Morro Bay Resources Ltd. Retains CHF Investor Relations
Calgary, Alberta (FSCwire) - Morro Bay Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: MRB) (“Morro Bay“ or the “Company“) a gold and silver exploration company targeting historic mining districts in the prolific Durango Silver belt, today announced it has engaged CHF Investor Relations, (“CHF”) a highly regarded Canadian investor relations firm headquartered in Toronto, as its IR partner.
Mr. John Zang commented, "We are excited to retain CHF, as they have a long track record with the mining sector issuers, as well as many decades of capital markets experience. This will be a true value-added partnership for Morro Bay."
Effective immediately, the services agreement for investor relations and market-making is for a term of twelve months to March 23, 2016, subject to three months termination notice and may be extended for up to one year. Under the terms of the agreement, which is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, CHF will receive $7,500 on the first month and $5,000 per month thereafter in fees and reimbursement of approved expenses. CHF has been granted 300,000 options exercisable at $0.10, and 300,000 options exercisable at $0.20. The options vest quarterly over twelve months and have a five-year term. Upon termination of the services agreement, any vested options will be cancelled after 30 days, as is required for TSX Venture.
The market-making activity will be conducted using a registered broker in compliance with Policy 3.4 of the TSX Venture Exchange Corporate Finance Manual (the "Manual"), IIROC's Universal Market Integrity Rules & Policies (2010) and other relevant policies, so that trading orders in Morro Bay’s shares are made to manage share price volatility and imbalances of orders in order to improve trading liquidity on the exchange. In accordance with Policy 3.4, section 2.8 of the Manual that states in part "an Issuer may not use its own funds, or provide direct or indirect compensation to other parties to undertake a market-making function in its securities," the Company and CHF confirm that capital for the purposes of market-making has not and will not be provided from the Company's treasury.
Prior to the grant of options outlined above, CHF had no direct or indirect interest in the Company or its securities.
