TORONTO, July 06, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SOPerior Fertilizer Corp. (“SOP” or the “Company”) (TSX:SOP) further to its press release of June 10, 2020, the Company is pleased to announce it anticipates closing the final tranche of the private placement on or before July 31, 2020 (the “Offering”).
On May 1, 2020, the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) granted the Company an exemption from the shareholder approval requirements of the TSX as set out in Section 604(e) of the Manual, on the basis of financial hardship, given that the Company is in serious financial difficult with limited alternatives and the immediacy of the Company’s need to address its financial obligations through the Offering does not afford it sufficient time to hold a special shareholders meeting. As a result, the Company became subject to a remedial delisting review by the TSX. It is routine for the TSX to require any issuer utilizing the financial hardship exemption to be the subject of such review. No assurance can be provided as to the outcome of such review and therefore, continued qualification for listing on the TSX.
NEITHER THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE NOR ITS REGULATION SERVICES PROVIDER ACCEPTS RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS RELEASE.
On Behalf of the Board of Directors
