Leading Independent Proxy Advisory Firms Recommend Esperanza Shareholders Vote in Favour of Proposed Transaction With Alamos

16.08.2013  |  Marketwired
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired - Aug 16, 2013) - Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. ("ISS") and Glass Lewis & Co. ("Glass Lewis"), two leading proxy advisory firms, have recommended that shareholders of Esperanza Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE:EPZ) (OTCQX:ESPZF) vote FOR the plan of arrangement with Alamos Gold Inc. (TSX:AGI) (NYSE:AGI) to be voted on at a special meeting of the shareholders of Esperanza on August 27, 2013.

In both reports, ISS and Glass Lewis recommend shareholders vote FOR the proposed transaction (previously reported by news release on July 12, 2013) where Alamos has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Esperanza. Esperanza shareholders will receive consideration of C$0.85 in cash for each common share of Esperanza held and 0.0625 of an Alamos Warrant. Alamos has applied to have the Alamos Warrants listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

In their report ISS stated, "a vote FOR is warranted based on a review of the terms of the transaction and, in particular, the significant premium, the favorable market reaction and no significantly noted governance concerns."

Glass Lewis also concluded that, "the cash consideration provides shareholders with certainty of value and immediate liquidity at a time of significant industry uncertainty while the warrant offers shareholders participation in the longer term value of Alamos."
