NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE U.S.
DIVESTCO INC. (TSX VENTURE:DVT) ("Divestco" or the "Corporation"), is pleased to
announce the offering of a minimum of $3,000,000 up to a maximum of $5,000,000
in secured subordinated debentures (the "Debentures) with a royalty interest
(the "Royalty Interest"). The issue price has been set at $150,000 per unit and
a minimum subscription amount of $150,000 has been set for each subscriber
unless the Corporation agrees to a lesser amount. The Debenture is RRSP
eligible; however the Royalty Interest is not. The Debentures do not have a
maturity date except upon demand after an Event of Default, as defined in the
Indenture Agreement. The Debentures will bear interest at 8.00% per annum,
payable quarterly on the outstanding principal. Principal payments will equal
50% of the net revenues generated by the Seismic Data on or after July 1, 2012
(the "Principal Payments") with the balance of the revenue to be retained by the
Company. Net revenues will equal 90% of the gross revenues generated by the
Seismic Data as the Corporation will retain 10% of the gross revenues as a
management fee. The Seismic Data is comprised of the seismic surveys acquired by
Corporation to date. Principal Payments may be postponed if the Corporation is
in breach of any of its senior debt covenants. The Corporation intends to use
the proceeds from the Debentures to repay its existing subordinated debt.
Upon full repayment of the principal amount of the Debentures and all accrued
interest, the Royalty Interest will become effective whereby 25% of the net
revenues generated by the Seismic Data, commencing after the last Principal
Payment has been made, will be paid as a royalty indefinitely (the "Royalty
Payments") with the balance of the revenue to be retained by the Company. Net
revenues will equal 90% of the gross revenues generated by the Seismic Data as
the Corporation will retain 10% of the gross revenues as a management fee.
Royalty Payments may be postponed if the Corporation is in breach of any of its
senior debt covenants.
The principal amount of the Debentures and accrued interest, but not the Royalty
Interest, shall be secured against the Seismic Data by way of a registered
security interest pursuant to the Personal Property Security Act (Alberta) but
shall be subordinated to the Corporation's existing and future senior debt.
Finalization of the offering is subject to approval by the Corporation's senior
lender. Senior management and the Board of Directors have indicated that they
will subscribe for a minimum of $1,000,000 of the offering and up to a maximum
of $5,000,000. If the offering is oversubscribed, subscriptions from insiders
will be reduced.
A first closing will be held on or before June 30, 2012 or such other date that
the Corporation decides upon (the "Initial Closing"). Additional closings may be
held up to 30 days after the Initial Closing at the option of the Corporation.
