BNK Petroleum Inc. Announces Completion of C$14.0 Million Financing

California (ots/PRNewswire)

BNK Petroleum Inc. (the "Company") (TSX: BKX) is pleased to announce the completion of its previously announced short form prospectus offering (the "Offering") of common shares of the Company (the "Shares") through a syndicate of agents co-led by GMP FirstEnergy and Haywood Securities Inc. and including Macquarie Capital Markets Canada Ltd.

Pursuant to the Offering, the Company issued 70,000,000 Shares at a price of C$0.20 per share for gross proceeds of C$14,000,000. The Company intends to use the net proceeds to fund exploration and development of its Tishomingo Field, located in Oklahoma, U.S. and for general corporate purposes.

Wolf Regener, President & CEO, commented:

"With the closing of this offering, which was increased by more than 25% due to strong support from existing shareholders as well as new investors, we are moving ahead with a drilling program that will take advantage of the current low cost environment. The location of our proposed wellsites offset some of our best performing wells, in a geologically comparable area. We expect our drilling program to increase cash flow while at the same time proving up additional reserves.

"The preparation of our first location is almost complete, we are currently evaluating bids for a drilling rig and will select a vendor shortly. We expect to provide a further update when we announce our third quarter results in early November."

Directors and senior officers of the Company purchased a total of 4,680,000 Shares in the Offering. Accordingly, the Offering constituted to that extent a "related party transaction" under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101"). The transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements under MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of any shares issued to or the consideration paid by such persons exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Offering as the details of the Offering and the participation therein by related parties of the Company were not settled until shortly prior to closing and the Company wished to close on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.
