| Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
As previously disclosed on December 22, 2025, Perpetua Resources Idaho, Inc. (“PRII”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Perpetua Resources Corp. (the “Company”), entered into an engineering, procurement, and construction management services agreement (the “Agreement”) with Hatch Ltd. (“Hatch”) for certain design, engineering, procurement, construction management, testing, studies, and related services for the Company’s Stibnite Gold Project (the “Project”). As previously disclosed on February 28, 2026, PRII and Hatch entered into an amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Agreement to, among other things, add the design and installation of the pressure-oxidation and oxygen system (the “POX/O2 System”) to Hatch’s scope of services under the Agreement and finalize the process guarantee. Unless defined herein, capitalized terms have the same meanings as in the Agreement, as amended.
Subsequent to the First Amendment, PRII selected Hatch as the direct supplier of certain required equipment for the Project, including autoclaves, flash vessels and vent gas cyclones (collectively, the “Proprietary Equipment”). On April 16, 2026, PRII and Hatch entered into a second amendment to the Agreement (the “Second Amendment”), to establish supplementary terms and conditions applicable solely to the design, engineering and supply of the Proprietary Equipment. Under the Second Amendment, Hatch will supply the Proprietary Equipment, for a fixed aggregate purchase price of $32.1 million (the “Purchase Price”), which is subject to adjustment by change order under limited circumstances, including changes in specifications or delivery, force majeure events, changes in applicable law, or certain unanticipated delivery circumstances. The Purchase Price excludes on-site supervision, installation, erection, testing and commissioning services, which may be provided by Hatch under a change order to the Agreement, and any taxes, tariffs, levies or similar governmental or regulatory charges (other than payroll or income taxes), which are payable by PRII.
The Second Amendment also provides a separate warranty and limitation of liability regime for the Proprietary Equipment and establishes specific intellectual property rights and restrictions relating to the Proprietary Equipment, in each case, subject to the terms and exclusions set forth in the Agreement. The Second Amendment may be terminated by PRII for convenience upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice, subject to specified payment obligations, and by Hatch pursuant to the termination-for-cause rights under the Agreement, which would result in certain additional payment rights in favor of Hatch.
The foregoing description of the Second Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Second Amendment, a copy of which is filed (with certain portions redacted in accordance with Item 601(b)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

| (a) | free from Proprietary Equipment Defects at Delivery; and |
| (b) | supplied solely in English and in standard formats subject to the reasonable approval of both Parties. |
| 2.2. | In the event any of the Proprietary Equipment are found to be defective, Supplier’s sole obligation shall be, at its option and expense, to repair or replace all Defective Proprietary Equipment if, within the later of (a) [***] months from the date such Proprietary Equipment is installed at the Facility, or (b) [***] months from the Delivery Date for such Proprietary Equipment, either (i) Supplier becomes aware of the Proprietary Equipment Defect in its role as EPCM; or (ii) Owner gives notice of the relevant Proprietary Equipment Defect to Supplier.

| 9. | INSURANCE |
| 9.1. | The insurance provisions set out in Article 9 of the Agreement shall apply to the supply of Proprietary Equipment under this Amendment, mutatis mutandis. Without limiting the foregoing, references to the “Services” in Article 9 shall, to the extent applicable, be deemed to include the supply of the Proprietary Equipment. For clarity, nothing in this Amendment shall require the Supplier to obtain insurance coverage beyond that required under the Agreement. |
| 10. | LIMITATION OF LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION (PROPRIETARY EQUIPMENT ONLY) |
| 10.1. | Article 11.4 (Limitation of Liability) of the Agreement shall continue to apply in full to the Services (as defined in the Agreement).
