EXTRAORDINARY MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS APPROVES SPIN-OFF OF LUNDIN PETROLEUM'S UK BUSINESS

The Extraordinary Meeting of shareholders of Lundin Petroleum AB (publ) was held on Monday 22 March 2010 in Stockholm.

As previously announced, Lundin Petroleum has agreed to spin-off its UK business into a newly formed company called EnQuest plc ("EnQuest"). EnQuest will acquire Lundin North Sea B.V., which is the holding company for all of Lundin Petroleum's UK oil and gas production, development and exploration assets and operations. In addition, EnQuest has agreed to acquire the UK oil and gas assets of Petrofac Limited ("Petrofac"), a London Stock Exchange-listed company. EnQuest will operate as an independent oil and gas production and development company, initially focused on the UK Continental Shelf. EnQuest has applied for listing of its shares on the London Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ OMX Stockholm exchange.

Lundin Petroleum will receive fifty-five per cent (55%) of the outstanding shares of EnQuest on completion of the sale of the UK business to EnQuest. Lundin Petroleum will then distribute all of its EnQuest shares to Lundin Petroleum shareholders. Following completion of these transactions, Lundin Petroleum shareholders will continue to hold their current shares of Lundin Petroleum and will also receive new shares of EnQuest on an exchange ratio of 1 Lundin Petroleum share to receive 1.3474 EnQuest shares. The shareholders of Petrofac will hold the remaining forty-five per cent (45%) of the outstanding shares of EnQuest.

The Extraordinary Meeting of Shareholders resolved to approve the sale of Lundin North Sea B.V. to EnQuest in exchange for such number of shares of EnQuest as will be equal to fifty-five per cent (55%) of the total outstanding shares of EnQuest, and resolved on a dividend to the effect that all of Lundin Petroleum's shares in EnQuest, corresponding to approximately fifty-five per cent (55%) of the total number of shares in EnQuest, are distributed to the shareholders of Lundin Petroleum, including authorization to the Board to decide upon the record date for the right to receive shares in EnQuest. The Board's proposal regarding remuneration to certain senior management was withdrawn.

It is expected that admission and commencement of unconditional dealings in EnQuest shares on the London Stock Exchange will occur on 6 April 2010, with the commencement of conditional dealings in EnQuest shares on NASDAQ OMX Stockholm to occur on the same day. It is expected that admission and commencement of unconditional dealings in EnQuest shares on NASDAQ OMX Stockholm will occur on 9 April 2010. The Board of Lundin Petroleum is expected to determine the record date for the dividend of EnQuest shares to be 8 April 2010.

The distribution of EnQuest shares to Lundin Petroleum shareholders is expected to occur on 9 April 2010, with the delivery of such EnQuest shares to be as follows: 1 EnQuest share for each 1 Lundin Petroleum share held will be delivered to shareholders on or around 9 April 2010 and 0.3474 EnQuest shares for each 1 Lundin Petroleum share held will be delivered to shareholders on or around 12 April 2010. In the event that a Lundin Petroleum shareholder becomes entitled to a fraction of a share in EnQuest, such fractions of shares in EnQuest will be consolidated into whole shares and sold on NASDAQ OMX Stockholm, with cash proceeds to be delivered to shareholders on or around 16 April 2010.
