• AIM listed on September 3 2012 with £134 Million Market Cap - Twice the size of any previous AIM IPO in the oil and gas sector - Largest AIM IPO since 2009
• Purely Nigeria Upstream • Focus on production and cash flow but with world class
exploration prospects • Management team based in Nigeria and capable of delivery
- CEO and operational management team based in Nigeria - Excellent track record with Addax Petroleum (investor return > 100 x)
• Initial acquisition of a world class asset, OML 40, from Shell • Growth focused on acquiring undeveloped discovered oil
- Over 800 undeveloped oil discoveries in the Niger Delta
• Exceptionally well positioned in the Nigeria upstream market
• The early development of OML 40 reserves as the cornerstone asset for the company – OML 40 has a portfolio of assets in one licence area
• First production and cash flow expected within 6 months
• Gross production target of over 50,000 bopd within four years and 356 MMbbls of gross oil additional exploration upside
OML 40 Development • Development of an experienced and focused organisation based
upon the core team who demonstrated their capability with Addax Petroleum in Nigeria
Effective Organisation
• Accelerated reserve and production growth through the drill bit, increasing asset, and shareholder value
• Focused technical work including reprocessing of 3D seismic and geo-steering, to optimise exploitation of existing fields and de-risk further appraisal and exploration drilling
Leveraging Technical Expertise
• Growth through low cost, high impact acquisitions focused on West Africa and Nigeria in particular
• Particular focus on acquisitions of proven oil reserves in developed hydrocarbon basins with existing export facilities in place for early production and cash flow
Acquisitions
• Create effective community programmes and establish an interdependency with our host communities through the provision of employment and social amenities
Community Interdependence
Eland at home in Africa
Strategy
55th Oilbarrel Conference Slide 4
• Remaining reserves in Nigeria are over 37 Billion barrels of oil and 187 Tcf of gas
• Large number of licence areas with multiple prospects that have not been drilled
• Huge swathes of low risk acreage
Reserves and resources
• Nigeria is under invested due to the perceived high barriers to entry……..but a growing focus of many
• Small number of competitors…….at this time
Barriers to entry
• Management experience and knowledge of how to work in Nigeria gained over many years
Country Expertise
• Super Majors are divesting
onshore assets
• Opportunities for well funded independents
• High Risk / Low Cost / High Reward

Nigeria Fact Book 1
• Africa’s largest oil producer –onshore, shallow offshore and deep offshore • Number of upstream concessions: 288 - Operational 145 ; Open 143 • Operating companies 49, producing companies 17 • Total number of fields discovered: 1183 fields yet only circa 20% on production • Daily production: currently exceeds 2.7 Million bbls per day • Total reserves: Oil 37.2 Billion bbls, Gas 181 TCF with very significant exploration upside
Market factors • Nigeria has moved to repatriate control of their petroleum assets and legislated that preference
be given to indigenous companies of which many currently lack the technical and financial capability to operate and are therefore looking to trusted partners to provide such capabilities
• Technically, Nigeria is geologically low risk with world class exploration potential • 3D seismic, stacked reservoirs and deviated wells offer a very high chance of success (typically
75-90%) • Thousands of prospects identified in the onshore Niger Delta by 2D and 3D seismic that have
never been drilled due to the richness of the portfolio • Reservoir properties and recovery rates are amongst the best in the world

OML 40 A World Class Asset
55th Oilbarrel Conference Slide 9
• Early production (and cash flow) with significant upside appraisal and exploration opportunities
• Existing production facility and export pipeline with a 30,000 blpd capacity
• Light oil, low GOR and high recovery factors with a strong aquifer drive
• Primary Reservoirs are not deep, are stacked, and can be exploited more effectively with modern well-steering techniques
• The upside comes in the form of monetizing the near field potential and prospects of the block – an ability that the Eland Management team demonstrated with Addax Petroleum
• Reprocessing of the 90’s 3D seismic may well prove to be a "game changer“
• No known militant activity in OML 40
• Eland fully funded for the initial work programme and self funding after the first two new wells brought onto production

reservoirs at the top of the structure - Horizontal wells in the E2 reservoir under
the gas cap
• Strong aquifer drive • High RF > 50% (CPR)

Prospect Inventory Probability of Success (POS) • Nigeria enjoys some of the highest exploration drilling success rates in
the world
• There have been 3,584 exploratory wells drilled in Nigeria but few drilled since the twin advances of 3D seismic technology and deviated (scooper wells), horizontal drilling in the late 1990s, where both technologies have had a material impact on discovery success rates and subsequent production rates
• In the period 1950-1999 the exploration success rate was 65% but this increased to 72% from 2000-2009 and is still increasing today
• State of the art reprocessing of 3D seismic will further increase POS
