Heatherdale Announces Share Consolidation

VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 27, 2020 /CNW/ - Heatherdale Resources Ltd. ("Heatherdale" or the "Company") (TSXV: HTR) announces that, subject to TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") approval, effective at the opening of markets on August 31, 2020 the Company will consolidate its common shares ("Common Shares") as previously announced on the basis of 1 post-consolidation Common Share for every 5 pre-consolidation Common Shares (the "Consolidation").

As part of the Consolidation, the 74,699,254 Common Shares currently issued and outstanding will be reduced to 14,939,851 post-consolidation Common Shares. No fractional shares will be issued under the Consolidation. Following the Consolidation each fractional share that is less than one-half of one share will be cancelled and each fractional share that is at least one-half of one share will be rounded up to the nearest whole share. The exercise price and the number of Common Shares issuable under the Company's stock option plan will be proportionately adjusted upon completion of the Consolidation. The CUSIP number of the post-Consolidation Common Shares will be 42245Q307 and the new ISIN number will be CA42245Q3070. 

On the effective date of Consolidation, the Company's transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc., will send a letter of transmittal to registered shareholders providing instructions to surrender the certificates evidencing their Common Shares for replacement certificates representing the number of post-Consolidation Common Shares to which they are entitled. Until surrendered, each certificate representing pre-Consolidation Common Shares will be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of Common Shares to which the holder thereof is entitled as a result of the Consolidation. Shareholders who hold their shares in brokerage accounts or "street name" are not required to take any action to effect the exchange of their shares.

Update on Private Placement

The Company is pleased to announce that it has received conditional approval from the TSXV for the non–brokered private placement previously announced by the Company on August 6, 11, and 20, 2020 (the "Private Placement").  The Company expects to close the Private Placement on August 31, 2020 following completion of the Consolidation.
