TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Nov. 14, 2014) -

NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES

Delrand Resources Limited (Delrand) (TSX:DRN)(JSE:DRN) is pleased to announce that the Toronto Stock Exchange (the TSX) has conditionally approved the listing of Delrand shares issuable in connection with the proposed Transactions (as defined below). Listing is subject to Delrand fulfilling all of the requirements of the TSX on or before February 3, 2015.

The Transactions

As previously announced on September 15, 2014, Delrand entered into a share exchange agreement pursuant to which Delrand agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of VoiceTrust Holding Inc. (VoiceTrust), a privately-held global provider of voice biometrics solutions based in Toronto, from VoiceTrust Holding B.V. for aggregate consideration of CDN$27 million to be paid by the issuance of up to 36,565,839 common shares in the capital of Delrand, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances (the Acquisition).

Concurrently with and as a condition to the closing of the Acquisition, Delrand has agreed to complete a private placement to raise minimum gross proceeds of CDN$15 million (the Private Placement and, together with the Acquisition, the Transactions). The Private Placement will be effected by way of an offering of subscription receipts by Delrand, VoiceTrust or such other entity as may be agreed upon, at a price of not less than $0.65 per subscription receipt. Holders of subscription receipts will automatically receive, upon the satisfaction of certain customary escrow release conditions (including the conditions to the closing of the Acquisition having been satisfied or waived), one Delrand common share for each subscription receipt held. The Private Placement is anticipated to be completed on a best efforts basis to qualified investors.

Upon the closing of the Transactions, it is anticipated that VoiceTrust Holding B.V. will own or control 45% of all then outstanding Delrand common shares on a fully-diluted basis, after giving effect to the Private Placement and any other issuances of Delrand common shares on or before Closing.

The Meeting

Delrand also announced that the date of its annual and special meeting of shareholders (the Meeting), originally scheduled to be held on November 27, 2014, has been changed to December 8, 2014. A management information circular in connection with the Meeting (the Circular) has been mailed to Delrand's shareholders of record as at October 27, 2014. A copy of the Circular and related Meeting materials is also available under Delrand's profile at www.sedar.com.

Addendum

Subsequent to the issuance of the Circular, Delrand has provided an update to the pro forma financial statements included in the Circular. Delrand has prepared an addendum to the Circular (the Addendum) containing the updated pro forma financial statements and related pro forma financial information disclosure which is intended to replace the pro forma financial statements and related disclosure included in the Circular. The Addendum will be mailed to Delrand's shareholders of record as at October 27, 2014.

The reason for the revised pro forma financial statements is to present the Acquisition as a "reverse acquisition" as opposed to a "business combination" for accounting purposes, which better reflects how the Acquisition will be presented in the resulting issuer's financial statements. The main impact is the treatment of approximately CDN$27.5 million of goodwill which was included in the business combination accounting presentation, but excluded in the reverse acquisition accounting presentation. For more information, please refer to the Addendum which will also be available under Delrand's profile at www.sedar.com.
