Dividend Declaration

Tamarack's Board of Directors has declared a monthly cash dividend on its common shares ("Common Shares") of C$0.01275 per share in accordance with the Company's dividend policy. The dividend will be payable on February 14, 2025, to shareholders of record at the close of business on January 31, 2025. This monthly cash dividend is designated as an "eligible dividend" for Canadian income tax purposes.

NCIB Renewal

The Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") has approved Tamarack's application to renew its NCIB.

The Company had 523,051,704 Common Shares issued and outstanding as at January 6, 2025. The NCIB allows Tamarack to purchase up to 51,279,652 Common Shares of the Company (representing approximately 10% of the 512,796,526 issued and outstanding Common Shares that comprise the public float as of January 6, 2025) over a period of twelve months commencing on January 19, 2025. The NCIB will expire no later than January 18, 2026. The actual number of Common Shares which may be purchased pursuant to the NCIB will be determined by management of the Company. Any Common Shares that are purchased by Tamarack under the NCIB will be cancelled.

Under the NCIB, Common Shares may be repurchased in open market transactions on the TSX or alternative Canadian trading system in accordance with the rules of the TSX governing NCIBs. The price paid by the Company for any such common shares will be the prevailing market price at the time of purchase.

The total number of Common Shares the Company is permitted to reacquire is subject to a daily purchase limit of 663,380 Common Shares, representing 25% of the average daily trading volume of 2,653,522 Common Shares on the TSX calculated for the six-month period ended December 31, 2024. Notwithstanding the daily purchase limit, Tamarack may make one block purchase per calendar week which exceeds the daily repurchase restrictions.

The NCIB will continue to provide an additional tool for the reinvestment of excess free funds flow to increase long-term total shareholder returns. Tamarack believes that at times, the prevailing share price does not reflect the underlying value of the common shares and the repurchase of common shares represents an opportunity to enhance per share metrics. Tamarack remains focused on balancing debt repayment and delivering enhanced returns to shareholders.
