VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - June 20, 2013) - Oromin Explorations Ltd. (the "Company" or "Oromin") (News - Market indicators)(OTCBB:OLEPF) acknowledges the announcement made on June 19, 2013 by Teranga Gold Corporation ("Teranga") of its commencement of an unsolicited bid (the "Offer") for all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Oromin that it currently does not own.

The Company is in the process of reviewing and evaluating the Offer with its financial and legal advisors. Oromin has appointed RBC Capital Markets as financial advisor and Miller Thomson LLP as legal advisor to assist in responding to the Offer. The Company has appointed a special committee of the Directors to assist the Board in fulfilling its legal and fiduciary duties in respect of the Offer. The Company has in place a shareholders rights plan, which is designed to protect the interest of all shareholders. The Company will consider all possible alternatives, including any competing offers it may receive, to maximize shareholder value.

Contrary to the representations made by Teranga in its Circular, Oromin has not confirmed to Teranga its interpretation of the OJVG Shareholders Agreement. Oromin has not had any discussions with Teranga regarding the lawsuit commenced by Bendon International Ltd.

The Company recommends that shareholders defer taking any action in respect of the Offer until the Directors of the Company make a recommendation as to the merits of the Offer. Shareholders will be promptly notified of any recommendation by the Directors through a news release and circular in accordance with applicable securities laws.
