PROXY STATEMENT FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

December 12, 2024

ABOUT THE MEETING

This proxy statement for Paramount Gold Nevada Corp. (“Paramount” or the “Company”) is furnished in connection with the solicitation by our Board of Directors of proxies of stockholders for shares to be voted at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) to be held virtually via the Internet at https://meetnow.global/MM6HWWL with no meeting password required, at 11:00 a.m., eastern standard time, on Tuesday, December 12, 2024, and any and all adjournments or postponements thereof. Stockholders will require their control number to enter the meeting. This proxy statement and the accompanying proxy are first being made available to our stockholders on or about November 1, 2024.

Important Notice Regarding the Internet Availability of Proxy Material – Our Proxy Statement and Annual Report to Stockholders are available at www.edocumentview.com/PZG.

What is the date, time and place of the Annual Meeting?

Paramount’s 2024 Annual Stockholders Meeting will be held on Tuesday, December 12, 2024, beginning at 11:00 a.m., eastern standard time, virtually via the Internet at https://meetnow.global/MM6HWWL with no meeting password required. Stockholders will require their control number to enter the meeting.

Why is the Annual Meeting a virtual meeting?

We have determined that it is in the best interest of our stockholders, our Board, and our employees to conduct our Annual Meeting as a “virtual meeting” held online via live webcast. There will not be a physical meeting location. We believe that hosting a virtual meeting will facilitate stockholder attendance and participation at our Annual Meeting by enabling stockholders to safely participate remotely from any location around the world. We have designed the virtual Annual Meeting to provide the same rights and opportunities to participate as stockholders have at an in-person meeting, including the right to vote and ask questions through the virtual meeting platform.

What is the purpose of the Annual Meeting?

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will act upon the matters outlined in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders on the cover page of this proxy statement, consisting of: (1) the election of directors; (2) the ratification of the selection of Moss Adams LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.; and (3) any other matters that properly come before the Annual Meeting.

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

Only our stockholders of record at the close of business on October 17, 2024, the Record Date for the Annual Meeting, are entitled to receive notice of and to participate in the annual meeting. If you were a stockholder of record on that date, you will be entitled to vote all of the shares you held on that date at the meeting, or any postponement(s) or adjournment(s) of the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, there were 66,058,111 shares of common stock outstanding, all of which are entitled to be voted at the Annual Meeting.

A list of stockholders will be available at our headquarters at 665 Anderson Street, Winnemucca, Nevada, 89445, as of the mail date, November 1, 2024, through to the Annual Meeting and at the Annual Meeting itself for examination by any stockholder.

Why am I receiving these materials?

You are receiving these materials because, as of October 17, 2024, the Record Date for the Annual Meeting, you owned shares of Paramount common stock. Paramount has made these materials available to you on the Internet or has delivered printed versions of these materials to you by mail, in connection with the Company’s Board of Directors’ solicitation of proxies for use at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held on Tuesday, December 12, 2024, at 11:00 a.m. eastern standard time. These proxy materials give you information to determine how to vote in connection with the Annual Meeting.

What proposals will be voted on at the Annual Meeting?

Stockholders will vote on three proposals at the Annual Meeting:

What are the Board of Directors’ voting recommendations?

The Board recommends that you vote your shares:

Where is Paramount’s head office? And what is Paramount’s main telephone number?

Our head office is located at 665 Anderson Street, Winnemucca, Nevada, 89445. Our telephone number is (844) 488-2233.

Why did I receive a one-page notice in the mail regarding the Internet availability of proxy material instead of a full set of proxy materials?

Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC, the Company has elected to provide access to its proxy materials via the Internet. Accordingly, the Company is sending a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (“Notice”) to the Company’s stockholders. All stockholders will have the ability to access the proxy materials on the website referred to in the Notice or request a printed set of the proxy materials. Instructions on how to access the proxy materials over the Internet or to request a printed copy may be found in the Notice. In addition, stockholders may request to receive proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by email on an ongoing basis. The Company encourages stockholders to take advantage of the availability of the proxy materials on the Internet to expedite the stockholders’ receipt of proxy material, help lower the cost of the Annual Meeting and reduce the environmental impact of its annual meetings.

However, if a stockholder would prefer to receive printed proxy materials, the stockholder may follow the instructions included in the Notice.

How can I get electronic access to the proxy material?

