(TSXV: HPL) ("Horizon" or the "Company") is ‎pleased to report an updated reserve and resource report for the Lachowice gas field located in the Bielsko-Biala concession in Poland The  reserves were acquired by its 100% owned Polish subsidiary companies through the recently awarded Bielsko-Biala and Cieszyn concessions in Poland (which were awarded on November 19 2024 subsequent to the year end of August 31 CEO of the Company commented: "We are excited to now be able to assign the 2P reserve and contingent resource values to the Company based on historical wells which were flow tested at rates up to 9 MMscf/d The 34 BCF 2P reserves with a Net Present Value (discounted at 10%) of US$ 84.5 million provides a robust economic base to the company The additional 163 BCF of risked 2C contingent resources with a Net Present Value (discounted at 10%) of US$ 431 million and risked best estimate prospective resources of 118 BCF provide Horizon with large development upside and an appraisal and development drilling inventory" RESERVES AND RESOURCES ACQUIRED SUBSEQUENT TO THE YEAR END AUGUST 31 The Company did not hold any properties with reserves or resources (in accordance with NI 51-101) the Company was granted the Bielsko-Biala and Cieszyn concessions in Poland.  Consequently the reported reserves and contingent resources are the maiden assets of the Company and their value can be assigned to the Company The effective date of the report is  August 31 Horizon holds the rights to a 100% interest in two conventional oil & natural gas concessions in Poland known as Bielsko-Biala and Cieszyn through two wholly owned Polish subsidiary companies which the Company acquired from San Leon Energy The full details of the acquisition are described in our Annual Financial Statements and Management Discussion and Analysis.  ("APEX") prepared the Reserves and Resource Report with an effective date of August 31 2024).  APEX assigned the Probable Reserves and Contingent and Prospective Resources to the Lachowice field which at 10,561 acres represents approximately 4% of the total lands to be held by Horizon under the concessions (see Table 1 below) The reserves and resources assigned are subject to significant risks Please refer to the Risks section at the end of this press release -Lachowice field (included in the total Bielsko-Biala acreage o 805km2) 3 and 4 below summarize APEX's estimates of Horizon's conventional natural gas reserves and resources as at August 31 with up to 91% methane and 7 bbls/MMcf of condensate The volumes shown are attributable to Horizon's 100% working interest before deduction of any associated royalty burdens.  The economic values presented are shown after deduction of the associated royalty burdens but before any attributable income taxes.  Table 4 summarizes the commodity pricing used in the economic evaluations Any reference in this press release to PIIP contingent resources and prospective resources are not

development.  Lachowice-1 Lachowice-7 and Stryszawa-2K are the primary wells of interest on the field and despite being essentially vertical in their design and utilizing sub-optimal drilling and completion methods for naturally fractured formations respectively.  Each of these wells was drilled and tested with reservoir depths of 2,700-4,000 meters targeting a naturally fractured carbonate reservoir of Middle Devonian age.  The natural gas is sweet Calgary-based Horizon is focused on the appraisal and development of conventional oil & natural ‎gas resources onshore Europe The Management and Board of Horizon consist of oil & natural gas ‎professionals with significant international experience.‎ The reserve and resource estimates contained in this press release have been prepared in accordance with NI 51-101 2024 and prepared by APEX Global Engineering Inc.  The Company held no reserves or reserves at year end but subsequently was granted the Bielsko-Biala and Cieszyn ‎ Concessions on November 19 The reserve and resource estimates of natural gas and natural gas liquids reserves provided in this news release are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves and/or resources will be recovered.  Actual reserves and resources may eventually prove to be greater than the estimates provided herein.  It should not be assumed that the estimates of future net revenues presented herein represent the fair market value of the reserves and/or resources.  There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of natural gas and natural gas liquids reserves and/or resources and the future cash flows attributed to such reserves and/or resources These risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to: (i) the fact that there is no certainty that the zones of interest will exist to the extent estimated or that the zones will be found to have natural gas with characteristics that meet or exceed the minimum criteria in terms of net pay thickness and/or porosity or that the natural gas will be commercially recoverable to the extent estimated; (ii) the fact that there is no certainty that any portion of the probable reserves and contingent and prospective resources will be commercially viable to produce; (iii) the fact that the Company must hire an operations team and executive team in both Calgary and Poland in order to execute on the development plan and whether capacity will be available in the existing main pipeline system at reasonable costs; (vii) the risk that there may not be a drilling rig available to drill the required wells and the risk that if a rig mobilization is required from outside of Poland that the costs may be prohibitive; (ix) risks inherent in the international oil and natural gas industry; * fluctuations in foreign exchange and interest rates; (xi)the number of competitors in the oil and gas industry with greater technical financial and operations resources and staff; (xii) fluctuations in world prices and markets for oil and natural