To me this seems bad news indeed! The point is what was paid for this stake, which means a valuation of the stake of ERHE in the block.
"In return for obtaining Overt's 5 per cent participating interest in Block 4, Addax Petroleum is obligated to pay:
- US$10 million to Overt as consideration for the interest"
5 % without a signature bonus is valued at about $ 15 million. The stake of ERHE would based on this valuation be valued at about $ 50 million, which is less than 10% of the current market cap of ERHE. Block 4 is supposed to be the most attractive block.
