GOLDSTONE RESOURCES LIMITED
("GoldStone" or the "Company")
Exercise of Warrants
GoldStone Resources Limited (AIM: GRL), the AIM quoted gold exploration and development company focused on bringing the Homase Mine within its Akrokeri-Homase Gold Project ("AKHM") into production, is pleased to announce that Asian Investment Management Services Ltd ("AIMS") has exercised, in aggregate, 50,000,000 warrants to subscribe for new ordinary shares of 1 penny each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") at a price of 3 pence per Ordinary Share (the "Warrant Exercise"). The Warrant Exercise provides £1,500,000 of additional funding to the Company.
The 50,000,000 new Ordinary Shares to be issued to AIMS will rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares and application will be made for the New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will become effective and dealings in the new Ordinary Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 8 June 2021.
On Admission, AIMS will hold 122,000,000 Ordinary Shares in the Company, representing approximately 29.91 per cent. of the Company's then issued share capital.
Total Voting Rights
Upon Admission, the Company's issued ordinary share capital will consist of 407,938,344 Ordinary Shares with one voting right each. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury, therefore the total number of Ordinary Shares and voting rights in the Company on Admission will be 407,938,344. With effect from Admission, this figure may be used by shareholders in the Company 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 FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
