Hannan Metals (TSX.V:HAN)(OTC PINK:HANNF) has been requested by the TSX Venture Exchange to terminate its service agreement with Resource Stock Digest (RSD). The Exchange deemed the engagement, which required a US$125,000 upfront payment for a 3-month marketing campaign, as contrary to policy due to its proximity to the company's recent private placement. The Exchange concluded that Hannan was effectively paying for the marketing campaign with shares. Hannan disagrees with this interpretation but respects the decision. No payment has been made to RSD, and Hannan plans to work with the Exchange on future marketing efforts. RSD's owners, Gerardo Del Real and Nick Hodge, are long-term shareholders who recently purchased equity exceeding the contract fee.

L'Exchange ha ritenuto che l'impegno, che prevedeva un pagamento anticipato di 125.000 USD per una campagna di marketing di 3 mesi, fosse contrario alle politiche a causa della sua vicinanza all'ultima emissione privata della compagnia.

Non è stato effettuato alcun pagamento a RSD e Hannan prevede di collaborare con l'Exchange per futuri sforzi di marketing.

Hannan Metals (TSX.V:HAN)(OTC PINK:HANNF)는 Resource Stock Digest (RSD)와의 서비스 계약을 종료하라는 TSX 벤처 교환의 요청을 받았습니다. 이 거래는 3개월 마케팅 캠페인을 위한 125,000 USD의 선불 지급이 필요했으며, 회사의 최근 사모 발행과의 밀접한 관련으로 인해 정책에 위배된 것으로 간주되었습니다. 교환소는 Hannan이 마케팅 캠페인에 대해 사실상 주식으로 비용을 지불하고 있다고 결론지었습니다. Hannan은 이 해석에 동의하지 않지만, 결정을 존중합니다. RSD에 대한 지급은 이루어지지 않았으며, Hannan은 향후 마케팅 활동에 대해 교환소와 협력할 계획입니다. RSD의 소유주인 Gerardo Del Real과 Nick Hodge는 최근 계약 수수료를 초과하는 자본을 구매한 장기 주주들입니다.

Hannan Metals (TSX.V:HAN)(OTC PINK:HANNF) wurde von der TSX Venture Exchange aufgefordert, seinen Dienstleistungsvertrag mit Resource Stock Digest (RSD) zu beenden. Die Börse betrachtete das Engagement, welches eine Vorauszahlung von 125.000 USD für eine 3-monatige Marketingkampagne erforderte, als gegen die Richtlinien verstoßend, da es in zeitlicher Nähe zur jüngsten Privatplatzierung des Unternehmens stattfand. Die Börse kam zu dem Schluss, dass Hannan effektiv mit Aktien für die Marketingkampagne zahlte. Hannan stimmt dieser Interpretation nicht zu, respektiert jedoch die Entscheidung. Es wurde keine Zahlung an RSD geleistet, und Hannan plant, künftig mit der Börse an Marketingmaßnahmen zu arbeiten. Die Eigentümer von RSD, Gerardo Del Real und Nick Hodge, sind langfristige Aktionäre, die kürzlich Aktien im Wert von mehr als der Vertragsgebühr erworben haben.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 21, 2024 / Hannan Metals Limited ("Hannan" or the "Company") (TSX.V:HAN)(OTC PINK:HANNF) announces that the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") has requested the Company terminate the service agreement (the "Agreement") with Resource Stock Digest ("RSD") of Round Rock, Texas, that was previously announced by the Company on July 18, 2024.

In accordance with Policy 3.4 - Investor Relations, Promotional and Market-Making Activities ("Policy 3.4") of the Exchange, and Exchange bulletin dated April 10th 2024, the Company made a submission to the Exchange on July 19, 2024, seeking the approval of the Agreement. The Exchange, however, has deemed that the engagement of RSD, which required the upfront payment of US$125,000 for a 3-month marketing campaign is close in proximity to the closing of the Company's private placement on June 27, 2024, (the "Private Placement") and determined that the Company was paying for this marketing campaign with shares, which is contrary to Exchange policy. While the Company disagrees with this conclusion, it respects the Exchange's decision. The Company has made no payment to RSD pursuant to the Agreement and looks forward to working with the Exchange in obtaining positive outcomes of future Exchange filings in support of the Company's marketing efforts.

RSD is owned and operated by Gerardo Del Real and Nick Hodge, both of whom have participated in several of the Company's Private Placements and most recently purchased equity significantly in excess of the RSD contract fee. Both are long term shareholders and supporters of the Company.
