</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A special meeting of stockholders (the &#147;Special Meeting&#148;) of VAALCO Energy, Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148; or &#147;VAALCO&#148;) will be held at
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;, local time, on January 5, 2016, at &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;. Details regarding admission to the meeting and the business to be
conducted are more fully described in the accompanying Notice of Special Meeting and Proxy Statement. VAALCO is calling the Special Meeting to allow stockholders of the Company an opportunity to amend the Company&#146;s certificate of incorporation
and bylaws to provide stockholders with the power to remove directors without cause (the &#147;Cause Amendment Proposal&#148;) and to vote upon five proposals that were made by Group 42, Inc. (&#147;Group 42&#148;), Bradley L. Radoff and their
affiliates (collectively, the &#147;Group 42-BLR Group&#148;) in its consent solicitation statement on Schedule 14A with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;Group 42 Consent Solicitation&#148;). For reasons described further in this
Proxy Statement, VAALCO considers the proposal contained in the Group 42 Consent Solicitation to remove without cause four members of the Board of Directors of VAALCO (the &#147;Board&#148;) to not be an action that can be properly taken under the
Company&#146;s certificate of incorporation, which explicitly provides that directors can only be removed for cause. In the interest of stockholder democracy, however, the Board has decided to put the Cause Amendment Proposal and the five proposals
of the Group 42 Consent Solicitation to a vote of stockholders at the Special Meeting. These six proposals are together herein referred to as the &#147;Proposals&#148;. This Proxy Statement and accompanying proxy card are first being mailed to
stockholders on or about &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;. </P>
 <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This Special Meeting is of particular importance to all VAALCO stockholders because the Proposals entail removing four directors of the Company,
representing a majority of your Board, three of whom were elected by you on June&nbsp;3, 2015, at the Company&#146;s 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The Proposals also include a proposal to fill the vacancies created by such removal with four
individuals recommended by the Group 42-BLR Group. In short, the Proposals, taken together, require you to decide whether to turn over control of your Company to persons hand-picked by the Group 42-BLR Group. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Board strongly believes that the proposals seeking to remove the directors are not in the best interests of stockholders. Your full Board is elected
annually, so stockholders who believe the current directors are not acting in the best interest of the stockholders will have the ability to propose replacement nominees and remove some or all of the current directors at next year&#146;s annual
meeting of stockholders. The Board believes the control of the Company belongs to all stockholders as represented by their elections at the annual meeting, rather than to the Group 42-BLR Group and their director nominees, who may have interests
different from the best interests of all of the Company&#146;s stockholders. Accordingly, we urge you to reject the Group 42-BLR Group&#146;s efforts to remove a majority of the members of your Board. We are prepared to discuss, and have previously
offered to discuss, any substantive issues raised by the Group 42-BLR Group and are open to all suggestions to build value for stockholders. </P>

enclosed proxy card TODAY. </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">With respect to Proposal 1 to amend the certificate of incorporation and the bylaws to provide stockholders with the power
to remove directors without cause, the Board makes NO RECOMMENDATION. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Your vote is important. Whether or not you plan to attend the Special Meeting, we
hope you will submit your proxy as soon as possible. You may submit a proxy over the internet, by telephone or by signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the envelope provided. Information about each of these proxy submission
methods is set forth in the accompanying Notice of Special Meeting and Proxy Statement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>We urge you NOT to sign or return any proxy cards sent by the
Group 42-BLR Group.</B> If you have previously signed any proxy card from the Group 42-BLR Group, you can revoke that earlier proxy and vote by proxy against the Proposals by signing, dating and returning the enclosed <B></B>proxy card in the
postage-paid envelope provided, by voting by proxy over the internet using the internet address on the <B></B>proxy card or by voting by proxy by telephone using the toll-free number on the <B></B>proxy card.<B> </B></P>

