Cautionary

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This

press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,

Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements,

other than statements of historical fact, included in this press release and in public statements by our officers or representatives

that address activities, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements.

These include, but are not limited to, statements regarding future business strategy, plans and goals, competitive strengths, the advancement

and development of the Hycroft Mine, the results and implications of metallurgical analysis and test work, and the expansion and growth

of our business.

Forward-looking

statements are often identified by future or conditional words such as “estimate,” “plan,” “anticipate,”

“expect,” “intend,” “believe,” “target,” “budget,” “may,” “can,”

“will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “seeks,” “scheduled to” and

similar words or expressions but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements

are based on current expectations, estimates and projections that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual

results to differ materially from those reflected in the statements. The risks include, but are not limited to: (i) risks related to

changes in our operations at the Hycroft Mine, including risks associated with the cessation of mining operations at the Hycroft Mine;

uncertainties concerning estimates of mineral resources; risks related to the lack of a completed feasibility study; risks related to

metallurgical test work and process development; and risks related to our ability to re-establish commercially feasible mining and processing

operations; and (ii) industry-related risks, including fluctuations in the price of gold and silver; the commercial success of, and risks

related to, our exploration and development activities; uncertainties and risks related to our reliance on contractors and consultants;

and the availability and cost of equipment, supplies, energy or reagents.

Any

exploration target described in this press release does not represent, and should not be construed to be, an estimate of a mineral resource

or mineral reserve. Ranges of potential tonnage and grade (or quality) of an exploration target are conceptual in nature; there has been

insufficient exploration of the relevant property or properties to estimate a mineral resource; and it is uncertain if further exploration

will result in the estimation of a mineral resource.

These

and other risks may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, and

the occurrence of one or more of these events or circumstances, alone or in combination with others, may have a material adverse effect

on our business, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations. Please see the “Risk Factors” outlined in our

Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and in other reports filed with the SEC, for more information about

these and other risks.

Given

these risks and uncertainties, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Although we have attempted

to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements,

there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. Although these forward-looking statements

are based on assumptions that we believe are reasonable when made, forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance

and actual results, performance or achievements may differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements

in this press release.

Any

forward-looking statements made in this press release speak only as of the date of this press release. We undertake no obligation to

update these forward-looking statements or to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any of those statements to reflect future

events or developments, except as required by law.
