Cortez Arranges Loan Financing
Vancouver, British Columbia -- Cortez Gold Corp. (TSXV:CUT) ('Cortez' or the 'Company') has arranged a loan facility with Starcore International Mines Ltd. ('Starcore') to purchase equipment required to commence operations at Cortez's Altiplano gold and silver processing plant in Matehuala, Mexico (the 'Altiplano Plant'), which is owned by the Company's Mexican subsidiary, Altiplano Goldsilver S.A. de C.V.
The loan facility in the amount of Cdn$250,000 (the 'Loan') bears interest at 10% and grants Starcore a floating charge security on the Altiplano Plant and all of the assets of Cortez, subordinated only to the existing first priority security interest and mortgage currently held by other lenders.
The loan facility and all interest due will only be payable should the shareholders of Cortez not approve the proposed amalgamation of Starcore and Cortez, whereby Starcore would acquire all of the outstanding shares of Cortez in an all-share transaction to be completed pursuant to a court approved Plan of Arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). Should the Cortez shareholders disapprove the transaction at their shareholders meeting on July 9, 2015 (the 'Meeting Date'), the Loan and all interest due shall be payable on demand by Starcore at any time after the Meeting Date.
