|
CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - Jan. 10, 2008) - Bulldog Resources Inc. ("Bulldog") (TSX:BD) is pleased to announce that it has obtained an Interim order of the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta providing for, among other things, the holding of a meeting of the shareholders of Bulldog to approve the previously announced arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) (the "Arrangement") with TriStar Oil & Gas Ltd. ( "TriStar"). A special meeting of the holders of Bulldog common shares ( the "Bulldog Shareholders") will be held in respect of the Arrangement in the Strand Room at the Metropolitan Conference Centre, 333- 4 Avenue Southwest, Calgary, Alberta on Wednesday February 6, 2008 at 9:00 a.m. ( Calgary time).
Bulldog will mail an Information Circular and Proxy Statement respecting the meeting to the Bulldog Shareholders on January 10, 2008. Following this mailing, the Information Circular and Proxy Statement will be available for viewing electronically under Bulldog's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
Pursuant to the Arrangement, TriStar will issue 0.59 common shares of TriStar for each Bulldog common share. The completion of the Arrangement is subject to certain conditions, including the approval of the Bulldog Shareholders, the final approval of the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta and all applicable regulatory approvals. If all necessary approvals are obtained and the conditions to the completion of the Arrangement are satisfied or waived, Bulldog anticipates that the Arrangement will become effective on or about February 7, 2008.
Tristone Capital Inc. has provided the Board of Directors of Bulldog with a written opinion that, as at January 4, 2008, it is of the opinion that the consideration to be received by Bulldog Shareholders under the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Bulldog Shareholders.
Bulldog's Board of Directors has unanimously determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of Bulldog and its shareholders. The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that the Bulldog Shareholders vote to approve the Arrangement at the shareholders meeting planned for February 6, 2008.
