Article content MEDELLÍN, Colombia — Mineros S.A. (TSX:MSA, MINEROS:CB) (' Mineros ' or the ' Company ') announces that the Colombian Superintendent of Finance (' SFC ') has issued a public notice (the ' SFC Notice ') announcing the filing with the SFC of an application to make a tender offer in Colombia to acquire between 8% and 11% of the issued and subscribed ordinary shares of Mineros (' Mineros Shares ') through the Colombia Stock Exchange (' BVC ') at an offer price of $5,500 Colombian pesos per share (the ' Offer '). Article content Article content In accordance with Colombian laws regulating public tender offers, the SFC Notice was issued following the receipt by the SFC of notice of the offeror's intention to make the Offer, together with supporting documentation for review. The Offer cannot be made or accepted by shareholders until it is approved by the SFC and additional prescribed requirements are satisfied. Receipt of SFC approval will be contingent on the offeror satisfying the SFC that the Offer complies with applicable regulations, and complies with certain formalities, including providing a performance guarantee covering a certain percentage of the aggregate purchase price for the Mineros Shares that are the subject of the Offer. The BVC announced on Tuesday, May 27, 2025 that Sun Valley Investments AG (' Sun Valley ') has submitted such a performance guarantee in connection with the Offer. Article content The SFC is required to provide comments on the Offer to the offeror within five business days after receiving the offeror's submission (the ' Initial Comment Period '). Colombian laws require the offeror to publish notice of the Offer (an ' Offer Notice ') within five business days following expiry of the Initial Comment Period if SFC does not provide comments or within five business days following the SFC authorization of the Offer, such notice must be published two additional times. In accordance with Colombian laws, trading in Mineros Shares on the BVC was halted upon the issuance of the SFC Notice, and will remain suspended until the day following the first publication of the Offer Notice. The Company does not expect trading in Mineros Shares on the TSX to be halted. Article content Yesterday, Sun Valley announced that it has entered into a share purchase agreement (the ' Agreement ') with Corporación Financiera Colombiana S.A. (' Corficolombiana ') to acquire 23,850,263 Mineros Shares (the ' Acquired Shares '), representing approximately 8.0% of the issued and outstanding Mineros Shares, at a purchase price of 5,500 Colombian pesos per Acquired Share, subject to prior satisfaction of certain conditions precedent. The Agreement contemplates purchases of Acquired Shares may be made through various purchase mechanisms, including tender offers in Colombia and private secondary market transactions in Canada. Sun Valley announced that the Agreement obligates Corficolombiana to sell exclusively to Sun Valley. Sun Valley reports that it currently owns 172,122,705 Mineros Shares representing approximately 57.4% of the Mineros Shares. Upon closing of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, Sun Valley expects to own 195,972,968 Mineros Shares, representing approximately 65.4% of the Mineros Shares. If the Offer is successful, and assuming that all of the Acquired Shares are acquired from Corficolombiana through the Offer, Sun Valley could acquire additional Mineros Shares from other sellers representing up to a further 3.0% of the outstanding Mineros Shares, which would bring its interest in Mineros to a maximum of approximately 68.4% of the Mineros Shares. Article content Mineros is a gold mining company based in Medellin, Colombia. The company has a diversified asset base, with relatively low-cost mines in Colombia and Nicaragua and a portfolio of development and exploration projects throughout the region. Article content Mineros' board of directors and senior management have extensive experience in mining, corporate development, finance and sustainability. Mineros has a long history of maximizing shareholder value and paying strong annual dividends. For 50 years, Mineros has operated with a focus on safety and sustainability throughout its operations. Article content Mineros common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol 'MSA' and on the Colombia Stock Exchange under the symbol 'MINEROS'. Article content The Company has been granted an exemption from the individual voting and majority voting requirements applicable to listed issuers under Toronto Stock Exchange policies, on grounds that compliance with such requirements would constitute a breach of Colombian laws and regulations which require the directors to be elected on the basis of a slate of nominees proposed for election pursuant to an electoral quotient system.
