Abitibi Royalties Announces Further Update Following Court Hearing to Enforce Contractual Rights

16.06.2014  |  Marketwired

VAL-D'OR, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Jun 16, 2014) - Abitibi Royalties Inc. (TSX VENTURE:RZZ) ("Abitibi Royalties" or the "Company") is pleased to provide a further update on its actions to protect the Company's rights with respect to the Malartic CHL Property. On June 9, 2014, the Company's lawyers made submissions at the hearing for final approval of the plan of arrangement among Osisko Mining Corp. ("Osisko"), Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. and Yamana Gold Inc. dated April 16, 2014 (the "Plan of Arrangement"). The Plan of Arrangement was approved by the Court, after hearing Abitibi Royalties' arguments and after ordering that certain modifications be made to the Plan of Arrangement as a result of such arguments.

As announced in the Company's June 6, 2014 news release, the Plan of Arrangement was amended to reflect that the Malartic CHL Property is not being transferred to the partnership along with the other Canadian Malartic assets and will be retained by Osisko and that the proposed 5% NSR to be granted on the Canadian Malartic assets does not include the Malartic CHL Property. In addition, Osisko undertook not to transfer the Malartic CHL Property without first notifying Abitibi Royalties.

Abitibi Royalties also advised the Court that, at this stage in the proceedings, its primary claim is that Osisko has triggered Abitibi Royalties' right to re-acquire Osisko's 70% interest in the Malartic CHL Property, where recent exploration drilling has returned significant gold mineralization at the Odyssey Zones, as referenced in Abitibi Royalties' news release of April 23, 2014.

On June 13, 2014, the Québec Superior Court ordered that Abitibi Royalties' claims, and most importantly, whether Abitibi Royalties is entitled to a right of first refusal on Osisko's interest in the Malartic CHL Property as a result of Osisko's actions, be sent to arbitration without costs to either party, with the detailed reasoning for this decision to follow. Abitibi Royalties will carefully consider the Court's reasons once they have been received and will consider all of its options at that time in order to protect all of its rights and interests in the Malartic CHL Property.
