Good morning. It's now 10:00 a.m. My name is Rodrigo Barbosa, president and CEO of Aura Minerals, and I'll chair today's meeting. On behalf of the board of directors, I welcome you to the annual meeting of shareholders of Aura Minerals. We are pleased to host the meeting through this virtual meeting platform, accessible to all our shareholders regardless of physical location, to participate, submit questions, and vote.
As this meeting is being held online via live webcast, it is appropriate to set out a few rules for online participants for the orderly conduct of this meeting.
Please know that only registered shareholders or duly appointed proxy holders who have logged in with a valid 12-digit control number and the appropriate password can vote and ask questions at today's meeting.
If you have logged in as a guest with your email address, you will not be able to vote or ask questions. Registered shareholders and duly appointed proxy holders who have questions on a formal item of business may submit their questions by clicking the ask question button on the upper left side of your screen, typing out the questions and clicking submit.
Please note that there might be a slight delay on the publication of the communication received.
Please feel free to submit questions on the presented motions until close.
In the interest of time, we will read each of our resolutions and address questions once they have been read.
For the purpose of the meeting today, voting in all matters will be conducted by electronic ballot.
Voting will open upon commencement of the formal portion of the meeting and remain open for you to vote at any time until the polls are closed. You may choose to vote on each resolution immediately or wait until the conclusion of discussions on all resolutions prior to casting your votes.
When polls are announced open, please click on the voting button and submit your votes accordingly.
You will only have a certain amount of time to do so when the polls are open.
If you are a registered shareholder and have already voted by proxy prior to our proxy cut-off time and do not wish to change and revoke your previous vote, please do not vote again when the ballots appear on your screen. By voting again, you will be revoking your previous votes.
I would now like to call the meeting to order.
I will ask George Questo to enter as the secretary of the meeting, and unless there is any objection, I will appoint Ha Caralo of CSX Trust Company to act as scrutineer of the meeting.
In order to facilitate the procedural aspects of the meeting, we have asked certain shareholders to move and second the various motions that will arise. As noted previously, voting on all matters will be conducted by electronic ballot. Only registered shareholders who held shares in their name as of May 4th, 2026, the record date of this meeting, or the valid appointed proxy holder, are entitled to vote at this meeting.
I am advised that the requisite number of shareholders for a quorum is present and that we have the preliminary scrutineer's report, which indicates a majority of shareholders have voted in favor of each of the ordinary resolutions and more than two-thirds of shareholders have voted in favor of the special resolution. The final scrutineer's report will be annexed to the minutes of the meeting.
I confirm that the minutes of the meeting, together with the Form of Process Annual Report on Form 20-F and related financial statements of the company, including the auditor's report thereon, have been mailed or made available to shareholders of the company entitled to receive notice. A copy of these materials is also available on EDGAR.
Unless there are any objections, I propose we dispense with the reading of the notice of the meeting.
I now declare that the register of shareholders is present and this meeting has been properly called and is regularly constituted for the transaction of business.
To be effective, our resolutions require an affirmative vote of the majority of votes cast. We will conduct the votes on the matters before us by electronic ballot.
Every shareholder entitled to vote on the matter has one vote in respect of each share entitled to be voted on the matter and held by that shareholder.
The polls will open for all resolutions at the same time.
It will allow you to choose to vote on each resolution immediately or wait until the conclusion of discussion on all resolutions prior to casting your vote.
We will run through each of the formal matters of business and respond to questions related to these matters, if any, prior to closing the polls. I now declare the polls open for all resolutions.
Once discussion of all items of business has concluded, you will be given time to enter your votes and declare voting closed on all resolutions.
The results of the meeting will be publicly released and available on our website.
The first item of business is the election of directors. The following persons have been nominated by management for election as director: Paulo de Brrito, Stephen Keith, Bruno Mad, Pedro Tetto, Richmond, Paulo Deto.
As the directors have not received notice in accordance with the company's memorandum of association and articles of association of any other nominations, nominations are declared closed.
As on process receives, I can confirm that each of the directors individually received well over a majority of the votes cast for him.
To streamline the voting process, we will elect each individual director through one omnibus resolution.
The number of directors to be elected at the meeting is six.
I now move that each of the six individual nominees whose name has been read is and is hereby elected as a director of the company to hold office until the end of the next annual meeting or until his respective successor is duly appointed.
Will Clber Cardo please second the motion?
