Mindoro Announces Reclassification From Tier 1 Issuer to Tier 2 Issuer

MANILA, PHILIPPINES–(Marketwired – Sept. 9, 2016) – Mindoro Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:MIO) (FRANKFURT:WKN 906167) (“Mindoro” or the “Company“) announces that it has received notification from the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSX-V”) of the Company’s reclassification from a Tier 1 Issuer to a Tier 2 Issuer of the TSX-V. This reclassification took effect on September 2, 2016.
The Company’s securities remain suspended from trading on the TSX-V as a result of the Company’s failure to pay its 2016 Annual Sustaining Fees. The delay in payment of these fees is due to the pending submission of required documents to the TSX-V pertaining to compliance with TSX-V Policy 3.1, Directors, Officers, Other Insiders & Personnel and Corporate Governance. The Company is currently working on said compliance documentation as well as the other requirements to enable the Company’s securities to resume trading on the TSX-V.
Despite such suspension, the Company is still compliant with the timely filing of its Financial Statements and other continuous disclosure requirements, including the holding of its Annual & Special Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for September 12, 2016.
