AdRabbit Limited Provides Update Regarding Board and Audit Committee Composition and Status of Resumption of Trading



AdRabbit Limited

Vancouver, British Columbia – TheNewswire - March 3, 2023 - AdRabbit Limited (TSXV:RABI) (the "Company") announces that, further to its press release dated February 27, 2023, the TSX Venture Exchange ("Exchange") has today issued a bulletin for the resumption of trading of the ordinary shares of the Company. The ordinary shares of the Company will resume trading on the Exchange on Tuesday, March 7, 2023.

 

In addition, the Exchange has requested that the Company provide further clarification regarding its board and audit committee composition. In connection with the previously announced board resignations and replacements, the current board and audit committee composition (as a result of the vacancies created thereby) does not meet the independence requirements of sections 5.1 and 21(b) of Exchange Policy 3.1 – Directors, Officers, Other Insiders & Personnel and Corporate Governance. As previously announced, the Company is searching for additional directors to be appointed to the board to ensure compliance with the Exchange's independence requirements and to satisfy Australian residency requirements under Australian corporate law.

 

The Company currently plans to fulfill the Exchange requirements with respect to the board and audit committee composition by the Company's next annual general meeting of shareholders, which is proposed to be held on or around May 31, 2023. Until such time, the Company is relying on an exemption under section 6.1.1(4) of MI 52-110 with respect to the composition of its audit committee, which provides that the board may fill a vacancy in the audit committee with a director who is otherwise not independent (by virtue of being an executive officer) until the later of the Company's next annual meeting or 6 months from the date of the vacancy.

NEITHER THE TSX VENTURE EXCHANGE INC. NOR ITS REGULATION SERVICES PROVIDER (AS THAT TERM IS DEFINED IN THE POLICIES OF THE EXCHANGE) ACCEPTS RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS RELEASE.
