Zenith Energy Ltd., ("Zenith" or the "Company"), (LSE: ZEN; TSX.V: ZEE), the international oil & gas production company operating the largest onshore oilfield in Azerbaijan, is pleased to announce that Mr Andrea Cattaneo, Chief Executive Officer & President of the Company, in accordance with TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") rules, has now fully swapped his salary for the 2018 financial year in exchange for common shares in Zenith ("Salary Sacrifice Shares").
As a result, on May 1, 2018, the Company issued Mr Andrea Cattaneo 1,123,068 common shares ("Salary Sacrifice Shares") in the capital of the Company at an average price of CAD$0.165 (approximately GBP0.094) for the period from April 1, 2017 until March 31, 2018. The amount of the Salary Sacrifice Shares was calculated based on Mr Cattaneo's salary as at April 1, 2017.
Following the issue of the Salary Sacrifice Shares, Mr. Cattaneo is now directly beneficially interested in a total of 5,718,184 common shares in the capital of the Company, representing 3.58 per cent of the total issued and outstanding common share capital of the Company.

The above figure for total number of common shares may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
Background
The Company had announced on January 25, 2017 that Mr. Cattaneo had proposed to the Board of Directors to swap his full salary for the next twelve months, effective from February 1, 2017 (the "Salary Sacrifice Proposal"), in exchange for common shares in the Company. Zenith's Board of Directors agreed to the Salary Proposal subject to the filing of an application with the TSXV and the receipt of approval of the Salary Proposal, including how such Salary Sacrifice Shares would be priced, from the TSXV.
On April 12, 2017 the Company announced that it had been informed by the TSXV that the Salary Proposal required the approval of shareholders, and that the Board of Directors proposed to put a resolution before shareholders at the Company's next AGM to approve the Salary Proposal, however with a revised start date of the beginning of the Company's financial year, April 1, 2017. The resolution proposes that the Salary Sacrifice Shares are issued on a quarterly basis (with the first batch to include all Salary Sacrifice Shares accrued since April 1, 2017) at a price that is the highest between: (i.) the average price at which the Company's common shares traded during the period, based on the mid-market closing price on the London Stock Exchange on each trading day, plus 15 per cent, and (ii.) the discounted market price on the TSXV at the time the Salary Sacrifice Shares are issued.
On September 28, 2017 the Company announced that Mr Cattaneo had been issued 111,131 common shares in the capital of the Company at an average price of GBP0.0925 (approximately CAD$0.154) for the period from April 1, 2017 until September 30, 2017. Under TSXV rules, the Company may not issue Salary Sacrifice Shares beyond the value of CAD$2,500.00 each month, without disinterested shareholder approval.
On April 5, 2018 the Company announced that the 2017 Salary Sacrifice Proposal submitted by Mr Andrea Cattaneo, Chief Executive Officer & President of the Company, had received 99.98 per cent shareholder approval at its AGM held on March 29, 2018.
