Capital measures/Statement re. press announcements
It has very recently been brought to the
attention of the Directors of Petrocapital Resources Plc
("Petrocapital" or the "Company") that various press announcements in
Germany have been released without the knowledge or authorisation of
the full Board of the Company.The Company has a trading facility on the Xetra market in Frankfurt, where there is no official news distribution service similar to that available on PLUS.
The current Directors are now aware of announcements which were released in Germany on the following dates which purported to be official announcements of the Company:
19 April 2009 17 August 2009 16 September 2009 18 September 2009 22 September 2009 8 October 2009
These releases mainly make reference to a proposed `reverse share split´ (effectively a share capital consolidation), to changes to the Board of the Company and a potential major transaction.
The Directors wish to make clear that they were not aware of these announcements, they were released without their knowledge or authorisation and all such announcements are factually incorrect, in particular the Directors would like to stress that (i) neither Mr Alexander Holtermann nor Mr Rod W. Husband are directors of the Company nor are their appointments under consideration by the Board; and (ii) no "reverse share split" or share capital consolidation is under consideration or proposed. The Directors further highlight that there may be other further announcements in Germany purporting similar news of which the current Board are also not aware.
The Directors are seeking legal advice and undertaking an investigation regarding this matter.
The Directors confirm that all official announcements of the Company are currently and will in future always be released on PLUS and shareholders wishing to obtain current information on the Company should do so at www.plusmarketsgroup.com.
