VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Marketwired – June 16, 2016) – Nevsun Resources Ltd. (“Nevsun”) (TSX:NSU)(NYSE MKT:NSU) and Reservoir Minerals Inc. (“Reservoir”) (TSX VENTURE:RMC) are pleased to announce that Nevsun and Reservoir have agreed to increase the consideration to be paid to holders of Reservoir’s common shares by adding a cash payment of $C2.00 per Reservoir Share. Nevsun and Reservoir believe that the additional consideration will be favorably received by Reservoir shareholders.
Nevsun and Reservoir have effected this change by amending the previously announced statutory plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement“) to increase the consideration to be paid to holders of Reservoir’s common shares (“Reservoir Shares“) by approximately US$75 million. The terms of the Arrangement remain otherwise unchanged.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF RESERVOIR HAS UNANIMOUSLY DETERMINED THAT THE INCREASED CONSIDERATION TO BE RECEIVED BY THE RESERVOIR SHAREHOLDERS IS FAIR TO SUCH HOLDERS AND THAT THE ARRANGEMENT IS IN THE BEST INTEREST OF RESERVOIR.
