TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / September 17, 2026 / Rocky Shore Gold Ltd. ("Rocky Shore" or the "Company") (CSE:RSG)(OTCQB:RSGLF) announces that it is undertaking a non-brokered private placement (the "Offering") to raise aggregate gross proceeds of up to $5,000,000 through the sale of common shares of the Company that qualify as "flow-through shares" (as defined in subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) ("FT Shares") at a price of C$0.15 per FT Share.

The proceeds from the Offering will be used for the exploration and advancement of the Company's projects in central Newfoundland.

The FT Shares to be issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance, in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws. The Company may pay finder's fees on a portion of the Offering to eligible finders, subject to compliance with the policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange and applicable securities legislation.

Insiders of the Company may participate in the Offering. Any participation by insiders of the Company in the Offering will constitute a "related party transaction" under applicable Canadian securities laws. However, neither the fair market value of the subject matter, nor the fair market value of the consideration to be paid by insiders of the Company for the transaction, insofar as it involves the related party, is expected to exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization, and accordingly, the Company anticipates relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements applicable to related party transactions under applicable Canadian securities laws.

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to sell any of the securities in the United States. The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act") or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. Persons unless registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.
