Mr. Lafleur is a member of the Professional Engineers of Ontario and holds a Bachelor's degree in Mining Engineering from Laurentian University.

Mr. Lafleur, incoming COO of Integra commented: "I am excited to be joining the talented Integra team at a unique inflection point for the Company. There are several catalysts on the horizon to add value and significant growth including optimization of the cash-flowing Florida Canyon Mine as well as technical studies, development and permitting milestones for DeLamar and Nevada North. It is an excellent time to be active in the prolific Great Basin area of the U.S. and I look forward to executing on the Company's strategy of optimization and project advancement to help grow Integra into a premier U.S. focused precious metals producer."

George Salamis, President, CEO and Director of Integra commented: "Integra's rapid growth, fueled by the recent acquisition of the Florida Canyon Mine, requires strong leadership and operational expertise. Cliff's hands-on mining experience and deep understanding of mine optimization will be critical in unlocking value at Florida Canyon while also driving disciplined development at DeLamar and Nevada North. Cliff's addition strengthens our ability to deliver sustained production, maximize efficiency, and ultimately generate shareholder returns. We are thrilled to welcome Cliff to the Integra team at this pivotal time for the Company."

As COO, Mr. Lafleur will play a vital role in shaping the next phase of growth for Integra, focusing on several key areas:

• Technical Leadership: Together with the senior executive team and Integra board, lead all operational and technical decision making across Integra's portfolio spanning production, development, and exploration. Build a strong operational team and implement best practices to support the Company's strategy of becoming a leading U.S. focused precious metals producer.
• Operational Execution at Florida Canyon: Working with the mine management team, drive performance at Florida Canyon through strategic mine optimization, cost discipline, operational efficiency, and production enhancements to ensure long-term sustainable cash flow generation.
• Maximize Value of Development Portfolio: Leveraging deep expertise in mine building and commissioning, spearhead technical efforts at DeLamar and Nevada North, leading the two development stage projects through advanced technical studies, development and construction. Immediately provide executive level oversight of the ongoing Feasibility Study for DeLamar, which is expected to be completed mid-2025.
• Strategic Capital Allocation: Ensure that cash flow generated from Florida Canyon is strategically deployed to maximize shareholder value across Integra's portfolio, back into the mining operation itself as well as development activities, and ongoing growth initiatives.

The Company plans to release its formal 2025 operating and cost guidance mid-2025, allowing Mr. Lafleur time to onboard and familiarize himself with the Florida Canyon site and operations team, and properly assess the ongoing mine optimization studies.
