OREX ANNOUNCES SHARE CONSOLIDATION
VANCOUVER, BC
,
Sept. 22, 2023
/CNW/ -
Orex Minerals Inc.
(TSXV: REX) (OTCQB: ORMNF)
("
Orex
" or the "
Company
") today announced that, effective
September 27, 2023
, the Company will
consolidate its issued and outstanding common shares (the "
Shares
") at a ratio of ten (10) pre-
consolidation Shares to one (1) post-consolidation share (the "
Consolidation
"). The reasons for the
Consolidation are to increase the Company's flexibility and competitiveness in the marketplace and
to attract new equity investment in the Company.
The Shares are expected to commence trading on a consolidated basis at the start of trading on
Wednesday, September 27, 2023
. Following completion of the Consolidation, the Company expects
to have approximately 18.74 million Shares outstanding.
No fractional Shares will be issued under the Consolidation. The holdings of any shareholder who
would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional Share as a result of the Consolidation shall be
rounded up to the next higher whole number if the fraction is 0.5 or greater and rounded down to the
next lower whole number if the fraction is less than 0.5. The Consolidation will not affect any
shareholder's percentage ownership in the Company other than by the minimal effect of the
aforementioned elimination of fractional Shares, even though such ownership will be represented by
a smaller number of Shares. Instead, the Consolidation will reduce proportionately the number of
Shares held by all shareholders.
Shareholders who hold uncertificated Shares (including Shares held through a brokerage account
and/or not represented by a physical share certificate), will have their holdings electronically
adjusted by the Company's transfer agent or by their brokerage firms, banks, trust or other
nominees. Such shareholders do not need to take any additional actions to exchange their pre-
Consolidation Shares for post-Consolidation Shares. Letters of transmittal are being mailed to all
registered shareholders holding share certificates with instructions on how to exchange existing
share certificate(s) for new share certificate(s).
A copy of the letter of transmittal will also be available on the Company's profile on SEDAR+.
The Company's new CUSIP number for the post-Consolidation Shares will be 68616X209 and its
new ISIN number is CA68616X2095.
