    Pancontinental Oil & Gas NL (“Pancontinental”, “the Company”) (ASX Code:
    PCL) is pleased to advise that it has completed a bookbuild for a placement to
    sophisticated and professional investors to raise up to $1.2 million through the
    issue of up to 300 million fully paid ordinary shares in the Company (“Shares”)
    at an issue price of 0.4 cents per Share (“the Placement”).
    In addition to the Placement, the Board of Pancontinental has also resolved to
    offer eligible shareholders the opportunity to participate in a Share Purchase
    Plan (“SPP”) to raise up to $1 million (see Share Purchase Plan Details below).
    Funds raised pursuant to the Placement will be used in conjunction with existing
    cash, for costs associated with the potential sale of a part interest in Namibia
    EL0037, other farm out costs, business development and for general working
    capital purposes and other payables (circa A$400,000 to BG Group).
    Commenting on the Placement, Pancontinental CEO Barry Rushworth stated:
    The key focus for Pancontinental at the current time is our Offshore
    Namibian Project – EL0037. Successful 3D and 2D seismic programmes
    have recently been completed and processed at a cost to farminee Tullow
    Oil in excess of US$30 million.”
    “Tullow Oil is itself negotiating with a potential farminee for drilling in
    EL0037 and by end-March 2016 Tullow Oil needs to exercise its option to
    drill, following which Pancontinental would be free carried on a well with
    no caps.”
    Given the quality and the value of the exploration undertaken to date and
    the considerable potential for oil in a number of prospects, Pancontinental
    is confident a decision to drill will be forthcoming and this will be of
    considerable value to PCL’s healthy free carried 30% position in EL0037”.
    “Pancontinental is also seeking to farm down part of its 30% interest for
    cash. The current Placement and SPP strengthens Pancontinental’s
    position as we embark on a very important few months for the Company.”
    Hartleys Limited acted as Broker to the Offer in respect of the Placement and
    SPP.
    ASX ANNOUNCEMENT
    4 DECEMBER 2015
    2 | P a g e
    Settlement of the placement for up to 177.5 million Shares is scheduled for
    Friday, 11 December 2015 and is not subject to shareholder approval. This part
    of the Placement falls within the Company’s existing placement capacity under
    ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.
    Subject to shareholder approval, Directors of Pancontinental have committed to
    subscribe for $500,000 in the Placement. The Company anticipates that it will
    seek such shareholder approval at a general meeting in early January 2016.
    Share Purchase Plan Details
    In order to provide all eligible Shareholders of the Company with the ability to
    participate in this capital raising, the Company is undertaking a Share Purchase
    Plan (“SPP”) to raise up to $1 million, with the company reserving the right to
    raise more than this amount.
    The SPP will enable eligible shareholders, irrespective of the number of Shares
    which they hold in the Company, to purchase up to $15,000 worth of new
    Shares directly from the Company.
    The Company proceeding with the SPP is conditional upon the ASX granting a
    waiver (which the Company expects will be forthcoming) from the operation of
    Listing Rules 7.1 and 10.11 so that the issue price of Shares under the SPP can
    be at the same price as the Placement (being 0.4 cents per Share). If the ASX
    waiver is not granted, the Company reserves the right not to proceed with the
    SPP or to proceed with it on amended terms. The Company will inform
    shareholders of the outcome of the waiver application and the status of the SPP​
    in due course.
