(firmenpresse) - CALGARY, ALBERTA -- (Marketwired) -- 05/15/15 -- Mart Resources, Inc. (TSX: MMT) ("Mart" or the "Company") announces that, further to its March 16, 2015 news release, it has commenced the mailing process, and filed an information circular dated May 12, 2015, forms of proxy and letter of transmittal ("Meeting Materials") on SEDAR, in respect of the upcoming annual and special meeting ("Meeting") of Mart''s shareholders and optionholders (collectively, "Securityholders").
At the Meeting, Securityholders will be asked to vote in respect of a proposed plan of arrangement pursuant to which a wholly-owned subsidiary of Midwestern Oil & Gas Company Ltd. ("Midwestern") will, subject to certain conditions, acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares ("Common Shares") of Mart for $0.80 per Common Share in cash (the "Arrangement") in accordance with the terms of an arrangement agreement dated March 15, 2015 between Mart and Midwestern (the "Arrangement Agreement"). Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, all options with an exercise price less than $0.80 will be surrendered in exchange for a cash payment equal the amount by which $0.80 exceeds the exercise price thereof and all options with an exercise price equal to or greater than $0.80 will be surrendered for no consideration.
The Meeting will be held at the Calgary Petroleum Club, 319 Fifth Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta, Canada on June 15, 2015 at 3:00 p.m. (Calgary time). The record date for voting at the Meeting has been set at May 11, 2015.
As disclosed in the Meeting Materials, Midwestern''s ability to complete the Arrangement is subject to it completing a private placement financing (the "Proposed Financing") to fund its obligations under the Arrangement. Midwestern has now provided Mart with a framework agreement that provides an indicative financing commitment from a significant industry participant. The indicative financing commitment contains conditions for a financing transaction that must be satisfied prior to the Proposed Financing being completed. There is no certainty that the conditions to the Proposed Financing will be satisfied or that the Proposed Financing will be completed.
Mart anticipates that the Arrangement will close on or about June 16, 2015, in the event that all conditions in the Arrangement Agreement are satisfied or waived on or before such date.
Further information about the Arrangement and the Meeting is set forth in the Meeting Materials which have been filed under Mart''s profile on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR) at .
