Jimmy, I’m well aware of how NDAs work — I’ve signed one with my current employer. What I’m saying is that the Board wanted his money first, and only then have him sign the NDA — effectively a gagging order.

I have no doubt that if the NO vote prevails, he’ll be in a much stronger position to sign an NDA on his own terms.

Are you in the YES vote camp?

Apologies, Roger — even I can't be perfect all the time… unlike you! 😄

@JimmyCalderwood — I suggest taking a moment to read the full post and consider the context before responding. The point being made is that the Board wanted DN to sign an NDA — effectively a gagging order — so he would be forced to toe the Board’s line.

With a 3-to-1 voting imbalance, he could have been outvoted — or even pushed out — at any time. Additionally, it appears the Board wanted his funding on their own terms.

If the NO vote wins, it opens up a much bigger window of opportunity for shareholders — including the chance to negotiate better terms and restore direction. DN is not the kind of person to be silenced easily. Like the rest of us, he wants GDR to succeed.

Let’s be clear about why the Board may have wanted DN to sign an NDA. In my opinion, it's because they are concerned about what he might uncover if he were to take a seat on the Board.

Should the NO vote win, the current Board will need to come to terms with the fact that a significant amount of unpublished or withheld information could come to light. That could carry serious implications for those involved.

Good morning all — at this stage, I would hesitate to put any price on the share price (SP). Let’s wait and see what the outcome of the General Meeting (GM) on Wednesday brings. The vote could be extremely close and could go either way.

If the NO vote wins, the next step will be to see how the Board responds — whether they take meaningful action or return with an alternative proposal. With the largest shareholder involved, we may also see a shift in direction, including the potential pursuit of alternative funding options.

The coming weeks may bring some uncertainty, and the share price will likely reflect that.

I have busy day today, so last post of the day. I hope no Turkey's (Shareholders) here votes (Yes) for Xmas.

Let’s avoid personal attacks on the Board of Directors — it’s neither respectful nor productive. Gino may be one of the most sincere individuals you could hope to find, but unfortunately, sincerity alone does not make an effective CEO. The financial management of GDR under his leadership has been, in my view, severely lacking.

The next three days will be incredibly important — and for many of us, the wait will feel longer than ever. Regardless of the vote’s outcome, it’s vital that we all get behind the result and work together for the future of the company. But that future needs to be led by professionals who are capable of delivering real results.

If you haven’t yet voted, there is still time — and I encourage you to vote NO. This is your company. Your vote matters and will help shape the direction we take from here. It may be your only opportunity to truly have your voice heard. Let’s not settle for more broken promises and delays — we’ve already waited five years. Enough is enough.

As for DN, I don’t believe he has invested millions into GDR without a clear vision for its future. He’s a significant shareholder and appears fully committed to helping GDR reach its full potential. That gives me confidence.

✅ What is Forward Selling?

Forward selling refers to the practice of selling shares you don’t yet own, typically based on an expectation or agreement that you will acquire them later — often at a lower price.

This can happen in a few contexts:

Placings or fundraises: Investors might sell shares into the market before officially receiving them in a placing.

Short selling: In more general terms, forward selling can resemble short selling — selling shares now and buying them back later.

📍 On AIM — Can it happen?

Yes, it can happen, but under certain conditions:

✅ Common in placings (private fundraises)

An investor may agree to subscribe to shares in a placing at, say, 2.5p — but starts selling shares into the market in advance, maybe at 3p, locking in a profit.

This is technically legal if:

They have binding allocation in the placing.

They disclose positions properly, if thresholds are crossed.

Hamilton1899, with all due respect, you've only started commenting on GDR since October 9th. It raises the question — are you perhaps aligned with the Board or part of their circle?

Also, don’t underestimate the investors here — some may have far deeper pockets than your group assumes.

Let’s all keep our feet firmly on the ground — no one should claim victory just yet. We’ll need to wait patiently for the official outcome on Wednesday.

If the NO votes have prevailed, what a day that would be — I’d be proud to be there to witness it.

B66 wait and C

Today we had over 62mil shares treaded and no 2nd RNS?

Pensioninvestor Well done, lets send clear msg to board

Stephen11 it all depends what Robert English does. We haven't heard from him at all. Hello Robert lets hear from you...

Both of you need to polish your CV's, there may be posts for Chairman and CFO at GDR!!!

Could there b another RNS on it's way??? One would have thought so, already nearly 200 trades done. Watch this space!!!

Hi Young K, you msg me on GDR board yesterday...we may be looking for Chairman/CFO and only god knows what else. Real good times coming over at GDR. Admin sorry for little cross dressing.

Too late to vote, voting closed yesterday i believe? Did on HL anyway. With some brokers, you have until 12:00 today

To Money, Roger, and all those who voted NO — let’s not count our chickens before they hatch. That said, I strongly believe we’re on the right track and that we will get there.

Message for those who are still undecided.

To those managing pensions or unsure how to vote: Please consider voting a firm “NO.” Your investment deserves to be in safe, capable hands.

The current Board has been given ample opportunity to deliver results — now is the time to pass the baton to someone with the capability and drive to move things forward. Every NO vote matters. Let’s take this opportunity to demand real change.
