Business Update & Company to become an AIM Rule 15 Cash shell

 

 

The Company was notified by the Design & Development Director of its wholly owned subsidiary Inspirit Energy Limited ("Inspirit"), that he needs to devote his full time and attention to caring for a close relative with recently received life changing issues.  As a result, he will not currently be in a position to fully devote any time or work in any other capacity for Inspirit for the foreseeable future and will therefore cease to work for Inspirit.

 

The Board fully understand the employee's personal position and is considering the best way to support him during this time. This lead engineer is a key and pivotal member of the team, and the Board has concluded that him leaving his employment with Inspirit will have critical impact on the project. As such, the Company's previously announced agreements and discussion with potential commercial partners should be regarded as being on hold unless advised otherwise.  

 

The Board has completed its review and has concluded that it should now focus its energies on preserving its existing cash balances to pursue other opportunities and as such is, with immediate effect, becoming an AIM Rule 15 cash shell. In the meantime, the Company will seek to realise value from the IP developed to date if it can. As an AIM Rule 15 cash shell the Company will have six months to make an acquisition or acquisitions which constitutes a reverse takeover under AIM Rule 14. Where, within six months, an AIM Rule 15 cash shell does not complete a reverse takeover as set out in AIM Rule 15, the Exchange will suspend trading in the AIM securities pursuant to AIM Rule 40.

 

The Board will consider the next steps or opportunities for the Company and will provide an update to the members in due course.
