NEWS RELEASE

TSX Venture Exchange Symbol: SNV December 6, 2016

Sonoro Provides Further Updates on Budong Budong License Extension Calgary, Alberta - Sonoro Energy Ltd. ("Sonoro" or "the Company") (TSX-V:SNV) is pleased to report that it has had several further meetings with the government authority SKKMIGAS to propose a 2017 operating and capital budget along with an extension to the Budong Budong License. The Company has subsequently submitted a formal request requesting an extension of two years to the Budong Budong Exploration License. The Company believes this time was lost previously on the License with delays in obtaining land and seismic permits in the Budong Budong area to permit further work between 2013-2016. The Company is hopeful that an extension will be granted which will then allow it to proceed with the drilling of up two appraisal wells as previously described and seismic work.

The Company also announces that it has sold 100% of its share holdings in Sonoro Energy Iraq B.V. which held the Salah ad Din Asphalt License Agreement which has been in Force Majeure since July 2014. Blue Sky Energy Ltd has acquired this interest for future consideration of $4mm based on reaching certain production milestones. With the Company focus and experience being on Indonesia and SE Asia, the Company felt that pursing Iraq would be a challenge and that the Blue Sky Energy Ltd. offer was fair and with their Middle East experience they could revive the project and future value.
