Section 7—Regulation FD
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
July 23, 2007 – Guernsey, Channel Islands — CanArgo Energy Corporation (OSE: CNR, AMEX:CNR) (“CanArgo” or the “Corporation”) today announced that pursuant to a Placement Agreement dated July 22, 2007 CanArgo Limited a Guernsey Channel Islands company wholly owned by CanArgo will offer for sale up to 8 million ordinary shares of Tethys Petroleum Limited (TSX:TPL) (“TPL”) held by CanArgo Limited (the “Offered Shares”). The shares of TPL will be sold in brokered transactions on or after July 31, 2007. The shares will be offered for sale at prices not less than C$2.95. The shares represent 17.7% of the shares of TPL outstanding and if all shares are sold, CanArgo will no longer be a shareholder of TPL. The net proceeds received from the sale of these shares estimated at approximately US$21.3 million will be used by CanArgo to pay down existing indebtedness under its outstanding Senior Secured Notes due July 25, 2009 and to the extent of any excess net proceeds, its outstanding Senior Subordinated Convertible Guaranteed Notes due September 1, 2009.
The Offered Shares will only be offered in those jurisdictions where such securities may be lawfully offered for sale and therein only by persons permitted to sell such securities. No securities regulatory authority has expressed or will express an opinion about these securities and it is an offence to claim otherwise. The Offered Shares have not and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), or the securities laws of any state of the United States of America (the “United States”) and, subject to certain exceptions, may not be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of, directly or indirectly, within the United States or its territories or possessions except in transactions exempt from registration under the 1933 Act and under the securities laws of any applicable state. This announcement does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the Offered Shares within the United States, its territories or possessions.
The information in this report (including its exhibit) shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to liability of that section. The information in this report (including its exhibit) shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
A copy of the Press Release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
