A revocation of a proxy does not affect any matter on which a vote has been taken prior to such revocation.\nYou may also revoke your proxy by attending the Meeting and voting in person.\n\n \n\nIf\nyou are a beneficial stockholder who wishes to revoke a VIF (as defined below) or to revoke a waiver of your right to receive Meeting\nMaterials and to give voting instructions, you must give written instructions to your broker, agent, trustee or other intermediary through\nwhich you hold your shares of common stock in accordance with the applicable procedures and deadlines of your broker, agent, trustee\nor other intermediary.\n\n \n\n**Dissenters\nRights**\n\n \n\nThe\nproposed corporate actions on which the stockholders are being asked to vote are not corporate actions for which stockholders of a Nevada\ncorporation have the right to dissent under the Nevada Private Corporations Chapter of the Nevada Revised Statutes, Nev. Rev. Stat. 78\nor pursuant to the Company’s articles of incorporation or bylaws.\n\n \n\n2\n\n \n\n** **\n\n**ADVICE\nTO BENEFICIAL STOCKHOLDERS**\n\n \n\n**Only\nregistered stockholders or duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Meeting. The information set forth in this section\nis of significant importance to many stockholders as a substantial number of stockholders do not hold their shares of common stock in\ntheir own name.**Such Beneficial Stockholders should note that only proxies deposited by stockholders whose names appear on the records\nmaintained by the Company’s transfer agent as the registered holders of common stock can be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting.\nIf the shares of common stock are listed in an account statement provided to a stockholder by a broker, then in almost all cases those\nshares of common stock will not be registered in such stockholder’s name. Such shares of common stock are more likely to be registered\nunder the names of the stockholder’s broker or an agent of that broker. In the United States, the vast majority of such shares\nof common stock are registered in the name of CEDE & Co. (the registration name for The Depository Trust Company, which acts as nominee\nfor many U.S. brokerage firms). Shares of common stock held by brokers or their agents or nominees can only be voted (for, against or\nwithheld from voting resolutions) upon the instructions of the Beneficial Stockholder. Without specific instructions, brokers and their\nagents and nominees are prohibited from voting shares of common stock for their clients. The directors and officers of the Company do\nnot know for whose benefit the shares of common stock registered in the name of CEDE & Co. are held. In Canada, the vast majority\nof such shares of common stock are registered under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for CDS Clearing and Depository\nServices Inc. (“**CDS**”), which acts as nominee for many Canadian banks, trust companies and brokerage firms). Shares\nof common stock held by brokers or their agents or nominees can only be voted (for, against or withheld from voting resolutions) upon\nthe instructions of the Beneficial Stockholder. Without specific instructions, brokers and their agents and nominees are prohibited from\nvoting shares of common stock for their clients. The directors and officers of the Company do not know for whose benefit the shares of\ncommon stock registered in the name of CDS are held. **Therefore, Beneficial Stockholders should ensure that instructions respecting\nthe voting of their shares of common stock are communicated to the appropriate person well in advance of the Meeting.**\n\n** **\n\nApplicable\nregulatory policy requires intermediaries/brokers to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Stockholders in advance of stockholder\nmeetings. Every intermediary/broker has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions to clients, which should\nbe carefully followed by Beneficial Stockholders in order to ensure that their shares of common stock are voted at the Meeting. The purpose\nof the form of proxy supplied to a Beneficial Stockholder by its broker (or the agent of the broker) is limited to instructing the registered\nstockholder (the broker or agent of the broker) how to vote on behalf of the Beneficial Stockholder. The majority of brokers now delegate\nresponsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“**Broadridge**”). Broadridge\ntypically prepares a machine-readable voting instruction form (a “**VIF**”), mails the VIF to the Beneficial Stockholders\nand requests the Beneficial Stockholders to return the VIF forms to Broadridge or otherwise communicate voting instructions to Broadridge\nby way of the Internet or telephone. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions\nrespecting the voting of shares of common stock to be represented at the Meeting. **A Beneficial Stockholder receiving a VIF from Broadridge\ncannot use that form to vote directly at the Meeting. The VIF must be returned to Broadridge well in advance of the Meeting in order\nto have the shares of common stock voted. If you have any questions with respect to the voting of shares of common stock held through\na broker or other intermediary, please contact your broker or other intermediary directly for assistance.**\n\n** **\n\nAlthough\na Beneficial Stockholder may not be recognized directly at the Meeting for the purposes of voting shares of common stock registered in\nthe name of his/her/its broker (or agent of the broker), a Beneficial Stockholder may attend at the Meeting as proxyholder for the registered\nstockholder and vote shares of common stock in that capacity. If a Beneficial Stockholder wishes to attend and vote at the Meeting in\nperson, the Beneficial Stockholder must insert his/her/its own name as appointee in the blank space of the form of proxy provided to\nthem and return the same to their broker (or the broker’s agent) in accordance with the instructions provided by such broker (or\nagent), well in advance of the Meeting.\n\n \n\n3\n\n \n\n \n\nBeneficial\nStockholders fall into two categories: those who object to their identity being made known to the issuers of securities which they own\n(“**OBOs**”) and those who do not object to their identity being made known to the issuers of the securities they own\n(“**NOBOs**”). Subject to the provisions of NI 54-101 – *Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of\na Reporting Issuer* (“**NI 54-101**”), the Company may request and obtain a list of its NOBOs from intermediaries.\nPursuant to NI 54-101, the Company may obtain and use the NOBO list in connection with any matter relating to the affairs of the Company,\nincluding the distribution of the proxy materials directly to NOBOs. The Company is sending the Meeting Materials directly to the NOBOs.\nThe Company will not use and pay intermediaries and agents to send the Meeting Materials to the NOBOs but intends to pay for intermediaries\nto deliver the Meeting Materials to the OBOs. The Meeting Materials are being sent to both registered stockholders and Beneficial Stockholders.\nIf you are a Beneficial Stockholder, and the Company or its transfer agent has sent the Meeting Materials directly to you, your name\nand address and information about your holdings of your shares of common stock, has been obtained in accordance with applicable securities\nregulatory requirements from the intermediary holding on your behalf.\n\n \n\nIf\nyou are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and do not provide the organization that holds your shares with specific voting\ninstructions, the organization that holds your shares may generally vote on “routine” matters such as Item 2 (ratification\nof appointment of auditors), but cannot vote on “non-routine” matters such as Item 3 (election of directors), Item 4 (approval\nof amendments to the restricted stock unit incentive plan), Item 5 (approval of amendments to the rolling stock option plan), or Item\n6 (advisory vote on executive compensation). Thus, if the organization that holds your shares does not receive instructions from you\non how to vote your shares on a “non-routine” matter, that organization will inform the inspector of election that it does\nnot have the authority to vote on such matter with respect to your shares. This is generally referred to as a “broker non-vote.”\n\n \n\n**RECORD\nDATE**\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard has fixed May 6, 2026, as the record date (the “**Record Date**”) for the purposes of determining holders\nof shares of common stock entitled to receive the Notice of Meeting. Registered holders of shares of common stock, as shown on the stockholders’\nlist prepared as of the close of business on the Record Date, will be entitled to receive notice of, attend and vote at the Meeting on\nthe basis of one vote for each share of common stock held.\n\n \n\n**CURRENCY**\n\n \n\nThe\nCompany’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “**2025 Financial Statements**”)\nare reported in United States dollars, the Company’s functional currency. All references to currency in this Proxy Statement are\nin United States dollars, unless otherwise indicated.\n\n \n\n**INTERESTS\nOF CERTAIN PERSONS OR COMPANIES IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON**\n\n \n\nExcept\nas otherwise disclosed herein, none of directors or executive officers of the Company, nor any person who has held such a position since\nthe beginning of the last completed fiscal year of the Company, nor any proposed Nominee for election as a director of the Company, nor\nany associate or affiliate of any of the foregoing, has any substantially or material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial\nownership or otherwise, in any matter to be acted upon at the Meeting.\n\n \n\n**VOTING\nSECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS**\n\n \n\n**Quorum**\n\n \n\nA\nquorum of stockholders is necessary to hold the Meeting. In accordance with the Company’s bylaws, two stockholders, represented\nin person or by proxy, representing at least 5% of the issued stock entitled to vote at the Meeting, will constitute a quorum at the\nMeeting. The presence of holders of at least 2,334,264 shares of common stock will constitute a quorum. Abstentions and “broker\nnon-votes” are counted as present and are, therefore, included for purposes of determining whether a quorum of shares is present\nat the Meeting. Shares of common stock that are not present in person or by proxy will not be counted towards a quorum.\n\n \n\n4\n\n \n\n** **\n\n**Securities\nEntitled to Vote**\n\n \n\nThe\nauthorized capital of the Company consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.000001 per share and 285,715\nshares of preferred stock of the Company with a par value of $0.000001 per share.\n\n \n\nAs\nat the Record Date, the Company had 46,685,293 fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock issued and outstanding, with each\nshare of common stock carrying the right to one vote.

Pursuant to the charter of the Audit Committee (the “**Audit Committee Charter**”),\nthe Audit Committee has sole authority to appoint or replace the independent auditor (subject to stockholder ratification) and responsibility\nfor the compensation and work of the independent auditor.