filed a preliminary consent solicitation statement on Schedule 14A with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Through the Group 42 Consent Solicitation, the Group 42-BLR Group has asked you to turn over control of your Board and the Company by
asking you to remove three of the six directors whom you elected five months ago on June&nbsp;3, 2015, at the Company&#146;s 2015 Annual Meeting of stockholders, and to remove Mr.&nbsp;Steven&nbsp;J. Pully who was added to your Board on
July&nbsp;31, 2015, and to replace these four directors with a slate of nominees picked by the Group 42-BLR Group, including two principals of the Group 42-BLR Group. Specifically, the Group 42-BLR Group has asked you to: (i)&nbsp;repeal any
provision of the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company (the &#147;Bylaws&#148;) in effect at the time this proposal becomes effective, including any amendments thereto, that was not included in the Bylaws that were in effect on

directorships after November&nbsp;6, 2015 and prior to the time that any of the actions proposed to be taken by the Group 42-BLR Group become effective (the &#147;Removal Proposal&#148;); (iii)&nbsp;amend Article III, Section&nbsp;2 of the Bylaws to
provide that any vacancies on the Board resulting from the removal of directors by the stockholders of the Company shall be filled exclusively by the stockholders of the Company (the &#147;Vacancy Proposal&#148;); (iv)&nbsp;amend Article III,

</P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Your Board has announced and called the Special Meeting to be held on January 5, 2016 because it believes that the Group 42-BLR Group&#146;s effort
to remove four directors &#147;without cause&#148; is an action that cannot properly be taken under the Company&#146;s certificate of incorporation. The Company&#146;s charter permits stockholders to remove directors only for &#147;cause&#148; and
there is no case law that has held that a &#147;cause&#148; restriction for director removal in a charter would be unenforceable under Delaware law. However, the Board is receptive to stockholder views and would like to give stockholders the
opportunity to make removal of a director without cause a permissible action under the Company&#146;s governing documents. VAALCO has announced this Special Meeting to be held on January 5, 2016 for the purpose of allowing stockholders to consider
and vote on a proposal to amend the Company&#146;s charter and Bylaws to allow for the removal of a director without cause, as well as the other five proposals posed by the Group 42-BLR Group in its Group 42 Consent Solicitation and described

who believe the current directors are not acting in the best interest of the stockholders will have the ability to propose replacement nominees and remove some or all of the current directors at next year&#146;s annual meeting of stockholders. The
Board believes the control of the Company belongs to all stockholders as represented by their elections at the annual meeting, rather than to the Group 42-BLR Group and their director nominees, who may have interests that differ from the best
interests of all of the Company&#146;s stockholders. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, if the Nominees are elected, your Board would be controlled by the Nominees, who

calling this Special Meeting because it considers the proposal contained in the Group 42 Consent Solicitation to remove without cause four members of the Board to not be an action that can be properly taken under the Company&#146;s Charter, which
explicitly provides that directors can only be removed for cause. As the Board cannot ignore its fiduciary responsibility to follow a clear provision of your Charter, it considers the proposal contained in the Group 42 Consent Solicitation to remove
without cause four members of the Board to be null and void. At the same time, the Board remains committed to acting in the best interests of all of the Company&#146;s stockholders and to discharging its duties in this regard by staying highly

