Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws. All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this Quarterly Report, regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management are forward-looking statements. When used in this Quarterly Report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “outlook,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “can,” the negatives thereof, variations thereon and other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. Forward-looking statements are based on certain estimates, beliefs, expectations and assumptions made in light of management’s experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors that may be appropriate.

Forward-looking statements necessarily involve unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. Due to the risks, uncertainties and assumptions inherent in forward-looking information, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Factors that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects can be found in Item 1A, Risk Factors, Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and in Item 1A, Risk Factors and Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

●

planned expenditures and budgets and the execution thereof, including the ability of the Company to discharge its liabilities as they become due and to continue as a going concern;

●

access to capital and suitable financing sources to fund the exploration, permitting, development and construction of the Project (as defined below);

●

permitting timelines and requirements, including with respect to the timing, review process, and outcome of the Final Environmental Impact Statement (“FEIS”), the draft Record of Decision, the Final Record of Decision and other permitting processes;

●

the Company’s plans to submit a financing application to the Export - Import Bank of the United States (“EXIM”), the prospects of successfully securing financing from EXIM on acceptable terms, or at all, and the expected timing of, and benefits to the Project (as defined below) of, securing such financing from EXIM;

●

the intended environmental and other outcomes of the South Fork Salmon Water Quality Enhancement Fund (the “Fund”) related to the Nez Perce Tribe’s Clean Water Act (“CWA”) lawsuit, good faith discussions between the Company and the Nez Perce Tribe with respect to future permitting and activities at the Project and the anticipated source of funding of the Company’s payments required under the Settlement Agreement (as defined below);

●

regulatory and legal changes, requirements for additional capital, requirements for additional water rights and the potential effect of proposed notices of environmental conditions relating to mineral claims;

●

analyses and other information based on expectations of future performance and planned work programs;

●

possible events, conditions or financial performance that are based on assumptions about future economic conditions and courses of action;

●

assumptions and analysis underlying our mineral reserve estimates and plans for mineral resource exploration and development;

●

timing, costs and potential success of future activities on the Company’s properties, including but not limited to development and operating costs in the event that a production decision is made;

●

potential results of exploration, development and environmental protection and remediation activities;

●

future outlook and goals;

●

current or future litigation or environmental liability;

●

global economic, political and social conditions and financial markets, including inflationary pressures and elevated interest rates;

●

changes in gold and antimony commodity prices;

●

our ability to implement our strategic plan and to maintain and manage growth effectively;

●

loss of key executives or inability to hire or retain key executives or employees to support the construction, permitting and operations;

●

labor shortages and disruptions;

●

cyber-attacks and other security breaches of our information and technology systems; and

●

other factors and risks described under the heading “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of this Quarterly Report.

Table of Contents

Statements concerning mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates may also be deemed to constitute forward-looking information to the extent that such statements involve estimates of the mineralization that may be encountered if a property is developed.

With respect to forward-looking information contained herein, the Company has applied several material factors or assumptions including, but not limited to, certain assumptions as to production rates, operating cost, recovery and metal costs; that any additional financing needed will be available when needed on reasonable terms; that the current exploration, development, environmental and other objectives concerning the Company’s Stibnite Gold Project (the “Project” or “Stibnite Gold Project”) can be achieved and that the Company’s other corporate activities will proceed as expected; that the formal review process under the National Environmental Policy Act (“NEPA”) (including a joint review process involving the United States Forest Service (“USFS” or “Forest Service”), the State of Idaho and other agencies and regulatory bodies) as well as the environmental impact statements will proceed in a timely manner and as expected; payment and other settlement conditions under the final Settlement Agreement filed on August 8, 2023 and approved by the United States District Court for the District of Idaho on October 2, 2023 to resolve the CWA litigation (the “Settlement Agreement”) will proceed on the anticipated timeline and terms, the parties will engage in good faith discussions regarding the Project and the Fund, that the Project will receive necessary permits and approvals, that Perpetua will be able to successfully obtain financing for the Project, and that all requisite information will be available in a timely manner; that the current price and demand for gold and other metals will be sustained or will improve; that general business and economic conditions will not change in a materially adverse manner and that all necessary governmental approvals for the planned exploration, development and environmental protection activities on the Project will be obtained in a timely manner and on acceptable terms; and that the continuity of economic and political conditions and operations of the Company will be sustained.

These risks are not exhaustive. Because of these risks and other uncertainties, our actual results, performance or achievement, or industry results, may be materially different from the anticipated or estimated results discussed in the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors nor can we assess the effects of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in, or implied by, any forward-looking statements. Our past results of operations are not necessarily indicative of our future results. You should not rely on any forward-looking statements, which represent our beliefs, assumptions and estimates only as of the dates on which they were made, as predictions of future events. We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, even though circumstances may change in the future, except as required under applicable securities laws. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Perpetua Resources Corp. (the “Corporation”, the “Company”, “Perpetua Resources” or “Perpetua”) was incorporated on February 22, 2011 under the Business Corporation Act (British Columbia). The Company was organized to hold shares in wholly owned subsidiaries that locate, acquire, develop and restore mineral properties located principally in the Stibnite – Yellow Pine mining district in Valley County, Idaho, USA. The Company’s principal asset is 100% ownership in subsidiaries that control the Stibnite Gold Project (“Stibnite Gold Project” or the “Project”). The Company currently operates in one segment, mineral exploration in the United States.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of Perpetua Resources Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Perpetua Resources Idaho, Inc. and Idaho Gold Resource Company, LLC. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required of annual consolidated financial statements and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with our annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2024 may not be indicative of results expected for the full year ending December 31, 2024. Management estimates that the Company’s 2024 effective tax rate will be 0% due to the Company’s cumulative loss position, historical net operating losses (“NOLs”), and other available evidence related to the Company’s ability to generate taxable income. Accordingly, there is no income tax provision or benefit for the six month period ended June 30, 2024.

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods reported.

The Company’s latest liquidity forecast indicates that available cash resources and other sources of liquidity are expected to be exhausted in the fourth quarter of 2024. Although the Company’s current capital resources and liquidity include up to $59.2 million in funding awarded under the modified Technology Investment Agreement (“TIA”) pursuant to Title III of the Defense Production Act (“DPA”), such funding is available only for the specified costs related to permitting, environmental baseline data monitoring, environmental and technical studies, and advancing construction readiness and is not available to fund the Company’s costs pursuant to its Administrative Settlement and Order on Consent (“ASAOC”) obligations and certain corporate expenses, including payments under the Settlement Agreement (as defined below). Absent additional financing, the Company would no longer be able to meet its ongoing obligations or progress critical permitting efforts. The Company continues to explore various funding opportunities, which may include the issuance of additional equity, new debt, or project specific debt; government funding; and/or other financing opportunities. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such funding.

On May 12, 2023, the Company entered into a Controlled Equity Offering^SM Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) providing for the sale by the Company, from time to time, of its common shares having an aggregate gross offering price of up to $20.0 million. Sales under the program are subject to certain conditions, including market conditions, and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise funds under the program, at acceptable share prices or at all. As of June 30, 2024, $17.2 million remains available under the program.

We believe our plans outlined above to obtain sufficient funding will be successful although there is no certainty that these plans will result in needed liquidity for a reasonable period of time. However, our expectation of incurring ASAOC costs, contributions due under the Settlement Agreement and other costs in the foreseeable future that are not eligible for DPA funding reimbursement and the need for additional funding to further support the development of our planned operations, raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year after the date that these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business and do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of the uncertainties described above.

Loss per share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the weighted average shares outstanding are increased to include additional shares for the assumed exercise of share purchase options and vesting and distribution of awarded share units, if dilutive. The Company’s potential dilutive common shares include outstanding share purchase options, restricted share units, performance share units, and deferred share units. Potentially dilutive shares as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, are as follows:


	June 30
	2024	2023
Share purchase options	1,086,534	1,765,750
Share units	2,258,428	1,380,407
Balance	3,344,962	3,146,157

All potentially dilutive shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their exercise and conversion would be anti-dilutive.

2.Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, amending reportable segment disclosure requirements to include disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis. Among the disclosure enhancements are new disclosures regarding significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision-maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, as well as other segment items bridging segment revenue to each reported measure of segment profit or loss. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and are applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We continue to evaluate the impact of this update however we do not expect any significant changes to our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures, amending income tax disclosure requirements for the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and are applied prospectively. Early adoption and retrospective application of the amendments are permitted. We continue to evaluate the impact of this update however we do not expect any significant changes to our consolidated financial statements.

