LONDON, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire - July 29, 2011) - Torque Energy Inc. (TSX VENTURE:TQE) advises that at its annual and special shareholder meeting held today, its shareholders approved the amalgamation of Torque with a subsidiary of Dundee Energy Limited (formerly called Eurogas Corporation) whereby Torque will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dundee Energy. The amalgamation was approved by over 94.0% of the votes cast by all shareholders and by over 86.6% of the votes cast excluding persons and companies affiliated with Dundee Energy.
Shareholders of Torque were able to elect before 4:30 p.m. (Toronto time) on July 27, 2011 to receive on the amalgamation either C$0.50 for each Torque share held or one common share in Dundee Energy for every two Torque shares held.
