LEKOIL Limited

("LEKOIL" or the "Company")

Proposed Placing

LEKOIL (AIM: LEK), the oil and gas exploration and development company with a focus on West Africa, is pleased to announce its intention to raise up to US$12.4 million through an issue of new ordinary shares of US$0.00005 each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") (the "Placing Shares"), with certain existing and new institutional and other investors, via an accelerated book-build pursuant to existing shareholder authorities (the "Placing").

The net proceeds of the Placing will be used to fund the final amount of expenditure to bring Otakikpo into commercial production, which is expected to occur in the coming weeks. The balance of the net proceeds will be used for general corporate and working capital purposes, including the payment of fees associated with the Placing.

Whilst the Company expects to drawdown on the remaining 4 billion NAIRA available under the Sterling Bank plc facility in the future, the Company believes that, as a result of the recent adverse US Dollar-NAIRA foreign exchange rate movement, raising capital now is better done through an equity fundraising.

Details of the Placing

The Placing will be led by Mirabaud Securities LLP ("Mirabaud"). The Placing is not being underwritten. The Placing is subject to the terms and conditions set out in Appendix I to this Announcement.

The final offering price and total number of Placing Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing will be determined in the context of the market with final terms to be determined following the completion of the book-building process. The book will open with immediate effect and close at the sole discretion of Mirabaud. Details on the number of Placing Shares offered and the price at which they are offered will be announced as soon as practicable after the close of the book-building process.

The Placing Shares, when issued, will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing Ordinary Shares with regard to dividend entitlements, interests and all other rights and obligations attaching to the Ordinary Shares.

The Placing Shares will be placed by Mirabaud as an agent of the Company, with certain existing and new institutional and other investors pursuant to the placing agreement governing the Placing (the "Placing Agreement"). Under the terms of the Placing Agreement, Mirabaud will receive commission from the Company conditional on the admission of the Placing Shares to trading on AIM ("Admission") and the Company will give customary warranties and undertakings to Mirabaud in relation, inter alia, to its business and the performance of its duties. There is no other investment banker, broker, finder or other intermediary that has been retained by or is authorised to act on behalf of the Company who might be entitled to any fee or commission in connection with the Placing. In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify Mirabaud in relation to certain liabilities that they may incur in undertaking the Placing. Mirabaud has the right to terminate the Placing Agreement in respect of its obligations in certain circumstances prior to Admission, in particular, in the event that there has been, inter alia, a material breach of any of the warranties given by the Company to Mirabaud.

Your attention is drawn to the detailed terms and conditions of the Placing described in the Appendix to this Announcement (which forms part of this Announcement).

Background to Otakikpo

Otakikpo is sited in a coastal swamp location in oil mining lease (OML) 11, adjacent to the shoreline in the south-eastern part of the Niger Delta. Lekoil Nigeria exercises the rights and benefits of its 40% Participating and Economic interest in Otakikpo via the Farm-in Agreement and Joint Operating Agreement signed on 17 May 2014 with Green Energy International Limited ("GEIL").

The Company holds 90% of the economic interests in Lekoil Nigeria. Lekoil Limited's economic interest in Otakikpo therefore equates to 36%. The Otakikpo Joint Venture (Lekoil as Financial and Technical Partner to GEIL) began operations in December 2014. Ministerial consent was granted by the Honourable Minister of Petroleum Resources of Nigeria in June 2015.

The Otakikpo Field Development Plan consists of two phases. Phase 1 comprises the recompletions of two wells, Otakikpo-002 and Otakikpo-003, with the installation of an Early Production Facility of 10,000 bopd capacity and export via shuttle tanker. Phase 2 covers the subsequent incremental development of the rest of the field with a new Central Processing Facility and seven new wells expected to come on stream during 2017.

The Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) became effective from 3 July 2016. Market soundings, as defined in MAR, were taken in respect of the Placing with the result that certain persons became aware of inside information, as permitted by MAR.

