TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 06/21/16 -- Brownstone Energy Inc. (CSE: BWN) ("Brownstone" or the "Company") today announces that it intends to file articles of amendment to consolidate the Company's issued and outstanding common shares on the basis of one (1) new common share for every ten (10) existing common shares (the "Consolidation"), and to change the name of the Company to "ThreeD Capital Inc." (the "Name Change"), all effective as of June 27, 2016. Shareholder approval of the Consolidation and Name Change was obtained at the Company's annual and special meeting of shareholders held on February 4, 2016.
In connection with the Consolidation and Name Change, the Company will send letters of transmittal to holders of its common shares for use in transmitting their share certificates to the Company's registrar and transfer agent, TMX Equity Transfer Services, in exchange for new certificates representing the Name Change and the number of post-Consolidation common shares to which such shareholder is entitled as a result of the Consolidation and Name Change. No delivery of a certificate evidencing the Name Change and Consolidation will be made to a shareholder until the shareholder has surrendered its current issued certificates.
As at June 21, 2016, it is anticipated that there will be 12,979,428 common shares of the Company issued and outstanding immediately following the Consolidation. The common shares of the Company as adjusted to give effect to the Name Change and Consolidation are expected to commence trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange effective as of June 23, 2016 under the new stock symbol "IDK".
