Faroe Petroleum plc
("Faroe Petroleum" or the "Company")
Exercise of share options, Issue of Equity, Notification of
Directors' interests and Total Voting Rights
The Board of Faroe (the "Board", "we") notes the announcement by
DNO ASA ("DNO") made on 11 January 2019 that it now owns or
controls shares representing approximately 63.32 per cent of the
Company's total issued share capital.
This has triggered the change in control provisions under the
Faroe Petroleum Incentive Plan ("FPIP"), the Faroe Petroleum Co-
Investment Plan ("FPCIP") and the Co-Investment Plan ("CIP) and,
following confirmation from the Company's remuneration advisers
that the various awards have met the associated performance tests,
a total of 25,809,863 nil cost options over ordinary shares of 10
pence each in the share capital of the Company (the "New Ordinary
Shares") have now vested and have been exercised by plan
participants including the Executive Directors. The resultant New
Ordinary Shares have been issued to the Faroe Petroleum Employee
Benefit Trust (the "EBT") who will assent those shares into the
Offer as directed by the underlying plan participants.
The Executive Directors have exercised the following nil cost
options and have directed the EBT to assent the resultant New
Ordinary Shares into the Offer. The Executive Directors have also
assented their other existing shareholdings into the Offer.
In addition, as particularised below, the company's
Non-Executive Directors have also assented their shareholdings into
the Offer:

Issue of Equity and Total Voting Rights
The EBT currently holds 2,757,088 ordinary shares and so Faroe
Petroleum has issued a further total of 23,052,775 New Ordinary
Shares to satisfy the exercise of share options. The New Ordinary
Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing
issued ordinary shares. Application has been made for the New
Ordinary Shares to be admitted to AIM.
Following the issue of 23,052,775 New Ordinary Shares the
Company's enlarged issued share capital will be 395,942,468
ordinary shares. The Company does not hold any ordinary shares in
treasury and therefore the total number of voting rights in the
Company is 395,942,468.
Shareholders may use this figure as the denominator for the
calculations by which they will determine if they are required to
notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the
share capital of the Company under the FSA's Disclosure and
Transparency Rules.
