FEC Reports on FEP

Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - April 21, 2015) - FEC RESOURCES INC. (OTC PINK: FECOF) ("FEC") wishes to advise shareholders that it has noted the following announcement made by Forum Energy PLC. ("FEP") on April 17, 2015.

"Forum Energy plc

("Forum Energy" or the "Company")

Share Price Movement, Possible Cancellation of Admission and Possible Offer to Minorities

The board of Forum Energy (the "Board") notes the recent movement in the Company's share price.

Following the Company's announcement on 2 March 2015 in relation to the decision by the Philippine Department of Energy to grant a force majeure on Service Contract 72, the Board is considering applying for the cancellation of admission to AIM of the Company's ordinary shares ("Shares") ("Cancellation"), which would require a shareholder resolution at the Company's forthcoming AGM in June.

The Company has been exploring options to allow its minority shareholders the ability to trade out of their Shares prior to the Cancellation taking effect. As the Company is unable to make a tender offer for its Shares due to having negative reserves, it has explored other alternatives. It is currently in discussions with Philex Petroleum Corporation ("Philex"), which has an interest in approximately 60.57% of Forum Energy (including through Philex's subsidiary, FEC Resources Inc, ("FEC") and FEC's nominee, Ferlim Nominees Limited), regarding Philex potentially making an offer to minority shareholders to acquire their Shares for cash prior to the Cancellation taking effect so that shareholders have the option of selling their Shares rather than retaining shares in an unlisted company.

Philex is currently considering whether such an offer will be made and there is no certainty that such an offer will be made. However, Philex has indicated to the Company that, were such an offer to be made, Philex would offer minority shareholders cash consideration of 20 pence per Share.

This announcement has been made with the consent of Philex.

This is an announcement falling under Rule 2.4 of the Code. It does not constitute an announcement of a firm intention to make an offer under Rule 2.7 of the Code.

For the purposes of Rule 2.5(a) of the Code, Philex reserves the right to make an offer for the Shares at less than 20 pence per Share in cash with the agreement or recommendation of the Board of the Company.

In accordance with Rule 2.6(a) of the Code, Philex is required, by not later than 5.00 p.m. on 15 May 2015, either to announce a firm intention to make an offer to the minority shareholders in the Company or announce that it does not intend to make such an offer, in which case the announcement will be treated as a statement to which Rule 2.8 of the Code applies. This deadline can be extended with the consent of the Panel in accordance with Rule 2.6(c) of the Code.

A further announcement will be made in due course, as appropriate.

A copy of this announcement will be available on the Company's website at www.forumenergyplc.com. The content of the website referred to in this announcement is not incorporated into and does not form part of this announcement.
