Amended and Restated Restricted Stock Unit Incentive Plan
On September 18, 2025, Bunker Hill Mining Corp. (the “Company”) held its 2025 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). Pursuant to the vote described in Item 5.07 below, the stockholders of the Company approved at the Annual Meeting the amendment and restatement (the “Amended and Restated RSU Plan”) of the Company’s existing restricted stock unit incentive plan, with the only change being the increase of the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable thereunder from 33,909,921 shares to 92,699,433 shares (the “RSU Plan Amendment”). Upon such approval, the Amended and Restated RSU Plan became effective.
The foregoing description of the RSU Plan Amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Amended and Restated RSU Plan, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
Rolling Stock Option Plan
Also on September 18, 2025, pursuant to the vote described in Item 5.07 below, the stockholders ratified and approved the Company’s rolling stock option plan (the “Option Plan”) pursuant to which the maximum number of shares of common stock that may be reserved for issuance thereunder from time to time shall not exceed 10% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding from time to time. Pursuant to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange, a rolling stock option plan, such as the Option Plan, requires stockholder approval annually.
