Epsilon Energy Ltd. Updates Its Shares Purchased to Date Under Its Normal Course Issuer Bid

Epsilon Energy Ltd., announced that it had purchased 1,000,000 of its Common Shares through a combination of open market and block trades at an average cost of $0.83 per Common Share between October 1, 2008 and November 7, 2008. Under terms of the Normal Course Issuer Bid approved by the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) on September 29, 2008, Epsilon may purchase up to a total of 2,000,000 of its Common Shares during a period of one year commencing on October 1, 2008.

Epsilon believes that the current market price of its Common Shares does not fully reflect the value of its business and its future business prospects and represents an attractive investment opportunity, and that subsequent purchases under the Normal Course Issuer Bid will enhance long-term value for its remaining shareholders. As such, Epsilon may purchase up to 1,000,000 additional Common Shares remaining under the terms of its Normal Course Issuer Bid, as warranted.

Epsilon is engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas reserves in the Middle East, Africa and North America:
