BLOCK LISTING APPLICATION
ECR Minerals plc (LON: ECR), the gold exploration and development company focussed on Australia, announces that an application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for a block listing of securities in respect of 128,000,000 ordinary shares of £0.00001 each (the 'New Ordinary Shares') to be admitted to trading on AIM.
The New Ordinary Shares will be issued from time to time in order to satisfy certain warrants which may be exercised. It is expected that admission will become effective on 10 August 2020.
The block listings consist of:
28,000,000 ordinary shares in respect of the 18 July 2018 warrants exercisable at 1.125 pence per share, the “30 July 2018 Subscription Warrants Scheme”;50,000,000 ordinary shares in respect of the 17 December 2018 warrants exercisable at 1.125 pence per share, the “21 December 2018 Subscription Warrants Scheme”; and50,000,000 ordinary shares in respect of the 6 April 2020 warrants exercisable at 1 pence per share, the “20 April 2020 Subscription Warrants Scheme”.For the avoidance of doubt these applications are not applications to list the warrants themselves on any regulated market but merely an administrative measure to ensure that the Company does not need to make multiple applications for admission of ordinary shares to trading on each separate occasion when the existing warrants are exercised by holders. The warrants remain in uncertificated form and there are no changes to the terms and conditions of the warrants.
Following the Block Admission, the Company's issued share capital will remain unchanged at 640,953,913 ordinary shares. The Company will make six-monthly announcements of the utilisation of the Block Admission, in line with its obligations under AIM Rule 29.
When issued, the New Ordinary Shares will be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares of £0.00001 each in the capital of the Company ('Ordinary Shares').
