TORTOLA, British Virgin Islands, Nov. 9, 2018 - Sailfish Royalty Corp. (TSX-V: FISH) (the "Company" or "Sailfish") is pleased to report the closing of the previously announced restructuring (the "Stream Restructuring") of the Company's gold stream on the San Albino gold project ("San Albino") pursuant to a master agreement between the Company, Golden Reign Resources Inc. ("Golden Reign"), Marlin Gold Mining Ltd. ("Marlin"), Oro Gold de Mexico S.A. de C.V., Nicoz Resource S.A. ("Nicoz") and Gold Belt, S.A. ("Gold Belt") dated August 3, 2018 (the "Master Agreement").

In addition, the Company has entered into or will enter into certain assignment, option and royalty agreements as partial consideration to be paid to the Company in consideration for entering into the Amended and Restated Gold Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to such agreements, Marlin will: (i) assign to the Company its 1% net smelter return royalty on the Parral 2 claims on the La Cigara project and its 1.5% net smelter return royalty on the majority of the concessions at at the El Compas project; and (ii) grant an option to the Company to purchase its Gavilanes property in Mexico to a designee of the Company.

The parties to the Master Agreement also agreed upon the following terms:

• Marlin and Oro Gold will make cash payments to the Company in respect of any amounts recovered by Oro Gold in certain lawsuits Oro Gold has filed against the Mexican tax authority for the purpose of obtaining previously denied Mexican value added tax refunds for an aggregate of 37,379,097 Mexican pesos (28,900,301 Mexican pesos (US$1,417,376) of which have already been received by Oro Gold), before certain interest and inflation adjustments and applicable legal fees;
  
  
• the Company has extinguished Golden Reign's prepayment liability of approximately US$1.1 million associated with the existing gold stream on San Albino; and
