ITEM 2.01 COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
On December 17, 2012, Ivanhoe Energy Inc. announced that it has completed the transactions contemplated by the previously announced Share Purchase and Sale Agreement with MIE Holdings Corporation (“MIE”) and sold all of the outstanding shares of its indirect wholly owned subsidiary, Pan-China Resources Ltd (“Pan-China”) to MIE (“Pan-China Transaction”). As consideration for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Pan-China, MIE agreed to pay US$45 million in cash, subject to adjustments for working capital, cost recovery adjustments under the Dagang Production Sharing Contract (“PSC”) based on the results of annual audit procedures by CNPC and inter-corporate cash distributions. All such adjustments were made with effect as of September 30, 2012. MIE held back US$4 million of the adjusted purchase price as security for post-closing claims in respect of Pan-China employee severance obligations, contingent tax obligations, additional, presently unquantified cost recovery adjustments under the Dagang PSC based on the results of mandatory audit procedures to be completed after closing and errors or omissions in the calculation of the adjusted purchase price. The hold back amount, less any allowable deductions will be released 180 days after closing.
