EURO Ressources S.A. Receives Rights Offering Proceeds
James H. Dunnett, Directeur-General of EURO commented:"We are verypleased with the strong support from our shareholders and thank them for theirconfidence. It is gratifying that we have not needed to call upon theunderwriting assistance from either Macquarie Bank or Golden Star and that theissue was fully subscribed by the broad majority of our shareholders.
"The proceeds of the issue will provide in excess of US$11 million. Thisis more than we had anticipated due to the favourable movement in the exchangerate between the US Dollar and the Euro and gives us added liquidity.
"At the same time, and at our request, we anticipate that Golden Starwill now agree to a deferment until 2008, on favourable terms, of the paymentsotherwise due to them in regard to the Rosebel Royalty and their subordinatedloan. If we are successful in these negotiations, the deferment will provideadded liquidity to EURO and allow us to better reduce our gold hedge position.We expect we may repay our loan from Macquarie Bank as part of thisre-arrangement of our finances. Discussions remain ongoing but are expected toconclude after the US Thanksgiving Holiday."
