   Court Ruling in Favour of Tethys and Unblocking of Bank Accounts 
 
   GRAND CAYMAN, CAYMAN ISLANDS - Tethys Petroleum Limited ("Tethys" or the 
"Company") today announces that on January 25, 2017 the Almaty City 
Court found in favour of Tethys' wholly owned subsidiary, Tethys Aral 
Gas LLP ("TAG"), in rejecting the appeal of Eurasia Gas Group LLP 
("EGG") against the previous court ruling of December 26, 2016, which 
also found in favour of TAG. 
 
   As a result of EGG's claim against TAG, restrictions have been in place 
over TAG's bank accounts pending the hearing of EGG's appeal. Following 
the rejection of EGG's appeal, TAG applied to the court to have these 
restrictions removed which the court has approved and which have now 
been implemented. TAG can now operate its bank accounts normally and has 
full and unrestricted access to its bank accounts.
