Invictus Energy Ltd

Invictus Energy Limited ("Invictus" or "the Company"), advises of the proposed issue of performance rights subject to approval at a shareholders’ meeting and the associated update to the remuneration package of Managing Director, Mr Scott Macmillan and Non-Executive Chairman, Dr Stuart Lake.

The Company is in at an important stage of development with significant opportunities and challenges in both the near and longterm, and the proposed issue seeks to align the efforts of the Directors in seeking to achieve growth of the share price and in the creation of Shareholder value. In addition, the Board Company also believes that incentivising Mr Scott Macmillan and Dr Stuart Lake with Performance Rights is a prudent means of conserving the Company's available cash reserves. The Board Company believes it is important to offer these Performance Rights to continue to attract and maintain highly experienced and qualified Board members in a competitive market.

The Company is proposing, subject to obtaining shareholder approval, to issue up to a total of 11,800,000 Performance Rights to Directors Mr Scott Macmillan and Dr Stuart Lake (“Related Parties”), or their respective nominees, as follows:

Director Class A
Performance Rights
Class B
Performance Rights
TOTAL
Scott Macmillan 3,400,000 3,400,000 6,800,000
Stuart Lake 2,500,000 2,500,000 5,000,000
TOTAL 5,900,000 5,900,000 11,800,000

The issue of the Performance Rights forms a part of the revised remuneration package agreed with each of Mr Macmillan and Dr Lake. The Company intends to release a notice of meeting for the approval of the Performance Rights in due course.

About the Cabora Bassa Project

The Cabora Bassa Project encompasses the Mzarabani Prospect, a multi-TCF and liquids rich conventional gascondensate target, which is potentially the largest, undrilled seismically defined structure onshore Africa. The prospect is defined by a robust dataset acquired by Mobil in the early 1990s that includes seismic, gravity, aeromagnetic and geochemical data.

#Cautionary Statement : The estimated quantities of petroleum that may be potentially recovered by the application of a future development project relate to undiscovered accumulations. These estimates have both an associated risk of discovery and a risk of development. Further exploration, appraisal and evaluation are required to determine the existence of a significant quantity of potentially movable hydrocarbons. Prospective Resource assessments in this release were estimated using probabilistic methods in accordance with SPE-PRMS standards.

The Company is not aware of any new information and that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning prospective resource estimate continue to apply and have not materially changed

*Giant fields are conventional oil or gas fields with a recoverable reserve of 500 MMboe or more as defined by the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG)

*Elephant fields are conventional oil or gas fields with a recoverable reserve of 1 Billion boe (1,000 MMboe) or more as defined by the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG)
