TORONTO, ONTARIO - 07 June, 2023 - Amaroq Minerals Ltd. (AIM, TSXV, NASDAQ First North: AMRQ), an independent mine development company with a substantial land package of gold and strategic mineral assets covering an area of 7,866.85 km2 in Southern Greenland, announces an update to its Nasdaq Main Market listing process in Iceland ("Admission").
On 28 March 2023, the Company announced that it was undergoing preparatory work in relation to the Admission, which will consist of a transfer of its depositary receipts from the Nasdaq First North Growth Market to the regulated Nasdaq Main Market in Iceland.
Today the Company announces that, in addition to engaging Landsbankinn hf. as project manager and advisor on the Admission, the Company has engaged Fossar Investment Bank hf. ("Fossar") to assist in introducing Amaroq to investors, organizing investor meetings, and advising and analysing the potential effects the Admission has on the liquidity and formation of the share price of the Corporation.
Fossar is a related party of Amaroq as it is a company in which Sigurbjorn Thorkelsson, Non-Executive Director, is Chairman of the Board and indirectly controls over 30% of the capital. Amaroq has agreed to pay Fossar £15,000 (CAD$ 25,000) and Amaroq will be responsible for any ancillary expenses on the planned engagement. The Engagement will end upon the completion of Admission.
The engagement with Fossar constitutes a related party transaction in accordance with AIM Rule 13. The Independent Directors, being the Amaroq Directors other than Sigurbjorn Thorkelsson, having consulted with the Company's Nominated Adviser, are confident that the terms of the engagement with the related party are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.
