Share Consolidation
Maverix shareholders also voted in favour of the proposed two
(2) for one (1) consolidation of the Company's common shares (the
"Consolidation"), with 191,908,240 (99.85%) total votes cast
"FOR" the resolution. The Consolidation would allow Maverix to meet
the minimum share price requirements to pursue a dual listing on a
U.S. stock exchange and will only be completed if the Company
obtains all of the necessary approval for a U.S. listing. The
Company currently has 215,896,666 issued and outstanding common
shares. If completed, the Consolidation would reduce the issued and
outstanding common shares to approximately 107,948,333 common
shares. The exercise or conversion price of all outstanding stock
options and warrants would be proportionately adjusted based on the
consolidation ratio. Maverix intends to issue a detailed press
release to provide a further update on the Consolidation.
