This presentation does not constitute an offer to sell any of the securities of the Company. Any offer to sell may only be made in accordance with the terms of the prospectus of the Company filed under applicable securities laws and may not be reproduced in whole or in part or provided to any person. Additional information in respect of the Company’s projects in Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan including location, area, geologic age and lithology, depth, estimated costs and oil and gas marketing information, appears in the Company’s Annual Information Form dated March 30, 2012. Barrels of oil equivalent (“BOEs”) may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of 6 Mcf: 1bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS This presentation contains forward-looking statements that are generally identifiable by terms such as anticipated, believe, budget, intend, estimate, expect, outlook, plan or other similar words. The reader is cautioned that assumptions used in the preparation of such information, although considered reasonable at the time of preparation, may prove to be incorrect.

  5. Why Central Asia? Geopolitical advantages Geological attractiveness

  6. Tethys – The only independent working in three Central Asian Republics • Kazakhstan • Oil & gas production • Exploration upside – potentially significant new oil discovery “Doris” • Tajikistan • Large exploration area with huge potential for oil and gas • Sub-salt potential • Uzbekistan • Producing oilfield plus newly acquired additional field • Exploration MOU for high potential area

  7. Reserves & Resources (NI51-101) Reserves – Gustavson & Associates, Dec 31, 2011 Kazakhstan Resources - Gustavson & Associates, April 30, 2012 Tajikistan Resources – TRACS, 2010 No reserves quoted for Uzbekistan

  8.

  9. Doris Area – discoveries and prospects KBD01 hydrocarbons logged to be tested 2H 2012 Close up of fan system Planned AKD07 - Dyna well • New AKD07 well • Targeting Doris 3P reserves • Targeting large Dyna prospect • Sheet sand • 127 MMbbl mean unrisked potential resources • Targeting deeper Jurassic sand • Planned spud mid-year 2012 • Planned TD 2,600 metres – 50 days Schematic Map of Doris Area

  13. Tajikistan – Targeting Deep Potential – 2008 Programme • Set up of exploration and operations team and collection of a good database • Database from results of previous era exploration that discovered 14 shallow oil and gas fields based often on mapping surface structures • Data for 363 vintage wells • Over 1,000 kmsof vintage seismic lines made accessible to modern computerised mapping • Field surveys to check geological interpretation

  14. Tajikistan – Targeting Deep Potential – 2009 /2010 Programme • No previous long regional seismic lines existed in country • Lines show deep and complex geology and cross old fields tying wells together for the first time as shown on the map • Interpretation significantly increased understanding of the Afghan Tajik basin and its potential

  16. Tajikistan – Targeting Deep Potential – 2012 Programme – detailing seismic data • Integration of seismic, magnetic & gravity data has led to the new mapping of 182 deeper and multi level leads • New Resource Report due June 2012 • To image these better before drilling detailing seismic survey planned for summer 2012 • First Deep Well planned Q1 2013 Possible Seismic Possible Seismic Possible Seismic Possible Seismic

  17. Shallower drilling targets • Oil discovered at East Olimtoi • Kick whilst drilling • 36° API oil flowed • Needs further testing • Oil production recommenced at Beshtentak • Persea exploration well – hydrocarbons logged E Komsomolsk Beshtentak East Olimtoi Persea Aero Mag/Gravity Survey

  18. Uzbekistan • High potential in several oil and gas basins • Relatively underexplored • Tethys is only independent oil and gas company working there • Mixture of oil cash flow with new production projects and potential additional exploration upside • Current projects • North Urtabulak Oilfield – enhanced production • Current gross production ~715 bopd • Chegara Oilfield – contract now signed • Potential projects • High potential exploration areas • MOU signed for negotiation of 10,000 km2Bayterekexploration block in the North Ustyurt basin • Potential for Doris look alikes and other prospects Ustyurt Exploration SA Oil Production Projects
