2024 AGM MAILING AND VOTING UPDATE

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada – HAWKEYE Gold & Diamond Inc. (the “Company” or “HAWKEYE”) (TSX.V-HAWK; Frankfurt Ticker: HGT; WKN: A12A61 ISIN: CA42016R4017): wishes to notify its shareholders that due to the ongoing Canada Post strike, the Company’s meeting materials including its Notice of Meeting, Information Circular, Proxy and VIF voting forms and Return Card (the “Meeting Materials”) in connection with HAWKEYE’s upcoming annual general meeting may be viewed on the Company’s website at www.hawkeyegold.com and/or on the Issuer’s SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca . The annual general meeting is set to be held on December 24, 2024, at 8:30 p.m. Vancouver Time (the “AGM”).

The purpose of the AGM is to receive and consider the audited annual financial statements, to re-appoint Charlton & Company as auditor of the Company and to authorize the directors to fix their remuneration, to elect the directors for the ensuing year, to confirm and approve the Company’s 10% rolling stock option plan and to consider other business as may properly come before the AGM or any postponement(s) or adjournment(s) thereof.

Due to the strike, it is possible that the Meeting Materials will not be delivered to shareholders prior to the AGM. Under the CSA Coordinated Blanket Order 51-931 the Company must mail the Meeting Materials  no later than the third day after the date on which the postal strike ends and regular postal service in Canada resumes, unless: 1) regular postal service in Canada does not resume at least seven days before the date of the AGM being December 16, 2024 (the “Mailing Cut-Off Date”) or,  2) in respect of a particular registered holder or beneficial owner, the reporting issuer has delivered the proxy-related materials to that holder or owner by other means. If the Canada Post strike extends beyond the Mailing Cut-Off Date the Company does not intend to mail the Meeting Materials to its Registered shareholders and NOBO holders.

Furthermore, if the strike continues and does not end by the Mailing Cut-Off Date or prior to it, Shareholders may vote their shares before the Meeting Cut-Off Date (below) as follows:

• Registered shareholders may submit their votes by a form of Proxy and NOBO holders through a VIF (Voting Instruction Form) by completing the form of Proxy and VIF available on the HAWKEYE’s website and/or on the Issuer’s SEDAR+ profile (links are available in the first paragraph above) and sending the completed Proxy and/or VIF to Computershare by email at service@computershare.com. The Proxy and VIF must be sent to Computershare prior to the meeting cut-off date, December 20, 2024, before 8:30 am Pacific Standard Time (the “Meeting Cut-Off Date).

• Registered shareholders and NOBO holders who require assistance submitting their votes by Form of Proxy or by a VIF may contact Computershare toll-free between the hours of 8:30 AM and 8:00 PM EST at 1-800-564-6253 or by email at service@computershare.com.

• Registered shareholders and NOBO holders can also obtain a 15-digit Proxy and VIF control number from Computershare through the abovementioned toll-free number and email address so you can cast your vote for the upcoming AGM by telephone and/or via the internet. Proxy holders can call 1-866-732-8683 and NOBO holders voting by VIF can call 1-866-734-8683 to vote their shares by telephone or go to investorvote.com to vote via the internet.

• If you hold shares through an intermediary such as a brokerage firm, you may also contact your intermediary directly for a copy of HAWKEYE’s Meeting Materials and instructions for voting.

• Shareholders can also make direct requests for copies of the Meeting Materials by contacting Greg Neeld, President & CEO at (604) 908-8511 or through the message link on HAWKEYE’s website at message@hawkeyegold.com. The Company will provide copies of the Meeting Materials by email to each shareholder who requests them while the strike is ongoing.

HAWKEYE has satisfied all the conditions to rely on, and is relying on, the exemption from the requirement to send proxy related materials to its Shareholders in the CSA Coordinated Blanket Order 51-931.

I hope to see you at the AGM but if not, please cast your vote through any of the methods mentioned above.

I would also like to take this opportunity to wish all HAWKEYE’s current and potential Shareholders a Very Merry Christmas and a Safe and Joyous Holiday Season.
