On May 17, 2024, Comstock Inc. ("Comstock") announced the private placement of 1,250,000 restricted shares at a price of $0.40 per share, or $500,000 in net proceeds, to the Executive Chairman & CEO of Comstock (the "Chairman").

The Chairman purchased such restricted shares with proceeds from an independent, personal promissory note issued by the Chairman to Alvin Fund LLC, who is separately a creditor and shareholder of Comstock. The promissory note has a principal amount of $1,100,000, accrues interest at 6% per annum for one year and 8% per annum thereafter and matures three years from the date of issuance. The obligations under the promissory note are secured by a security interest in Sierra Springs Opportunity Fund, Inc. ("SSOF") shares owned by the Chairman. The Chairman also assigned 500,000 shares of SSOF owned by him, as partial consideration for the extension of credit.
