Issue of Shares in lieu of fees to Oilfield International Ltd

Issue of Warrants to Directors

Tower Resources plc (the "Company" or "Tower" (TRP.L, TRP LN)), the AIM listed oil and gas company with its focus on Africa, announces that it has issued 6,320,000 Ordinary shares in the Company (the "Fee Shares") to Oilfield International Ltd (OIL), in lieu of fees to the value of GBP15,800. The Company also announces the following issue of warrants to Directors in lieu of fees.

The Company has issued shares at an effective issue price of 0.25p per share in lieu of fees to OIL, which compiled asset reserves and resources valuation reports for Tower covering the Thali PSC, offshore Cameroon, in November 2018 and March 2020.

Warrants are being issued in lieu of GBP30,000 (in aggregate) of Directors fees to Paula Brancato and Mark Enfield (Non-Executive Directors), and Jeremy Asher (as Chairman) in settlement of fees due for the period from 1 July 2021 to 30 September 2021, to conserve the Company's working capital.

The warrants are exercisable at a strike price of 0.25 pence ("Warrants"), which is a premium of 16% to the closing share price of 0.215 pence per share on 30 June 2021, and are exercisable for a period of 5 years from the date of issue. The Warrants being issued are detailed below:

                  ----------------  ----------------  -----------------  --------------- 
 

*Warrants are held at different prices.

As previously announced, the Directors will consider issuing further warrants in lieu of fees for each calendar quarter based on the closing price of the shares and the warrant valuation on the last day of the previous quarter and will make an election and announce the issue of warrants (if so elected) at the earliest opportunity in each calendar quarter. This election will be made by the Board with each Director taking into consideration the working capital position of the Company.

The Company also announces the issue of 4,947,230 warrants, on the same terms as the Warrants issued to Directors, to Mr Duncan Rushworth in lieu of fees for his work for the Company during the period from 1 July 2021 to 30 September 2021.

Shares in issue

It is expected that admission of the new shares will become effective at 8.00 a.m. on or around 6 July 2021.

Following admission of the shares, the Company's enlarged issued share capital will comprise 1,756,231,416 Ordinary shares of 0.001 pence each with voting rights in the Company. This figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in the interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

Warrants in issue

Following the above issue of Warrants, the total number of Warrants in issue is 790,383,879 equating to 28.3% of the Company's enlarged share capital assuming full exercise of all warrants and share options.
