"...The Company also plans to offer eligible shareholders the opportunity to subscribe for additional shares under a Share Purchase Plan (“SPP”) in the near future at the same price as the placement. The Record Date for shareholders to participate in the SPP will be 5:00pm AEST on 22 February 2011. The SPP offer will be posted to shareholders on or about 7 March 2011..." - http://www.texonpetroleum.com.au/Documents/Investor/Announce2011/tplasx110223c.pdf
 
I have done the calculations and worst case scenario, if every eligible shareholder takes up the full $15,000 worth of shares (highly unlikely) and we all get scaled back to 15% of the registry, then we'd get roughly 48% of what we want.

If not, it would require shareholder approval to get more.

DYOR, I might be wrong.
 
Please excuse my ignorance, but does that mean normal shareholders ie you and me will be entitled to SSP at 65c
 
what does that mean exactly? if i purchased shares 3-4 weeks ago is there a limit to how many i can buy from the SPP? is it based off the amount you purchased in the first place?

I've not seen the terms of the issue: has anyone else?

From reading the Texon announcement (http://www.texonpetroleum.com.au/Doc...asx110223c.pdf), to be eligible you just needed to have been on the register at the record date, which you would have been. I see no reason why the number of shares you can apply for would be restricted based on your current shareholdings. donteatme reckons the most one could get is about $7,500.
 
The terms of the SPP are not available yet. Sometimes these issues are made on a proportional basis to your holding othe times it can be for different amounts up to $15,000 worth for each shareholder. At times if the amount required is oversubscribed then each application could be scaled back. Its wait and see.

No, I would see that as the worst scenario, if everyone that is eligible subscribes for the full $15,000. Not everyone will have $15,000 floating around, so I think we would get at least 48% of what we apply for if it gets scaled back.
 
In my calculation I used 26m shares that they were gonna give out, looks like it's only gonna be ~24m. So the worst case scenario will be a bit worse that I have given it.
 
The announcement does mention 15k

15K even if scaled back would be great. That's how AUT did it's last SPP.
On the other hand EKA's offer was 1 new share for every 6s registered which disadvantages smaller holders with lesser means.
I hope TXN will go like AUT.

I don't see how giving everyone the same percentage gain is anything but fair. The $15k maximum disadvantages those who've contributed most to the company so far. It is also subject to scale-back, which is an annoying inconvenience and cost to everyone.

In the case of this TXN SPP, they have underwritten up to just under $10.5M, which is equivalent to 700 shareholders taking up their full entitlement. Above 700 of us, we don't know exactly what will happen.
 
i have to agree kemmen, the smaller holders have an advantage for sure

my preference would be for a % attributed to the shares you hold

means nothing to me in the wash, i will pin my ears back and get what i can
