Result of ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING, CONFIRMATION OF

directorate change and tOTAL vOTING rIGHTS

 

London, United Kingdom - 8 July 2024 - Landore Resources Limited (AIM: LND) ("Landore Resources" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that at the Company's Annual General Meeting ("AGM"), held earlier today, all of the proposed resolutions as set out in the formal Notice of AGM dated 14 June 2024 were duly passed by shareholders.

Accordingly, application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for admission of the Conditional New Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM ("Admission") as detailed in the Company's announcement of 12 June 2024 regarding, inter alia, the two tranche Subscription. The Conditional New Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu with the Company's existing Ordinary Shares and it is expected that Admission will become effective and dealings commence at 8.00 a.m. on or around 9 July 2024.

In addition, the Company will proceed to issue, in aggregate, 10,355,720 warrants to Novum Securities Limited and SCP Resource Finance LP, in connection with their services pursuant to the Subscription. Each warrant will afford the holder the right to acquire a new Ordinary Share at an exercise price of 2.4 pence for a period of three years from the date of Admission.

Additional Director and Management Subscription and Conversion of Certain Director's Fees

As set out in the Company's announcement of 12 June 2024 and following receipt of Shareholder approval for the requisite share capital authorities at the AGM, Helen Green, non-executive director, and Michele Tuomi, CEO of Landore Resources Canada Inc., have now subscribed £10,000 and £5,000, respectively, for, in aggregate, 625,000 new Ordinary Shares at the Subscription Price (the "Director and Management Subscription Shares").

In addition, Glenn Featherby, Executive Director, has agreed to settle £60,000 of accrued fees/salary from 1 January 2024 to 31 May 2024 by way of the issue of 2,500,000 new Ordinary Shares at the Subscription Price (the "Director Fee Shares") (the "Director Fee Settlement").

Accordingly, application has also been made to the London Stock Exchange for Admission of the Director and Management Subscription Shares and Director Fee Shares. The Director and Management Subscription Shares and Director Fee Shares will rank pari passu with the abovementioned Conditional New Ordinary Shares and the Company's existing Ordinary Shares and it is expected that Admission will become effective and dealings commence in such shares at 8.00 a.m. on or around 9 July 2024.

On Admission, Ms Green and Mr Featherby will consequently be interested in 1,080,974 and 7,476,053 Ordinary Shares respectively representing approximately 0.35 per cent. and 2.39 per cent. of the Company's enlarged issued share capital.

Related Party Transactions

The participations in the Director and Management Subscription by Helen Green, a non-executive director of the Company, and Michele Tuomi, CEO of Landore Resources Canada Inc., are deemed to constitute related party transactions under the AIM Rules for Companies. Accordingly, the independent director, being Huw Salter, having consulted with the Company's Nominated Adviser, Strand Hanson Limited, considers the terms of such participations to be fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.  

The Director Fee Settlement involving Glenn Featherby, an executive director of the Company, is also deemed to constitute a related party transaction under the AIM Rules for Companies. Accordingly, the independent director, being Huw Salter, having consulted with the Company's Nominated Adviser, Strand Hanson Limited, similarly considers the terms of such settlement to be fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned. 

Application for Admission and Total Voting Rights

As noted above, application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for admission of the Conditional New Ordinary Shares, Director and Management Subscription Shares and Director Fee Shares to trading on AIM.

 

On Admission of all such shares, expected to occur at 8.00 a.m. on or around 9 July 2024, the Company's issued share capital will consist of 312,816,612 Ordinary Shares with voting rights. Landore Resources does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. This figure of 312,816,612 may therefore be used by Shareholders in the Company following Admission as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the UK Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
