("MENA" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: MNH) ("MENA" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received final approval from the Alberta Court of Queen's Bench on its proposed plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") involving the sale of the Company's Lagia Project and the payment of an in specie dividend of ordinary shares of SacOil Holdings Limited (JSE: SCL; AIM:SAC) ("SacOil") to be issued to MENA, all as more particularly disclosed in the Company's management information circular dated September 16, 2014.
