The Directors can confirm they have now received an indicative (non-binding) agreement to the potential buyback from the relevant overseas shareholder. Further updates will be provided if a binding agreement is executed, although the Directors have every confidence it will be executed shortly. If the Potential Buyback completes it is the Directors' intention that the acquired Ordinary Shares would then be cancelled. The Directors believe that the ability to buy back a specific targeted shareholding in this manner will be beneficial to shareholders as a whole since by executing such a transaction, the Company should be able to ensure that the shares are disposed of in an orderly manner so as to avoid a considerable volume of shares being sold in the market far in excess of normal daily volumes of trades.
The Directors anticipate applying approximately £2,000,000 of the Fundraise to the Potential Licence Acquisition Process and the Potential Buyback. In the event that no new licence areas are identified and/or the Potential Buyback does not progress, all associated funds will be applied for general working capital purposes and to progress work on the Company's Botswana licences. Lets see what the licences are.
