Mindoro Applies to Delist From ASX
  
 

EDMONTON, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - May 28, 2014) - Mindoro Resources Ltd. (TSX-VENTURE:MIO)(ASX:MDO)(FRANKFURT:WKN 906167) ("Mindoro", or "the Company") today advised that it has formally applied to be removed from the official list of the Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX") under listing rule 17.11. The ASX had previously provided in principle advice that removal would be granted subject to compliance with certain conditions.

The ASX conditions include the requirement to communicate to all holders of CHESS Depositary Interests ("CDIs") advising of the date of intended delisting and the method by which they may sell their securities on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV"), including the steps that must be undertaken to convert their CDIs to the underlying Mindoro shares, and steps that will be taken if they do not convert their CDIs by a nominated date. A letter setting out details of this information will be sent to CDI holders immediately upon receiving formal delisting approval from the ASX.

Following delisting from the ASX, which is expected to occur on 30 June 2014, Mindoro's shares will continue to be listed on the TSXV, where they will continue to trade during and after the delisting process.

Decision to Delist

The Company's decision to delist is based on the low volume of trading of its CDIs on the ASX compared to common shares on the TSXV. During 2013, trading on the ASX represented just 6% of Mindoro's total annual trading activity. As a result, Mindoro has determined that sustaining the administrative and compliance costs of the ASX listing, plus the higher level of regulatory compliance costs associated with two listings, are no longer justifiable and, accordingly, has sought ASX approval to delist.

Delisting Process

Following confirmation of ASX approval to delist, Mindoro will send each CDI holder a letter which will provide an overview of the delisting process as well as details of the following options which will be available to CDI holders:

• Sell their CDIs on the ASX prior to close of trading on the Suspension Date (23 June 2014);
• Convert their CDIs before the Suspension Date into underlying Mindoro shares which may be traded on the TSXV; or
• Do nothing and have their CDIs automatically converted into underlying Mindoro shares which may be traded on the TSXV. The conversion will occur in a single batch on 30 June 2014.
