Houston American Energy Corp. (the "Company") has scheduled its 2023 annual stockholders meeting (the "2023 Annual Meeting") on June 27, 2023.

The Company has set the close of business on April 10, 2023 as the deadline for receipt of any stockholder proposals for inclusion in the proxy materials to be distributed in connection with the 2023 Annual Meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), which the Company believes to be a reasonable time before it expects to begin to print and distribute its proxy materials for the 2023 Annual Meeting.

In addition, pursuant to the Company's bylaws, stockholders who wish to bring business before the 2023 Annual Meeting outside of Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act or to nominate a person for election as a director must ensure that written notice of such proposal or nomination (including all of the information specified in the Bylaw) is received by the Company no later than the close of business on April 10, 2023.

Any proposals of stockholders, as described above, should be sent to the Company's corporate secretary at our corporate headquarters located at 801 Travis Street, Suite 1425, Houston, Texas 77002, for receipt no later than the close of business on April 10, 2023.
