Aurcana Amends Warrants Expiring June 30, 2013
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/14/13 -- Aurcana Corporation ("Aurcana" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: AUN)(OTCQX: AUNFF) announces that the Company will be amending the terms of certain outstanding common share purchase warrants (the "Warrants") which were issued as part of a private placement of units that closed in June and July of 2010. An aggregate of 293,750 Warrants are outstanding, each of which, on a pre-amendment basis, entitles the holder thereof to acquire one common share of the Company at an exercise price of $3.20 until June 30, 2013 (the "Expiry Date").
The Company intends to amend the Warrants to reduce the exercise price of the Warrants from $3.20 to $2.49 and to extend the Expiry Date of the Warrants from June 30, 2013 to June 30, 2015. In addition, the Warrants will be made subject to an acceleration provision, pursuant to which the exercise term of the Warrants will be shortened to 30 days if for a period of 10 consecutive trading days, the closing price of the Company's Common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange exceeds $3.40 per share. The Company will issue a press release notifying the holders of Warrants if the exercise term is shortened.
The TSX Venture Exchange has advised the Company that it does not object to the proposed amendments to the Warrants.