The Company and Mirabaud will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations, acknowledgements and agreements.

Details of the Placing

Mirabaud has entered into an agreement with Lekoil (the "Placing Agreement") under which, subject to the conditions set out in that agreement, Mirabaud will agree to use its reasonable endeavours to procure subscribers for the Placing Shares at the placing price that is to be determined as set out below with certain institutional and other investors.

The Placing is conditional upon the Placing Agreement being entered into and becoming unconditional in all respects.

The Placing Shares will, when issued, rank pari passu in all respects with the existing issued Ordinary Shares, including the right to receive dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid following Admission.

Application for admission to trading

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for admission of the Placing Shares ("Admission") to trading on AIM. It is expected that Admission will become effective and that dealings in the Placing Shares will commence on AIM at 8.00 a.m. on 20 October 2016.

Participation in, and principal terms of, the Placing

Mirabaud is arranging the Placing as agent for and on behalf of the Company. Participation in the Placing will only be available to Placees who may lawfully be, and are, invited to participate by Mirabaud.

The Placing Price and the number of Placing Shares to be issued will be agreed between Mirabaud and the Company following completion of a bookbuilding exercise by Mirabaud (the "Bookbuild"). The Placing Price and number of Placing Shares will be announced on a Regulatory Information Service following the completion of the Bookbuild.

Mirabaud will determine in its absolute discretion the extent of each Placee's participation in the Placing, which will not necessarily be the same for each Placee and this will be confirmed orally by Mirabaud as agent of the Company ("Confirmation"). No element of the Placing will be underwritten. Confirmation will constitute an irrevocable legally binding commitment upon that person (who will at that point become a Placee) to subscribe for the number of Placing Shares allocated to it at the Placing Price on the terms and conditions set out in this Appendix (a copy of the terms and conditions having been provided to the Placee prior to or at the same time as such oral confirmation) and in accordance with the Company's articles of association. For the avoidance of doubt, the Confirmation constitutes each Placee's irrevocable legally binding agreement, subject to the Placing Agreement not having been terminated, to pay the aggregate settlement amount for the Placing Shares to be subscribed for by that Placee regardless of the total number of Placing Shares (if any) subscribed for by any other investor(s).

Mirabaud reserves the right to scale back the number of Placing Shares to be subscribed by any Placee in the event of an oversubscription under the Placing. Mirabaud also reserves the right not to accept offers for Placing Shares or to accept such offers in part rather than in whole.

Each Placee will be required to pay to Mirabaud, on the Company's behalf, the Placing Price for each Placing Share agreed to be acquired by it under the Placing in accordance with the terms set out herein. Each Placee's obligation to acquire and pay for Placing Shares under the Placing will be owed to Mirabaud and the Company. Each Placee has an immediate, separate, irrevocable and binding obligation, owed to Mirabaud, to pay to it (or as it may direct) in cleared funds an amount equal to the product of the Placing Price and the number of Placing Shares such Placee has agreed to subcribe for. Each Placee will be deemed to have read and understood the Appendices in their entirety, to be participating in the Placing upon the terms and conditions contained in the Appendices, and to be providing the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgements and undertakings, in each case as contained in the Appendices. To the fullest extent permitted by law and applicable Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") rules (the "FCA Rules"), neither (i) Mirabaud, (ii) any of its respective directors, officers, employees or consultants, or (iii) to the extent not contained within (i) or (ii), any person connected with Mirabaud as defined in the FCA Rules ((i), (ii) and (iii) being together "affiliates" and individually an "affiliate"), shall have any liability to Placees or to any person other than the Company in respect of the Placing.

Irrespective of the time at which a Placee's participation in the Placing is confirmed, settlement for all Placing Shares to be acquired pursuant to the Placing will be required to be made at the same time, on the basis explained below under 'Registration and Settlement'.

