Statement re broker
Prospex Oil and Gas Plc, the AIM quoted investment company,
notes the announcement made today by the Financial Conduct
Authority relating to the administration of Beaufort Securities
Limited ('Beaufort') and Beaufort Asset Clearing Services Limited
('BACSL'), which requires Beaufort to cease all regulated
activity.
Accordingly, Prospex confirms that Peterhouse Corporate Finance
Limited will act as the Company's sole broker with immediate
effect.
Lapse of Warrant and Termination of Services
Beaufort was the holder of warrants to buy 8,500,000 ordinary
shares at 1.25p per share. Due to the administration under the
terms of the warrant agreement the warrants have now lapsed.
The Company is writing to the Joint Administrators of Beaufort
and BACSL giving them notice of the lapse and termination of broker
services agreement.
Commenting on the news Managing Director, Edward Dawson, said,
"We thank Beaufort for the support they have shown our company and
send our very best wishes to the team. Despite their departure from
our advisory team I would like to assure shareholders that it is
business as usual for Prospex. The oversubscribed placing in
January ensured the Company is fully funded for its basic 2018 work
programmes across the portfolio of investments and we continue to
enjoy a positive working relationship with Peterhouse.
"I am pleased to report that since the acquisition of our
interest in the Tesorrillo Project late last year, which contains a
known gas discovery, the project has been reinvigorated and
progress has been made in-country. Elsewhere, meetings with our
operational partners have gone well with regards to getting last
year's discoveries in Italy and Romania on production. We look
forward to providing shareholders with further updates on these
exciting developments in due course."
