Toronto, Canada, April 24, 2017 – KWG Resources Inc. (CSE: KWG) (FRANKFURT: KW6) (“KWG” or the “Company”) announces that on Friday, April 21, 2017 the Company held a special shareholders’ meeting, the shareholders voting in favour of two of the items tabled at the meeting, namely approval of the amendment to the stock option plan and setting the number of directors (between the minimum and maximum prescribed by the Company’s articles) at six (6). Given the extensive distribution of shares and the tight timing of mailing of meeting materials, the shareholders adjourned the meeting to allow additional votes to be received with respect to the third item tabled at meeting, namely a special resolution intended to create a new class of shares.
The special meeting of shareholders of KWG will, therefore, reconvene at 11:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on May 12, 2017 at 199 Bay Street, Suite 2200, Toronto, Ontario.
