Fox River Announces Amended Interim Order
Fox River Resources Nears $1.10 Cash Takeover by Avenir Minerals as Martison Phosphate Deal Clears Final Procedural Hurdles

Executive Summary
- Fox River Resources announced an amendment to the Ontario Superior Court's interim order governing its proposed plan of arrangement with Avenir Minerals Limited.
- The amendment expands dissent rights under the Canada Business Corporations Act to all registered shareholders at the time dissent rights are exercised, removing the prior restriction that limited them to shareholders registered as of the May 14, 2026 record date.
- A special meeting of securityholders is confirmed for June 23, 2026, to vote on the arrangement.
- Upon obtaining requisite shareholder approval, the Company intends to apply to the Court for a Final Order approving the Arrangement.
Material Impact
- The news is a procedural confirmation of the previously announced cash acquisition. It does not alter the transaction economics ($1.10 per share), the valuation (~$94.3 million fully diluted), or the expected closing timeline (early Q3 2026).
- Expanding dissent rights to all registered shareholders at the time of exercise is a standard corporate governance safeguard that reduces the risk of shareholder litigation or voting disputes, thereby increasing deal certainty.
- The stock is trading at $1.11, effectively at the offer price. The market has already priced in the ~20% premium and the high probability of closing. The incremental impact on valuation or share price is minimal.
