OTTAWA, Jan. 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cornerstone Capital Resources Inc. (“Cornerstone”) (TSXV:CGP; OTC:CTNXF; FWB:GWN1) is pleased to announce that at a special shareholder meeting held today (the “Meeting”), holders of common shares of Cornerstone (“Cornerstone Shareholders”) voted overwhelmingly in favour of the special resolution (the “Arrangement Resolution”) approving the previously-announced plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) pursuant to which SolGold plc (LSE:SOLG; TSX:SOLG) (“SolGold”) will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Cornerstone (the “Cornerstone Shares”), other than the Cornerstone Shares already held, directly or indirectly, by SolGold.

The Arrangement Resolution was approved by 99.98% of the votes cast by Cornerstone Shareholders present at the virtual Meeting or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting (99.97% excluding the votes cast by Cornerstone Shareholders that were required to be excluded pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 — Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions).

Greg Chamandy, Chairman of Cornerstone, and Brooke Macdonald, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cornerstone, jointly stated:

We thank our shareholders for the near unanimous support of the merger with SolGold. We are very excited about the future prospects of SolGold under the strong leadership of Scott Caldwell. We look forward to being SolGold shareholders as the strategic review will now be the number one priority to ensure all shareholders are appropriately rewarded for supporting the extraordinary discovery at Cascabel.”

Cornerstone will seek a final order of the Court of King’s Bench of Alberta to approve the Arrangement at a hearing scheduled to be held on January 10, 2023. Subject to obtaining all required approvals and the satisfaction or waiver of all required conditions to closing, the Arrangement is expected to close in late January 2023.