Completion of the Placing will be subject to the fulfilment of the conditions referred to below under 'Conditions of the Placing' and to the Placing not being terminated on the basis referred to below under 'Termination of the Placing Agreement'. In the event that the Placing Agreement is not entered into or does not otherwise become unconditional in any respect or, after having been entered into, is terminated, the Placing will not proceed and all funds delivered by the Placee to Mirabaud in respect of the Placee's participation will be returned to the Placee at the Placee's risk without interest.

By participating in the Placing, each Placee agrees that its rights and obligations in respect of the Placing will terminate only in the circumstances described below and will not otherwise be capable of rescission or termination by the Placee.

By participating in the Placing, each Placee is deemed to have read and understood this Announcement, including the Appendices, in its entirety and to be making such offer on the terms and conditions, and to be providing the representations, warranties, acknowledgements, and undertakings contained in the Appendices.

To the fullest extent permissible by law, neither the Company, Mirabaud nor any of their affiliates shall have any liability to Placees (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise). In particular, neither Mirabaud nor any of its affiliates shall have any liability (including to the extent permissible by law, any fiduciary duties) in respect of Mirabaud's conduct of the Bookbuild or of such alternative method of effecting the Placing as Mirabaud and the Company may agree.

Conditions of the Placing

The obligations of Mirabaud under the Placing Agreement in respect of the Placing Shares are conditional on, amongst other things:

(a) the Company having complied with its obligations under the Placing Agreement (to the extent that such obligations fall to be performed prior to Admission); and

(b) Admission having occurred not later than 8.00 a.m. 20 October 2016 or such later date as the Company and Mirabaud may agree, but in any event not later than 8.00 a.m. on 27 October 2016.

If (i) any of the conditions contained in the Placing Agreement in relation to the Placing Shares are not fulfilled or waived by Mirabaud by the respective time or date where specified, (ii) any of such conditions becomes incapable of being fulfilled or (iii) the Placing Agreement is terminated in the circumstances specified below, the Placing will not proceed and the Placee's rights and obligations hereunder in relation to the Placing Shares shall cease and terminate at such time and each Placee agrees that no claim can be made by the Placee in respect thereof.

Mirabaud, at its discretion and upon such terms as it thinks fit, may waive compliance by the Company with the whole or any part of any of the Company's obligations in relation to the conditions in the Placing Agreement. Any such extension or waiver will not affect Placees' commitments as set out in this Announcement.

None of Mirabaud, the Company or any other person shall have any liability to any Placee (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise) in respect of any decision they may make as to whether or not to waive or to extend the time and/or the date for the satisfaction of any condition to the Placing nor for any decision they may make as to the satisfaction of any condition or in respect of the Placing generally, and by participating in the Placing each Placee agrees that any such decision is within the absolute discretion of Mirabaud

Termination of the Placing Agreement

Mirabaud is entitled (but after, where practicable, having consulted with the Company) at any time before Admission, to terminate the Placing Agreement in relation to its obligations in respect of the Placing Shares by giving notice to the Company if, amongst other things:

(a) the Company fails, in any material respect, to comply with any of its obligations under the Placing Agreement; or

(b) it comes to the notice of Mirabaud that any statement contained in the investor presentation (the "Presentation") issued in connection with the Placing or this announcement was untrue, incorrect or misleading at the date of such Presentation or this announcement or has become untrue, incorrect or misleading in each case in any respect which Mirabaud (acting reasonably) considers to be material in the context of the Placing or that any matter which Mirabaud considers to be material in the context of the Placing has arisen which would, if the Placing were made at that time, constitute a material omission therefrom; or

(c) any of the warranties given by the Company in the Placing Agreement has ceased to be true and accurate in any respect which Mirabaud (acting reasonably) considers to be material in the context of the Placing by reference to the facts subsisting at the time when notice to terminate is given; or