The Notice will provide you with instructions regarding how to access the proxy materials on the Internet for the Annual Meeting. Also, the Notice will indicate how to instruct Paramount to send future proxy materials to you by email. Choosing to receive your future proxy materials by email will save us the cost of printing and mailing documents to you and will reduce the impact of our Annual Meeting of stockholders on the environment. If you choose to receive future proxy materials by email, you will receive an email next year with instructions containing a link to those materials and a link to the proxy voting site. Your election to receive proxy materials by email will remain in effect until you terminate it. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K accompanies the proxy materials but is not considered part of the proxy soliciting materials.

All proxy materials will be accessible at www.edocumentview.com/PZG and available on the Company’s website at www.paramountnevada.com.

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

For each matter, stockholders have one vote for each share of Company common stock held by such stockholder as of the Record Date (defined in the next sentence). Only stockholders of record as of the close of business on October 17, 2024 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to receive notice of, to attend and to vote at the Meeting. As of the Record Date, there were 66,058,111 shares of Paramount’s common stock issued and outstanding.

How do I register to attend the Annual Meeting virtually on the Internet?

If you are a registered stockholder, you do not need to register to attend the Annual Meeting virtually on the Internet. Please follow the instructions on the notice or proxy card that you received.

If you hold your shares through an intermediary, such as a bank or broker, you must register in advance to attend the Annual Meeting virtually on the Internet.

How do I vote my shares if I am a stockholder of record?

There are four ways to vote:

How do I vote my shares if I am a beneficial owner of shares held in street name as of the Record Date?

There are four ways to vote:

What is the quorum requirement for the Annual Meeting?

One-third of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter by a voting group, represented virtually online or by proxy, constitutes a quorum of that voting group for the action on the matter, and abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum. Your shares will be counted for purposes of determining if there is a quorum, whether representing votes for, against or abstained, if you:

If a quorum is not present, the Annual Meeting will be adjourned until a quorum is obtained.

How are proxies voted?

All stock represented by valid proxies received prior to the Annual Meeting will be voted and, where a stockholder specifies by means of the proxy a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the shares will be voted in accordance with the stockholder’s instructions.

How are votes counted?

Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed at the Annual Meeting, who will separately count “FOR” and “AGAINST” votes, abstentions, and broker non-votes. A “broker non-vote” occurs when a nominee holding stock for a beneficial owner does not receive instructions with respect to the proposals from the beneficial owner.

What happens if I do not give specific voting instructions?

If you are a stockholder of record and you either indicate when voting on the Internet or by telephone that you wish to vote as recommended by the Board or sign and return a proxy card without giving specific voting instructions then the proxy holders will vote your shares in the manner recommended by the Board on all matters presented in this proxy statement and with respect to any other matters properly presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion.

Brokers and other nominees who hold common stock in street name and do not receive instructions from their clients on how to vote on a particular proposal are not permitted to vote on these proposals. The absence of votes from brokers is referred to as broker non-votes. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum.

Can I revoke my proxy?

If you give a proxy, you may revoke it at any time before it is exercised. You may revoke your proxy in any one of three ways:

What happens if I do not vote?

The presence, virtually online or by proxy, of one-third of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter by a voting group is necessary to constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. For purposes of determining whether the stockholders have approved matters other than the election of directors, abstentions are treated as shares present or represented and voting, so abstaining has the same effect as a negative vote. Shares held by brokers who do not receive voting instructions on any proposal are not permitted to vote. They are counted as present for the purposes of determining the existence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting.

If my stock is held in “street name” by my broker, will my broker vote my stock for me?

If a stockholder’s shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee and the stockholder wishes to vote virtually online at the Annual Meeting, the stockholder must contact his or her broker or bank and obtain from the record holder a “legal” proxy issued in the stockholder’s name. Absent specific instructions from the beneficial owners of the shares, brokers who hold shares in “street name” for clients no longer have the authority to vote on proposals when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners. Proxies submitted without a vote by brokers on these matters are referred to as “broker non-votes.” Broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists at the Annual Meeting.

Who bears the cost of soliciting proxies?

Paramount may require the use of a proxy solicitation firm. Paramount would bear the cost of soliciting proxies and will reimburse brokerage firms and others for expenses involved in forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners or soliciting their execution. Paramount estimates, if required, that the costs associated with solicitations of the proxies requested by this proxy statement would be approximately $15,000 plus out-of-pocket expenses.

In addition to soliciting proxies by mail, certain members of the Company’s directors, officers, and regular employees, without additional compensation, may solicit proxies personally or by telephone, facsimile or email on the Company’s behalf.

Where can I find more information about Paramount?

Paramount filed its 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K with the SEC on September 26, 2024. That report, together with other corporate filings are available for your review on the Internet by visiting the Company website located at https://paramountnevada.com/PageBuilder/SEC-Filings or the SEC’s website located at www.sec.gov.

