Tempus Announces Delisting from the TSX Venture Exchange

Perth, Australia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 22, 2023) - Tempus Resources Ltd (ASX: TMR) (TSXV: TMRR) (OTC Pink: TMRFF) ("Tempus" or the "Company") announces that, further to its news release dated November 6, 2023, it has received approval from the TSX Venture Exchange ("Exchange") to voluntary delist the ordinary shares ("Shares") of the Company (the "Delisting") and it is anticipated that the Shares will be delisted at the close of business on Wednesday, December 27, 2023.

The board of directors of Tempus has decided that it is in the Issuer's best interests to complete the Delisting due to the following factors:

• The Company believes that the minimal trading activity of the Shares on the Exchange no longer justifies the expense and administrative requirements associated with maintaining its dual listing;

• The majority of the Company's investors are Australian based. Accordingly, a single listing for the Company on the ASX will better serve investors and investments in the Company; and

• The Company's continuing ASX listing is expected to provide shareholders with a sufficiently liquid market

The Delisting will not affect the Tempus's listing on the Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX") and the Company's fully paid ordinary shares will continue to trade on the ASX under the symbol "TMR". Following the Delisting, the Company's shareholders may trade their Shares on the ASX after transferring such shares tothe Australian share register. Shareholders holding shares in Canadian brokerage accounts should contact their brokers to confirm details regarding the trading of TMR shares on the ASX.

After the Delisting date of December 27, 2023, and until a movement of shares to the Australian register is effected, shareholders on the Canadian register and beneficial shareholders holding securities through a Canadian Depositary for Securities ("CDS") participant / broker will not be able to trade their shares on the ASX, and their shareholdings will remain on the Canadian share register until the automatic closure of the register occurs. The Company's Canadian share register will, however, remain open until January 26, 2024‎, 2024, in order to enable shareholders and CDS participants concurrently on the Canadian share register to request, if they wish, to have their shares issued to a broker, or the Australian clearing and settlement system.

If CDS participants or shareholders on the Canadian register have not transferred their shares to the Australian share register by January 26, 2024, their holdings will be automatically moved to an Issuer-sponsored holding on the Australian share register and they will be sent an Issuer-sponsored holding statement from the Australian Registrar. Once this occurs, these shareholders will be able to sell their shares on the ASX by quoting their securityholder reference number to their broker. Canadian share certificates previously issued will become null and void at such time. Shareholders whose shares are already held on the Australian share register need to take no action.

Process to Request the Removal of Shares from Canada to Australia

CDS participants, or those with shares held by a broker within CDS, who wish to have their shares moved over to the Australian share register and issued to a broker/nominee within CHESS should arrange for the CDS participant to complete a withdrawal from CDS, and complete and submit a cross border removal form to TSX Trust, the Company's transfer agent.

The Canada to Australia removal form will be made available under the "Investors" section of the Company's website.

Registered shareholders are encouraged to contact TSX Trust for more information on the process via the information below:
