Block 2A, Kenya: Regional Basins
Simba Energy’s Block 2A is comprised of two highlyprospective hydrocarbon basins; the Mandera and theAnza, each containing working petroleum systems
The Mandera basin: The Tarbaj Oil seep (just north of Block 2A’s northern boundary) confirms the presence of hydrocarbons which suggests the potential for source rocks and reservoirs
The Anza basin margins: The proven “String of Pearls” of discoveries that trends from Africa Oil’s recent Sala-1 discovery 50kms NW, SE through concession’s south-western boundary.

Block 2A: IPDS Passive Seismic Survey (2012)
Simba Energy was first to use IPDS passive seismic technology in Kenya.
Five high ranking target areas identified with IPDS and later confirmed with 2014 FTG survey
9
Airborne Gravity (FTG) Survey (2014)
High resolution airborne Full Tensor Gravity Gradiometry (FTG) carried out by Bell Geospace.Bell’s FTG coverage resulted in more than 7,000 line kms flown over both target areas in the Mandera and Anza basins.Very positive results confirmed two prospects in Mandera (M1 & M2) while also identifying a A1 as a primary target in the Anza basin.

Currently acquiring 500+ line km 2-D seismic over block 2A focusing primarily on the Mandera basin and portion of the Anza basin in order to:
• Determine the first two drilling locations at M1, M3, and possibly secondary targets M2 and A1
• Confirm prospect status at M1 & M3 with potential drilling locations at M2, A1 and if warranted, A4, A5
• Evaluate “String of Pearl” Trends for both basins as identified by (FTG) or Full Tensor Gravity Gradiometry Seismic and (IPDS) or Passive Seismic
• Confirm depths and volume estimates for above and other secondary drilling targets to revise Block 2-A’s resource estimate
• Drill first exploration well 4th Quarter, 2016

Guinea: Blocks 1 & 2 - Highlights
First mover advantage in an underexplored high impact onshorebasin targeting shallow Hydrocarbon reservoirs
Blocks 1 & 2 Guinea exhibit excellent exploration potential !
Onshore blocks 1 & 2 totaling 12,000 km2 within the Bove Basin Surface oil seeps clearly identified Successful geochemical survey
completed in 2013 consisted of 1,550 Oil-seep samples on 500 meter spacing over 29 traverses that covered an extensive portion of the concession. Geochemical results were very
positive identifying six separate & sizeable prospective target areas Extensive FTG survey planned to
commence in Q-4, 2016
15
Guinea Blocks 1 & 2 - Geochemical Survey
In 2013, Actlabs (Ancaster, Ontario) carried out sample testing and mapping of these results using their Soil Gas Hydrocarbon (SGH) analyses.
Test results from Actlabs SGH were very positive and identified six separate & sizeable prospective target areas. (shown in yellow circles on adjacent map)
T1 (700+ kms²):Actlabs’ SGH rates T1 at 5.5 out of a possible 6.0 in predicting the target is related to an oil play.
T2 (+/- 200kms²):With fewer data points than T1, Actlabs’ SGH rates T2 at 4.0 out of a possible 6.0 in predicting T2 is related to an oil play.

Guinea Blocks 1 & 2 – Seep Explosion
Guessore – District De Souka (10.983474N – 13.916766W)This is the location of an explosive blow out and fire several years ago. The force was strong enough to actually create the crevice shown in above photo. The resulting fire was very difficult to put out because hydrocarbons settled into the surrounding sand and kept re-igniting. The heat of the fire altered the outcrop turning it red. There has been no activity since.
19
Guinea: Next Steps
Finalize outstanding interest in Production Sharing Contract (PSC) for Blocks 1 & 2 and convert ownership of PSC from 60% to 100% (completion expected by Q3-Q4, 2016)
Commence pervasive Full Tensor Gravity Gradiometry (FTG) survey designed to provide extensive coverage throughout Blocks 1 & 2 target areas
Positive FTG results will strongly support an immediate 2-D seismic survey which upon completion will be followed by drilling the first exploration well onshore Guinea in early 2017

Liberia - Exploration License NR-001
•2009: Granted 1st onshore license to be issued by Liberian Government
•Area size of 1,366 kms²
•Comprises entire portion of onshore Robert Bassa sedimentary basin, +/-400 kms²
•Confirmed presence of significant seeps covering an area of 125 kms²
•Residual hydrocarbons analysis confirms mature source
Prompted by the Jubilee field discovery offshore Ghana (2007), in 2009 Anadarko begins to discover significant pay zones within Upper Cretaceous on multiple wells offshore Sierra Leone

Liberia – Section A - B Seismic Schematic
AAPG Annual Meeting - REPSOL , Denver, June 7-10, 2009
The Roberts-Bassa basin formed as a failed rift and has onshore and coastal seeps confirmed from mature Oil source. These characteristics in a near shore depositional environment rank as having excellent potential for hydrocarbon-bearing traps.
Simba is targeting Upper Cretaceous as potentially feeding seeps or potential for migration from a mature Oil source.

Prospects in Kenya Block 2A with active 2-D seismic program leading to drilling within next 6 months
Block 2A Kenya, contains two basins in Kenya’s prolific rift valley geology with several leads and two confirmed prospects with Billion+ Barrel Hydrocarbon Potential!
Guinea Blocks 1 & 2 represent very strong exploration upside with a planned next exploration phase comprising of extensive FTG survey ahead of future drill program
