President Energy PLC
06 February 2014
President is pleased to announce that a total of 87,628,500 new ordinary shares (the "Placing Shares") have been placed in the Placing, with new and existing institutional investors at a price of 35 pence per Placing Share (the "Issue Price"), raising gross proceeds of US$50 million (£30.7 million). When issued, the Placing Shares will represent approximately 28.6% of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company prior to the Placing. RBC Capital Markets (a trading name of RBC Europe Limited) ("RBC Capital Markets") and Canaccord Genuity Limited ("Canaccord Genuity") (together the "Joint Bookrunners") acted as joint bookrunners to the Company in respect of the Placing.
The participation in the Placing by the International Finance Corporation and Schroders Investment Management Limited represent related party transactions under the AIM Rules. Accordingly, the independent Directors, consider, having also consulted with RBC in its capacity as the Company's nominated adviser, that the terms of such parties' participation in the Placing are fair and reasonable insofar as independent Shareholders are concerned.
