Section 7Regulation FD
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
The following information is furnished pursuant to Item 7.01, Regulation FD Disclosure.
On September 07, 2006 CanArgo Energy Corporation (the Company) issued a press release announcing
that its wholly owned subsidiary, Tethys Petroleum Investments Limited (Tethys), has completed a
US$5 million interim financing to fund its development activities in Kazakhstan ahead of the
planned spin-off and flotation of Tethys later this year.
The financing is in the form of the issue of US$5 million senior secured notes (the Notes)
redeemable August 31, 2008. Tethys has the ability to prepay the Notes and the Notes are to be
automatically prepaid in the event of a flotation of Tethys. The proceeds of this financing are
intended to be used to finance, through Tethyss 70% owned Kazakh subsidiary BN Munai LLP, the
development of the Kyzyloi gas field west of the Aral Sea, primarily for the purchase of line pipe,
compressors and related equipment and services.
The loan note holders will also receive warrants to acquire ordinary shares in the capital of
Tethys or, at the discretion of Tethys, a royalty in respect of production. The number of shares
into which the warrants convert is dependent on the timing of the proposed flotation and the
flotation price.
The Company also issued an operations update.
The information in this report (including its exhibit) shall not be deemed to be filed for
purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), or
otherwise subject to liability of that section. The information in this report (including its
exhibit) shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document
filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general
incorporation language in such filing, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference
in such filing.
A copy of the Press Release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
