Africa Hydrocarbons Reports on Permit Extension

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN
THE UNITED STATES.


Africa Hydrocarbons Inc. (the Company) (TSX VENTURE:NFK) reports that its
application for a second one-year extension of the Bouhajla Permit is still
before the relevant government authorities, as first reported in its press
release dated May 29, 2014. The adoption of the newly created constitution in
January of this year, and in particular the interpretation of Article 13, has
resulted in delays for a number of companies with respect to issues related to
the administration of rights across the natural resources sector. 


John Nelson, CEO of the Company states "The Operator has just returned from
meetings in Tunis and is confident that a concerted effort is being made to
resolve the administrative complexity that has been created, so that companies
can continue with their exploration programs. Additional news will be released
once we receive notice regarding our extension application, and upon approval,
initiate the re-completion of the BHN-1 well that also had to be put on hold
pending final government approval of the permit extension."