default under certain circumstances. It is an event of default under the Loan Agreement when control (as defined below) of the Company is transferred to any person without the consent of IFC, provided such consent may not be unreasonably withheld if
the proposed transferee has a proven technical record in the international oil industry, if relevant, sound financial standing and, in IFC&#146;s reasonable judgment, a good reputation. &#147;Control&#148; is defined as the power to direct the
management or policies of a person, directly or indirectly, whether through the ownership of shares or other securities, by contract or otherwise, provided that the direct or indirect ownership of fifty-one per cent (51%)&nbsp;or more of the voting
share capital of a person is deemed to constitute control of that person. The Company intends to seek IFC&#146;s consent to the change of control that would result if the Proposals are approved, resulting in the replacement of a majority of the
members of the Board. However, no assurances can be made that IFC will consent to such change of control. Pursuant to the existing terms of the Loan Agreement, upon an event of default, IFC may elect to immediately accelerate all outstanding
indebtedness under the Loan Agreement. As of September&nbsp;30, 2015, there was approximately $15 million of debt outstanding under the Loan Agreement. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Board is making <B>NO RECOMMENDATION.</B> </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company is
calling this Special Meeting because it considers the proposal contained in the Group 42 Consent Solicitation to remove without cause four members of the Board to not be an action that can be properly taken under the Company&#146;s Charter, which
explicitly provides that directors can only be removed for cause. As the Board cannot ignore its fiduciary responsibility to follow a clear provision of your Charter, it considers the Group 42 Consent Solicitation to be null and void. At the same
time, the Board remains committed to acting in the best interests of all of the Company&#146;s stockholders and to discharging its duties in this regard by staying highly responsive to stockholder interests and concerns. Therefore, the Board is
placing Proposal 1 on the agenda of this Special Meeting to provide stockholders with a valid legal means by which to amend the Charter and Bylaws, should they wish to do so, to permit stockholders to remove directors with or without cause. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Board believes that the current structure for director election and removal facilitates dutiful corporate governance and avoids disruptive interferences
with the Board&#146;s management of the Company and the unnecessary consumption of corporate resources. Your Board is elected annually, so stockholders who believe the current directors are not acting in the best interest of the stockholders will
have the ability to nominate opposing director candidates at next year&#146;s annual meeting of stockholders. The Board believes the control of the Company belongs to all stockholders as represented by their elections at the annual meeting, rather
than to the Group 42-BLR Group and their director nominees, who may have interests different from the best interests of all of the Company&#146;s stockholders. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Each year, your directors are selected through processes designed to ensure representation of all stockholders and that the Board will be comprised of
directors with the necessary skills and experience to direct the management and affairs of the Company. These processes are described in detail in the Company&#146;s annual proxy statement and this Proxy Statement. The above beliefs notwithstanding,
however, the Board believes that fundamental governance decisions such as these need the input of stockholders. As such, the Board is making <B>no recommendation</B> as to voting &#147;for&#148; or &#147;against&#148; the amendments. </P>

No.&nbsp;3, stockholders may decide whether or not to approve a proposal to remove without cause four members of the Board, Frederick W. Brazelton, James B. Jennings, John J. Myers, Jr. and Steven J. Pully, including any person elected or appointed
to the Board to fill any vacancy on the Board or any newly-created directorships after November&nbsp;6, 2015 and prior to the time of the Special Meeting. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company believes that the Removal Proposal is contingent upon stockholders approving the Cause Amendment Proposal, and that if the Cause Amendment
Proposal is not approved by the stockholders, the Removal Proposal will not constitute a proper matter for stockholder action under the Charter. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Article
V, Section 3 of the Company&#146;s Charter provides that directors may be removed only for cause, and the Company believes that this rule is binding upon the Company unless the stockholders of the Company, in combination with Board approval, amend
Article V, Section 3 of the Charter to allow for director removal without cause. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Group 42-BLR Group considers Article V, Section 3 of the Charter to
be invalid and unenforceable on the basis of Section 141(k) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Section 141(k) permits directors to be removed with or without cause and does not explicitly permit variation from this standard, except in
circumstances which are not present in the current circumstances. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company, by contrast, notes that under Section 102(b)(l) of the Delaware General
Corporation Law, the Company&#146;s Charter may contain &#147;any provision for the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the corporation, and any provision limiting and regulating the powers of the stockholders&#148;
unless such provision is contrary to mandatory Delaware law. Thus, the Company notes that stockholders, in combination with Board approval, may choose to modify the default rules of the Delaware General Corporation Law. The Company believes there is
no authoritative law that a Delaware corporation is not allowed to deviate in its charter from the rules set forth in Section 141(k). The Company further believes that, under Delaware law, the Board cannot ignore, waive or amend the express terms of
the Charter in favor of the Group 42-BLR Group&#146;s untested theory that a Delaware corporation cannot deviate from Section 141(k) in its charter. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For
these reasons among others, the Company believes that the Removal Proposal is contingent upon stockholders approving the Cause Amendment Proposal and will not constitute a proper matter for stockholder action under the Charter unless the Cause
Amendment Proposal is approved. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>BOARD OF DIRECTORS&#146; RESPONSE TO PROPOSAL NO. 3 </B></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We recommend rejection of Proposal No.&nbsp;3 for several reasons. First, if the Cause Amendment Proposal is not approved by stockholders, the Removal Proposal
will not be an action that can be properly taken under the Charter, as it explicitly provides that stockholders may only remove directors for cause. If the Cause Amendment Proposal is approved by stockholders, we still recommend that stockholders
vote against the Removal Proposal. Messrs. Brazelton, Jennings and Myers were elected by you on June&nbsp;3, 2015, at the Company&#146;s 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and Messr.&nbsp;Pully was appointed to your Board on July&nbsp;31, 2015.
Your directors were selected through processes designed to ensure representation of all stockholders and that the Board will be comprised of directors with the necessary skills and experience to direct the management and affairs of the Company.
These processes are described in detail in the Company&#146;s annual proxy statement and this Proxy Statement. In addition, the Board asks you to consider whether the Group 42-BLR Group, a holder of 11.1% of the Company&#146;s stock, should be able
to take control of your Board with the Group 42-BLR Group&#146;s hand-picked slate of four nominees, two of which are principals of the Group 42-BLR Group. Your Board urges you to rely on your independent Nominating and Corporate Governance
Committee and the stockholder nomination process to create a Board that meets the needs of the Company and serves the best interests of all of its stockholders. </P>

