Additionally, the Company announces the streamlining of its senior management team to better align itself to the current situation and plans of the Company.

Management Streamlining

Considering the need to preserve cash during the current reorganization proceedings in Uruguay, and the exploration focus in Colombia, Ms. Alejandra Lopez, the Company’s Uruguayan-based Chief Financial Officer, has agreed to step down from her CFO position effective November 30, 2018. Ms. Lopez will assist the Company in conducting an orderly transition and has agreed to remain available to the Company in the coming months on an as needed basis.

Ms. Lopez has been CFO since 2016 and a highly valued member of the Company’s management team. The Board wishes to thank Ms. Lopez for her considerable service and dedication to the Company in challenging times and wishes her the very best in her future endeavours.

Mr. Ryan Cohen, who has been the Company’s Vice President of Corporate Development since January 2014, will be acting as the Interim Chief Financial Officer until a suitable replacement has been found. The Company will, as soon as practicable, commence the search for a permanent CFO with expertise more aligned with capital markets and exploration and development activities.

Uruguay Reorganisation Update

The Company has been working diligently to reach a fair and balanced solution in Uruguay in the interests of all its stakeholders. As previously announced, as part of the Loryser reorganisation procedures, the Uruguayan Court has scheduled a meeting of creditors for December 17, 2018. In parallel with ongoing discussions with third parties, the Company has started negotiating a payment plan proposal agreement with creditors. The Company will require the support of more than 50% of creditors by value prior to the creditors’ meeting on December 17, 2018 in order to proceed with the agreed plan to avoid other options such as the liquidation of Loryser S.A.
