Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, dated as of September 13, 2021 (the “Arrangement Agreement”), by and among Corvus Gold Inc., a corporation existing under the laws of British Columbia (the “Company”), 1323606 B.C. Unlimited Liability Company, an unlimited liability company existing under the laws of British Columbia (the “Purchaser”) and AngloGold Ashanti Holdings plc, a public limited company existing under the laws of the Isle of Man (the “Guarantor”), at 12:01 a.m. (Vancouver Time) on January 18, 2022, the Company consummated the statutory plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “Arrangement”), pursuant to which the Purchaser among other things, acquired the remaining 80.5% of the outstanding common shares of the Company (the “Corvus Shares”) not already owned by AngloGold Ashanti Limited (“AGA”) and its affiliates (collectively, the “AGA Group”). The Purchaser is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of AGA and the Guarantor is a direct wholly owned subsidiary of AGA.

At the effective time of the Arrangement (the “Effective Time”), the Purchaser acquired all of the Corvus Shares not already owned by the AGA Group for C$4.10 per Corvus Share (the “Consideration”). Subsequently, the Purchaser and the Company were amalgamated to form one corporate entity (Corvus Gold ULC), with the legal existence of the Purchaser surviving the amalgamation and the Corvus Shares were canceled pursuant to the Arrangement. AngloGold Ashanti (U.S.A.) Holdings Inc., which is the direct parent company of the Purchaser, received one common share in the authorized share structure of Corvus Gold ULC for each common share previously held by AngloGold Ashanti (U.S.A.) Holdings Inc. in the Purchaser. Corvus Gold ULC is now an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of AGA.

As part of the Arrangement, each option to purchase a Corvus Share (a “Corvus Option”) that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Arrangement, notwithstanding the terms of such Corvus Option (whether vested or unvested) was, at the Effective Time, immediately canceled in exchange for a cash payment from the Company equal to the amount by which the Consideration exceeds the exercise price of each such Corvus Option.

The total amount of funds used to complete the Arrangement and related transactions and pay related fees and expenses was approximately $368,000,000, which was funded through the working capital of the Purchaser and its affiliates.

Immediately prior to the Effective Time, the AGA Group owned 24,774,949 Corvus Shares, representing 19.5% of the issued and outstanding Corvus Shares, based on 127,003,470 Corvus Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

The description of the Arrangement Agreement set forth above does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Arrangement Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 2.1 of the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 17, 2021.

Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing

As previously announced by the Company in its Current Report on Form 8-K as filed with the SEC on January 13, 2022, on January 7, 2022, the Company notified the Nasdaq Capital Market (“NASDAQ”) of its intention to voluntarily delist all of its securities from NASDAQ. In connection with the closing of the Arrangement, in coordination with NASDAQ, a Form 25 relating to the delisting of its shares was filed with the SEC on January 18, 2022.

Corvus Gold ULC expects the delisting of its shares to become effective 10 days following the filing, or January 28, 2022. The anticipated effective date may be delayed if the SEC postpones the effectiveness of the application to delist for other reasons. Concurrent with the delisting from NASDAQ, Corvus Gold ULC intends to file a Form 15 with the SEC to terminate the registration of its shares under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and to suspend its reporting obligations with the SEC. Corvus Gold ULC expects that its obligation to file reports with the SEC will be suspended immediately upon the filing of the Form 15. Corvus Gold ULC reserves the right to delay the filing of the Form 15 or withdraw the form for any reason prior to its effectiveness.

Item 3.03 Material Modifications to Rights of Security Holders.

As set forth under Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, at the Effective Time, each Corvus Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than certain excluded shares held by the AGA Group, was acquired by the Purchaser in exchange for the Consideration, and each Corvus Share was subsequently canceled. At the Effective Time, all holders of the Corvus Shares (other than such excluded shares held by the AGA Group) ceased to have any rights with respect thereto other than the right to receive the Consideration.

Each Corvus Option that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Arrangement, notwithstanding the terms of such Corvus Option (whether vested or unvested) was, at the Effective Time, immediately canceled in exchange for a cash payment from the Company equal to the amount by which the Consideration exceeds the exercise price of each such Corvus Option.

The information set forth under Items 2.01, 3.01, 5.01, 5.03 and 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.03.

Item 5.01 Changes in Control of Registrant.

As a result of the Arrangement, a change in control of the Company occurred, and Corvus Gold ULC is now an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of AGA.