the class or series and number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned, any short positions held in our securities and other information about his or her ownership of our securities, any other information relating to the stockholder that

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Steven P. Guidry</I>&#151;Mr. Guidry has served as the Company&#146;s Chief Executive Officer since October 2013. At that time, he was also appointed to our
Board of Directors and became Chairman of the Board in June 2014. Prior to joining VAALCO, Mr.&nbsp;Guidry was Vice President of Business Development for Marathon Oil Corporation since July 2011, where he was responsible for acquisitions of
strategic opportunities for value growth. Mr.&nbsp;Guidry also held numerous executive management positions, including President of Marathon Oil Libya Limited from October 2008 to July 2011. Prior to the Libya assignment, he was regional Vice
President for Marathon Oil&#146;s North American Production Operations. Mr.&nbsp;Guidry oversaw all of the company&#146;s onshore and offshore domestic exploration and production activities. He also spent 5 years leading Marathon Oil&#146;s Central
Africa Business Unit, overseeing project expansions and operations in Equatorial Guinea, Gabon and Angola. Throughout his career, he held challenging technical, staff and managerial positions in Marathon&#146;s domestic and international production
organizations. Mr.&nbsp;Guidry graduated from the University of Louisiana Lafayette in 1980 with a Bachelor of Science in Petroleum Engineering. He is a member of the Society of Petroleum Engineers and served on the board of directors for the
Corporate Council on Africa, the Independent Petroleum Association of America, the U.S. Oil and Gas Association and was a member of the Upstream Committee of the American Petroleum Institute. We believe Mr.&nbsp;Guidry&#146;s operational background
and experience, particularly in the international arena, qualify him for continued service on the Board. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Frederick W. Brazelton</I>&#151;Mr. Brazelton

Mr.&nbsp;Chapoton has been a partner in the VMS Group, a partnership involved in investment opportunities in technology and in furnishing back office services to venture funds and partnerships, since 2001. He practiced law with the firm of Baker
Botts, LLP from the early 1960s until 2001 specializing in income tax matters, including both transactional tax work and legislative and regulatory matters. From 1986 to 1989, Mr.&nbsp;Chapoton left Baker Botts to serve as the Assistant Secretary of
the Treasury for Tax Policy under President Reagan. In that role he participated in the formulation of the Reagan Administration&#146;s tax policy and presented that policy in testimony before the U.S. Congress. In 1989, he rejoined Baker Botts as
the partner-in-charge of the firm&#146;s Washington office. He also served for a time as a senior partner in Breen Investors, LLC, an investment advisory firm. Mr.&nbsp;Chapoton received his LL.B., with honors, from The University of Texas School of
Law. We believe Mr.&nbsp;Chapoton&#146;s legal background and experience and his knowledge of the tax law and the legislative process in Washington qualify him for continued service on our Board. </P>

