On April 22, 2015, CAMAC Energy Inc. (the “Company”) filed an Amendment to the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect a six-to-one reverse stock split of the Company's common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Certificate of Amendment provides that the Reverse Stock Split became effective as of 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on April 22, 2015 (the “Effective Time”), at which time every six shares of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock were automatically combined into one issued and outstanding share of the Company's common stock, without any change in the par value per share. The Certificate of Amendment also reduces the authorized number of shares from 2,500,000,000 to 416,666,667 shares. No fractional shares will be issued following the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who would otherwise have been entitled to a fraction of one share of the Company’s common stock as a result of the Reverse Stock Split will instead receive an amount in cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on April 22, 2015, as adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split.

On April 22, 2015, the Company changed its legal corporate name to “Erin Energy Corporation” from “CAMAC Energy Inc.” (the “Name Change”). The Name Change was effected pursuant to Section 242 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and reflected in the Certificate of Amendment.

Trading of the Company's common stock will cease on the NYSE MKT under the ticker symbol “CAK” and the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (the “JSE”) under the ticker symbol “CME” at the close of trading on April 22, 2015. On April 23, 2015, trading of the Company's common stock will commence on each of the NYSE MKT and the JSE under the ticker symbol “ERN” on a Reverse Stock Split-adjusted basis. The new CUSIP number for the Company's common stock following the Reverse Stock Split is 295625 107.

A copy of the Certificate of Amendment to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split and the Name Change is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
