On November 10, 2022, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement (the "Agreement") with Triple Flag Precious Metals Corp. ("Triple Flag") in which Triple Flag will acquire all the issued and outstanding common shares of Maverix pursuant to a Plan of Arrangement (the "Transaction"), positioning Triple Flag as the leading emerging senior streaming and royalty company.

Pursuant to the Transaction, the Company's shareholders may elect to receive either $3.92 in cash or 0.360 of a Triple Flag share per Maverix share held, representing share consideration of $3.92 per Maverix share based on the closing price of Triple Flag shares on November 9, 2022 of $10.89. The shareholder election will be subject to pro-ration such that the cash consideration will not exceed 15% of the total consideration and the share consideration will not exceed 85% of the total consideration. Maverix shareholders who do not elect to receive either Triple Flag shares or cash will be deemed to elect default consideration of 0.360 Triple Flag shares per Maverix share.

Under the terms of the Agreement, the Transaction will be carried out by way of a court-approved Plan of Arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act, and will require the approval of at least (i) 66 22/3% of the votes cast be shareholders of Maverix at a special meeting and (ii) if required, minority shareholder approval in accordance with Multilateral Instrument 61-101.

Upon completion of the Transaction, existing Triple Flag and Maverix shareholders would own approximately 77% and 23% of the combined company, respectively, on a fully diluted basis. Triple Flag shareholder Elliott Investment Management L.P. and Maverix shareholders, Newmont Corporation, Pan American Silver Corp. and Kinross Gold Corporation are all supportive of the combination, reflecting their belief in the value and potential of the combined company.

Newmont Corporation and Pan American Silver Corp., together with all of the officers and directors of Maverix, collectively control approximately 57% of the common shares of Maverix on a fully-diluted basis and have entered into voting and support agreements pursuant to which they have agreed to vote their shares in favour of the Transaction.

Completion of the Transaction is also subject to regulatory and court approvals and other customary closing conditions. The Agreement includes customary provisions, including non-solicitation by Maverix of alternative transactions, a right of Triple Flag to match superior proposals and an approximately $24 million termination fee, payable under certain circumstances.

Complete details of the Transaction will be included in a management information circular to be delivered to Maverix shareholders in the coming weeks. Subject to receiving requisite court approval, the special meeting of shareholders of Maverix is expected to be held in early January 2023 and the Transaction is also expected to close in January 2023.

Given the ongoing uncertainty relating to the Company's Omolon royalty, Maverix is continuing to exclude attributable Omolon GEOs from its outlook for the second half of 2022. Excluding any contribution from the Omolon royalty in the second half, we continue to expect 28,000 to 31,000 attributable GEOs for 2022.

On November 2, 2022, Polymetal International plc ("Polymetal") announced that it is on track to meet its full year production guidance for fiscal 2022. In Q3, the Omolon mine produced approximately 56,000 ounces of gold and 100,000 ounces of silver. Polymetal also announced it has successfully completed the restructuring of its sales channels and started to unwind accumulated inventory. In late Q3, export sales resumed and Polymetal's management team expects the gap between production and sales to be closed by the end of the year. The conflict between Russia and Ukraine and any restrictive actions that have or may be taken in response thereto, such as sanctions, export and or currency controls, have caused and could have further negative impacts on Polymetal's ability to continue operation of Omolon and could further inhibit Polymetal's ability to make payments to the Company. Maverix continues to work with Polymetal to effect payment of royalties from Omolon in a way that does not breach any relevant sanctions.

On October 27, 2022, Navarre Minerals Ltd. ("Navarre") announced that it had received notification from the Queensland Government of the final approval for an amendment to Mt Carlton's Environmental Authority which allows for commencement of mining operations at the Mt Carlton United ("MCU") gold-silver-copper deposit, located approximately 4 kilometres from the Mt Carlton processing facility. This approval is a significant milestone, securing the last hurdle to enable mining activities to proceed immediately, with first ore from the project expected to be delivered to the Mt Carlton processing facility in December 2022. The higher-grade material at MCU will provide the underlying driver for the improvement in production and costs. The MCU project is one of five potential satellite open pit deposits identified within the tenement package included in Navarre's acquisition of the Mt Carlton operation in October 2021. Since acquiring Mt Carlton, Navarre's commitment to invest in resource definition and exploration drilling has resulted in significant growth of the Mt Carlton mineral inventory, particularly at MCU.

On October 31, 2022, Elevation Gold Mining Corp. ("Elevation") announced the results from its recently completed reverse circulation resource definition and expansion drilling program at its Moss mine, which continues to demonstrate the high expansion potential of the mine. Recent drilling in the West Pit and Center Pit continued to intersect multiple stockwork vein zones in the hanging and footwalls to the main Moss and Ruth Veins confirming broadening of the system to the west and the presence of significant gold in the Ruth Vein beneath the Center Pit. A new reverse circulation drilling program will begin in November 2022 to further test mineralization near Center Pit and West Pit.

On October 26, 2022, Agnico Eagle Mines Limited ("Agnico Eagle") announced that exploration drilling at Hope Bay totaled 76,200 metres during the first nine months of 2022 and it is anticipated that approximately 100,000 metres will be completed in 2022. Most of this drilling was done at Doris, where three drill rigs are currently operating at surface and three rigs operating underground. Recent results continue to confirm and extend high-grade mineralization at depth. At Madrid, drilling continues to ramp up with two rigs now operating on surface. A second drill contractor has been mobilized to site to increase drilling capacity moving forward. Farther south in the Hope Bay belt at the Boston deposit, camp refurbishment has been completed and the site is ready for exploration drilling in 2023.

