Zephyr Energy plc
("Zephyr" or the "Company")
Result of Broker Option
Zephyr Energy plc (AIM: ZPHR) (OTCQB: ZPHRF), the Rocky Mountain
oil and gas company focused on responsible resource development
from carbon-neutral operations, is pleased to announce the result
of the Broker Option that was announced on 26 January 2022 as part
of a fundraising (the "Fundraising").
The Broker Option is a facility to allow the Company's
Shareholders to participate in the Fundraising on the same terms to
the Placing, and which closed yesterday.
The Company's broker, Turner Pope Investments ("TPI") has
informed the Company that it intends to exercise its Broker Option
in respect of 16,000,000 new Ordinary Shares (the "Broker Option
Shares").
The Broker Option Shares will be issued at the Issue Price
(being 5p per share), resulting in gross proceeds of GBP800,000
being raised. This brings the total amount raised in the
Fundraising under the Placing and Broker Option to GBP12,800,000
(before expenses).
Similar to the Placing, one warrant to subscribe for a new
Ordinary Share at 7.5p per share will be issued for every four
Broker Option Shares (totalling 4,000,000 Investor Warrants) and in
addition, TPI will be issued with warrants to subscribe for
1,066,666 new Ordinary Shares at 7.5p per share, details of which
were announced with the Fundraising.
Admission to AIM
Application will be made for the 16,000,000 Broker Option Shares
(as well as the 173,500,000 Second Placing Shares) to be admitted
to trading on AIM and it is expected that their admission to AIM
will take place on or around 11 February 2022 ("Second Admission").
Like the Second Placing Shares, the issue of the Broker Option
Shares is conditional, inter alia, on the Resolutions being passed
at the Company's General Meeting on 10 February 2022, Second
Admission occurring and the Placing Agreement becoming
unconditional in respect of the Second Placing Shares and not being
terminated in accordance with its terms prior to Second
Admission.
Rule 17
Pursuant to AIM Rule 17, the Company sets out details of the
effect of dilution on the shareholdings of Origin Creek Energy LLC
("OCE") and Colin Harrington, CEO of Zephyr. Rick Grant, the
Chairman of Zephyr, and Colin Harrington are both shareholders and
directors of OCE, and Colin Harrington is indirectly the
controlling shareholder of OCE.

Total voting rights
Following Second Admission, the Company's issued share capital
will consist of 1,560,746,001 ordinary shares, with one voting
right per share. The Company does not hold any ordinary shares in
Treasury. Therefore, the total number of Ordinary Shares and voting
rights in the Company will be 1,560,746,001 from Second Admission.
This figure of 1,560,746,001 ordinary shares may be used by
Shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations
by which they will determine if they are required to notify their
interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of
the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency
Rules.
Capitalised terms used in this announcement have the same
meaning as in the Fundraising announcement of 26 January 2022,
unless otherwise specified.
