VANCOUVER, Oct. 10, 2017 - WCB Resources (TSX-V:WCB) announced on 21 September 2017 that an Arrangement Agreement had been executed with Kingston Resources to merge the companies by way of a Plan of Arrangement (“Arrangement”) under British Columbia corporate law. The Companies have now completed the WCB shareholder Information Circular and WCB has obtained an interim order from the British Columbia Supreme Court (the “Interim Order”) with respect to the Arrangement. The Interim Order, among other things, authorizes WCB to call and hold an annual and special meeting of its shareholders to consider the Arrangement (the "Meeting"). In accordance with the Interim Order and as previously indicated, the Meeting will be held on 7 November 2017 with a record date of 3 October 2017.

In due course, WCB’s shareholders will receive a comprehensive Information Circular that will contain full details of the proposed Arrangement, including the basis for the WCB Board’s recommendation that WCB shareholders approve the proposed Arrangement. Mailing of the Information Circular will occur on 11 October 2017. The Information Circular will also be available on SEDAR under WCB’s profile at www.sedar.com

The current WCB Board, who hold a combined interest of 17% in WCB, have agreed to vote in favour of the Arrangement in the absence of a superior proposal. Sandfire Resources NL, a major shareholder of WCB holding 38% of the outstanding shares, plus two other large shareholders holding a combined total of 11% of outstanding shares, have each signed voting agreements in support of the Arrangement in the absence of a superior proposal. Other large shareholders holding 12% of WCB have indicated their support for the Arrangement.

Final court approval is expected, assuming receipt of the Shareholder Approval, on 9 November 2017, with the completion of the merger expected by 13 November, following which it is expected that WCB will be delisted from the TSX-V.

In addition, WCB and Kingston announce that they have executed an amendment to the Arrangement Agreement to address certain technical changes and other housekeeping items. A full copy of the amending agreement will be made available on SEDAR under WCB’s profile at www.sedar.com.

Forward‐looking statements are based on the opinions, assumptions and estimates of management considered reasonable at the date the statements are made, and are inherently subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties and other known and unknown factors that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those projected in the forward‐looking statements.

Although WCB and KSN have attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward‐looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be anticipated, estimated or intended.
