Gold Reserve Announces US$7.382 Billion Citgo Bid Recommendation
PEMBROKE, Bermuda--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Gold Reserve Ltd. (TSX.V: GRZ) (OTCQX: GDRZF) announced today that its U.S. acquisition subsidiary, Dalinar Energy Corporation, is the Final Recommended Bidder for the purchase of shares of PDV Holding, Inc., the indirect parent company of CITGO Petroleum Corp. The selection of the U.S.-based Dalinar was made public today in the Notice of Final Recommendation filed by the Special Master appointed by the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, which is overseeing the sale process. This represents a significant milestone in Gold Reserve's nearly 15-year legal journey. A copy of the Special Master's Final Recommendation and supporting materials, including Dalinar's bid materials, can be found here. For further information regarding Dalinar, visit: 'We are thankful for all of the efforts of the Special Master and his advisors to reach today's final US$7.382 billion bid recommendation. We believe the recommendation acknowledges the strength of Dalinar's bid,' said Paul Rivett, Gold Reserve's Executive Vice Chairman. Mr. Rivett continued, 'Our bid satisfies creditors further down the waterfall than was ever contemplated by any prior bid since the inception of the Delaware sale process. Gold Reserve is thankful to our consortium partners, financial counterparties, and other stakeholders who steadfastly supported us through the years and made today's bid recommendation possible. Above all, we are very grateful to the team members that worked tirelessly to achieve this outcome, and to Gold Reserve's supportive shareholders who kept the faith and believed in us through tough times, some for many thankless decades. We look forward to the Court's decision in August and getting closer to finally closing this chapter in Gold Reserve's long history.' Dalinar's bid is supported by a consortium that includes judgment creditors Rusoro Mining Ltd., Koch Minerals Sarl and Koch Nitrogen International Sarl, and Siemens Energy, Inc. The bid's stated net purchase price is US$7.382 billion 1, significantly higher than the US$3.7 billion stalking horse bid submitted by Red Tree Investments earlier this year. At closing, Gold Reserve will own approximately 44% of Dalinar's common equity, representing 85% of the voting shares. 2 In addition, Gold Reserve will hold at least $150 million of $1.5 billion of preferred equity securities in Dalinar or one of its subsidiaries. Dalinar's US$7.382 billion bid benefits several parties by satisfying in full, in cash, or non-cash consideration, Gold Reserve's attached judgment, the attached judgments of all creditors senior to Gold Reserve in the court-approved priority waterfall, and the attached judgment of junior creditor Siemens Energy, Inc. The Dalinar bid includes a combination of equity and debt financing. A consortium of lenders, led by J.P. Morgan and TD Bank and including Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC), have provided commitments for the full amount of the anticipated debt financing. 'We would like to specifically acknowledge the overwhelming effort and belief in this bid demonstrated by Meghann Altman and Keith Canton at J.P. Morgan from the outset of our submissions last year, and more recently, John Prato at TD Bank, who worked to bolster our financing at a crucial time this year that allowed us to remain competitive', said Paul Rivett. 'All financial institutions are not equal and in the end it is the people in those institutions that provide for greatness at crucial times.' The Delaware Court is scheduled to hold a Sale Hearing on August 18, 2025. The specific terms of the Dalinar bid are governed by a stock purchase agreement between Dalinar and the Special Master that can be viewed here. Dalinar's purchase of the PDVH shares is subject to closing conditions and regulatory approvals, including but not limited to approval by the U.S. Department of Treasury' s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). Gold Reserve wishes to thank the teams at Citgo Petroleum for their strong support for the business and its stakeholders throughout this extenuated process. We look forward to working with these professionals at Citgo Petroleum in the months and years to come.

Best's Commentary: Latest Middle East Turmoil Generates Additional, Familiar Exposures for Insurers; Regional Economy May Feel the Broader Brunt
BUSINESS WIRE)--While the most recent period of military action in the Middle East presents a range of potential geopolitical risk exposure for the insurance industry, the direct impacts will largely be limited by war exclusions and narrowly defined policy triggers, according to a new AM Best report. The Best's Commentary, titled 'Latest Middle East Turmoil Generates Additional, Familiar Exposures for Insurers; Regional Economy May Feel the Broader Brunt,' notes that thus far, there has been no ratings impact for AM Best-rated insurers operating in the region. If tensions escalate, there is a potential impact for insurers who underwrite political risk, trade credit and war risk coverages in the Middle East region. 'Disputes over exclusions may arise from ambiguous policy language, particularly in relation to business interruption claims, where coverage and causality may be contested,' said Mahesh Mistry, senior director, AM Best. 'For example, port closures, logistical delays, and production halts could potentially trigger business interruption claims.' AM Best also notes in the report that a significant impact is evident in the aviation and marine insurance specialty markets. Premiums for ships operating in the Persian Gulf region, particularly through the Strait of Hormuz, have risen sharply to reflect the elevated risk. Aviation insurers have similarly raised rates for carriers flying near the conflict zones. Many countries in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region are heavily reliant upon the hydrocarbon sector to drive economic growth, according to the report. The GCC comprises Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. AM Best maintained its stable outlook on the GCC in April, but notes that this region could be adversely impacted by second-order effects. 'If events were to escalate and impact energy prices, it is likely to affect opportunities for insurers in the region,' said Ann Modica, director, AM Best. 'Any wider escalation into the GCC region could affect energy prices, and may have repercussions for inflation globally.'
