("Connemara" or the "Company")

 

Fundraising and Issue of Equity

The net proceeds of the Transaction will fund further work on the Company's portfolio of exploration projects in Ireland and pay on-going corporate costs.

 

As part of the Transaction the Company's directors Dr John Teeling and Mr James Finn, have each agreed that a proportion of accrued unpaid fees owed to them by Connemara will be settled via the issue of New Shares at the Issue Price. The directors' holdings following the Transaction are set out below:

The independent director of the Company Mr Edward Vivion Byrne, having consulted with the Company's nominated adviser, Westhouse Securities Limited, considers that the terms of the transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.

 

Application to AIM and Total Voting Rights

 

Application has been made for the New Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and it is expected that admission of the New Shares will take place at 8.00 a.m. on 25 April 2013 ("Admission").
