Further to the announcement on 6 December 2023 (the "Placing Announcement")
regarding the Firm and Conditional Placing to raise £200,000, the Company
today announces that it has published a shareholder circular (the "Circular")
and notice of general meeting (the "General Meeting") for the purpose of
proposing a vote in relation to certain resolutions (the "Resolutions"). The
detailed reasons for and background to the Resolutions are set out in the
Circular, which will be posted on the Company's website later today and posted
to shareholders early next week.
Capitalised terms used in this announcement have the meaning given in the
Placing Announcement unless the context requires otherwise or as otherwise
defined herein.
The General Meeting of Lansdowne Oil & Gas PLC is to be held at the
offices of Tavira Financial Ltd., 13th Floor, 88 Wood Street, London EC2V on

(Ireland) Limited, 3100 Lake Drive, Citywest Business Campus, Dublin 24, D24
AK82, Ireland by no later than 10.00 a.m. on 27 December 2023.
Completion and return of a Form of Proxy will not preclude Shareholders from

In the Placing Announcement, it was reported that LC Capital would be issued

with the Conditional Placing. This should have noted that LC Capital would

connection with the Conditional Placing. The aggregate number of warrants LC
will hold following the issue of the LC Warrants will be 41,529,826, as
reported in the Placing Announcement.
Recommendation
The Directors consider the passing of the Resolutions to be in the best
interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. The Directors wish
to raise additional working capital by completing the Conditional Placing and
in the future an equity fundraising may be required at short notice to raise
further capital to allow the Company to continue as a going concern in the
event of such additional working capital being available on terms acceptable
to the Directors. Accordingly, the Directors unanimously recommend that all
Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolutions, as they intend to do, or
procure to be done, in respect of their own beneficial shareholdings, being at
the Latest Practicable Date, in aggregate, 10,229,279 Ordinary Shares,
representing approximately 0.86 per cent. of the existing issued Ordinary
Share capital. In addition, LC Capital has indicated that it intends to vote
in favour of the Resolutions in respect of its holdings of 171,241,938
Ordinary Shares representing 14.35% of the existing issued Ordinary Share
capital.