It is the intention of the Management Designees named in the enclosed form of proxy,\nif not expressly directed to the contrary in such form of proxy, to vote such proxies “**FOR**” the ratification of the\nappointment of MNP as the auditor of the Company.\n\n \n\nIf\nyou fail to vote or submit a proxy or fail to instruct your broker to vote (and your broker does not exercise its discretion to vote\nyour shares on this matter) or vote to “**ABSTAIN**,” it will have the same effect of a vote “**AGAINST**”\nthe matter, assuming that a quorum exists. Because the ratification of the appointment of MNP as the auditor of the Company is considered\na routine matter and brokers will be entitled to vote your shares in their discretion if no voting instructions are timely received,\nthere will be no broker non-votes with respect to this matter.\n\n \n\n**Item\n3 — Election of Directors**\n\n \n\nThe\nmanagement nominees for election as directors of the Company (each, a “**Nominee**”) are experienced mining and business\nleaders well-suited to provide oversight to the Company as it continues the next phase of its development. The Board currently consists\nof six (6) directors. At the Meeting, the six (6) nominees named in the section “*Nominees*” below, being Richard Williams,\nKelli Kast, Mark Child, Mark Cruise, Pamela Saxton, and Sam Ash, (the “**Nominees**”) will be proposed for re-election/election\nas directors of the Company. Each of the proposed Nominees was re-elected as a director at the Company’s meeting of stockholders\nheld on September 18, 2025, excluding Mark Child, who joined the Board on May 6, 2026.\n\n \n\nEach\ndirector elected at the Meeting will hold office until the close of the next annual meeting of stockholders, subject to earlier resignation,\ndeath, retirement, disqualification or removal. Management does not contemplate that any of the Nominees will be unable to serve as a\ndirector, but if that should occur for any reason prior to the Meeting, it is intended that discretionary authority shall be exercised\nby the persons named in the proxy to vote the proxy for the election of any other person(s) in place of any Nominee(s) unable to serve.\n\n \n\n**Board\nRecommendation**\n\n* *\n\nThe\nBoard unanimously recommends that the Company’s stockholders vote “**FOR**” the proposal to elect each Nominee as\na director of the Company.\n\n \n\n7\n\n \n\n** **\n\n**Vote\nRequired for Approval**\n\n \n\nThe\nelection of each Nominee pursuant to this matter will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a plurality of the votes cast with\nrespect to the election, assuming that a quorum exists.\n\n \n\nStockholders\nhave the option to vote individually “**FOR**” or to “**WITHHOLD**” their vote in respect of each Nominee.\nIt is the intention of the Management Designees named in the enclosed form of proxy, if not expressly directed to the contrary in such\nform of proxy, to vote such proxies “**FOR**” the election of each Nominee whose name is set forth below as a director\nof the Company.\n\n \n\nIf\nyou fail to vote or submit a proxy, fail to instruct your broker to vote, or vote to “**WITHHOLD**,” it will have no effect\non the election of the Nominee, assuming that a quorum exists, since the number of Nominees is equal to the number of director seats\nup for election. Brokers are not entitled to vote on the election of Nominees as this is a non-routine matter. However, because directors\nare elected by a plurality of the vote, broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on the election of Nominees.\n\n \n\n**Nominees**\n\n* *\n\nThe\nfollowing table contains certain information, as at the date hereof, in connection with the Nominees proposed for election as directors\nof the Company.\n\n \n\n**Name,\nProvince or State and\nCountry of Residence, Position(s)\nHeld with the Company**\n \n**Age**\n \n**Present\nPrincipal Occupation and/or Positions held During the Preceding Five Years**\n \n**Date\nFirst Became\na Director**\n\n**Richard\nWilliams**\n\n*Ontario,\nCanada*\n\n*Executive\nChairman*\n\n \n59\n \nNon-Executive\nDirector of Trevali Mining Corporation (June 2019–September 2022).\n \nMarch\n27, 2020\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n**Kelli\nKast**\n\n*Colorado,\nUSA*\n\n*Director,\nChair of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, Member of each of the\nAudit Committee and Compensation Committee*\n\n \n59\n \nVice\nPresident, General Counsel and Chief Administrative Officer (since July 1, 2024) and former Interim President and CEO (March 2024–May\n2024) of, and former consultant (June 2015–June 2024) to, Rare Element Resources Ltd., a publicly-traded rare earth company.\n \nOctober\n1, 2024\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n**Mark\nChild**\n\n*London,\nUnited Kingdom*\n\n*Director*\n\n \n64\n \nCEO\nof Condor Gold plc (2006–2025).\n \nMay\n6, 2026\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n**Mark\nCruise**\n\n*British\nColumbia, Canada*\n\n*Lead\nIndependent Director, Chair of the Compensation Committee, and Member of each of the Audit Committee and the Corporate Governance\nand Nominating Committee*\n\n \n55\n \nCOO\nand CEO New Pacific Metals Corp.

The principal\nchanges between the existing RSU Plan and the amended and restated RSU Plan (the “**Amended and Restated RSU Plan**”)\nare as follows:\n\n \n\n●\nthe\nmaximum number of shares of common stock issuable thereunder is increased from 2,648,555 shares (being the number of shares\nof common stock, on a post-consolidation basis, that is equal to 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock as at July\n17, 2025) to 3,501,396 shares (being the number of shares of common stock that is equal to 7.5% of the issued and outstanding\nshares of common stock as at April 28, 2026);\n\n \n \n\n●\nin\naccordance with the policies of the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “**TSX**”), the aggregate insider participation limit\nhas been clarified such that the maximum number of shares of common stock issued under the Amended and Restated RSU Plan and any\nother security based compensation plan of the Company during any 12-month period to insiders of the Company, as a group, will not\nexceed 10% of the issued and outstanding shares, calculated as at the date such RSU or other security based compensation is granted\nto any insider (under the existing provisions of the RSU Plan, the aggregate insider participation limit references the number of\nshares of common stock *issuable*, rather than *issued*, to insiders as a group);\n\n \n \n\n●\nthe\nAmended and Restated RSU Plan does not include the 2% limit on issuances to consultants (under the existing RSU Plan, which was prepared\nin accordance with the requirements of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “**TSX-V**”), the maximum number of shares of\ncommon stock that could be granted or issued to any one consultant of the Company could not exceed 2% of the issued and outstanding\nshares of common stock on the date of such grant or issuance);\n\n \n \n\n●\npersons\nproviding investor relations activities to the Company may be eligible to receive RSUs under the Amended and Restated RSU Plan (under\nthe existing provisions of the RSU Plan, which was prepared in accordance with the requirements of the TSX-V, such persons were not\neligible to participate);\n\n \n \n\n●\nremoval\nof references to the Exchange Hold Period, as defined in TSX-V Policy 1.1 – *Interpretation* (under the existing terms\nof the RSU Plan, the Exchange Hold Period applies to certain persons, and where required, such persons’ securities certificates\nbear a legend restricting the sale of such securities until the expiry of the Exchange Hold Period);\n\n \n \n\n●\nthe\nfollowing amendments to the Amended and Restated RSU Plan can be made only with stockholder approval (under the existing RSU Plan,\nwhich was prepared in accordance with the requirements of the TSXV, disinterested stockholder approval is required): (i) removing\nor exceeding the 10% limit to Insider participation; (ii) increasing the maximum number of shares of common stock made available\nfrom treasury under the RSU Plan; (iii) extending the term of an RSU for the benefit of an insider; (iv) designating additional categories\nof Grantees;

Currently, there are 4 independent directors, 2 executive officers, 3 employees and 0 consultants that participate under the\nRSU Plan.\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard has not granted any awards under the RSU Plan that are conditional on the approval of this resolution and there are no existing\ncontractual obligations to issue awards under the RSU Plan that are contingent upon the approval of this resolution. Because the grant\nof awards under the RSU Plan is at the sole discretion of the Board and the Compensation Committee, it cannot currently be determined\nhow many of such awards under the RSU Plan may be granted in the future (or would have been granted in the past fiscal year if such amendments\nwere adopted at the beginning of the fiscal year) to any individual participant, all executive officers as a group, any associate of\nan executive officer, any consultant company of the Company or an affiliate of the Company, all consultant companies as a group, any\nemployee of the Company or all employees as a group.\n\n \n\n12\n\n \n\n \n\n**Certain\nUnited States Federal Income Tax Consequences**\n\n** **\n\nThe\nfollowing is a brief summary of certain United States federal income tax consequences with respect to the grant of awards under the RSU\nPlan. This summary does not describe all federal income tax consequences, including the consequences of owning and selling shares of\ncommon stock, nor does it describe Canadian, state, local or foreign income tax consequences.\n\n \n\n*Scope\nof This Disclosure*\n\n \n\nThis\nsummary does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences of participation in the RSU Plan by a non-U.S. Participant. For purposes\nof this summary, a “U.S. Participant” is a participant in the RSU Plan who is either a citizen of the U.S. or a resident\nalien of the U.S. for purposes of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Canada-U.S. Tax Convention.\nFor purposes of this summary, a “non-U.S. Participant” is a participant in the RSU Plan who is not a U.S. Participant.\n\n \n\n*Tax\nConsequences with Respect to Awards of Restricted Stock Units*\n\n* *\n\nThere\nare no tax consequences to a U.S. Participant or the Company by reason of the grant of restricted stock units under the RSU Plan. If\nan award is payable in shares of common stock that are subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, unless a special election is made\nby the holder of the award under section 83(b) of the Code, the holder must recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value\nof the shares of common stock received (determined as of the first time the shares of common stock become transferable or not subject\nto substantial risk of forfeiture, whichever occurs earlier).\n\n \n\nThe\nholder’s basis for the shares of common stock acquired under the RSU Plan will be the amount of ordinary income recognized either\nwhen the shares of common stock are received. The Company will generally be entitled at that time to a U.S. income tax deduction for\nthe same amount, subject to the rules of Section 162(m) of the Code.\n\n \n\n*Change\nin Control*\n\n* *\n\nDepending\non the terms of a U.S. Participant’s award agreement, upon a change in control of the Company, restrictions on a U.S. Participant’s\naward may lapse, or a U.S. Participant’s award may mature on an accelerated schedule. If this type of benefit, or other benefits\nand payments connected with a U.S. Participant’s award that result from a change in control of the Company, are granted to certain\nindividuals (such as the Company’s executive officers), the benefits and payments may be deemed to be “parachute payments”\nwithin the meaning of Section 280G of the Code. Section 280G provides that if parachute payments to an individual equal or exceed three\ntimes the individual’s “base amount,” the excess of the parachute payments over one times the base amount will be subject\nto a 20% excise tax payable by the individual. Any amount that is subject to an excise tax is also not deductible by the Company. “Base\namount” is the individual’s average annual compensation over the five taxable years preceding the taxable year in which the\nchange in control occurs. Each U.S. Participant should consult his or her own tax advisor regarding potential tax liability upon a change\nin control of the Company.\n\n \n\n*Certain\nSpecial Rules*\n\n* *\n\nThe\nforeign earned income exclusion provisions and the foreign tax credit provisions of the Code may, under certain circumstances, reduce\nthe U.S. federal income tax liability of a U.S. Participant with respect to participation in the Plans. U.S. Participants should consult\ntheir own tax advisor regarding the foreign earned income exclusion provisions and the foreign tax credit provisions of the Code.\n\n \n\n13\n\n \n\n \n\n*Income\nTax Deduction*\n\n* *\n\nSubject\nto the usual rules concerning reasonable compensation, including the Company’s obligation to withhold or otherwise collect certain\nincome and payroll taxes, the Company may be entitled to a corresponding income tax deduction at the time a participant recognizes ordinary\nincome from awards made under the RSU Plan. However, Section 162(m) of the Code prohibits publicly held corporations from deducting more\nthan $1,000,000 per year in compensation paid to certain current and former named executive officers (the “covered executives”).\nTherefore, annual compensation paid to a covered executive in excess of $1,000,000 will generally not be deductible.\n\n \n\n**Amended\nand Restated RSU Plan Resolution**\n\n* *\n\nThe\nTSX has conditionally approved the RSU Plan Amendments, subject to receipt from the Company of, among other things, evidence of approval\nfrom the Company’s stockholders. At the Meeting, the Company’s stockholders will be asked to consider and, if deemed advisable,\nto pass, with or without variation, an ordinary resolution approving the Amended and Restated RSU Plan (the “**RSU Plan Resolution**”).\nShould the RSU Plan Resolution not receive the required approval of the Company’s stockholders, the Amended and Restated RSU Plan\nwill not be adopted, and the existing RSU Plan will remain in place.\n\n \n\nThe\ntext of the RSU Plan Resolution is as follows:\n\n \n\n**“BE\nIT RESOLVED THAT, as an ordinary resolution:**\n\n \n\n \n1.\nthe\nproposed amendments to the restricted stock unit incentive plan (the “**RSU Plan**”) of Bunker Hill Mining Corp.

