Posted on September 29th, 2026 | Filed under Press Releases

VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 29, 2026 /CNW/ — Africa Energy Corp. (TSXV: AFE) (Nasdaq First North: AEC) (“Africa Energy” or the “Company”) announces that, following the signing of definitive agreements that were previously announced May 29, 2025, the Company, Arostyle Investments (RF) Proprietary Ltd.

Main Street currently has a direct 10% participating interest in Block 11B/12B offshore South Africa. In light of the withdrawal of the remaining joint venture partners (“Withdrawing Parties”) as announced July 29, 2024, and subject to all relevant regulatory approvals, Main Street is entitled to become the holder of 100% of the participating interests in Block 11B/12B. The Company, through wholly-owned subsidiaries, owns 49% of the common shares and 100% of the Class B shares in Main Street. The remaining 51% of the common shares of Main Street are held by Arostyle.

The addenda to the Agreements extend the long stop date from September 30, 2026 to December 31, 2028. In addition, the addenda contemplate that the Withdrawing Parties will first transfer their aggregate 90% participating interests to Main Street, following which the Company will acquire Arostyle’s 51% ownership interest in Main Street, and Main Street will transfer 25% of its participating interest in Block11B/12B to Arostyle. The addenda do not change the ultimate ownership structure of the participating interests in Block 11B/12B and will result in the Company owning 100% of the common shares and 100% of the Class B shares of Main Street. In addition, all loan claims between the Parties will be settled in full. Finally, the Company (through its wholly owned interest in Main Street) will hold a 75% participating interest in Block 11B/12B with Arostyle holding the remaining 25%.

The Agreements are subject to all relevant regulatory approvals being obtained and remain subject to the fulfilment of certain conditions, including the finalization of the assignment agreements between the Parties and the Withdrawing Parties, which will require regulatory transfer approval under section 11 of the Mineral Petroleum Development Resources Act, 2002. Satisfaction of the conditions of the Agreements is now subject to a long stop date of December 31, 2028.
