Item 3.01Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued
Listing Rule or Standard Transfer of Listing.

The common stock of VAALCO Energy, Inc. (the Company) is listed
and traded on the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE). On June28,
2017, the Company received a notice from the NYSE (the NYSE
Notice) that it was not in compliance with the NYSEs continued
listing standards set forth in Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed
Company Manual, which require the average closing price of the
Companys common stock to be at least $1.00 per share over a
consecutive 30-trading-day period. As of June28, 2017, the 30
trading-day average closing price of the Companys common stock
was $0.97 per share.

Upon receipt of the notice of non-compliance from the NYSE, the
Company became subject to the procedures set forth in Section
802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. As required by the
NYSE, the Company will respond, acknowledging the notification,
within 10 days following receipt of the notice. Under NYSE rules,
the Company has six months from receipt of the notice to regain
compliance with the minimum share price rule. The Company expects
its common stock will continue to be listed and traded on the
NYSE during this period, subject to the Companys continued
compliance with the NYSEs other continued listing standards.

The NYSE Notice does not affect the Companys business operations
or trigger any violation of its material debt or other
obligations. The Company expects to continue to file periodic and
certain other reports with the SEC as required by federal
securities laws.
