1 November 2018

This announcement replaces the announcement released at 5.54pm on 26 October 2018, 'New number of shares - Total Voting Rights', correcting the issued share capital of the Company. There is no change to previously disclosed Total Voting Rights.

WENTWORTH RESOURCES PLC
("Wentworth" or the "Company")

New number of shares - Total Voting Rights

Reference is made to the primary insider notification by Wentworth, the Oslo Stock Exchange (OSE: WEN) and AIM (AIM: WEN) listed independent, East Africa-focused oil & gas company, on 2 October 2018 regarding shareholders who had exercised their right to dissent to the re-domicile of Wentworth from Alberta, Canada to Jersey, Channel Islands.

Based on a final counting of the number of shareholders having exercised their right of dissent and the number of shares held by them as of 1 October 2018, the Company is required to acquire 2,329,326 shares of the Company, representing 1.25% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company, from the dissenting shareholders.

The 2,329,326 shares were deemed to have transferred to the Company on 26 October 2018 for cancellation. The Company will issue a new announcement once said shares have been cancelled.

Total Voting Rights

For the purposes of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority, the Board of the Company hereby notifies the market that as at the date of this announcement the Company's issued share capital consists of 186,488,465 issued Ordinary Shares of no par value, all of which are in the same share class ("Ordinary Shares"). The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. As detailed in the 21 August 2018 Management Information Circular, following the deemed transfer on 26 October 2018 the dissenting shareholders no longer hold any voting rights in the Company and, therefore, the total number of Ordinary Shares in the Company with voting rights is 184,159,139. This figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as denominator for the calculations by which they may determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
