Further Information on theFundraising

The Fundraising comprises a placing of 11,406,845 new Common Shares (the "Placing Shares"), via Stifel Nicolaus Europe Limited and Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG, (together, the "Joint Bookrunners") and a subscription by Africa Oil Corp ("AOC"), a substantial shareholder in the Company, which has invested US$5 million (£3.8 million, CAD6.6 million) to subscribe for 4,752,850 new Common Shares (the "Subscription Shares" and, together with the Placing Shares, the "Issue Shares") via Pareto Securities Limited, representing 29.4 per cent. of the total Fundraising amount. Accordingly, following completion of the Fundraising, AOC will be interested in 33,952,851 Common Shares, representing approximately 18.8 per cent. of the Company's enlarged issued share capital.

The Issue Price represents a discount of approximately 4.19 per cent. to the closing mid-market price of 83.5 pence on AIM on 3 April 2019 (being the latest practicable business day prior to the date of this announcement).

The Issue Shares will be freely transferable outside of Canada, however these shares are subject to a four-month and one day restricted hold period in Canada (beginning on 9 April 2019) which will prevent the Issue Shares from being resold in Canada, through a Canadian exchange or otherwise, during the restricted period without an exemption from the Canadian prospectus requirement.

Use of Proceeds

The net proceeds from the Fundraising will be used to fund Eco's share of up to four potential new wells, in addition to the committed Jethro and Joe wells scheduled to drill in 2019, as well as for general corporate purposes.

Application to trading on AIM

The Fundraising is conditional on approval by the TSX Venture Exchange and admission of the Issue Shares to trading on AIM ("Admission"). Following Admission, the Issue Shares will represent, in aggregate, approximately 8.95 per cent. of the Company's enlarged issued share capital. Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the Issue Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and it is expected that Admission will become effective and that dealings in the Issue Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 9 April 2019.

Following the issue of the Issue Shares, the Company's total issued share capital will consist of 180,565,225 Common Shares with voting rights. The Company does not hold any Common Shares in treasury and accordingly there are no voting rights in respect of any treasury shares. The Issue Shares will be fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's existing Common Shares.

Related Party Transaction

As AOC is a substantial shareholder in the Company as defined under the AIM Rules and in light of the quantum of its subscription, its participation in the Fundraising is considered to be a related party transaction pursuant to Rule 13 of the AIM Rules for Companies. Accordingly, the independent directors, being all directors of Eco other than Keith Hill, who is President and CEO of AOC, having consulted with the Company's Nominated Adviser, Strand Hanson Limited, consider AOC's participation in the Fundraising to be fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.

Notesto editors

Eco Atlantic is a TSX-V and AIM listed Oil & Gas exploration and production Company with interests in Guyana and Namibia where significant oil discoveries have been made.

The Group aims to deliver material value for its stakeholders through oil exploration, appraisal and development activities in stable emerging markets, in partnership with major oil companies, including Tullow, Total and Azinam.

In Guyana, Eco Guyana holds a 15 per cent. working interest alongside Total (25 per cent.) and Tullow Oil (60 per cent.) in the 1,800 km² Orinduik Block in the shallow water of the prospective Suriname-Guyana basin. The Orinduik Block is adjacent and updip to the deep-water Liza Field and Snoek, Payara, Pacora, Turbot, Longtail and Hammerhead discoveries, recently made by ExxonMobil and Hess Corporation. The more recent discovery by ExxonMobil and Hess Corporation, Pluma-1, increased the estimate of recoverable resources for the Stabroek Block to more than 5 billion barrels of oil equivalent, and the latest discoveries at Tilapia-1 and Haimara-1 are expected to further add to that estimate.

In Namibia, the Company holds interests in four offshore petroleum licences totalling approximately 22,500km with over 2.3 billion barrels of prospective P50 resources in the Walvis and Lüderitz Basins. These four licences, Cooper, Guy, Sharon and Tamar are being developed alongside partners Azinam and NAMCOR. Eco has been granted a drilling permit on its Cooper Block (Operator).

Placing of Common Shares

Placees are referred to these terms and conditions and this announcement containing details of, inter alia, the Placing. These terms and conditions and this announcement have been prepared and issued by the Company, and are the sole responsibility of the Company.

