Waterton's unsolicited offer represents proceeds to the shareholders of the Company of approximately C$58.8 million. Net of the Company's estimated working capital, this unsolicited offer implies a negative value for the Company's mineral properties.
The Company will update its shareholders following the Board of Directors' meeting. In the meantime, shareholders are urged to take no actions in connection with the Waterton offer at this time.
The Company has engaged Maxit Capital as its financial advisors and Axium Law Corporation as its legal advisors to assist in responding to this unsolicited takeover attempt.
