Greater China is also pleased to announce that it has posted a Filing Statement dated June 13, 2012 on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) disclosing the details of its Qualifying Transaction and concurrent private placement financing. The Qualifying Transaction is scheduled to close on or about June 25, 2012 and remains subject to final exchange approval.
On April 27, 2012 Greater China entered into a definitive agreement (the "Agreement") dated April 27, 2012 with Northern Skye Resources Ltd. ("Northern Skye"), Trueclaim Exploration Inc. and Frank P. Tagliamonte ("Tagliamonte") in respect of a proposed Qualifying Transaction (as defined in Exchange Policy 2.4) (the "Transaction").
On completion of the Transaction and pursuant to the Agreement, Northern Skye will assign Greater China: (i) an option to earn up to an undivided 50% interest in mineral claims located in the province of Quebec, known as the Hebecourt Project, which are currently subject to an option agreement dated July 18, 2011 in favour of Northern Skye from the registered holder of the claims, Tagliamonte (the "Tagliamonte Option"); and (ii) a 50% working interest in mineral claims held by Northern Skye that are contiguous to the Tagliamonte Option (the "Staked Claims"), subject only to a net smelter return royalty of 2.5% in favour of Northern Skye (collectively the Staked Claims and the Tagliamonte Option, the "Property"). The Agreement also includes a term sheet for a joint venture agreement that is expected to be entered into by Greater China and Northern Skye after completion of the Transaction.
Under the terms of the Agreement, Greater China must pay to Tagliamonte the aggregate sum of $300,000 in cash over a period of four years; incur cumulative expenditures of not less than $2,500,000 on or in respect of the Property over a period of five years (approximately $120,000 of which has already been spent by Northern Skye and will be reimbursed by Greater China); and issue to Tagliamonte the aggregate of 185,000 common shares of Greater China over a four year period. Upon completion of the qualifying transaction Greater China will have 8,960,235 GCC Shares outstanding and 185,000 GCC Shares potentially issuable by Greater China pursuant to the Tagliamonte Option. Upon the satisfaction of the Release Conditions Greater China will have 12,923,739 GCC Shares outstanding and 1,981,752 GCC Warrants outstanding.
The Transaction is subject to satisfaction or waiver of conditions set out in the Agreement, including the following: (i) receipt of all required or desirable regulatory approvals, consents and waivers; and (ii) compliance with all other applicable regulatory requirements and conditions. The Transaction does not constitute a "Non-Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction" as defined in Exchange Policy 2.4 and consequently Greater China is not required to obtain shareholder approval for the Transaction.
