TERRA VENTURES DECLARES DIVIDEND-IN-KIND OF 7,500,000 SHARES OF NOVUS GOLD CORP.
Terra Ventures Inc. (TSX-V:TAS, “Terra” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that its board of directors has declared a special dividend-in-kind (the “Dividend”) of the Company’s entire holding of 7,500,000 common shares (the “Novus Shares”) in Novus Gold Corp. (TSX-V:NOV, “Novus”) to its shareholders of record as at April 29, 2011 (the “Record Date”). Each holder of the Company’s common shares on the Record Date will receive that number of Novus Shares equal to the fraction of 7,500,000 divided by the total issued and outstanding common shares of the Company on the Record Date for each one of the Company’s common shares held. Shareholders will not receive fractional shares. Novus Shares received in the Dividend will be restricted from trading for a four month period until or about August 30, 2011.
The dividend will be taxable and non-residents of Canada will be subject to Canadian withholding taxes. No Novus Shares will be dividended to shareholders who are non-residents of Canada. Rather, such Novus Shares will be delivered to a trustee for sale in the open market following the dividend-in-kind and the net proceeds will be delivered to non-resident shareholders, net of any withholding taxes.
The payment date for the Dividend is on or about May 9, 2011.
