CALGARY, ALBERTA – May 15, 2020 Pieridae Energy Limited (Pieridae or the Company) (TSXV: PEA) issued the following statement from CEO Alfred Sorensen with respect to the Alberta Energy Regulator’s (“AER”) decision to deny the application to transfer licences for Shell’s Foothills Assets to Pieridae: “We are disappointed by the AER’s decision regarding the transfer of licences for the Foothills Assets. The decision has nothing to do with Pieridae’s financial position nor its ability to clean up certain assets. The issue for denial was the fact that there is no precedent for splitting a licence or no ability under the current legislation to do so. This issue only applies to the Waterton and Jumping Pound gas plants.
