Such forward‐looking statements including but not limited to those with respect statements, to the price of gold, the timing andamount of future production, costs of production, reserve and resource determination and reserve conversion rates, involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which maycause the actual results, performance or achievement of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward‐lookingstatements. Such factors include, among others, risks relating to the integration of acquisitions, risk relating to international operations, risks relating to joint‐venture operations, the actual resultsof current exploration activities, conclusions of economic evaluations, changes in project and exploration parameters as plans continue to be refined and future prices of gold and silver.

Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated,estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward‐looking statements.

CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING ESTIMATES OF MEASURED, INDICATED & INFERRED RESOURCES

All statements in this presentation, other than statements of historical fact, are "forward-looking information" with respect to Otis Gold within the meaning of applicable securities laws, includingstatements that address potential quantity and/or grade of minerals, potential size and expansion of a mineralized zone, proposed timing of exploration and development plans, expected capitalcosts at Kilgore, expected gold and silver recoveries from the Kilgore, mineralized material, potential additions to the resource through additional drill testing, potential upgrade of inferred mineralresources to measured and indicated mineral resources, the potential for silver resources and intentions to pursue a silver resource study and beliefs regarding gold resources being contained withina larger property area. Forward-looking information is often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as "seek", "anticipate", "plan", "continue", "planned", "expect", "project", "predict","potential", "targeting", "intends", "believe", "potential", and similar expressions, or describes a "goal", or variation of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may","should", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved. Forward-looking information is not a guarantee of future performance and is based upon a number of estimates andassumptions of management at the date the statements are made including, among others, assumptions about future prices of gold, and other metal prices, currency exchange rates and interestrates, favourable operating conditions, political stability, obtaining governmental approvals and financing on time, obtaining renewals for existing licenses and permits and obtaining requiredlicenses and permits, labour stability, stability in market conditions, availability of equipment, accuracy of any mineral resources, the availability of drill rigs, the accuracy of a preliminary economicassessment, successful resolution of disputes and anticipated costs and expenditures. Many assumptions are based on factors and events that are not within the control of Otis Gold and there is noassurance they will prove to be correct.Such forward-looking information, involves known and unknown risks, which may cause the actual results to be materially different from any future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking information, including, risks related to the interpretation of results and/or the reliance on technical information provided by third parties as related to the Company’s mineral propertyinterests; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; current economic conditions; future prices of commodities; possible variations in grade or recovery rates; the costs andtiming of the development of new deposits; failure of equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; the failure of contracted parties to perform; the timing and success of exploration activitiesgenerally; delays in permitting; possible claims against the Company; labour disputes and other risks of the mining industry; delays in obtaining governmental approvals, financing or in thecompletion of exploration.The mineral resource estimates referenced in this press release use the terms "Indicated Mineral Resources" and "Inferred Mineral Resources." While these terms are defined in and required byCanadian regulations (under NI 43-101), these terms are not recognized by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). "Inferred Mineral Resources" have a great amount of uncertainty asto their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. The SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute SEC Industry Guide 7compliant "reserves" as in-place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of mineral deposits in these categories willever be converted into reserves. Otis Gold is not an SEC registered company.Although Otis Gold has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking information, there maybe other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such information will prove to be accurate as actual results andfuture events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Otis Gold disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking information, whether as aresult of new information, future events or otherwise unless required by law.

KILGORE - HISTORY AND OVERVIEW

▪ Kilgore is approx. 12,000 acres (located on US Forest Service land) 100% owned byOtis and royalty-free.

▪ Kilgore produced historically (circa 1930 - 1935) as a small-scale undergroundmining operation. No production records exist but significant evidence of miningoperations in the form of remnants of a tram line, ore-sorting facility andnumerous collapsed adits.

▪ In the 1990’s, Echo Bay Mines planned to develop Kilgore as an open pit operationwith forecast production of approx. 45,000 ounces/year. Due to a drop in goldprices to sub $300/ounce, they abandoned the project.

▪ Historic project wide drilling totaling approximately 306,500 feet (93,400 m) in 381holes.

OPPORTUNITIES TO ENHANCE KILGORE DEPOSIT

▪ Approved 5-year Plan of Operation will allow step-outdrilling in areas open to mineralization that areimmediately adjacent to the Kilgore Deposit,including:▪ Hole 16 OKR 338 which intercepted 70.1m of

2.74 g/t Au and is wide open to northwest ofDeposit.

▪ Hole 17 OKC 373 which intercepted 24.4m of4.33 g/t Au and is open to southeast of Deposit.

▪ Approximately 20 holes drilled in past two yearsidentified higher grade mineralization in “sill” andsedimentary units underlying Kilgore Deposit;additional drilling stepping off these holes creates theopportunity for increased size and grade.

▪ Fall 2019 drill program completed which consisted of3,250 m, in 11 holes. Focused on stepping out offexisting deposit.

▪ Most of the property remains incompletely tested orundrilled, including approximately 5 km of strike alongthe Volcanic Terrace.

▪ 2020 drill program will comprise up to 25,000 metresbetween Prospect Ridge and Gold Ridge.

The “toe” of the Volcanic Terrace, where the overlying volcanic rocks are in contact with country rocks, represents an area of interest over 5 kms long, within which approximately 1 km hosts the Kilgore Deposit.

OAKLEY –OVERVIEW

▪ Three primary gold/silver targets: Blue Hill Creek, Matrix Creek and Cold Creek.

▪ Approximately 5,100 acres in surface area (increased by 640 acres in 2018) and 100% owned by Otis.

▪ Located 60 kms west of the Black Pine Project (TSX: LGD) with very similar target geology.

▪ NI 43-101 Inferred resource of 163,000 ounces Au at a grade of 0.51 g/t at Blue Hill Creek. This bulk-tonnage resource is contained within a low-sulphidation epithermal deposit hosted in Tertiary volcanic rocks with similarities in geologic setting and timing to Carlin Trend Gold Deposits. A 5-hole test program in 2014 at Blue Hill Creek, intersected 123m of 0.691 g/t Au (near surface) in one of the holes.

▪ District-scale potential, only limited drill testing. Geologic modeling has identified drill targets along a 9km strike length.

▪ Grab samples from breccias collected in 2017 at Matrix Creek contain up to 306 g/t Ag and 1.34 g/t Au, with 14 samples averaging 70.4 g/t Ag and 0.55 g/t Au.

▪ 2018 highlights of fieldwork at Cold Creek included collection of 651 soil samples and 231 rock-chip samples. Results returned up to 1.9 g/t Au and 8.4 g/t Ag within altered and oxidized ash and a tuffaceous matrix of Tertiary Salt Lake formation conglomerate (Tcg). Results show that Tcg is a principal host for mineralization at Cold Creek.
