Qualifying Transaction Details
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 (as defined below) outstanding and 185,000 GCC Shares potentially issuable by Greater China pursuant to the Tagliamonte Option.
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.
Closing of Private Placement
As detailed in a prior press release dated June 13, 2012, Greater China has closed a non-brokered private placement of 3,963,504 subscription receipts (the "Subscription Receipt") at a price of $0.22 per Subscription Receipt for gross proceeds of $871,970.88 (the "Offering"). The gross proceeds of the Offering have been deposited into escrow with Olympia Transfer Services Inc., as escrow agent, and will be released to Greater China upon notice to the escrow agent that the escrow release conditions discussed below (the "Release Conditions") have been satisfied. It is intended that the net proceeds of the Offering will be used for exploration of the Hebecourt Property and general working capital purposes.
Upon satisfaction of certain escrow release conditions in accordance with Exchange Policy 5.4 - Escrow, Vendor Consideration and Resale Restrictions, each Subscription Receipt will entitle the holder thereof to receive one common share (a "GCC Share"), and one half of one common share purchase warrant of GCC (each whole warrant, a "GCC Warrant"). Each GCC Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to acquire one common share of GCC (a "GCC Warrant Share") at a price of $0.35 for a period of 1 year following the date of satisfaction of the Release Conditions which include the TSXV issuance of the a final exchange bulletin in respect of Greater China's proposed qualifying transaction and the escrow agent receiving the confirmation certificate. Under the terms of the Offering a cash fee equal to 8% of the gross proceeds or $69,757.67 will be paid, upon the satisfaction of the Release Conditions and the release of funds from escrow, to certain persons who are at arms length to Greater China, as a finders fee.
The Resulting Issuer, Name Change and Resumption of Trading
Upon receiving conditional approval from the Exchange, Greater China has changed its name to Golden Bridge Mining Corporation ("Golden Bridge"). Following the Exchange's acceptance Golden Bridge will have 12,923,739 GCC Shares outstanding and 1,981,752 GCC Warrants outstanding.
As indicated in the bulletin issued by the Exchange, Greater China has changed its name to Golden Bridge and will resume trading on the Exchange at market open on July 9, 2012. Greater China will be classified as a Tier 2 "mineral exploration" company with the trading symbol "GBM".