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards did not or will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

3.Mineral Properties and Interest

The Company’s mineral properties and interest at the Stibnite Gold Project totaled $64,485,250 and $72,820,365 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

The Company’s subsidiaries acquired mineral rights to the Stibnite Gold Project through several transactions. All mineral and surface rights, where applicable, are held by the Company’s subsidiaries through patented and unpatented lode mining claims and mill sites, except the Cinnabar option claims which are held under an option to purchase, and all of the Stibnite Gold Project is subject to a 1.7% net smelter returns royalty upon the sale of project-related gold production.

On March 21, 2024, Perpetua Resources and its subsidiaries granted a perpetual 100% NSR royalty on the future payable silver production from the Project to Franco-Nevada Idaho Corporation (“Franco-Nevada”) for gross proceeds of $8,500,000. The silver royalty agreement applies to the same properties as the gold royalty previously purchased by Franco-Nevada in 2013. The silver royalty agreement provides a mechanism whereby Franco-Nevada can receive minimum payments equal to 100% of the payable silver from the sale of dore commencing in the seventh calendar year following commercial production and ending upon the completion of the fifteenth calendar year following commercial production. The silver royalty agreement also provides Franco-Nevada an option upon the occurrence of certain conditions precedent (including achieving commercial production) to pay the Company a contingent payment and receive a royalty on any silver payable from the production of antimony concentrate from the Project. The Company incurred costs of $164,835 associated with this transaction. The net proceeds of $8,335,115 were recorded as a reduction to the carrying value of the mineral properties and interests during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

The Company’s obligations under the gold and silver royalty agreements with Franco-Nevada are secured by a continuing security interest and a first priority lien on certain collateral including the land and mineral interests comprising the Project.

Included in mineral properties and interest are annual payments made under option agreements, where the Company is entitled to continue to make annual option payments or, ultimately, purchase certain properties. Annual payments due under option agreements during 2024 are approximately $180,000.

As of June 30, 2024, it has not yet been determined that the Project’s mining deposits can be economically and legally extracted or produced because the Project’s estimated reserves do not yet meet the definition of proven reserves under the United States SEC Regulation S-K 1300.

Accordingly, development costs related to such reserves will not be capitalized unless they are incurred after such determination. Upon commencement of commercial production, capitalized costs will be amortized over their estimated useful lives or units of production, whichever is a more reliable measure.

Although the Company has taken steps to review and verify mineral rights to the properties in which it has an interest, in accordance with industry standards for properties in the development stage, these procedures do not guarantee the Company’s title and interests. Mineral title may be subject to unregistered prior agreements and noncompliance with regulatory requirements.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company has recognized $532,567 (2023: $287,579) and $913,206 (2023: $508,137), respectively, in compensation expense related to PSUs and MPSUs and expects to record an additional $3.3 million in compensation expense over the next 2.0 years. The unvested units of June 30, 2024 are scheduled to vest as follows:


Remainder of 2024		3,500
2025		377,233
2026		283,862
2027		328,448
Total		993,043

PSUs: These PSUs vest upon completion of the performance period and specific performance conditions set forth for each individual grant for individually defined reporting and operating measurement objectives. The Company determines the factor to be applied to that target number of PSUs, with such percentage based on level of achievement of the performance conditions. Upon the achievement of the conditions, any unvested PSUs become fully vested. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company awarded 120,000 PSUs (2023: 3,500 PSUs) that had a weighted average grant date fair value of $3.95 (2023: $4.79), or $474,000 (2023: $16,765) in total.

Market-based PSUs: During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company granted MPSUs where vesting is based on the Company’s cumulative total shareholder return (“TSR”) as compared to the constituents that comprise the VanEck Junior Gold Miners ETF (“GDXJ Index”) a group of similar junior gold mining companies, over a three year period (the “Performance Period”). The ultimate number of MPSUs that vest may range from 0% to 200% of the original target number of shares depending on the relative achievement of the TSR performance measure at the end of the Performance Period. Because the number of MPSUs that are earned will be based on the Company’s TSR over the Performance Period, the MPSUs are considered subject to a market condition. Compensation cost is recognized ratably over the Performance Period regardless as to whether the market condition is actually satisfied; however, the compensation cost will reverse if an employee terminates prior to satisfying the requisite service period.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company awarded 389,502 MPSUs (2023: 277,535 MPSUs) that had a weighted grant date fair value of $5.00 (2023: $5.98) per MPSU or approximately $1.9 million (2023: $1.7 million) in total. The grant date fair value of MPSUs was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Assumptions and estimates utilized in the model include expected volatilities of the Corporation’s share price and the GDXJ Index, the Company’s risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. The probabilities of the actual number of MPSUs expected to vest and resultant actual number of common shares expected to be awarded are reflected in the grant date fair values of the various MPSU awards. The per MPSU grant date fair value for the market condition was based on the following variables:


		2024			2023
Grant date fair value	$	5.00		$	5.98
Risk-free interest rate		4.38	%		4.15	%
Expected term (in years)		3.0			3.0
Expected share price volatility		57.36	%		65.74	%
Expected dividend yield		—			—

The expected volatility utilized is based on the historical volatilities of the Corporation’s common shares and the GDXJ Index in order to model the stock price movements. The volatility used was calculated over the most recent three year period. The risk-free interest rates used are based on the implied yield available on a U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bill with a term equivalent to the Performance Period. The expected dividend yield of zero was used since it is the mathematical equivalent to reinvesting dividends in each issuing entity over the Performance Period.

Stibnite Foundation

Upon formation of the Stibnite Foundation on February 26, 2019, the Company became contractually liable for certain future payments to the Stibnite Foundation based on several triggering events, including receipt of a Final Record of Decision issued by the USFS, receipt of all permits and approvals necessary for commencement of construction, commercial production, and of the final reclamation phase. These payments could begin as early as the fourth quarter of 2024 based on the current permitting schedule and range from $0.1 million to $1 million (upon commencement of final reclamation phase) in cash and 150,000 common shares of the Company. During commercial production, the Company will make payments to the Stibnite Foundation equal to 1% of Total Comprehensive Income less debt repayments, or a minimum of $0.5 million each year.

The Stibnite Foundation will support projects that benefit the communities surrounding the Stibnite Gold Project and was created through the establishment of the Community Agreement between Perpetua Resources Idaho, Inc. and eight communities and counties throughout the West Central Mountains region of Idaho.

Option Payments on Other Properties

The Company is obligated to make option payments on mineral properties in order to maintain an option to purchase these properties. As of June 30, 2024, the option payments due on these properties in 2024 are approximately $180,000, which will be paid this year. The agreements include options to extend.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

e.Legal Update

The Corporation and its subsidiaries have been parties to an ongoing legal proceeding with the Nez Perce Tribe for alleged violations of the Clean Water Act (“CWA”) related to historical mining activities. In August 2019, the Nez Perce Tribe filed suit in the United States District Court for the District of Idaho. The Corporation promptly filed a motion to dismiss and, in the alternative, a motion to stay the litigation. Both motions were denied. Subsequently, the Corporation filed an answer generally denying liability and later, the court allowed the Corporation to amend and file a third-party complaint against the Forest Service. The Corporation also filed a separate CWA citizen suit against the United States Forest Service (“USFS” or “Forest Service”) alleging that several of the point source discharges, as alleged by the Nez Perce Tribe in its complaint, were occurring on lands owned and controlled by the United States government. Pursuant to the terms of the voluntary ASAOC executed in January 2021 with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“U.S. EPA”) and the United States Department of Agriculture, the Corporation agreed to dismiss its pending actions against the Forest Service without prejudice. The remaining parties to the ongoing legal proceeding agreed to stay the litigation and explore Alternative Dispute Resolution options through court-ordered mediation.

