Edge Resources Inc. Closes $3.5 million Oversubscribed Financing with Key Capital Partners, Announces Commencement of Drilling Programme and Appointment of Joint Broker

Edge Resources Inc. ("Edge" or the "Company") is very pleased to announce that it has closed a financing that has raised CDN$3.5 million (the "Placing") through the issuance of 35,000,006 common shares (the "Placing Shares") with new and existing institutional investors at a price of 6p (CDN$0.10) per share for gross proceeds of £2.1 million.

The oversubscribed Placing was completed at a 14% discount to the most recent AIM trading price, was supported by sector specialists and major new - and existing institutional - investors (including Henderson Global Investors, Edge's largest capital partner).

No warrants (including broker warrants) were issued as part of the Placing and the company paid total commissions of £75,285.02, or 3.6%, of the gross proceeds. The Placing was arranged by Sanlam Securities UK Limited ("Sanlam") and SP Angel Corporate Finance LLP ("SP Angel"), who has been appointed as joint broker to the Company with immediate effect.

The proceeds will be used to further develop the Company's shallow, conventional oil prospects in Eye Hill, Saskatchewan, the location of Edge's most productive assets, which Scotiabank has recently ranked as the 5th best oil play in North America in terms of the profit-to-investment ratio. Edge expects to spud the first well of its multi-well drilling programme before the end of 2013.

In addition to the near term drilling programme, Edge has identified a large number of additional locations in Eye Hill East, and plans to reinvest the cash flow from its existing and new wells into funding the future drilling programme.

Given the exceptional results achieved to date in Eye Hill, the Company expects this financing to be highly accretive on a post-financing, fully diluted basis in the near-to-medium term. The Company plans to be self-funding in 2014 by combining the cash flow expected to be generated from this multi-well drilling programme with the Company's existing positive cash flow.

Brad Nichol, President & CEO of Edge, commented: "It is fantastic to see such overwhelming institutional and sector specialist support for our company. As one of the rare junior oil and gas companies able to raise money in these very difficult capital markets, we are clearly enjoying the benefits of our AIM listing and hugely supportive capital partnerships. We are not just raising money when few others are able to, we're doing it at a much lower cost than most other Canadian companies could imagine. That critical competitive advantage should directly translate into more value for our shareholders, especially in a capital-constrained market like we're experiencing today." Nichol added, "Even though our share price has been impacted by the general junior E&P market havoc, Edge's fundamentals remain solid and this capital injection should be highly accretive for shareholders - especially as we expect to become self-funding on the basis of a successful multi-well drilling programme."

Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for admission of the Placing Shares to AIM and to the TSX-V, with admission expected to become effective on November 21, 2013. When issued, the Placing Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing common shares. The Placing Shares will represent 21.4% of the Company's issued share capital following admission, when the Company will have 163,802,246 common shares in issue.
