Osisko Highlights Achievements from 2019

• Horne 5 Silver Stream: On February 27, Osisko completed a silver stream with Falco Resources Ltd. (“Falco”) for up to 100% of the silver produced from the Horne 5 project located in Québec, Canada.  Deposits to be made by Osisko under the stream agreement are based on milestones related to project advancement.  Once in production, the Horne 5 silver stream has the potential to deliver approximately 30,000 gold-equivalent ounces (“GEOs”) to Osisko annually, ranking it second only to the Canadian Malartic royalty in Osisko’s royalties and streams portfolio.  The creation of the Horne 5 silver stream in 2019 represented a rare opportunity to gain access to meaningful life-of-mine stream in a premier mining jurisdiction without any encumbrances such as buy-backs, production thresholds or production caps.  Throughout 2020, Falco is expected to continue advancing its project through the permitting process while maintaining its positive dialogue with certain key stakeholders, including the government of Québec.
• Share Repurchase: On June 25, Osisko announced a repurchase of 12,385,717 common Osisko shares from a jointly owned subsidiary of certain investment funds managed by Orion Resource Partners (“Orion”) representing a total value of $174.6 million.  Payment from Osisko to Orion consisted of a combination of cash and the direct transfer of other equities held by Osisko.  In a concurrent transaction, Osisko also agreed to sell to separate entities managed by Orion certain other equity securities held by Osisko for cash.  The share repurchase transaction was an elegant solution that allowed the Company to help Orion reduce its ownership percentage to the benefit of all remaining shareholders, while also providing Osisko with an exit opportunity for certain of its equity holdings.
• Sable Resources Investment Agreement: On August 29, Osisko and Sable Resources Ltd. (“Sable”) entered into a strategic investment agreement whereby Osisko agreed to support Sable’s exploration activities over a four-year period in exchange for a net smelter return (“NSR”) royalty of up to 2% covering all of Sable’s properties over the period.  In backing Sable’s excellent team of geoscientists, the strategic investment in Sable provided Osisko with royalty exposure to (among others) over 440,000 hectares in northern Mexico and over 58,000 hectares in the San Juan Province of Argentina.  Osisko’s investment in Sable also included a right of first refusal (“ROFR”) on all future royalty and streaming transactions by Sable.  In in the first quarter of 2020, Sable is expected to drill its 100%-owned Vinata project in Mexico.  Sable also received permits for six targets at its Don Julio cluster in Argentina as well as environmental and community permits for its Scorpius Project near Ayacucho Peru, which will allow it to systematically test all priority targets throughout the year. 
• Mantos Blancos Stream Enhancement: On September 3, Osisko Bermuda Limited (“OBL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, announced an agreement with Mantos Copper S.A. (“Mantos Copper”) to enhance its existing silver stream on the Mantos Blancos copper mine in Chile.  The stream amendment transaction was part of a comprehensive financing which will enable Mantos Copper to expand the Mantos Blancos sulphide concentrator plant.  Benefits to Osisko include (i) additional exposure to a long-life asset with further production upside and mine life extension potential; (ii) immediately increases cash margin per ounce and annual cash flow from the stream; and (iii) increases the value of OBL’s existing silver stream on Mantos Blancos.  During 2020, Mantos Copper is expected to continue advancing the Mantos Blancos expansion with expected completion in mid-2021.
• Barkerville Acquisition: On November 21, Osisko agreed to acquire 100% of Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd., owner of the Cariboo gold project in central British Columbia, Canada.  The addition of the Cariboo project to Osisko’s portfolio adds a potentially world-class brownfield asset in Canada with a high-quality mineral resource, significant exploration upside, and substantial tailings and mining infrastructure in place. In 2020, one of Osisko’s primary objectives will be to obtain third-party funding for the Cariboo project while concurrently using the Company’s expertise in exploration, permitting, mine development, and mine finance to keep progressing the project and adding value.
• Bralorne NSR Royalty: On November 21, Osisko entered into an investment agreement whereby it purchased a 1.2% NSR royalty from Talisker Resources Ltd. (“Talisker”) on the historic Bralorne gold project located in southwestern British Columbia, Canada.  Osisko’s investment in Talisker also included a ROFR on royalty buybacks, and on royalty and stream financings relating to Talisker’s land package of over 226,000 hectares in British Columbia.  In 2020 Talisker is expected to pursue confirmatory drilling and exploration work at Bralorne while developing new targets at the Spences Bridge property.   
• Pine Point Royalty: On December 3, Osisko and Osisko Metals Incorporated (“Osisko Metals”) announced an agreement pursuant to which Osisko agreed to purchase a 1.5% NSR royalty on Osisko Metals’ Pine Point project located in Canada’s Northwest Territories.  Pine Point is a brownfields open-pittable, zinc-lead development asset containing an Inferred Mineral Resource of 52.4 million tonnes grading 4.64% zinc and 1.83% lead (6.47% ZnEq), making it the largest pit-constrained zinc camp in Canada.  In 2020, Osisko Metals is expected to continue project studies, exploration, and community engagement work at Pine Point. 
• Santana Royalty: On December 6, Osisko and Minera Alamos Inc. (“Minera Alamos”) announced a royalty transaction that fully-funded the permitted Santana project to production.  Santana, located in Sonora State, Mexico, is a simple heap leach gold project with very low capital requirement that could potentially be put into production in a short timeframe of approximately 8 months.  Once in production, Santana could provide Osisko with 1,000 to 2,000 GEOs per year with the potential to increase with further exploration upside.  Minera Alamos is expected to begin construction of the Santana project the first half of 2020.
• Capital Returned to Shareholders: As of today’s date, in addition to the above achievements, Osisko has returned approximately $336 million to shareholders in the form of dividends and share buybacks since its inception in 2014.  In 2019 alone, Osisko distributed approximately $30 million in dividends and over $184 million through share buybacks.
