Nighthawk Gold Corp. (“Nighthawk” or the “Company”) (TSX: NHK; OTCQX: MIMZF) is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced bought deal private placement (the “Offering”). Pursuant to the Offering, Nighthawk issued: (i) 11,250,000 common shares of the Company (“HD Shares”) at a price of C$0.40 per HD Share, and (ii) 14,821,913 common shares of the Company issued on a flow-through basis (the “FT Shares”) at a price of C$0.46 per FT Share, for aggregate gross proceeds of C$11,318,080, which reflects a partial exercise of the Underwriter’s Option.

The Qualifying Expenditures shall be renounced to the purchasers of the FT Shares effective on or before December 31, 2023.
The Offering is subject to final acceptance of the Toronto Stock Exchange. The securities issued pursuant to the Offering shall be subject to a four-month plus one day hold period in Canada commencing on the Closing Date under applicable Canadian securities laws.
