CALGARY, May 13, 2016
CALGARY, May 13, 2016 /CNW/ - ArPetrol Ltd. ("ArPetrol" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received approval from the holders of common shares of ArPetrol ("Shareholders") for the previously announced sale of substantially all of its assets (the "Transaction") to Empresa Nacional Del Petróleo, the state owned oil and gas company of Chile, and its subsidiary ENAP Sipetrol Argentina S.A. Shareholder approval of the Transaction was received at the Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders held in Calgary, Alberta on May 13, 2016 (the "Meeting"). The Transaction was approved by approximately 94% of the common shares voted at the Meeting. The Company has also received the conditional approval of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") to the Transaction and, as such, receipt of the Shareholder approval removed the last significant condition required to be met prior to the closing of the Transaction which is scheduled for May 19, 2016 ("Closing").
At the Meeting, the Shareholders also approved the voluntary liquidation and dissolution of the Company and the delisting of the common shares from the TSXV in connection with the Transaction. The Company does not currently intend to apply for delisting from the TSXV until after the first distribution, but the TSXV may on its own initiative delist the Common Shares or transfer the listing to the NEX Board. Also approved at the Meeting was the reelection of all Directors and the reappointment of Deloitte as Company auditors. Further details in respect of the Transaction and these related matters, including expectations with respect to the timing and amount of distributions to be made to Shareholders, can be found in the Company's Information Circular dated April 4, 2016 (the "Information Circular") which was mailed to Shareholders in connection with the Meeting and is available under the Company's profile on the SEDAR website at www.sedar.com.
