The Non-Recourse Loan Agreement with Macquarie Bank will be terminated and all remaining obligations extinguished leaving Pryme debt free

Pryme retains the option to fund and own a 5% working interest in any new wells drilled in the Turner Bayou project

Pryme Energy Limited (Pryme or the Company) is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary Pryme Oil and Gas LLC (Pryme LLC) has entered an agreement to sell its interest in the Turner Bayou project to a US publicly listed company which wishes to remain anonymous for commercial reasons (the Purchaser). Pryme LLC retains an option to participate at a 5% working interest level in any future Turner Bayou wells.

The outstanding non-recourse loan amount of US$6.8 million under the Macquarie Bank Limited Non- Recourse Loan Agreement (Macquarie Facility) will be extinguished, and Pryme LLC's obligations under the Macquarie Facility will be released.

Pryme's Managing Director, Justin Pettett, said "this sale leaves Pryme with no debt and provides the

Company with a modest option to participate, entirely at its election, in future Turner Bayou wells."

Mr Pettett continued, "the resolution of the Macquarie Facility allows Pryme to focus entirely on the development of its recently acquired Capitola Oil Project in the Permian Basin, Texas (see announcement dated 11 February). The activities of US exploration and production companies surrounding the Capitola Oil Project, including the US$29 billion Devon Energy Corporation, continue to accelerate with attention being focussed on the conventional oil prospectivity as well as on the exciting Cline Shale play."
