On March 26, 2013, Samson Oil & Gas Limited ("Samson" or the "Company") issued a press release announcing a series of informational meetings for holders of its ordinary shares to be held in three cities in Australia concerning its previously announced non-renounceable rights offering (the "Rights Offering"). The release also confirmed the previously disclosed timetable for Australian and New Zealand shareholders holding ordinary shares, which are traded on the Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX"), to participate in the Rights Offering.

Also on March 26, 2013, Samson filed a prospectus (the "Australian Prospectus") with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission and the ASX relating to the Rights Offering for holders of ordinary shares in Australia and New Zealand. A copy of the Australian Prospectus is filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

The foregoing descriptions of the press release and Australian Prospectus are only summaries and are qualified in their entirety by the text of such exhibits.

U.S. holders of ordinary shares and holders of American Depositary Shares, which are traded in the U.S. on the NYSE MKT and are equivalent to twenty ordinary shares, should refer to the preliminary prospectus supplement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2013, for information concerning the Rights Offering.