This summary does not describe all federal tax consequences, including the consequences of owning and\nselling the Common Shares, nor does it describe Canadian, state, local or foreign tax consequences.\n\n \n\n*Scope\nof This Disclosure*\n\n \n\nThis\nsummary does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences of participation in the Option Plan by a non-U.S. Participant. For\npurposes of this summary, a “U.S. Participant” is a participant in the Option Plan who is either a citizen of the U.S. or\na resident alien of the U.S. for purposes of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Canada-U.S.\nTax Convention. For purposes of this summary, a “non-U.S. Participant” is a participant in the Stock Option Plan who is not\na U.S. Participant.\n\n \n\n*Tax\nConsequences with Respect to Options*\n\n \n\nThe\nfollowing is a summary of certain anticipated material U.S. federal income tax consequences with respect to options granted pursuant\nto the Option Plan. This summary is based on the Code, Treasury Regulations, published IRS rulings, published administrative positions\nof the IRS. The options granted under the Option Plan are not intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” under Section\n422 of the Code. Accordingly, the options should be treated as “non-qualified stock options”. In general, the following tax\nconsequences will apply to U.S. Participants:\n\n \n\n \n●\n**Grant.**U.S. Participants will not recognize any taxable income at the time an option is granted.\n\n \n●\n**Exercise.**Upon the exercise of an option, exercising U.S. Participants will recognize ordinary income in the amount by which the fair\nmarket value of the shares of common stock at the time of exercise exceeds the option exercise price, and Company generally will\nbe entitled at that time to an income tax deduction for the same amount. If a U.S. Participant is an employee or former employee\nthis income may be subject to income and payroll tax withholding.\n\n \n●\n**Tax\nBasis of the Acquired Shares of Common Stock.**If a U.S. Participant pays the exercise price in cash, the U.S. Participant’s\noriginal tax basis in the Common Shares received upon exercise will equal the sum of (1) the option exercise price plus (2) the amount\nsuch a U.S. Participant is required to recognize as income as a result of the exercise. If the U.S. Participant pays the exercise\nprice by tendering other shares of common stock, the U.S. Participant will not recognize gain or loss on the tendered shares of common\nstock, but the original tax basis for an equal number of shares of common stock acquired upon exercise of the option will be the\nsame as the adjusted tax basis for the tendered shares of common stock. The remaining acquired shares of common stock will have an\noriginal tax basis equal to (a) the sum of the amount of the exercise price paid in cash, if any, plus (b) any amount the U.S. Participant\nis required to recognize as income as a result of the option exercise.\n\n \n●\n**Holding\nPeriod.**The holding period for shares of common stock acquired upon exercise of an option, for purposes of determining whether\nany capital gain or loss on a holder’s subsequent sale is long-term or short-term, shall begin at the time of the exercise\nof the option (or, in the case of an officer or director who does not make the Section 83(b) election described below, on the date\nup to six months later when ordinary income is recognized).\n\n \n\n16\n\n \n\n* *\n\n*U.S.\nParticipants Subject to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act*\n\n \n\nIf\na U.S. Participant is an executive officer or director subject to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, any shares of\ncommon stock received upon exercise of an option may, in certain circumstances, be treated as restricted property for purposes of Section\n83 of the Code. In that case, such U.S. Participant may be deemed to have acquired the shares of common stock at a date up to six months\nafter the date of exercise, and such U.S. Participant will recognize (and be taxed on) ordinary income as of the later date, rather than\nas of the date of exercise. However, Section 83(b) of the Code allows a U.S. Participant to elect to recognize ordinary income as of\nthe date of exercise, without regard to Section 16(b) restrictions. The U.S. Participant must make the election in the manner specified\nin Section 83(b) within 30 days after the shares of common stock are paid out. If (1) the shares of common stock paid out are treated\nas restricted property for purposes of Section 83 of the Code because of the application of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange\nAct of 1934 and (2) the U.S. Participant does not make a Section 83(b) election within the required time period, the U.S. Participant\nwill recognize and be taxed on ordinary income in the amount of the fair market value of the shares of common stock at the later date,\nrather than recognizing, and being taxed on, ordinary income in the amount of the fair market value of the shares of common stock on\nthe exercise date.\n\n \n\n*Certain\nSpecial Rules*\n\n \n\nThe\nforeign earned income exclusion provisions and the foreign tax credit provisions of the Code may, under certain circumstances, reduce\nthe U.S. federal income tax liability of a U.S. Participant with respect to participation in the Option Plan. U.S. Participants should\nconsult their own tax advisor regarding the foreign earned income exclusion provisions and the foreign tax credit provisions of the Code.\n\n \n\n*Income\nTax Deduction*\n\n* *\n\nSubject\nto the usual rules concerning reasonable compensation, including the Company’s obligation to withhold or otherwise collect certain\nincome and payroll taxes, the Company may be entitled to a corresponding income tax deduction at the time a participant recognizes ordinary\nincome from awards made under the Option Plan. However, Section 162(m) of the Code prohibits publicly held corporations from deducting\nmore than $1,000,000 per year in compensation paid to certain current and former named executive officers (the “covered executives”).\nTherefore, annual compensation paid to a covered executive in excess of $1,000,000 will generally not be deductible.\n\n** **\n\n**Option\nPlan Resolution**\n\n** **\n\nShould\nthe Option Plan Resolution not receive the required approval of the Company’s stockholders, the Amended and Restated Option Plan\nwill not be adopted, and the existing Option Plan will remain in place.\n\n \n\nThe\ntext of the Option Plan Resolution is as follows:\n\n \n\n**“BE\nIT RESOLVED THAT, as an ordinary resolution:**\n\n \n\n \n1.\nthe\nproposed amendments to the stock option plan (the “**Option Plan**”) of Bunker Hill Mining Corp.

This is commonly referred to as a “say-on-pay” vote, as it gives the stockholders the opportunity\nto communicate to the Compensation Committee and the Board their views on the compensation of the Company’s NEOs. This vote is\nnot intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of the Company’s NEOs and the compensation\npolicies and practices described in this Proxy Statement. Companies subject to the “say-on-pay” rules are required to hold\na stockholder vote at least once every six calendar years to determine the frequency of the say-on-pay vote — annually, biennially\nor triennially. In 2024, our stockholders selected, on a non-binding advisory basis, “every year” as the preferred frequency\nfor voting on the compensation of our NEOs.\n\n \n\nThe\n“say-on-pay” vote is advisory only and, therefore, is not binding on the Company, the Compensation Committee, or the Board,\nand will not be construed as overruling a decision by, or creating or implying any fiduciary duty for, the Company, the Compensation\nCommittee, or the Board. Although the vote is non-binding, the Compensation Committee, which is responsible generally for designing and\nadministering the Company’s executive compensation program, and the Board, values the opinions expressed by stockholders in their\nvote on this proposal and will review the voting results, seek to determine the reasons for such results, and take such feedback into\nconsideration when making future compensation decisions for the Company’s executive officers.\n\n \n\nOur\nexecutive compensation program is heavily weighted toward performance and links our executives’ pay to the achievement of the Company’s\ncurrent and long-term strategic projects. Please see the “*Statement of Executive and Director Compensation—Executive Compensation\nDiscussion and Analysis*” section below for detailed information regarding the current compensation program for the Company’s\nNEOs. We believe that our executive compensation program appropriately incentivizes and rewards our executive team and effectively promotes\nthe interests of both the Company and our stockholders.\n\n \n\n**Say-on-Pay\nResolution**\n\n* *\n\nThe\ntext of the resolution for the Say-on-Pay Resolution is as follows:\n\n \n\n“**BE\nIT RESOLVED THAT, as an ordinary resolution:**\n\n \n\n \n \nthe\nstockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers as disclosed in the proxy statement\nfor the Meeting pursuant to the executive compensation disclosure rules of the SEC, which proxy statement includes the compensation\ntables and the narrative discussion that accompanies the compensation tables.”\n\n** **\n\n18\n\n \n\n** **\n\n**Board\nRecommendation**\n\n* *\n\nThe\nBoard unanimously recommends that the Company’s stockholders vote “**FOR**” the proposal to approve, on a non-binding\nadvisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s NEOs.\n\n \n\n**Vote\nRequired for Approval**\n\n** **\n\nApproval\nof the Say-on-Pay Resolution will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares represented at the Meeting\nand entitled to vote on the matter, assuming that a quorum exists.\n\n \n\nStockholders\nhave the option to vote “**FOR**”, “**AGAINST**”, or “**ABSTAIN**” the Say-on-Pay Resolution.\n**It is the intention of the Management Designees named in the enclosed form of proxy, if not expressly directed to the contrary in\nsuch form of proxy, to vote such proxies “FOR” the Say-on-Pay Resolution.**\n\n \n\nBecause\nthe Say-on-Pay Resolution will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares represented at the Meeting and\nentitled to vote on the matter, an abstention with respect to such vote will have the same effect as a vote “**AGAINST**”\nthe Say-on-Pay Resolution, assuming that a quorum exists.

The Chair of the Compensation Committee is Mark Cruise, with Kelli Kast and Pamela Saxton as the\ncurrent members, all of whom are independent directors, including pursuant to sections 803A and 803(c)(1) of the NYSE American Company\nGuide. The charter for the Compensation Committee is available on the Company’s website www.bunkerhillmining.com.\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard and the Compensation Committee have updated the Company’s overall compensation plan (the “**Compensation Plan**”)\nto reflect industry best practices and ensure that executive compensation drives successful execution of the Company’s strategy,\nthereby ensuring alignment with the interests of the stockholders.\n\n \n\nThe\nCompensation Committee meets on compensation matters as often as required to fulfill its duties. Management plays a key role in compensation\npolicy decisions by making recommendations to the Compensation Committee.\n\n \n\nThe\nCompensation Committee is also involved in setting and reviewing non-executive director compensation by reviewing and recommending to\nthe Board for approval the annual director retainer, additional committee chair retainers, the value of any equity compensation and how\nsuch equity compensation will be provided.\n\n \n\n**Compensation\nCommittee Interlocks and Insider Participation**\n\n** **\n\nNo\nmember of the Compensation Committee was, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, an officer or employee of the Company, and\nno such member has ever served as an officer of the Company.

