Derek Secures Development Funding For Lak Ranch
|
| | Further to the Company's news release of August 30, 2010, the Company wishes to provide the following clarifications to the previously announced convertible debt funding agreement amendments:
- repayment of the principal debt amount of US1.0 million currently due February 1, 2011 has been extended to September 30, 2011. In consideration for this extension the terms of conversion of any or part of the principal amount are to be amended to $0.10 per unit, with each unit consisting of one share and one share purchase warrant. The share purchase warrant shall entitle the holder to purchase a further common share at a price of $0.12 per share for a term of a further year expiring September 30, 2012. The debt was previously convertible into shares at $0.10 per share,
- any interest accrued and owing at the conversion date would be a separate debt settlement, subject to regulatory approval and settlement would be at a price consistent with the then market price and the regulations of the TSX.V exchange.
and,
- the US$1.5 million funding subsequent to the initial US$1.0 million debt funding shall now be completed as a private placement. The terms of the private placement will be a unit at $0.05 per unit, each unit consisting of one common share and one share purchase warrant. Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase a further common share at a price of $0.10 per share for a period of 12 months and at a price of $0.12 per share for a subsequent 12 month period.
These amended agreements are subject to regulatory approval.
This effectively provides the Company with new capital to allow the Company to develop its LAK Ranch project by completing the installation, permitting and use of the 50 Million BTU generator. This development will permit the Company, for the first time, to adequately steam the reservoir in both the recently completed12 well program area and the original 1-P horizontal well area.
