Disclosure of rights to shares in North Energy ASA
Reference is made to the stock exchange notice of 14
February 2014, where it was announced that EMGS had
subscribed for 5,000,000 shares in North Energy ASA
(North) in the private placement resolved by North's
extraordinary general meeting held 13 February 2014
(the Private Placement). As stated in said notice,
EMGS will, when the new capital is registered and
these shares are issued, hold 5,000,000 shares in
North, equaling 4.46% of the shares and votes in
North.
In addition to the Private Placement, the
extraordinary general meeting held 13 February 2014
in North resolved the issuance of a NOK 75,000,000
convertible loan to EMGS as lender. As previously
announced, the convertible loan has a strike price of
NOK 4.15, coupon of 6% and a maturity of 6 months.
The right to convert the convertible loan to shares
in North can be exercised up to three times in the
conversion period from and including the date falling
four months after the settlement date to, but not
including, the date falling six months after the
settlement date. The settlement date is 19 February
With a conversion price at NOK 4.15 and convertible
outstanding loan amount of NOK 75,000,000, if fully
converted EMGS would be entitled to 18,072,289 shares
in North, which equals 16.1% of the 112,063,448
shares and votes in North after the Private Placement.
In the event of issuance of new shares or
subscription rights in North, EMGS will pursuant to
the terms of the convertible loan have shareholder
rights including preferential subscription rights
pursuant to §§ 10-4 and 11-4 of the Public Limited
Liability Companies Act, which may be applied
proportional to an equity interest of NOK 18,072,289,
or such adjusted equity interest that follows as a
consequence of adjusting the conversion price.
EMGS will, upon conversion, follow the regulation for
notifying ownership by issuing stock exchange notices
according to applicable regulations.
