Lansdowne Oil & Gas plc

("Lansdowne" or the "Company")

Update on Energy Charter Treaty Claim

As announced in January, in light of the Irish Government's refusal to engage in worthwhile discussions, the Company is focused upon progressing its Energy Charter Treaty ("ECT") claim against Ireland following the refusal to award a Lease Undertaking for the Barryroe oil and gas field ("Barryroe").

Given the lack of engagement or any ability to have a respectful and frank conversation with the Irish Government, the Company believes it now has no alternative other than to pursue vigorously its ECT claim.
