The deal is subject to Garnet obtaining approval from the Austrian Minister of Labour and Economic Affairs under the Austrian Investment Control Act and notification, and if required, from the Austrian competition authorities.
The deal’s finalisation will also include deducting the amount of any interim funding provided by Garnet to Enerox before the option’s completion. Until completion of the option, Garnet will have certain limited rights to direct the affairs of EHL and Enerox.
The companies involved have also agreed to amend their existing joint venture agreement about EHL, in particular, so that Garnet shall have the right to appoint a majority of board members to EHL, given that it will now own 60% of EHL’s issued share capital.
If EHL or Enerox ever need additional funding that is not available from third parties, Garnet and VRFB-H will have to provide the funding pro rata based on their shareholding. However, if one party is unable or unwilling to participate in such funding, then the party will be appropriately diluted.
Garnet and VFRB-H have agreed that Enerox and EHL will continue engaging with Bushveld Energy Limited (BEL), which is being spun off from Bushveld Minerals Limited (BMN).
The two firms have agreed that for six months, BEL shall retain its rights of first refusal to supply electrolytes to Enerox projects subject to offering the best pricing, after which BEL will have the right to bid on any such projects.
Lastly, Enerox will support BEL in completing the installation and provide ongoing contractual support for the Bushveld Minigrid.
