Tincorp Announces Credit Facility and Cancels Private Placement

Vancouver, January 8, 2024 - Tincorp Metals Inc. (TSXV: TIN) (OTCQX: TINFF) ("Tincorp" or the "Company") announces that it has entered into an interest-free unsecured credit facility agreement with no conversion features (the "Agreement") with Silvercorp Metals Inc. (the "Lender"), an insider which holds 29.32% of the Company's shares, for a credit facility of US$1,000,000 (the "Facility"). The Facility will provide financial flexibility to fund the Company's operations and provide general working capital.

Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company is entitled to draw down up to US$1,000,000 at any time. The Facility has a maturity date of January 31, 2025, and contains a voluntary prepayment option, allowing the Company to prepay the Facility at any time without penalty. The Company will make an initial drawdown of US$500,000 and, upon receiving final approval from the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV"), issue 350,000 fully paid and non-assessable shares of the common stock of the Company (the "Bonus Shares") to the Lender in consideration for granting the Facility.

The Bonus Shares will be subject to a four-month hold period from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities laws.

The issuance of common shares to an insider and the entering into the Agreement each constitute a "related party transaction," as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Securityholders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The transactions will be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of any shares issued to, or the consideration paid for the Agreement will exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.

Further, due to the evolving market conditions, the Company has decided to cancel the private placement previously announced on October 16, 2023.
