VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 03/30/11 -- Megastar Development Corporation ('Megastar' or the 'Company') (TSX VENTURE: MDV)(FRANKFURT: M5Q) wishes to advise that the reorganization of its business through the completion of a Plan of Arrangement, as detailed in the November 25, 2010 Information Circular and which included a share exchange by the Megastar shareholders of record on January 7, 2011 of the Megastar Class A Shares for Megastar New Common Shares and Eloro Resources Ltd. ('Eloro') Shares, completed on March 15, 2011. Megastar has determined that the fair market value of each Eloro Share distributed on the exchange was equal to $0.087, with 1.6616329869 Eloro Shares distributed for every Megastar Class A Share. Further, Megastar has determined that the paid-up capital of each Megastar Class A Share was equal to $0.1504. Accordingly, management has concluded that no deemed dividend should result.
A Shareholder will only recognize a capital gain on the Share Exchange to the extent that the fair market value of the Eloro Shares ($0.087) and the adjusted cost base of the Megastar New Common Shares received on the Share Exchange, less the amount of any dividend deemed received ($nil) exceeds the adjusted cost base of the Shareholder's Class A Common Shares determined immediately before the Share Exchange.
The adjusted cost base to a Shareholder of the Eloro Shares received on the Share Exchange will be equal to their fair market value ($0.087). The adjusted cost base to a Shareholder of the Megastar New Common Shares received on the Share Exchange will be equal to the excess, if any, of such Shareholder's adjusted cost base of the Class A Common Shares less the fair market value of the Eloro Shares received by such Shareholder.
