             Magnolia Petroleum Plc ('Magnolia' or 'the Company') 
 
                Placing, Issue of Equity and Grant of Warrants 
 
Magnolia Petroleum Plc, the AIM quoted US onshore focused oil and gas 
exploration and production company, is pleased to announce that it has raised GBP 
225,000 via the issue of 225,000,000 new ordinary shares (the 'Placing Shares') 
in the Company, at a price of 0.1 pence per share (the 'Placing'), and the 
grant of 225,000,000 warrants, exercisable for two years at a price of 0.15p 
per share. The Placing was completed through the Company's broker Cornhill 
Capital Limited.  The proceeds of the Placing will be used to fund current 
drilling commitments on its acreage in proven US onshore hydrocarbon 
formations, such as the Woodford and Mississippi Lime in Oklahoma. 
 
Issue of Equity 
 
The Placing Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's 
existing issued ordinary shares and will be equivalent to 12.8 per cent of the 
enlarged issued share capital. Application has been made for the admission of 
the Placing Shares to trading on AIM and it is expected that admission will 
occur and that dealings will commence at 8.00 a.m. on or around 1 November 
2016. The Placing is conditional, inter alia, on Admission becoming effective. 
 
For the purposes of the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and 
Transparency Rules, the Company announces that following the issue of the 
Placing Shares, the Company will have 1,751,458,563 Ordinary Shares in issue 
('Enlarged Share Capital'). 
 
The Company has no Ordinary Shares held in treasury. The total number of voting 
rights in the Company will therefore be 1,751,458,563. 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 their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's 
Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

information stipulated under the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014.
