Written by Customer Service on . Posted in Public Companies.

CALGARY, Alberta, Nov. 21, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Crown Point Energy Inc. (“Crown Point” or the “Company”) announces that further to the Company’s news releases dated September 17, 2019 and November 15, 2019 announcing a return of capital to the Company’s shareholders of US$0.185 per share (the “Return of Capital“), the Return of Capital will be distributed to shareholders pursuant to the TSX Venture Exchange’s due bill trading policy.  Pursuant to such policy:
The record date (the “Record Date“) to determine shareholders of Crown Point entitled to the Return of Capital is December 2, 2019.
 The due bill trading period will commence on November 29, 2019 (one trading day prior to the Record Date, so that trades settling after the Record Date have due bills attached) and conclude at the close of the Distribution Payment Date (as defined below);
 The payment or distribution date (the “Distribution Payment Date“) will be December 9, 2019;
 The ex-distribution date will be December 10, 2019 (the next trading day following the Distribution Payment Date, so that trades on and after that date will not have due bills attached); and
 The due bill redemption date will be December 11, 2019 (the trading day following the ex-distribution date, when all trades with due bills attached have settled).For clarification, “due bills” will represent the Return of Capital that Crown Point’s shareholders will be entitled to receive. The due bills will be deemed to be attached to Crown Point’s common shares (“Shares“) one trading day prior to the Record Date, and will continue to be attached to Crown Point’s Shares until the end of the Distribution Payment Date. Accordingly, Crown Point’s Shares will trade on a “due bill” basis from November 29, 2019 until close of trading on December 9, 2019 (the “Due Bill Period“). This means that persons who sell their Shares during the Due Bill Period shall also sell their entitlement to the Return of Capital to the purchasers of such Shares. Crown Point’s Shares will commence trading on an ex-distribution basis (i.e. without an attached “due bill” entitlement to the distribution) from the opening of trading on December 10, 2019 (i.e. the next trading day after the Distribution Payment Date). The due bills will be redeemed on December 11, 2019 once all trades with attached due bills entered during the Due Bill Period have settled.For further information regarding the Return of Capital, including a summary of certain Canadian federal income tax considerations, see the Company’s management information circular dated September 30, 2019.About Crown Point
