Eurogas International Inc. (CNSX:EI) ("Eurogas International" or the "Corporation") today announced its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. The Corporation's unaudited condensed interim financial statements, along with the accompanying management's discussion and analysis have been filed on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval ("SEDAR") and may be viewed by interested parties under the Corporation's profile at www.sedar.com or the Corporation's website at www.eurogasinternational.com. Eurogas International is conducting exploration and evaluation programs for oil and natural gas in the shallow Mediterranean waters offshore Tunisia, where it holds a 45% working interest in the Sfax Permit. The Corporation has entered into a joint operating agreement with Atlas Petroleum Exploration Worldwide Ltd. ("APEX"), a production sharing agreement with the Tunisian state oil company, and an exploration permit with the Tunisian government. Pursuant to these arrangements, the Corporation and APEX agreed to undertake exploration, evaluation and production operations on the Sfax Permit. APEX is the operating partner in the joint venture arrangement. DECLARATION OF FORCE MAJEURE As a result of political uncertainty and civil unrest in Tunisia, in January 2011, the Corporation announced that, together with APEX, it had declared a condition of Force Majeure with respect to the Sfax Permit and Ras El Besh development concession. The Corporation believes that the declaration of Force Majeure allowed the Corporation and APEX to suspend their activities, while the conditions resulting in the Force Majeure continued. FINANCIAL RESULTS During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Corporation incurred a net loss of $0.5 million and $1.1 million respectively, representing a loss of approximately $0.02 per share and $0.03 per share, respectively. This compares with a net loss of $0.5 million and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, representing a loss of $0.02 per share and $0.04 per share, respectively. The decrease in the net loss reflects a decrease in corporate activities as a result of the Force Majeure. COMMITMENTS On July 7, 2011, the Corporation received approval from the Tunisian government to extend the term of the Sfax Permit to December 8, 2012. The joint venture partners are committed to drilling an exploration well, with depth to a specified geological zone, during the extension period. The actual cost for an exploration well will depend on the selection of the prospect and the location within the Sfax Permit. Based on current information, the Corporation estimates that its share of the cost to meet this commitment ranges between US$6 million and US$9 million. Subsequent to June 30, 2012, the Corporation received a commitment from its parent, Dundee Corporation, to provide the necessary financial resources to the Corporation to enable it to complete its drilling obligation pursuant to the terms of the Sfax Permit, subject to certain conditions, including obtaining the consent of the Tunisian authorities as to an extension of the term of the Sfax Permit. In the event that its drilling commitment is not completed, a compensatory payment of up to US$12 million will be payable to the Tunisian government by the joint venture partners, less any amounts previously incurred by the joint venture partners in respect of the completion of the Corporation's obligations pursuant to the Sfax Permit. The Corporation continues to consider alternative financing options including farmout arrangements, possible debt or equity issuance, or the monetization of certain assets. There can be no assurance that the Corporation will be successful in any of these initiatives.
