The Piggy Back The two deals - Namcor and Canaccord - are done almost concurrently at $6.35 totaling 11.5 million new shares from treasury. Both will flood the mkt after the hold periods expired.
The deal buying their 5 percent of Namcor's doesn't make sense. Namcor has 10 percent "free" carried interest. Reco is obligated to pay 100% of all costs plus royalties and taxes. It could be construed as bribes under the Foreign Corruption Bribery Act with giving away 5 million shares plus $2 million cash. The Jount Opertaing Agreement (JOA) states:
"...Under the agreement, the two companies will jointly pursue an ongoing petroleum exploration program in the Kavango East and Kavango West regions of Namibia, with ReconAfrica covering the full costs to commerciality."
