When ADL was CEB and AOGL was NCT, NCT helped set up the deal for CEB to come back as ADL. As part of that deal, NCT put $100k into CEB and the right to participate in any Indo oil & gas deals that ADL did for five years. The deal is 12.5% on a non-promoted basis ie., at the same cost as ADL.
So at the moment ADL has not done an oil & gas deal it is providing services for which it is being repaid from the extra revenue generated as a result of the services provided.
If and when ADL converts the outstanding liability into a participation interest then AOGL will have the right to participate. I don't expect ADL to make a decision before the end of September and maybe not till October. Both companies are fully aware of the Right to Participate, I have discussed it with both of them fairly recently.
