(“ADL” or the “Company”)

Results of General Meeting & Issue of Bonus Warrants

Andalas Energy and Power Plc, the AIM listed Indonesian focused oil and gas exploration company (AIM: ADL), is pleased to announce that all resolutions were passed at its general meeting held today.

The Company is also pleased to provide an update on the issue of up to 179,536,825 bonus warrants to subscribe for new Ordinary Shares of nil par value in the Company (“Bonus Warrants”), further to its announcement and admission document dated 27 April 2016 (“Admission Document”).

Capitalised but undefined terms shall have the meaning given to them in the definitions appearing in the Admission Document, a copy of which can be found at http://www.andalasenergy.co.uk/.

At the general meeting, CEO Dave Whitby made the following statement:

“With all resolutions passed, the management team can now focus on delivering the vision to build an Indonesian focused energy company.  Like all shareholders, I am disappointed with the discounted price of the readmission fundraise and I can assure you that the Board did not take the decision to complete the reverse on these terms lightly.  However, faced with a lack of appetite in London for start-up energy companies and a fast approaching deadline to IPO, we had to accept the terms to allow us to move the business forward or risk losing the momentum that we have established on the ground in Indonesia.

“The fundamentals of the Company are strong: a management team with direct Indonesian experience; a clear evaluation and development strategy to identify and secure assets which match our investment criteria; a first asset, TOE, which is perfectly positioned to be the foundation asset to deliver our gas to power strategy; and cash in the bank to fund a drilling programme, which is on track to commence in the near term.

“The team’s skillset and network, specifically in Indonesia’s energy sector, allow our ambitions to go much further than building an oil and gas company, but to also make a significant contribution to the country’s power crisis at the local level.  With this in mind, our Gas to Power proposition continues to gain traction with local and national players and we are actively engaged in top level discussions with a number of relevant parties.   Our task now is to deliver on the foundation we have created and in the process generate value for our shareholders from what we believe is a low entry point into an exciting opportunity.”

2. Issue of Bonus Warrants

Further to its announcement dated 27 April 2016 and following the passing of the Resolutions at today’s General Meeting, the Company is pleased to advise that the Bonus Warrants shall be issued to Qualifying Shareholders on Monday 16 May 2016.

The issue of the Bonus Warrants will be to Qualifying Shareholders, being those Shareholders who hold Ordinary Shares in the Company as at 5.00 p.m. on 13 May 2016; on a pro rata basis of one Bonus Warrant for every four Ordinary Shares held. The Bonus Warrants will only be issued to Shareholders of the Company entered into the register of members at that time and with a registered address outside the Prohibited Territories.

The exercise price of the Bonus Warrants will be 0.2 pence per new Ordinary Share, being the same as the Issue Price. The Bonus Warrants, which shall be unlisted and non-transferable, will be exercisable on the Bonus Warrants Exercise Date being 31 May 2016 only (although irrevocable exercise notices and subscription funds can be issued to the Company prior to that date). If any of the Bonus Warrants remain unexercised on the Exercise Date, they will expire.

The Bonus Warrant Instrument is summarised in the Admission Document and contains provisions typically found in such instruments, including those relating to the adjustment of the terms of the Bonus Warrants, protections for holders of Bonus Warrants and the procedures for the modification of the rights of the Bonus Warrants.

Ordinary Shares in respect of the Bonus Warrants will be allotted within ten business days of the Exercise Date. Any Warrants not exercised during the Subscription Period shall lapse.

Qualifying Shareholders who hold Ordinary Shares in certificated form

The Company will shortly be posting a Warrant Certificate and Subscription Form to Qualifying Shareholders who hold Ordinary Shares in certificated form (i.e. outside of CREST), which will contain details on the number of Bonus Warrants to which they are entitled, instructions on how to exercise the Bonus Warrants, and details on any bona fide market claims. The Warrant Certificates and Subscription Forms are expected to be dispatched by 16 May 2016.

Qualifying Shareholders who hold Ordinary Shares in uncertificated form

Qualifying Shareholders who hold Ordinary Shares in CREST will shortly have the Bonus Warrants enabled in CREST. Those Qualifying Shareholders wishing to exercise their Bonus Warrants, who hold their Bonus Warrants through CREST, should send a USE (Unmatched Stock Event) instruction as set out below together with a remittance for the aggregate exercise amount (calculated as the number of Bonus Warrants being exercised, multiplied by the exercise price of 0.2 pence per Bonus Warrant) in respect of which the Bonus Warrants are being exercised. When sending a USE instruction, Qualifying Shareholders should use the following participant and member account IDs when processing their instructions:


CREST Participant ID = 8RA34
CREST Member Account ID = ANDALAS
 

The USE instruction should be inputted to settle in accordance with the CREST timetable on the Exercise Date (being 31 May 2016), a USE instruction which has not settled on the Exercise Date will be treated as an invalid exercise request and the Bonus Warrants subject to that exercise request will lapse.

Questions about the Bonus Warrant Issue

Further terms of the proposed Bonus Warrant Issue are set out in the Admission Document.

All enquiries in connection with the Bonus Warrant Issue should be addressed to Computershare Investor Services PLC, The Pavilions, Bridgwater Road, Bristol BS13 8AE or you can contact the Receiving Agent on 0370 707 4040 or if you are calling from overseas +44 370 707 4040 between 8.30 a.m. and 5.30 p.m. (London time) Monday to Friday.
