Signing of first Canadian Asset Deal

On 13 December 2011 the Company announced that it is was to realise an immediate cash injection of C$1.6m following the execution of a letter of intent (LOI) for a sale and farm-in agreement on 30 sections of the Alberta Joint Venture's Duvernay Shale and Rock Creek acreage. The LOI and subsequent formal agreements were signed with a well-credentialed Calgary petroleum exploration and production company, which provides the AJV with industry experienced partner with strong capital support to develop the Duvernay and Rock Creek projects.
Following settlement of the transaction expected in late January, the AJV will still retain a full interest in
111 gross sections of its Rock Creek and Duvernay Shale acreage, from 141 sections originally held (79%
acreage retained).
Under the sale and farm-in agreement, the investor will acquire an 80% interest in 30 sections (19,200 acres) in the Duvernay and Rock Creek fairway for a total of C$20 million in cash. Tamaska's share of this will be ~C$1.6 m ($1.7m). Tamaska holds an 8% interest in the Duvernay Shale project and a 16% interest in the Rock Creek project.
The Joint Venture partners will also be free-carried through the first two wells drilled on the Duvernay. The first is a vertical well to be drilled in 2012 at an estimated cost of C$5 million. The second well, an optional horizontal well, is to be drilled during the 2013 drilling season with the AJV carried for the first C$15 million of expenditure. The Joint Venture's total exposure to drilling costs on the horizontal well above C$15m is capped at $1m.
In addition, the investor has agreed to fund its pro rata 80% share of a Rock Creek horizontal well within 2 years of execution of the LOI, or return the Rock Creek rights in the lands to the AJV.
Following completion of the transaction, the AJV retains a 20% interest in the 30 sections (19,200 acres) subject to this transaction and 100 % of the remaining 111 sections (70,300 acres). The AJV partners are continuing to evaluate proposals received on their other acreage through the process undertaken with Macquarie Tristone.
