Great Bear Resources Mails Management Information Circular in Connection with Special Meeting to Approve Spin-Out of Great Bear Royalties

30.03.2020  |  CNW
VANCOUVER, March 30, 2020 - Great Bear Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: GBR) (the "Company" or "Great Bear") has filed the management information circular and related meeting materials in connection with the special meeting of shareholders (the "Meeting") to be held on April 23, 2020 at 1:00 p.m. (PST) at the offices of Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, Suite 2600, 595 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia. The board of directors has set March 16, 2020 as the record date for determining the shareholders entitled to receive notice and vote at the Meeting.

The purpose of the Meeting is to seek approval of the previously announced spinout by way of a plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") between Great Bear and Great Bear Royalties Corp. ("Great Bear Royalties"), whereby the owners of common shares of Great Bear (each a "GBR Share") are entitled to receive one-fourth of a common share of Great Bear Royalties for each GBR Share held immediately prior to the closing of the Arrangement. Following the Arrangement, Great Bear Royalties will no longer be a wholly owned subsidiary of Great Bear. The Arrangement will require approval by at least two-thirds (66.6%) of the votes cast by shareholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting.

Great Bear has obtained an interim order of the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the "Court"). Subject to approval by the Great Bear shareholders, Great Bear will seek a final order from the Court approving the Arrangement. The Company anticipates the Arrangement to close on or about April 28, 2020, and it is expected that shareholders of record immediately prior will be entitled to receive spinout shares.

Mailing of the management information circular and related meeting materials has commenced and shareholders should receive them shortly. All of the meeting materials can be downloaded from Great Bear's website at www.greatbearresources.ca and also from the company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Shareholder participation is important to the Company. Considering the uncertain circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company encourages shareholders to complete and return their proxies for the Meeting. Given the need for social distancing in the face of COVID-19, members of the board and management may not be attending the meeting in person and in such case will participate via teleconference.

The Company is closely monitoring developments related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Given the need for risk management, anyone who was planning to attend the Meeting is asked to advise Jeff Dare, Corporate Secretary at jdare@corexmanagement.com. In order to ensure the health and safety of all attendees, the Company asks that only registered shareholders attend the Meeting in person.

The deadline for returning proxies for the Meeting is Tuesday April 21, 2020 at 1:00 p.m. (PST). Voting results for the proposed plan of arrangement considered by the shareholders of Great Bear will be announced after the Meeting and available on SEDAR.

This announcement is for informational purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation or a proxy.
