Completion of the Transaction is subject to a number of standard closing conditions and final Exchange approval. A copy of the Company’s Filing Statement, which contains detailed information in respect of Rojo, Salvation, and the proposed business of the combined company on completion of the Transaction, has been filed and is available under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com.
