VEGA MINING ANNOUNCES SHARE CONSOLIDATION

VANCOUVER, BC, April 17, 2024 /CNW/ - Vega Mining Inc. (the "Company") announces that the previously announced consolidation of the Company's outstanding common shares on the basis of two (2) pre-consolidation shares for one (1) post-consolidation share (the "Consolidation") has become effective on April 16, 2024 (the "Effective Date").

As a result of the Consolidation, the number of issued and outstanding common shares of the Company has been reduced from 45,039,055 to approximately 22,519,528, subject to adjustment for rounding (the "Post-Consolidation Shares"). No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Consolidation. If a holder of Shares would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share, any fractional Post-Consolidation Share that is less than ½ of a share shall be cancelled and any fractional Post-Consolidation Share that is at least ½ of a share shall be rounded up to one whole share. No cash consideration will be paid in respect of fractional shares. The exercise or conversion price and/or the number of Post-Consolidation Shares issuable under any of the Company's outstanding convertible securities will be proportionately adjusted in connection with the Consolidation.

The new CUSIP number for the Company's Post-Consolidation Shares is 922509302 and the new ISIN is CA9225093025.

Registered shareholders of record as of the Effective Date will receive a letter of transmittal from Odyssey Trust Company, the transfer agent for the Company, describing the process by which shareholders may obtain new share certificates or Direct Registration System (DRS) advices representing their Post-Consolidation Shares. Until surrendered, each share certificate representing pre-consolidation shares will represent the number of whole Post-Consolidation Shares to which the holder is entitled as a result of the Consolidation. Shareholders who hold their shares through a broker or other intermediary and do not have shares registered in their name will not be required to complete a letter of transmittal. The letter of transmittal will also be filed under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
