TXG Torex Gold Resources Inc

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - May 21, 2014) - Torex Gold Resources Inc. (the "Company" or "Torex") (TSX:TXG)(TSX:TXG.WT) announced that it has entered into a shareholder rights plan agreement to ensure, to the extent possible, that all shareholders of Torex are treated fairly in connection with any take-over bid for Torex. The rights plan was not adopted in response to any specific proposal or intention to acquire control of Torex. The rights plan has been approved by the Toronto Stock Exchange and is conditional upon shareholders ratification at the annual and special meeting of shareholders of Torex, scheduled to be held on June 26, 2014.

Under the term of the rights plan, one right has been issued with respect to each common share of Torex issued and outstanding as of May 21, 2014 and one right will also be issued and will attach to each common share subsequently issued. These rights will become exercisable only when a person, including any party related to it, acquires or attempts to acquire 20 percent or more of Torex's outstanding common shares without complying with the "Permitted Bid" provisions of the rights plan, or without approval of Torex's board of directors. Should such an acquisition occur or be announced, each right would, upon exercise, entitle a rights holder, other than the acquiring person and related persons, to purchase common shares of Torex at a 50% discount to the market price at the time. Under the rights plan, a Permitted Bid is a bid which is made to all holders of the shares and which is open for acceptance for not less than 60 days.
