Shares in Cadogan Petroleum PLC (CAD.LN) rose Monday after it said it reached an agreement with ENI SpA (ENI.MI) on its exit from Westgasinvest LLC in Ukraine.

Under the terms of the agreement, Cadogan will receive $1.7 million from ENI and commit to not exercising its pre-emptive rights on ENI's transfer of its shares to Nadra Ukrayny.

Cadogan will also transfer its own 15% interest in Westgasinvest to Nadra Ukrayny. It will also transfer its shares of the company operating certain licenses to Westgasinvest.

CEO Guido Michelotti said the agreement would allow Cadogan to withdraw from its gas operations, which are uneconomic under the current 70% royalty regime.

Shares at 1014 GMT were up 4.6% at 8 pence.
