RNS-Historic 7 August 2019 ASX: OEX AIM: OEX Acquisition in Cooper-Eromanga Basins Oilex Ltd (“Oilex†or “the Companyâ€) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Holloman Energy Corporation (“HECâ€) to acquire its 48.5003% interest in the PEL 112 and 444 license (the Licenses) in the world class Cooper-Eromanga Basins in South Australia. Pursuant to the share purchase agreement entered into with HEC, the Company will acquire 100% of its wholly owned subsidiary, Holloman Petroleum Pty Ltd (“HPPLâ€) for gross consideration of 40,416,917 ordinary shares in the Company (Shares) at a deemed price of 0.3 cents and A$24,250 for a total consideration of A$145,500. The key terms of the share purchase agreement are set out below. The Company has today issued 24,250,150 ordinary shares as initial consideration (T1) with the final balance of 16,166,767 shares and A$24,250 payable at completion, which is to occur on or before 30 September 2019 (T2). The issue of the T2 shares by Oilex is subject to shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1. The Company is in discussions with the remaining holders in the License to further increase its participating interest in PEL 112 and 444. PEL 112 and PEL 444 The Licenses are held in two Petroleum Exploration Licenses (PELs) located in the South Australia section of the Cooper-Eromanga Basins. Both blocks are located on extensions of the Western Flank oil fairway, the most important recent contributor to oil production in the Cooper Basin. This fairway hosts over 30% of the Cooper Basin oil reserves and has been a major industry focus for new drilling and field development over the last 10 to 15 years. PEL 112 covers 1,086 square kilometres and PEL 444 covers 1166 square kilometres. Each PEL is currently in temporary suspension at the request of the current License holders (a provision with the South Australian government where work obligations are suspended for a fixed period) expiring on 31 July 2019 and for which the Company understands that a further extension will be sought. The PEL’s carry an obligation to drill one well each before January 2021 (PEL 112) and January 2022 (PEL 444) respectively. Both blocks have modern 3D seismic surveys acquired by Holloman and its partners; 127 square kilometre in PEL 112 and 80 square kilometres in PEL 444. Subsequent to the 3D surveys one exploration well was drilled in each 3D area however neither well was successful with the structural integrity of the prospects drilled in question. Undrilled structural prospects and leads have been identified in both blocks. Oilex’s intention is to re-evaluate the 3D seismic data using advanced IP which is designed to fast track the identification of stratigraphic features and geobodies. Importantly the Western Flank discoveries include many fluvial channel features and the stratigraphic section lends itself to the development of many more stratigraphically trapped hydrocarbon pools. Additional technologies available to Oilex include rapid, low cost reconnaissance tools aimed at testing the presence of hydrocarbon signatures in the atmosphere and in the soils overlying hydrocarbon accumulations. The PEL’s are favourably situated given the proven westward migration of oil from the Patchawarra Trough to the Western Flank fields and particularly the presence of oil in a well just to the east of PEL 444. Oilex believes that the existing high-quality 3D data coupled with advanced evaluation tools will result in the identification of new targets for stratigraphic oil pools within these licenses. Terra Nova Energy (Australia) Pty Ltd holds a beneficial interest in and is the operator of the Licences. Key terms The key terms of the share purchase agreement are as follows: · HPPL assets and liabilities: On completion, HPPL must hold no assets or liabilities other than its interest in the Licenses and its portion of the bonds held by the applicable South Australian governmental agencies. · Non-refundable deposit: The issue of the T1 shares is a non-refundable deposit. · T2 Consideration: At completion, the Company will be required to issue the 16,166,767 T2 shares and a cash payment of $24,250 together with a cash payment of $48,500 in consideration for its portion of the bonds held by the applicable governmental agencies in respect of the Licenses. · Conditions precedent: Completion remains subject to and conditional on the receipt of shareholder approval for the issue of the T2 shares; and the receipt of any consent, approval or signed document that is required to be obtained from any third-party or governmental agency in connection with the transaction. These conditions must be satisfied (or where permitted, waived) by no later than 30 September 2019. The necessary waivers and consents under the Joint Operating Agreement have been obtained. · Top-Up Cash Consideration: If, before completion, the Company undertakes an equity raising in excess of A$1 million by an issue of shares at an issue price per share of less than the deemed price of A$0.003, then at completion, the Company must pay the vendor such cash consideration as is equal to the difference in value of the T1 and T2 shares at the deemed price calculated at the average issue price of the equity raising. Managing Director, Joe Salomon, said: “We are pleased to announce this new acquisition in the world class Cooper-Eromanga Basins. The Company has been actively reviewing the basin for more than two years and we anticipate todays first step will be expanded on in the near future. The basin is well endowed with infrastructure providing for attractive low-cost discovery and development for Oilex.†The Company remains committed to unlocking the potential of its Cambay Project in India and delivering value to its shareholders. The Cooper-Eromanga Basins provides an opportunity for shareholder value accretion while preserving significant exposure to the significant potential at Cambay."

