EXPLANATORY NOTE

The sole purpose of this Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Trillion Energy International Inc. (the “Company”) that was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 29, 2020 (the “Quarterly Report”) is to add this Explanatory Note regarding our reliance on SEC Release No. 34-88465 (the “SEC Order”) issued by the SEC on March 25, 2020, under Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), in connection with the filing of the Quarterly Report. The SEC Order provides conditional relief to public companies that are unable to timely comply with their filing obligations as a result of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) outbreak by extending, subject to the conditions of the SEC Order, the filing deadline by up to 45 days for certain Exchange Act reports due on or before July 1, 2020.

As previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 14, 2020, the Company determined to rely on the relief provided by the SEC Order to delay the filing of the Quarterly Report due to circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

A significant portion of the Company’s business operations are located in Turkey, Bermuda and Canada, including certain of its key personnel responsible for assisting the Company in the preparation of its financial statements and its interim review. As a result of the travel and work restrictions stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is unable to complete the necessary financial statement and interim review that it needs to permit the Company to file a timely and accurate Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for its quarter ended March 31, 2020 by the prescribed date without undue hardship and expense to the Company.

No other changes have been made to the Quarterly Report, except that Part II, Item 6 of the Quarterly Report is also being amended to refer to the updated Exhibit Index that is included herein for the purpose of including abbreviated officer certifications that are being filed herewith. Because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment and this Amendment does not contain or amend any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K, paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 of the certifications have been omitted. Similarly, we are not including the certifications under Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as no financial statements are being filed with this Amendment.

This Form 10-Q/A speaks as of the original filing date of the Quarterly Report and has not been updated to reflect events occurring subsequent to the original filing date.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
