GENERAL: NZO: Cue Energy Resources

NZOG Offshore, a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Zealand Oil & Gas, is making
an unconditional takeover offer for ASX-listed Cue Energy Resources Limited.

The on-market cash offer of A$0.10 per share expires at the end of trading on
the ASX on 27 March 2015.
A copy of the Bidder's Statement is attached and will be sent to Cue Energy
shareholders.

New Zealand Oil & Gas believes Cue's major asset, a 5 per cent interest in
the Maari oil field in New Zealand, is a quality asset that fits our
portfolio well.

In December New Zealand Oil & Gas, through NZOG Offshore, made an off-market
purchase of 19.99 per cent of Cue Energy from Todd Petroleum at the same
price, for a total value of A$13.96 million.

Established in 1981 and listed on the New Zealand and Australian stock
