CALCULATION OF FILING FEE
| ||
| TRANSACTION VALUATION* | AMOUNT OF FILING FEE* | |
| US$355,702,039.82 | US$32,973.58 | |
|
In accordance with Exchange Act Rule 0-11(c), the filing fee of US$32,973.98 was determined by multiplying .0001091 by the aggregate Arrangement Consideration of US$355,702,039.82. The aggregate value of the transaction is C$443,987,286.10 converted into United States dollars. Canadian dollars were converted into United States dollars using the average daily exchange rate as reported by the Bank of Canada on October 8, 2021 of US$1.00=C$1.2482. The aggregate Arrangement Consideration was calculated as of October 11, 2021 based on the sum (a) 102,228,521 common shares issued and outstanding excluding shares held by AngloGold Ashanti Limited and all of its subsidiaries multiplied by C$4.10, (b) 12,005,000 common shares underlying outstanding vested and unvested options held by officers, directors, consultants, and employees of Corvus (the “cashed-out options”) multiplied by C$2.07 (which is the difference between C$4.10 cash payment per share less the applicable exercise price, and C$2.03, the weighted average per share exercise price of such options). |

TABLE OF CONTENTS
This Rule 13E-3 Transaction Statement, together with the exhibits hereto (this “Transaction Statement”), is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Section 13(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), by: (i) Corvus Gold Inc. (“Corvus” or the “Company”), a British Columbia, Canada corporation and the issuer of the common shares, no par value (the “Common Shares”), that are subject to the Rule 13e-3 transaction, (ii) AngloGold Ashanti Limited (“AGA”), a South African company, (iii) AGA (U.S.A.) Exploration Inc. (“AGA (U.S.A.) Exploration”), a Delaware corporation, (iv) 1323606 B.C. Unlimited Liability Company (the “Purchaser”), a British Columbia, Canada company, and (v) AngloGold Ashanti Holdings plc (the “Guarantor”), an Isle of Man company. Collectively, the persons filing this Transaction Statement are referred to as the “filing persons.” In this Transaction Statement, AGA, AGA (U.S.A.) Exploration, the Purchaser and the Guarantor are referred to collectively as the “AGA Group.” The Purchaser is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of AGA and the Guarantor is a direct wholly owned subsidiary of AGA. AGA (U.S.A.) Exploration is an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary of AGA and holds 19.5% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares.
This Transaction Statement relates to the Arrangement Agreement, dated September 13, 2021 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Arrangement Agreement,” and the transactions contemplated thereby, the “Arrangement”) among Corvus, the Purchaser, and the Guarantor. Pursuant to the Arrangement, the Purchaser will, among other things, acquire the remaining 80.5% of the outstanding Common Shares, not already owned by the AGA Group.
The special committee (the “Special Committee”) of the board of directors of Corvus (the “Corvus Board”) consisting solely of independent directors of Corvus, carefully reviewed, evaluated and supervised negotiations of the Arrangement Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement, including the Arrangement. The Special Committee evaluated the Arrangement and other alternatives available to Corvus, in consultation with the Corvus management and its own independent legal and financial advisors. After considering various factors, the Special Committee: (i) unanimously determined that the Arrangement Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Arrangement, are fair to the holders of Common Shares (the “Shareholders”) (other than the Guarantor or its affiliates), (ii) unanimously determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of the Company and (iii) unanimously recommended that the Corvus Board approve the Arrangement Agreement and that the Shareholders and holders of options to purchase Common Shares of Corvus (“Optionholders”, together with the Shareholders, the “Securityholders”) vote in favor of the special resolution approving the Arrangement at the special meeting (the “Arrangement Resolution”).
Having received the unanimous recommendation of the Special Committee, the Corvus Board evaluated the Arrangement, in consultation with the Company’s management and legal and financial advisors. After considering various factors, the Corvus Board: (i) unanimously determined that the Arrangement Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Arrangement, are fair to the Shareholders (other than the Guarantor or its affiliates), (ii) unanimously determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of the Company and (iii) unanimously recommended that the Securityholders vote in favor of the Arrangement Resolution. Based upon, and after considering, the same various factors, the Corvus Board has also unanimously determined that the Arrangement is fair to the Company's “unaffiliated security holders” as defined under Rule 13e-3 of the Exchange Act.
Concurrently with the filing of this Transaction Statement, Corvus is filing with the SEC a definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act, pursuant to which the Corvus Board is soliciting proxies from Securityholders in connection with the Arrangement. The Proxy Statement is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(1). A copy of the Arrangement Agreement is attached to the Proxy Statement as Appendix B and is incorporated herein by reference.