gas due to domestic economic and environmental factors beyond the Company's control;  (xiii) changes in government regulations affecting oil and natural gas operations; (xiv) potential liabilities for pollution or hazards against which the Company cannot adequately insure or which the Company may elect not to insure; (xv) contingencies affecting the classification as reserves versus resources which relate to the following issues as detailed in the COGE Handbook: ownership considerations and economic requirements; (xvi) the fact that there is no certainty that any portion of the prospective resources will be discovered and if discovered there is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of the resources; and (xvii) other factors beyond the Company's control and should not be confused with oil and natural gas reserves Total Petroleum Initially in Place ("PIIP") refers to the total quantity of petroleum that is estimated to exist originally in naturally occurring accumulations It includes the petroleum that exists in known accumulations prior to production and the estimated quantities yet to be discovered in the various leads and prospects identified by seismic and inferred by geology A portion of the PIIP will be recoverable as determined by ultimate recovery factors and the estimated recoverable portion is further classified as Reserves Contingent Resources or Prospective Resources Discovered Petroleum Initially in Place ("Discovered PIIP" or "DPIIP") is the total quantity of Petroleum that is estimated as of the effective date of the Report to be contained in known accumulations prior to production Multiple development projects may be applied to each known accumulation which may be separated vertically into different formations or by area in different pools; each project will recover a portion of the PIIP according to its unique reservoir characteristics The projects will be subdivided into Commercial and Sub-Commercial at the effective date with the estimated recoverable petroleum quantities being classified as Reserves and Contingent Resources Reserves are estimated remaining quantities of oil and natural gas and related substances anticipated to be commercially recoverable from known accumulations (a)         analysis of drilling (b)         the use of established technology; and (c)         specified economic conditions (see the discussion of "Economic Assumptions" below) Reserves are classified according to the degree of certainty associated with the estimates (d)         Proved Reserves are those reserves that can be estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable It is likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the estimated proved reserves (e)         Probable Reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves (f)          Possible Reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than probable reserves It is unlikely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the sum of the estimated proved + probable + possible reserves Company Gross Reserves are the Company's working interest (operating or non-operating) share before deducting royalties and without including any royalty interests of the Company Resources are defined in the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook (COGEH) Volume 1 Contingent Resources are those quantities of petroleum estimated to be potentially recoverable from known accumulations but the applied projects are not yet considered mature enough for commercial development due to one or more contingencies projects for which there are currently no viable markets or where commercial recovery is dependent on technology under development or where evaluation of the accumulation is insufficient to clearly assess commerciality Contingencies may include factors such as economic It is also appropriate to classify as contingent resources the estimated discovered recoverable quantities associated with a project in the early evaluation stage Contingent Resources are further classified in accordance with the level of certainty associated with the estimates and may be sub classified based on project maturity and/or characterized by their economic status Not all technically feasible development plans will be commercial The commercial viability of a development project is dependent on the forecast of fiscal conditions over the life of the project the risk component relating to the likelihood that an accumulation will be commercially developed is referred to as the "chance of development." For contingent resources the chance of commerciality is equal to the chance of development Development Pending are contingencies that are being actively pursued; expect resolution in a reasonable time period; are directly influenced by the developer with both internal approvals and commitment and development timing and; have a high chance of development (>80%) Development on Hold are contingencies with major non-technical contingencies identified; have a reasonable chance of development (>50%); have contingencies that are beyond the control of the developer including but not limited to: external approvals Development Unclarified are contingencies that have not been clearly defined; the project is currently under active evaluation; significant further appraisal may be required; progress is expected in a reasonable time period; chance of development is difficult to assess and could be a big range (20%-80%) Development Not Viable are contingencies that have been identified; the project was evaluated and considered not viable or significant further appraisal may be required; progress is not expected in a reasonable time period and; has a low chance of development (<<50%) Contingent Resources –Development Pending and –Development On Hold are considered economic Contingent Resources –Development Unclarified have economics that are undetermined and Contingent Resources –Development Not Viable are considered