(d) there happens, develops or comes into effect: i) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in London declared by the relevant authorities or a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United Kingdom; or ii) the outbreak or escalation of hostilities or acts of terrorism involving the United Kingdom or any other relevant jurisdiction the laws or regulations of which apply to a member of the Group or the Group's assets ("Relevant Jurisdiction") or the declaration by the United Kingdom or any other Relevant Jurisdiction of a national emergency or war or any other occurrence of any kind which in any such case (by itself or together with any other such occurrence) in the reasonable opinion of Mirabaud is likely to materially and adversely affect the market's position or prospects of the Group taken as a whole; or iii) any other crisis of international or national effect or any change in any currency exchange rates or controls or in any financial, political, economic or market conditions or in market sentiment which, in any such case, in the reasonable opinion of Mirabaud is materially adverse.

Upon such termination, the parties to the Placing Agreement shall be released and discharged (except for any liability arising before or in relation to such termination) from their respective obligations under or pursuant to the Placing Agreement subject to certain exceptions.

By participating in the Placing, Placees agree that the exercise by Mirabaud of any right of termination or other discretion under the Placing Agreement shall be within the absolute discretion of Mirabaud and that they need not make any reference to Placees and that they shall have no liability to Placees whatsoever in connection with any such exercise or failure so to exercise.

No prospectus

No offering document, prospectus or admission document has been or will be submitted to be approved by the FCA or submitted to the London Stock Exchange in relation to the Placing and Placees' commitments will be made solely on the basis of the information contained in this Announcement (including the Appendices) released by the Company today, and subject to the further terms set forth in the contract note to be provided to individual prospective Placees.

Each Placee, by accepting a participation in the Placing, agrees that the content of this Announcement (including the Appendices) is exclusively the responsibility of the Company and confirms that it has neither received nor relied on any other information, representation, warranty, or statement made by or on behalf of the Company, Mirabaud or any other person and none of Mirabaud nor the Company nor any other person will be liable for any Placee's decision to participate in the Placing based on any other information, representation, warranty or statement which the Placees may have obtained or received. Each Placee acknowledges and agrees that it has relied on its own investigation of the business, financial or other position of the Company in accepting a participation in the Placing. Nothing in this paragraph shall exclude the liability of any person for fraudulent misrepresentation.

Registration and settlement

Settlement of transactions in the Placing Shares through DIs following Admission will take place within the system administered by Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited ("CREST"), subject to certain exceptions. The Company reserves the right to require settlement for and delivery of the Placing Shares (or a portion thereof) to Placees in certificated form if, in the opinion of Mirabaud, delivery or settlement is not possible or practicable within the CREST system or would not be consistent with the regulatory requirements in the Placee's jurisdiction.

Participation in the Placing is only available to persons who are invited to participate in it by Mirabaud.

A Placee's commitment to acquire a fixed number of Placing Shares under the Placing will be agreed orally with Mirabaud. Such agreement will constitute a legally binding commitment on such Placee's part to acquire that number of Placing Shares at the Placing Price on the terms and conditions set out or referred to in the Appendices and subject to the Company's Articles of Association.

After such agreement is entered into, each Placee allocated Placing Shares in the Placing will be sent contract notes stating the number of Placing Shares allocated to it at the Placing Price and settlement instructions. Following the close of the Bookbuild, each Placee allocated Placing Shares in the Placing will be sent a trade confirmation in accordance with the standing arrangements in place with Mirabaud, stating the number of Placing Shares allocated to it at the Placing Price, the aggregate amount owed by such Placee to Mirabaud and settlement instructions. Each Placee agrees that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed in accordance with either the standing CREST or certificated settlement instructions that it has in place with Mirabaud.

Each Placee agrees that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed in accordance with the standing CREST or certificated settlement instructions that it has in place with Mirabaud. Settlement should be through Mirabaud against CREST ID: 834, account designation: CLEARING. For the avoidance of doubt, Placing allocations will be booked with a trade date of 17 October 2016 and settlement date of 20 October 2016.

