Request for EGM and legal proceedings from Worldview
Petroceltic International plc ("Petroceltic" or the "Company") announces that it has received a further letter seeking to call an extraordinary general meeting ("EGM"), in relation to shareholder approval of certain asset disposals, from Vidacos Nominees Limited, the registered holder of 26.5% of the issued share capital of the Company, of which the beneficial owners are certain funds managed by Worldview Capital Management Ltd (Worldview). The Company is taking legal advice in relation to the letter and further announcements will be made in due course.
In addition, Petroceltic announces that it has been served with legal proceedings issued by Worldview in the High Court of Ireland. The proceedings allege that the Company has failed to undertake a review of its business and seeks direction from the Court as to the manner in which the review is undertaken. Similar proceedings were issued by Worldview in London in December 2014 and dismissed by the English High Court in May 2015, with costs awarded to Petroceltic, on the grounds that the appropriate jurisdiction was Ireland.
As with the previous English proceedings, Petroceltic believes that the latest Irish legal proceedings are totally without merit and misconceived
The Company would clearly prefer to avoid the significant costs of litigation and to ensure that management time is focused on the day to day running of the business for the benefit of all shareholders. Nonetheless, if Worldview decides to pursue the proceedings, the Company will be obliged to vigorously contest and defend them and to seek to recover from Worldview, to the maximum extent possible, all costs incurred by the Company in so doing.
