ASSET UPDATES

Wharf Royalty

On October 27, 2021, Coeur Mining Inc. ("Coeur") reported in a Form 8-K news release, that Wharf produced 28,157 ounces of gold at 0.77 g/t during the third quarter of 2021, in line with the production guidance range of 85-95 Koz for 2021. On September 9, 2021, Coeur reported on 2021 exploration programs at Wharf infilling a great deal of the mineral resources. Significant oxide intercepts include 7.5 g/t gold over 36.6 meters, 4.1 g/t gold over 61 meters and 10.6 g/t gold over 12.2 meters at the Portland Ridge-Boston and Flossie area. Drilling in the Juno area returned 0.62 g/t gold over 60.9 meters. Coeur has received half of the outstanding drill assays with roughly 40% of the holes returning results above resource grade thickness cut-off. Coeur plans to incorporate these results into its year-end 2021 resource model.

Metalla holds a 1.0% GVR royalty on the Wharf mine.

Higginsville Royalty

On October 14, 2021, Karora Resources Inc. announced third quarter production from its Higginsville Gold Operations ("Higginsville") and Beta Hunt mines of 30,365 ounces of gold, in line with 2021 production guidance of 105-115 Koz for 2021.

As at September 30, 2021, 11.6 Koz of gold had been delivered.

New Luika Silver Stream

On October 21, 2021, Shanta Gold Limited ("Shanta") provided a production update on NLGM in Tanzania, where third quarter production totaled 14,194 ounces of gold at a cash cost of US$1,063/oz. On July 19, 2021, Shanta announced a new mine plan for NLGM, where average annual production is expected to be 73.6 Koz gold with the potential to extend mine life beyond 2026 through conversion of significant known resources and the expanded 2,450 tpd mill throughput. Shanta expects total gold production from NLGM for the 5-year plan to total 368 Koz from both open pit and underground mine sources from the mining license. Shanta outlined that the resources presently sitting outside of the mine plan amounts to 552 Koz at 2.37 g/t at NLGM.

The current Probable Reserves at NLGM stand at 423 Koz at 2.99 g/t gold, the Measured Resources are 2.45 Koz at 2.40 g/t gold, the Indicated Resources are 312 Koz at 2.54 g/t gold, and the Inferred Resources are 237 Koz at 2.17 g/t gold.

Metalla holds a 15% interest in Silverback Ltd., whose sole business is receipt and distribution of a 100% silver stream on NLGM at an ongoing cost of 10% of the spot silver price.

On October 28, 2021, Sandfire Resources Limited reported that drilling at Endeavor continued with diamond drilling to the south of the Endeavor orebody to target the southern extension to mineralization.

Metalla has the right to buy 100% of the silver production up to 20 Moz (~12.6 Moz remaining under the contract for delivery) from the Endeavor Mine for an operating cost contribution of $1.00/oz of payable silver, indexed annually for inflation, plus a further increment of 50% of the silver price in excess of $7.00/oz.

Côté-Gosselin

On October 18, 2021, IAMGOLD reported that construction had reached 36% completion at the Côté Gold Project and remains on track for H2 2023 production. At the Gosselin zone, IAMGOLD released an initial Indicated Resource estimate of 3.35 Moz at 0.84 g/t gold and an Inferred Resource estimate of 1.71 Moz at 0.73 g/t gold. The Gosselin deposit has only been drilled to approximately half the depth of the Côté deposit and remains open at depth and along strike. A priority area for exploration will be the saddle area between the Gosselin resource pit shell and the Côté deposit for a potential connection of mineralization between the two orebodies. IAMGOLD announced that it will begin mining and infrastructure studies to review alternatives to optimize inclusion of the Gosselin resource into the future Côté life-of-mine planes. IAMGOLD also stated that it will commence work on defining permitting requirements for development scenarios and initiate discussions on these options with First Nation and Métis stakeholders.

Metalla holds a 1.35% NSR royalty on a portion of the Côté deposit and all of the Gosselin zone.

Santa Gertrudis

On November 2, 2021, Agnico announced drilling in the first half of 2021 totaled 27 holes (15,606 meters) focused on advancing Amelia, Espiritu Santo, Santa Teresa, Centauro, Bertha and other zones. At the Centauro zone, drilling led to a significant discovery of high-grade sulphide structures with notable intercepts of 5.8 g/t gold and 9 g/t silver over 15 meters and another interval in the same hole of 15.1 g/t gold and 13 g/t silver over 5.8 meters.

At Amelia, drilling focused on delineating and expanding the deposit with significant intercepts of 4.6 g/t gold and 5 g/t silver over 3.4 meters, 3.6 g/t gold and 18 g/t silver over 4.2 meters and 10.2 g/t gold and 8 g/t silver over 2.8 meters. One hole intersected 4.5 g/t gold and 13 g/t silver over 12.8 meters at 740 meters depth, 300 meters below previously known mineralization. Another hole located 208 meters west of the aforementioned hole intersected 4.1 g/t gold and 8 g/t silver over 3.7 meters, proving the deposit remains open at depth and to the west. Expansion and delineation drilling to infill the mineral resource at Amelia will continue for the remainder of the year.

At the Santa Teresa zone, near surface oxide drilling expanded the strike length of the zone from 600 meters to 1,200 meters with significant oxide intercepts of 3.6 g/t gold and 30 g/t silver over 3 meters and 1.3 g/t gold and 1 g/t silver over 10.2 meters. Agnico expects to complete an initial resource estimate for this zone at year-end.

At the El Toro deposit, deep drilling has intersected high-grade feeder mineralization with significant intercepts of 2.7 g/t gold and 59 g/t silver over 3.9 meters. At the Bertha zone, significant intercepts include 6.3 g/t gold and 2 g/t silver over 4 meters and 17.4 g/t gold and 6 g/t silver over 3 meters.

During the remainder of 2021, Agnico plans additional drilling and metallurgical testing to continue expanding the mineral resources, to generate and test new targets including the new La Leona, Santo Niño, Mirna, Cieneguita and Veronica targets and to advance the oxide heap-leach project concept.

An updated mineral reserve and resource estimate and an updated preliminary economic assessment are expected in 2021.

Metalla holds a 2.0% NSR royalty on Santa Gertrudis subject to Agnico's right to buy back 1.0% for $7.5 million.

Wasamac

On September 13, 2021, Yamana Gold Inc. ("Yamana") announced that initial drill results reinforced the vision for a 200 Koz plus per year operation with a mine life of at least 15 years. The 15-year mine plan incorporates a portion of the 326 Koz of Indicated Resources and 258 Koz of Inferred Resources which Yamana expects to be converted to Reserves through infill drilling. The balance of the 15-year mine plan is based on a conservative estimate of exploration potential including extension of the Wasa shear along strike and at depth and the potential inclusion of satellite deposits such as the Wildcat zone. In addition, early drill results from Wildcat include 3.84 g/t over 13.25 meters, 13.03 g/t gold over 3.16 meters and 5.02 g/t gold over 11.02 meters. Drilling along strike on the Wildcat zone returned 3.68 g/t gold over 2.57 meters. Exploration expenditures for 2021 and 2022 are estimated by Yamana at $15 million with 120,000 metres of drilling planned. Yamana plans for infill drilling that will include at least 68,000 metres and the balance will be exploration drilling, both on the Wasamac and Francoeur projects. Yamana anticipates the program to ramp up to four drill rigs by late 2021.

Metalla holds a 1.5% NSR royalty on the Wasamac project subject to a buy back of 0.5% for C$7.5 million.
