Northcore-s New Trading Symbol NEX: NTI.H
Effective at market opening on Monday, September 30, 2013 the shares of Northcore Technologies Inc. will begin trading on the NEX exchange under the trading symbol “NTI.H” following the delisting of its shares on the TSX exchange at market closing on Friday, September 27, 2013.
About NEX
NEX listed companies are relieved of the pressure of a delisting deadline, are more visible as potential takeover targets or investment opportunities and can continue to trade within the prestigious TMX Group of stock exchanges. NEX companies are subject to the same disclosure standards as all Canadian public companies and must maintain good standing with all relevant Canadian securities commissions. In addition, surveillance standards of NEX companies remain unchanged – they continue to be overseen by the same independent service that monitors TSX Venture Exchange and Toronto Stock Exchange companies.
NEX listed companies continue to maintain a relationship within the TMX Group, smoothing the transition to active listed status on TSX Venture Exchange when and if the opportunity arises. Trading on the NEX open auction market takes place on the same fully electronic system as TSX Venture Exchange, and is governed by identical trading rules.
Proposed Bio-Diesel Intellectual Property Purchase from Cielo
The proposed Cielo transaction was initially considered a Change of Business by the TSX and is now considered to be a Reverse Takeover under the TSXV Policy 5.2 and therefore Northcore must fulfill all the filing requirements in Policy 5.2. Northcore will be required to request a trading halt which will remain until the reinstatement conditions in Policy 5.2 are satisfied. Also, Northcore will be required to meet the Initial Listing Requirements of the TSXV upon completion of the transaction. As a result, Northcore is not proceeding with the Cielo transaction at this time and intends to seek other potential transactions, which does not preclude future discussions with Cielo should it be of interest to both parties.
Chris Bulger, current Chairman of Northcore, is assuming the duties of Northcore-s CEO following the resignation of Don Allan, who is focused on his role as CEO of Cielo.
