CALGARY, April 23, 2012 /CNW/ - Rocky Mountain Dealerships Inc. ("Rocky") (TSX:RME; RME.DB) is pleased to announce that at the special meeting of its debentureholders held today, holders of its 7.00% convertible unsecured subordinated debentures (the "Debentures") approved amendments to the Debentures that will permit Rocky to redeem all Debentures that remain outstanding after completion of its issuer bid (the "Issuer Bid") at a redemption price equal to the offer price under the issuer bid, being $1,200 for each $1,000 principal amount of Debentures. As such, Rocky intends to take-up and pay for all Debentures tendered to the Issuer Bid and redeem the remaining Debentures on Monday, April 30, 2012.