On August 8, 2023, the Company and the Nez Perce Tribe filed a final Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) to resolve the CWA litigation. The parties jointly asked the court to approve the Settlement Agreement and dismiss the case without prejudice. The Settlement Agreement provides for total payments of $5 million by Perpetua over a four-year period. This includes $4 million of contributions by Perpetua to a South Fork Salmon Water Quality Enhancement Fund (the “Fund”) to be used by the Nez Perce Tribe to support water quality improvement projects in the South Fork Salmon River watershed and $1 million of reimbursements to the Nez Perce Tribe for legal expenses. Following a 45-day review period by the United States Justice Department and the U.S. EPA, the U.S. District Court for the District of Idaho approved the Stipulation for Dismissal and entered a Judgment on October 2, 2023 which resulted in the CWA lawsuit being dismissed without prejudice. Under the Settlement Agreement, a dismissal with full prejudice will follow after completion of Perpetua’s required payments. Once Perpetua has satisfied its payment obligations under the Settlement Agreement, the parties will submit a Stipulation of Dismissal with Prejudice to the court. The Company recognized an expense of $5 million during the second quarter of 2023. During the six month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company made the initial $500,000 legal expense payment. As of June 30, 2024, CWA settlement payable current portion is $1,500,000 with the remaining $3,000,000 classified as long-term.

Table of Contents

The voluntary CERCLA ASAOC entered into by the Corporation, the U.S. EPA, and the United States Department of Agriculture requires numerous early cleanup actions to occur over the next several years at the Stibnite Gold Project site (the “Stibnite Site”). Perpetua Resources Idaho, Inc. is presently developing and executing the Phase 1 early cleanup actions (known under CERCLA as “time critical removal actions”) that, after final work plan approval by the federal agencies, are designed to efficiently improve water quality in a number of areas on the Stibnite Site. Construction of time critical removal actions began in the summer of 2022, and significant progress was achieved to complete the voluntary Phase 1 Stibnite Site cleanup during the limited work seasons. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company spent $0.5 million on ASAOC activities and estimates $0.8 million in remaining work to be completed in 2024. Other longer-term proposed actions relating to Project operations are being evaluated through the NEPA process.

7.Government Grants

The Company has been awarded government grants by the U.S. Department of Defense (“DOD”) as described below. Accounting for these DOD grants does not fall under Accounting Standard Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as the DOD does not meet the definition of a customer under this standard. The DOD grant proceeds, which will be used to reimburse expenses incurred, meet the definition of grants related to expenses as the primary purpose for the payments is to fund research and development on antimony trisulfide and the advancement of the Company’s Stibnite Gold Project.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, grant income, which is included within other income (expense) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, included the following:

Information regarding each individual grant is as follows:

Small Business Innovation Research (“SBIR”) Grant: In September 2022, the Company was awarded two separate funding grants from the U.S. Department of Defense (“DOD”) Defense Logistics Agency (“DLA”) totaling $200,000 to study the domestic production of military-grade antimony trisulfide. The programs were complete in September 2023 so no additional grant income is anticipated under the program.

Defense Production Act (“DPA”) Grant: On December 16, 2022, the Company entered into an undefinitized Technology Investment Agreement (“TIA”) with the DOD - Air Force Research Laboratory for an award of up to $24.8 million under Title III of the DPA. On July 25, 2023, the TIA was definitized with the DOD, establishing the full not-to-exceed amount of $24.8 million and on May 2, 2024, the TIA was modified with an additional $34.4 million in funding, bringing the total amount of the TIA to $59.2 million. The funding objective of the TIA is to complete environmental and engineering studies necessary to obtain a Final Environmental Impact Statement, a Final Record of Decision, and other ancillary permits to sustain the domestic production of antimony trisulfide capability for defense energetic materials at the Stibnite Gold Project. Proceeds from the grant will be used primarily to reimburse the Company for certain costs incurred through June 16, 2025 related to environmental baseline data monitoring, environmental and technical studies and other activities related to advancing the Company’s construction readiness and the permitting process for the Stibnite Gold Project. The Company anticipates recognizing approximately $15,000,000 of additional grant income for the three months ended September 30, 2024. During the three and

six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company was reimbursed $1,793,364 (2023: $2,184,944) and $4,750,495 (2023: $4,244,605), respectively, for certain costs incurred.

DOD Ordnance Technology Consortium (“DOTC”) Grant: On August 18, 2023, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Perpetua Resources Idaho, Inc., was awarded an Ordnance Technology Initiative Agreement (“OTIA”) of up to $15.5 million under the Prototype Other Transaction Authority of the DOD through the DOTC. The funding objective of the OTIA is to demonstrate a fully domestic antimony trisulfide supply chain using ore from the Stibnite Gold Project site. The OTIA designates funding to the Company to conduct activities to meet this objective, including obtaining additional core samples from the Project site, conducting a pilot plant study to produce mil-spec antimony trisulfide from the samples, designing a full-scale process circuit, and delivering a modular pilot plant for the DOD to use in further investigations. Under the OTIA, the Company will be reimbursed for these activities on a cost-plus fixed fee basis over the 24-month period of performance. The current estimated amount is $15.5 million, which is subject to adjustment by the DOD based on scope, costs, budget, or other factors as the program advances. Perpetua will be entitled to reimbursement for all costs incurred under the agreement, with the negotiated fee being 12%. The OTIA contains customary terms and conditions for OTIAs, including ongoing reporting obligations. The Company anticipates recognizing approximately $900,000 of additional grant income for the next three months ended September 30, 2024. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company received cash from this grant of $976,352 and $4,466,493 respectively, for reimbursement of certain costs incurred of $871,743 and $3,987,940 and 12% fee income of $104,609 and $478,553, respectively. During the three month and six months ended June 30, 2024, grant income includes $3,779 and $278,116, respectively,of 12% fee income earned on costs incurred. No grant income was earned during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Overview

Perpetua Resources (formerly Midas Gold Corp.) was incorporated on February 22, 2011 under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “BCBCA”). The Corporation was organized to hold shares in wholly owned subsidiaries that locate, acquire, develop and restore mineral properties located principally in the Stibnite – Yellow Pine mining district in Valley County, Idaho, USA. The Corporation’s principal asset is 100% ownership in subsidiaries that control the Stibnite Gold Project. The Corporation currently operates in one segment, mineral exploration in the United States. The registered office of the Perpetua Resources is Suite 1008-550 Burrard St, Vancouver, BC, V6C 2B5, Canada and the corporate head office is located at 201-405 S 8th St, Boise, ID 83702, USA.

Recent Key Developments

2024 Outlook and Goals

Perpetua Resources’ vision is to provide the United States with a domestic source of the critical mineral antimony, develop one of the largest and highest-grade open pit gold mines in the country and restore an abandoned brownfield site. In 2024, Perpetua Resources will continue to focus on advancing the permitting for the Stibnite Gold Project through the National Environmental Policy Act (“NEPA”) process in addition to state ancillary permits and other federal authorization. The NEPA process is intended to ensure that federal agencies and the public are informed of a proposed action’s potential environmental impacts before a final decision is made by the agency regarding the action. The Company is also advancing construction readiness activities in parallel with the permitting process.

Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Statement (“SDEIS”)

In response to public and agency feedback on the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (“DEIS”) released by the United States Forest Service (“USFS”) in August 2020, Perpetua Resources proposed modifications to the mine plan analyzed in Alternative 2 in the DEIS and submitted a refined proposed action to the USFS in December 2020 (the “Modified Mine Plan”). The Modified Mine Plan included refinements to reduce the project footprint, improve water quality, and lower water temperature. The USFS decided to prepare a Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Statement to further evaluate the project refinements and compare the Company’s proposed site access via Burntlog Route to another action alternative utilizing current roads.

After nearly two years of review of the Modified Mine Plan by the USFS and other agencies, the SDEIS was published on October 28, 2022 for a 75-day public comment period. In the SDEIS, the USFS highlighted the net positive environmental outcomes that the Stibnite Gold Project can provide to the abandoned mine site based on the results of comprehensive scientific analysis conducted over the last six years. The USFS identified Perpetua Resources’ proposed action, the “Modified Mine Plan,” as the Preferred Alternative and also concluded the Preferred Alternative would reasonably accomplish the purpose and need for consideration of approval of the Stibnite Gold Project, all while considering environmental, economic, and technical factors. Under NEPA, a “Preferred Alternative” is identified by a Federal agency in a DEIS to advise the public which action the agency is leaning toward selecting as final. However, identification by an agency of a “Preferred Alternative” does not represent a final decision and the USFS may still select an action based on the Modified Mine Plan or a combination of each of the alternatives analyzed in the SDEIS when developing the Final Environmental Impact Statement (“FEIS”). The SDEIS public review period closed on January 10, 2023.

