KR Investment Ltd. Announces Completion of Reverse Takeover, Name Change to “Global Uranium Corp.” and Debt Settlement
In connection with the RTO, the Company has changed its name from KR Investment Ltd. to Global Uranium Corp. In connection with the RTO, the Common Shares will be delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”), effective as of the close of trading on May 6, 2024, and the Common Shares will begin trading on the CSE under the symbol “GURN” on May 7, 2024. Furthermore, as previously announced, the Company has completed a debt settlement in the amount of $149,690 through the issuance of 665,288 Common Shares to certain creditors of the Company.
S. John Kim, Chief Executive Officer of the Company stated: “This is a significant accomplishment for the Company. We look forward to building upon the Wing Lake Property to establish Global Uranium as the leading uranium development company to meet the rising global demand for this vital resource”.
Completion of RTO
Pursuant to the Securities Exchange Agreement, the Company has acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of REEC in exchange for Common Shares issued on a one-for-one basis to the shareholders of REEC (resulting in the issuance of 18,550,500 Common Shares to the former REEC shareholders). The 18,400,000 outstanding warrants of REEC (the “REEC Warrants”), which are exercisable at $0.10 until March 7, 2026, were adjusted in accordance with their contractual terms as a result of the RTO, with each such REEC Warrant becoming exercisable for one Common Share at the same exercise price. The transaction constitutes a reverse takeover transaction of the Company.
The completion of the RTO constitutes a change of business for the Company. The Company intends to carry on REEC’s mineral exploration and development business, currently focused on the exploration of the Wing Lake Uranium Property (the “Wing Lake Property”) located in the Mudjatik Domain of Northern Saskatchewan, Canada. Details relating to the Wing Lake Property and the business of REEC can be found in the Company’s listing statement dated April 29, 2024 (the “Listing Statement”) and filed on the Company’s profile on SEDAR+. The Company may also target other mineral exploration opportunities in North America if it determines such targets have sufficient geological or economic merit and if the Company has adequate financial resources to complete such acquisitions.
