New York, NY – January 7, 2025 – NatGold Digital Ltd. (“NatGold Digital” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce a new agreement with Great Eagle Gold Corp. (CSE: GEGC) (OTC Pink: GEGCF) (FSE: GI8) that supersedes their previous Collaborative Business Development Agreement, dated January 26, 2024. This updated partnership strengthens their shared commitment to successfully launching NatGold Digital’s revolutionary digital mining ecosystem, which tokenizes Certified NatGold Resources into NatGold Tokens, providing investors worldwide with access to a secure, sustainably produced, and non-dilutive form of gold ownership.

As the founder and global operator of the NatGold digital mining ecosystem, NatGold Digital is responsible for demand-side market development, while Great Eagle Gold focuses exclusively on the supply side, solidifying its role as a premier gold miner within the ecosystem. Together, both companies are positioned at the forefront of three major financial investment trends: gold, the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA), and sustainable investments.

Agreement Highlights: Strengthened Cooperation and Defined Roles

The new agreement formalizes a long-term partnership with clearly defined areas of cooperation:

• Shared Expertise and Resources – Both companies will contribute geological, technical, and market insights to ensure the successful development and scaling of the NatGold digital mining ecosystem.
• Orderly Market Liquidation – NatGold Tokens allocated to both companies will be introduced to the market in a responsible manner, ensuring price stability and supporting natural market price equilibrium.
• Advocacy for Legislation – The parties will work together to educate governments globally on the economic and environmental benefits of digital gold mining, encouraging wider adoption of tokenization and increasing participation in the NatGold ecosystem.
• Capital Markets Engagement – Joint investor presentations will ensure stakeholders fully understand the value and potential of the NatGold ecosystem.

Exclusive Rights and Priority Queuing Benefits

Under the new agreement, Great Eagle Gold Corp. is granted exclusive rights to supply mineral rights titles for the first 2.5 million NatGold Tokens, ensuring that only Certified NatGold Resources provided by Great Eagle will be tokenized during this phase.

Beyond this initial tokenization, Great Eagle will maintain priority queuing rights for five years, securing preferential access to future tokenization projects. This exclusive arrangement positions Great Eagle as the preferred mining company within the NatGold ecosystem while providing NatGold Digital with a stable and reliable supply of tokenizable resources.

Mutual Benefits and Share Issuance Terms

To recognize the value this partnership brings to both companies, Great Eagle Gold Corp. has agreed to issue 5 million common shares to NatGold Digital Ltd. in two tranches:

• First Tranche: 2.5 million shares will be issued within 30 days of Great Eagle successfully tokenizing its first qualifying mineral rights title with NatGold Digital.
• Second Tranche: An additional 2.5 million shares will be issued within 30 days of tokenizing sufficient mineral rights to mint 2.5 million NatGold Tokens, provided this milestone is reached within 12 months of the agreement’s effective date.

These shares will be issued under applicable regulatory exemptions and subject to standard hold periods, ensuring compliance with securities regulations.

Strategic Impact and Market Potential

The updated agreement reinforces the foundation for both companies to capitalize on the growing global demand for eco-friendly gold investments. NatGold Digital’s pioneering tokenization technology, combined with Great Eagle’s ability to supply Certified NatGold Resources-compliant gold deposits, positions the partnership for significant long-term success.

Andrew Fletcher, President of Great Eagle Gold Corp., stated: “Our strengthened partnership with NatGold Digital positions us to lead the supply side of NatGold Digital’s revolutionary digital gold mining ecosystem. The initial tokenization exclusivity, together with priority queuing benefits, offers Great Eagle significant competitive advantages.”

Anthony Wile, CEO and President of NatGold Digital, added: “This agreement cements a strong and lasting partnership between NatGold Digital and Great Eagle Gold. By clearly defining our roles, we are accelerating the adoption of eco-friendly digital gold mining and positioning NatGold Tokens as a premier digital asset in the evolving real-world asset tokenization trend. The exclusivity rights and priority queuing benefits provide both companies with a strategic advantage as we execute on our vision to redefine gold investment for the digital age.”
