Unmarketable Parcel Sale Facility (Amended)
ASX ANNOUNCEMENT
11 June 2018
Australian Securities Exchange Code: RND
Board of Directors:
Mr Otakar Demis Chairman and Joint Company Secretary
Mr Anton Billis Managing Director
Mr Gordon Sklenka Non-Executive Director
Mr Roland Berzins Joint Company Secretary
Rand Mining Limited (ACN 004 669 658) ( RND or Company ) is pleased to announce that it has instituted the sale of ordinary shares for holders of unmarketable parcels of the Company’s shares.
The ASX Listing Rules define an unmarketable parcel as those with a market value of less than A$500. As at 5.00pm (WST) on 7 June 2018 ( Record Date ), an unmarketable parcel of shares is any shareholding of 181 shares or less, based on the Company’s closing share price of $2.81 on the Record Date. This represents 8,112 shares, held by 80 shareholders ( Minority Members ).
The Company is offering this sale to assist holders of unmarketable parcels to sell their shares without having to use a broker or pay brokerage. The Company will pay for all the costs of the sale for shareholders who use this facility, excluding tax consequences from the sale which remain the shareholder’s responsibility.
The Company values all of its shareholders; however, it incurs significant administration costs maintaining such a large number of unmarketable parcels. By facilitating this sale, the Company expects to reduce the administrative costs associated with maintaining a large number of very small holdings.
If Minority Members wish to sell their shares through this facility, they do not have to take any action.
If Minority Members do not wish to sell their shares through this facility, they must complete and return a Notice of Retention Form to the Company’s share registry, Advanced Share Registry by 5.00pm (WST) on 26 July 2018.
Upon the sale of the unmarketable parcel shares, proceeds shall be forwarded to Minority Members as soon as possible.
Attached to this announcement is a copy of the letter and the Notice of Retention that is currently being mailed to shareholders that held an unmarketable parcel in the Company on the Record Date.
If you have any queries, please contact the Company on (08) 9474 2113 or your professional advisers.
