Item 8.01—Other Events.

 

As set forth in a definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) filed by FX Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 21, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company has called a special meeting of holders of the Company’s common stock (the “Special Meeting”) to be held on December 31, 2015 for the purpose of voting on:

 

·                  A proposal to approve the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated October 13, 2015 CET (October 12, 2015 MST) (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, ORLEN Upstream Sp. z o.o. (“ORLEN Upstream”) and Kiwi Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of ORLEN Upstream (“Merger Sub”); and

 

·                  A proposal to approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the compensation that may be paid or become payable to the Company’s named executive officers in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement;

 

as more fully described in the Proxy Statement. Holders of record of the Company’s common stock as of the close of business on December 18, 2015 are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Special Meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, on October 27, 2015, Merger Sub commenced a tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) for all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company.  As a result of its acquisition of shares pursuant to the Tender Offer, as of the record date for the Special Meeting, Merger Sub was the record holder of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. Accordingly, Merger Sub has sufficient voting power to approve the Merger Agreement at the Special Meeting without the affirmative vote of any other holder of the Company’s common stock.  ORLEN Upstream and Merger Sub have agreed that they will vote all shares of common stock then owned by them in favor of approval of the Merger Agreement.  Accordingly, approval of the Merger Agreement at the Special Meeting is assured.

 

The Proxy Statement contains important information about the Company, ORLEN Upstream, Merger Sub, the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Special Meeting and related matters. STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT CAREFULLY.

 

Stockholders are able to obtain free copies of the Proxy Statement and other documents filed with the SEC by the Company through the web site maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov or by phone, email or written request by contacting the Company at the following:
