RPL update
The following announcement was released today on the website of Renewable Power
& Light Plc ("RPL"). Mr Duncan Soukup is Executive Chairman of RPL and of
Thalassa Holdings Ltd, which, through direct and indirect holdings, controls
29.7% of the issued share capital in RPL.
"The Board of RPL is pleased to report that the Company hopes to recover
approximately USD$247,000 in relation to the property lease of the Company's
subsidiary, RPL Holdings, Inc. This recovery should be achieved by the recent
subletting of the RPL Holdings, Inc. office in Minnetonka to a local law firm
for the remainder of the outstanding term of the lease.
As part of the proposed sale of the Company's US subsidiaries to True North for
$1 ("the True North Transaction"), the previous Board of RPL had proposed to
transfer the cash equivalent of the outstanding liability of the lease on the
Minnetonka property, totalling US$421,000, to True North along with RPL
Holdings, Inc. As a result of successfully subletting the US office, the Board
anticipates recovering up to 60% of the amount that the previous Board had
recommended transferring to True North.
Commenting, Mr Duncan Soukup, Executive Chairman said "How the previous Board
could recommend the True North Transaction (see the announcement of 27 January
2010) to be in the best interest of shareholders, when the new Board, with the
help of the real estate company, CBRE, has negotiated significant potential
recovery in a short period of time, is galling."
"As I made clear in Thalassa Holdings Ltd's offer letter, the $1,001 offer made
by Thalassa Holdings Ltd to the previous Board of the Company on 11 February
2010 was NOT in the best interests of RPL shareholders,. Needless to say,
therefore, the $1 offer that the previous Board was recommending was not only
NOT in the best interest of shareholders of RPL, it was insulting to
shareholders and given the complete lack of disclosure and the fact that the
recommended transaction was a related party transaction, very possibly reckless,
ill advised and negligent."
