Limited
OLOCORP is a limited liability company
registered in Nigeria in 2013 for the main purpose of holding
shares in NSP, and currently owns 7,297,297 NSP shares. The
consummation of the transaction will bring REO’s equity in OLOCORP
from 3 million shares to 4,999,999 shares (out of 5 million total
shares outstanding) while the remaining 1 OLOCORP share will be
held in trust by one of REO’s representatives due to a legal
obligation to have two shareholders. Therefore REO will control
100% of the equity of OLOCORP as a de facto wholly-owned
subsidiary.
Details of the Transaction
According to the Agreement, REO will acquire
from the Vendors the remaining 40% equity stake in OLOCORP in

million REO Shares to be issued to the Vendors and their designated

Furthermore, forming part of the Agreement,
EOLO’s existing Convertible Loan Note of $530,000 from an earlier
agreement (“Earlier Agreement”) (see News Release
dated November 11, 2019) will be converted upon closing the
Transaction via the issuance of 8,000,000 new REO shares to EOLO’s
beneficiaries and a promissory note of $200,000. In addition,
EOLO’s last remaining cash instalment from the Earlier Agreement of
approximately US$180,000 will be converted upon closing the
Transaction into 2,500,000 additional new REO shares issued to
EOLO’s beneficiaries and a promissory note of $100,000. Lastly, as
per the provisions of the Earlier Agreement, EOLO shall be issued
an additional 660,000 new REO shares as a special bonus issue upon
the final consummation of this Transaction giving 100% ownership
and control of OLOCORP to REO & KPHL and potentially another
340,000 new REO shares as a further bonus if the transaction is
fully consummated by April 21, 2020.
Upon completion of the Transaction, REO will
have at least 575,007,377 common shares outstanding, and up to a
maximum of 575,347,377 shares if certain conditions are met. The
REO Shares issued under the Transaction are subject to a minimum
four-month hold period and restrictions on transfer under Canadian
securities law. Some other terms and conditions provide guidance
and incentives for potential follow-on transactions by mutual
agreement which will be subject to contract.
OLOCORP MD Eric OLO stated, “I
am confident that this transaction will prove to be a good
investment for myself, the Ichange Foundation which I support, and
all of REO’s stakeholders whom will benefit immensely from the
consolidation of African Clean Power Assets into a professionally
managed structure with a strong cooperation culture”
REO CEO Lewis Reford stated,
“We welcome the addition of another 3.7MW, bringing our net
operating capacity to 46.3MW, as well as assuming the full control
of our Nigerian subsidiary Olocorp Nig Ltd.”

stated, “This transaction shows our continued commitment
and drive to delivering on our Vision, Mission, Strategy and
Investment Policy as well as on creating a desirable co-investment

shares as a hedge into a balanced portfolio managed by like-minded
peers and professionals, in the spirit of cooperation which is
ancestral in Africa and across the world.”