High Court Decision on Cambay 5 November 2018 ASX: OEX AIM: OEX High Court Decision on Cambay Stay Order Oilex Ltd (Oilex or the Company) advises that the High Court of Gujarat, India (the Court) has now decided on all applications pending regarding the ex-parte interim stay order (IAAP No. 130 of 2018) obtained by Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation (GSPC) as announced by the Company on 13 August 2018 (the Order). The Court has issued and passed judgement further delaying the implementation of the Event of Default Notice (EoD Notice) dated 29 May 2018 and Notice of Withdrawal of Participating Interest dated 29 July 2018, subject to the fulfilment of all of the following conditions: a) GSPC is directed to deposit a sum of Rs.8.25 crores rupees (US$1.1 million approx) before the Court in the name Registrar of the High Court on or before by 15 November 2015#; b) GSPC is directed to submit a bank guarantee for Rs.21.75 crores rupees (US$3.0 million approx) in the name of Registrar of High Court of Gujarat latest by 15 November 2015#; and c) GSPC shall commence arbitration proceedings on or before 1 December 2018. We are advised by our Indian legal counsel that the applicable date should read 2018 Should GSPC meet the abovementioned conditions, the Court has directed that these conditions remain valid for the duration of the arbitration and that the Cambay Joint Operating Agreement (JOA) will continue to operate during this same period. Accordingly, in addition to submitting in aggregate, 30 crores rupees to the Court, GSPC will also be required to pay its current and ongoing 55% share of the Cambay Joint Venture expenditure while seeking to have the EoD Notice rescinded through the arbitration proceedings. In the event GSPC does not adhere to all of the abovementioned conditions, the stay order will no longer prevent the Company from seeking to implement all of its rights under the JOA. Further to the above observations, the Company is currently considering the order of the Court and will advise of any further actions that it may choose to take, if any. As a result of this announcement, trading in Oilex’s shares on AIM will resume immediately. Background By way of background, on 30 July 2018 Oilex announced that it had formally requested the Government of India (GoI) to transfer GSPC’s participating interest (PI) in the Cambay PSC to the Company. The request was made strictly in accordance with the Joint Operating Agreement and follows GSPC’s failure to remedy the EoD Notice within the required 60-day period. The EoD Notice was a result of GSPC’s ongoing failure to pay its PI share of Cambay PSC expenses. GSPC subsequently served an Order from the Court directing the Company not to take any coercive steps against GSPC. The GSPC Order was awarded on an interim basis to delay the Company transferring GSPC’s PI in the Cambay PSC. Managing Director, Joe Salomon, said: "We are pleased that the Court has reached a decision representing a step forward. Importantly, the Judge has recognised that Cambay is in the national interest, and Oilex is committed to meeting its undertakings to the GoI and contributing to India’s energy security. The Company will shortly engage with the GoI to seek the approval of revised work programmes with the aim of progressing with an active drill programme. Notwithstanding recent events, the Company will continue to seek an amicable solution in good faith for all parties provided that any path forward meets our obligations to the GoI to develop Cambay."
