THOR MINING PLC
Thor Mining PLC ("Thor" or the "Company")
The Directors of Thor Mining PLC (AIM, ASX: THR) today released
the following announcement on the Australian Securities Exchange
("ASX"), concerning the Company's share capital reorganisation, as
required under the listing rules of the ASX.
Company Announcements Office,
ASX Securities Limited,
20, Bridge Street,
Sydney, N.S.W. 2000
CAPITAL REORGANISATION
Further to shareholder approval on 24 November 2016, the Company
has implemented a capital reorganisation as follows:
-- a subdivision of each of the Company's Ordinary Shares of
0.01p each, into one deferred share of 0.0096p each ("A Deferred
Share") and one ordinary share of 0.0004p ("Subdivided Ordinary
Share").
The A Deferred Shares have limited economic value as they do not
carry any voting or dividend rights and do not entitle the holders
to participate in any return of capital on a winding up.
-- a reduction in the number of Subdivided Ordinary Shares) by
way of a consolidation on the basis of 25 Subdivided Ordinary
Shares into one new ordinary share of 0.01p each ("New Ordinary
Share").
The impact on the Company's ASX traded CDI's is that, effective
1 December 2016, the total number of ASX listed CDI's has reduced
from 2,774,119,029 to 110,964,761, and the total number of AIM
traded ordinary shares has reduced from 5,154,839,454 to
206,193,579. The total issued ordinary share capital of the Company
is now 317,158,340.
Following the consolidation, save for any minor adjustment
resulting from the rounding down of fractional holdings, all
shareholders will retain the same percentage interest in the
Company's issued ordinary share capital as that held immediately
prior to the implementation of the consolidation. Shareholders
holding fewer than 25 Subdivided Ordinary Shares or CDIs
immediately prior to the consolidation will cease to be
shareholders of the Company.
The number of unlisted options (termed warrants in the United
Kingdom) have been consolidated in the same ratio as the ordinary
shares and CDIs, and their exercise prices have been amended in
inverse proportion to that ratio.
The attached Appendix 3B sets out the new post-consolidation
number of ordinary shares, CDIs and unlisted options, together with
the Company's amended calculation of available placement
capacity.
The last day for trading in CDIs on a pre-consolidation basis
was 28 November 2016. Normal trading on the post consolidation CDIs
will commence on 8 December 2016. Accordingly, the Company's
trading code on the ASX changed to THRDC from 29 November 2016, and
will revert to THR on 8 December 2016.
