Guanajuato Silver Company Limited
Withdrawal from Aquis Exchange
Guanajuato Silver Company Ltd. (the "Company" or "GSilver") (TSXV:GSVR)(AQUIS:GSVR)(OTCQX:GSVRF) announces that it has submitted a request to the Aquis Stock Exchange Growth Market ("Aquis"), for its common shares ("Common Shares") be withdrawn from trading on Aquis, with such withdrawal to take effect as of market close on December 29, 2023 (the "Withdrawal").
The Company has its primary listing on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX-V"). The Aquis quotation was sought as a secondary listing to further enhance the liquidity and fundraising ability of the Company. The Aquis quotation gives UK shareholders the ability to hold Common Shares through a CREST Depositary Interest ("CDI"), allowing for full fungibility between the two markets. However, the Company no longer believes it can justify the cost of being quoted on both exchanges. The Company is headquartered in Canada and is of the opinion that its TSX-V listing provides sufficient access for investors to trade its Common Shares.
After December 29, 2023, any holders of CDIs representing Common Shares in the Company will no longer be able to trade those CDIs on Aquis in the United Kingdom, however the Company's Common Shares will continue to trade on the TSX-V in Canada and the OTCQX in the United States. Holders of CDIs should contact an independent financial adviser if they have any doubt about what action to take either before or after Withdrawal.
The Company notes that under the AQSE - Rules for Issuers, if an issuer has its shares traded on another market of equivalent regulatory standing including a qualifying market, shareholder approval at a general meeting will not be required to be sought. The Company's Common Shares are traded on the TSX-V, a qualifying market, and accordingly a circular is not being posted to shareholders as there is no need to obtain shareholder approval.
