![ITG World Energy Corp. Announces Closing of Private Placement](https://www.goldseiten.de/media/goldseiten-news.jpg)
In connection with the Private Placement, TVI ("TVI") (TSX:TVI) acquired 29,650,000 Common Shares and the Note at an aggregate purchase price of $2,800,000. LIM Asia Special Situations Master Fund Limited was issued 12,000,000 Common Shares for subscription proceeds of $600,000.
The principal amount of the Note (and accrued interest and certain other amounts that may become owing to TVI under the Note) may be converted into Common Shares of the Corporation, at a conversion price of $0.05 per Common Share, in certain circumstances, including: (i) if the Corporation's board of directors resolves to accept an acquisition proposal from a third party that constitutes a superior proposal for purposes of the Arrangement Agreement entered into between TVI and the Corporation on December 23, 2010; (ii) if, after conversion, the number of Common Shares of the Corporation held by TVI would be less than 19.5% of the total number of outstanding Common Shares of the Corporation; (iii) if the conversion is approved by the Corporation's shareholders; (iv) if the Common Shares of the Corporation are delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"); (v) if the Exchange provides its consent to conversion; or (vi) on December 31, 2015. Under the terms of the Note, the conversion price of the Note will be increased to $0.10 per Common Share if conversion is undertaken in the circumstances described in (ii), (iii) or (vi) above and shareholder approval of the conversion terms of the Note has not previously been obtained on a majority of the minority basis from the Corporation's shareholders, as contemplated by the policies of the Exchange.
Funds received by TG World pursuant to the Private Placement will be used by the Corporation to pay amounts owing, or that may become owing, in respect of the oil and gas assets of certain TG subsidiaries in the Philippines and Alaska and (to the extent of any balance) for other corporate purposes.
The issuance of the Common Shares and the Note under the Private Placement has been conditionally accepted by the Exchange, and consequently remains subject to the final acceptance by the Exchange pending the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the filing of certain documents with the Exchange and the payment of fees associated with the Private Placement. All securities issued under the Private Placement are subject to hold periods imposed under applicable Canadian securities laws and stock exchange rules.
