TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / July 2, 2025 / Summit Royalty Corp. ("Summit") and Eagle Royalties Ltd. (CSE:ER.CN) ("Eagle") are pleased to announce that they have entered into a definitive amalgamation agreement (the "Amalgamation Agreement") in respect of a reverse takeover transaction (the "RTO"), pursuant to which Summit will "go-public" by way of a reverse takeover of Eagle. In this news release, references to the "Resulting Issuer" are to Eagle after the closing of the RTO.

Transaction Particulars and the Definitive Agreement
On June 30, 2025 Eagle, Summit and a newly-formed subsidiary of Eagle ("Eagle Subco") incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the "OBCA"), entered into the Amalgamation Agreement, which provides for, among other things, a three-cornered amalgamation (the "Amalgamation") pursuant to which (i) Eagle Subco will amalgamate with Summit under Section 174 of the OBCA to form one corporation, (ii) the securityholders of Summit will receive securities of the Resulting Issuer in exchange for their securities of Summit at an exchange ratio of five Resulting Issuer shares for each outstanding share of Summit (subject to adjustments in accordance with the Amalgamation Agreement) (the "Exchange Ratio"), and (iii) the transactions will result in a reverse takeover of Eagle, all in the manner contemplated by, and pursuant to, the terms and conditions of the Amalgamation Agreement. A copy of the Amalgamation Agreement will be available electronically on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) under Eagle's issuer profile in due course.

The Exchange Ratio implies estimated consideration of C$0.18 per Eagle share, representing a premium of 47% based on Eagle's closing price on June 30, 2025 on the Canadian Securities Exchange.

Drew Clark, President and Director of Summit, stated: "We are excited to announce this RTO with Eagle as we move toward a public listing and the combination of two strong royalty portfolios. Eagle's portfolio of royalties, notably including a royalty on a portion of Banyan's 7Moz AurMac Gold Project, coupled with over 35 royalty interests predominately in Canada, will provide excellent optionality that will complement our cash-flowing portfolio. We look forward to partnering with Eagle shareholders as we work to aggressively grow our business after we close the RTO."

Tim J. Termuende, President, CEO and Director of Eagle, stated: "We are very pleased to announce the RTO and partnership with Summit as Eagle enters this new and exciting chapter in its development. We believe that this transaction immediately unlocks value for Eagle shareholders through a significant upfront premium and look forward to becoming meaningful shareholders in the combined company. Summit's team of experienced royalty professionals will unlock significant value for Eagle's shareholders through the addition of Summit's current portfolio of cash-flowing royalty and streaming assets. I'd like to thank Eagle's shareholders and team for all of their continued efforts and support in this transaction. The transaction with Summit will accelerate the growth and development of the combined company."

As part of the RTO, and subject to any required shareholder and regulatory approvals, Eagle will: (i) change its name to "Summit Royalty Corp." or such other name as may be requested by Summit; (ii) change its stock exchange ticker symbol to a symbol to be determined between the parties and acceptable to the target stock exchange (the "Exchange") on which the shares of the Resulting Issuer will trade (which may be the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE") or the TSX Venture Exchange, as may be determined by Summit); (iii) reconstitute the board of directors and management of the Resulting Issuer; (iv) continue under the OBCA following completion of the RTO; (v) adopt a new equity compensation plan; (v) change its auditor; and (vi) if requested, consolidate its issued and outstanding shares at a consolidation ratio to be agreed between the parties (the "Consolidation").

Eagle intends to call an annual and special meeting of its shareholders to approve various corporate actions and seek approval of the RTO, which will result in a Fundamental Change (as defined in the policies of the CSE), by at least a majority of its shareholders pursuant to the policies of the CSE. In support of the RTO, all the directors and officers of Eagle, representing approximately 22% of the outstanding common shares of Eagle have entered into voting support agreements with Summit in support of the RTO (the "Eagle Support Agreements"). In addition, all of the directors and officers and certain shareholders of Summit representing approximately 78% of the outstanding common shares of Summit have entered into voting support agreements with Eagle in support of the RTO (the "Summit Support Agreements", together with the Eagle Support Agreements, the "Support Agreements").

The Amalgamation Agreement was negotiated at arm's length between representatives of Eagle and Summit. The board of directors of each of Eagle and Summit determined that the RTO is fair to the shareholders of Eagle and Summit, respectively.

The common shares of Eagle will remain halted pending further filings with the Exchange.

The Resulting Issuer is expected to be owned approximately (i) 80% by current shareholders of Summit, (ii) 20% by the current shareholders of Eagle, after giving effect to the RTO and without taking into account the effect of any financings before completion of the RTO.

The full particulars of the RTO, the material properties of the Resulting Issuer, and the Resulting Issuer will be described in the management information circular of Eagle (the "Circular"), which will contain the information required pursuant to listing statement requirements under the policies of the Exchange. A copy of the Circular will be available electronically on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) under Eagle's issuer profile in due course.

Completion of the RTO is subject to a number of conditions, including, but not limited to, Exchange acceptance and required shareholder approvals of Eagle and Summit. There can be no assurance that the RTO will be completed as proposed or at all. The completion of the RTO is also subject to other customary conditions for a transaction of this nature.

Investors are cautioned that, except as disclosed in the Circular to be prepared in connection with the RTO, any information released or received with respect to the RTO may not be accurate or complete and should not be relied upon. Trading in the securities of Eagle should be considered highly speculative.

Neither Exchange has in any way passed upon the merits of the proposed RTO and has neither approved nor disapproved the contents of this news release.
