Gold Loan Interest Waiver Extension
GoldStone Resources Limited (AIM: GRL), the AIM-quoted gold producer and exploration company focused on Ghana, announces that, further to the Company's announcement of 29 June 2026 regarding the extension of the terms of its standstill agreement originally entered into on 29 December 2023 (the “Standstill Agreement”) with Asian Investment Management Services Ltd ("AIMS") in relation to the Company's existing gold loan agreement entered into on 19 June 2020 (the "Gold Loan"), it has agreed a further amendment to the Gold Loan and the Standstill Agreement with AIMS.
Under the revised terms agreed between the Company and AIMS, no interest shall accrue or be payable on the outstanding amount under the Gold Loan for the period from and including 1 January 2026 to and including 31 December 2026. This extends the interest freeze announced on 29 June 2026, which was due to end on 30 September 2026, to 31 December 2026. In addition, AIMS has irrevocably waived any right or entitlement it may have to receive interest in respect of that period.

Emma Priestley, Chief Executive Officer, commented: “We are grateful for the continued support of AIMS and their ongoing constructive engagement with GoldStone. The further extension of the interest-free period provides additional financial flexibility as we continue to invest in the development of the Homase Mine and advance our plans for the next phase of the Company's growth”
