PA Resources announces its intention to divest its assets and apply for delisting

In April 2015, PA Resources AB’s board of directors initiated a review of the
company’s strategic options with regards to the company’s future. The main
options being explored were: the availability of long-term financing for the
group, a corporate transaction/M&A or a sale of assets or subsidiaries. An
internal project office was set up to run the process and the necessary
documentation and materials in the form of investment memorandums, presentations
and virtual data rooms were prepared. During the process a significant number of
companies have been contacted which includes financial institutions, oil and gas
companies and other potential investors.

As the review process has reached its conclusion, the board of directors has
found no viable alternatives with regards to long-term financing or M&A, leaving
the third alternative, a sale of its assets and subsidiaries, as the company’s
remaining option. The board of directors has consequently asked the management
to pursue discussions with parties who have expressed an interest in acquiring
PA Resources’ oil and gas assets.

Following the board of directors’ decision to pursue the sale of the company’s
assets, it is the company’s intention to apply for delisting of its shares from
the Nasdaq Stockholm exchange in the coming days. The decision to delist the
company’s shares is required by the agreements signed with its major creditors
as part of the corporate reorganisation. The extra general meeting of
shareholders held on 27 October 2015 authorized the company’s board to apply for
delisting. In anticipation of the decision to delist, the company has sought the
opinion of the Swedish Securities Council. The Swedish Securities Council has
responded that, under the current circumstances, it is essential from the
perspective of good practice on the stock market that the company provides to
the shareholders clear information regarding its delisting plans and abstains
from filing for delisting until the shareholders have had reasonable time to
divest their shares if they so wish before the trading ceases. It is the
company’s intention to follow the council’s opinion. More information will be
provided once the delisting process has been initiated.