The new Common Shares issued under the Placing, when issued and fully paid, will be identical to, and rank pari passu with, the existing Common Shares, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid on the existing Common Shares after their admission to trading on AIM ("Admission").

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the Placing Shares to be issued under the Placing to be admitted to trading on AIM.

Subject to the conditions below being satisfied, it is expected that Admission of the Placing Shares will become effective on or around 9 April 2019. It is expected that dealings for normal settlement in the Placing Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on the same day.

Participation in, and principal termsof, the Placing

Stifel and Berenberg are arranging the Placing severally and not jointly or jointly and severally as agents for and on behalf of the Company. Participation in the Placing will only be available to Placees who may lawfully be, and are, invited to participate by Stifel and Berenberg.

Stifel and Berenberg will determine in their absolute discretion the extent of each Placee's participation in the Placing, which will not necessarily be the same for each Placee and this will be confirmed orally by Stifel and Berenberg as agents of the Company ("Confirmation"). No element of the Placing will be underwritten. Confirmation will constitute an irrevocable legally binding commitment upon that person (who will at that point become a Placee) to subscribe for the number of Placing Shares allocated to it at the Placing Price on the terms and conditions set out herein (a copy of the terms and conditions having been provided to the Placee prior to or at the same time as such oral confirmation) and in accordance with the Company's constitution. For the avoidance of doubt, the Confirmation constitutes each Placee's irrevocable legally binding agreement, subject to the Placing Agreement not having been terminated, to pay the aggregate settlement amount for the Placing Shares to be subscribed for by that Placee regardless of the total number of Placing Shares (if any) subscribed for by any other investor(s).

Stifel and Berenberg reserve the right to scale back the number of Placing Shares to be subscribed by any Placee in the event of an oversubscription under the Placing. Stifel and Berenberg also reserve the right not to accept offers for Placing Shares or to accept such offers in part rather than in whole.

Each Placee will be required to pay to Stifel or Berenberg (as applicable), on the Company's behalf, the Placing Price for each Placing Share agreed to be acquired by it under the Placing in accordance with the terms set out herein. Each Placee's obligation to acquire and pay for Placing Shares under the Placing will be owed to Stifel or Berenberg and the Company. Each Placee has an immediate, separate, irrevocable and binding obligation, owed to Stifel or Berenberg, to pay to them (or as they may direct) in cleared funds an amount equal to the product of the Placing Price and the number of Placing Shares such Placee has agreed to subscribe for. Each Placee will be deemed to have read and understood these terms and conditions in their entirety, to the participating in the Placing upon these terms and conditions, and to be providing the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgements and undertakings, in each case as contained herein. To the fullest extent permitted by law and applicable Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") rules (the "FCA Rules"), neither (i) Stifel or Berenberg, (ii) any of their respective directors, officers, employees or consultants, or (iii) to the extent not contained within (i) or (ii), any person connected with Stifel or Berenberg as defined in the FCA Rules ((i), (ii) and (iii) being together "affiliates" and individually an "affiliate"), shall have any liability to Placees or to any person other than the Company in respect of the Placing.

Irrespective of the time at which a Placee's participation in the Placing is confirmed, settlement for all Placing Shares to be acquired pursuant to the Placing will be required to be made at the same time, on the basis explained below under 'Registration and Settlement'.

Completion of the Placing will be subject to the fulfilment of the conditions referred to below under 'Conditions of the Placing' and to the Placing not being terminated on the basis referred to below under 'Termination of the Placing Agreement'. In the event that the Placing Agreement does not otherwise become unconditional in any respect or is terminated, the Placing will not proceed and all funds delivered by the Placee to Stifel or Berenberg in respect of the Placee's participation will be returned to the Placee at the Placee's risk without interest.

By participating in the Placing, each Placee agrees that its rights and obligations in respect of the Placing will terminate only in the circumstances described below and will not otherwise be capable of rescission or termination by the Placee.

By participating in the Placing, each Placee is deemed to have read and understood this Announcement, including these terms and conditions, in their entirety and to be making such offer on the terms and conditions, and to be providing the representations, warranties, acknowledgements, and undertakings contained herein.

To the fullest extent permissible by law, neither the Company, Stifel, Berenberg nor any of their affiliates shall have any liability to Placees (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise). In particular, neither Stifel nor Berenberg nor any of their affiliates shall have any liability (including to the extent permissible by law, any fiduciary duties) in respect of Stifel's or Berenberg's conduct in effecting the Placing as Stifel, Berenberg and the Company may agree.

