Rusoro Reports Closing of Arbitration Costs Financing
(firmenpresse) - VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 06/15/12 -- Rusoro Mining Ltd. ("Rusoro" or "the Company") (TSX VENTURE: RML) -
Rusoro is pleased to announce that on June 15, 2012 it entered into a litigation funding agreement with a subsidiary (the "Funder"), of the Calunius Litigation Risk Fund LP (the "Fund"). Calunius Capital LLP is the exclusive investment advisor to the Fund which specializes in funding commercial litigation and arbitration claims. Calunius Capital LLP is authorized and regulated by the Financial Services Authority of the United Kingdom as an investment adviser. ClaimTrading Limited acted as broker in the transaction.
Under the terms of the litigation funding agreement, the Funder has agreed to assist in the funding of Rusoro's legal costs in relation to the international arbitration proceedings against the Republic of Venezuela (the "Respondent") on a non-recourse basis.
Rusoro will continue to have complete control over the conduct of the international arbitration proceedings, insofar as the proceedings relate to the Company's claims, and continues to have the right to settle with the Respondent, discontinue proceedings, pursue the proceedings to trial and take any action Rusoro considers appropriate to enforce judgment.
Under the terms of the privileged litigation funding agreement, the Company has given certain warranties and covenants to the Funder. In consideration for the provision of arbitration financing, Rusoro has agreed to pay to the Funder a portion of any final settlement of the arbitration claim against the Respondent (the "Funder's Fee"). The Funder's Fee shall only become payable upon a final settlement of the arbitration claim and the value of the Funder's Fee is dependent upon a number of variables including the value of any settlement and the length of time taken to reach a settlement. The agreement also provides that the amount of the Funder's Fee shall not exceed the amount of the aggregate proceeds of the arbitration claim under any circumstances.
Details of the background to the Company's dispute with the Respondent can be found in the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and management discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 2011 as well as in the Company's news releases dated April 30, 2012 and March 14, 2012 which can be all found on or on the Company's website .