States Azerbaijan Chamber of Commerce, the Asia Society of Texas and the Houston World Affairs Council. Mr.&nbsp;Fawthrop holds a Bachelor of Science in Geology and Chemistry and a Master&#146;s degree in Marine Geology from the University of
London. We believe Mr.&nbsp;Fawthrop&#146;s experience in the international oil and gas industry qualifies him for continued service on our Board. </P>

from 2008 to 2013 and as a Director of Carbo Ceramics, Inc., a publicly traded oilfield services company, since July 2007. Prior to retiring from Hunt Oil Company in 2007, he had served the privately-owned company for over 28 years, with increasing
responsibilities over the years, including President from April 1999 through April 2004 and Chairman from 2004 through 2007. Mr.&nbsp;Jennings was responsible for establishing the strategic direction of Hunt Oil Company and was also responsible for

of directors of VAALCO&#146;s competitors and may seek input from industry experts or analysts. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the qualifications, experience and background of the candidates. Final candidates are
interviewed by the independent directors and executive management. In making its determinations, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee evaluates each individual in the context of the Board as a whole, with the objective of assembling a
group with diverse backgrounds that can best represent stockholder interests through the exercise of sound judgment. After review and deliberation of all feedback and data, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee makes its recommendation
to the Board of Directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may in the future choose to engage third-party search firms in situations where particular qualifications are required or where existing contacts are not sufficient to
identify an appropriate candidate. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers all candidates recommended by our stockholders in

controls in selected areas representing significant financial and business risk. The Audit Committee periodically discusses with management its assessment of various risks and considers the impact of risk on our financial position and the adequacy
of our risk-related internal controls. Our Compensation Committee also considers risks that could be implicated by our compensation programs, and our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee annually reviews the effectiveness of our leadership

opportunities. Our compensation program is designed to reward performance that contributes to the achievement of our business strategy on both a short-term and long-term basis. In addition, we reward qualities that we believe help achieve our
strategy, such as teamwork; individual performance in light of general economic and industry specific conditions; performance that supports our core values; resourcefulness; the ability to manage our existing corporate assets; the ability to explore
new avenues to increase oil and gas production and reserves; level of job responsibility; and tenure with the industry. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Elements of Our Compensation
Program and Why We Pay Each Element </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">To accomplish our objectives, our compensation program is comprised of four elements: base salary,
cash bonus, long-term equity-based compensation and benefits. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We pay base salary in order to recognize each executive officer&#146;s
unique value and historical contributions to our success in light of salary norms in the industry and the general marketplace; to match competitors for executive talent; to provide executives with predictable, regularly-paid income; and to reflect
an executive&#146;s position and level of responsibility. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We include an annual cash bonus as part of our compensation program because we
believe this element of compensation helps to motivate management to achieve key corporate objectives by rewarding the achievement of these objectives. The annual cash bonus also allows us to be competitive from a total remuneration standpoint. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Long-term equity-based incentive compensation is an important element of our compensation policy because we believe it aligns executives&#146;
interests with the interests of our stockholders; rewards long-term performance; is required in order for us to be competitive from a total remuneration standpoint; encourages executive retention; and gives executives the opportunity to share in our
long-term performance. Prior to 2014, long-term equity-based incentive compensation was comprised of stock option awards. Option awards are granted at exercise prices not less than the market value of our common stock on the date of the grant and
are not </P>

