litigation

Nyrstar NV (the "Company") wishes to update its
shareholders on certain litigation proceedings of which it is the
subject.
As a reminder, on 3 January 2023, the Company
received a writ of summons from certain shareholders of the Company
(the “Claimants”) initiating summary proceedings relating to
interim measures. The President of the Antwerp Enterprise Court,
Antwerp division (the “President”) heard the case on 25 April
2023.
Today, the President issued his judgment in
these summary proceedings.
In this judgement, the President took note of
the Company’s announcement of 14 February 2023 that it will not
take steps to convene a general meeting with dissolution as an
agenda item (or take preparatory actions to that effect) until the
Supreme Court has rendered a judgment in the pending Supreme Court
appeal against the judgment of the Antwerp Court of Appeal dated 17
November 2022 with respect to the claim for the appointment of a
panel of experts, known under docket numbers 2020/RK/35, 2020/RK/38
and 2022/AR/177.
The President dismissed the Claimants’ request
to impose a prohibition on the Company to convene a shareholders'
meeting to decide on the dissolution of the Company.
Furthermore, the President also dismissed the
Claimants’ request to appoint a provisional administrator or a
trustee ad hoc. These claims were found to be inadmissible for a
number of Claimants, and ill-founded for the remainder of
Claimants.
Finally, each party was ordered to bear its own
costs in relation to these summary proceedings.
The Company is currently analysing this new
judgment together with its legal advisors.
A detailed overview of the current proceedings
