A gentle reminder from May RNS13 Aug 2018 20:54
There have been a few comments of late regarding the scenario of the Major not completing the transaction. If that were the case - AND THERE HAVE BEEN NO OFFICIAL SUGGESTION THEY WON'T - we can remind ourselves of the position we were in prior to this exclusivity period.

Whilst to date the Company has been working with a number of major oil companies in conducting an evaluation of the Company's licences with a view to concluding a mutually beneficial commercial transaction, under the terms of this Agreement, the Company and the Counterparty will now work exclusively together for at least the next three months. The Company will receive a non-refundable cash payment of US$250,000 per month (US$750,000 in aggregate) for the initial three-month period of exclusivity with an additional US$250,000 per month for any extended period of exclusivity, such extension at the option of the Counterparty, up to a maximum of a further three months.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We know the initial 3 months have passed since the NDA was made. Just under the full 3 month limit we receive a note to tell us month 4 is being used ($1,000,000 in the bank) and we have around 3 weeks until another month of exclusivity may be in the offing.
Of course as time ticks by we are all coming up with scenarios due to our active minds - With the biggest of them being .... what if? Buy out, Farm In, Walk Away, Extension, Walk Away, 30p, 12p, £1 and so on.
I am sure we will have plenty of new names, some long term holders who have never posted on here before, people advising of the risks and or rewards of backing a minnow on AIM. It makes for an interesting end to the summer.
Perhaps if big Malcy does have a meeting with the company representative tomorrow or whenever we should have had some news.
Let's hope it is BIG.
