Blandings Capital Limited ("Blandings" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:BDC.P) is pleased to provide this update with respect to its proposed acquisition (the "Acquisition") of all the outstanding shares of AMG Bioenergy Resources Holdings Ltd. ("AMG"), a British Virgin Islands company. AMG is active in the business of bio fuel feedstock and biodiesel in the People's Republic of China and other parts of Asia. It is anticipated that the Acquisition will constitute Blandings' Qualifying Transaction pursuant to Policy 2.4 - Capital Pool Companies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"). Further to its press release dated May 28, 2009, the Company has determined not to proceed with the proposed private placement of common shares which was previously intended to close concurrently with completion of the Acquisition. The parties have now entered into an amended and restated share exchange agreement dated December 31, 2009 (the "Share Exchange Agreement") pursuant to which, among other administrative matters, the outside date for closing of the Acquisition has been extended to March 31, 2010. Pursuant to the terms of the Acquisition, Blandings will acquire from the shareholders of AMG the 15,000,000 common shares of AMG currently issued and outstanding (each having a deemed value of $0.33), and Blandings will, subject to the approval of the Exchange, issue 25,000,000 Blandings common shares in exchange for each issued AMG common share. In addition, on closing of the Acquisition, (i) US$1,000,000 owing to certain AMG debenture holders will be converted into 5,985,555 Blandings common shares based on a conversion rate of $0.18 per common share and currency exchange rates in effect on October 31, 2009, and (ii) $370,980 owing to Lee Shoong Lim, the President and Chief Executive Officer of AMG, will be converted into 2,061,000 Blandings common shares based on a conversion rate of $0.18 per common share. The common shares of Blandings to be issued in connection with the Acquisition will be subject to escrow restrictions as required under applicable securities legislation and may be subject to resale restrictions as required by the Exchange. Following the completion of the Acquisition, Blandings will have 45,296,555common shares outstanding (on an undiluted basis). Blandings also currently has outstanding director and employee share options to acquire 812,500 common shares at an exercise price of $0.10 per share (the "Blandings Options"). It is expected that the holders of the Blandings Options will retain such options subsequent to the completion of the Acquisition in accordance with the current share option plan. On a fully diluted basis, the former shareholders of AMG and current shareholders of Blandings will own approximately 72.96% and 27.04% respectively of the issued, non-diluted Blandings common shares. The completion of the Acquisition is subject to a number of conditions precedent including, but not limited to, the following: 1. the receipt of all necessary regulatory, corporate and third party approvals, including the approval of the Exchange, and compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements and conditions in connection with the Acquisition; 2. the confirmation of the representations and warranties of each party to the Share Exchange Agreement as set out in such agreement; 3. the absence of any material adverse effect on the financial and operational condition or the assets of each of the parties to the Share Exchange Agreement; 4. the delivery of standard completion documentation including, but not limited to, legal opinions legal counsels, officers' certificates and certificates of good standing; and 5. other conditions precedent customary for a transaction such as the Acquisition. The completion of the Acquisition is intended to occur on the tenth business day following the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent or such other date as is mutually agreed to by the parties, but in any event no later than March 31, 2010. If the Acquisition is not completed on or before March 31, 2010, the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement will be terminated. Each of Blandings and AMG will be responsible for the payment of its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Acquisition. It is the intention of Blandings and AMG to establish and maintain a Blandings board of directors that consists of directors with a combination of appropriate skill sets and is compliant with all regulatory and corporate governance requirements.
