CWV Crown Point Energy Inc

Crown Point Energy Inc. (TSX-V: CWV) (“Crown Point” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Crown Point Energia S.A., has entered into an asset sale and purchase agreement (the “Acquisition Agreement”), dated as of February 1, 2024, with PAN AMERICAN ENERGY S.L., SUCURSAL ARGENTINA (the “Seller”), an arm's length party, to acquire all of Seller’s right, title and interest in the Piedra Clavada and Koluel Kaike hydrocarbons exploitation concessions.

Acquired Assets

The Company will acquire from the Seller a 100% operating interest in Piedra Clavada and Koluel Kaike blocks located in the Santa Cruz Province, on the southern flank of Golfo San Jorge basin, approximately 200 km southwest of Comodoro Rivadavia (the “Santa Cruz Concessions”). 

This acquisition represents an excellent opportunity for the Company to acquire a 100% operated interest in already producing oil assets in Argentina and with an average daily production level of 3,500 bbl/d during the three month period ended December 31, 2023.

The Santa Cruz Concessions, comprising a total of 71,593 acres, will include Company owned extensive infrastructure in place capable of handling larger than current production volumes.

The purchase price payable by Crown Point to the Seller is US$12,000,000 cash base consideration, subject to customary closing adjustments, plus certain contingent in-kind consideration that is payable throughout a fifteen-year period following the closing date.

With respect to the in-kind consideration, Crown Point will deliver to the Seller a monthly quantity of oil produced from the Santa Cruz Concessions that may range from zero up to 600 bbl/d, subject to the oil market price so determined for each month.

Crown Point intends to fund the base cash portion of the purchase price using its existing cash resources, operating cash flows, and by completing a debt and/or equity financing prior to closing of the acquisition.

Acquisition Agreement

Completion of the acquisition is subject to, among other things, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and Provincial approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV"), and other customary closing conditions. Completion of the acquisition is not subject to approval by the Company's shareholders. The acquisition is expected to close in April 2024.   The effective date of the acquisition is January 1, 2024.

On February 1, 2024, the common shares of the Company (the "Common Shares") were halted pending review of the Acquisition Agreement pursuant to TSXV Policy 5.3 – Acquisitions and Dispositions of Non-Cash Assets ("Policy 5.3") as the matters contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement are considered to be a "Fundamental Acquisition" under Policy 5.3. Trading of the Common Shares will remain halted pending receipt by the TSXV of acceptable documentation pursuant to Policy 5.3.
