Interesting which means Mayan also...
STUDIO CITY, Calif., May 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Petroteq Energy Inc. (the �Company�) (TSXV:PQE) (OTC:PQEFF) (Frankfurt:PQCF), a company focused on the development and implementation of proprietary technologies for the energy industry, announces the irrevocable subscription and closing by Deloro Energy, LLC (�Deloro�) for 6,000,000 units (the �Units�) of the Company for gross proceeds of US$3,600,000. Concurrent with closing the Company, Deloro and Petroteq Energy CA, Inc. (the �Subsidiary�), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a termination and release agreement whereby the parties agreed to (i) the termination of the memorandum of understanding (the �MOU�) between Deloro and the Subsidiary, previously announced by the Company on November 23, 2017, and (ii) the US$2.5 million advanced by Deloro under the MOU, previously announced by the Company on February 5, 2018, being attributed towards Deloro�s subscription. Due to the stable rise in oil prices and the Company�s ability to finance the development and launch of its anticipated 1,000 barrel plant without the funds to be provided by Deloro as per the MOU, the Company felt that it was in the best interest of its shareholders to rescind the MOU, which entitled Deloro to convert the funds provided by Deloro into 51% of the Subsidiary. Therefore the Company successfully negotiated the termination of the MOU and a commitment for additional funds from Deloro to be provided to the Company in the form of an equity investment.
Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company and one common share purchase warrant, with each warrant entitling Deloro to acquire one common share of the Company at an exercise price of US$0.91 per share until May 22, 2021. The subscription is subject to final approval from the TSX Venture Exchange (the �Exchange�). All of the securities issued are subject to a four month hold period from the date of issuance. The net proceeds will be used by the Company for use on its extraction technology in Asphalt Ridge, Utah, and for working capital.
Pursuant to Deloro�s subscription, and subject to the approval of the Exchange, the Company has granted Deloro the right and option to subscribe for up to an additional 4,000,000 Units at a deemed price of US$0.60 per Unit until June 13, 2018.
In addition, the Company has agreed to issue 100,000 common shares of the Company to Mr. Frank C. Ingriselli, a member of the Company's Advisory Board, as announced by the Company on May 21, 2018. The common shares will vest in three instalments between May 28, 2018 and September 30, 2018.
