Successful Placing to fund Aminex to First Gas Production
The Company is pleased to announce that it has successfully raised approximately £3.3 million (approximately $4.4 million) before expenses to fund the Company to the expected receipt of revenue from first gas production at the Ntorya field, currently projected for end of 2024, through the issue of 440,482,181 new ordinary shares in the capital of Aminex (the "Placing") at a price of Stg 0.75p per share (the "Placing Shares").
The board of Aminex has taken the strategic decision to seek funds at this stage to meet all of its forecasted running costs (before contingent liabilities) to the end of 2024, when first gas has been targeted by the operator of the Ruvuma PSA, ARA Petroleum Tanzania Limited ("APT"). As previously announced, the Company has continued to reduce its overheads over the last three years and the Company's estimated running costs for 2022 (before one-off costs and exceptional items) are approximately US$1.4 million.

o Conclusion of negotiations and execution of a Gas Sales Agreement
o Finalisation of terms for the construction of (i) an export pipeline from Ntorya to the Madimba Gas Plant to accommodate gas by October 2023; and (ii) in-field gas gathering and processing facilities
->o Entering into a rig contract to (i) drill, test and complete the Chikumbi-1 well ("CH-1") as a gas producer; and (ii) workover and recomplete the NT-1 well as a gas producer
>o Following the processing of 3D seismic data, an optimal well location has been determined for the CH-1 well
• APT has also submitted a near final Field Development Plan to the Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation which, upon approval, will lead to the issuance of a Development Licence for the Ntorya field
• Orca Energy, though its subsidiary, Pan African Energy Tanzania, has commenced its 3D seismic acquisition programme over its Songo Songo licence which includes an incursion of 12.5km² over part of the Kiliwani North Development Licence ("KNDL") at no cost to the KNDL parties.
