IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Schedule TO is a press release
issued by Gran Tierra Energy Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “
Company
”) on June 4, 2019, announcing that
its board of directors has approved an issuer bid (the “
Offer
”) pursuant to which the Company will offer to
purchase for cancellation all of the issued and outstanding 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 (being US$115 million aggregate
principal amount) of Gran Tierra (the “
Convertible Notes
”).
This communication does not constitute an offer to sell or
the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities. The Company has not commenced a tender offer for the Convertible Notes in this
communication.
In connection with the Offer, the Company intends to file
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) an offer to purchase, issuer bid circular and a related letter
of transmittal, containing the terms and conditions of the Offer and instructions for depositing such Convertible Notes, and related
materials on Schedule TO (the “Offer Documents”).
This communication is not intended to be, and is not, a substitute
for such filings or any other documents that the Company may file with the SEC in connection with the Offer. Holders of the Convertible
Notes are urged to read the Offer Documents and its exhibits regarding the Offer when it becomes available, because it will contain
important information that you should consider before making any decision regarding the Offer.
You may obtain a free copy of the Offer Documents and its
exhibits and other related documents filed by the Company with the SEC at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, or from the Company’s
