ZENITH ENERGY LTD.
("Zenith" or the "Company")
Final Hearings of ICC-2 Arbitration
Zenith Energy Ltd. ("Zenith" or the "Company") (LSE: ZEN; OSE: ZENA; OTC PINK: ZENAF), the listed international energy production and development company, is pleased to confirm that the final hearings of the ICC-2 Arbitration regarding the Sidi El Kilani concession ("SLK Concession") against the Republic of Tunisia ("ICC-2 Arbitration") have now been held.
Background
Zenith's fully owned subsidiary, Canadian North Africa Oil and Gas Limited ("CNAOG") initiated the ICC-2 Arbitration against the Republic of Tunisia, as announced in December 2023, following a series of arbitrary actions and obstructions undertaken by the Republic of Tunisia, leading to the arbitrary termination of the SLK concession.
Inter alia, these included:
· CNAOG's lost production revenue and associated profitability, during a period of high energy prices, from the SLK Concession until its initial expiry in December 2022.
· The volume of crude oil produced from the SLK Concession and allocated to and received by CNAOG upon the completion of the acquisition.
· The value of the 45% interest in the renewal of the SLK Concession, representing a breach of CNAOG's right to renew its previously existing 22.5% interest in SLK, as well as the 22.5% interest held by Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company, which relinquished its interest in the SLK Concession before its initial expiry.
CNAOG has filed claims in the amount of approximately US$130 million following calculations made by third-party experts.
Timeline for Publication of ICC-2 Award
The decision of the ICC Arbitral Tribunal is expected on or around the close of summer 2025.