The Company’s compensation practices are based on a pay-for-performance philosophy in which assessment\nof performance is based on the Company’s financial and operational performance as well as individual contributions all benchmarked\nagainst peers. To that end, the compensation program rewards each executive based on corporate and individual performance and incentivizes\nthem to drive the organization’s growth in a sustainable and prudent way.\n\n \n\n**Compensation\nPlan**\n\n \n\nThe\nfollowing key principles underpin the Compensation Plan:\n\n \n\n \n●\nthe\nneed to attract, retain, motivate and engage high-caliber talent whose expertise, skills and performance are critical to the Company’s\nsuccess;\n\n \n \n \n\n \n●\nthe\nneed to align employee interests with the business objectives of Bunker Hill;\n\n \n \n \n\n \n●\nthe\nneed to focus employees on the key business factors that will drive shareholder value;\n\n \n \n \n\n \n●\nthe\nneed to align compensation with Bunker Hill’s corporate strategy and financial interests as well as the long-term interests\nof Bunker Hill’s stakeholders; and\n\n \n \n \n\n \n●\ncompensation\nshould be fair and reasonable to stockholders and be set with reference to the local market and similar positions in comparable companies.\n\n \n\n20\n\n \n\n** **\n\n**Compensation\nReview Process**\n\n \n\nThe\nCompensation Committee is tasked with the responsibility of, among other things, recommending to the Board compensation policies and\nguidelines for the Company and for implementing and overseeing compensation policies approved by the Board. Since 2021, the Compensation\nCommittee has been assisted by an independent compensation consultant, Global Governance Advisors (“**GGA**”), who conducts\npay benchmarking for executive as well as non-employee director positions against peer companies and the broader mining industry. GGA\nalso provides advice to the Compensation Committee on short- and long-term incentive plan design, share ownership guidelines, severance\ntrends, and compensation and governance disclosure. As part of its work, GGA provides recommendations and guidance to the Compensation\nCommittee on setting appropriate remuneration levels and creating an appropriate compensation structure for selected senior employees\nwithin the Company. Additionally, in assessing compensation levels, the Compensation Committee relies on the experience of its members\nas officers, directors and advisors of other publicly traded mining companies. The purpose of the compensation assessment process is\nto:\n\n \n\n \n●\nunderstand\nthe competitiveness of current pay levels for each executive position relative to similar mining companies;\n\n \n \n \n\n \n●\nidentify\nand understand any gaps that may exist between the Company’s overall compensation structure and the compensation paid by peers\nand the broader mining industry; and\n\n \n \n \n\n \n●\nestablish\na basis for developing salary adjustments and short-term and long-term incentive awards.\n\n \n\nThe\nCompensation Committee reviews on an annual basis the cash compensation, performance, incentive equity and overall compensation package\nof each executive officer, including our NEOs. It then submits to the Board recommendations for each executive officer regarding base\nsalary, short-term incentive, and long-term incentive grants under the Option Plan, RSU Plan, and/or the DSU Plan (as defined below).\n\n \n\nThe\nCompensation Committee is required to pre-approve any compensation-related engagements by GGA. Although management of the Company may\nwork with GGA on compensation specifics, GGA reports directly to the Compensation Committee in all engagements undertaken. The Company\nincurred the following fees for GGA’s work over the past two years:\n\n \n\n**Year**\n \n**Executive\nCompensation-Related Fees**\n \n**All\nOther Fees**\n\n2025\n \nC$41,656\n \nNil\n\n2024\n \nC$34,327\n \nNil\n\n \n\nDuring\n2025, the Compensation Committee engaged GGA to review the Company’s peer group as well as provide a comprehensive compensation\nbenchmark analysis for its four highest paid employees and non-employee directors against the approved peer group.\n\n \n\nIn\n2025, GGA was engaged to review the Company’s executive employment agreements and develop internal reporting material as it relates\nto the current value of compensation held by executives, for review by the Compensation Committee.\n\n \n\n21\n\n \n\n** **\n\n**Peer\nGroup**\n\n** **\n\nThe\nCompany uses the following criteria when determining appropriate peers for benchmarking compensation levels and design in the marketplace:\n\n \n\n \n●\ncompanies\nof a similar size to Bunker Hill, primarily from a “market cap” perspective, but also considering other factors such\nas “total assets”;\n\n \n \n \n\n \n●\ncompanies\nwith operations in similar geographical locations to Bunker Hill (i.e., Idaho, North America) to account for geographic risk;\n\n \n \n \n\n \n●\ncompanies\nprimarily mining for base and/or precious metals;\n\n \n \n \n\n \n●\ncompanies\nwho are small producers or in the advanced development phase with manageable capital expenditures;\n\n \n \n \n\n \n●\ncompanies\nwith a similar business strategy and scope of operations to Bunker Hill being a single asset developer and focused on sustainable\nmining; and\n\n \n \n \n\n \n●\npublicly\ntraded companies on major North American exchanges.\n\n \n\nThe\npeer group defines the competitive market, which the Company uses to guide executive compensation design and pay levels. Based on the\ncriteria listed above, the following peer group was used to benchmark compensation for 2025 (the “**2025 Peer Group**”)\nfor the purpose of evaluating the competitiveness of the Company’s executive, senior management and non-employee director compensation\nlevels and designs:\n\n \n\n**2025\nPeer Group**\n\n●\nAmericas\nGold & Silver Corporation\n \n●\nExcelsior\nMining Corp.\n \n●\nParamount\nGold Nevada Corp.\n\n●\nArizona\nMetals Corp.\n \n●\nFireweed\nMetals Corp.\n \n●\nPerpetua\nResources Corp.\n\n●\nArizona\nSonoran Copper Company\n \n●\nForan\nMining Corp.\n \n●\nRevival\nGold Inc.\n\n●\nCentury\nLithium Corp.\n \n●\nIdaho\nStrategic Resources Inc.\n \n●\nTitan\nMining Corp.\n\n●\nElectra\nBattery Materials Corp.\n \n●\nIntegra\nResources Corp.\n \n●\nU.S.\nGold Corp.\n\n●\nNevada\nCopper Corp.\n \n●\nLiberty\nGold Corp.\n \n \n \n\n \n\nIn\naddition to the peer group outlined above, for additional context the Company also evaluated global mining industry data for companies\nof a similar size from a “total assets” perspective from GGA’s Global Mining compensation database in addition to other\npublicly available third-party surveys to provide an overview of broader market trends and practices.\n\n \n\n**Compensation\nRisk Considerations**\n\n \n\nThe\nCompensation Committee considers the implications of the risks associated with the Company’s compensation policies and practices\nand has concluded that, given the nature of the Company’s business and the role of the Compensation Committee in overseeing the\nCompany’s executive compensation practices, the compensation policies and practices do not serve to encourage our NEOs to take\ninappropriate or excessive risks, and no risks were identified arising from the Company’s compensation policies and practices that\nare reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.\n\n \n\n22\n\n \n\n** **\n\n**2025\nCompany Highlights**\n\n \n\n2025\nKey Developments\n\n \n\nDuring\n2025, the Company completed a major restructuring of its balance sheet, including the conversion of certain outstanding debt into equity,\nand the modification of certain existing royalty and stream financing arrangements with Sprott Streaming and Royalty Corp.

Teck Resources\nLimited (together with its affiliates, “**Teck**”) participated in the 2025 Private Placements and, as a result, became\na related party alongside Sprott, holding more than 10% of the Company’s common stock. Concurrent with the balance sheet restructuring\nin 2025, the Company focused on executing its mine restart plan, prioritizing safety, environmental stewardship, infrastructure readiness,\ntechnical de-risking, and organizational development.

