TAG Oil Ltd. (TSXV: TAO
and OTCQX:
TAOIF) (“
TAG
Oil” or the “
Company”) is pleased to
announce that it has entered into an agreement with Research
Capital Corporation as the lead underwriter and sole bookrunner, on
behalf of a syndicate of underwriters, including Echelon Wealth
Partners Inc., Canaccord Genuity Corp., and Haywood Securities Inc.
(collectively, the “
Underwriters”), to purchase,
as principal on a bought-deal basis, 17,250,000 common shares of
the Company (the “
Common Shares”) at a price of
$0.58 per Common Share for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company
of $10,005,000 (the “
Offering”).
The Company intends to grant the Underwriters an
option, exercisable in whole or in part, at the sole discretion of
the Underwriters, at any time, from time to time, for a period of
30 days from and including the closing of the Offering, to purchase
from the Company up to an additional 15% of the Common Shares sold
under the Offering, on the same terms and conditions of the
Offering to cover over-allotments, if any, and for market
stabilization purposes (the “Over-Allotment
Option”).
The net proceeds of the Offering will be used to
accelerate a multi-well horizontal drilling program of the Abu
Roash “F” reservoir in the Badr Oil Field, located in the Western
Desert of Egypt (with the first horizontal well expected to spud in
early August 2023), pursue potential strategic acquisition
opportunities in Egypt and the broader Middle East and North Africa
region, and for general working capital purposes.
The closing of the Offering is expected to occur
on or about the week of August 21, 2023 (the
“Closing”), or such later or earlier date as the
Underwriters and the Company may determine and is subject to the
Company receiving all necessary regulatory and TSX Venture Exchange
(the “TSX-V”) approvals, including the approval to
list the Common Shares.
The Common Shares will be offered by way of a
short form prospectus to be filed in all provinces of Canada,
except Quebec, pursuant to National Instrument 44-101 – Short Form
Prospectus Distributions and, with the consent of the Company, may
be offered in the United States on a private placement basis
pursuant to an appropriate exemption from the registration
requirements under applicable U.S. law, and outside of Canada and
the United States on a private placement or equivalent basis.

the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities in the United
States or in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or
sale would be unlawful prior to qualification or registration under
the securities laws of such jurisdiction. The securities being

This news release includes certain statements
and information that constitute forward-looking information within

including the approval of the TSX-V.
Statements contained in this release that are
not historical facts are forward-looking statements that involve
various risks and uncertainty affecting the business of TAG Oil.
Such statements can generally, but not always, be identified by
words such as “expects”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “intends”,
“estimates”, “forecasts”, “schedules”, “prepares”, “potential” and
similar expressions, or that events or conditions “will”, “would”,
“may”, “could” or “should” occur. All statements that describe the
Company’s plans relating to operations and potential strategic
opportunities are forward-looking statements under applicable
securities laws. These statements address future events and
conditions and are reliant on assumptions made by the Company’s
management, and so involve inherent risks and uncertainties, as
disclosed in the Company’s periodic filings with Canadian
securities regulators. As a result of these risks and
uncertainties, and the assumptions underlying the forward-looking
information, actual results could materially differ from those
currently projected, and there is no representation by TAG Oil that

Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors

TAG Oil provides no assurance that
forward-looking statements and information will prove to be
accurate, as actual results and future events could differ
materially from those anticipated in such statements or
information. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance
on forward-looking statements or information.
Exploration for hydrocarbons is a speculative
venture necessarily involving substantial risk. The Company’s
future success in exploiting and increasing its current reserve
base will depend on its ability to develop its current properties
and on its ability to discover and acquire properties or prospects
that are capable of commercial production. However, there is no
assurance that the Company’s future exploration and development
efforts will result in the discovery or development of additional
commercial accumulations of oil and natural gas.
