PDMR Exercise and Grant of Options

Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - June 19, 2025) - Arrow Exploration Corp. (AIM: AXL) (TSXV: AXL) ("Arrow" or the "Company"), the high-growth operator with a portfolio of assets across key Colombian hydrocarbon basins, announces the exercise of stock options, by certain Directors and Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities (PDMRs) (the "Exercise"). These options were exercised due to reaching their expiration date.

Option Exercise

The Exercise was accepted by the Company on June 17, 2025 and holders elected to use a "cashless" exercise of options. Using this method, which is permissible under the terms of the Company's share option plan, as approved as a resolution by shareholders 27 September 2024, the Company pays the option holder the value of the option (volume weighted average trading price less strike price) from cash reserves. Accordingly, no new shares were issued for the option exercise.

A summary of the options exercised is as follows:

About Arrow Exploration Corp.

Arrow Exploration Corp. (operating in Colombia via a branch of its 100% owned subsidiary Carrao Energy S.A.) is a publicly traded company with a portfolio of premier Colombian oil assets that are underexploited, under-explored and offer high potential growth. The Company's business plan is to expand oil production from some of Colombia's most active basins, including the Llanos, Middle Magdalena Valley (MMV) and Putumayo Basin. The asset base is predominantly operated with high working interests, and the Brent-linked light oil pricing exposure combines with low royalties to yield attractive potential operating margins. By way of a private commercial contract with the recognized interest holder before Ecopetrol S.A., Arrow is entitled to receive 50% of the production from the Tapir block. The formal assignment to the Company is subject to Ecopetrol's consent. Arrow's seasoned team is led by a hands-on executive team supported by an experienced board. Arrow is listed on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange and on TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "AXL".
