Tim Eggar, Chairman of the Company, commented, "We are delighted with the results of the Extraordinary General Meeting, which is the result of the second EGM requisition notice we have had to deal with in 6 months. Both EGM requisitions had similar objectives and we have had to incur considerable expense, both in terms of Board and management time and in terms of advisers' costs, to respond to them in the appropriate fashion.
We believe the results of the Extraordinary General Meeting clearly demonstrate that the majority of our shareholders, representing in excess of 56% of votes cast, continue to support the Board's belief in the significant potential of our Polish Baltic Basin concessions. We confirm that we are proceeding with our previously announced work programme, as agreed with ConocoPhillips, and we look forward to seeing the results in due course."
