Explanation of Responses:
(1)  Transatlantic Petroleum Ltd. elected to pay the quarterly dividends due on September 30, 2017 on its 12.0% Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares (Series A Preferred Shares) in its Common Shares, par value $0.10 per share, as permitted by the certificate of designation for the Series A Preferred Shares. West Investment Holdings, LLC (WIH) owns 100,000 Series A Preferred Shares.
(2)  The Common Shares are owned by WIH, an entity owned by West Family Holdings, LLC, an entity that is owned by trusts of which Gary West and Mary West are beneficiaries.
(3)  The original Form 4 filed on October 2, 2017 is amended by this Form 4 amendment to correctly reflect the number of Common Shares paid to WIH.
(4)  The Common Shares were issued at a price of $0.7108 per share, which was equal to the 15-day volume weighted average price (VWAP) through the close of trading of the Common Shares on the NYSE American (or NYSE MKT) on September 13, 2017 (the trading day prior to the record date for such September 30, 2017 dividend).
