Matra Petroleum Plc

("Matra" or "the Company")

On 23 April 2014 Matra Petroleum Plc, the oil & gas focused Investing Company, announced that the resolution to approve the cancellation of the admission of the Company's ordinary shares to trading on AIM was duly passed.

As previously announced, the Company has set up an off market trading facility, to be available from the delisting date, administered by JP Jenkins ("JPJ") who will, where possible, match trades in the ordinary shares between willing buyers and willing sellers, acting as a central point for negotiation between UK stockbrokers. JPJ states that it is the oldest and largest exchange platform for unlisted companies.

JPJ has informed the Company that a number of stockbrokers have indicated their willingness to help shareholders maintain their unlisted holding in Matra, and, if so required by shareholders, facilitate trading in these shares on JPJ. Therefore any shareholder who requires this service, should contact JPJ directly on the number below or visit http://lmmx.co.uk/2014/04/matra-petroleum-plc-2/ for contact details of these brokers.

Shareholders should be aware that the JPJ matched trade service will not offer the same liquidity as AIM as this service is not an investment exchange, nor a public market, nor is it recognised or designated by the Financial Conduct Authority or any other regulatory authority anywhere in the world. Transactions effected by JPJ will be conducted "off-exchange".
