NORDIC MINES AB (PUBL) Under the leadership of Chairman Fredrik Zettergren, and in consultation with the company's largest shareholder, Lau Su, the company has negotiated with Firesteel regarding the proposed Joint Venture agreement.
The renegotiation has resulted in a number of changes, including the fact that, in the event of a successful rights issue, the Company will be entitled to invest with Firesteel in Nordic Mines Market, which will change ownership interests in the Company's favor (given that the rights issue provides sufficient capital) and that the board / operating committee in any case until its Firesteel has acquired a majority stake in the Nordic Mines Market, shall consist of equally many members and that decisions shall be taken unanimously.
The renegotiation has been made on the basis of the views expressed by the circle of shareholders, and with present draft agreements, Lau Sus's comments on JV cooperation, as taken directly to Firesteel and to the Board, have been taken into account.
Against this background, the Board is of the opinion that the Firesteel option is what shareholders should primarily take into consideration, especially in view of the fact that Lau Su has not yet provided documentation with evidence that Lau Su will provide bridge financing for the Company despite previous commitments, nor any guarantee that Lau Su will subscribe for an amount of at least US $ 3 million in the rights issue.
