Copies are also available on our website and have been disclosed to the SEC and the ASX. The proposals to be considered today are now displayed on the screen. Moving now to the proposals. Proposal 1, election of Ms. Laura Tyson as Director by the holder of the preferred stock Series A. Laura is nominated by the Energy & Minerals Group being the Series A Preferred Stockholder of record, Coronado Group LLC, which we will refer to as the EMG Group or Series A holder for election to the Board. The full background and details of Ms. Tyson are outlined in the proxy statement. The Series A holder has been asked to vote on the proposal shown on the screen. Ms. Laura Tyson, the director nominee of the company designated by the Energy & Minerals Group and named in the proxy statement be elected to serve as a Director of the company and to hold office until the 2027 Annual General Meeting of Stockholders of the company or until her successor has been duly elected and qualified. The Board of Directors unanimously recommended that the Series A holder vote in favor of the resolution in Proposal 1. The proxy vote of the Series A holder was received before the meeting, and the Series A holder has voted for the resolution in Proposal 1 as is now displayed on the screen. Moving now to Proposal 2, the election of 5 directors. The next proposal is the election of 5 directors including myself, Mr. Spindler, Ms. Allen, Mr. Christensen and Ms. Wilson to the Board of the company by the holders of common stock, including CDI holders. Coronado is incorporated in the state of Delaware in the U.S. and is bound by the requirements of the company's certificate of incorporation and bylaws, which require that all directors seek election at each Annual General Meeting. The specific experience, qualifications and skills considered by the Compensation and Nominating Committee and the Board of Directors in assessing the appropriateness of each director to be elected today are outlined in the proxy statement. Further, in assessing the independent qualifications of myself and each of Ms. Allen, Mr. Christensen and Ms. Wilson, the Board specifically considered the independent standards of the ASX and the New York Stock Exchange and the Board considers that each of these nominee directors continue to be independent. The ordinary resolution for stockholders to consider is now shown on the screen. That is that each of the 5 director nominees of the company named in the proxy statement and listed below, be elected to serve until the 2027 Annual General Meeting of Stockholders of the company or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. The directors are listed according to their position on the proxy card issued to stockholders. I will ask that those eligible to vote on this resolution, please do so now. The proxy votes received before the meeting on this resolution should now be displayed on your screen setting out the summary of proxies received for the resolution and any proxies withheld. On the basis of the proxies received, the results of the poll indicate that the resolution will be approved, and I look forward to working with all directors in the coming 12 months. Turning now to Proposal 3, approval on a nonbinding advisory basis of the compensation of our named executive officers or Say-on-Pay. As outlined in the proxy statement, pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Section 14A(a)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we are providing stockholders with the opportunity to cast a nonbinding advisory vote on the compensation of the company's named executive officers as disclosed in the proxy statement. The company seeks to provide compensation to each named executive officer that is designed to attract and retain suitably qualified executive officers to incentivize them to create sustainable performance aligned with the interest of shareholders. The vote on this proposal is not intended to address any specific element of the compensation but relates to the overall compensation of named executive officers as described in the proxy statement. Stockholders are being asked to consider and approve the advisory resolution shown on the screen, and I'll just read that. Resolved, that the compensation of the company's named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the compensation, discussion and analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion is hereby approved. The directors unanimously recommend that the stockholders eligible to vote on this proposal, vote for in favor of this proposal. I will ask that those eligible to vote on this resolution, please do so now. The proxy votes received before the meeting on this resolution should now be displayed on your screen. On the basis of the proxies received, the results of the poll indicates that the resolution will be approved. Moving now to Proposal 4, advisory vote to approve the frequency of stockholder votes on the named executive officer compensation. Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act and Section 14A(a)(2) of the Exchange Act, we are also providing our stockholders with the opportunity to cast a nonbinding advisory vote recommending whether the Say-on-Pay vote going forward occurs every year, every 2 years or every 3 years. This advisory vote, commonly known as Say-on-Frequency vote, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views about how frequently, but at least once every 3 years, we should conduct a pay-on -- Say-on-Pay vote. We are required to hold a Say-on-Frequency vote at least once every 6 years. And accordingly, the next Say-on-Frequency vote is expected to take place at our 2032 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. In relation to the Say-on-Frequency vote, directors have determined that the Say-on-Pay vote takes place every 3 years, as we believe this is the best approach for the company and its stockholders and CDI holders. And accordingly, the