25.06.2019 | 0:11 Uhr | CNW
VANCOUVER, June 24, 2019 - eCobalt Solutions Inc. ("eCobalt" or the "Company") (TSX: ECS) (OTCQX: ECSIF) (FRA: ECO) is pleased to announce that it will seek approval for its proposed merger with Jervois Mining Ltd. ("Jervois") (ASX: JRV) (TSX-V: JRV) at the annual and special meeting of shareholders (the "Special Meeting") to be held on Friday, July 19, 2019 at the Terminal City Club, 837 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, B.C. at 10:00 a.m. (Pacific Time). The Company has mailed and filed on SEDAR a management information circular which describes the proposed merger with Jervois and the expected business of Jervois following completion of the merger. Holders of eCobalt common shares ("eCobalt Shareholders") will also be asked at the Special Meeting to consider the other matters described below.

The eCobalt Board of Directors unanimously recommends that eCobalt Shareholders vote in favour of the proposed merger with Jervois, as previously announced on April 1, 2019. Your vote is important – please vote today via phone, internet, mail or fax.


The Merger Resolution

At the Special Meeting, holders of eCobalt Shareholders will be asked to consider and vote upon the proposed merger between eCobalt and Jervois pursuant to a British Columbia plan of arrangement in which Jervois will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of eCobalt (the "Merger"). Each eCobalt Shareholder will be entitled to receive 1.65 common shares of Jervois for each share of eCobalt held. Jervois will seek conditional approval to list the Jervois Shares to be issued to eCobalt Shareholders under the eCobalt Arrangement on the TSX Venture Exchange. In addition, Jervois has applied to list its shares on the OTCQX market in the United States. The Merger will lead to an enlarged company with greater scale, liquidity and diversification with a full project pipeline of non-DRC cobalt assets, creating a global industry leader.

Holders of 19.05% of eCobalt's outstanding shares are committed to vote in favour of the Merger. In order to become effective, the Merger will require the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the total number of votes cast at the Special Meeting. Jervois' shareholders are expected to vote on the issue of shares in connection with the Merger on Thursday, July 18, 2019, which requires a majority of shares voting to approve. The Merger is expected to close on Tuesday, July 23, 2019, subject to shareholder approvals and satisfaction of other customary conditions.

Your vote is important regardless of the number of eCobalt common shares ("eCobalt Shares") you own. As an eCobalt Shareholder, it is very important that you carefully review the Notice of Meeting, Management Information Circular and related materials with respect to the Special Meeting (collectively, the "Meeting Materials") and then vote your eCobalt Shares at or ahead of the Special Meeting. You are eligible to vote your eCobalt Shares if you were an eCobalt Shareholder of record at the close of business on June 12, 2019. Registered Shareholders may vote in person at the Special Meeting or by proxy. All other shareholders must vote by the proxy deadline on Thursday, July 17, 2019 at 4:00 p.m. (Pacific Time). The Special Meeting Materials are available under eCobalt's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on eCobalt's website at www.ecobalt.com/investors/merger-announcement.


Benefits of the Merger

eCobalt expects the Merger to provide long-term financial, strategic and operational benefits and advantages for eCobalt Shareholders. In evaluating the Merger and unanimously reaching their conclusion and making their recommendations in support of the Merger, the eCobalt Board of Directors considered the benefits and advantages resulting from the Merger, including, but not limited to:

  • Exposure to the value creation potential of a global project pipeline of non-DRC cobalt amidst a backdrop of growing demand.

  • Expanded management team with combined skill set of exploration, development, financing, construction, commissioning and operations.

  • Access to the Australian and North American mining capital markets through listings on the Australian Stock Exchange, TSX Venture Exchange and OTCQX.
