ASA Gold and Precious Metals Limited Announces Distribution Declaration and Results of Vote at Annual General Meeting

ASA Gold and Precious Metals Limited (the “Company”) (NYSE: ASA) declared a distribution of $0.01 per common share of the Company. The distribution is payable on May 19, 2022 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 9, 2022. Due to a continued low level of dividends received by the portfolio, this distribution will be paid from undistributed realized gains. The Company has paid uninterrupted distributions since 1959.

In addition, the Company announced that shareholders re-elected Anthony Artabane, William Donovan, Bruce Hansen and Mary Joan Hoene as directors of the Company at the annual general meeting of shareholders held on March 24, 2022.

Shareholders also voted to ratify and approve the appointment of Tait, Weller & Baker LLP to serve as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2022, and to authorize the Company’s Nominating, Audit and Ethics Committee to set the independent auditors’ remuneration.
