Max Petroleum Plc

("Max Petroleum" or the "Company")

Result of General Meeting to approve US$13.8 million Subscription by AGR Energy

Max Petroleum announces that all resolutions proposed at its General Meeting held earlier today relating to the proposed US$13.8 million Subscription by AGR Energy were duly passed.

The Subscription remains conditional upon, inter alia, the following Conditions being satisfied on or before 1 October 2015 (or as extended by the mutual agreement of Max Petroleum and AGR Energy):

   (i)         the Subscription Shares being admitted to trading on AIM; 
   (ii)        the Kazakh Regulatory Approvals being obtained. 

The Company's circular to Shareholders dated 13 August 2015 noted that, as a result of the uncertainty surrounding the Company's financial position, its ordinary shares have been suspended from trading on AIM since 2 March 2015. Pursuant to Rule 41 of the AIM Rules, cancellation of admission of AIM securities will occur where these have been suspended from trading for six months. The Company is working to fulfil all relevant conditions for completion of the Subscription, and otherwise to publish information on its financial position, in order to restore trading and avoid cancellation of its ordinary shares from trading on AIM. A further announcement on this matter will be made as soon as practicable.

There can be no guarantee that the Company's ordinary shares will not be cancelled. In the event that admission of the Company's ordinary shares to trading on AIM is required to be cancelled, further information on the consequences of this will be provided to Shareholders.

Forward-Looking Statements

This announcement contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to a possible subscription by AGR Energy for new Ordinary Shares in Max Petroleum. The words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "project" and similar expressions, among others, generally identify forward-looking statements. Max Petroleum cautions that these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the possibility that the Subscription will not be completed; failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals or required financing or to satisfy any of the other conditions to the Subscription; adverse effects on the market price of the Ordinary Shares and on Max Petroleum's operating results because of a failure to complete the Subscription; failure to realise the expected benefits of the Subscription; negative effects relating to the announcement of the Subscription or any further announcements relating to the Subscription or the completion of the Subscription on the market price of the Ordinary Shares; significant transaction costs and/or unknown liabilities; general economic and business conditions that affect Max Petroleum following the completion of the Subscription; changes in global, political, economic, business, competitive, market and regulatory forces, future exchange and interest rates; changes in tax laws, regulations, rates and policies; future business combinations or disposals and competitive developments. These forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions and assessments made by Max Petroleum in light of its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, business strategies, operating environment, future developments and other factors it believes appropriate. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future. The factors described in the context of such forward-looking statements in this announcement could cause Max Petroleum's plans with respect to the Subscription, actual results, performance or achievements, industry results and developments to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements. Although it is believed that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, no assurance can be given that such expectations will prove to have been correct and persons reading this announcement are therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only as at the date of this announcement. Max Petroleum undertakes no obligation to release publicly any revisions to forward-looking statements as a result of subsequent events or developments, except as required by law or regulation.
