Dear Sir,

TRADING HALT REQUEST

Melbana Energy Limited (ASX: MAY) (Melbana or the Company) requests that pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 17.1, the Company’s securities be placed into a trading halt pending an announcement in relation to a proposed equity placement (Placement).

In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 17.1, the Company advises that:

1. The trading halt is requested pending an announcement in relation to a Placement.

2. The Company requests that the securities remain in a trading halt until the earlier of such times as it makes an announcement to the market in relation to the outcome of the Placement or the commencement of normal trading on 16th March 2021.

3. The Company is not aware of any reason why the trading halt should not be granted.

This request has been authorised by me, the Company Secretary of the Company.

Yours faithfully
