VANCOUVER, Sept. 22, 2016 /CNW/ - Northern Lion Gold Corp.
(the "Company") announced today that it has received the
approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") to
proceed with the consolidation of its outstanding common shares
(each, a "Share") on the basis of two (2) pre-consolidation
Shares for each one (1) post-consolidation Share (the
"Consolidation") previously announced September 1, 2016. As part of the
Consolidation, the Board of Directors have also approved moving to
an unlimited share capital.
Accordingly, effective at market opening on September 23, 2016, the Company's Shares will
commence trading on the Exchange on a post-Consolidation
basis. Following the Consolidation, the Company will have
approximately 1,481,184 Shares issued and outstanding.
No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the
Consolidation. In the event that the Consolidation would otherwise
result in the issuance of a fractional share, such fractional share
interest that is less than one-half of a Share will be cancelled
and each fractional common share that is at least one-half of a
Share will be changed to one whole Share. A Letter of
Transmittal with respect to the Consolidation will be mailed to the
shareholders of the Company post-Consolidation describing the
process by which shareholders may obtain new certificates
representing their consolidated Shares.
The Company also announces that the Exchange has granted the
Company an extension to the period by which the Company must
satisfy its continued listing requirement deficiency or be
transferred to the NEX referenced in the Company's September 1, 2016 news release. The Company
is actively searching for opportunities with interested parties to
create a value enhancing transaction that would enable the Company
to meet the continued listing requirements.
