Explanatory Note

On December 15, 2022, NioCorp Developments Ltd. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Form 8-K”) disclosing the results of the Company’s 2022 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, which was held on December 15, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Meeting”).

The sole purpose of this Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) is to update Item 5.07 of the Original Form 8-K to disclose the decision of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) on how frequently the Company will conduct future nonbinding shareholder advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers. Except as described above, all of the other information in the Original Form 8-K remains unchanged.

Item 5.07

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

As previously reported in the Original Form 8-K, at the 2022 Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders voted, on a nonbinding, advisory basis, on the frequency of future shareholder advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers. The highest number of votes cast by the Company’s shareholders was in favor of holding a nonbinding advisory vote every year, which was consistent with the Board’s recommendation in the Management Information and Proxy Circular for the 2022 Annual Meeting. In light of these results, the Board has decided that the Company will hold a nonbinding, advisory vote to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers every year until the next required nonbinding, advisory vote on the frequency of future shareholder advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, which is expected to take place no later than the Company’s 2028 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
