The vote was a yes on both sides and once the final legalities are done the Fission/Alpha merger will be complete. Here’s the latest release on the subject that went over the wire

Fission Receives Court Approval of Plan of Arrangement involving the Spin-Out of Fission 3.0 Corp.

KELOWNA, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Marketwired – Nov. 29, 2013) – FISSION URANIUM CORP. (“Fission” or the “Company“) (TSX VENTURE:FCU)(OTCQX:FCUUF)(FRANKFURT:2FU) is pleased to announce that the previously announced plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement“) pursuant to which certain assets of Fission will be spun-out to Fission 3.0 Corp. (“Fission Spinco“) has been approved by the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta. On completion of the Arrangement, each Fission shareholder will hold: (i) one new common share of the Company post-Arrangement; and (ii) one common share of Fission Spinco (a “Fission Spinco Share“).

The Arrangement is subject to final approval by the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSX-V“). Completion of the Arrangement is expected to occur on December 6, 2013 and trading of the Fission Spinco Shares is expected to commence on the TSX-V at the open of markets on December 10, 2013.

Dev Randhawa, Chairman and CEO of Fission Uranium, commented,

I would like to thank our legal team, financial advisors and management for all their hard work in making this come together. It’s been an amazing year for the PLS project and I know we are looking forward to an aggressive winter exploration program.”

As previously described in Fission’s management information circular dated October 29, 2013 (the “Circular“), the TSX-V has determined that its due bill trading procedure will be used in connection with the distribution of the Fission Spinco Shares to the Fission shareholders. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fission Spinco Shares will trade on a “due bill” basis on the TSX-V in the period from December 4, 2013 up to and including December 9, 2013, being the anticipated date on which Fission Spnico Shares will paid out to Fission shareholders (the “Due Bill Period“). Holders of Fission shares on December 6, 2013, including purchasers of Fission shares during the Due Bill Period, will be entitled to receive Fission Spinco Shares. Any trades that are executed during the Due Bill Period will be automatically flagged to ensure that such purchasers receive the entitlement to the Fission Spinco Shares. Sellers of Fission shares during the Due Bill Period will not be entitled to Fission Spinco Shares.

The Fission Spinco Shares will commence trading on the TSX-V on an “ex-distribution” basis at the open of markets on December 10, 2013, as of which date purchasers of Fission shares will no longer have an attaching right to receive Fission Spinco Shares in accordance with the Arrangement. The “due bills” will be redeemed on December 12, 2013, once all trades attached to “due bills” entered into during the Due Bill Period have settled.

The anticipated dates provided above may change for a number of reasons, including inability to secure necessary regulatory or other third party approvals that may be required to satisfy the other conditions to the completion of the Arrangement. Investors are encouraged to consult with their financial advisors regarding the specific implications of buying or selling Fission shares before, on or after the anticipated effective date of the Arrangement.

Additional information regarding the terms of the Arrangement are set out in the Circular, which is available under Fission’s profile at www.sedar.com.
