BELMONT SEEKS APPROVAL FOR AN AMENDED EIGHT(8) TO ONE (1)
CONSOLIDATION OF SHARE CAPITAL
Vancouver, B.C. Canada , May 27, 2019 ; Belmont Resources Inc. (“Belmont”), (or the
“Company”), (TSX.V: BEA; FSE: L3L1; DTC Eligible – CUSIP 080499403).
Consolidation:
Belmont Resources Inc. (TSX-V: BEA) (the "Company") advises that due to current market conditions
and after extensive consultation, it will be immediately filing for, and seeking approva l of, documents
relating to an amended consolidation of the Company's issued and outstanding share capital with the TSX
Venture Exchange. The intended consolidation will be on a basis of one (1) post -consolidation common
share for every eight (8) pre-consolidation common s hares. The Company will not be proceeding with
the previously announced one (1) post-consolidated for three (3) pre-consolidated common share.
The Board of Directors believes that the proposed share consolidation is necessary to facilitate new equity
investments in the Company to finance continuing business activities , an increased exploration program
on the Pathfinder –Greenwood project and to investigate new opportunities that have been presented to
the Company.
This consolidation will reduce the issued and outstanding shares of the Company from 92,229,906 to
11,528,738 shares, assuming no other change in the issued capital. The Company's outstanding options
and warrants will also be adjuste d on the same basis (1 new for 8 old) as the common shares, with
proportionate adjustments being made to exercise prices. No fractional common shares will be issued,
and no cash will be paid in lieu of fractional post -consolidation common shares. The number of post -
consolidation common shares to be received by a shareholder will be rounded to the nearest whole
common share. A letter of transmittal will be mailed to shareholders advising that: (i) the consolidation
has taken effect; and (ii) shareholders should surrender their existing share certificates (representing pre -
consolidation common shares) for replacement share certificates (representing post -consolidation
common shares). Until surrendered, each existing share certificate will be deemed, for all purposes, to
represent the number of common shares to which the holder thereof is entitled as a result of the
consolidation. The Company's articles of incorporation authorize the board of directors to approve certain
changes to the Company's capital structure, including the consolidation. As such, shareholder approval is
not required. The consolidation is subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange. The Company
does not intend to change its name or its current trading symbol in connection with the proposed share
consolidation. The effective date of the consolidation will be disclosed in a subsequent news release.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of D irectors may, at its discretion, determine not to effect the
consolidation.
