Conditional Convertible Loan Facility
Edenville Energy plc (AIM: EDL), the company developing a coal project in southwest Tanzania, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Conditional Convertible Funding Agreement (the "Convertible Agreement") with an entity managed by the Lind Partners, LLC ("Lind") to make up to US$2,750,000 available to the Company for working capital and expansion purposes.
The Convertible Agreement splits the potential funds to be received by the Company into two amounts: an initial US$750,000 loan (the "Initial Loan") that is to be provided immediately; and a further loan of up to US$2,000,000 that may be drawn with mutual agreement between the Company and Lind (the "Further Loan").
The net proceeds of the US$750,000 Initial Loan will be used by the Company for:
-- the purchase of a second loader to load the pre-screen plant and coal delivery trucks;
-- the purchase of a second excavator to open up the new mining area to the north of the current excavations;
-- the provision of further on-site trucks;
-- site lighting to allow 24 hour per day operation;
-- an additional spares package for the site plant and equipment to reduce any delays in production; and
-- for general working capital purposes as the Company fulfils existing and new coal purchase orders.
Convertible Agreement Summary
-- The maximum funds available to the Company under the Convertible Agreement will be US$2,750,000;
-- The Initial Loan amount of US$750,000 is expected to be received by the Company in mid-November and any further drawdowns on the Further Loan will require mutual agreement;
