October 2014 Petromanas Energy Inc. Information Memorandum Petromanas Energy Inc. ("Petromanas" or the "Company") has initiated a process to identify potential strategic alternatives relating to the sale of all or a portion of the world class oil opportunity which it is developing in Albania with its partner, Royal Dutch Shell plc ("Shell"). We contemplate that a successful transaction would result in a corporate sale, combined with a spin-out to existing shareholders of the Company's assets in France and Australia, but other transaction structures will be considered. Petromanas has retained Peters & Co. Limited ("Peters & Co.") as its exclusive financial advisor to assist in this process. Data rooms will open the second week of October 2014 with a bid date to be set in the fourth quarter of 2014. Petromanas Corporate Highlights Rare World Class Oil Opportunity: Petromanas holds a 25% working interest in Blocks 2 and 3 in Albania which cover over 213,000 net acres. The Blocks have underlying prospects ranging from 142 to 233 MMBOE recoverable resource. Strategic Early Entry Opportunity: Targeting high impact, large oil-in-place and under-explored light oil resource in Albania. Exploration and Development: Two sub-thrust prospects quantified by GLJ Petroleum Consultants Ltd. ("GLJ"). Nine existing oil fields on Blocks 2-3 owned by other operators. Albania boasts Europe's largest onshore oilfield, Patos Marinza (5.4 billion barrels OOIP). Analogs: Direct analogs are the Val D'Agri and Tempa Rossa oil fields in Southern Italy. Val D'Agri is by far the most significant producing oil development in Italy, and is being developed by Shell and its partners in multiple stages, with anticipated peak oil production of 100,000 BOE/d. The Tempa Rossa oil field, east of Val D'Agri, is expected to produce at a production plateau of approximately 50,000 BOE/d. Joint Venture Partner: Petromanas' partnership with Shell validates the resource potential of the play, and affords Petromanas the ability to leverage Shell's long-term experience developing analog plays in Italy. Development is Accelerating: Petromanas and Shell are negotiating to secure a second rig to accelerate commercialization of the oil field and proceed to full field development of sustainable long-term production estimated at 40,000 BOE/d. Material Upside: July 2011 resource report estimated (Pmean) UPIIP of 856 and 528 MMBOE and unrisked prospective resources of 233 and 142 MMBOE at Shpirag and Molisht, respectively. An updated resource evaluation by GLJ is expected in October 2014 which will include additional prospects not yet quantified. Stable Operating Environment: Albania is a WTO member, NATO member and a candidate for European Union membership. Favourable Economics: Albania's energy sector features attractive fiscal terms and access to Brent pricing given its strategic location and allowance for crude oil exports.

Albania Overview Country Overview Albania is bordered by Montenegro and Kosovo to the north, Macedonia to the east, Greece to the southeast and the Adriatic and Ionian seas to the west. Capital city: Tirana; currency: Albanian lek; language: Albanian; population: 3,020,209 (July 2014). Albania declared its independence from the Ottoman Empire in 1912, was conquered by Italy in 1939, was occupied by Germany in 1943 and came under communist rule in 1944. As a communist state, Albania allied with the USSR until 1960 and China until 1978. During the early 1990s Albania established a multi-party democracy leading to a period of instability, but has since become a member of NATO, a member of the WTO and is a European Union candidate. Oil & Gas Overview Historically, all petroleum activities in Albania were conducted by Albpetrol (Albania's state owned oil company). Albania held its first and second onshore licensing rounds in 1992 and 1994, respectively. Companies awarded 11 total blocks in the licensing rounds included: Shell, Coparex, INA Naftaplin of Croatia, OMV, Enterprise, Gulf Canada Resources, MOL, Occidental, Lundin Petroleum and Forest Oil International. The first offshore licensing round in Albania occurred in 1990 and resulted in the award of a total of five blocks to Deminex, OMV, Eni, Occidental, Chevron and BHP. In 1997 Albania was engulfed by civil unrest and exploration activity in the country ceased. By the early 2000s a degree of stability had returned and exploration activity resumed. Albania Onshore Blocks In February 2010, Petromanas completed the acquisition of three onshore PSCs in Albania containing six licenses and changed its name from "WWI Resources Ltd." to "Petromanas Energy Inc". By June 2013 Petromanas had farmed-out a 75% interest in Blocks 2 and 3 to Shell. As of 2013, the only foreign companies involved in onshore exploration were Petromanas, Shell, Bankers Petroleum Ltd., Stream Oil & Gas Ltd. and Transoilgroup AG. As of 2013 Albania was a net exporter of oil and produced approximately 24,000 Bbls/d. In January 2014, the country had estimated proved plus probable reserves remaining of 176 million Bbls of oil and 17 Bcf of gas. Regulatory Framework In order to recover resources in Albania, an interested party must typically obtain a Production Sharing Contract ("PSC"). However, it is possible for a party to explore by means of aerial, geophysical, geochemical, paleontological, geological, topographical and seismic surveys through the use of a non-exclusive Reconnaissance Permit. The PSC's initial exploration period is for a period of up to three years including a minimum work program, which can be extended for two additional exploration periods up to a maximum of seven years. When a commercial discovery is made, the operator may extend the agreement for up to 25 years for development and production. At the end of the initial exploration period 25% of the original contract area must be surrendered. A further 25% of the remaining contract area must be surrendered at the end of the second exploration period. At the termination of the exploration periods all remaining acreage not deemed a commercial discovery is relinquished. The responsibility for energy matters in Albania lies with the Ministry of Energy and Industry. Within this Ministry the responsibility for petroleum activities lies with the National Agency for Natural Resources (AKBN). 2
