NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
MONTREAL, May 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- React Gaming Group Inc. (“React Gaming” or the “Corporation”) (TSXV: RGG, OTCQB: ITMZF) announces the appointment of Normand Bellemare to the board of directors.
Mr. Bellemare has extensive experience in the field of sales, after receiving a Bachelor's degree in Social Communication. Over the years, he has won several awards of excellence from major international companies. In 1998, he created a company, Runes Technologiques, which specializes in technological recruitment. Mr. Bellemare has also been in charge of sales at Renaps Info, a company that offers technological services.
Management Cease Trade Order
The Corporation announces that it has not met its filing deadline for its audited annual financial statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis and related CEO and CFO certificates for the financial year ended December 31, 2022 (collectively, the “Annual Financial Filings”), and that a management cease trade order (“MCTO”) has been granted by the Autorité des marches financiers (the “AMF”).
In connection with the Corporation's expectation that it would be unable to file the Annual Financial Filings on time, the Corporation applied for a MCTO under National Policy 12-203 – Management Cease Trade Orders (“NP 12-203”) as disclosed in the Corporation's news release dated May 1st, 2023. As previously announced, the Corporation was unable to file the Annual Financial Filings by the filing deadline because of a delay arising from a change in auditors.
Yesterday, the AMF granted the Corporation’s application for the MCTO. The MCTO restricts trading in securities of the Corporation by each of the directors and officers of the Corporation until the Annual Financial Filings are filed, and requires that the Annual Financial Filings be filed on or before June 30, 2023. The MCTO does not affect the ability of shareholders to trade their securities and the general investing public will continue to be able to trade in the Corporation's common shares.
While the Annual Financial Filings are pending, the Corporation will release bi-weekly default status updates in compliance with NP 12-203. During the period it remains in default of the filing requirements, the Corporation intends to adhere to the Alternative Information Guidelines, as defined in NP 12-203. The Corporation confirms that there is no other material information relating to its affairs that has not been generally disclosed.
