The Due Diligence encompasses an evaluation of the legal, accounting, petroleum and fiscal aspects of the Proposed Acquisition. The Company announced on March 28, 2018, that it had until April 30, 2018 to undertake its Due Diligence on the Proposed Acquisition. Zenith can today announce that the Due Diligence is underway and that, in agreement with the vendor, it has extended the completion deadline for the Due Diligence to May 15, 2018.

After completing the Due Diligence, the Company has a period of 15 days to choose to exercise the binding option to complete the Proposed Acquisition (the "Option") for a total consideration of US$6,600,000 (the "Consideration"). The Consideration shall be payable as to 50 per cent., (US$3,300,000), within 7 business days of exercising the Option (the "First Payment"), and the balance, (US$3,300,000), payable by the deadline of August 31, 2018.

The Company will provide an update regarding the progress of the Proposed Acquisition once the Due Diligence has been completed. The Proposed Acquisition remains at an early stage and there can be no guarantee that it will be successfully completed.

In the event that during the Due Diligence the Company finds negative discrepancies greater than 5% of the book values stated in the Proposed Acquisition's financial statements dated February 28, 2018, then the Deposit shall be refunded to Mr Cattaneo. If the Company decides not to exercise the Option for any other reason during the Due Diligence, then Mr Cattaneo will forfeit the Deposit.
