RECEIPT OF US$10 MILLION ASSOCIATED WITH THE EXPIRY OF OPL
233 PERFORMANCE BOND

SacOil Holdings Limited is pleased to announce the receipt
of US$10 million from Ecobank, associated with the cash
collateral that secured the performance bond on OPL 233. The
cash collateral was originally paid as part of SacOil and
Energy Equity Resources Norway Limited’s (“EERNL”)
obligations to post a performance bond on OPL 233 in April
2012. This performance bond expired on 2 May 2015.

The full refund of US$10 million was received by SacOil on 5
June 2015. Half of the US$10 million receipt is treated as a
part repayment of EERNL’s outstanding loan related to
OPL 233.

Dr  Thabo  Kgogo, Chief Executive Officer of SacOil,
commented, “This represents another positive step in line
with our strategy to ensure that SacOil has a strong cash
position to fund its future growth ambitions by increasing
production and focusing on cash generative assets.”

This refund removes the restriction on the cash balance
associated with the cash collateral.
