Bankers Petroleum Announces Settlement of Lawsuit with BP Oil

CALGARY, February 23, 2015 - Bankers Petroleum Ltd. (TSX: BNK, AIM: BNK) today
announced that its subsidiary, Bankers Petroleum Albania Ltd. (BPAL), has
reached a full and final settlement with BP Oil International Limited (BPOI) in
connection with the September 2013 lawsuit initiated by BPOI against BPAL at
the High Court of Justice in London, England.  The settlement is for a payment
by BPAL to BPOI of US$16.5 million inclusive of all costs and interest.  The
lawsuit was brought in connection with the termination by BPAL in November 2012
of a long term oil supply contract between BPAL and BPOI and initially sought
damages of up to US$54.2 million for, among other things, the alleged wrongful
termination of such agreement. BPOI's claim had recently been revalued at
US$37.4 million to reflect movements in oil price since September 2013. As part
of the settlement, neither party admitted to wrongful or illegal conduct, and
both parties' claims and counterclaims will be dismissed.
