Marketwired
Denison Mines Corp. ("Denison") (TSX:DML)(NYSE MKT:DNN)(NYSE
Amex:DNN) and JNR Resources Inc. ("JNR") announced today that they
have entered into an Amending Agreement to amend their previously
announced Acquisition Agreement, so that the acquisition of JNR
will now proceed by way of a Plan of Arrangement (the
"Arrangement") instead of a take-over bid (the "Bid").
The acquisition of JNR shares under the Arrangement will occur
on substantially the same terms as the Bid, namely JNR shareholders
will receive 0.073 of a Denison common share (the "Exchange Ratio")
in exchange for each JNR common share held on the record date of
December 12, 2012. The Arrangement will also provide for the
issuance of replacement warrants and options to holders of
outstanding warrants and options on similar terms as adjusted by
the Exchange Ratio. The completion of the Arrangement will be
subject to usual terms and conditions, including the following:
a. Approval of the Arrangement by special resolution of JNR's shareholders,
optionholders and warrantholders;
b. Court approval of the Arrangement;
c. Receipt of any required third party approvals and consents; and
d. Receipt of all required regulatory approvals, including acceptance by
the Toronto Stock Exchange.
Key provisions of the Acquisition Agreement, such as the
non-solicitation covenant on the part of JNR, the right in favour
of Denison to match any superior proposal and the termination fee
of $325,000 payable to Denison in certain circumstances including
if JNR accepts a superior proposal, have not been amended.
The Arrangement allows the transaction to be completed within
the same approximate time frame as the Bid, with closing planned
for February 1, 2013, on a more cost effective basis. Documents
relating to the Arrangement, including the information circular
required in connection with JNR's special shareholder meeting
scheduled for January 28, 2013, are to be mailed to JNR
shareholders in early January 2013.
This press release does not constitute an offer to buy or an
invitation to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy or
invitation to sell, any securities of Denison or JNR. Subject to
the terms and conditions set forth in the Acquisition Agreement, as
amended, JNR intends to file a notice of meeting, management
information circular and related materials with Canadian securities
regulatory authorities relating to the proposed transaction, and
Denison intends to file a registration statement and prospectus
with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"SEC"), including the JNR management information circular and
related materials, relating to the proposed transaction. Investors
and security holders are urged to read these documents, as well as
any amendments and supplements to these documents, when they become
available because they will contain important information. At that
time, investors and security holders may obtain a free copy of the
JNR management information circular and related documents at the
Canadian securities regulators' website at www.sedar.com and a free
copy of the registration statement and prospectus and related
documents at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. At that time, free
copies of these documents can also be obtained by directing a
request to Denison at 595 Bay Street, Suite 402, Toronto, Ontario,
Canada, M5G 2C2. YOU SHOULD READ THE MANAGEMENT INFORMATION
CIRCULAR, PROSPECTUS AND RELATED MATERIALS CAREFULLY BEFORE MAKING
A DECISION CONCERNING THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION.