Any shares of common stock subject to an Option which has been granted\nunder the Option Plan, and which has been surrendered, terminated, or expired without being exercised, in whole or in part, will again\nbe available under the Option Plan.\n\n \n\nAs\nat December 31, 2025, there were 51,832 Options outstanding, representing 0.1% of the then issued and outstanding\nshares of common stock, and 3,931,570 unallocated Options to purchase 3,983,402 shares of common stock under the Option\nPlan, equal to 10% of the currently issued and outstanding shares of common stock (in each case, on a post-consolidation basis).\n\n \n\nPursuant\nto the rules and policies of the TSX, unallocated options, rights or other entitlements under a TSX-listed issuer’s security based\ncompensation arrangement that does not have a fixed maximum number of securities issuable (which includes the Option Plan) must be approved\nby the issuer’s stockholders every three years. Accordingly, the Company must seek stockholder approval of the unallocated Options\nunder the Option Plan no later than March 25, 2029 (being three years from the date on which the Company’s shares of common stock\nbegan trading on the TSX).\n\n \n\n*Purpose\nof the Option Plan*\n\n* *\n\nThe\npurpose of the Option Plan is to advance the interests of the Company by: (i) providing certain employees, senior officers, directors\nand service providers of the Company and its designated affiliates or subsidiaries (collectively, the “**Optionees**”)\nwith additional performance incentives; (ii) encouraging common stock ownership by the Optionees through the grant of Options; (iii)\nincreasing the proprietary interest of the Optionees in the success of the Company; (iv) encouraging the Optionees to remain with the\nCompany; and (v) attracting new employees, officers, directors and consultants to the Company.\n\n \n\n*Annual\nBurn Rate*\n\n* *\n\nThe\nCompany’s annual burn rate, described in Section 613(d) of the TSX Company Manual (“**Burn Rate**”) under the Option\nPlan was as follows:\n\n \n\nYear \n2025  \n2024  \n2023 \n\nBurn Rate \n 0.17% \n 0.03% \n - \n\n \n\nThe\nBurn Rate is calculated by dividing the number of options granted under the Stock Option Plan during the relevant fiscal year by the\nweighted average number of securities outstanding for the applicable fiscal year, as described in Section 613(p) of the TSX Company Manual.\n\n \n\n36\n\n \n\n* *\n\n*Grant\nof Options*\n\n \n\nPursuant\nto the Option Plan, the Board may from time to time, in its discretion, grant Options to Optionees in consideration of them providing\ntheir services to the Company or its affiliate. The number of shares of common stock subject to each Option is determined by the Board\nwithin the guidelines established by the Option Plan. The Options enable the Optionees to purchase shares of common stock at a price\nfixed pursuant to such guidelines, subject to (b) in the list immediately below. The Options are exercisable by the Optionee giving the\nCompany notice and payment of the exercise price for the number of shares of common stock to be acquired. The Option Plan authorizes\nthe Board to grant Options to the Optionees on, among others, the following terms:\n\n \n\n \n(a)\nThe\nexercise price for a share of common stock underlying an Option shall be determined by the Board (or a committee thereof) at the\ntime such Option is granted, provided that the exercise price shall not be less than the closing price of the shares of common stock\non the TSX and any other stock exchange on which the shares of common stock are listed for trading.\n\n \n \n \n\n \n(b)\nOptions\nmay be exercisable for a term of up to ten (10) years.\n\n \n \n \n\n \n(c)\nOptions\nare not transferable or assignable.\n\n \n \n \n\n \n(d)\nAlthough\nthe majority of Options currently issued and outstanding are subject to varied vesting schedules (based on time and achievement of\ncertain milestones), unless the Board determines otherwise, Options issued pursuant to the Option Plan have no required vesting schedule.\n\n \n \n \n\n \n(e)\nIn\nthe event that a take-over bid or issuer bid is made for all or any of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, then the\nBoard may, by resolution, permit all outstanding Options to become immediately exercisable in order to permit shares of common stock\nissuable under such Options to be tendered to such bid.\n\n \n \n \n\n \n(f)\nSubject\nto the prior acceptance of the TSX (if applicable) and any other applicable regulatory authority and the requirements of the policies\nof the TSX, the Board may not, unless the approval of the Company’s disinterested stockholders has been obtained:\n\n \n\n \na.\nextend\nthe expiry date of unexercised Options held by any Insider; and\n\n \n \n \n\n \nb.\nincrease\nthe maximum number of shares of common stock that may be reserved under the Option Plan for issuance pursuant the exercise of Options\n(other than pursuant to any limitations set out in the Option Plan);\n\n \n\nAdditional\nkey terms on which Options may be granted are discussed in greater detail below.\n\n \n\n37\n\n \n\n* *\n\n*Limitations\non Grants*\n\n \n\nThe\nOption Plan limits insider participation such that the number of shares of common stock issued within a one-year period, and issuable\nat any time to insiders (as a group), under the Option Plan and any other security based compensation arrangement of the Company (including\nunder the RSU Plan), does not exceed 10% of issued and outstanding shares of common stock, unless disinterested stockholder approval\nis received therefor in accordance with the policies of the TSX.\n\n \n\nThe\nmaximum number of shares of common stock issuable to any one participant pursuant to the Option Plan, together with any other security\nbased compensation arrangement of the Company (including under the RSU Plan), within a 12-month period may not exceed 5% of the issued\nand outstanding shares of common stock, unless disinterested stockholder approval is received therefor in accordance with the policies\nof the TSX.\n\n \n\nThe\nannual grant of Options under the Option Plan to any one non-employee director, in combination with all other security based compensation\ngranted to such non-employee director, is limited to an annual equity award value (based on grant date fair value as determined by the\nBoard) of C$150,000 per non-employee director, provided that the total value (based on grant date fair value as determined by the Board)\nof Options issuable to any one non-employee director in any one year period may not exceed C$100,000.\n\n \n\n*Amendment\nof Outstanding Options*\n\n \n\nSubject\nto the prior approval of any applicable regulatory authorities and/or stock exchange and the consent of the holder of the Option affected\nthereby, the Board may amend or modify any outstanding Option in any manner to the extent that the Board would have had the authority\nto initially grant the Option as so modified or amended, including without limitation, to change the date or dates as of which, or the\nprice at which, an Option becomes exercisable; provided, however, that the consent of the holder of the Option shall not be required\nwhere the rights of the holder of the Option are not adversely affected.\n\n \n\n*Termination\nof Employment or Service*\n\n \n\nAn\nOptionee is no longer entitled to participate under the Option Plan if the Optionee (a) ceases to be a director or senior officer of\nthe Company and any of its designated affiliates (and is not or does not continue to be an employee thereof); or (b) ceases to be employed\nby the Company or any of its designated affiliates or to provide consulting services to the Company or any of its designated affiliates\n(and is not or does not continue to be a director or senior officer thereof) for any reason, including if an Optionee’s employment\nat the Company is terminated without cause (collectively, “**Termination**”). An Optionee may, but only within 12 months\nnext succeeding such Termination, exercise his or her Options to the extent that he or she was entitled to exercise such Options at the\ndate of such Termination, provided that in no event shall such right extend beyond the Option Period (as defined in the Option Plan),\nsubject to adjustment. Upon the death of an Optionee, any Options previously granted to such Optionee will be exercisable for a period\nof one year (365 days) from such death, and the Optionee’s estate shall be entitled to exercise the rights of the Optionee under\nthe Option, provided that in no event will such rights extend beyond the original Option Period.\n\n \n\n*Blackout\nPeriod*\n\n \n\nIf\nan Option is terminated when the Optionee is prohibited from exercising such Option due to trading restrictions imposed by the Company\nin accordance with its trading policies affecting trades by directors, officers or employees in the Company’s securities (a “**Blackout\nPeriod**”), the expiry date such the Option shall be extended to the date that is ten 10 business days following the end of such\nBlackout Period (the “**Extension Period**”). If an additional Blackout Period is subsequently imposed by the Company\nduring the Extension Period, then such Extension Period shall be deemed to commence following the end of such additional Blackout Period\nto enable the exercise of such Option within 10 business days following the end of the last imposed Blackout Period.\n\n \n\n*Dividend Equivalents*\n\n \n\nThe Board may provide in an award\nagreement evidencing a grant of RSUs that the grantee shall be entitled to receive, upon the Company’s payment of a cash dividend\non its outstanding shares of common stock, a cash payment for each RSU granted equal to the per-share dividend paid on the outstanding\nshares. Such Award Agreement may also provide that such cash payment will be deemed reinvested in additional RSUs at a price per unit\nequal to the fair market of the shares of common stock on the date that such dividend is paid. If there is not a sufficient number of\nshares available under the RSU Plan to satisfy the grant of additional RSUs, the Company will satisfy the obligation in cash.\n\n \n\n*Amendment\nProvisions*\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard has the power to approve the following amendments to the Option Plan, subject to receipt of any required stockholder or regulatory\napproval: (i) any amendment to the number of securities issuable under the Option Plan, including an increase to a fixed maximum number\nof securities or a change from a fixed maximum number of securities to a fixed maximum percentage; (ii) any change to the definition\nof “Participants” which would have the potential of narrowing or broadening or increasing Insider participation; (iii) any\naddition of a cashless exercise feature, payable in cash or securities, which does not provide for a full deduction in the number of\nunderlying securities from the Option Plan; (iv) the addition of a DSU or RSU or any other provision which results in participants receiving\nsecurities while no cash consideration is received by the Company; and (v) any other amendments that may lead to significant or unreasonable\ndilution in the Company’s outstanding securities or may provide additional benefits to participants, especially to Insiders at\nthe expense of the Company and its existing stockholders.\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard has the power to make all such other amendments to the Option Plan, without the approval of stockholders, subject to receipt of\nrequisite regulatory approval, where required, including, without limitation: (i) amendments of a housekeeping nature; (ii) the addition\nof, or change to, the vesting provisions of an Option or the Option Plan; (iii) a change to the termination provisions of an Option or\nthe Option Plan which does not entail an extension beyond the original expiry date; and (iv) a change required to comply with the requirements\nof any regulatory or governmental agency or applicable stock exchange or as a result of changes in the policies of the TSX, or such other\nstock exchange on which the Company’s securities are listed, relating to incentive stock options.\n\n \n\nThe\nfull text of the Option Plan is attached hereto as Schedule “C.”\n\n \n\n38\n\n \n\n** **\n\n**Description\nof the RSU Plan**\n\n** **\n\n*Purpose*\n\n \n\nThe\npurpose of the RSU Plan is to attract and retain highly qualified directors, officers, service providers and other persons designated\nby the Board (collectively, “**Grantees**”), and to motivate such Grantees to serve the Company and its affiliates and\nto expend maximum effort to improve the business results and earnings of the Company, by granting RSUs to such Grantees as an opportunity\nto acquire or increase a direct proprietary interest in the operations and future success of the Company. Any of these awards of RSUs\nmay, but need not, be made as performance incentives to reward attainment of annual or long-term performance goals in accordance with\nthe terms hereof (as such performance goals are specified in the RSU Plan). The RSU Plan is intended to complement the Company’s\nother security-based compensation plans by allowing the Company to offer a broader range of incentives to diversify and customize the\nrewards for management and staff to promote long-term retention.\n\n \n\n*Shares\nsubject to the RSU Plan*\n\n \n\nThe\nRSU Plan currently provides for a fixed maximum limit of 2,648,555 shares (adjusted to reflect the 35:1 reverse stock split) available\nthereunder and the Amended and Restated RSU Plan, if approved by the stockholders, will provide for a fixed maximum limit of 3,501,396\nshares of common stock that may be issuable thereunder, representing 7.5% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of common\nstock as at April 30, 2026.\n\n \n\nAs\nat December 31, 2025, there were 332,209 RSUs outstanding under the RSU Plan, representing 0.8% of the issued and\noutstanding shares of common stock (on a post-consolidation basis). Accordingly, as at December 31, 2025, there were an additional\n1,803,839 unallocated RSUs available for issuance under the RSU Plan, equal to 4.5% of the currently issued and outstanding\nshares of common stock (on a post-consolidation basis).