The financing consists of a royalty percentage of 3% with a buy-back option after the recovery of the first stage royalty, $10 million, (and prior to the 7th anniversary of the definitive agreement execution) and a payment of $2.75 million reducing the liability to 1.5% for the life of mine. The capitalised borrowing costs represent those costs directly attributable to securing this funding package and will be amortised over the period in which the first stage royalty of $10 million will be repaid. The unexpired interest component will be recognised over the life of mine in line with each of the scheduled periodic repayments to Regal Resources Royalties Fund. A discounted cash flow method using a discount rate of 5.455% (2021: n/a) was used to capture the net present value of the revenues for the life of mine as determined in the May 2023 Update of the BFS. 3 Deferred acquisition costs represent those costs directly attributable to the acquisition of leading European tungsten producer Saloro S.L.U. from global investment manager, Oaktree. These costs will be amortised over the life of mine. 6.
