Red Crescent Resources Limited: Update on Ebullio Mining Transaction
At the Shareholders' Meeting to consider the above transaction held on March 21, 2014 approximately 88% of the votes cast were in favour of the transaction.
In addition, the parties have agreed to extend the closing date to april 15, 2014 on the basis that:
- Ebullio Mining undertakes that upon closing it will be responsible for the periodic costs of the Turkish operations incurred in the usual course of business from 1 April through to closing.
- In the event that any event or issue comes to light prior to completion and which relates to the Sivas licences and which would have a material adverse economic impact on the ability of RCR Quantum to generate revenue from the extraction and sale of copper ore from the territory to which such licences relate, then Ebullio is entitled to rescind the SPA, unless such issue is capable of remedy and Red Crescent has remedied the issue to the reasonable satisfaction of Ebullio (in which case Ebullio would be required to complete the acquisition).
- If any other matter comes to light which would otherwise be a warranty claim then there is no right to rescind the SPA and if Ebullio wished to take action it would be required to complete and then bring a claim for contractual damages which would involve withholding a sum otherwise payments under the promissory note. In short, Ebullio will be required to complete the acquisition on April 15, 2014 unless an event described in point 2 above comes to light.
In addition, as at the close of business today Messrs. Schaffalitzky, Khan and Raman will be resigning as directors of RCR leaving Messrs. Perry and Elmastas as continuing directors.
It is also expected that in accordance with the transaction as approved by shareholders RCR will be cease-traded within the next few days by the Canadian securities regulatory authorities having jurisdiction and it will be delisted from the Toronto and Frankfurt stock exchanges following the closing on April 15, 2014.
