VANCOUVER, BC , April 22, 2026 /CNW/ - LunR Royalties Corp. ("LunR", or the "Company") (TSXV: LUNR) is pleased to announce that it has mailed and filed a notice of meeting, management information circular, and related meeting materials (collectively, the "Meeting Materials") for its annual general and special meeting of shareholders (the "Meeting"), to be held on May 21, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) at the Company's head office.

At the Meeting, shareholders of LunR ("Shareholders") will be asked to vote in favour of a resolution approving the Company's acquisition of a life-of-mine silver stream on the Fruta del Norte mine in exchange for the issuance of 50,505,051 common shares of LunR (the "Consideration") to Lundin Gold (the "FDN Transaction"). Lundin Gold has announced that it will distribute all of the Consideration as a dividend-in-kind to its shareholders as soon as practicable following closing of the FDN Transaction (the "Distribution"), and therefore it will not hold any common shares of LunR following completion of the Distribution, as detailed in LunR and Lundin Gold's press releases dated February 22, 2026 and April 2, 2026.

Shareholders should carefully review all Meeting Materials as they contain important information concerning the FDN Transaction and the other customary annual matters to be considered at the Meeting.

LunR's four current directors have been nominated for re-election, and the Company has put forth two additional nominees: Tara Hassan and Armando Picciotto.

Ms. Hassan brings more than 20 years of mining industry and capital markets experience in corporate and operational leadership and equity research. She is currently Executive Vice President, Corporate Development of Silverco Mining and prior to that, she served as Senior Vice President, Corporate Development for SilverCrest Metals. She is currently a board member of two TSX-listed precious metals companies and was formerly on the board of Maverix Metals until its acquisition by Triple Flag Precious Metals in January 2023.
