Wenzel Downhole Tools Ltd. Sets the Record Straight And Encourages Shareholders to Vote for Plan of Arrangement
Marketwire - Thu Jul 25, 6:01AM CDT
Wenzel Downhole Tools Ltd. (TSX: WZL) ("Wenzel" or the "Company") wishes to refute inaccurate and misleading statements regarding the proposed plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") involving Wenzel, Basin Tools L.P. ("Basin") and 1748017 Alberta Ltd. (the "Purchaser") contained in recent news releases published by Perlus Investment Management LLC ("Perlus"), a minority shareholder of Wenzel.
Major Shareholder Urges Wenzel Shareholders to Vote Against the Proposed Arrangement With Basin Tools, L.P.
Marketwire - Wed Jul 24, 6:41PM CDT
Perlus Investment Management LLP announced by way of news releases issued on July 10, 2013 and July 22, 2013 its reasons for opposing the proposed business combination (the "Arrangement") involving Wenzel Downhole Tools Ltd. ("Wenzel") and Basin Tools, L.P. ("Basin"). We strongly encourage Wenzel's shareholders to read those news releases. In both releases, it was noted that the consideration of $2.25 per share for Wenzel shares was grossly inadequate and in no way reflects a fair value for Wenzel. Basin, the single largest shareholder of Wenzel, unilaterally initiated the process whereby Basin would acquire the balance of Wenzel at a significant discount to fundamental fair value. Two members of Wenzel's board, including its Chairman, are founding members of an affiliate of Basin and the non-executive chairman of Basin. It was Basin who initiated and orchestrated the strategic review process and it is Basin who is responsible for paying for the valuation and fairness opinion (the "Valuation") upon which the board of Wenzel is relying in order to fulfill their fiduciary obligation to act in the best interests of Wenzel shareholders and have arrogated that the consideration is fair. The Valuation has already been found to be incorrect post issuance, which subsequently forced an amendment to the information circular and postponement of the meeting. Perlus firmly believes that the Valuation remains critically flawed and has requested that Wenzel seek another valuation that would be transparently independent. Wenzel has ignored our requests. Basin also forced Wenzel to agree to a non-solicitation clause; this meant that Wenzel was effectively denied the latitude to explore or to even entertain alternative offers. As a consequence, Wenzel was limited to simply determining whether the consideration was fair by receipt of a Valuation commissioned as a result of a process initiated by Basin and paid for by Basin (the very definition of a compromised transaction); Basin clearly wants Wenzel and has gone to extraordinary measures to get it.