sub-economic Prospective Resources are those quantities of petroleum estimated to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations by application of future development projects Prospective resources have both an associated chance of discovery and a chance of development Prospective Resources are further subdivided in accordance with the level of certainty associated with recoverable estimates assuming their discovery and development and may be sub classified based on project maturity Not all exploration projects will result in discoveries The chance that an exploration project will result in the discovery of petroleum is referred to as the "chance of discovery." Thus the chance of commerciality is the product of two risk components — the chance of discovery and the chance of development Estimates of resources always involve uncertainty and the degree of uncertainty can vary widely between accumulations/projects and over the life of a project estimates of resources should generally be quoted as a range according to the level of confidence associated with the estimates An understanding of statistical concepts and terminology is essential to understanding the confidence associated with resources definitions and categories which apply to all categories of resources The range of uncertainty of estimated recoverable volumes may be represented by either deterministic scenarios or by a probability distribution This approach to describing uncertainty may be applied to reserves There may be significant risk that sub commercial and undiscovered accumulations will not achieve commercial production it is useful to consider and identify the range of potentially recoverable quantities independently of such risk The main contingencies identified in the Lachowice Reserves Report are the successful recompletion of existing abandoned wells the expected decline rates and the approval and completion of new development and new re-entries.  Table 6 below outlines the positive and negative factors which may be relevant to the Resource Report assumptions and estimates using Boe's and Mcfe's may be misleading as an indication of value billion cubic feet of natural gas equivalent thousand cubic feet of natural gas equivalent Net Profit Interest payable as part of the acquisition consideration This press release contains forward-looking statements and forward-looking information (collectively "forward-looking information") within the meaning of applicable securities laws relating to the Company's plans and other aspects of our anticipated future operations commodity prices and business opportunities and without limiting the generality of the foregoing this press release contains forward-looking information regarding anticipated netbacks the timing of the remaining regulatory approvals for oil and gas operations in Poland and the current operating plans with respect to the Company's right to assets in Poland as well as the source of funding the Company's capital spending Forward-looking information typically uses words such as "anticipate" "intend" or similar words suggesting future outcomes "could" or "will" be taken or occur in the future The forward-looking information is based on certain key expectations and assumptions made by Horizon's management including expectations and assumptions noted previously in this press release under oil and gas advisories and in addition with respect to prevailing commodity prices which may differ materially from the price forecasts used by Apex and differentials applicable royalty rates and tax laws;

The Elite Men's division finals rounded out an epic weekend for mountain bike racing in Poland. In a session full of close calls and high-risk riding, 27-year-old Loris Vergier from Cagnes-sur-Mer Vergier claimed third place in the tight race with a 02:56.963 finish time "I took a huge chance today and didn't hold back," said Vergier on taking risks toward his third-place finish "I made a couple of mistakes that put me back from the win but that's what you get when you push that far into the limit and to get third is really good going into the next race Also rising to the podium, 28-year-old Amaury Pierron from Brioude claimed fifth place with a finish time of 02:57.596 "It's been three beautiful days here in Poland," said Pierron who is fighting his way back to the top after his injury "The first round in Fort William was filled with nerves I had to find my pace again after making my return [from injury] We decided to go testing before coming here to help clear my head and work on some new setups The rain came and I was having so much fun sliding around and felt even

Most parts of the Czech Republic have been affected by floods but the situation was worst in two northeastern regions where authorities declared a state of emergency, including in the Jeseniky mountains near the Polish border. A number of towns and cities were submerged on Sunday in the regions, with thousands evacuated. Military helicopters joined rescuers on boats in efforts to transport people to safety. Waters were receding from the mountainous areas on Monday, leaving behind destroyed houses and bridges and damaged roads. In most parts of the country, conditions were expected to improve on Monday. Floods moving toward the southeastern Czech Republic inundated the town of Litovel. The Oder River that flows to Poland flooded parts of the city of Ostrava in the Czech Republic, forcing more evacuations on Monday. Authorities in Ostrava, the country's third-largest city, warned against traveling there. Many schools were closed and most people were without hot water and heating. Officials said some 120,000 households were without power Monday morning nationwide. After flooding hit Austria, the Czech Republic, Poland and Romania, it might impact Slovakia and Hungary next as a result of a low-pressure system from northern Italy that has been dumping record rainfall in the region since Thursday.
