A copy of the Special Master’s recommendation can be found at www.goldreserve.bm/special-masters-recommendation. Parties in interest have an opportunity to object to the Special Master’s recommendation, and a Court hearing will be subsequently held for the Court to consider approval (if any) of the selection of a “Stalking Horse.”