\n\n \n\n*Limitations\non Grants*\n\n \n\nThe\nRSU Plan limits insider participation such that the number of shares of common stock issued within a one-year period, and issuable at\nany time to insiders (as a group), under the RSU Plan and any other security based compensation arrangement of the Company (including\nunder the Option Plan), does not exceed 10% of issued and outstanding shares of common stock, unless disinterested stockholder approval\nis received therefor in accordance with the policies of the TSX.\n\n \n\nThe\nmaximum number of shares of common stock issuable to any one Grantee pursuant to the RSU Plan, together with any other security based\ncompensation arrangement of the Company (including under the Option Plan), within a 12-month period may not exceed 5% of the issued and\noutstanding shares of common stock, unless disinterested stockholder approval is received therefor in accordance with the policies of\nthe TSX.\n\n \n\nThe\nannual grant of RSUs under the RSU Plan to any one non-employee director, in combination with all other security based compensation granted\nto such non-employee director, is limited to an annual equity award value (based on grant date fair value as determined by the Board)\nof C$150,000 per non-employee director, provided that the total value (based on grant date fair value as determined by the Board) of\nOptions issuable to any one non-employee director in any one year period shall not exceed C$100,000.\n\n \n\n*Vesting*\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard may, in its sole discretion, establish a period (a “**Vesting Period**”) applicable to such RSUs, subject to a minimum\nVesting Period of one (1) year. Each RSU award may be subject to a different Vesting Period. The Board may, in its sole discretion,\nprescribe restrictions in addition to or other than the expiration of the Vesting Period, including the satisfaction of corporate or\nindividual performance objectives, which may be applicable to all or any portion of the RSUs. The performance criteria will be established\nby the Board in its sole discretion. The Board may, in its sole discretion, revise the performance criteria. Notwithstanding the foregoing:\n(i) RSUs shall vest in full from a period beginning on the date of grant of an RSU (the “**Grant Date**”) to the date\nwhich is not later than three (3) years from the Grant Date; (ii) RSUs for which vesting may be accelerated by achieving performance\ntargets shall vest in full from a period beginning on the Grant Date to the date which is not later than three (3) years from the Grant\nDate; and (iii) at the election of an Outside Director (as defined in the RSU Plan) at the time the RSUs are granted, (A) RSUs may vest\nin full from a period beginning on the Grant Date to the date which is not later than three (3) years from the Grant Date and (B) if\nno election is made, upon the earlier of a Change of Control (as defined in the RSU Plan) or his or her resignation from the Board.\n\n \n\n39\n\n \n\n \n\n*Burn\nRate*\n\n \n\nThe\nCompany’s Burn Rate under the RSU Plan was as follows:\n\n \n\nYear \n2025  \n2024  \n2023 \n\nBurn Rate \n 0.62% \n 2.86% \n 3.87%\n\n \n\nThe\nBurn Rate is calculated by dividing the number of RSUs granted under the RSU Plan during the relevant fiscal year by the weighted average\nnumber of securities outstanding for the applicable fiscal year, as described in Section 613(p) of the TSX Company Manual.\n\n \n\n*Termination\nof Employment or Service, Change of Control*\n\n \n\nA\nGrantee is no longer entitled to participate under the RSU Plan if the Grantee’s service as an employee of or service provider\nto the Company or an affiliate is terminated.\n\n \n\nRestrictions\non any RSUs shall lapse immediately and become fully vested in the Grantee upon a Change of Control. If an employment is terminated with\ncause, the Company may, within 30 days, annul an award if the Grantee is an employee of the Company or an affiliate thereof. If a Grantee’s\nemployment is terminated with or without cause, unless the Board otherwise provides in an award agreement or in writing after the award\nagreement is issued, any RSUs that have not vested and will not vest within 30 days from the date of termination, or with respect to\nwhich all applicable restrictions and conditions have not lapsed, shall immediately be deemed forfeited. Upon the death of a Grantee,\nany RSUs granted to said Grantee which, prior to the Grantee’s death, have not vested, will immediately vest, subject to the pass\nof one (1) year from the Grant Date, and the Grantee’s estate shall be entitled to receive payment in accordance with the terms\nof the RSU Plan. Notwithstanding any other provision in the RSU Plan, the period in which the Grantee’s estate may make such a\nclaim of entitlement must not exceed one (1) year from the date of the Grantee’s death.\n\n \n\nIf\nany shares of common stock covered by an award are forfeited, surrendered, cancelled or otherwise terminated without delivery of any\nshares of common stock subject thereto, then the number of shares of common stock counted against the aggregate number of shares of common\nstock available under the RSU Plan with respect to such award shall, to the extent of any such forfeiture or termination, again be available\nfor making awards under the RSU Plan. Neither awards nor any rights under any such awards shall be assignable or transferable.\n\n \n\n*Fair\nMarket Value*\n\n \n\nThe\nfair market value for a share of common stock upon the vesting of an RSU granted under the RSU Plan is determined as follows:\n\n \n\n \n(a)\nif\non the Grant Date or other determination date the shares of common stock are listed on the TSX or another established national or\nregional stock exchange or is publicly traded on an established securities market, the fair market value of such shares of common\nstock shall be the closing price of the shares of common stock on such exchange or in such market (if there is more than one such\nexchange or market the Board shall determine the appropriate exchange or market) on the Grant Date or such other determination date\n(or if there is no such reported closing price, the fair market value shall be the mean between the highest bid and lowest asked\nprices or between the high and low sale prices on such trading day) or, if no sale of shares of common stock is reported for such\ntrading day, on the next preceding day on which any sale shall have been reported; or\n\n \n \n \n\n \n(b)\nif\nthe shares of common stock are not listed on such an exchange, quoted on such system or traded on such a market, fair market value\nshall be the value of a share of common stock as determined by the Board in good faith.\n\n \n\n40\n\n \n\n \n\nSubject\nto the prior acceptance of the TSX (if applicable) and any other applicable regulatory authority and the requirements of the policies\nof the TSX, the Board may not, unless the approval of the Company’s stockholders has been obtained:\n\n \n\n \n(a)\nremove\nor exceed the 10% limit to Insider participation;\n\n \n \n \n\n \n(b)\ndesignate\nadditional categories of Grantees;\n\n \n \n \n\n \n(c)\nchange\nthe amendment provision in the RSU Plan;\n\n \n \n \n\n \n(d)\nincrease\nthe maximum number of shares of common stock that may be reserved under the RSU Plan (other than pursuant to any limitations set\nout in the RSU Plan);\n\n \n \n \n\n \n(e)\ngrant\nto Insiders (as a group), within a 12-month period, an aggregate number of RSUs which, taken together with any other Security Based\nCompensation (as defined in the RSU Plan) granted to such Insiders, exceeds 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock,\ncalculated at the date the RSU is granted or issued to any Insider;\n\n \n \n \n\n \n(f)\ngrant\nto any one eligible person under the RSU Plan, within a 12-month period, an aggregate number of RSUs which, taken together with any\nother Security Based Compensation granted to such person, exceeds 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, calculated\nat the date the RSU is granted or issued to such person; and\n\n \n \n \n\n \n(g)\nincrease\nthe maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the vesting of RSUs and other Security Based Compensation\ngranted or issued to Insiders (as a group) which exceeds 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock;\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard may, however, without stockholder approval, make the following amendments to the RSU Plan: (i) amendments of a housekeeping nature,\nincluding to correct any ambiguity, defective provision, error or omission in the provisions of the Plan; (ii) changes to vesting provisions\nof RSUs; (iii) changes to the term of the RSU Plan or awards made thereunder (other than an extension for the benefit of an Insider);\n(iv) amendments to the terms and conditions necessary to ensure that the RSU Plan complies with the applicable regulatory requirements,\nincluding the requirements of the TSX, or such other stock exchange on which the Company’s securities are listed, in place from\ntime to time; or (v) changes to performance criteria.\n\n \n\n*Termination\nof the RSU Plan*\n\n \n\nThe\nRSU Plan shall terminate automatically after ten years and may be terminated on any earlier date or extended by the Board, subject to\nthe requirements of any applicable stock exchange(s).\n\n \n\nFor\na summary of the RSU Plan Amendments, please see “*Approval of the Amended and Restated Restricted Stock Unit Incentive Plan—RSU\nPlan Amendments*” above. The full text of the Amended and Restated RSU Plan is attached hereto as Schedule “B.”\n\n \n\n41\n\n \n\n** **\n\n**Description\nof the DSU Plan**\n\n \n\nThe\nfollowing is a summary of the DSU Plan. The summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the DSU Plan, as attached as Schedule\n“D” to this Proxy Statement.\n\n \n\nThe\nDSU Plan is available to any director of the Company, referred to in the DSU Plan as an “**Eligible Person.**” The DSU\nPlan provides that a committee of the Board to which the Board has delegated responsibility for the administration of the DSU Plan may\ngrant DSUs as set out in the DSU Plan to Eligible Persons in its sole discretion.\n\n \n\nAn\nEligible Person may elect to defer all or any portion of the retainer or compensation that would otherwise be received by the Eligible\nPerson in cash, by electing to receive such retainer or compensation in the form of DSUs, by delivering to the Company an Election Notice\n(as defined in the DSU Plan) not later than December 31 of the year preceding the first date of any period in respect of which the retainer\nor incentive compensation would be earned. An Eligible Person who elects to do so will be awarded the number of DSUs determined by dividing\nthe dollar amount of the retainer or compensation to be deferred by the fair market value of a share of common stock as at the award\ndate.\n\n \n\nDSUs\ngranted to an Eligible Person shall be credited to their Share Unit Account (as defined in the DSU Plan) on the grant date. From time\nto time, the Share Unit Account shall be credited with dividend DSUs as additional DSUs.\n\n \n\nEach\nDSU shall vest (become a “**Vested DSUs**”) on the vesting date set out in the respective grant agreement. Eligible Persons\nshall elect a redemption date for DSUs as set out in the DSU Plan (the “**Redemption Date**”) and if a Redemption Date\nis not elected, the DSUs shall be redeemed on December 15 of the year following the year in which the Eligible Person ceases to hold\nall offices and employment with the Corporation.\n\n \n\nThe\nCompany shall redeem the Vested DSUs elected to be redeemed on the Redemption Date by paying an amount (the **“Share Unit Amount”**)\nequal to: (A) the number of Vested DSUs elected to be redeemed multiplied by (B) the fair market value minus (C) applicable withholdings.\nThe Deferred Share Unit Amount shall be paid as a lump sum by the Company within ten business days of the Redemption Date.\n\n \n\n**Policies\nand Practices for Granting Certain Equity Awards**\n\n \n\nWhile\nwe do not have a formal written policy in place regarding the timing of awards of Options in relation to the disclosure of material non-public\ninformation, the Board does not seek to time equity grants to take advantage of information, either positive or negative, about the Company\nthat has not been publicly disclosed. It has been our practice to grant equity awards to our officers and directors upon their appointment.\nWe intend to issue equity grants to our officers and/or directors at the same time each year, typically at our first meeting of the Board\nof Directors each fiscal year. Option grants are effective on the date the award determination is made by the Board, and the exercise\nprice of Options is the closing market price of Bunker Hill common stock on the immediately preceding business day of the grant.\n\n \n\nDuring\nthe fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, we did not award any Options to an NEO in the period beginning four business days before the\nfiling of a periodic report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, or the filing or furnishing of a current report on Form 8-K that discloses material\nnon-public information, and ending one business day after the filing or furnishing of such report.\n\n \n\n**DELINQUENT\nSECTION 16 REPORTS**\n\n \n\nSection\n16(a) of the Exchange Act requires every person who beneficially own more than 10% of any class of any equity security (other than an\nexempted security) that is registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, or who is a director or an executive officer of the\nissuer of such security, to file initial reports of beneficial ownership and reports of changes in beneficial ownership with the SEC.\nBecause the Company does not have a class of equity securities that is registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, no such\npersons are required by SEC rules to file reports of beneficial ownership in respect of the equity securities of the Company.\n\n \n\n42\n\n \n\n** **\n\n**AUDIT\nCOMMITTEE**\n\n \n\nThe\nAudit Committee is responsible for monitoring the Company’s accounting and financial reporting practices and procedures, the adequacy\nof internal accounting controls and procedures, the quality and integrity of financial statements and for directing the auditors’\nexamination of specific areas.\n\n \n\n**Composition\nof the Audit Committee**\n\n \n\nAs\nof the date of this Proxy Statement, the Audit Committee consists of Mark Cruise, Kelli Kast and Pamela Saxton.

