Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the special meeting of shareholders. It's now 8:00 A.M. Eastern Time in Canada, and 9:00 P.M. Australian Western Standard Time. I've asked that the meeting be called to order. My name is Jim Askew. I'm the Chairman of the Board of Robex Resources. In accordance with the bylaws adopted by the company, I've been appointed by the Board of Directors to preside over today's meeting. I'm also joined by my fellow directors at this meeting and quite a number of the Robex senior management. As you know, the company has decided to hold the meeting virtually. We are committed to ensuring that shareholder meetings whether held virtually, in person, or in hybrid format encourage shareholder participation and engagement.
We believe that the use of technology to communicate with shareholders will facilitate the presentation of investors and make the meeting more accessible and attractive to all those participating. In addition, conducting the meeting virtually will provide an equal opportunity for all shareholders and newly appointed proxy holders to attend and participate in real time and vote at the meeting online via a web-based platform regardless of geographic location and potential barriers to participation. Guests are also welcome to attend and listen to the meeting but will not be able to ask questions or vote.
After opening appointments, we will move on to the agenda items, including to consider and present the special resolution to approve the statutory plan of arrangement between the company and Predictive Discovery Limited and 9548-5991 Quebec Inc., as described in the notices circulated to the shareholders on November 11th, 2025, and subsequently on December 12th, 2025. As previously mentioned, I'm appointed by the Board of Directors to chair the meeting. I hereby appoint Matthew Foy to act as the secretary of the meeting. Thank you. I also appoint Patrick Gauthier of Computershare Investor Services Inc. and the company's transfer agent to act as scrutineer to the meeting. Thank you.
The notice of this meeting, the notice of postponement of this meeting, and the management information circular, as amended and restated, the addendum to the management information circular, the form of proxy, the letter of transmittal, and all other documents required for the meeting were made available under the company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedarplus.ca and on the key documents database on our website at robexgold.com, investors/shareholders, and mailed to shareholders of the company as required, as evidenced by statements of mailing provided to us by the company's transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services. The statements of transmittal are available to any shareholder who wishes to consult them. I ask the meeting secretary to attach a copy of the statements to the minutes of today's meeting.
A quorum of the transaction for business at the meeting is one or more shareholders, holders of shareholders carrying not less than 5% of the total number of votes attached to all shares entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy. The scrutineer informed me that there were today 50 shareholders represented by proxy, representing 202,437,829 shares, or 73.55% of Robex's issued and outstanding shares. Accordingly, the quorum is noticed having been properly given and a quorum being present, I now declare the meeting to be regularly called and properly constituted for the transaction of business. Just running over the participation procedures, if you have a question or comment, please select the email icon at the top of your screen, type your question or comment into the text box at the bottom of the email screen, then click send.
Please read the instructions in the text box before sending your question or comment. We'll also ask that you submit your questions or comments as soon as possible at the meeting so that we have time to receive them. We will limit questions and comments to matters that are directly relevant to the special resolution being considered at today's meeting. Questions of a similar nature or repetitive nature may be grouped and answered in a single manner at the appropriate time during the meeting. The company reserves the right to modify or reject questions that it deems inappropriate or to limit the number of questions per shareholder or duly appointed proxy holder in order to ensure that as many people as possible have the opportunity to ask questions.
For example, the company does not intend to discuss at this meeting matters that are either irrelevant to the business of the company or the subjects of the meeting related to material non-public information or of a personal nature, including any matters related to personal claims, derogatory references to individuals or for taste, hostile or disruptive to the orderly conduct of the meeting, out of order or inappropriate to the conduct of the meeting, all in my reasonable judgment as Chairman of the meeting. A representative of Robex will contact you after the meeting if your question is of a personal nature. If we're unable to answer your question or comment during the meeting, a member of management will contact you after the meeting. I will give you the opportunity to ask questions after each resolution has been called and before we vote.
Each shareholder or proxy holder is entitled to one vote on each resolution or to instruct an agent to do one vote on each resolution. Questions or comments will be limited to two minutes per speaker at my discretion. Moving to voting procedure, in order to facilitate the conduct of this meeting, steps have been taken to have certain shareholders and proxy holders propose and support the resolutions to be considered. This is not to impede the discussion in any way. The items of business require that the arrangement resolution be passed by at least two-thirds of the votes cast. Registered shareholders and proxy holders can vote through the online platform. Registered shareholders and proxy holders who have already voted by proxy do not need to vote again unless they wish to change their vote.
As mentioned in the press release issued by Robex on November 13, 2025, the management information circular in form of proxy previously distributed to the registered shareholders confers discretionary authority on management or any other person designated as proxy in this document to vote on any amendments or matters before the meeting. Management intends to rely on the discretionary authority conferred by the management information circular and the form of proxy to vote in favor of the arrangement resolution proposed at this meeting. Voting online will open shortly during the formal portion of the meeting. We will ensure that there is sufficient time for online votes, and you will be able to vote until I declare the vote closed. When the online vote is open, a poll icon will appear in the navigation bar at the top of your screen.
Text of the resolution on which you are invited to vote and the voting choices will then appear. After voting, you will see a message confirming your seat or your vote. You can change your vote by simply clicking on the other available option. If you wish to revoke your vote, click cancel. Moving to the approval of the arrangement resolution, the item of business on which shareholders are asked to vote on is the arrangement resolution. If there are no questions, I will now ask someone to propose the arrangement resolution as set out in Appendix B, the management information circular, to approve by special resolution the statutory plan of arrangement between the company, Predictive Discovery Limited, and 9548-5991 Quebec Inc.
Mr. Chairman, my name is Matthew Foy and I'm the shareholder of the company. I propose that the arrangement resolution set out in Appendix B, the management information circular, be approved.
Do we have a seconder, please?
Mr. Chairman, my name is Alain William and I'm a shareholder of the company. I second the motion.
Thank you. Any questions, please? Floor is open.
There are no questions online through the portal that I can see.
Thank you. If there are no questions, we will proceed to vote on this matter. Shareholders and proxy holders who have not voted are voting on the resolution online via the voting portal and are encouraged to do so now. We'll take a brief break in the meeting for that to occur. Ladies and gentlemen, we will now resume the meeting. I've been advised that results of the vote have been tabulated by the scrutineer. I'll read out the results. Patrick, do we have a number for the votes cast at the meeting by shareholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote? Meeting in her favor, have voted in favor of the arrangement resolution, please. Hello?
Yes, I'm here. This is through the meeting door. The results are in. The proposition is passing by just a moment. I apologize for that. It's passing at 94.54%.
The voting? Yep. Pretty good.
Yeah. 94.54%.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
I declare that the arrangement resolution set out in Appendix B of the management information circular has duly been carried by the requisite threshold at the meeting by shareholders. Formal business of the shareholders' meeting is now closed. I therefore ask someone to move a motion to conclude the meeting.
I move that the meeting be concluded.
Second it, please.
I second the motion.
Thank you. Any questions? I declare the resolution adopted and the meeting concluded. Congratulations, everybody. Thank you.