All written requests should be directed to: Corporate Communications, Paramount Gold Nevada Corp. 665 Anderson Street, Winnemucca, Nevada, 89445, USA.

We are subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which requires Paramount to file reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. The SEC maintains a website on the Internet that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding registrants, including Paramount, that file electronically with the SEC. The SEC’s website address is www.sec.gov.

Paramount’s filings with the applicable Canadian securities regulators are available for viewing on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (“SEDAR”) at www.sedar.com.

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of our common stock (“Section 16 Insiders”) to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock.

To our knowledge based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us and the Section 16 Insiders’ representations to us, for the year ended June 30, 2024, our Section 16 Insiders complied with their respective filing requirements under Section 16(a) on a timely basis.

RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY

RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF EACH NOMINEE UNDER PROPOSAL No. 1.

PROPOSAL No. 2: RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board has selected the firm of Moss Adams LLP as Paramount’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, and is submitting this selection for ratification by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting. If our stockholders do not ratify the selection of Moss Adams LLP, the Board will consider making a change of its auditors for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026.

Fees Paid to Auditors

The following table sets forth the fees accrued or paid to Moss Adams LLP for the year ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

In accordance with the Audit Committee Charter, all audit (including audit-related) and non-audit services performed by Moss Adams LLP, as described above, were pre-approved by the Audit Committee, which concluded that the provision of such services by Moss Adams LLP was compatible with the maintenance of its independence in the conduct of its auditing functions. The Audit Committee Charter authorizes the Audit Committee to appoint a subcommittee of one or more members of the Audit Committee and/or to pre-approve non-audit services by establishing detailed pre-approval policies as to the particular service, provided that the Audit Committee is informed of each service pre-approved (no less frequently than at each meeting of the Audit Committee) and that no pre-approval shall be delegated to Paramount’s management except as permitted by applicable law and regulation. In considering whether to pre-approve any non-audit services, the Audit Committee (or its delegates) considers whether the provision of such services is compatible with maintaining the independence of our independent registered public accounting firm.

Required Vote

To become effective, the proposal to ratify the appointment of Moss Adams LLP as Paramount’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending June 30, 2025, requires the affirmative vote of the majority of shares present virtually online or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote.

RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF MOSS ADAMS LLP AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM UNDER PROPOSAL No. 2.

BOARD MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES; ANNUAL MEETING ATTENDANCE

Our Board of Directors currently consists of eight directors, they are: Rachel Goldman, Glen Van Treek, Rudi Fronk, Dr. John Carden, Eliseo Gonzalez-Urien, Christopher Reynolds, Pierre Pelletier and Samantha Espley. The rules of the NYSE American require that a majority of our directors be independent directors. The Board has determined that Dr. Carden and Messrs., Fronk, Gonzalez-Urien, Reynolds, and Pelletier and Ms. Espley are independent directors having satisfied the independence requirements pursuant to the “non-employee director” definition of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act and National Instrument 58-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators (“CSA”) and pursuant to the “independent director” definition in Section 803A of the rules of the NYSE American. Mr. Reynolds is considered a “financial expert”.

During our last fiscal year, our Board met a total of eleven times. Each of our directors attended no less than 75% of our director meetings and no less than 75% of any committee meetings on which they serve.

An annual meeting of stockholders for the election of directors to succeed those whose terms expire and for the transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting, shall be held at such place, if any, on such date, and at such time as shall be fixed exclusively by resolution of the board of directors of the Corporation or a duly authorized committee thereof. Except as otherwise required by law, special meetings of stockholders of the Company for any purpose(s) may be called at any time only by or at the direction of (a) the board of directors of the Company, (b) the chairman of the board of directors or (c) two or more directors.

Although we do not have a formal policy regarding attendance by members of the Board at our annual meeting of stockholders, we encourage directors to attend, and historically more than a majority have done so either in person or made themselves available by webcast or telephone.

Board Leadership Structure

The Board of Directors separates the roles of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. Currently, Rudi Fronk is our acting non-Executive Chairman and Rachel Goldman is our Chief Executive Officer. Each year, our Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee assesses these roles and the board leadership structure to ensure the interests of Paramount, and its stockholders are best served.

Committees of the Board

Audit Committee Report

Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC designed to improve disclosures related to the functioning of corporate audit committees and to enhance the reliability and credibility of financial statements of public companies, the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors submits the following report:

Audit Committee Report to Stockholders

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for providing independent, objective oversight of the Company’s accounting functions and internal controls. The Audit Committee is composed of three directors, each of whom is independent as defined by the Listing Rules. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter approved by the Board of Directors and held four meetings in fiscal 2024. A copy of the charter is available on the Company’s website at www.paramountnevada.com by choosing the “Corporate” link then clicking on the “Governance” section.

