TSX-V:GMN
TORONTO, March 7,
2023 /CNW/ - (TSXV: GMN) GobiMin Inc.
("GobiMin" or the "Company") announces that its
privatization by way of share consolidation and purchase of
fractional post-consolidated shares for cancellation has been
completed resulting in Belmont Holdings Group Limited
("Belmont") as the sole
shareholder of the Company. Belmont, a British
Virgin Islands company, is wholly-owned and controlled by
Mr. Felipe Tan, the President, the
Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company.
On March 6, 2023, the common
shares of the Company were consolidated on the basis of 30,000,000
pre-consolidated common shares to one post-consolidated common
shares resulting in only Belmont
holding at least one whole post-consolidated common share. On
March 7, 2023, the fractional
post-consolidated shares held by holders of less than one
post-consolidated share were deemed to be purchased and cancelled
and the rights of such former holders are limited to receiving
without interest a cash payment of CAN$1.84, less any amount in
respect of taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld, for
each pre-consolidation common share held immediately prior to the
share consolidation against presentation and surrender of their
share certificates together with a duly completed letter of
transmittal.
Those who were registered shareholders with addresses outside of
China will need to present and
surrender to Computershare Investor Services Inc. their share
certificates representing their common shares together with a duly
completed letter of transmittal. Those who were registered
shareholders with addresses in China (and for greater certainty, China includes Hong
Kong) will need to present and surrender to the Company
their share certificates representing their common shares together
with a duly completed letter of transmittal. The applicable
letter of transmittal form was included with the mailing of the
notice and information circular for the special meeting of
shareholders of the Company that was held on February 24, 2023 and is available on SEDAR at
www.sedar.com. Those who were registered shareholders are
directed to the detailed instructions in the letter of transmittal
form and the information circular for the presentation and
surrender of their share certificates for payment of the purchase
price. Those who were beneficial shareholders (that is,
holding through brokers, investment dealers, banks, trust companies
or other nominees) should contact their intermediary who held the
common shares on their behalf to confirm or arrange for the
delivery of the purchase price to which they are entitled.
The common shares of the Company are expected to be delisted
from the TSX Venture Exchange after market close on or after
March 9, 2023 and the Company will be
applying to applicable Canadian securities regulatory authorities
to cease to be a reporting issuer in the relevant provinces.
