Results of Special Meeting of Shareholders

 

On October 8, 2009, Gryphon Gold Corporation (the “Company”) held a special meeting of shareholders at Le Soliel Hotel, 567 Hornby Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 2E8. Shareholders representing 27,977,444 shares or 41.17% of the shares authorized to vote (67,960,905) were present in person or by proxy, representing a quorum for the purposes of the special meeting. Proxies were solicited under the proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 10, 2009. Proposals 1, 3 and 4 passed by votes of the shareholders present in person and in proxy. However, there were not a sufficient number of votes present at the special meeting to vote on Proposal 2, which requires the vote of 50% of the outstanding voting shares of the Company. Therefore, Proposal 2 was adjourned until November 20, 2009.

 

On November, 20, 2009, the continuation of the special meeting (the “Continuation”) was held at 200 Burrard Street, Suite 1200, Waterfront Centre, Vancouver British Columbia, Canada at 10:30 a.m. (Pacific Standard Time). At the Continuation, 35,421,522 shares or 52.1% of the shares authorized to vote (67,960,905) were present by proxy. Proxies were solicited under the proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 10, 2009. At the Continuation, the shareholders approved the following:

The Certificate of Amendment will amend Article 4, Section 4.1 of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, which currently reads:

 

“CAPITAL STOCK.
