The Board of Directors of Dome Energy convenes an Extraordinary General Meeting to resolve the Company's loan situation in connection with the divestment of the business
Dome Energy AB (publ) (herein after “Dome” and/or “the Company”) together with the Company's major creditors have agreed on a solution for large parts of the loans raised by the Company in August 2018 and due on 15 November 2020. In response to the proposed solution, the Board of Directors has decided to convene an Extraordinary General Meeting on October 19, 2020. The notice of the Extraordinary General Meeting is published separately.
The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting approve divestment of all shares in the wholly owned subsidiaries Dome Energy, Inc., org.nr. 76-0667500, Sycamore Oil & Gas, Inc org.nr. 82-4674954 and Ginger Oil Company org.nr. 76-0040293, all registered in Texas, USA (the "Subsidiaries") to the Company's major creditors.
In August 2018, the company entered into loan agreements with some of the Company's major shareholders, including their related parties, for a total amount of approximately SEK 46 million. The loans were due on August 31, 2020 and the Company announced in connection with the agreement between the Company and the creditors for an extension of the loans until 15 November 2020.
In view of the above and the fact that the Company does not have, or will have funds to repay the loans to the creditors on the due date (15 November 2020), the Company and the creditors have now agreed on a solution for large parts of the debt that involves the sale of all shares in the Subsidiaries to most of the creditors for a preliminary amount of SEK 41,280,806 plus accrued interest.
“We are pleased to announce that we have agreed with the major creditors to divest the shares in the Subsidiaries to them, which means that the Company's liabilities will decrease significantly and I hope to announce a new exciting deal for shareholders soon.", comments Paul Morch, CEO Dome Energy.
Given that the above proposal is approved at the Meeting, the Company is without operational activities. For some time now, soundings and negotiations have been underway to open a new business in the Company, which in connection with this will change its name and direction of operations. The Board of Directors hopes to present such a deal to shareholders shortly and intends to convene an extraordinary general meeting to present the structure and to request a mandate to carry out such a deal. In connection with this, the Company will draw up an Information Memorandum describing the new business.
The Decision is subject to the provisions of Chapter 16. (2005:551) and therefore requires the assistance of shareholders with at least nine tenths of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the Meeting.
Further background and full proposal for a resolution, notice of a general meeting and proxy form will be available at the Company's offices, Dome Energy AB (publ), Johannesgränd 2, 111 30 Stockholm and on the Company's website (www.domeenergy.com) no later than two weeks before the Annual General Meeting and sent to the shareholders who request it and provide their postal address.
Shareholders present at the Annual General Meeting have the right to request information in accordance with Chapter 7. Section 32 of the Swedish Companies Act (2005:551).
