The Intertain Group Limited: Recommencement of trading of exchangeable shares


TORONTO, Dec. 10, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Intertain Group Limited ("Intertain" or the "Company") (TSX:ITX) today announced that it has been advised by the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") that trading of the Company's Class C non-voting exchangeable shares ("Exchangeable Shares") will be permitted to re-commence effective at 9:30 a.m. (Toronto time) today.

The TSX previously halted trading of the Exchangeable Shares on December 3, 2019 as a result of the withdrawal of the Exchangeable Shares from the Canadian Depositary for Securities Limited ("CDS"). 

The Company understands that the withdrawal of the Exchangeable Shares from CDS was intended to provide adequate time for holders to deposit the documents necessary to receive ordinary shares of Gamesys Group plc in a timely manner following the previously scheduled redemption date for the Exchangeable Shares on January 13, 2020.  Following discussions with the TSX and CDS, the CUSIP number applicable to the Exchangeable Shares will be reactivated and CDS will be prepared to accept deposits and to clear and settle trades effective today.