These communications and discussions\nare intended to assist the Audit Committee in overseeing the financial reporting and disclosure process.\n\n \n\nSecond,\nthe Audit Committee discussed with MNP LLP the independence of MNP LLP and received from MNP LLP the letter required by applicable standards\nof the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board for independent auditor communications with audit committees, as may be modified or\nsupplemented, concerning its independence as required under applicable independence standards for auditors of public companies. This\ndiscussion and disclosure assisted the Audit Committee in evaluating such independence.\n\n \n\nFinally,\nthe Audit Committee reviewed and discussed, with the Company’s management and MNP LLP, the Company’s audited consolidated\nbalance sheets as at December 31, 2025, and consolidated statements of income/(loss), cash flows and shareholders’ equity for the\nfiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and the related management’s discussion and analysis included in the Company’s\nAnnual Report on Form 10-K.\n\n \n\nBased\non the discussions with MNP LLP concerning the audit, their independence, the financial statement review, and such other matters deemed\nrelevant and appropriate by the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the Company’s financial statements\nand the related management’s discussion and analysis be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal\nyear ended December 31, 2025.\n\n \n\nSubmitted\non behalf of the Audit Committee,\n\n \n\nMark\nCruise\n\nKelli Kast\n\nPamela Saxton\n\n \n\n*\nThe information contained in this Audit Committee Report shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material” or “filed”\nor incorporated by reference in future filings with the SEC, or subject to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, except\nto the extent that the Company specifically requests that the information be treated as soliciting material or specifically incorporates\nit by reference into a document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or the Exchange Act.\n\n** **\n\n44\n\n \n\n** **\n\n**CORPORATE\nGOVERNANCE**\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard and the Company’s management are committed to sound corporate governance practices, which are both in the interest of its\nstockholders and contribute to effective and efficient decision-making. National Policy 58-201 – *Corporate Governance Guidelines*\nestablishes corporate governance practices that apply to all publicly listed companies. These guidelines are not intended to be prescriptive\nbut to be used by issuers in developing their own corporate governance practices.\n\n \n\nBunker\nHill’s corporate governance practices comply with applicable securities regulatory requirements, and we continually monitor legal\nrequirements and developments across the mining industry to ensure we follow best practices.\n\n \n\n**Board\nLeadership Structure**\n\n \n\nMr.\nCruise, the Lead Independent Director, is responsible for chairing regular meetings of the non-management Directors and assumes other\nresponsibilities which the non-management Directors have designated. In the absence of the Chair, the Lead Independent Director shall\nchair any meeting of the Board, and in the absence of both the Chair and the Lead Independent Director, the members of the Board present\nmay appoint a chair from their number for such meeting.\n\n \n\nMr.\nWilliams is the Executive Chairman, and Mr. Ash is the President and CEO. The Board believes that having different individuals serving\nin the separate roles of Executive Chairman and President and CEO is in the best interest of stockholders in the Company’s current\ncircumstances because it reflects the Executive Chairman’s oversight of strategic and commercial development, Board functions and\nprocesses and all financing activities, and the CEO’s responsibility for management and oversight of mining operations, project\nexecution and U.S.-based strategic engagement, specifically with key stakeholders. Additionally, the Board designates a Lead Independent\nDirector annually to ensure open dialogue between the independent directors is undertaken, and communication from the independent directors\nto the Executive Chairman has a clear line of responsibility.\n\n \n\n**Board’s\nRole in Risk Oversight**\n\n** **\n\nThe\nBoard considers the identification, understanding, and management of risk as essential elements for the successful management of the\nCompany. The Company faces a variety of risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk and operational risk. The Board believes an effective\nrisk management system will: (i) timely identify the material risks that the Company faces; (ii) communicate necessary information with\nrespect to material risks to senior executives and, as appropriate, to the Board or relevant committees of the Board; (iii) implement\nappropriate and responsive risk management strategies consistent with the Company’s risk profile; and (iv) integrate risk management\ninto the Company’s decision-making.\n\n \n\nRisk\noversight is undertaken on a regular basis by the Board and the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee periodically reviews and discusses\nwith management their policies and procedures for the identification, assessment and management of business risks. The Audit Committee\nalso has oversight responsibility with respect to the integrity of the Company’s financial reporting process and systems of internal\ncontrol regarding finance and accounting, as well as its financial statements. The Audit Committee makes periodic reports to the Board\nregarding briefings provided by management and advisors as well as on the committee’s own analysis and conclusions regarding the\nadequacy of the Company’s risk management processes.\n\n \n\nAt\nthe management level, regular internal risk reviews provide reliable and timely information to the Board and management regarding the\nCompany’s effectiveness in identifying and appropriately controlling risks.\n\n \n\nThe\nCompany also has a comprehensive internal risk framework, which facilitates performance of risk oversight by the Board and the Audit\nCommittee. The risk management framework is designed to:\n\n \n\n●provide\nthat risks are identified, monitored, reported, and quantified properly;\n\n●define\nand communicate the types and amount of risk the Company is willing to take;\n\n●communicate\nto the appropriate management level the type and amount of risk taken;\n\n●maintain\nrisk management processes that are independent of the risk-taking activities; and\n\n●promote\na strong risk management culture that encourages a focus on risk-aware performance.\n\n \n\nIn\naddition to the formal compliance program, the Board encourages management to promote a corporate culture that incorporates risk management\ninto the Company’s corporate strategy and day-to-day business operations. The Board also continually works, with the input of the\nCompany’s executive officers, to assess and analyze the most likely areas of future risk for the Company.\n\n \n\n**Board\nIndependence**\n\n \n\nNational\nInstrument 58-101 – *Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices*(“**NI 58-101**”) defines an “independent\ndirector” as a director who has no direct or indirect “material relationship” with the issuer. A “material relationship”\nis a relationship which could, in the view of the Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a member’s independent\njudgment.\n\n \n\nThe\nshares of common stock are currently traded on the TSX, under the symbol BNKR and are quoted for trading on the OTCQB under the symbol\nBHLL, and as such, is not subject to the independence rules of any national securities exchange which requires that a majority of a listed\ncompany’s directors and specified committees of its Board meet independence standards prescribed by such rules. For purposes of\nthis disclosure, we have selected the definition of “independence” and the requirements for independence of the Board and\nof specified committees of the Board set by the NYSE American LLC and as set forth in the NYSE American Company Guide.\n\n \n\n45\n\n \n\n \n\nThe\nBoard is committed to acting independently and in the interests of the Company’s stockholders and other stakeholders. The Board\nadheres to the following structures and processes in order to ensure that the Board is able to function independently of management:\n\n \n\n \n●\nThe\nappointment of a lead independent director.\n\n \n\n \n●\nThe\nArticles of the Company provide that any director may call a meeting of the Board.\n\n \n\n \n●\nNon-management\ndirectors have regularly scheduled meetings in the absence of management.\n\n \n\n \n●\nFour\nof the six director nominees (66%) are independent within the meaning of NI 58-101.\n\n \n\nAt\nthe Meeting, stockholders of the Company will be asked to elect all the proposed Nominees as directors of the Company. Following the\nMeeting, it is expected that four of the six directors (namely, Messrs. Cruise and Child, and Ms. Saxton and Ms. Kast) will be considered\nindependent (assuming the election of the Nominees) within the meaning of NI 58-101 and section 803A of the NYSE American Company Guide.\nMessrs. Ash and Williams, if elected as directors of the Company at the Meeting, will not be considered independent as they have a “material\nrelationship” with the Company.\n\n \n\n**Board\nMandate**\n\n** **\n\nThe\nBoard has adopted a Board Mandate, which sets out how the Board delineates its role and responsibilities. A copy of the Board Mandate\nis available under the “Corporate Governance” section of Bunker Hill’s website under the tab “ESG”.\n\n \n\n**Position\nDescriptions**\n\n \n\n*Chairman\nof the Board*\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard has developed and adopted a written position description for the Chairman of the Board, which provides that the Chairman is responsible\nfor, among other things, chairing all meetings of the Board in a manner that promotes meaningful discussion, providing leadership to\nenhance the Board’s effectiveness and acting as a liaison between the Board and management.\n\n \n\n*Chief\nExecutive Officer*\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard has developed and adopted a written position description for the CEO, which provides that the CEO’s primary role is to take\noverall supervisory and managerial responsibility for the day to day operations of the Company’s business and to manage the Company\nin an effective, efficient and forward-looking way and to fulfill the priorities, goals and objectives determined by the Board in the\ncontext of the Company’s strategic plans, budgets and responsibilities, with a view to increasing shareholder value. The CEO is\nresponsible to the Board.\n\n \n\n*Committee\nChairs*\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard has not developed a written position description for the chairs of the Board’s committees, however, all committee mandates\nare set forth in each of the standing committee’s charters.\n\n \n\n**Board\nDiversity**\n\n \n\nAlong\nwith many companies in the mining industry, Bunker Hill advocates the value of diversity in outlook, governance, performance and decision-making.\nThis takes its shape in many ways with the most prominent being gender diversity. From a gender diversity perspective, 40% of the director\nnominees are female. Within its management ranks, 20% of the Company’s executives are female as of the date hereof.\n\n \n\n**Majority\nVoting Policy**\n\n \n\nVoting\nfor director elections is on an individual basis, and the Company has adopted a majority voting policy to enhance director accountability.\nPursuant to the majority voting policy, if, in an uncontested election of directors of the Company, any particular nominee for director\nreceives a greater number of votes withheld than the number of votes in favor of the nominee, then for purposes of the policy the nominee\nshall be considered not to have received the support of the stockholders, even though duly elected as a matter of corporate law, and\nsuch nominee shall promptly tender his or her resignation to the Chairman of the Board following the meeting.\n\n \n\n**Insider\nTrading Arrangements and Hedging Policies**\n\n \n\nWe\nmaintain a securities trading policy that provides guidelines and restrictions applicable to (i) trading in securities of the Company\nand (ii) communication of material non-public information. The policy prohibits directors and officers of the Company from, among other\nthings, hedging or engaging in derivative transactions involving the Company’s equity securities.\n\n \n\n**Other\nPublic Company Directorships**\n\n \n\nCertain\nof the proposed Nominees for election as directors of the Company are also current directors of other reporting issuers (or equivalent)\nin a jurisdiction or a foreign jurisdiction as follows:\n\n \n\nName\nof Director \nOther\nreporting issuer (or equivalent\nin a foreign jurisdiction) \nTrading\nMarket\n\nMark Cruise \nBP Silver Corp \nTSXV\n\n  \nNiCAN Limited \nTSXV\n\n  \nVelocity Minerals Ltd. \nTSXV\n\n  \nVolta Metals Ltd. \nCSE\n\nPamela Saxton \nArizona Metals Corp. \nTSX\n\n  \nRare Element Resources Ltd. \nOTCQB\n\n \n\n**Orientation\nand Continuing Education**\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard is responsible for providing a comprehensive orientation and education program for new directors which fully sets out:\n\n \n\n \n●\nthe\nrole of the Board;\n\n \n\n \n●\nthe\nnature and operation of the business of the Company; and\n\n \n\n \n●\nthe\ncontribution which individual directors are expected to make to the Board in terms of both time and resource commitments.