Management Update

4th January 2016

Trinity, an independent E&P company focused on Trinidad and Tobago, today announces that Bryan Ramsumair has stepped down as Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") effective 31st December. The Board wishes to thank Bryan for his contribution to date and wishes him well in his future endeavours.

Jeremy Bridglalsingh, aged 36, has assumed the role of CFO having previously held the roles of Financial Controller and Corporate Development Manager during his last four years with Trinity. Jeremy is a Chartered Management Accountant and a member of the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA). Prior to joining Trinity in January 2012 he worked for PricewaterhouseCoopers. The role of CFO is not currently a Board position.

The Company, as part of its strategic review, has continued to make progress in re-basing its cost structure by reducing its general and administrative costs ("G&A") and its operating expenditures ("OPEX") to reduce breakeven levels. Jeremy has been an integral part of this process and in leading discussions with suppliers and creditors. Several initiatives have been made and are underway with further significant cash cost reductions expected to be fully realised during 2016.