Table of Contents

On January 1, 2024, the USFS released an updated schedule for the Project that stated the USFS expected to publish a FEIS and a Draft Record of Decision in the second quarter of 2024 and a Final Record of Decision (“ROD”) in the fourth quarter of 2024. The USFS has confirmed that cooperating agency review of the FEIS is complete and both documents are completing final consultations and reviews in Washington D.C. As a result, management anticipates the publication of a FEIS and Draft Record of Decision in the third quarter of 2024 and a Final Record of Decision (“ROD”) in the fourth quarter of 2024. The publication of the permitting schedule does not indicate any commitments on the part of the USFS regarding the content or timing of a final decision. In developing the FEIS, the USFS may select an action based on components of each of the alternatives analyzed in the SDEIS. Furthermore, the USFS is not bound by the permitting schedule and anticipated milestones may be delayed materially or not be satisfied.

Ancillary Permitting

The Company continued to advance work on several ancillary permits which are being progressed in parallel with the NEPA process. Recent updates include:

●

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers continues to process the Company’s 404 permit application and Compensatory Mitigation Plan after the public comment period ended in October 2023.

●

The USFS Biological Assessment was deemed acceptable to begin formal Endangered Species Act Section 7 consultation by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Marine Fisheries Service in April 2024.

●

In May 2024, Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (“IDEQ”) issued its final 401 Water Quality Certification for the Project.

●

The Company submitted a Tailings Storage Facility (“TSF”) dam safety application to Idaho Department of Water Resources (“IDWR”) in July 2023. IDWR sent a letter of conditional approval for the Company’s Stage 1 TSF in October 2023.

●

The Company submitted a cyanidation facility permit application in August 2023 to IDEQ. IDEQ issued a letter of incompleteness in September 2023. The Company expects to resubmit an updated permit application in the third quarter of 2024.

●

The Idaho Ground Water Management Final Point of Compliance determination was issued in August 2023 and the Company submitted the required groundwater sampling and well installation plans in October 2023.

Previously submitted permit applications that are continuing through the administrative review process and include Clean Air Act Permit to Construct and Idaho Pollutant Discharge Elimination System industrial outfalls with IDEQ in addition to water rights with IDWR. Regarding the 401 certification discussed above, the U.S. EPA determined not to make a “may affect” finding of downstream neighboring jurisdiction water quality under Section 401(a)(2) of the Clean Water Act, but a state administrative review contested case was filed by petitioners June 28 2024.

Department of Defense Funding

In December 2022, Perpetua Resources was awarded an undefinitized TIA of up to $24.8 million under Title III of the DPA. On July 25, 2023, the TIA was definitized with the DOD, establishing the full not-to-exceed amount of $24.8 million and on May 2, 2024, the TIA was modified with an additional $34.4 million in funding, bringing the total amount of the TIA to $59.2 million. The funding objective of the TIA, issued by the Air Force Research Laboratory, is to complete environmental and engineering studies necessary to obtain a FEIS, a ROD, and other ancillary permits to sustain the domestic production of antimony trisulfide capability for defense energetic materials. The DPA funding allows the Company to advance the construction readiness of the Stibnite Gold Project while the Company continues through the ongoing permitting process, led by the USFS. Under the funding agreement, Perpetua Resources may request reimbursement for certain costs incurred through June 16, 2025 related to environmental baseline data monitoring, environmental and technical studies and other activities related to advancing Perpetua’s construction readiness and permitting process for the Stibnite Gold Project. The DPA funding does not interrupt the ongoing NEPA review process. The TIA contains customary terms and conditions for technology investment agreements, including ongoing reporting obligations. Perpetua Resources is evaluating other U.S. government funding opportunities, including programs available through the DOD. During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2024, $8,440,373 and $11,049,634, respectively, was recognized as grant income related to the TIA. The Company anticipates recognizing approximately $15,000,000 of additional grant income for the three months ended September 30, 2024. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company was reimbursed $1,793,364 (2023: $2,184,944) and $4,750,495 (2023: $4,244,605), respectively, for certain costs incurred.

Table of Contents

On August 18, 2023, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Perpetua Resources Idaho, Inc. was awarded an Ordnance Technology Initiative Agreement (“OTIA”) of up to $15.5 million under the Prototype Other Transaction authority of the DOD through the DOD Ordnance Technology Consortium (“DOTC”). The OTIA will build on research conducted under a previously announced Small Business Innovation Research Grant. The funding objective of the OTIA is to demonstrate a fully domestic antimony trisulfide supply chain using ore from the Stibnite Gold Project site. The OTIA designates funding to the Company to conduct activities to meet this objective, including obtaining additional core samples from the Project site, conducting a pilot plant study to produce mil-spec antimony trisulfide from the samples, designing a full-scale process circuit, and delivering a modular pilot plant for the DOD to use in further investigations. Under the OTIA, the Company will be reimbursed for these activities on a cost-plus fixed fee basis over the 24-month period of performance. The current estimated amount is $15.5 million, which is subject to adjustment by the DOD based on scope, costs, budget, or other factors as the program advances. Perpetua will be entitled to reimbursement for all costs incurred under the agreement, with the negotiated fee being 12%. The OTIA contains customary terms and conditions for OTIAs, including ongoing reporting obligations. During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2024, $35,270 and $2,595,747, respectively, was recognized as grant income related to the OTIA. The Company anticipates recognizing approximately $900,000 of additional grant income for the next three months ended September 30, 2024. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company received cash from this grant of $976,352 and $4,466,493 respectively, for reimbursement of certain costs incurred of $871,743 and $3,987,940 and 12% fee income of $104,609 and $478,553, respectively. During the three month and six months ended June 30, 2024, grant income includes $3,779 and $278,116, respectively, of 12% fee income earned on costs incurred. No grant income was earned during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Construction Readiness Activities

The Company is advancing construction readiness activities in parallel with the permitting process and these activities are reimbursable under the DPA funding outlined above. Recent updates include:

●

Appointed mining veteran Jonathan Cherry as new President and CEO,

●

Appointed Vice President of Projects to lead the Stibnite Gold Project,

●

Executed construction manager general contractor contract with Ames Construction, while advancing constructability reviews, value engineering studies, and detailed engineering for the Burntlog Route, the Company’s proposed access route, with Ames and the road design consultants,

●

Continued power line detailed scoping and engineering with Idaho Power, who has now engaged Kiewit, and identified long-lead items required for power line construction,

●

Ausenco was awarded Basic and Value Engineering Scope for the Stibnite Gold Project,

●

Hired key subject matter experts for the Owner’s Team to guide Basic Engineering and overall construction readiness, and

●

Ausenco and supporting consultants progressed basic and value engineering for their respective work streams.

Franco-Nevada Silver Royalty

On March 21, 2024, the Company entered into a royalty agreement with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Franco-Nevada Corporation (“Franco-Nevada”) pursuant to which Perpetua, through its subsidiaries, sold Franco-Nevada a royalty on the future payable silver production from the Project in exchange for a cash payment of $8.5 million. Silver represents less than 0.3% of projected life-of-mine revenue in the 2020 Feasibility Study. Under the agreement, Franco-Nevada will receive all of the payable silver by-product revenue over the life-of-mine, subject to the terms of the agreement. Perpetua intends to use the proceeds for general corporate purposes.

Nez Perce Tribe Litigation Settlement

On August 8, 2023, the Company and the Nez Perce Tribe (“Parties”) filed a final Settlement Agreement (“Settlement Agreement”) to resolve a Clean Water Act (“CWA”) lawsuit brought by the Nez Perce Tribe in 2019. The Settlement Agreement provides for total payments of $5.0 million by Perpetua over a four-year period, which includes $4.0 million of contributions by Perpetua to a South Fork Salmon Water Quality Enhancement Fund to be used by the Nez Perce Tribe to support water quality improvement projects in the South Fork Salmon River watershed, and $1.0 million of reimbursements to the Nez Perce Tribe for legal expenses. Perpetua intends to fund these payments from cash on hand or funds expected to be raised in connection with construction and operation of the Project. Following a 45-day review period by the United States Justice Department and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “U.S. EPA”), the U.S. District Court for the District of Idaho approved the Stipulation for Dismissal and entered a Judgment on October 2, 2023 which resulted in the CWA lawsuit being dismissed without prejudice. Under the Settlement Agreement, a dismissal with full prejudice will follow after completion of Perpetua’s required payments.

