Tom Evans, Pennpetro's CEO,
comments, "This placing has been completed out of our existing
available headroom of 9.059 million shares. I feel the Company is
now making solid headway with getting our accounts up to date and
look forward to the lifting of the suspension in our shares
shortly, once the auditors finalise their review."
"With respect to the oil
re-vitalisation program in Texas, I am very pleased that the
incoming President of the USA is pro oil drilling, and to this
extent I advise that our new Texas operator, Globalvision have now
completed their technical studies on the Pennpetro assets at
Gonzales County and have advised the Company that the work-over rig
is scheduled to arrive on site in the weeks after US Thanksgiving
to commence oil production works on an accelerated development
program."

On the 12 July 2023, the Company
announced that it had 100,299,081 ordinary shares of £0.01 par
value on issue, each with one vote per share. Therefore, the total
number of voting rights ("TVR") in the Company was
100,299,081.

announced it was issuing 5,000,000 shares as part of £300,000
placing (money received) and these shares ("16 August Shares") have
indeed been issued. The 5,000,000 shares and the 1,000,000 Placing
Shares announced today will add 6,000,000 shares to the previously
reported TVR.
Therefore, the figure of
106,299,081, post the issue of these new Placing Shares, can be
used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for
calculations to determine if they have a notifiable interest in the
share capital of the Company under the Disclosure Guidance and
Transparency Rules, or if such interest has changed.
For clarity purposes, the TVR will
increase by 6,000,000 shares after the Company's shares return to
trading after suspension. These 6,000,000 shares attached to the
£360,000 placing announced on 1 August 2024 have been issued, and
as announced in the RNS of 1 August 2024, will only be admitted to
trading following the lifting of the shares from
suspension.
