Highlights
TK docs..
A: We expect all the documents to be either ready to sign or very close to being ready, so there shouldn’t be any delays. Out of the following sets of documents, only one is not fully complete yet, but it has already been drafted and is in the process of being finalised:
Mining package
Construction package (covering on-site work, roads, and power)
TKGM shareholders package
Secured loan facilities package
Q: Was the certification of final plant costs triggered immediately after the Parliamentary Ratification of AFC Country Membership in mid-May as you had previously undertaken? And is TDB ratifying its approval for the enlarged facility, also as previously indicated?
A: Yes to both TDB and Lycopodium for the plant costs, as well as for the certifications for mining, community and financing charges on the enlarged facility with its updated disbursement schedule.
Q. What is the current timeline for completing certifications, and then signing, and then drawdowns for full launch?
A: July for certifications and then as fast as practically possible from there for signing, drawdowns and full launch.
Q: How much do KEFI anticipate recovering from the finance package for past costs?
A: All past costs are either to be recognised as equity contribution or reimbursed. This will be optimised at closing.
Q: How does KEFI intend to fund future work in Saudi Arabia?
A: Please note that development has not yet started. And KEFI’s commercial choices are that we either dilute, contribute or sell.
An update on the Saudi projects will be provided before the AGM, after approval by GMCO.