See Note 6(e) to the Interim Financial Statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 for more information regarding the CWA lawsuit and the terms of the settlement.

Liquidity

After giving effect to the receipt of the $8.5 million upfront payment from Franco-Nevada under the silver royalty on March 21, 2024, the Company’s latest liquidity forecast indicates that available cash resources are expected to be exhausted in the fourth quarter of 2024. Although the Company’s current capital resources and liquidity include up to $59.2 million in funding awarded under the modified TIA pursuant to Title III of the DPA, such funding is available only for the specified costs related to permitting, environmental baseline data monitoring, environmental and technical studies, and advancing construction readiness and is not available to fund the Company’s costs under its ASAOC obligations and certain corporate expenses, including under the Settlement Agreement. Although we expect the DPA funding to provide the Company with sufficient liquidity to complete permitting and environmental monitoring activities on the current timeline as well as additional liquidity to begin advancing construction readiness in 2024, due to costs of the ASAOC restoration obligations, payment obligations under the Settlement Agreement and other corporate expenses, we do not expect the Company will have sufficient assets to discharge its liabilities as they become due for at least 12 months from the date hereof. Absent additional financing, the Company would no longer be able to meet its ongoing obligations or progress critical permitting efforts. The Company continues to explore various funding opportunities, which may include the issuance of additional equity, new debt, or project specific debt; government funding; and/or other financing opportunities. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources” for more information.

NET LOSS	$	3,673,715	$	7,672,752	$	6,618,240	$	12,272,845

Net Loss

Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $3.7 million compared with a net loss of $7.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This $4.0 million decrease compared to the prior year period was primarily attributable to $5.0 million recognized for CWA settlement expense in the 2023 period and an increase of $4.2 million in exploration expense in the 2024 period offset by a $4.4 million increase in grant income and a $1.0 million increase in environmental liability expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Table of Contents

Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $6.6 million compared with a net loss of $12.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This $5.7 million decrease compared to the prior year period was primarily attributable to a $6.3 million increase in grant income, a $5.0 million decrease in CWA settlement expense, and a $0.3 million decrease in interest income offset by a $5.0 million increase in exploration expenses. As noted above, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company’s main focus was the continued evaluation and advancement of the Stibnite Gold Project.

Corporate Salaries and Benefits

This expense results from salaries and benefits of the employees that are not directly related to the exploration and evaluation of the Stibnite Gold Project, primarily corporate employees. Salaries and benefits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 were 38% and 29% higher than the 2023 comparative periods primarily due to increased share-based compensation and higher salaries.

Directors’ Fees

Each of the Corporation’s non-executive directors is entitled to annual base fees paid in quarterly installments, with the independent Lead Director, Chairs of Board Committees and Members of Board Committees receiving additional fees commensurate with each role. Directors’ fees are inclusive of cash fees and share-based compensation (deferred share units). This expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was 7% lower than the 2023 comparative period due to slightly lower share-based compensation. This expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was 13% higher than the 2023 comparative periods due to higher share-based compensation.

Exploration

This expense relates to all exploration and evaluation expenditures related to the Stibnite Gold Project, including labor, drilling, field operations, engineering, permitting, environmental, legal and sustainability costs. The Company’s exploration expenses of $10.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 were $4.2 million, or 66%, higher than the three months ended June 30, 2023 primarily due to a $4.0 million increase in engineering and a $0.4 million increase in consulting and labor costs. These increases were offset by a decrease of $0.5 million in permitting costs.

The Company’s exploration expenses of $17.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $5.0 million, or 41%, higher than the six months ended June 30, 2023 primarily due to a $6.5 million increase in engineering, $0.5 million increase in consulting and labor costs. These increases were offset by a decrease of $2.1 million in permitting costs. Additional details of expenditures incurred are as follows:


	For the three months ended June 30,				For the six months ended June 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023

TOTAL EXPLORATION	$	10,464,037	$	6,312,627	$	17,006,397	$	12,019,052

Environmental Liability Expense

This expense relates to the ASAOC signed in January 2021 to voluntarily address environmental conditions at the abandoned mine site. Cost estimates were developed with the use of engineering consultants, independent contractor quotes and the Company’s internal development team, and the timing of cash flows is based on the current schedule for early action items. In the three months ended June 30, 2024, the total cost estimate to complete Phase 1 early cleanup actions increased $1.0 million compared to the same period in 2023 driven by an increase in estimated costs for a required lake tank storage solution coupled with a negative $0.5 million recognized in the comparable period ended June 30, 2023 that resulted from a decrease in total estimated costs. The expense recognized during the six month periods ended June 30, 2024 was comparable to the same period in 2023. As of June 30, 2024, the estimate for the remaining environmental liability was $0.8 million, all of which is expected to be incurred in 2024.

Table of Contents

CWA Settlement Expense

This expense relates to the settlement with the Nez Perce Tribe to resolve the CWA litigation. The Settlement Agreement provides for total payments of $5.0 million by Perpetua over a four-year period. The Company recognized $5.0 million in the second quarter of 2023 for this settlement. No amount was recognized during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2024.

General and Administrative

This expense is predominantly insurance policies for the U.S. offices. This expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was 8% and 11% lower than the 2023 comparative periods primarily due to lower insurance premiums.

Professional Fees

This expense relates to the legal, accounting and consulting costs of the Corporation. This expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was 5% higher than the 2023 comparative period primarily due to an increase in legal fees. This expense for the six month ended June 30, 2024 was 23% higher than the 2023 comparative period primarily due to an increase in accounting and project financing related fees.

Shareholder and Regulatory

This expense relates to marketing, licenses and fees, and shareholder communications. This expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was 4% and 11% lower than the 2023 comparative periods primarily due to lower marketing costs.

Grant Income

This income results from funding grants awarded to the Company from the DOD to study the domestic production of military-grade antimony trisulfide and to complete environmental and engineering studies necessary to obtain a FEIS, a ROD, and other ancillary permits to sustain the domestic production of antimony trisulfide capability for defense energetic materials. Grant income increased $4.4 million and $6.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the comparable periods in 2023 due to the modified scope of the DPA grant in 2024.

Interest Income

This income results from interest received on the Company’s cash balances. Interest income decreased $120,766 and $266,692 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as a result of lower cash balances in 2024 compared to 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Capital resources of Perpetua Resources consist primarily of cash and liquid short-term investments. As of June 30, 2024, Perpetua Resources had cash and cash equivalents totaling approximately $1.9 million, approximately $7.6 million in receivables, principally from DOD grants, $0.8 million in prepaid assets, and $4.3 million in trade and other payables.

In December 2022, the Company was awarded an undefinitized TIA of up to $24.8 million under Title III of the DPA. On July 25, 2023, the TIA was definitized with the DOD, establishing the full not-to-exceed amount of $24.8 million and on May 2, 2024, the TIA was modified with an additional $34.4 million in funding, bringing the total amount of the TIA to $59.2 million. Under the funding agreement, Perpetua Resources may request reimbursement for certain costs incurred through June 16, 2025 related to environmental baseline data monitoring, environmental and technical studies and other activities related to advancing Perpetua’s construction readiness and permitting process for the Stibnite Gold Project, which includes reimbursement of employee wages for activities included in the scope of the TIA. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, $8.4 million and $11.0 million, respectively, was recognized as grant income related to the TIA. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company was reimbursed $4.8 million for certain costs incurred, and received reimbursement of an additional $3.9 million in July 2024 and anticipates receipt of $3.7 million in August 2024, under the TIA with respect to expenses incurred in the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Table of Contents

Perpetua Resources’ current liquidity needs relate to its plans to:

●

Continue to advance the regulatory process for the restoration and redevelopment of the Project;

●

Continue engaging with Project stakeholders to provide those stakeholders with the opportunity for a better understanding of the Project concepts and to provide a forum for such stakeholders to provide further input into the Project;

●

Continue to collect environmental baseline data in support of the ongoing regulatory processes related to permitting for site restoration and redevelopment of the Project;

●

Continue to advance the voluntary early cleanup actions under the ASAOC; and

●

Advance construction readiness for the Project.

