Dundee Precious Metals Completes Sale of MineRP

TORONTO, May 03, 2021 - Dundee Precious Metals Inc. (TSX: DPM) ("DPM" of "the Company") today announced that DPM and the other shareholders (collectively, "the Vendors") have closed the sale of 100% of MineRP Holdings Inc. ("MineRP") to Epiroc Canada MineRP Holding Inc., a subsidiary of Epiroc Rock Drills AB ("Epiroc").

Consideration for DPM's 73.7% equity interest in MineRP and the repayment of DPM shareholder loans consists of (i) approximately $41 million in cash on closing subject to a working capital adjustment following closing (the "Cash Proceeds") and (ii) potential additional proceeds in the form of an earn-out conditional on the achievement of certain revenue targets by MineRP in 2021 and 2022. The Cash Proceeds are net of certain amounts to be placed in escrow on closing to secure against any post closing adjustments related to working capital and any potential breaches in representations and warranties for a period of 60 days and 2 years, respectively.

"We are pleased to conclude the sale of MineRP following our investment in this technology in support of our innovation strategy. The proceeds from this transaction, together with potential additional proceeds under the earn-out, will further strengthen our balance sheet and support our mining business going forward," said David Rae, President and Chief Executive Officer of Dundee Precious Metals. "We would like to wish MineRP and Epiroc well in taking the business to the next level."
