Name Change to Osisko Mining Inc.

At the Meeting, shareholders of the Corporation representing approximately 98.99% of the votes cast on the matter overwhelmingly approved the special resolution to change the name of the Corporation from "Oban Mining Corp." to "Osisko Mining Inc.". The Corporation will adopt the name "Osisko Mining Inc." and formalize its re-branding initiatives in the near future, which reflects the evolution of the Corporation since the beginning of 2015, including its assets and management, and following its consolidation activities in Ontario and Québec. The original Osisko Mining Corp. earned international recognition with the successes of its exploration and development team - a team that includes the original founders of Osisko who are now senior management and on the board of directors of the Corporation (the "Board") - crowned by the discovery, development and operation of the Canadian Malartic mine in the Abitibi region of north-western Québec, until the joint acquisition of Osisko Mining Corp. in June 2014 by Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. and Yamana Gold Inc. The Corporation wishes to reintroduce the Osisko Mining name to the mining and investment communities to better reflect the Corporation's current management, Board and technical teams that were responsible for much of the success of the original Osisko Mining Corp., and the highly prospective mineral project portfolio in Québec and Ontario that management believes will allow the Corporation to continue the fulfilment both of the Corporation's potential and its commitments to all of its stakeholders. The Corporation enjoys strong sponsorship from its largest shareholder Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd., who together with management and insiders of the Corporation currently owns approximately 19.9% of the shares of the company.

The Corporation has notified the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") of the proposed name change. Subject to TSX approval, it is expected that the Common Shares will commence trading on the TSX under the new name and under the new stock symbol "OSK" at the opening of business two or three days subsequent to the effecting of the name change by the Corporation, subject to the receipt by the TSX of the necessary documentation.
