EXPLANATORY NOTE
          On January 31, 2008, InterOil Corporation, a Canadian corporation (the “Registrant”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form F-10, as amended, Registration No. 333-148960, (the “Registration Statement”), registering up to 1,510,588 common shares and up to 517,777 Series A Preferred Shares of the Registrant pursuant to share purchase agreements dated November 9, 2007 and November 21, 2007, respectively. This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 is being filed to remove from registration the securities that remain unsold as of the date hereof. Because these unsold securities became freely tradable upon expiration of the required holding periods under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, registration of the unsold securities is no longer necessary. Therefore, this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement is being filed to deregister, as of the effective date of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, all of the  shares remaining unsold under the Registration Statement.
