As the proposals involved amendments to the
Company's articles of incorporation, approval from a majority of
the outstanding shares of Silver Bull common stock was required. As
a majority in favour was not received for either proposal, neither
proposal was approved.
President and CEO, Tim Barry stated: “We would
like to thank those shareholders who took the time to vote on these
matters that are very important to the future growth and
advancement of the Company, however also express our great
disappointment that shareholders owning half of the Company’s
outstanding shares chose not to vote on what should be considered
routine and uncontroversial matters. As mentioned in previous news
releases, leading independent proxy advisor firms Institutional
Shareholder Services (ISS) and Glass Lewis & Co. had
recommended shareholders vote “FOR” both proposals.
So it is very clear to all shareholders,
management must now consider all available options for our next
step. We see great potential for the Company’s Sierra Mojada
Project as well as in Kazakhstan with the Beskauga Project, should
it pass due diligence, and we will seek to find alternative ways to
finance and move these projects forward.”
Full details of the proposals are fully
described in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed on
November 6, 2020 available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com, and on EDGAR
