TransGlobe has received written notice from the Egyptian Government that the Production Sharing Concession (PSC) (100% working interest) which was won in the 2011/2012 EGPC bid round has been ratified into Law. It is expected that the new PSC will be effective following the customary documentation associated with work program guarantees, settlement of signature bonuses and an official signing ceremony which is expected to occur in October 2013. The 195 square kilometre (48,000 acre) South West Gharib PSC is located immediately south of the North West Gharib concession. The company will acquire 3-D seismic over the entire concession prior to drilling exploration wells in the first exploration phase.