proposed resolution is set out on the screen. Just reading it now. Resolved, that stockholder votes to hold the nonbinding advisory vote on named executive officer compensation every 3 years. Stockholders have been able to cast their votes on Say-on-Frequency proposal for future Say-on-Pay votes to be held every year, every 2 years or every 3 years or to abstain from voting in response to this proposal. The proxy votes received before the meeting on this resolution should now be displayed on your screen. On the basis of the proxies received, the results of the poll indicate the resolution that our stockholders voted to hold a nonbinding advisory vote on named executive officer compensation every 3 years. Turning now to Proposal 5, the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young as the company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. As outlined in the proxy statement, the Audit, Governance and Risk Committee has appointed Ernst & Young to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. Although we are not required to seek stockholder ratification of this appointment, we intend to seek stockholder ratification of the appointment of our registered public accounting firm annually. Representatives of Ernst & Young are present virtually at today's meeting. Stockholders are being asked to ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young as the company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. I ask those eligible to vote to please do so now. The proxy votes received before this meeting on this resolution are now displayed on your screen. On the basis of the proxies received, the results of the poll indicate that the resolution will be approved. Turning now to Proposal 6, which is the approval of the issuance of up to 90 million securities under the company's 2018 equity incentive plan. Proposal 6 seeks approval from share -- stockholders to issue up to 90 million securities under the Coronado Global Resources, Inc. 2018 Equity Incentive Plan or the Plan for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13. A summary and a full copy of the terms of the Plan is attached to Appendix A in our proxy statement. The approval is intended to replenish securities available under the Plan, which is intended to assist the company to attract and retain key employees. The Plan provides for the grant of awards, including CDIs and stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, restricted shares and performance stock units exercisable for or convertible into CDIs. These relevant equity awards are referred to collectively as securities in this Proposal 6. At the company's 2023 Annual General Meeting, stockholders approved the issuance of up to 25 million securities under the Plan and such approval expired in late May 2026. The company may still issue securities under the Plan, but those issuances count towards the company's so-called 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. However, the company is seeking stockholder approval for issuance of securities under the plan and hence, again, seeking to rely on the exception to ASX listing rule 7.1, as set out under ASX Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13, which exception will last for a period of 3 years from the date of this meeting. The maximum number of securities to be issued under the plan over the next 3 years is 90 million. Note that this figure is denominated in CDIs. Even if this Proposal 6 is not passed, the company may still issue securities under the Plan. However, those issuances will count towards the company's 15% placement capacity under listing rule -- under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. Securityholders are being asked to consider and approve the ordinary resolution shown on the screen. And I'll just read that. To resolve to approve the issuance of up to 90 million securities, including CDIs and stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, restricted shares and performance stock units exercisable for or convertible into CDIs. Under the company's 2018 Equity Incentive Plan pursuant to ASX listing rule 7.2, Exception 13 and for all other purposes. The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that the holders of our common stock and CDI holders vote for this resolution. I ask those eligible to vote to please do so now. Any votes cast in favor of Proposal 6 by or on behalf of a person who is eligible to participate in the plan will be disregarded by the company. The proxy votes received before the meeting on this resolution are now displayed on your screen. On the basis of the proxies received, the results of the poll indicates that the resolution will be approved. That concludes the items of business for this Annual General Meeting. Thank you. We have now come to the end of our formal order of business. And in a couple of minutes, I will close the poll and voting system. Please ensure as eligible, you have cast your votes on all proposals. I have to confirm with the Secretary for this meeting and Computershare that there has not been any notice of revocation of any proxy submitted by our stockholders. I will now pause to allow you time to finalize your votes. [Voting]

I confirm that the polls are now closed and voting has closed. As a reminder, Computershare will tally the results of the poll and details of the voting results will be provided to the SEC and ASX after the meeting close. Ladies and gentlemen, that concludes the formalities of today's meeting. On behalf of the Board and management of Coronado, I would like to thank you for your attendance and participation in our virtual Annual General Meeting today. I, again, thank you for your continuing support of Coronado and reinforce our commitment to delivering long-term value for our stockholders. I now declare the Annual General Meeting of Stockholders of Coronado Global Resources Inc., closed.

This concludes the meeting. You may now disconnect.
