Swala and Hayaat have agreed the Loan Facility in order to advance the development of the Company’s assets pending the approval of the farm-outs by the relevant governmental authorities and as part of the financial planning for the farm-out undertaken during the past months.
“We are grateful to Hayaat International for their ongoing support and recognition of the efforts being undertaken by the Company’s personnel as we organise the government´s approval of our farm-outs.
