Ekeko S.A. Unilaterally Purports to Terminate Option Agreement with AIS
08 Agosto 2023 - 7:38PM
A.I.S. Resources Limited (TSX-V: AIS, FRA: 5YHA) (the
“Company” or “AIS”) today announced that Ekeko S.A. (Ekeko)
has unilaterally declared the Exploration and Purchase Option
Agreement between AIS and Ekeko, dated June 10th, 2021 to be
terminated for alleged breach of contract by AIS. AIS rejects the
allegation of breach and rejects Ekeko’s purported termination of
the Agreement.
AIS validly exercised the option on Pocitos 1
prior to the contractual deadline of June 30th. Furthermore, Ekeko
breached the Agreement by (i) refusing in bad faith to honour the
option exercise, and (ii) failing to obtain the mandatory legal
certificates to prepare and execute the Transfer Deed for the
Pocitos 1 property, as required under the Agreement.
The Pocitos 1 property was further optioned by
AIS to Spey Resources Corp. (CSE: SPEY). As a result of this breach
by Ekeko, AIS was unable to perform its obligations under its
option agreement with Spey. Monies placed in trust by Spey with AIS
to complete the option exercise have been returned to
Spey.
Andrew Neale, President & CEO of AIS
commented, “We are at a loss to understand the actions of Ekeko. We
proceeded on a good faith basis to live up to our side of the
agreement and believe that AIS is in full compliance with the June
2021 Exploration and Option Purchase Agreement.”
As a result of the financial harm this has
caused AIS, AIS intends to aggressively pursue its legal remedies
in Argentina and takes the position that Ekeko is unable to
transfer good title to the property free from the AIS claim.
