Northquest Ltd. (TSXV:NQ) (FRANKFURT:N3Q) (the “Company“) and Nord Gold SE (LSE:NORD) (“Nordgold“) are pleased to announce the successful completion of the previously announced statutory plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement“) under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), whereby Nordgold acquired all of the outstanding common shares of the Company (the “Shares“) that it did not already own. The Arrangement became effective on October 14, 2016 (the “Effective Date“).
Under the terms of the Arrangement, each former holder of the Shares will receive $0.26 in cash per Share, and each former holder of the outstanding warrants to purchase Shares (the “Warrants“) will receive $0.10 in cash per Warrant.
Nordgold has delivered to Computershare Investor Services Inc., the depositary for the Arrangement, sufficient funds to enable the depositary to make the payments in accordance with the terms of the Arrangement.
It is anticipated that the Shares will be delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange in the coming days, and that the Company will subsequently cease to be a reporting issuer in the jurisdictions in which it is currently a reporting issuer.
