Golden Cycle shareholders to vote June 30 on amended merger agreement with AngloGold Ashanti
By Lisa Kerner
Charlotte, N.C., May 29 - Golden Cycle Gold Corp. said its shareholders will vote on the company's amended merger agreement with AngloGold Ashanti Ltd. at a special meeting on June 30 at noon ET.
In January, it was reported that Golden Cycle agreed to be acquired by AngloGold for some $149 million, or about $14.38 per share.
The companies said the amended merger increases the number of AngloGold American Depositary Shares received per share of Golden Cycle common stock to 0.3123 from 0.29.
A cashless exercise for the options to purchase Golden Cycle common stock replaces the conversion of options to acquire Golden Cycle shares with options to acquire AngloGold ADSs, a Golden Cycle news release stated.
In addition, the unpaid costs and expenses to Golden Cycle as a condition to the merger's close are increased to $275,000 from $200,000.
Golden Cycle is a Colorado Springs, Colo., mining company.
AngloGold is a gold producer based in Johannesburg, South Africa.
