02.08.2012  |  Marketwired
TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 08/02/12 -- Continental Nickel Limited (TSX VENTURE: CNI) ("Continental" or "CNI") announces that the Board of Directors of Continental has determined, after discussions with IMX Resources Limited ("IMX"), to reschedule the special meeting of shareholders of CNI (the "Shareholder Meeting") called to consider the proposed arrangement with IMX (the "Arrangement") from August 29, 2012 to a new Shareholder Meeting date of Wednesday, September 12, 2012.

As previously announced, under the proposed Arrangement each Continental shareholder will receive 3.7 IMX ordinary shares plus 0.5 of an ordinary share purchase warrant for each Continental common share held. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one IMX ordinary share at an exercise price of A$0.60 or C$0.62 per IMX ordinary share (at the sole election of the holder) and will expire three years from completion of the Arrangement. Any Continental common shares acquired on exercise of existing Continental options prior to the completion date of the transaction will participate in the Arrangement.

Outstanding Continental options on the effective date of the Arrangement will, as previously disclosed, receive replacement IMX options. The number of replacement options and the exercise price of those options will be determined based on the effective exchange ratio of the Arrangement as contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement.

Further information regarding the proposed Arrangement and the Shareholder Meeting will be contained in an information circular that Continental will prepare, file and mail to Continental shareholders shortly. All shareholders are urged to read such materials carefully once they become available as they will contain additional important information concerning the Arrangement.

Subject to obtaining the approval of CNI shareholders at the Shareholder Meeting and the approval of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) and satisfying certain other conditions, including receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, the proposed Arrangement is currently anticipated to close in September 2012, following the date of the Shareholder Meeting.