transferable (other than to the holder&#146;s heirs or entities for the benefit of his or her heirs). Therefore, option awards granted will have no realizable value unless our stock price
appreciates in value. As part of a competitive compensation arrangement, we also provided a restricted stock award to Mr.&nbsp;Guidry, our Chief Executive Officer, upon his effective date of hire in October 2013. Beginning with annual awards in
March 2014, we utilize both option awards and stock awards as components of long-term equity-based incentive compensation for all of the executive officers. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We also offer benefits, such as a 401(k) plan and payment of insurance premiums, in order to provide a competitive remuneration package. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">At our 2014 Annual Meeting, we offered our stockholders an opportunity for an advisory, non-binding vote on our executive compensation through
our &#147;say on pay&#148; proposal. Approximately 91% of the stockholders who voted on the proposal last year approved the compensation to our Named Executive Officers. Our 2014 compensation reflected the changes we implemented to our programs and
disclosure following our &#147;say on pay&#148; vote. Based on the overwhelming support demonstrated in last year&#146;s &#147;say on pay&#148; vote, we retained the significant changes made to our incentive compensation, which included a reduction
in the cash bonus component of total compensation in favor of an increase in long-term equity-based incentives pursuant to our 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the &#147;2014 LTIP&#148;), which was approved by the Company&#146;s stockholders at the
2014 Annual Meeting. The Compensation Committee will continue to consider the outcome for our &#147;say on pay&#148; votes and stockholder views when making future compensation decisions for our executive officers. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>How We Determine Each Element of Compensation </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In determining the elements of compensation, we consider various measures of Company and industry performance, including total stockholder
return, debt levels, revenues, cash flow, capital expenditures, reserves of oil and gas, costs and other measures discussed herein. We may from time to time retain an independent compensation consulting firm to assist the Compensation Committee in
evaluating the executive compensation program. The Compensation Committee has retained Mercer Consulting (&#147;Mercer&#148;), an independent compensation consultant, with respect to determining compensation. The decision to engage Mercer was made
by the Compensation Committee, and Mercer reported directly to the Compensation Committee; however, at the Compensation Committee&#146;s direction, the consultant worked directly with management to review or prepare materials for the Compensation
Committee&#146;s consideration. While engaged as the Compensation Committee&#146;s consultant, Mercer did not perform any services for the Company outside the scope of its arrangement with the Compensation Committee. During 2014, the Compensation
Committee reviewed the consultant&#146;s independence and determined that there were no conflicts of interest as a result of the Compensation Committee&#146;s engagement of Mercer. The Compensation Committee did not engage any consultant other than
Mercer during 2014 to provide executive compensation consulting services. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The scope of Mercer&#146;s engagement has been to provide a
proposed list of peer companies that operate in a similar business to VAALCO, and to analyze peer compensation data to provide the Compensation Committee with an assessment of the Company&#146;s top executive positioning compared to the market.
Specifically, Mercer&#146;s role has been to: </P> <P STYLE="font-size:6pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

significant portion of total compensation reflecting a risk aspect tied to long- and short-term financial and strategic goals. In 2014, based on the report of our compensation consultant and the compensation practices of our peers, we decided to
proportionately reduce potential cash bonus compensation for our executives while increasing potential equity-based incentive compensation. We believe this shift still provides a competitive, attractive cash bonus opportunity for our executives
while also more closely aligning their interests with those of our stockholders. Other than as noted above, our Compensation Committee has not adopted any formal or informal policies or guidelines for allocating compensation between long-term and
annually paid-out compensation, between cash and non-cash compensation or among different forms of non-cash compensation. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Market Comparisons </B></P>

that assembled a group of public exploration and production companies with revenues comparable to the Company&#146;s revenues. The analysis resulted in the following set of 11 peers: </P>

