Perseus UK Depositary Interest and Corporate Nominee Facility

PERTH, Aug. 19, 2019 - On April 18, 2016 Perseus Mining Ltd. (ASX/TSX: PRU) (“Perseus”) issued ordinary shares and warrants to shareholders of Amara Mining plc pursuant to a scheme of arrangement between Perseus and Amara that took effect on that date.

Perseus then arranged for the establishment of a Depositary Interest Facility and a Corporate Sponsored Nominee Facility to facilitate settlement of the share issue to Amara shareholders that were UK residents and further trading by such shareholders. The initial term of the Facilities was 12 months from the effective date of the scheme of arrangement. The Facilities were subsequently extended until September 30, 2019.

Shareholders are advised as follows:

1. The Corporate Sponsored Nominee Facility will be terminated with effect from September 30, 2019.
