Cynergy Transaction
Further to the announcements made on 15 August 2024 and 23 August 2024, regarding the Company and Cynergy Global Ltd ("Cynergy") having agreed to a second extension to the payment of the second US$500,000 tranche due under phase 1 of the Cynergy strategic investment plan.
The extension was to allow Caracal to deal with a due diligence query raised by Cynergy on 20 August 2024 relating to the control of the Company's indirect subsidiary, Tyacks Gold Ltd which is being resolved. This pertaining to both the board composition and the shareholding. Cynergy raised further concerns relating to the financial position and operational status of Kilimapesa Gold Pty Ltd ("Kilimapesa"), the Company's subsidiary in Kenya. These concerns have been raised by the Ministry of Mining, Blue Economy and Maritime Affairs with Kilimapesa. Kilimapesa, with the agreement of Cynergy, has written to the Ministry with a timetable and plan for the recapitalization of the project and Cynergy along with Kilimapesa are awaiting approval for the timetable and plan.
Cynergy have informed Caracal that they would like to renegotiate the terms of their investment and reach a settlement with the Company. The Company has indicated that it is prepared to entertain all reasonable counters but to date an agreeable offer has not been received. The Company remains open to further discussions.
