Activa Resources AG: fourth horizontal well at OSR-Halliday is best in
field to date

- Initial production rates at 4th OSR-Halliday well exceed 700 BOED
- Further production increase possible
- 5th OSR-Halliday well drilling ahead at approx. 9,000 feet

Bad Homburg, 18th April 2013. Activa Resources AG, an independent oil and
gas company with operational knowhow in the development and efficient
exploitation of oil and natural gas properties, provides initial details of
current drilling activities at its main oil and natural gas project
OSR-Halliday Unit in East Texas.

After successfully completing the 4th horizontal well (96-4H), production
rates exceeding 700 BOE have been recorded within the first days of
testing. The well, located in the southern section of the field, is still
in the early stages of flowing back its load water and could see higher
production rates going forward.

Activa's CEO Leigh A. Hooper adds: 'Based on the results in this early
phase we expect the 4th horizontal to be an excellent well. This well is
producing better than our previous wells at this stage and could be our
most productive well yet. We will be able to determine the potential of the
well in the coming weeks. Our OSR-Halliday asset has the potential for over
50 horizontal Woodbine wells in addition to potential in other targets in
the Eablebine. This latest drilling result represents a further step in
optimising and de-risking the Woodbine and Eaglebine plays'.

The 5th horizontal well (105-5H), located close to the fourth well on the
south side of the field, spudded on April 3rd and is currently drilling
ahead at a depth of 9,000 feet. Drilling operations are expected to be
finished in May. The well will be fracture stimulated shortly thereafter.

Activa has proposed additional locations for consideration to the project
partners for further drilling this year, in accordance with Activa's aim of
drilling three new wells per annum.