The Company is pleased to announce that its Board of Directors has approved the payment of the quarterly cash dividend of $0.0125 per common share. The dividend will be paid on or about December 15, 2022, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on November 30, 2022.

The dividend is designated as an "eligible dividend" for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada). Dividends paid by Maverix to shareholders outside Canada (non-resident investors) will be subject to Canadian non-resident withholding taxes. The declaration, timing, amount and payment of future dividends remains at the discretion of Maverix's Board of Directors.

Brendan Pidcock, P.Eng., is Vice President, Technical Services for Maverix, and a qualified person under National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101"), has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical disclosure contained in this news release.

Maverix is a gold-focused royalty and streaming company with a globally diversified portfolio of over 140 assets. Maverix's mission is to increase per share value by acquiring precious metals royalties and streams. Its shares trade on both the NYSE American and the TSX under the symbol "MMX".

Information contained or referenced in this press release or in the documents referenced herein concerning the properties, technical information and operations of Maverix has been prepared in accordance with requirements and standards under Canadian securities laws, which differ from the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K ("S-K 1300"). The terms "mineral resource" and "inferred mineral resource" used in this press release or in the documents incorporated by reference herein are mining terms as defined in accordance with NI 43-101 under guidelines set out in the Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves adopted by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Council. While the terms are substantially similar to the same terms defined under S-K 1300 there are differences in the definitions. Accordingly, there is no assurance any mineral resources that the Company may report under NI 43-101 will be the same as resource estimates prepared under the standards adopted under S-K 1300. Because the Company is eligible for the Multijurisdictional Disclosure System adopted by the SEC and Canadian Securities Administrators, the Company is not required to present disclosure regarding its mineral properties in compliance with S-K 1300. Accordingly, certain information contained in this press release concerning descriptions of mineralization and mineral resources under these standards may not be comparable to similar information made public by US companies subject to reporting and disclosure requirements of the SEC.

Maverix has included certain performance measures in this news release that do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") including adjusted net income, total GEOs sold, average realized gold price per GEO, average cash cost per GEO, cash operating margin and cash flow from operating activities excluding changes in non-cash working capital. Adjusted net income is calculated by excluding the effects of the non-cash cost of sales related to the prepaid gold interests, non-cash change in fair value of the prepaid gold interests, other income/expenses, impairment charges, gains/(losses) on sale or amendments of royalty and streams and unusual non-recurring items. The Company believes that adjusted net income is a useful measure of the Company's performance because it adjusts for items which may not relate to or have a disproportionate effect on the period in which they are recognized, impact the comparability of our core operating results from period to period, are not always reflective of the underlying operating performance of our business and/or are not necessarily indicative of future operating results. The Company's royalty revenue and silver sales are converted to a GEO basis by dividing the royalty revenue and silver sales for a period by the average gold price based on the LBMA Gold Price PM Fix per ounce for the same respective period. These GEOs when combined with the gold ounces sold from the Company's gold streams and prepaid gold interests equal total GEOs sold. Average realized gold price per GEO is calculated by dividing the total revenue by the GEOs sold. Average cash cost per GEO is calculated by dividing the total cost of sales, less depletion less non-cash cost of sales of the prepaid gold interests, by the GEOs sold. In the precious metals mining industry, these are common performance measures but do not have any standardized meaning. Cash operating margin is calculated by subtracting the average cash cost per GEO sold from the average realized gold price per GEO sold. The Company presents cash operating margin as it believes that certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance in comparison to other companies in the precious metal royalty and streaming sector who present results on a similar basis. The Company has also used the non-IFRS measure of operating cash flows excluding changes in non-cash working capital. This measure is calculated by adding back the decrease or subtracting the increase in changes in non-cash working capital to or from cash provided by (used in) operating activities. The presentation of these non-IFRS measures is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Other companies may calculate these non-IFRS measures differently. The 2022 forecast herein assumes a gold price of $1,750 per ounce and a silver price of $21.00 per ounce. The forecast was derived using information that is available in the public domain as at the date hereof, which included guidance and estimates prepared and issued by management of the operators of the mining operations in which Maverix holds an interest. The forecast is sensitive to the performance and operating status of the underlying mines. None of the information has been independently verified by Maverix and may be subject to uncertainty. There can be no assurance that such information is complete or accurate. Maverix's business, operations, financial condition, and financial outlook could be materially adversely affected by the continued impact of the COVID-19 global health pandemic. At this time, Maverix cannot reasonably estimate the duration of any potential business disruptions, impact to underlying operations that Maverix holds an interest in or any related financial impact that is related to or caused by COVID-19.

Specifically, as a royalty or stream holder or prospective royalty or stream holder, Maverix has limited, if any, access to properties included in its asset portfolio and the Royalty Portfolio. Additionally, Maverix may from time to time receive operating information from the owners and operators of the properties, which it is not permitted to disclose to the public.

Maverix's royalty, stream or other interests often cover less than 100% and sometimes only a portion of the publicly reported mineral reserves, mineral resources, and production of a property.

All amounts are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.
