Result of Placing

88 Energy Limited ("88 Energy" or the "Company") (ASX, AIM: 88E) is pleased to announce that, further to the notification on 17 November 2020, the Company has successfully completed a bookbuild to domestic and international institutional and sophisticated investors to raise A$10 million before costs (the "Placing") through the issue of 1,666,666,667 ordinary shares of no par value (the "Placing Shares") at A$0.006 (equivalent to 0.33 pence) per Placing Share.

The Placing was conducted through a bookbuilding process, managed by Cenkos Securities plc in the UK and Euroz Hartleys Ltd in Australia.

The Placing Shares, which will rank pari passu with the existing ordinary shares in the Company, have been conditionally placed subject to admission to trading on both the ASX and AIM ("Admission"). Application will be made for the Placing Shares to be admitted to trading on both the ASX and AIM, with Admission expected to occur on 27 November 2020.

The Placing does not require shareholder approval and the issue and allotment of the Placing Shares will rely on the Company's placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A. However, the Company intends to seek ratification for their issue pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 at the upcoming general meeting (the "Meeting") to be convened towards the end of December 2020.

Directors' Participation

As set out below, each of the Directors of the Company have conditionally agreed to subscribe for a total of 11,666,667 new ordinary shares (the "Subscription Shares"), raising gross proceeds of A$70,000 (the "Subscription") in addition to net proceeds of the Placing.

Their individual participation is as follows:

 
                                                             Resultant Holding

 * Based on an issued share capital of 10,613,971,383 common 
  shares of no par value ordinary shares, being the enlarged 
  issued share capital following the Placing and the Subscription 
 

Completion of the Subscription and the issue of the Subscription Shares is conditional on the approval of Shareholders of the Company at the Meeting. Application will be made for the Subscription Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and ASX following such approval and further announcements will be issued in due course.

Following the issue of the Placing Shares (but not the Subscription Shares), the Company will have 10,602,304,716 ordinary shares in issue, all of which have voting rights. The figure of 10,602,304,716 ordinary shares may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or change their interest in, the Company.

Commenting on the Placing, Dave Wall, Managing Director of 88 Energy, stated:

"Completion of this placement positions the Company strongly as preparations continue for the drilling of the Merlin-1 and Harrier-1 wells, which will test multiple conventional targets, in Q1 CY2021. Final documentation in relation to the Peregrine farm-out with the preferred bidder is progressing with execution of final documents expected in the next few weeks.

Planning and permitting remains on schedule for a late February 2021 spud of the first well at Project Peregrine.

We would like to thank our advisers and shareholders for their continued support as we enter into this critical phase."
