• The Board of Directors of LUR unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement Resolution.

Latitude Uranium Inc. (“Latitude Uranium”, “LUR” or the “Company”) (CSE: LUR, OTCQB: LURAF, FRA: EI1) – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/latitude-uranium-inc/ – is pleased to announce that leading independent proxy advisory firm, Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (“ISS”) recommends that Latitude Uranium shareholders (“Shareholders”) vote “FOR” the resolution (the "Arrangement Resolution”) to approve the previously announced arrangement (the “Arrangement”) involving the Company and ATHA Energy Corp. (“ATHA”) at the upcoming Special Meeting of Shareholders (the “Meeting”) to be held on Tuesday, February 27, 2024  at 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time).

John Jentz, Chief Executive Officer of Latitude Uranium, commented, “We are pleased that ISS supports the Board’s unanimous recommendation that shareholders vote “FOR” the Arrangement Resolution. We look forward to completing the Arrangement and encourage all LUR shareholders to follow the recommendations of ISS, and LUR’s Board of Directors to vote ‘FOR’ the Arrangement Resolution.”

In its report, ISS commented, among other things, that, “The merger consideration represents an approximate 56.1 percent premium to the company’s share price on the date immediately prior to the announcement. The strategic rationale for the deal makes sense as the combined company is expected to benefit from an enhanced capital markets profile, more diverse asset base, established leadership team and combined board, all while being sufficiently financed to meet near-term exploration objectives.”
