United Silver Corporation Announces Extraordinary General Meeting
![United Silver Corporation Announces Extraordinary General Meeting](https://www.goldseiten.de/media/goldseiten-news.jpg)
United Silver Corp. ('United Silver Corp.?, the 'Company?, or 'USC?:
TSX; USC: OTC; USCZF: Frankfurt: UM8) announces that in furtherance
of its reformulation and re-evaluation of its mine plan announced on
August 24, 2012, it has called an extraordinary shareholder meeting
scheduled for October 31, 2012 in Vancouver, BC. The purpose of the
meeting is to approve the Company′s ability to preserve cash by issuing
convertible notes to Hale Capital Partners ('Hale?) in place of paying
cash for our quarterly interest payments due.
On February 1, 2012, we announced that we had borrowed $6,300,000 US
from Hale under a convertible note (the 'Note?) . The Note is
convertible into shares at a conversion price of $0.50 US per share.
Under the Note, interest is payable quarterly in cash or, at our
election, by issuance of additional convertible notes convertible at a
price based on the market price at the time the interest payment was
due. We have already issued two notes in place of paying cash for
interest payments that were due May 1 and August 1, 2012. The next
interest payment is due November 1, 2012.
Under policies of the TSX Stock Exchange, any party who has the right to
convert securities, including convertible notes, into 20% or more of the
Company′s outstanding common stock is considered a 'control person?.
Shareholder approval is required to issue securities to any person where
such issuance would create a new control person. By the Company issuing
new interest payment convertible notes to Hale in the future, Hale would
be deemed a control person because if it converted all its notes into
shares, it would hold 20% or more of the Company′s shares.
The Company is pleased with the current progress on the reformulation
and re-evaluation of its mine plan and expects to be in a position to
make announcements in the near future. A part of our plan will be the
continued judicious and prudent use and preservation of cash, including
our ability to issue convertible notes to Hale for interest payments
instead of using limited cash reserves.
A notice of meeting and information circular has been mailed to all
shareholders and should be received by now. Our board unanimously urges
our shareholders to vote in favour of the items listed for approval at
the meeting by marking your proxies and sending them to our transfer
agent as per the proxy form instructions, or attending the meeting in
person in Vancouver.
We look forward to voting participation of our shareholders with this
important decision.
