Fairmont Announces Consolidation
Vancouver, September 28, 2018 - Fairmont Resources Inc. (TSXV: FMR) ("Fairmont" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that effective October 1, 2018, the Company will consolidate its common shares on the basis of one (1) new post-consolidation common share for every ten (10) pre-consolidation common shares (the "Consolidation"). Effective at the opening of trade on Tuesday, October 2, 2018, common shares of the Company will commence trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") on a consolidated basis.
As a result of the Consolidation, the Company's currently outstanding 40,683,287 common shares will be reduced to approximately 4,068,328 common shares. No fractional shares will be issued. Any fractions of a share will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of common shares. The Company's name and trading symbol will remain unchanged and it will not be completing any other restructuring in connection with the Consolidation. The Consolidation was approved by the shareholders of the Company on September 21, 2018 and by the Exchange on September 28, 2018.
The Company's new CUSIP number is 305554305 and the new ISIN number is CA3055543050.
Registered shareholders will be required to exchange their share certificates representing pre- Consolidation common shares for new share certificates representing post-Consolidation common shares. Registered shareholders will be sent a transmittal letter, as soon as practicable after the effective date of the Consolidation. The letter of transmittal will contain instructions on how certificate(s) representing pre-Consolidation shares may be surrendered to the Company's transfer agent, TSX Trust Company. The transfer agent will forward to each registered shareholder who has provided the required documents a new share certificate representing the number of post-Consolidation common shares to which the shareholder is entitled. Until surrendered, each share certificate representing pre-Consolidation common shares of the Company will be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of whole post-Consolidation common shares to which the holder is entitled as a result of the Consolidation.
