OAN Resources Ltd.

BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDING

OAN Resources Ltd. (the “Company”) failed to file a proposal by the most recent deadline imposed by the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta (the “Court”). Consequently, the Company was deemed to have made an assignment into bankruptcy as of October 16, 2019. A copy of the Certificate of Assignment issued by the Office of the Superintendent of Bankruptcy can be found below.

Hardie & Kelly Inc. has been appointed as trustee of the bankrupt estate (the “Trustee”).

Pursuant to section 69.3(1) of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (the “BIA”), creditors are prohibited from continuing or commencing any actions or exercising any rights against the Company except with leave of the Court.

Sales Process

The Court has agreed that the Trustee's application seeking to approve the sale of OAN's assets will proceed by way of desk application given the urgency of the matter arising from the limited funds in the bankrupt estate and the risk to the Orphan Well Association should the sale not proceed. If any party has any concerns, kindly advise the Trustee by noon on Monday, March 23, 2020.

The Trustee had engaged Sayer Energy Advisors (“Sayer”) as its sales agent to market the oil and gas interests of the Company. A copy of the Sale Solicitation Process document outlining the terms and conditions of the sales process and Sayer's mailer summarizing the opportunity can be found below:
