PROSPECTUS.
This Comrany has been formed for the purpose of carrying
ton the business of Gas Works now in full of ope-ation, with
%xclusive privileges, in the following cities and towns of
France and it Sly, viz.:—Strasburg, Cette, Nismes, Vienna,
-troanne BeaucAire Rueil, Albi Milan, Genoa, Parma,
Modena, and Alessandria, and Which now belong o the
cociete " Union des Gaz." The Company will also have the
Power of extending the existing works, and of adoptng., such
other concessions as may be considered sufficiently remune-
rative, either alone or in connection with the Societe "Union
Ilea Gaz."
The confessions thus brought under one management were
obtained at different periods by the Societe" Union des
Gas," and nearly a million sterling has been expended in.
Securing the concessions and in the constructi n and im-
provement of the several works, plant, mains, service pipes,
eine u. ring the last three ears th manageent has been in
Rands of a Private Coympany,e called the" Societe d'Ex-
r Wien d'Usines a Gaz," under a 23 years' working lease,
end blice result has been as follows :
`.•ratis revenue for year ending 30th June, 186, £141,800
30th June, 1162 157,840
1f172,860
improvement thus indicated is steadily progressing.
_ _The capabilities ot the works and the profitable character
or the business having thus been fully established by the
tPerience of a company with limited resources, it is now
propoMroposed to raise sufficient capita, for the repayment of all
sed to
loans, amounting to 2141,500, and for the further
development of the property, to meet the constantly in-
t4B4lg demand for gas in the above-mentioned cities and
owns.
'the Continental Union Gls Company (Limited) have,
therefore..., entered into agreements for the purchase of all
tat rights, privileges, and property of the t, societe d'Exploi-
tation,, for 2,500 paid-up shares ot this Company; and by a
Payment of £50,000 in cash this Corr pany will become entitled
to £47,000 in shores of the "Union des Gaz," to all profits
from the 30th June last, the benefit of all outlay for improve-
foents and extensions during the last years, and will obtain
he surrender of the interests and secure the co-operation 01
ail
...parties concerned.
he "Societe d'Exploitation" thus becomes extinct.
During the period of the contract, the whole profits of the
Works wi 1 pelong to thin Company, after providing for the
Payment of a rental to the " Union des Gaz," cont.lnencing at
~
•••7,000 per annum', and rising in nine years to -„ maximum of
-£14,C00 ; and also for the redemption 'or ',Obligations+,
amounting. with interest to £27,450 annum, by annual
drawings s c,r, ad ever 20 years. An charges of this descrip-
tion have hitherto been paid 0-at of profits, leaving a large
Surplus.
At the expiration of 23 years' contract, under the terms
of their agreement, jc:ne Continental Union Gas Company
(Limited) will berme joint owners to the extent of one-half
of the entire property represented by the several Concessions
and Gas W:iri.s of the "Union des Gaz, will likewise be re-
Paid the amount of all outlay for improvements, extensions,
and n.ew works, and will be entitled thenceforth to not less
than one moiety of the prt,fits, free from all liabilities and
Preferential charges.
A. complete inspection of the several works has been made
on the part of this Company by a thoroughly practical gas
.engineer, who has reported most f avourably of the p ospects
Gi the undertaking.
It is well I.nown to persons conversant with Gas Works
"that the consumption of gas is continually increasing, and
Where, as in this case, exclusive privileges have been obtained,
-the- profits Snore Ise is a still greater ratio. The magnitude
and importance of the cities and towns embraced in the con-
cessions, c oupled with the experience of the past working,
pre such as to secure 20 the shareholders immediate and
:steadily increasing aividends.
A large numb rof the shares are already subscribed. Pro-
espectuses and Forms ot Application may be obtained ot
:Messrs. hill, Fawcett, and Hill, the Brokers of the t 'ompany ;
or at the Temporary Offices of the Comp .ny. The amount
of £1 upi n eacn spa e applied tor mu t be paid to the Com-
pany's Bankers previously to the application being sent in;
this sum will be returned if no allotment is made to the
applican t.
