Notes:

1. The "Interim Results" column indicates the financial information which has been extracted from SacOil's reviewed interim results for the six months ended 31 August 2013.

2. The "Adjustments - Gairloch Loans" column indicates the adjustments in respect of the Gairloch Loans (as defined in the Circular). Subsequent to 31 August 2013, the Gairloch Loans incurred further interest charges amounting to R12,863,297. R11,088,966 of this interest is attributable to the Gairloch Novated Loan Agreement (as defined in the Circular) and is split equally between SacOil's wholly-owned subsidiary SacOil 233 Nigeria Limited and EER (as defined in the Circular), and is capitalised to the OPL 233 asset under "exploration and evaluation assets" and the EER loan under "other financial assets", respectively. The movement in "accumulated loss" is a result of the remaining interest expense of R1,774,331 and foreign exchange gains amounting to R9,416,123 on all the Gairloch Loans incurred subsequent to 31 August 2013. These adjustments resulted in a total increase in "Other financial liabilities" of R3,447,714.

3. The "Before the Transactions" column indicates the impact of item 2 above on the "Interim Results" column.

4. The "Pro forma adjustments - Rights Offer" column takes into account the pro forma adjustments in respect of the Rights Offer, namely the issue of 2,111,111,111 SacOil shares ("Rights Offer Shares") for R570,000,000 at the issue price of R0.27 per ordinary share. In this respect, Rights Offer costs of R2,872,661 have been deducted from equity.

5. The pro forma statement of comprehensive income figures are based on the assumption that the Rights Offer was implemented on 1 March 2013 while the statement of financial position figures are based on the assumption that the Rights Offer was implemented on 31 August 2013.

6. The "After the Rights Offer" column indicates the pro forma financial results after taking into account items 1 to 5 above.

7. The "Pro forma adjustments - Specific Issue" column takes into account the issue of 883,449,144 SacOil shares to Gairloch Nominees for R238,531,269 at the issue price of R0.27 per share under the terms of the Gairloch Subscription Agreement (as defined in the Circular). In this respect, Specific Issue costs of R1,202,139 have been deducted from equity.

8. The pro forma statement of comprehensive income figures are based on the assumption that the Specific Issue was implemented on 1 March 2013, while the statement of financial position figures are based on the assumption that the Specific Issue was implemented on 31 August 2013.

9. The "After the Transactions" column indicates the pro forma financial results after taking into account items 1 to 8 above.

10. The "Changes (%)" column is calculated as the difference between the "After the Transactions" column and the "Before the Transactions" column, as a percentage of the "Before the Transactions" column.

11. * The general issue of shares for cash, announced on SENS on 2 October 2013, has not been included in the pro forma financial information as it is considered, by the Company, to be immaterial.