\n\n \n\n46\n\n \n\n \n\nIn\naddition, the Board is also responsible for providing continuing education opportunities to existing directors so that individual directors\ncan maintain and enhance their abilities and ensure that their knowledge of the business of the Company remains current.\n\n \n\nMost\nimportantly, the members of the Board are all invited to attend the weekly executive management updates—known as the business plan\nreview (BPR), by video conference to ensure that they remain fully appraised of the progress of the Company towards its immediate and\nlonger-term strategic objectives.\n\n \n\n**Ethical\nBusiness Conduct**\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard has adopted a code of business conduct and ethics (the “**Code of Ethics**”) that will apply to its principal executive\nofficer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer or controller and to people performing similar functions. The Code\nof Ethics is designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote honest and ethical conduct, full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable\ndisclosure, compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, prompt internal reporting of violations of the code and accountability\nfor adherence to the code. The Board and the Audit Committee are responsible for overseeing compliance with the Code of Ethics. The chair\nof the Audit Committee and the Ethics Officer each report directly to the Board in this capacity. In addition, the Board has adopted\npolicies and procedures for the submission by employees, directors or officers of concerns regarding suspected violations of the Code\nof Conduct or applicable laws or regulations; and the receipt and treatment of such concerns.\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard takes appropriate measures to exercise independent judgement when considering any transactions and agreements. Representatives\nof the Company who are subject to the Code of Ethics must immediately notify the chair of the Audit Committee or Ethics Officer of the\nexistence of any actual or potential conflict of interest. The circumstances will be reviewed to determine whether a conflict of interest\nis present and, if so, what course of action to take.\n\n \n\nThe\nCode of Ethics is available on the “Corporate Governance” section of the Company’s website www.bunkerhillmining.com\nunder the tab “ESG”, and the Company will provide a copy, without charge, to any person upon receipt of a written request\nfor such, delivered to the Company’s corporate headquarters. All such requests should be sent care of Bunker Hill Mining Corp.,\n1009 McKinley Avenue, Kellogg, Idaho 83837.\n\n \n\n**Corporate\nGovernance and Nominating Committee; Nomination of Directors**\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard has established the GNC Committee, which is charged with performing an annual evaluation of the effectiveness of the Board as a\nwhole, the committees of the Board and the contributions of individual directors. The GNC Committee is currently comprised of Mses. Kast\n(Chair) and Saxton and Mr. Cruise, all of whom are independent directors. The full text of the charter of the GNC Committee is available\non the Company’s website www.bunkerhillmining.com.\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard seeks to achieve a balance of knowledge, experience, and capability. When considering director candidates, the Board considers\na number of factors, including, among others, the following (although candidates need not possess all the following characteristics and\nnot all factors are weighted equally):\n\n \n\n \n●\nability\nto attend regular and special Board and committee meetings and willingness to perform the duties of a director;\n\n \n\n \n●\nfine\nmoral character, good personal and business reputation;\n\n \n\n \n●\nindustry\nknowledge and contacts in industries served by the Company;\n\n \n\n \n●\nability\nto be responsible, fair-minded, reliable, ethical and possess high integrity;\n\n \n\n \n●\nprior\nexperience as a director;\n\n \n\n \n●\nsenior-level\nmanagement experience; and\n\n \n\n \n●\npossession\nof specific skills in electronic data processing, internal auditing, accounting, personnel, finance, etc., and/or demonstrated business\nor financial institution consulting expertise and experience.\n\n \n\nThe\nBoard will periodically assess its appropriate size and whether any vacancies are expected due to retirement or otherwise. If vacancies\nare anticipated, or otherwise arise, or the size of the Board is expanded, the Board will consider various potential director candidates.\nCandidates may come to the attention of the Board through current Board members or management, stockholders or other people. These candidates\nwill be evaluated at regular or special meetings of the Board and may be considered at any point during the year.\n\n \n\nThe\nGNC Committee considers candidates for directors by annual review of the credentials of nominees for re-election to be named in the Management’s\nproxy materials. The annual review evaluates the effectiveness of the Board and the performance of each director, the continuing validity\nof the credentials underlying the appointment of each director, and the continuing compliance with the eligibility rules under applicable\nconflict-of-interest guidelines.\n\n \n\nThe\nGNC Committee, whenever considered appropriate, may direct the Chairman to advise each nominee director, prior to appointment to the\nBoard, of the credentials underlying the recommendation of such nominee director’s candidacy. The GNC Committee may recommend to\nthe Board at the annual meeting of the Board, the allocation of Board members to each of the Board committees, and where a vacancy occurs\nat any time in the membership of any Board committee, the GNC Committee may recommend to the Board a member to fill such vacancy. The\nGNC Committee monitors on an ongoing basis and, when appropriate, makes recommendations to the Board regarding the Company’s corporate\ngovernance.\n\n** **\n\n47\n\n \n\n** **\n\n**Other\nBoard Committees**\n\n \n\nIn\naddition to the Audit Committee, GNC Committee and Compensation Committee, the Board has an ad hoc Growth Committee. The Growth Committee,\nwhen assembled, reviews business development opportunities on behalf of the Board and meets in response to specific time-sensitive strategic\nrequirements only.\n\n \n\n**Stockholder\nCommunications with the Board**\n\n \n\nAny\nstockholder wishing to communicate with the Board or any individual director may do so by contacting the Corporate Secretary at the address\nlisted below:\n\n \n\nBunker\nHill Mining Corp.\n\n1009\nMcKinley Avenue\n\nKellogg,\nIdaho 83837\n\nAttention:\nCorporate Secretary\n\n \n\nAll\ncommunications will be forwarded to the Board or the relevant Board member.\n\n \n\n**INDEBTEDNESS\nOF DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS**\n\n \n\nAt\nno time during the period ended December 31, 2025, and at any time from January 1, 2026 to the date hereof, was a current or former executive\nofficer or director of the Company, any proposed Nominee for election as a director of the Company, or any of their respective associates\nindebted to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or indebted to another entity where the indebtedness is the subject of a guarantee,\nsupport agreement, letter of credit or other similar arrangement or understanding provided by the Company or any of its subsidiaries.\n\n \n\n**MANAGEMENT\nCONTRACTS**\n\n \n\nThe\nCompany’s management functions are performed by its NEOs, and the Company has no management agreements or arrangements in place\nunder which such management functions are performed by persons other than the NEOs.\n\n \n\n**INTEREST\nOF INFORMED PERSONS IN MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS**\n\n \n\nThere\nwere no material transactions, or series of similar transactions, during the 2025 Fiscal Year, or any currently proposed transactions,\nor series of similar transactions, to which the Company was or is to be a party, in which the amount involved exceeded the lesser of\n$120,000 or one percent of the average of the issuer’s total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years and in\nwhich any director, executive officer or any security holder who is known to the Company to own of record or beneficially more than five\npercent of the shares of common stock, or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, had an interest.\n\n \n\n**Review,\nApproval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Parties**\n\n** **\n\nThe\nCompany’s Audit Committee charter provides that the Audit Committee will review all related party transactions.

The fact that a stockholder proposal is received in\na timely manner does not ensure its inclusion in the proxy materials, as the proposal must satisfy all requirements of the proxy rules\nfor inclusion.\n\n \n\nIf\na stockholder proposal is not submitted to the Company by January 21, 2027, the Company may still grant discretionary proxy authority\nto vote on a stockholder proposal if such proposal is received by the Company by April 6, 2027 in accordance with Rule 14a-4(c)(1) of\nRegulation 14A of the Exchange Act.\n\n \n\nIf\na stockholder wishes to nominate a candidate for director at the Company’s 2026 annual meeting of stockholders and the nomination\nis not intended to be included in the Company’s proxy statement and form of proxy relating to that meeting, the stockholder must\ngive advance notice to the Company within the time periods set forth in the Company’s bylaws and must comply with the other requirements\nset forth in the bylaws. Subject to certain exceptions, to be timely under the bylaws, a proposal must be received not less than 30,\nand not more than 65, days prior to the date of the annual meeting of stockholders, or, in the case of the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders,\nbetween April 26, 2027 and May 31, 2027, assuming the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders is held on June 30, 2027 provided, however,\nthat in the event that the annual meeting of shareholders is called for a date that is less than 50 days after the date (the “**Notice\nDate**”) on which the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting was made, notice by the Nominating Shareholder\nmay be made not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the Notice Date.\n\n \n\nIn\naddition to satisfying the foregoing requirements under our bylaws, to comply with the universal proxy rules, stockholders who intend\nto solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than our nominees for the 2026 annual meeting must provide notice that sets\nforth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act no later than April 20, 2025, unless the date of our 2027 annual\nmeeting has changed by more than 30 days calendar days from this year’s annual meeting in which case such notice will be due on\nthe later of 60 calendar days prior to the date of the annual meeting or the 10th calendar day following the day on which public announcement\nof the date of the annual meeting is first made.\n\n \n\nAll\nstockholder proposals should be submitted to the Company’s Corporate Secretary at 1009 McKinley Avenue, Kellogg, Idaho 83837.\n\n \n\n**HOUSEHOLDING\nOF PROXY MATERIALS**\n\n \n\nThe\nSEC’s rules permit companies and intermediaries such as brokers to satisfy delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual\nreports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement and annual report addressed\nto those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially provides extra convenience\nfor stockholders and cost savings for companies. Some brokers household proxy materials and annual reports, delivering a single proxy\nstatement and annual report to multiple stockholders sharing an address, although each stockholder will receive a separate proxy card.\nOnce a stockholder has received notice from his or her broker that it will be householding materials, householding will continue until\nthe stockholder is notified otherwise or revokes consent. If at any time a stockholder no longer wishes to participate in householding\nand would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement and annual report, the stockholder should notify his or her broker. If a stockholder\nwould like to receive a separate copy of this Proxy Statement or accompanying notice of annual meeting of stockholders or Annual Report\non Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, he or she should contact the Company by writing to the Corporate Secretary,\nBunker Hill Mining Corp., 1009 McKinley Avenue, Kellogg, Idaho 83837.\n\n \n\n**ADDITIONAL\nINFORMATION**\n\n \n\nThe\nCompany is subject to the informational requirements of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and, in accordance\ntherewith, files reports and other information with the SEC.

In addition, the number\nand kind of shares for which Awards are outstanding shall be adjusted proportionately and accordingly so that the proportionate interest\nof the Grantee immediately following such event shall, to the extent practicable, be the same as immediately before such event.