Although the Company’s current capital resources and liquidity include up to $59.2 million in funding awarded under the modified TIA pursuant to Title III of the DPA, such funding is available only for the specified costs described above and is not available to fund the Company’s costs under its ASAOC obligations and certain corporate expenses, including payments under the Settlement Agreement. Although we expect the DPA funding to provide the Company with sufficient liquidity to complete permitting on the current timeline as well as additional liquidity to begin advancing construction readiness in 2024, due to costs of the ASAOC restoration obligations, payments under the Settlement Agreement and other corporate expenses, we do not expect the Company will have sufficient assets to discharge its liabilities as they become due for at least 12 months from the date hereof.

The Company’s latest liquidity forecast indicates that available cash resources for expenses not eligible for reimbursement under the DPA funding are expected to be exhausted in the fourth quarter of 2024. Absent additional financing, the Company would no longer be able to meet its ongoing obligations or progress critical permitting efforts. The Company continues to explore various funding opportunities, which may include the issuance of additional equity, new debt, or project specific debt; government funding; and/or other financing opportunities. On May 12, 2023, the Company entered into a Controlled Equity Offering^SM Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) providing for the sale by the Company, from time to time, of its common shares having an aggregate gross offering price of up to $20.0 million. As of June 30, 2024, $17.2 million remained available under the program. Future sales under the program are subject to certain conditions, including market conditions, and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional funds under the program, at acceptable share prices or at all.

We believe our plans outlined above to obtain sufficient funding will be successful although there is no certainty that these plans will result in needed liquidity for a reasonable period of time. However, our expectation of incurring ASAOC costs, contributions due under the Settlement Agreement and other costs in the foreseeable future that are not eligible for DPA funding reimbursement and the need for additional funding to further support the development of our planned operations, raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year after the date that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The future receipt of potential funding from equity, debt, pursuit of additional government funding opportunities and/or other means cannot be considered probable at this time because these plans are not entirely within our control as of the date hereof.

Our anticipated expenditures for the fiscal year 2024 are approximately $48.0 million, of which approximately $40.0 million are expected to be funded from the DPA reimbursements and the remainder from cash on hand. These expenditures include an estimated $11.2 million to fund permitting of the Stibnite Gold Project, $13.4 million for general corporate purposes, project financing and administrative costs, $17.6 million for engineering and design work, $4.4 million for field operations and approximately $1.4 million to advance early restoration under the ASAOC. These costs are subject to change due to cost over-runs, delays or other unbudgeted events, such as effects of inflation. Our long-term liquidity requirements will require project financing to fund the capital costs to develop the Project, which was estimated to be approximately $1,263 million as of the third quarter of 2020 according to the TRS.

Pursuant to the terms of the voluntary ASAOC executed in January 2021 with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “U.S. EPA”) and the United States Department of Agriculture, the Corporation agreed to dismiss its pending actions against the Forest Service without prejudice. The remaining parties to the ongoing legal proceeding agreed to stay the litigation and explore Alternative Dispute Resolution options through court-ordered mediation. On August 8, 2023, the Company and the Nez Perce Tribe filed a final Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) to resolve the CWA litigation. The parties jointly asked the court to approve the Settlement Agreement and dismiss the case without prejudice. The Settlement Agreement provides for total payments of $5.0 million by Perpetua over a four-year period. This includes $4.0 million of contributions by Perpetua to a South Fork Salmon Water Quality Enhancement Fund (the “Fund”) to be used by the Nez Perce Tribe to support water quality improvement projects in the South Fork Salmon River watershed and $1.0 million of reimbursements to the Nez Perce Tribe for legal expenses. Following a 45-day review period by the United States Justice Department and the U.S. EPA, the U.S. District Court for the District of Idaho approved the Stipulation for Dismissal and entered a Judgment on October 2, 2023, which resulted in the CWA lawsuit being dismissed without prejudice. Under the Settlement Agreement, a dismissal with full prejudice will follow after completion of Perpetua’s required payments. Once Perpetua has satisfied its payment obligations under the Settlement Agreement, the parties will submit a Stipulation of Dismissal with Prejudice to the court.

Certain of the Corporation’s property interests in the Project are also subject to existing judicial consent decrees due to Perpetua’s acquisition of several patented lode mining claims and mill sites which covers environmental liability and remediation responsibilities. Under the consent decrees, Perpetua is required to grant access to certain site areas by regulatory agencies and allow remediation activities to proceed if necessary and preserve the integrity of previous response actions. Several of the Corporation’s patented claims in the Hangar Flats and Yellow Pine properties are also subject to a consent decree which requires Perpetua to cooperate with the U.S. EPA and the USFS to implement appropriate response activities.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors and other cautionary statements described under the heading “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 which could materially affect our businesses, financial condition, or future results. Additional risks and uncertainties currently unknown to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or future results.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

None.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.

Pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act, issuers that are operators, or that have a subsidiary that is an operator, of a coal or other mine in the United States are required to disclose specified information about mine health and safety in their periodic reports. These reporting requirements are based on the safety and health requirements applicable to mines under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the “Mine Act”) which is administered by MSHA. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company and its subsidiaries were not subject to regulation by MSHA under the Mine Act and thus no disclosure is required under Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act.

Item 5. Other Information.

(a)

Recipients may purchase real property or equipment in whole or in part with federal funds under an award only with the prior approval of the Agreements Officer (except that additional approval is not required for such items included in the proposed/negotiated budget at the time of award). If the recipient purchases real property (other than land) or equipment with their own funding, and designates the real property or equipment as recipient cost share, the Government will have a financial interest in the real property or equipment. The financial interest of the Government is determined by the Federal participation in the project.

(b)	Equipment is defined as tangible nonexpendable personal property charged directly to the award having a useful life of more than one year and an acquisition cost of $5,000.00 or more per unit.

(c)

Title to all real property and equipment purchased by the recipient with federal funds under this agreement will vest with the Government throughout the agreement.

(1)

Guaranteed, ongoing responsiveness to DoD requirements for products and services that require use of the equipment.

(2)

If the recipient’s performance is not satisfactory the provisions listed above in paragraph (c)(1) through (c)(3) will apply.

(e)

During the time the real property or equipment is used on this program, the recipient shall make it available for use on other projects or programs, if such other use will not interfere with the work on this program. Use of the real property or equipment on other projects will be in the following order of priority:

(1)

Activities sponsored by DoD Components’ grants, cooperative agreements, or other assistance awards;

(2)

Activities sponsored by other Federal agencies’ grants, cooperative agreements, or other assistance awards;

(3)

Activities under Federal procurement contracts;

The use charges shall be treated as program income.

(f)	After Federal funding for the project ceases, or when the real property or equipment is no longer needed for the purposes of the project, the recipient may use the real property or equipment for other projects, insofar as:

(1)

There are federally sponsored projects for which the real property or equipment may be used. If the only use for the real property or equipment is for projects that have no Federal sponsorship, the recipient shall proceed with disposition of the real property or equipment, in accordance with paragraph (g) of this section.

(g)	Disposition. When an item of real property or equipment is no longer needed for Federally sponsored projects, the recipient shall proceed as follows:

(1)

If the property that is no longer needed is equipment (rather than real property), the recipient may wish to replace it with an item that is needed currently for the project. In that case, the recipient may use the original equipment as trade-in or sell it and use the proceeds to offset the costs of the replacement equipment, subject to the approval of the Agreements Officer.

(2)

The recipient may elect to retain title, without further obligation to the Federal Government, by compensating the Federal Government for that percentage of the current fair market value of the real property or equipment that is attributable to the Federal participation in the project or

(3)

The recipient may have an opportunity to retain title to the equipment provided the Government agrees to an exchange for financial resources, technical support, and/or deliverables that are of commensurate value to the Government. Examples include, but are not limited to the following:

As required by 35 U.S.C. 202(c)(5), the Government agrees it will not disclose such information to persons outside the Government without permission of the recipient.

(i)

Preference for United States Industry: Notwithstanding any other provision of this article, the recipient agrees that neither it nor any assignee will grant to any person the exclusive right to use or sell any subject inventions in the United States unless such person agrees that any products embodying the

FA8650-23-2-5522

Attachment 1B Revision 1

12 Feb 2024

subject invention or produced through the use of the subject invention will be manufactured substantially in the United States. However, in individual cases, the requirement for such an agreement may be waived by the Government upon a showing by the recipient or its assignee that reasonable but unsuccessful efforts have been made to grant licenses on similar terms to potential licensees that would be likely to manufacture substantially in the United States or that under the circumstances domestic manufacture is not commercially feasible.

