Petrodorado Energy Announces Receipt of the Exchange Conditional Approval for the Reverse Takeover Acquisition of Western Atlas Resources

05.02.2018  |  FSCwire
Vancouver and Calgary - Petrodorado Energy Ltd. (“Petrodorado” or the “Company”) (TSXV: PDQ), is pleased to announce that TSX Venture Exchange Inc. (the “Exchange”), has confirmed that the Company’s proposed Reverse Takeover Transaction (the “RTO”) with Western Atlas Resources Inc. (“WAR” or “Western Atlas”) has been conditionally approved by the Executive Listing Committee of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”). Final acceptance of the RTO and the listing of the common shares in the capital of the Resulting Issuer is conditional upon completion of all remaining filing requirements under sections 5.1 to 5.3 of Exchange Policy 5.2, as well as Exchange Policy 5.8 (Name change), which includes evidence of the receipt of approval from the shareholders of the Company to the RTO.


Principal Escrow Agreement:

Pursuant to Exchange Policy 5.4, over 26 million common shares in the capital of the Resulting Issuer which will be held by principals upon closing will be subject to Tier 2 Value escrow provisions and will be released in installments over a 3-year period.


About the RTO:

After giving effect to the RTO, it is expected that former WAR shareholders will hold approximately 65% of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of the Resulting Issuer (“Resulting Issuer Shares”) or approximately 58.6% on a partially diluted basis (assuming conversion of Petrodorado warrants issued in its most recent financing with a strike price of CDN$0.15 and exercise of Petrodorado options having an exercise price below CDN$0.15).

A special meeting of the holders of Petrodorado Shares (the “Shareholder Meeting”) is expected to be held on or about March 7, 2018 to approve the RTO and related matters. Directors and officers of Petrodorado and holders of 5% or more of the class B common shares in the capital of Petrodorado (“Petrodorado Shares”), collectively holding an aggregate of 8,397,548 Petrodorado Shares (being 36.1% of the issued and outstanding Petrodorado Shares), have entered into support agreements with WAR pursuant to which they have agreed to vote in favour of the various transactions contemplated by the amalgamation agreement executed amongst Petrodorado, WAR and a wholly owned subsidiary of Petrodorado (the “Amalgamation Agreement”). These holders have also agreed not to sell 1/3 of their Resulting Issuer Shares for a period of 6 months from the closing of the RTO, and not to sell a further 1/3 of their Resulting Issuer Shares until 12 months from the closing date of the RTO.

Additional information concerning the Shareholder Meeting and the RTO will be included in the management information circular to be delivered to holders of Petrodorado Shares setting forth the business to be conducted at the Shareholder Meeting. The management information circular is expected to be mailed to the Petrodorado shareholders later this week. Further details regarding the Shareholder Meeting will be provided in a subsequent news release.

General Development of the Business

WAR’s Meadowbank and Committee Bay properties include approximately 170,000 hectares of highly prospective and strategically located mining claims. In the Meadowbank area, WAR’s properties are along trend with Agnico Eagle’s Meadowbank gold mine, Amaruq’s gold deposit, and Aura Silver’s Greyhound deposit. In the Committee Bay area, WAR’s properties are along trend with Auryn Resource’s Three Bluffs deposit. Please see below for maps of WAR’s properties. WAR’s properties benefit from existing local infrastructure and labour market. In the Meadowbank area, Baker Lake provides summer shipping access via Hudson Bay and year-round airport facilities. Agnico Eagle maintains a 1,100m gravel airstrip and 110km all-weather road, which passes through certain of WAR’s claims, from Baker Lake to Agnico’s mine site. In the Committee Bay area, Baker Lake and Rankin Inlet are hubs for mining activities in the region, and WAR looks forward to both accessing and enhancing labour and employment opportunities in these districts.

Goldcorp and Agnico Eagle have heavily invested in the junior exploration companies operating in the area. In January 2017, Goldcorp invested over C$40M in Auryn Resources while Aura Silver’s Greyhound project is optioned to Agnico Eagle.