The Company will deliver DIs in respect of the Placing Shares to the CREST account operated by Mirabaud as agent for the Company and Mirabaud will enter their delivery (DEL) instruction into the CREST system. The input to CREST by a Placee of a matching or acceptance instruction will then allow delivery of DIs in respect of the relevant Placing Shares to that Placee against payment. The DIs will be held as nominee for the relevant Placee.

It is expected that settlement will take place on 20 October 2016, on a delivery versus payment basis.

Interest is chargeable daily on payments not received from Placees on the due date in accordance with the arrangements set out above at the rate of two percentage points above LIBOR as determined by Mirabaud.

Each Placee is deemed to agree that, if it does not comply with these obligations, the Company may sell any or all of the Placing Shares allocated to that Placee on such Placee's behalf and retain from the proceeds, for the Company's account and benefit, an amount equal to the aggregate amount owed by the Placee plus any interest due. The relevant Placee will, however, remain liable for any shortfall below the aggregate amount owed by it and may be required to bear any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax (together with any interest or penalties) which may arise upon the sale of such Placing Shares on such Placee's behalf.

If Placing Shares or DIs are to be delivered to a custodian or settlement agent, Placees should ensure that the trade confirmation is copied and delivered immediately to the relevant person within that organisation. Insofar as Placing Shares or DIs are registered in a Placee's name or that of its nominee or in the name of any person for whom a Placee is contracting as agent or that of a nominee for such person, such Placing Shares should, subject as provided below, be so registered free from any liability to UK stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax. Placees will not be entitled to receive any fee or commission in connection with the Placing.

It acknowledges and agrees that no information has been prepared by Mirabaud or the Company for the purposes of this Placing;

34. accordingly it acknowledges and agrees that it will not hold Mirabaud or any of its affiliates or any person acting on their behalf responsible or liable for any misstatements in or omission from any publicly available information relating to the Company or information made available (whether in written or oral form) in presentations or as part of roadshow discussions with investors relating to the Company (the "Information") and that neither Mirabaud nor any person acting on behalf of Mirabaud makes any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of such Information or accepts any responsibility for any of such Information; and

38. it acknowledges and agrees that they have read and understood the following regarding the Company's status as a passive foreign investment company ("PFIC") for US federal income tax purposes:

The Company may be considered a PFIC for US federal income tax purposes. If this is the case, any investor in the Company's Ordinary Shares deemed to be a "US holder" for US federal income tax purposes could be subject to material adverse US federal income tax consequences. Consequently, each such investor should consult its own tax advisor regarding the Company's possible PFIC status.

c. it agrees that the Company may require a certification from it in support of any transfer, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, and agrees that the Company, the registrar, CREST or any transfer agent may reasonably require additional evidence or documentation supporting compliance with applicable securities laws, and prior to any sale or transfer, the Company may require the delivery of such certifications, notifications, agreements and warranties and legal opinions of duly qualified counsel as it may reasonably require to confirm that the proposed sale or other transfer complies with the foregoing restrictions;

The Placee understands and acknowledges that any offer, resale, pledge or transfer made other than in compliance with the restrictions contained in this paragraph may not be recognised by the Company;

In addition, Placees should note that they will be liable for any stamp duty and all other stamp, issue, securities, transfer, registration, documentary or other duties or taxes (including any interest, fines or penalties relating thereto) payable outside the United Kingdom by them or any other person on the subscription by them of any Placing Shares or the agreement by them to subscribe for any Placing Shares.

Each Placee and any person acting on behalf of each Placee acknowledges and agrees that Mirabaud or any of its affiliates may, at their absolute discretion, agree to become a Placee in respect of some or all of the Placing Shares.

All times and dates in this Announcement may be subject to amendment. Mirabaud shall notify the Placees and any person acting on behalf of the Placees of any changes.

Past performance is not a guide to future performance and persons needing advice should consult an independent financial adviser.
