Grant of Share Options to Incentivise Long Term Performance

Independent Oil and Gas plc ("IOG" or "the Company"), (AIM: IOG.L), the development and production focused oil and gas company, announces that it has today granted options over, in aggregate, 6,700,000 ordinary shares in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") to its directors, senior management and employees at an exercise price payable of 12.75 pence per Ordinary Share (the "Options"), being the middle market closing price on 30 April 2019, the latest practicable date prior to this announcement.

These option awards have been issued under the Company Share Option Plan ('CSOP') which replaces the cancelled Long Term Incentive Plan ('LTIP'), and cancels all options to have been granted under that plan scheduled in 2019 and 2020.

The new Options set out in the tables below for Directors, Executive Management and Employees are intended to reward long term performance and all vest after three years from date of grant and are subject to the satisfaction of certain performance conditions including Sanction of Phase 1 of the Southern North Sea Development Project. Subject to vesting and such performance conditions being met, the new Options are exercisable for up to ten years from the date of grant and will lapse if not exercised by such date.
