JKX OIL & GAS plc ("JKX" or the "Company")

AGM Update

The Board of JKX announced on 31 May 2013 that, following extensive enquiries pursuant to section 793 of the Companies Act 2006, it had issued notices to both Eclairs Group Limited ("Eclairs") and Glengary Overseas Limited ("Glengary") (and their nominees) restricting each of them, amongst other things, from voting at a general meeting of the Company. Eclairs and Glengary (the "Restricted Parties") have submitted claims to the court that these notices are not effective and a court date has been set for 22 July 2013 to consider these claims.

The Annual General Meeting ("AGM") of the Company is taking place prior to the hearing date and accordingly the Company will be conducting a poll in respect of resolutions 2, 5, 9, 10 and 11 both on the basis that the votes of the Restricted Parties' respective authorised nominees should be counted and on the basis that these should not be counted. Following the AGM, the Company will announce voting figures on these two alternative bases and will also announce the outcome in respect of the various resolutions.
