(\"Northern\" or the \"Agent\"), whereby Northern offered to raise, on a best efforts basis, up to $2,000,000 (the \"Offering\"). No funds were raised due to time restrictions and market conditions and this agreement has been terminated by Lochaird.\n\nLochaird is in the process of arranging another source of financing to be used for exploration on Lochaird's 12 sections of land in two core areas in Manitoba. In the Tilston area, Lochaird intends to drill a second exploratory well to test a new zone and confirm the size of the Bakken and Mission Canyon zones identified in the first well. The second area at Waskada will have 3D seismic shot targeting Bakken and Mission Canyon zones as part of a previously announced farm-in agreement. Wells on these lands have previously produced 40 MSTB of oil from the Mission Canyon and the seismic will identify the optimum location for horizontal wells to exploit this proven zone and the Bakken zone.\n\nThe TSX Venture Exchange does not accept responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.\n\nFor further information please contact:\nGrant S.
