Notice of change of Significant Shareholder
Base Resources Limited (ASX & AIM: BSE) (Base Resources) advises that it has today received notification from Bank of America Corporation that it and its related bodies corporate (Bank of America) have reduced their voting power in Base Resources by 37,492,497 ordinary shares. Base Resources understands that, for the purposes of the AIM Rules for Companies, Bank of America now holds less than 3% of the total Base Resources ordinary shares on issue and is no longer a significant shareholder.
The decrease in Bank of America’s holding for the purposes of the AIM Rules for Companies was the net result of both the borrowing and return of ordinary shares pursuant to prime brokerage agreements, and the acquisition and disposal of ordinary shares, since 15 October 2019.
