the Company, whether or not such person would commit

any breach of their contract of employment by reason of leaving their service.

13.2          Employee

agrees that the restrictions, including the duration, scope and geographic area for each, established under the covenants contained in

this Section 13 are fair, reasonable and necessary in order to protect the legitimate interests of the Company, that Employee is

receiving adequate consideration under this Agreement for such obligations, and that such obligations will not prevent the Employee from

earning a livelihood during the time periods covered by the restrictive covenants.

13.3          In

the event Employee has violated any of the covenants contained in this Section 13, the time period covered by the restrictive covenant

shall be tolled during the period in which the violation was occurring.

13.4         The

Employee agrees that a breach by his/her of any of the covenants contained in this Section 13 would result in the Company suffering

damages which could not adequately be compensated by monetary award. Accordingly, the Employee agrees that in the event of any such breach

or threatened breach, in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity, the Company will be entitled as a matter of right

to seek a temporary or permanent injunction or other equitable relief against such breach or threatened breach from any court of competent

the necessity of posting any bond or other security.

13.5         The

Employee further agrees that a breach by his/her of any of the covenants contained in this Section 13 constitutes Cause to terminate

written or oral, express or implied, to which the Employee is currently a party or by which the Employee or Employee's property is currently

Electric Inc. (“Ivanhoe Electric”) (NYSE American: IE; TSX: IE) Executive Chairman Robert Friedland and President and Chief

Executive Officer Taylor Melvin are pleased to announce the addition of two experienced mining professionals to the executive management

team of Ivanhoe Electric. Michelle Lammers will join as Chief Operating Officer of the Company, and Daniel Worthy will join as Senior

Vice President, Operations and General Manager for the Santa Cruz Copper Project in Arizona. The effective date for both Ms. Lammers

and Mr. Worthy is September 1, 2026.

1

Ms. Lammers joins Ivanhoe Electric

after more than twenty years with Tucson-based ASARCO LLC (the American Smelting and Refining Company, or “ASARCO”). ASARCO,

a United States subsidiary of Grupo Mexico, is an integrated copper mining, smelting and refining company with approximately 1,700 employees.

ASARCO operates three copper mining operations in Arizona and owns a smelter in Arizona and a copper refinery in Texas. Ms. Lammers

began her career with ASARCO in 2001 as a Metallurgical Engineer and progressed through various operational, project development, and

project leadership roles. She served as General Manager of the Ray Mine and Project Manager for the Mammoth Heap Leach Facility at the

Silver Bell Mine in Arizona. Ms. Lammers' most recent role is Operations Director – USA, with responsibility for ASARCO’s

United States mining operations, the Copper Basin Railway infrastructure system, and operational development and continuous improvement

programs across the company’s assets.

Mr. Worthy joins Ivanhoe Electric

from Nevada Gold Mines, a joint venture between Barrick and Newmont created in 2019. Nevada Gold Mines is the largest integrated gold-producing

complex in the world. Mr. Worthy has over twenty years of experience across large-scale underground and open-pit operations and

project development. He was most recently the General Manager, Technical Services at Nevada Gold Mines, and previously served as General

Manager of the Cortez Mine in Nevada and the Hemlo Mine in Ontario, Canada. His extensive underground mining experience includes serving

as Manager of Underground Mining at Leeville, Cortez Hills, and Goldrush mining operations in Nevada, and various leadership roles with

Gold Fields in Australia.

As General Manager, Mr. Worthy

will have day-to-day responsibility for all operating activities at the Santa Cruz Copper Project in Arizona. He will lead the site team

through construction, commissioning, ramp-up, and operations, with responsibility for safety, contractor performance, workforce development,

and overall site execution.

Ms. Lammers and Mr. Worthy

will work closely with Glen Kuntz, who will continue his leadership of the engineering and design activities for the Project, including

the completion of the updated Preliminary Feasibility Study that is expected to be completed in September. With the addition of Ms. Lammers

and Mr. Worthy, Ivanhoe Electric has built a team of experienced mining leaders to drive the detailed engineering, construction,

and operation of the Santa Cruz Copper Project in Arizona.

Mr. Friedland commented: “It

takes exceptional people to build mines, and with the addition of Michelle Lammers and Dan Worthy we are adding over 40 years of leadership

and operations experience as we transition our Santa Cruz Copper Project from engineering into construction and, ultimately, production.

With Michelle and Dan working alongside Glen Kuntz and his engineering professionals, we have a stronger leadership team to advance our

Santa Cruz Project. Michelle and Dan have demonstrated their abilities to lead large-scale copper operations, bulk underground mining

operations, and development projects in the United States. They bring a strong track record of successful, operations-focused leadership

to guide our team as we build America’s next large-scale copper producer that will support American energy and technology infrastructure,

supply chain security, and national defense.”

Mr. Melvin commented: “We

are excited to add Michelle and Dan to our leadership team at Ivanhoe Electric. Their decades of combined operating experience are the

perfect complement to the excellent work completed to date by Glen Kuntz and his team of engineering professionals. We have built an

experienced, disciplined and safety-focused team to advance our modern, high-grade, Santa Cruz Copper Project in Arizona though the Preliminary

Feasibility Study Update and into construction. Michelle and Dan’s decision to join Ivanhoe Electric is a testament to the high

quality of our existing team and the exciting potential of our Santa Cruz Project. I look forward to working with Michelle and Dan.”

Santa Cruz Copper

Project

The Santa Cruz Copper Project is

an advanced-stage, high-grade underground copper project located entirely on private land in Arizona. Santa Cruz is designed to use heap

leaching and solvent extraction-electrowinning to produce 99.99% pure copper cathode onsite without the need for smelting. The Project’s

updated Preliminary Feasibility Study (“PFS”) is on track for completion in September 2026. The updated PFS will incorporate

the engineering and mine access design associated with the Company’s previously announced purchase of a Robbins cross-over tunnel

boring machine (refer to Ivanhoe Electric's May 11, 2026, news release).

About Ivanhoe Electric

We are a United States-based, technology-driven

minerals exploration and development company with a focus on copper and other critical metals vital to electric transmission and generation,

manufacturing, infrastructure development, technology, and national security. Our wholly owned assets are located in the United States,

led by our advanced-stage Santa Cruz Copper Project in Arizona. We operate exploration joint ventures and alliances in Saudi Arabia with

Such statements in this news release

include, without limitation, statements relating to: completion of the updated Preliminary Feasibility Study for the Santa Cruz Copper

Project in September 2026; and the engineering, design, construction, and operation of the Santa Cruz Copper Project.

Forward-looking statements are based

on management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to management. Such statements are subject to significant

risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements due

to various factors, including changes in the prices of copper or other metals Ivanhoe Electric is exploring for; the results of exploration

and drilling activities and/or the failure of exploration programs or studies to deliver anticipated results or results that would justify

and support continued exploration, studies, development or operations; the final assessment of exploration results and information that

is preliminary; the significant risk and hazards associated with any future mining operations, extensive regulation by the U.S. government

as well as local governments; changes in laws, rules or regulations, or their enforcement by applicable authorities; the failure

of parties to contracts with Ivanhoe Electric to perform as agreed; and the impact of political, economic and other uncertainties associated

with operating in foreign countries, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the global economy. These factors should not be construed

as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements and risk factors described in Ivanhoe Electric’s

Annual Report on Form 10-K filed and other disclosures with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

No assurance can be given that such

future results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this news release. Ivanhoe Electric cautions

you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Subject to applicable securities laws, Ivanhoe Electric does
