Notes 

  1. Any proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman have been included in the “votes” for total
  2. A “vote” withheld is not a valid vote in Irish law and was not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes “For” or “Against”
  3. The percentage of issued share capital voted calculation uses the Company’s total voting rights figure of 39,262,880 ordinary shares as detailed in the Company’s announcement of 1 April 2021

The Company can confirm that having received the approval of shareholders at the EGM held today, the directors are now empowered to sign the Agreement and will proceed to do so on finalisation of any remaining ancillary documentation.

Completion of the joint venture between Conroy Gold and Demir Export remains subject to the satisfaction of certain outstanding conditions, details of which were set out in the circular published by the Company on 6 December 2021, although good progress is being made on the necessary regulatory consents in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.

A further announcement will be made by the Company on formal signing of the Agreement and again once the outstanding conditions for completion of the Joint Venture have been fulfilled and the Joint Venture has become unconditional. Whilst the Board is confident that the outstanding conditions will be satisfied there can be no guarantee that this will occur and that the Agreement will become unconditional.

Unless otherwise defined, all capitalised terms used but not defined in this announcement relating to the EGM shall have the meaning given to them in the Circular dated 6 December 2021, a copy of which is available to view on the Company’s website (www.conroygold.com)
