 GOLDEN, Colo., May 13, 2021 GLOBE NEWSWIRE -- Golden Minerals Company NYSE American and TSX: AUMN Golden Minerals, Golden or the Company announced today that it intends to call to order and then immediately adjourn its virtual annual meeting of stockholders commencing Thursday May 13, 2021, at 1:00 p.m. Mountain Time. The adjournment of the virtual annual meeting of stockholders will be until 1:00 p.m. Mountain Time on June 10, 2021. No changes have been, or are expected to be, made to the record date or the proposals to be brought before the Annual Meeting, which are presented in the previously distributed proxy statement. The Company has decided to adjourn the virtual annual meeting in order to provide additional time to solicit proxies with respect to proposals presented to the stockholders for approval, specifically, the proposal to amend the Companys certificate of incorporation to increase the Companys authorized common stock from 200,000,000 to 350,000,000 shares Charter Amendment. Although nearly 90 of the shares represented by proxies received to date have approved the Charter Amendment proposal, the number of votes in favor of the proposal has not yet reached a majority of the Companys outstanding common stock, which is required for passage. The Companys board recommends a vote in favor of the Charter Amendment for the reasons described in the proxy statement, including the need to have sufficient authorized common stock in order to permit the future issuance of common stock to support the growth and expansion of the Companys business, including future acquisition of mining properties or other companies engaged in the mining business.
