1 November 2012

 

Correction to directors' holdings and lock-up arrangements

 

Touchstone Gold Limited ("Touchstone" or "the Company") (AIM: TGL) advises of the following correction to the total number of Touchstone shares which are subject to the lock-up agreement in support of the merger with Atlantis Gold Mines Corp. as announced on 11 September 2012 ("the Lock-Up Agreement").

 

It was previously announced that the aggregate proportion of shares subject to the Lock-Up Agreement was 33.8%. This figure was misstated and should have read 31.9%.

 

For clarity, those shares subject to the Lock-Up Agreement are as follows:

Correction to directors' holdings

 

Ilyas Khan

The Company's admission document dated 7 June 2011 ("the Admission Document") stated that Ilyas Khan was, upon the admission of the shares to trading on AIM ("Admission"), beneficially interested in 28,529,876 shares, representing 27.50% of the issued share capital of the Company at Admission. Of these shares, 24,382,718 were held in the name of Pennine Capital Limited ("Pennine") and 4,147,158 in the name of ECK Partners Holdings Limited ("ECK"). Ilyas Khan remains the sole beneficial owner of Pennine and the 95% beneficial owner of ECK.

 

Although not stated in the Admission Document, at the time of Admission, 5,154,876 shares held by Pennine and ECK ("the Trustee Shares") were held on a trustee basis for the benefit of the original owners of the tenements and licenses of Touchstone's predecessor company and consultants prior to Admission, not including Ilyas Khan, and therefore were not beneficially held by Ilyas Khan. Accordingly, at Admission, Ilyas Khan had a beneficial interest in an aggregate 23,375,000 shares (comprising 23,000,000 shares held by Pennine and 375,000 shares held by ECK), representing 22.54% of the issued share capital of the Company at Admission.

 

Between 7 July 2012 and 28 September 2012, a total of 2,000,000 of the 5,154,876 Trustee Shares were sold in the market, further details of which are set out in the appendix to this announcement. Following these sales, a total of 3,154,876 Trustee Shares are held on trust by Pennine and ECK representing 1.94% of the issued share capital of the Company.

 

There having been no further changes to Ilyas Khan's interest in shares, Ilyas Khan currently therefore has a beneficial interest in the Company of 23,375,000 shares (held by Pennine and ECK) representing 14.36% of the current issued share capital of the Company, and holds no shares in his own name. Ilyas Khan has an additional indirect legal interest in the Company through the remaining Trustee Shares held on trust by Pennine and ECK. Therefore Ilyas Khan's holding in the Company, as defined in the AIM Rules for Companies, is 26,529,876 representing 16.29% of the issued share capital of the Company.

 

David Wiley

The Admission Document incorrectly stated that David Wiley was interested in 4,544,420 shares in the Company at Admission, representing 4.44% of the issued share capital of the Company at Admission, whilst his actual interest at Admission was in 1,658,714 shares, representing 1.60% of the issued share capital of the Company at Admission.

 

There having been no further changes to Mr Wiley's interests in shares, David Wiley currently therefore has an interest in the Company of 1,658,714 shares, representing 1.02% of the current issued share capital of the Company, held in his own name.

 

 

The Touchstone shares referred to above are, following the Company's continuance from the British Virgin Islands to the Province of Ontario, Canada which completed on 7 September 2012, Touchstone's common shares and the total number of shares in issue is 162,812,005 with each common share carrying the right to one vote. There are no shares held in treasury.

 

The total number of voting rights in Touchstone is 162,812,005.