Compensation Committee (i)&nbsp;remove EPL Oil&nbsp;&amp; Gas Inc., Sanchez Production Partners LLC and Endeavour International Corp. due to acquisition or reorganization and (ii)&nbsp;remove Kosmos Energy Ltd. and Carrizo Oil&nbsp;&amp; Gas Inc.
due to their growth in revenues. Mercer, seeking out peer companies meeting the revenue requirements but also in alignment with the Company&#146;s focus on international offshore exploration and development, also recommended to the Compensation
Committee that it replace the removed peers with the following six companies: Transglobe Energy Corporation, Oando Energy Resources Inc., Apco Oil&nbsp;&amp; Gas International, Inc., Transatlantic Petroleum Ltd. and Camac Energy Inc. The
Compensation Committee adopted the recommendations of Mercer with respect to the changes to the peer group and utilized the revised peer group in making its compensation determinations in March 2015. </P>

significant non-United States operations; however, only four of the peer companies have any significant West African properties, which is the Company&#146;s current focus. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Although the Compensation Committee retained Mercer to conduct a peer group analysis and also reviewed other survey information, ultimately
many of the compensation decisions are qualitative and not quantitative and take into consideration the unique international nature of our operations, competitive conditions in our industry, competitive conditions for executive talent and other
factors discussed below. We do not set specific benchmarks but rather use peer group information to check our compensation decisions for reasonableness. </P>

salaries, the Compensation Committee seeks to maintain stability and predictability from year to year and usually makes percentage increases based on its view of the cost of living and competitive conditions for executive talent in the oil and gas
business. The Compensation Committee also considers subjective factors in setting base salary, including individual achievements, our performance, level of responsibility, experience, leadership abilities, increases or changes in duties and
responsibilities and contributions to our performance. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In January 2014, the Compensation Committee approved a voluntary reduction of
Mr.&nbsp;Gerry&#146;s salary as Executive Chairman to $298,351 per annum, which continued until his retirement as Executive Chairman in June 2014. In March 2014, utilizing knowledge of competitive conditions in the industry, the Compensation
Committee determined to keep the 2014 base salaries for our four Named Executive Officers at the previous levels set for 2013, which were as follows: $500,000 for Mr.&nbsp;Guidry, $496,173 for Mr.&nbsp;Scheirman, $333,828 for Mr.&nbsp;Hullinger and
$300,132 for Ms.&nbsp;Cutrer. In March 2015, given the current downturn in the energy industry more generally, the Compensation Committee again determined to keep the 2015 base salaries for our four Named Executive Officers at the previous levels
set for 2014. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Bonus </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our executive

ensuing fiscal year. Based on the budget and forecast, at their meeting in the first quarter of the following year, the Compensation Committee sets various targets for financial and non-financial measures, such as oil and gas production levels,
operating expenses, safety performance, resource additions and total stockholder return. During the first quarter of each year, following a preliminary determination of our financial and operating results, our Compensation Committee meets to
establish bonus compensation for the previous year and to formally establish the bonus program goals for the current year. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In determining
the incentive bonuses earned, the Compensation Committee gives substantial weight to our achievement of the Company goals and objectives set out in our budget for the preceding year in addition to individual goals and objectives for each executive.
Typically, approximately 60% of the target bonus is based on corporate goals while approximately 40% of the target bonus is based on individual performance and accomplishments. </P>

