PRELIMINARY STATEMENT





TransGlobe Energy Corporation (the “Company” or the “Registrant”) is an Alberta corporation and a “foreign private issuer” as defined in Rule 3b-4 of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as promulgated under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  The Company is therefore eligible to prepare and file this annual report on Form 40-F, and to present the disclosures herein primarily in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements, which differ in certain material respects from those which the SEC requires of United States companies.


For example, the Company has prepared its financial statements, which are included as Exhibit 99.2 to this Annual Report on Form 40-F, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and such statements are not in many respects comparable to financial statements of United States companies.


Similarly, the production information and reserve estimates included in the accompanying Annual Information Form (including the Schedules thereto), found at Exhibit 99.1 of this Annual Report on 40-F, have been prepared in accordance with Canadian practices, and specifically in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 51-101. These practices are different from the practices used to report production and to estimate reserves in reports and other materials filed with the SEC by United States companies.


As a “foreign private issuer” the Company is also exempt from certain proxy-related requirements found in Sections 14(a), 14(b), 14(c),  and 14(f) of the Exchange Act, and the insider reporting, “short swing profit” and short sale provisions found in Section 16 thereof are not applicable to the Company's common shares.








FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS


This annual information form (the " Annual Information Form ") may include certain statements deemed to be "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of applicable Canadian and United States securities laws.  These statements relate to future events or the Company's future performance.  All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as "seek", "may", "will", "should", "expect", "plan", "anticipate", "continue", "believe", "estimate", "predict", "project", "potential", "targeting", "intend", "could", "might", "continue", "should" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology.  These statements are only predictions.  In addition, this Annual Information Form may contain forward-looking statements attributed to third-party industry sources.  These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements.  The Company believes the expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this Annual Information Form should not be unduly relied upon.


Undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements, as there can be no assurance that the plans, intentions or expectations upon which they are based will occur.  By its nature, forward-looking information involves numerous assumptions, known and unknown risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, that contribute to the possibility that the predictions, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking statements will not occur and may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements in this Annual Information Form include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to:

Statements relating to "reserves" or "resources" are deemed to be forward-looking statements, as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions that some or all of the resources and reserves described can be profitably produced in the future.  Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive.  The forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Information Form and certain documents incorporated by reference herein are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement.


Although the forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Information Form are based upon assumptions which management of the Company believes to be reasonable, the Company cannot assure investors that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements.  With respect to forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Information Form, the Company has made assumptions regarding: current commodity prices and royalty regimes; availability of skilled labour; timing and amount of capital expenditures; future exchange rates; the price of oil and gas; the impact of increasing competition; conditions in general economic and financial markets; availability of drilling and related equipment; effects of regulation by governmental agencies; royalty rates; future operating costs; that the Company will have sufficient cash flow, debt or equity sources or other financial resources required to fund its capital and operating expenditures and requirements as needed; that the Company's conduct and results of operations will be consistent with its expectations; that the Company will have the ability to develop the Company's oil and gas properties in the manner currently contemplated; current or, where applicable, proposed assumed industry conditions, laws and regulations will continue in effect or as anticipated as described herein; the estimates of the Company's reserves volumes and the assumptions related thereto (including commodity prices and development costs) are accurate in all material respects; and other matters.


Actual operational and financial results may differ materially from TransGlobe's expectations contained in the forward-looking statements as a result of various risk factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. These risk factors include, but are not limited to:

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


After evaluating the effectiveness of the Company's "disclosure controls and procedures" as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company have concluded that, as of the end of the Company’s fiscal year covered by this Annual Report on Form 40-F, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.





MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING


Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.


Management recognizes that effective internal control over financial reporting may nonetheless not prevent or detect all possible misstatements or frauds. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.


Management has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 based on the framework in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2016, the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting.





CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING


During the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 40-F, there was no change that occurred in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(d) that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.





AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT


The Company’s Board of Directors has determined that it has at least one audit committee financial expert serving on its Audit Committee. Fred J. Dyment has been determined by the Company’s Board of Directors to meet the “audit committee financial expert” criteria prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and is an “independent director”, as that term is defined under the listing standards applicable to the Company contained in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Stock Market Rules. The SEC has indicated that the designation of Mr. Dyment as an audit committee financial expert does not make him an “expert” for any purpose, impose any duties, obligations or liability on him that are greater than those imposed on members of the Audit Committee and Board of Directors who do not carry this designation, or affect the duties, obligations or liability of any other member of the Audit Committee.





CODE OF ETHICS FOR CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER,


AND OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS


The Company has adopted a Code of Conduct and Conflict of Interest Guidelines for Directors and Officers. Shareholders may obtain a copy upon request, addressed to the Corporate Secretary, TransGlobe Energy Corporation, Suite 2300, 250 -5th Street, S.W. Calgary, Alberta, T2P 0R4, Canada. The Company has also posted its Code of Conduct and Conflict of Interest Guidelines for Directors and Officers on its Internet website at www.trans-globe.com. All amendments to the Code of Conduct and Conflict of Interest Guidelines for Directors and Officers and all waivers of the Code of Conduct and Conflict of Interest Guidelines for Directors and Officers with respect to any of the persons covered by them will be filed with the SEC and posted on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES


The disclosures required under Instruction B(10) of Form 40-F are included in the “Audit Committee Information” section under the heading “Principal Accountant Fees and Services” on page 37 of the Company’s Annual Information Form for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Annual Report on Form 40-F.





PRE-APPROVAL OF NON-AUDIT SERVICES BY AUDITOR


It is within the mandate of the Company’s Audit Committee to approve all audit and non-audit related fees.  The Audit Committee is informed routinely as to the non-audit services to be provided by the auditor pursuant to this pre-approval process. The auditors also present the estimate for the annual audit related services to the Audit Committee for approval prior to undertaking the annual audit of the financial statements.





The Audit Committee’s pre-approval policy is that all non-audit services to be performed by the Company’s auditors must be approved by the Audit Committee in advance of the engagement of the Company’s auditors to perform such services. The pre-approval process involves management presenting the Audit Committee with a description of any proposed non-audit services. The Audit Committee considers the appropriateness of such services and whether the provision of those services would impact the auditor’s independence, including the magnitude of the potential fees. Once the committee has satisfied itself of its concerns, if any, it then votes either in favor of or against contracting the Company’s auditors to perform the proposed non-audit services.











OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS


None.
