The shareholder vote removes the key internal condition to closing; the remaining binary catalyst is regulatory approval in Colombia and Ecuador. Monitor for any delays or conditions imposed by those regulators, as well as the Board's subsequent announcement on the size and structure of the planned share repurchase.

Executive Summary
Gran Tierra Energy stockholders voted overwhelmingly (99.8% of votes cast) to approve the sale of the company's Colombian and Ecuadorian businesses to Maurel & Prom for total consideration of approximately US$1.33 billion, including debt assumption. The company expects to receive net cash proceeds of approximately US$315 million ($250M at closing, $65M after 364 days) and targets closing by December 31, 2026, subject to remaining regulatory approvals in Colombia and Ecuador. Post-closing, Gran Tierra expects to be debt-free with operations focused on Canada and Azerbaijan, and plans to return capital to stockholders via a share repurchase.

Financial Impact
Total consideration of ~US$1.33B; net cash proceeds of ~US$315M; company expects to become debt-free post-closing.
Risk Factors
- Regulatory approvals in Colombia and Ecuador may be delayed, conditioned, or denied, preventing or altering the closing.
- The share repurchase is conditional on completion of the Sale and its structure/size/terms remain undetermined.
- Net cash proceeds are subject to adjustment and may be lower than the ~US$315 million estimate.
- Post-sale, the company's operations will be concentrated in Canada and Azerbaijan, introducing new geopolitical and operational risks.