Compensation&#148; to the Company&#146;s Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company&#146;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2014. The actual value that can be realized from the exercise of stock
options, if any, depends on the increase of VAALCO&#146;s stock price above the exercise price between the vesting date and the exercise date. With the exception of Mr.&nbsp;Guidry&#146;s awards in 2013, one-third of the options vested on the grant
date and then one-third annually thereafter. The options expire 5 years after grant date. Mr.&nbsp;Guidry&#146;s awards for 2013 begin to vest in a four year period with one-fifth vesting on each of his first three anniversaries with the Company and
the remaining two-fifths vesting on the fourth anniversary with the Company. The options expire on his fifth anniversary with the Company. The restricted stock awards vest in three equal tranches on the first, second and third anniversaries of the
date of grant. </TD></TR></TABLE>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Amended and Restated Executive Employment Agreement with Mr.&nbsp;Guidry </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In 2013, we entered into an Executive Employment Agreement with Mr.&nbsp;Guidry as our Chief Executive Officer. The initial term of the
Agreement is until December&nbsp;31, 2015, and is subject to one year automatic extensions unless terminated by either party. The Agreement provides for an annual base salary of $500,000 with the opportunity to receive an annual target bonus of 100%
of base salary, as determined by the Compensation Committee based on performance goals established by the Committee. Under the Agreement, Mr.&nbsp;Guidry was paid a sign-on bonus of $200,000, and was awarded 100,000 restricted shares of our common
stock and options to purchase 600,000 shares of our common stock. The exercise price of 200,000 of the options was at the market price on the date of grant ($5.89 per share), 200,000 options have an exercise price of $7.50 per share and the
remaining 200,000 shares have an exercise price of $9.00 per share. The options have a five year term. The restricted stock and options vest over the first through fourth anniversary of the grant, provided that the restricted stock and options
automatically fully vest upon a change of control. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Agreement provides for a severance payment if Mr.&nbsp;Guidry&#146;s employment is
terminated by us other than for &#147;cause,&#148; or is terminated because of his death or disability, or is terminated by Mr.&nbsp;Guidry for &#147;good reason.&#148; The severance payment is the sum of his base salary plus the highest annual
bonus received during the two years prior to termination or the bonus due him for the year in which termination of employment occurs. The Company would also be required to pay for continuing health insurance premiums for Mr.&nbsp;Guidry and his
eligible spouse and dependents for a period of one year following the termination. Cause is generally defined as the following with respect to Mr.&nbsp;Guidry: the conviction of a crime involving moral turpitude or a felony; the commission of a
material act of fraud upon VAALCO, or any customer or supplier; the misappropriation of any funds or property of VAALCO, or any customer or supplier; the willful and continued failure to perform the material duties assigned to him that is not cured
to the reasonable satisfaction of VAALCO; the engagement in any direct and material conflict of interest with VAALCO; or the engagement in any material activity which competes with VAALCO&#146;s business or which would result in a material injury to
the business, reputation or goodwill of VAALCO. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Effective as of September&nbsp;29, 2015, Mr.&nbsp;Guidry&#146;s employment agreement was
amended and restated (such, Amended and Restated Executive Employment Agreement, the &#147;Guidry Employment Agreement&#148;) to extend the term of the agreement until December&nbsp;31, 2016, with automatic extensions for an additional successive
one-year period as of such date and as of each annual anniversary, unless either party gives notice to the other at least sixty days prior to such annual anniversary that no such automatic extension shall occur. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, pursuant to the Guidry Employment Agreement (as amended and restated), Mr.&nbsp;Guidry is entitled to certain enhanced cash
severance payments if, during the term of the employment agreement and within the twelve month period following a &#147;Change in Control&#148; (as defined in the Guidry Employment Agreement) or within the three month period preceding a Change in
Control, Mr.&nbsp;Guidry&#146;s employment is terminated other than (i)&nbsp;by the Company for &#147;cause&#148; (as defined in the Guidry Employment Agreement and described above), (ii)&nbsp;by Mr.&nbsp;Guidry for other than &#147;good
reason&#148; (as defined in the Guidry Employment Agreement and described below), or (iii)&nbsp;due to Mr.&nbsp;Guidry&#146;s death or &#147;disability&#148; (as defined in the Guidry Employment Agreement), subject to his execution of a release of
claims, Mr.&nbsp;Guidry will be entitled to severance benefits consisting of: (i)&nbsp;continued group health plan coverage for one year, (ii)&nbsp;accrued and unpaid base salary, unused vacation days, and reimbursement for previously incurred
business expenses and (iii)&nbsp;an additional payment, payable over a one year period following termination, equal to two times the sum of (x)&nbsp;Mr.&nbsp;Guidry&#146;s base salary then in effect and (y)&nbsp;the higher of (A)&nbsp;the average of
Mr.&nbsp;Guidry&#146;s annual bonus paid or payable for the two calendar years immediately preceding the calendar year in which the termination date occurs and (B)&nbsp;Mr.&nbsp;Guidry&#146;s annual bonus for the calendar year in which the
