Alabama Graphite Files Management Information Circular in Connection with Special Meeting of Securityholders to Consider Acquisition by Westwater Resources

13.02.2018  |  GlobeNewswire
TORONTO, Feb. 12, 2018 - Alabama Graphite Corp. (“Alabama Graphite” or the “Corporation”) (TSX-V:CSPG) (OTCQB:CSPGF) (FRANKFURT:1AG) is pleased to announce that it has filed its Management Information Circular (the “Circular”) and related proxy materials on SEDAR and its website (www.alabamagraphite.com), in advance of the Corporation’s special meeting of securityholders to be held on March 9, 2018 (the “Special Meeting”). The purpose of the Special Meeting is to seek approval of Alabama Graphite’s proposed plan of arrangement transaction (the “Arrangement”) with Westwater Resources, Inc. (“Westwater”) (NASDAQ:WWR).


The Arrangement Agreement

As previously announced on December 13, 2017, Alabama Graphite has entered into a definitive agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) with Westwater for the purchase of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Alabama Graphite (the “Alabama Graphite Shares”). Under the Arrangement, as more particularly described in the Circular, a holder of Alabama Graphite Shares will receive at the effective time of the Arrangement, for each Alabama Graphite Share held, 0.08 of a share of Westwater common stock (each, a “Westwater Share”). Furthermore, Westwater shall issue options (the “Replacement Options”) in exchange for options to purchase Alabama Graphite Shares (“Alabama Graphite Options”) under the Arrangement which Replacement Options shall have terms and conditions substantially similar to the original Alabama Graphite Options. Each holder of an Alabama Graphite warrant to purchase Alabama Graphite Shares (an “Alabama Graphite Warrant”) outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Arrangement, shall receive upon the subsequent exercise of such holder’s Alabama Graphite Warrant, in accordance with its terms, and shall accept in lieu of each Alabama Graphite Common Share to which such holder was theretofore entitled upon such exercise but for the same aggregate consideration payable therefor, 0.08 of a Westwater Share. If approved at the Special Meeting, closing of the Arrangement remains on track to occur in the second quarter of 2018, following which, the Alabama Graphite Shares will be delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”).


SECURITYHOLDER VOTING INFORMATION

Alabama Graphite’s securityholders of record on January 31, 2018 will receive notice of, and be entitled to vote at, the Special Meeting. To become effective, the Arrangement must be approved by: (i) at least two-thirds of the votes cast by the shareholders of Alabama Graphite at the Special Meeting present in person or represented by proxy; and (ii) at least two-thirds of the votes cast by securityholders of Alabama Graphite at the meeting present in person or represented by proxy voting as a single class. The Arrangement also requires the approval of the Supreme Court of British Columbia. In addition to securityholder and court approvals, the Arrangement is subject to certain other closing conditions customary in transactions of this nature which are described in the Circular. Securityholders are encouraged to read the Circular as it provides important information about Alabama Graphite, Westwater and the Arrangement.

Management and the Board of Directors of both Westwater and Alabama Graphite, as well as the Special Committee of Alabama Graphite’s Board of Directors, are unanimously in support of the Arrangement.
