Mineros Announces Results of Ordinary Meeting of General Shareholders Assembly, 2023 Dividends, Filing of Annual Information Form, and Release of Sustainability Report

At the Meeting, the General Shareholders Assembly approved the distribution of the Company's profits by way of dividend, as set forth in Table 1 below. Shareholders will be entitled to receive payment of an ordinary dividend in respect of each common share held, payable in four equal quarterly installments of $0.0175, representing a total distribution of $0.07 per share, or $20,981,618 in total. Dividend payments do not include any interest payments.

The Canadian record dates and Canadian/Colombian payment dates are set out in Table 2.

Table 2. Canadian Record Dates and Canadian/Colombian Payment Dates.

Payment of each dividend amount will be made on each payment date in Colombian pesos at the official representative market rate (TRM) in effect on the respective payment date, which may in some cases be converted into local currency at the official foreign exchange rate on the date of each payment. In general, under the Colombian Tax Code dividends and distributions out of profits taxed at the corporate level to non-resident shareholders are subject to a 10% withholding tax. However, the 10% withholding tax is reduced to 5% under the Tax Treaty between Colombia and Canada if the shareholder is a company with a participation larger than 10% in the Colombian company distributing the dividend. The reduced tax rate is only applicable if the beneficial owner of the dividend is a Canadian resident company. If the beneficial owner is an individual, no reduced tax rate will apply. The withholding tax must be withheld from the gross distribution and paid to the Colombian tax authorities. Notwithstanding the above, this withholding is not applicable if the profits taxed at the corporate level out of which the dividends are paid were generated before fiscal year 2017 according to article 246-1 of the Colombian Tax Code.

The profit distribution proposal approved by the Board represents a distribution of 51% of the Company's profit for the year before non-cash impairment losses of $41,364,359 reported in the financial statements under the line "(Impairment) reversal of assets" in fiscal 2022. This is in line with the Company's dividend policy, which is to pay in dividends at least 15% of the net income of the prior fiscal year, provided that this allows, in good faith, to maximize the long-term value of the Company.

Table 3 below summarizes the results of each resolution that was voted on at the Meeting, except for the advisory vote on individual directors, the results of which are set out in Table 4.
