Toronto, Oct. 25, 2024 - Florida Canyon Gold Inc. (TSXV: FCGV) ("FCGI" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the shareholders of the Company (the "Shareholders") have approved a special resolution (the "Arrangement Resolution") at the special meeting of Shareholders held earlier today (the "Meeting") authorizing a plan of arrangement under section 192 of the Canada Business Corporations Act (the "Arrangement"), as previously announced on July 29, 2024, pursuant to which Integra Resources Corp. ("Integra") will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of FCGI (each, a "Share").

The purpose of the Meeting was to consider and vote upon the Arrangement Resolution authorizing the Arrangement and approving the transactions contemplated in the arrangement agreement dated July 28, 2024 between the Company and Integra, as amended on September 3, 2024 (the "Arrangement Agreement"), pursuant to which, among other things, Integra will acquire all of the issued and outstanding Shares by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement, and in exchange, the Shareholders will be entitled to receive 0.467 of a common share of Integra for each Share held.

A total of 101,922,768 Shares were represented in person or by proxy at the Meeting, representing approximately 73.87% of the issued and outstanding Shares.


Approval of the Arrangement

The Arrangement Resolution was overwhelmingly approved at the Meeting by (i) 99.71% of the votes cast by Shareholders voting in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting, and (ii) 99.58% of the votes cast by the minority Shareholders voting in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting, excluding the Shares required to be excluded pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101").