Management is responsible for the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting, disclosure controls and procedures and the financial reporting process. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) standards and to issue a report thereon. The Audit Committee’s responsibility is to monitor and oversee these processes. The Audit Committee has established a mechanism to receive, retain and process complaints on auditing, accounting and internal control issues, including the confidential, anonymous submission by employees, vendors, customers and others of concerns on questionable accounting and auditing matters.

In connection with these responsibilities, the Audit Committee met with management and the independent registered public accounting firm to review and discuss the June 30, 2024, audited consolidated financial statements. The Audit Committee also discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required by Statement on Auditing Standards Update No. 61, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1, AU section 380), as adopted by the PCAOB in Rule 3200T. In addition, the Audit Committee received the written disclosures from the independent registered public accounting firm required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and the Audit Committee has discussed the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence from the Company and its management.

Based upon the Audit Committee’s discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, and the Audit Committee’s review of the representations of management and the independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee recommended that the Board of Directors include the audited consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2024 filed with the SEC on September 26, 2024.

The Audit Committee also has appointed, subject to stockholder ratification, Moss Adams LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2024.

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee currently consists of Dr. Carden (Chair), Messrs. Fronk, Gonzalez-Urien, Reynolds, Pelletier and Ms. Espley. All members of the Committee are independent directors. During our last fiscal year, the committee met three times.

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee assists the Board in carrying out its oversight responsibilities relating to the composition of the Board and further assists the Board by regularly assessing and making recommendations to improve the Company’s governance practices.

The Committee’s primary responsibilities include considering and making recommendations to the Board with respect to nominees for election to the Board consistent with criteria approved by the Board or the Committee, including director candidates submitted by Paramount’s stockholders.

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee’s responsibilities and key practices are more fully described in its charter.

Director Nominees

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee utilizes a variety of methods for identifying and evaluating director nominees. The Committee may consider candidates recommended by Paramount’s directors, members of management, professional search firms or stockholders. These candidates may be considered at any point during the year. The members of the Nominating Committee evaluate potential nominees, whether proposed by stockholders or otherwise, by reviewing their qualifications, reviewing results of personal and reference interviews and reviewing other relevant information. Candidates whose evaluations are favorable are then chosen by a majority of the members of the Nominating Committee to be recommended for nomination by the full Board. The full Board then selects and nominates candidates for election as directors by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting.

To date, our Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee has not paid a fee to any third party to identify or evaluate prospective nominees.

Qualifications

In evaluating nominees for election as a director, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee considers a number of factors, including the following:

The Independent Committee

The Independent Committee of the Board of Directors currently consists of three members, they are: Dr. Carden (Chair), Mr. Pelletier and Ms. Espley.

The committee, on behalf of the Board, is authorized to negotiate and approve the terms associated with offerings including all associated documents. The committee may authorize an officer to execute and deliver transaction documents that the committee deems such terms and provisions necessary or desirable.

In addition, the Independent Committee is authorized to consider, and if deemed advisable, to approve the participation in the offering of any related party to the Company, including any officer, director or significant stockholder.

The Technical Committee

The Technical Committee of the Board of Directors currently consists of four members, they are: Messrs. Pelletier (Chair), Gonzalez-Urien; Van Treek and Ms. Espley.

The committee, on behalf of the Board is to have periodic discussions with management related to the areas of focus related to process, programs, including environmental, social and those related to project development. The committee is to ensure that management is taking appropriate measures to achieve compliance with appropriate laws and legislation, and to ensure that principal risks and opportunities related to the area of focus are identified. The committee is to ensure that management has the proper resources allocated to address these risks and opportunities. The committee is to provide advice, counsel and recommendations to management as the committee deems appropriate.

Related Person Transaction Policies and Procedures

It is our practice and policy to comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations regarding related party transactions, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. A related person is any executive officer, director, or more than 5% stockholder of the Company, including any of their immediate family members, and any entity owned or controlled by such persons. Our Audit Committee has been charged with responsibility for approving all related party transactions as part of the Audit Committee’s overall responsibilities as set forth in its charter. In considering related party transactions, the Audit Committee takes into account the relevant available facts and circumstances. In the event a director has an interest in the proposed transaction, the director must recuse himself from the deliberations and approval.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, independent directors as a group, were compensated $136,583 (2023 - $108,750) for their services as directors of the Company’s Board.
