Knoxville, Tenn., Dec. 29 - Nighthawk Energy plc said it raised about £10 million by selling unsecured convertible loan notes in a private placement with Johan Claesson, who will invest £8 million, and Peter Gyllenhammar, who will invest £2 million.

The 0% notes mature in three years and are convertible into shares at 2.5p per share. The conversion price is identical to the closing share price on Dec. 28.

Proceeds will be used to acquire another 25% working interest in the Jolly Ranch Project and for working capital, in particular for the work program at the Jolly Ranch Project.
