("Carlton" or the "Company")
Extension of option
Carlton announced on 14 December 2009 that it had entered into an option
agreement to acquire all of the shares in Tobon Tondo suarl ("Tobon"), a Malian
incorporated company holding highly prospective gold exploration interests in
Mali.
The option granted pursuant to the option agreement was due to expire on 31
January 2010, but Carlton is pleased to announce that it has agreed to extend
the exercise of the option agreement to 28 February 2010 to allow the Company to
finalise its due diligence process.
The Company also notes that its trading facility on AIM would ordinarily have
been suspended on 11 January 2010 pursuant to Rule 15 of the AIM Rules for
Companies. The Company has been advised that its trading facility will be
restored on the day following a general meeting at which a reverse acquisition
is approved by the Company's shareholders, and not on the posting of an
admission document regarding a reverse acquisition.
If the Company does not complete a reverse acquisition by 11 July 2010 its
listing on AIM will be cancelled in accordance with Rule 41 of the AIM Rules for
Companies.The work required to produce an admission document to achieve a
relisting of the Company would essentially mirror that required for a
readmission in the current circumstances, and in any event the Board is
confident of completing an acquisition well within the above timeframe. The
Board expects to provide shareholders with a further update in due course.
