Mr. Borland is currently a director of Strait Minerals Inc. and Greencastle Resources Ltd., and has also been a director of Minefinders Corp., Acadian Mining Corp., Tempus Corp., Prelim Capital Inc. and Vistior Capital Ltd.

Upon completion of the consolidation Nikos will have a total of 9,065,081 common shares (all common shares of the company after completion of the consolidation are hereinafter referred to as "postconsolidation shares").
The company further announces its intention to complete, after completion of the consolidation, a non-brokered private placement offering of up to five million units at a price of five cents per unit, with each unit consisting of one postconsolidation share and one warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one additional postconsolidation share of the company at a price of 10 cents for a period of 24 months.
All transactions referred to in the release are subject to regulatory approval, including approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. For further details, please contact the company. All securities issued in connection with the private placement will be subject to a hold period of four months from the date of closing. The net proceeds from the private placement will be used to finance the company's continuing capital program and for general working capital purposes. |
