"Obtaining a listing on a major securities exchange is an important milestone in the growth of our Company. We are grateful for the support of our shareholders and the efforts of our experienced, talented team," said Dr. Mark Thorpe, the CEO of EGGL. "We believe this listing will enhance our visibility and liquidity, strengthen and broaden our shareholder base, and pave the way for accelerated growth as we create long-term value for shareholders, stakeholders and the environment by leading the future of a sustainable, circular economy in metals & mining." Overview of the Transaction The Transaction was completed by way of a three-cornered amalgamation (the "Amalgamation") pursuant to which EnviroGold Global amalgamated with a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding common shares of EnviroGold Global (the "EnviroGold Global Shares") in exchange for its common shares ("EGGL Shares") on the basis of one EGGL Share for each EnviroGold Global Share issued and outstanding, as a result of which EnviroGold Global became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Amalgamation also provides that all outstanding options, restricted share units and warrants to purchase EnviroGold Global Shares remain outstanding and now entitle the holders thereof to acquire equivalent securities of EGGL in lieu of EnviroGold Global on the same terms and conditions.
