Tethys Petroleum Press Release
(TSX: TPL, LSE: TPL)
Tethys Petroleum Limited to cancel listing in the United Kingdom
GRAND CAYMAN, CAYMAN ISLANDS - Tethys Petroleum Limited ("Tethys" or the
"Company") today announces that it has applied to the United Kingdom
Listing Authority ("UKLA") to cancel the standard listing of the
Company's ordinary shares (the "Shares") from the Official List of the
UKLA and the cancellation of trading in the Shares on the Main Market of
the London Stock Exchange (together, the "Cancellation"), following a
determination by the Company that the costs of maintaining a dual
listing on the London and Toronto stock exchanges is unnecessarily
expensive for a company of Tethys' size. Following the Cancellation,
the Shares will continue to trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange which
should provide shareholders with liquidity and places sufficient
corporate governance requirements upon the Company. Further, the
Company's conclusion, that the London listing be cancelled, is supported
by the limited trading and liquidity of the Shares on the London Stock
Exchange (meaning that limited benefit is brought by that listing).
Pursuant to Listing Rule 5.2.8, the Company announces that the
cancellation notice period has now commenced and cancellation is
expected to take effect at 7:00 am on Tuesday 2 May, 2017.
The Company currently has two share registers, a register maintained by
Capita Asset Services in the UK and a register maintained by TSX Trust
Company in Canada. It is the Company's intention to transfer the
shareholdings on the Capita Asset Services register to the TSX Trust
Company register following the Cancellation which should result in
further cost savings for the Company. Those shareholders affected will
be contacted about this with further details in due course.
