Dixie Gold Inc. Announces Share Consolidation

VANCOUVER, Dec. 17, 2019 /CNW/ - Dixie Gold Inc. (TSX VENTURE: DG) ("Dixie Gold" or the "Corporation" or the "Issuer") announces its intention to consolidate its common shares ("Shares") on a 4-old-for-1-new share basis (the "Consolidation").

The 102,648,746 Shares currently issued and outstanding will be reduced to approximately 25,662,187 post-Consolidation Shares.

Under the Consolidation, no fractional shares will be issued. After the Consolidation, each fractional share that is less than one-half of a share will be cancelled and each fractional share that is at least one-half of a share will be rounded up to the nearest whole share.

The exercise price and the number of Shares issuable under any of the Corporation's outstanding stock options and warrants, as applicable, will be proportionately adjusted upon completion of the Consolidation.

A letter of transmittal will be sent to registered shareholders providing instructions to surrender the certificates evidencing their Shares for replacement certificates representing the number of post-consolidation Shares to which they are entitled as a result of the Consolidation. Until surrendered, each certificate representing Shares prior to the Consolidation will be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of Shares to which the holder thereof is entitled as a result of the Consolidation.

The Board of Directors of the Corporation believes that the Consolidation is necessary to better position Dixie Gold for future corporate development opportunities and financing transactions. There will be no name change in conjunction with the Consolidation.

The Consolidation is subject to the acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"). Following acceptance by the Exchange, the post-Consolidation Shares will continue to be traded on the Exchange under the current trading symbol "DG", but the CUSIP and ISIN numbers of the post-Consolidation Shares will change upon the completion of the Consolidation.
