Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On February 4, 2026, Craig Ransley resigned from the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Hall Chadwick Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), effective February 4, 2026 (the “Resignation”). The Resignation was not related to a disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies, or practices.
On February 4, 2026, the Board appointed Mr. Matthew J. Hudson, age 50, to serve as a director of the Company commencing on February 4, 2026. The Board believes that Mr. Hudson’s extensive management experience in mineral exploration and mineral production companies qualifies him to serve on the Board.
Mr. Hudson has been involved in the resources industry for over 20 years during which time he has held board positions in listed companies both in Australia and Canada. He was a founding director of Sendero Resources (TSX-V:SEND) and one of the founding shareholders of Sierra Madre Gold & Silver (TSX-V:SM). Mr. Hudson is currently on the board of Portia Resources Pty Ltd which owns and operates the Portia gold and copper mine in South Australia as well as the Paratoo copper and rare earths project. Prior to his involvement in the resources industry, Mr. Hudson worked in corporate finance with both Credit Suisse and Arthur Andersen. Mr. Hudson holds a Bachelor of Commerce degree from the University of Melbourne.
In connection with his appointment, Mr. Hudson is expected to enter into the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement for directors and officers.
