SRHI Inc. Receives Extension of Listing Review by TSX
September 03 2020 - 07:30AM
GlobeNewswire Inc.
SRHI Inc. (“
SRHI” or the
“
Company”) (TSX: SRHI; SRHI.WT) announces that the
Toronto Stock Exchange (the “
TSX”) has notified
the Company that it is extending the review period by 60 days for
the eligibility of the Company’s securities for continued listing
on the TSX pursuant to the requirements of the TSX Company Manual
(the “
Manual”). On May 13, 2020, the Company
announced that the TSX had notified the Company that it was
reviewing the eligibility of the Company’s securities for continued
listing on the TSX.
The extension will permit the Company to
complete the necessary customary documentation required under the
Judicial Reorganization Agreement (“JRA”) entered
into by the Company on August 24, 2020. The TSX has deferred its
delisting decision until no later than November 2, 2020. The
Company’s securities will continue to trade on the TSX during the
review process. If the Company cannot demonstrate that it meets
applicable TSX listing requirements set out in the Manual prior to
such time, the Company’s securities may be delisted.
There can be no assurance that the Company will
successfully regain compliance with the TSX listing requirements
within this time period, in which case the Company would need to
explore alternative listing platforms.
The TSX’s review was initiated as result of the
Company’s press release dated May 12, 2020 – SRHI Inc. Announces
MTV Files For Creditor Protection in Chile. On August 24, 2020, the
Company announced a successful resolution to the creditor
protection process with the execution of the JRA subject to the
completion of all customary documentation. The Company is confident
that all customary documentation required to be executed as
outlined in the JRA will be completed by October 30, 2020 and that
the Company’s eligibility for continued listing on the TSX will be
maintained.
The TSX notification and review does not affect
the Company’s business operations or applicable Canadian securities
law reporting requirements.
The Company will provide a further update on
this process once more information is available.
