The Directors of Planet Gas Limited (‘the Company’) are pleased to announce that the Company has entered into an agreement with Macquarie Americas Corporation (a Macquarie Bank Limited subsidiary) for the purchase of a 3.0% Overriding Royalty Interest ('ORRI') over established oil and gas production assets in Kansas, Pennsylvania and New York State which total approximately 500,000 barrels of oil equivalent per annum. The Company's net ORRI pre-tax revenues are estimated to be US$650,000 per annum on production assets with an estimated 3% per annum decline curve.
Purchase consideration is US$4.58 million, with US$1.38 million funded from the Company's existing cash reserves and US$3.2 million by a drawdown from a 5 year US$15.0 million debt facility provided by Macquarie Bank Limited which will be repaid US$150,000 per annum plus a final payment of US$2.6 million.
The Company's existing interests in the Cooper Basin, South Australia, are fully funded by the joint venture partners providing the Company with the opportunity to acquire this royalty interest and the possibility to identify further royalty acquisition opportunities to be funded by a mixture of debt and equity.
