Oriole Resources PLC
('Oriole Resources' or the 'Company')
Extension of Warrant Expiry Date
Oriole Resources PLC (AIM: ORR), the AIM quoted gold exploration company
focused on West and Central Africa, announces the extension of the term to
expiry of 152,777,778 of the remaining warrants over the same number of
ordinary shares in the Company (the 'Warrants'), such Warrants being issued to
participants in the June 2022 equity financing as announced on 29 June 2022.
The Warrants, exercisable at 0.25 pence per share, were due to expire on 13
July 2025. The Board has granted an extension of the life of the Warrants to
13 January 2026 at the same price of 0.25p per share and has sought and been
given approval for this extension, as required, by more than 75% of the
Warrant holders. No other conditions relating to the Warrants have been
amended.
Two of the Company's Directors, Eileen Carr and Robert Smeeton, respectively
hold 1,611,111 and 3,166,666 warrants that are potentially impacted by this
change in the Warrant terms. Both Directors recused themselves from voting on
the change in terms, and have agreed that their own warrant holdings shall
lapse on 13 July 2025.
The Warrants are also subject to an accelerator provision, such that if at any
time during the duration of the Warrants the 10 day volume weighted average
price of Oriole ordinary shares exceeds 0.60 pence per share, the Company may
give Warrant holders notice to exercise their Warrants within 10 business days
following the Company's notice and to pay the exercise price in full within 15
business days following the Company's notice, failing which the Warrants will
automatically expire.
