Following the recent change of name to Polaris Infrastructure Inc by Ram Power, in a recent press release, the Company announced today that, in accordance with the terms of the private placement agreement dated April 20, 2015 between the Company and Goodwood Inc., it has completed the equity financing and rec-apitalization transaction that was previously announced on April 20, 2015.

“The injection of equity capital, combined with a significant restructuring of its balance sheet, will enable the Company to focus on optimizing the cash flow generation of the San Jacinto project over the long term,” said Marc Murnaghan, the Company’s newly-appointed Chief Executive Officer.

The first step of the Transaction was completed when the Company closed a private placement offering on April 30, 2015 of 18,598,500,000 subscription receipts at a price per Subscription Receipt of Cdn$0.004  for gross proceeds of approximately Cdn$74 million.

The Company is pleased to announce that, as of today, the escrow release conditions have been fully satisfied, the Subscription Receipts have been converted into common shares and the proceeds of the private placement have been released to the Company.
