Regulation FD Disclosure
On September 1, 2009, Pacific Asia Petroleum, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with CAMAC Energy Holdings Limited ("CAMAC") and certain CAMAC subsidiaries, regarding the Company's intention to acquire an aggregate 60% participating interest currently held by two of CAMAC's wholly-owned subsidiaries, in the Oyo Oilfield which is covered by a production sharing contract OML120 in the Nigerian offshore (the "Asset"), for total consideration of $198.84 million payable by the Company through a combination of shares of the Company's common stock and a smaller portion of cash (the "Proposed Transaction"). This is the entire interest held by CAMAC in the Oyo Oilfield, which field is operated by Eni/Agip, who owns the balance of the participating interest. If the Proposed Transaction is consummated, CAMAC would beneficially own approximately 63% of the Company post-closing, resulting in a change of control of the Company.
The Company's entry into the Proposed Transaction is subject to the satisfactory completion of due diligence, entry into a definitive agreement with CAMAC, approval by the Company's Board of Directors and stockholders, and certain other closing conditions. In the interim, CAMAC has agreed to a four-month exclusivity period with respect to the Assets and the Company has agreed to a limited stand-still agreement which limits its ability to engage in certain material transactions, both of which will expire on December 31, 2009. More information on CAMAC is available on their website at www.camac.com.
