Block Listing Application

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- 

ECR MINERALS plc

(“ECR Minerals”, “ECR” or the “Company”)

BLOCK LISTING APPLICATION

ECR Minerals plc (LON: ECR), the gold exploration and development company focussed on Australia, announces that an application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for a block listing of securities in respect of 32,142,862 ordinary shares of £0.00001 each (the 'New Ordinary Shares') to be admitted to trading on AIM.

The New Ordinary Shares will be issued from time to time in order to satisfy certain warrants which may be exercised. It is expected that admission will become effective on 4 December 2020.

The block listings consist of 32,142,862 ordinary shares in respect of the 17 December 2018 warrants which are exercisable at any time until 21 December 2020 at a price of 1.125p per share the “December 2018 Subscription Warrants Scheme”

For the avoidance of doubt these applications are not applications to list the warrants themselves on any regulated market but merely an administrative measure to ensure that the Company does not need to make multiple applications for admission of ordinary shares to trading on each separate occasion when the existing warrants are exercised by holders. The warrants remain in uncertificated form and there are no changes to the terms and conditions of the warrants.

The Company will make six-monthly announcements of the utilisation of the Block Admission, in line with its obligations under AIM Rule 29.

When issued, the New Ordinary Shares will be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares of £0.00001 each in the capital of the Company ('Ordinary Shares').
