                              Kibo Energy PLC (‘Kibo’ or the ‘Company’)
                                       Clarification Statement

  Kibo Energy PLC (‘Kibo’ or the ‘Company’), the multi-asset, Africa focused, energy company,
  provides the following clarification statement regarding certain details announced in the RNS of 15
  May 2020.

  On careful assessment of all relevant facts concerning the vested interest of all key stakeholders, the
  Company confirms that it will be guided by the following criteria when making formal share conversion
  offers to individual members of the board and management of the Company in respect of fees and
  salaries in arrears (the ‘Offer’), as described in paragraphs 6 and 7 of section 2.0 of the Circular (page
  9), issued on 15 May 2020.

  1. The conversion price per share will be the higher of the 10 day volume weighted average price
     following the first ten days of trading after the date of the EGM to be held on 8 June 2020 and the
     last placing price, being 0.45p (4.5p post consolidation) (“Issue Price”); and

  2. Warrants will also be offered to convert at the Issue Price with a three-year term for exercise.

  The board of the Company reserves its position to propose as an alternative to the Offer, a structured
  cash or deferred loan settlement in respect of the fees and salaries in arrears, should it decide that this
  alternative provides a better and more practical solution for the Company at the relevant time.

                                                 **ENDS**

  Notes
  Kibo Energy PLC is a multi-asset, Africa focused, energy company positioned to address the acute
  power deficit, which is one of the primary impediments to economic development in Sub-Saharan
  Africa. To this end, it is the Company’s objective to become a leading independent power producer in
  the region.

  Kibo is simultaneously developing three similar coal-fuelled power projects: the Mbeya Coal to Power
  Project (‘MCPP’) in Tanzania; the Mabesekwa Coal Independent Power Project (‘MCIPP’) in Botswana;
  and the Benga Independent Power Project (‘BIPP’) in Mozambique. By developing these projects in
  parallel, the Company intends to leverage considerable economies of scale and timing in respect of
  strategic partnerships, procurement, equipment, human capital, execution capability / capacity and
  project finance.

  Additionally, the Company has a 60% interest in MAST Energy Developments Limited (‘MED’), a
  private UK registered company targeting the development and operation of flexible power plants to
  service the UK Reserve Power generation market.
