VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 13, 2024 / Mawson Gold Limited ("Mawson" or the "Company") (TSX.V:MAW)(Frankfurt:MXR)(OTC PINK:MWSNF) is pleased to provide the following update on the previously announced Plan of Arrangement involving SUA Holdings Limited ("SUA"), Name Change, Consolidation and SXG Scheme of Arrangement (see news releases dated July 30, 2024, September 18, 2024, and November 7, 2024).

SUA Holdings Limited- Plan of Arrangement (the "Arrangement")

  1. The Company intends to make the previously announced Arrangement involving the distribution of 100% of the common shares of SUA (the "SUA Shares") to the Company shareholders on a pro rata basis effective at 12:01 a.m. (Vancouver time) (the "Effective Time") on Friday, January 10, 2025 (the "Effective Date"). The Company received final approval of the Arrangement from the Supreme Court of British Columbia on November 13, 2024 and shareholder approval on November 7, 2024 at Mawson's annual general and special meeting (the "Meeting"). Pursuant to the Arrangement, among other matters, the holders of common shares of the Company at the Effective Time will be entitled to receive one SUA Share for each Mawson common share (a "Mawson Share") held. As a result, on the Effective Date, Mawson shareholders will continue to hold their Mawson Shares and will also become shareholders of SUA and SUA will cease to be a subsidiary of Mawson.

Upon the Effective Time, SUA will become a reporting issuer in British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario. Management of SUA does not intend to apply to list the SUA Shares on any recognized stock exchange at this time. Management of SUA will assess all SUA's options and determine the best course of action for SUA in the event that legislative changes in Sweden result in lifting the moratorium on uranium mining. There can be no assurance as to if, or when, the SUA Shares will be listed for trading on any stock exchange. The necessary tax filings will be made such that SUA will be deemed to be a public corporation for Canadian income tax purposes and, as a result, SUA Shares will become an eligible investment for all registered accounts.

Consolidation of Common Shares and Name Change

Immediately after the Effective Time, on the Effective Date, the Company will affect a share consolidation of the Mawson Shares on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation share (a "Consolidated Share") for every 3.1694 pre-consolidation Mawson Shares (the "Consolidation"). No fractional Consolidated Shares will be issued pursuant to the Consolidation and any fractional common share that would have otherwise been issued will be rounded down to the nearest whole number, without any compensation or payment to shareholders. Concurrently with the Consolidation, Mawson will change its name (the "Name Change") to Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd. and maintain its listing on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") under a new ticker symbol "SXGC". It is anticipated that the Consolidated Shares will commence trading on the Exchange under the new name of Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd. and new ticker symbol "SXGC" at the market open on Thursday, January 16, 2025. The CUSIP number assigned to the Mawson Shares following the Name Change and Consolidation is 842685109 and ISIN CA8426851090.

Letters of Transmittal

Letters of transmittal with respect to the Arrangement and Consolidation were mailed to the Company's registered shareholders in connection with the Meeting. The letter of transmittal relates to both the Arrangement and the Consolidation.

In order to receive SUA Shares and Consolidated Shares in the new name of Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Limited, registered shareholders will be required to send their share certificates (or Direct Registration Statement) representing pre-Consolidation Mawson Shares, along with a properly executed letter of transmittal, to the Company's registrar and transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc., in accordance with the instructions provided in the letter of transmittal. Shareholders who hold their Mawson Shares through a broker, investment dealer, bank or trust company should contact that nominee or intermediary for assistance in depositing their Mawson Shares in connection with the Arrangement and Consolidation. Until surrendered, each certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented pre-Consolidation Mawson Shares will be deemed, at any time after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the certificates representing Consolidated Mawson Shares and SUA Shares that the holder thereof has the right to receive.

A copy of the letter of transmittal is be posted on the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and is also available for download on the Company's website at annual general and special meeting
