The Board of Breaker Resources NL (ASX: BRB; the Company or Breaker) has been notified by Ramelius Resources Limited (ASX: RMS) (Ramelius) that acceptance forms received in relation to the takeover Offer for Breaker announced on 20 March 2023 (the Offer), have now reached in excess of 50.1% of Breaker's issued share capital.

Subject to the terms of the Bid Implementation Agreement (BIA) released to the ASX on 20 March 2023, Ramelius has now declared the Offer unconditional and has also accelerated the payment terms for Breaker shareholders who ACCEPT the Offer to within ten business days from receipt of their acceptance forms. The Board of Breaker unanimously recommends that Breaker shareholders who have not yet accepted the Offer do so without delay to realise the benefits of becoming shareholders of the merged group which are outlined in Breaker's Target Statement released to the ASX on 11 April 2023. These benefits include becoming a shareholder of a Top 10 Australian domestic gold producer with two operating gold production hubs with an annual profitable gold output of 240,000-280,000oz per annum. Furthermore, the merged entity will look to combine the Lake Roe Gold Project with the Lake Rebecca Gold Project to establish a third gold production hub in Western Australia.

BOARD CHANGES

Subject to the terms of the BIA and Ramelius' intentions which are set out in the Bidder's Statement released to the ASX of 27 March 2023, Ramelius now hasthe right to appoint such number of nominees so as to comprise the majority of the Breaker Board. Non-Executive Chairman Peter Cook and Executive Director and CEO Sam Smith will remain on the Breaker Board to manage the interests of Breaker shareholders until Ramelius reach compulsory acquisition of the Company (which includes a 90% relevant interest in Breaker) or the Offer period expires. Ramelius will appoint three new Directors and a joint Company Secretary.

REMAINING BREAKER SHAREHOLDERS

The Board of Breaker advises that shareholders who do not accept the Offer by the closing date of 7pm EST on Monday 15 May 2023, pending any further extensions by Ramelius, risk losing influence over the direction of the Breaker business which is now controlled by Ramelius. Ramelius has advised that no decision has been made to extend the Offer at this time, and therefore there is no guarantee the Offer will extend beyond 15 May 2023. Furthermore, Ramelius' controlling position in Breaker may affect the liquidity of the minority shareholders in Breaker. This could make it difficult for minority Breaker shareholders to sell their shares at an attractive price on the ASX. It is also possible that Ramelius may look at delisting Breaker from the ASX at some point in time.