Conditions of the Placing

The obligations of Stifel and Berenberg under the Placing Agreement in respect of the Placing Shares are conditional on, amongst other things:

(a) the Company having complied with its obligations under the Placing Agreement (to the extent that such obligations fall to be performed prior to Admission); and

(b) Admission having occurred not later than 8.00 a.m. on 9 April 2019 or such later date as the Company, Stifel and Berenberg may agree, but in any event not later than 8.00 a.m. on 23 April 2019.

If (i) any of the conditions contained in the Placing Agreement in relation to the Placing Shares are not fulfilled or waived by Stifel and Berenberg by the respective time or date where specified, (ii) any of such conditions becomes incapable of being fulfilled or (iii) the Placing Agreement is terminated in the circumstances specified below, the Placing will not proceed and the Placee's rights and obligations hereunder in relation to the Placing Shares shall cease and terminate at such time and each Placee agrees that no claim can be made by the Placee in respect thereof.

Stifel and Berenberg at their discretion and upon such terms as they think fit, may waive compliance by the Company with the whole or any part of any of the Company's obligations in relation to the conditions in the Placing Agreement. Any such extension or waiver will not affect Placees' commitments as set out in this Announcement.

None of Stifel, Berenberg or the Company nor any other person shall have any liability to any Placee (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise) in respect of any decision they may make as to whether or not to waive or to extend the time and/or the date for the satisfaction of any condition to the Placing nor for any decision they may make as to the satisfaction of any condition or in respect of the Placing generally, and by participating in the Placing each Placee agrees that any such decision is within the absolute discretion of Stifel or Berenberg.

Termination of the Placing Agreement

Each of Stifel and Berenberg are entitled at any time before Admission, to terminate the Placing Agreement in relation to its obligations in respect of the Placing Shares by giving notice to the Company if, amongst other things:

(a) the Company fails, in any material respect, to comply with any of its obligations under the Placing Agreement; or

(b) it comes to the notice of Stifel or Berenberg that any statement contained in this announcement was untrue, incorrect or misleading at the date of this announcement or has become untrue, incorrect or misleading in each case in any respect which Stifel or Berenberg considers to be material in the context of the Placing and/or Admission or that any matter which Stifel or Berenberg considers to be material in the context of the Placing and/or Admission has arisen which would, if the Placing and/or Admission were made at that time, constitute a material omission therefrom; or

(c) any of the warranties given by the Company in the Placing Agreement has ceased to be true and accurate in any respect which Stifel or Berenberg considers to be material in the context of the Placing and/or Admission by reference to the facts subsisting at the time when notice to terminate is given; or

Registration and Settlement

Settlement of transactions in the Placing Shares following Admission of the Placing Shares will take place through depositary interests ("DIs") within the CREST system, subject to certain exceptions. Stifel, Berenberg and the Company reserve the right to require settlement for, and delivery of, the Placing Shares to Placees by such other means that they deem necessary if delivery or settlement of DIs is not possible within the CREST system within the timetable set out in this announcement or would not be consistent with the regulatory requirements in the Placee's jurisdiction. Each Placee will be deemed to agree that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed in accordance with either the standing CREST or certificated settlement instructions which they have in place with Stifel and Berenberg.

Settlement for the Placing will be on a T+3 and delivery versus payment basis and settlement is expected to take place on 9 April 2019. Interest is chargeable daily on payments to the extent that value is received after the due date from Placees at the rate of 2 percentage points above prevailing LIBOR. Each Placee is deemed to agree that if it does not comply with these obligations, Stifel and Berenberg may sell any or all of the Placing Shares allocated to it on its behalf and retain from the proceeds, for its own account and benefit, an amount equal to the aggregate amount owed by the Placee plus any interest due. By communicating a bid for Placing Shares, each Placee confers on Stifel and Berenberg all such authorities and powers necessary to carry out any such sale and agrees to ratify and confirm all actions which Stifel and Berenberg lawfully take in pursuance of such sale. The relevant Placee will, however, remain liable for any shortfall below the aggregate amount owed by it and may be required to bear any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax (together with any interest or penalties) which may arise upon any transaction in the Placing Shares on such Placee's behalf.