(j)

March-in Rights: The recipient agrees that with respect to any subject invention in which it has acquired title, the Government has the right in accordance with the procedures in 37 CFR 401.6 and any supplemental regulations of the Government to require the recipient, an assignee or exclusive licensee of a subject invention to grant a nonexclusive, partially exclusive, or exclusive license in any field of use to a responsible applicant or applicants, upon terms that are reasonable under the circumstances, and if the recipient, assignee, or exclusive licensee refuses such a request the Government has the right to grant such a license itself if the Government determines that:

(1)

Such action is necessary because the recipient or assignee has not taken, or is not expected to take within a reasonable time, effective steps to achieve practical application of the subject invention in such field of use.

Employee acknowledges and agrees that, (i) Employee has been fully informed and is fully aware of Employee’s right to discuss any and all aspects of this Agreement with an attorney of Employee’s choice; (ii) Employee has had sufficient time to consider this Agreement before signing it; (iii) Employee is receiving, pursuant to this Agreement, consideration in addition to anything of value to which he is already entitled; (iv) neither the Company nor any other Company Party has provided any tax or legal advice to Employee regarding this Agreement, and Employee has had an adequate opportunity to receive sufficient tax and legal advice from advisors of his own choosing such that Employee enters into this Agreement voluntarily and with full understanding of the tax and legal implications thereof; and (v) Employee fully understands the final and binding effect of this Agreement, is signing this Agreement knowingly, voluntarily, and of his own free will, and understands and agrees to each of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Employee must return the signed Agreement to the Company, care of Jon Cherry, Chief Executive Officer, via e-mail to [***] so that it is received by the Company no later than 11:59 p.m. Central Time on the twenty-second (22^nd) day after Employee received this Agreement.

(b)Employee may revoke Employee’s signature on (and therefore the effectiveness of) this Agreement within the seven (7)-day period beginning on the date Employee signs this Agreement (such seven (7)-day period being referred to herein as the “Revocation Period”). To be effective, such revocation must be in writing signed by Employee and must be received by Jon Cherry, Chief Executive Officer, via e-mail to [***] so that it is received by the Company no later than 11:59 p.m. Central Time, on the last day of the Revocation Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Employee’s revocation of this Agreement service to revoke his voluntary resignation from employment. This Agreement shall become effective and irrevocable as of the eighth (8th) day after the Employee signs this Agreement (the “Effective Date”).

7.Return of Company Property. Employee agrees that, not later than the Separation Date, Employee shall return (without retaining copies of) all property belonging to the Company or any other Company Party, including the originals and all copies of any records, documents, electronically stored information, computer files or drives, or other materials which contain information about the Company’s business or were provided to Employee by the Company or any other Company Party in the course of Employee’s employment. As of the Separation Date, Employee agrees to perform a search of Employee’s personal electronic storage devices and return to the Company and delete all of the Company’s business and confidential and proprietary information from Employee’s personal electronic devices, including smartphones, tables, computers, and other storage devices.

8.Non-Disparagement. Employee agrees that Employee will not make any statement, oral or written, which Employee knows or reasonably should know to be (i) a disparaging or negative comment concerning the Company or any other person or entity that Employee knows to be a Company Party or (ii) otherwise detrimental to the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any other person Employee knows to be a Company Party, and Employee shall refrain from directing anyone else to make such disparaging, negative or detrimental comment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement prevents Employee from discussing or disclosing information about unlawful acts in the workplace, such as harassment or discrimination

or any other conduct that Employee has reason to believe is unlawful, or otherwise from making disclosures to any governmental agency, making disclosures permitted by the whistleblower provisions or applicable law, or making any statement required by law or compelled by legal process.

9.Trade Secrets and Confidential Information.

(a)Employee acknowledges and agrees that, in connection with Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee has obtained confidential information belonging to the Company or another Company Party. Employee agrees that any and all confidential information of any Company Party learned, obtained or developed by Employee during the course of Employee’s employment, whether developed by Employee alone or otherwise, shall be and is the exclusive property of the Company Parties. During the Transition Period and at all times thereafter, Employee agrees to use best efforts (a) to hold all confidential information of the Company Parties in the strictest confidence and (b) not to disclose, use, publicize, lecture upon or publish any confidential information of the Company Parties, in each case other than (i) to a Company Party or (ii) to the extent reasonable and necessary in connection with Employee’s duties on behalf of a Company Party during the Transition Period.

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or restrict Employee from lawfully: (i) initiating communications directly with, cooperating with, providing information to, causing information to be provided to, or otherwise assisting in an investigation by, any governmental authority regarding a possible violation of any law; (ii) responding to any inquiry or legal process directed to Employee from any such governmental authority; (iii) testifying, participating or otherwise assisting in any action or proceeding by any such governmental authority relating to a possible violation of law; or (iv) making any other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of any applicable law. Additionally, pursuant to the federal Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Employee shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (A) is made (1) in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney and (2) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; (B) is made to Employee’s attorney in relation to a lawsuit for retaliation against Employee for reporting a suspected violation of law; or (C) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Nothing in this Agreement requires Employee to obtain prior authorization before engaging in any conduct described in this paragraph.

10.No Waiver. No failure by either Party at any time to give notice of any breach by the other party of, or to require compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.

11.Applicable Law and Venue. This Agreement is entered into under, and shall be governed for all purposes by, the laws of the State of Idaho without reference to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Any dispute, controversy or claim between Employee and the Company or any Company Party arising out of out of or relating to this Agreement shall be brought in state or federal court, as applicable, located in Ada County, Idaho. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO

HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OR A COURT TRIAL IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

12.Interpretation. In this Agreement, (a) the use herein of the word “including” following any general statement, term or matter shall not be construed to limit such statement, term or matter to the specific items or matters set forth immediately following such word or to similar items or matters, whether or not non-limiting language (such as “without limitation”, “but not limited to”, or words of similar import) is used with reference thereto, but rather shall be deemed to refer to all other items or matters that could reasonably fall within the broadest possible scope of such general statement, term or matter; (b) references to Sections refer to Sections of this Agreement; (c) the words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole, and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited; (d) references in any Section or definition to any clause means such clause of such Section or definition; (e) reference to any agreement (including this Agreement), document or instrument means such agreement, document or instrument as amended or modified (including any waiver or consent) and in effect from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof; (f) reference to any law means such law as amended, modified, codified, reenacted or replaced and in effect from time to time; and (g) references to “or” shall be interpreted to mean “and/or”. The Section titles and headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of, or to affect the meaning or interpretation of, this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved against any party hereto, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise. On the contrary, this Agreement has been reviewed by each of the parties hereto and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to fairly accomplish the purposes and intentions of the parties.

13.Severability. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company and Employee hereby agree that any term or provision of this Agreement that renders such term or provision or any other term or provision hereof invalid or unenforceable in any respect shall be severable and shall be modified or severed to the extent necessary to avoid rendering such term or provision invalid or unenforceable, and such modification or severance shall be accomplished in the manner that most nearly preserves the benefit of the parties’ bargain hereunder.

14.Withholding of Taxes and Other Employee Deductions. The Company may withhold from all payments made pursuant to this Agreement all federal, state, local, and other taxes and withholdings as may be required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation or ruling.

15.Section 409A. The payments provided for in this Agreement are intended to be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Treasury regulations and interpretive guidance issued thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”) and shall be construed and administered in accordance with such intent. For purposes of Section 409A, each installment payment hereunder shall each be treated as a separate payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representations that the benefits provided under this Agreement are exempt from the requirements of Section 409A and in no event shall the Company or any other Company Party be liable for all or any portion of

any taxes, penalties, interest, or other expenses that may be incurred by Employee on account of non-compliance with Section 409A.

16.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including portable document format (.pdf) and facsimile counterparts), each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same Agreement.

17.Third-Party Beneficiaries; Assignment. Each Company Party that is not a signatory hereto shall be an intended third-party beneficiary of Employee’s covenants, representations, and release of claims set forth in this Agreement and shall be entitled to enforce such covenants, representations, and release as if a party hereto. The Company has the right to assign this Agreement, including to any successor, but Employee does not. This Agreement inures to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company, who are intended third party beneficiaries of this Agreement.

18.Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement represents the entire agreement between the Company and Employee regarding the subject matter herein and, except with respect to Section 8 of the Employment Agreement (which section shall survive the Separation Date) or to the extent specifically provided herein, supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, oral or written between the parties hereto concerning the subject matter hereof, including but not limited to the Employment Agreement. Subject to Section 13, this Agreement may not be changed orally but only by an agreement in writing agreed to and signed by Employee and the Company.

Exhibit A

CONFIRMING RELEASE AGREEMENT

This Confirming Release Agreement (the “Confirming Release”) is that certain Confirming Release referenced in Section 5 of the Transition and Separation Agreement and General Release of Claims (the “Separation Agreement”), entered into by and between PERPETUA RESOURCES IDAHO, INC. (the “Company”), and L. MICHAEL BOGERT (“Employee”). Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined have the meanings assigned to them in the Separation Agreement. In signing below, Employee agrees as follows:

1.Complete Release of Claims.

(a)For good and valuable consideration, including the Company’s agreement to permit Employee to remain employed following his notice of resignation pursuant to the terms of the Separation Agreement and the consideration set forth in Section 2 of the Separation Agreement, Employee forever releases and discharges the Company and each other Company Party from, and Employee waives, any and all claims, demands, liabilities and causes of action of any kind that Employee has or could have, whether known or unknown, whether statutory or common law, including any claim for salary, benefits, payments, expenses, costs, damages, penalties, compensation, remuneration, contractual entitlements, and all claims or causes of action relating to Employee’s employment relationship with any Company Party, the termination of such employment relationship, or any other acts or omissions related to any matter occurring or existing on or prior to the date that Employee signed this Confirming Release, including (i) claims arising under or for any alleged violation of: (A) the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (including as amended by the Older Worker Benefit Protection Act); (B) Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; (C) the Civil Rights Act of 1991; (D) Sections 1981 through 1988 of Title 42 of the United States Code; (E) the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”); (F) the Immigration Reform Control Act; (G) the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; (H) the Occupational Safety and Health Act; (I) the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; (J) the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; (K) the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010; (L) the Fair Labor Standards Act and any other federal, state, or local wage law; (M) the Idaho Claims for Wages Act and the Idaho Human Rights Act; (N) any other local, state or federal anti-discrimination or anti-retaliation law; (O) any other local, state or federal law, regulation or ordinance; (ii) claims arising out of or for any alleged violation of any public policy, contract, tort, or common law claim, or claim for defamation, emotional distress, fraud or misrepresentation of any kind, estoppel, breach of any implied duty of good faith and fair dealing, breach of implied or express contract, breach of fiduciary duty or wrongful discharge; (iii) any allegation for costs, fees, or other expenses including attorneys’ fees incurred in the matters referenced herein; (iv) any claim, whether direct or derivative, arising from, or relating to, Employee’s status as a holder of any shares or interests in any Company Party; and (v) any and all claims Employee may have arising as the result of any alleged breach of any contract (including under the Confidentiality Agreement), incentive compensation plan or agreement, restricted unit agreement, or equity-based compensation plan or agreement with any Company Party (collectively, the “Confirming Released Claims”). This Confirming Release is not intended to indicate that any such claims exist or that, if they do exist, they are meritorious. Rather, Employee is simply agreeing that, in exchange for the consideration received by Employee through the

Separation Agreement, any and all potential claims that Employee may have against the Company Parties, regardless of whether they actually exist, are expressly settled, compromised and waived. THIS RELEASE INCLUDES MATTERS KNOWN OR UNKNOWN AND ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE SOLE OR PARTIAL NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER GROSS OR SIMPLE) OR OTHER FAULT, INCLUDING STRICT LIABILITY, OF THE COMPANY OR COMPANY PARTIES.

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Confirming Release shall prohibit or restrict Employee from lawfully: (i) initiating communications directly with, cooperating with, providing information to, causing information to be provided to, or otherwise assisting in an investigation by, any governmental authority regarding a possible violation of any law; (ii) responding to any inquiry or legal process directed to Employee from any such governmental authority; (iii) testifying, participating or otherwise assisting in any action or proceeding by any such governmental authority relating to a possible violation of law; (iv) discussing or disclosing information about unlawful acts in the workplace, such as harassment or discrimination or any other conduct that Employee has reason to believe is unlawful; or (v) making any other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of any applicable law. Nothing in this Confirming Release requires Employee to obtain prior authorization before engaging in any conduct described in this paragraph, or to notify the Company that Employee has engaged in any such conduct. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee understands and agrees that Employee is waiving any and all rights to recover any monetary or personal relief or recovery from a Company Party as a result of any governmental agency proceeding or subsequent legal actions. Nothing herein waives Employee’s right to receive an award for information provided to a governmental agency. Further, in no event shall the Released Claims include (i) any claim to enforce Employee’s rights under the Separation Agreement; (ii) any claim to vested benefits under an employee benefit plan that is subject to ERISA and that cannot be released pursuant to ERISA; (iii) any claim for unemployment compensation benefits or workers’ compensation benefits; or (iv) any other claim that cannot legally be released under applicable law.

2.Satisfaction of Obligations; Receipt of Leaves, Bonuses, and Other Compensation. Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee has been paid in full all bonuses, been provided all benefits, been afforded all rights and otherwise received all wages, compensation, and other sums that Employee has been owed or ever could be owed by each Company Party (with the exception of any sums, if still unpaid on the date Employee signs this Confirming Release, to which Employee may be entitled pursuant to Section 2 of the Separation Agreement and, if still unpaid on the date Employee signs this Confirming Release, any unpaid base salary for the pay period in which the Separation Date occurred). Employee further acknowledges and agrees that Employee has received all leaves (paid and unpaid) that Employee has been entitled to receive from each Company Party.

3.Employee’s Acknowledgments. The Company hereby advises Employee to consult with an attorney of Employee’s choosing prior to signing this Confirming Release. In executing and delivering this Confirming Release, Employee expressly acknowledges that: (a) Employee has carefully read this Confirming Release and has had sufficient time (and at least twenty-one (21) days) to consider this Confirming Release before its execution and delivery to the Company; (b) Employee is receiving, pursuant to the Separation Agreement and Employee’s execution of this Confirming Release, consideration in addition to anything of value to which Employee is already

entitled; (c) Employee has been advised to discuss this Confirming Release with an attorney of Employee’s choice before signing this Confirming Release, and Employee has had an adequate opportunity to do so prior to executing this Confirming Release; (d) Employee fully understands the final and binding effect of this Confirming Release; the only promises made to Employee to sign this Confirming Release are those contained herein and in the Separation Agreement; and Employee is signing this Confirming Release knowingly, voluntarily and of Employee’s own free will, and Employee understands and agrees to each of the terms of this Confirming Release; and (e) the only matters relied upon by Employee and causing Employee to sign this Confirming Release are the provisions set forth in writing within this Confirming Release and the Separation Agreement.

4.Revocation Right. Employee may revoke the delivery (and therefore the effectiveness) of this Confirming Release within the seven-day period beginning on the date Employee executes this Confirming Release (such seven-day period being referred to herein as the “Confirming Release Revocation Period”). To be effective, such revocation must be in writing signed by Employee and must be received by the Company care of Jon Cherry, Chief Executive Officer, via e-mail to [***], so that it is received by the Company no later than 11:59 p.m. Central Time, on the last day of the Confirming Release Revocation Period. In the event Employee exercises his revocation right as set forth herein, this Confirming Release will be of no force or effect, Employee will not be entitled to the consideration set forth in Section 2 of the Separation Agreement and all other provisions of the Separation Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. This Confirming Release shall become effective and irrevocable as of the eighth (8th) day after Employee signs it (the “Confirming Release Effective Date”).

5.Return of Property. Employee represents and warrants that Employee has returned to the Company (without retaining copies of) all property belonging to the Company or any other Company Party, including the originals and all copies of any records, documents, electronically stored information, computer files or drives, or other materials which contain information about the Company’s business or were provided to Employee by the Company or any other Company Party in the course of Employee’s employment. Employee represents and warrants that Employee has performed a search of Employee’s personal electronic storage devices and returned to the Company and deleted all of the Company’s business and confidential and proprietary information from Employee’s personal electronic devices, including smartphones, tables, computers, and other storage devices.

EMPLOYEE HAS CAREFULLY READ THIS CONFIRMING RELEASE, FULLY UNDERSTANDS EMPLOYEE’S AGREEMENT, AND SIGNS IT AS EMPLOYEE’S OWN FREE ACT.
