announced on the 16 August 2024) and will be used towards general working
capital purposes as the Company moves to finalise its 31 March 2024 year-end
accounts.
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.
On 16 August 2024, the Company 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.
