CARLAW CAPITAL III CORP. ANNOUNCES TRANSFER TO NEX
TSX Venture Exchange Symbol: CW.P
TORONTO, Oct. 15 /CNW/ - Carlaw Capital III Corp. ("Carlaw" or the "Corporation") today announced the transfer of its listing from the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") to the NEX board of the TSXV (the "NEX").
Carlaw's common shares (the "Common Shares") commenced trading on the TSXV on July 14, 2008. On March 30, 2010, Carlaw announced the proposed acquisition of OneWorld Energy Inc. ("OneWorld") as its qualifying transaction (the "Transaction"). On July 19, 2010, the TSXV suspended trading of the Common Shares as a result of the Corporation's failure to complete a qualifying transaction within 24 months of listing. The Corporation had a further 90-day period within which to complete the Transaction or obtain the necessary shareholder approval and have the TSXV review the required documentation to transfer its listing to the NEX (the "NEX Transfer").
To date, Carlaw has made progress towards completing the Transaction, but has not completed the Transaction within the allotted period. As a result, Carlaw obtained the requisite shareholder approval (exclusive of the votes of non-arm's length parties to Carlaw) for the NEX Transfer at a special meeting of its shareholders held on October 12, 2010 (the "Meeting").
In addition, at the Meeting, shareholders approved the cancellation of an aggregate of 1,750,000 seed shares of Carlaw held in escrow pursuant to the escrow agreement dated May 29, 2008 between Carlaw, Equity Financial Trust Company and certain shareholders, in accordance with the TSXV Policy 2.4.
On Tuesday, October 19, 2010, Carlaw's listing will transfer to NEX under the trading symbol CW.H, the Company's Tier classification will change from Tier 2 to NEX, and the Filing and Service Office will change from Toronto to NEX.
