Crystallex Announces Temporary Cease Trade Order
(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 04/13/12 -- Crystallex International Corporation (OTCQB: CRYFQ) ("Crystallex" or the "Company") announced today that, consistent with its announcement of March 16, 2012, the Company did not file, by the deadline of March 30, 2012, its audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, related management's discussion and analysis, 2011 annual information form and CEO and CFO certificates related to the foregoing.
As a result of such default, the Company had applied to the Ontario Securities Commission and the securities regulatory authorities in British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland for a management cease trade order under National Policy 12-203 which would have only prohibited trading in securities of the Company by certain insiders of the Company. The Company's application was denied and, accordingly, a temporary general cease trade order has been issued. The cease trade order prohibits the trading of the Company's securities effective immediately, other than for trades made pursuant to debtor-in-possession financing as approved by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in connection with the proceedings under the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada) and trades for nominal consideration to realize tax losses (a copy of the cease trade order can be found at ).
The temporary cease trade order is scheduled to expire 15 days from the date hereof and may be extended. The Company is reviewing all options, with the goal of ultimately meeting its continuous disclosure obligations and lifting the cease trade order. The Company's shares continue to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board.
