OTHER EVENTS
Item 8.01 – Other Events
On July 27, 2011, the Board of Directors unanimously approved a dividend whereby the shareholders or Portage Resources Inc. (the “Company”) will receive a dividend payable as a ten for one (10:1) forward split of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company pursuant to Section 78.215 of the Nevada Revised Statutes. Pursuant to NRS78.215 and consistent with the Company’s Articles of Incorporation there is no shareholder approval required for this action. The Record Date of the Forward Split was set as August 8, 2011 and the Effective Date and Payment Date is set as August 10, 2011. The dividend to be paid to the shareholders of record is payable upon surrender. Therefore, in order to receive the dividend shares the shareholders of record must surrender their existing shares to the transfer agent and will receive 10 new shares of the Company for each 1 share surrendered.
The effective date and the payment date is subject to FINRA approval and the Company will announce the payment date when such approval is received.
Further, as part of this approved action of the Board of Directors, the Company’s Executive Officer, Mr. Paul Luna Belfiore agreed to return a total of 230,000,000 restricted shares to treasury for cancellation prior to the record date, which would leave a total of 445,200,000 shares issued and outstanding as at the record date.
The dividend shares when issued will increase the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares to 4,452,000,000 common shares, all with par value of $0.001.
