Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - August 16, 2024) - Goldmoney Inc. (TSX: XAU) (US: XAUMF) ("Goldmoney" or the "Company"), wishes to remind shareholders about the upcoming annual general and special meeting ("AGSM") to be held virtually on September 16, 2024. The materials for the AGSM were filed on August 16, 2024 and may be found on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Among the special business to be addressed at the AGSM is Goldmoney's proposed continuance into the British Virgin Islands.
Shareholder votes must be received by 1:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on September 12, 2024. Your vote is important, regardless of the number of shares you own. Your shares can still be represented and voted by proxy at the AGSM, via mailing, the internet, or fax, following the instructions provided in the meeting materials, even if you cannot attend the meeting.
Proposed Continuance to the British Virgin Islands
Goldmoney presently exists under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "BCBCA"). Shareholders will be asked at the Meeting to consider and, if thought fit, to pass a special resolution to direct and authorize the continuation (the "Continuation") of the Company into the British Virgin Islands ("BVI"), whereafter the Company will be subject to the BVI Business Companies Act (As Revised).
Goldmoney's Board of Directors believes that the Continuance is in the best interest of the Company. At present, more than 90% of the corporation's share capital is owned by non-Canadian beneficial owners. Continuing into the BVI will permit the Company to more efficiently return capital to all shareholders by way of dividends and share buybacks. The continuance will also simplify long-term capital allocation and management within its subsidiaries. The Common Shares of the Company will continue to be listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") after the Continuation, and as such the Company's Common Shares will remain subject to the rules and policies of the TSX.
The Continuation will affect certain of the rights of the Company's shareholders as they currently exist under the BCBCA. Shareholders should consult their legal advisors regarding implications of the Continuation which may be of particular importance to them.
