R&D REFUND BOOSTS BALANCE SHEET

Galilee Energy (ASX:GLL) is pleased to announce that it has completed its R&D application and received a refundable R&D tax offset of $6,121,511 for the 2020/21 financial year.

The R&D Tax Incentive is an Australian Government programme under which eligible companies are entitled to claim a 43.5% refundable offset for eligible expenditure incurred on eligible research and development activities. The incentive received results from the R&D expenditure incurred on the R&D activities undertaken on both the Glenaras Multi Well Pilot (Pilot) and the Water Management Project.

While Galilee was already fully funded for its current activities, this R&D offset further strengthens the Company's cash position and provides additional options for the Company in terms of accelerating activities at the Pilot to enhance de-watering and assist in moving towards the required critical desorption pressure.

This additional funding will also further Galilee's pursuit of future innovation and energy delivery in an environmentally responsible manner. Galilee firmly believes that to strengthen the ongoing support from all stakeholders and customers, it is incumbent on energy companies to demonstrate a capacity and intent to sustainably supply energy with minimal environmental impact.

Our decarbonisation pathway benefits specifically from our natural advantages, namely our Project's low CO2 emissions, our location in one of Australia's best regions for the generation of solar energy, as well as high volumes of low saline water in our coals. This allows us to pursue the use of solar energy to meet our onsite energy requirements as well as utilising our fresh water resources for farming and cropping, with the associated carbon sequestration benefits.

From this platform, Galilee is currently pursuing its transition towards becoming an environmentally sustainable energy provider.
