Petrox Resources Executes Amalgamation Agreement with TrueNorth CX Inc.

Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - June 12, 2018) - Petrox Resources Corp. (TSXV: PTC) ("Petrox"), announces that today it has entered into an amalgamation agreement (the "Amalgamation Agreement") with TrueNorth CX Inc. ("TNCX") and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petrox, 2123054 Alberta Ltd. ("Petrox SubCo"). Under the Amalgamation Agreement, TNCX and Petrox Subco will amalgamate to form a new corporation, which will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Petrox (the "Transaction"). The Transaction was originally announced in Petrox's press release dated April 25, 2018 when the parties entered into a letter of intent for the Transaction. In this press release, the term, "Resulting Issuer" means Petrox after completion of the Transaction.

As previously disclosed, pursuant to the Transaction, Petrox will complete a 5.5 to one (5.5:1) consolidation of all of its issued and outstanding common shares (the "Consolidation") and the parties will complete the following exchange of securities, at a deemed issue price of C$0.10 per post consolidation common share:

(i)             each outstanding TNCX common share shall be exchanged for one unit (a "Resulting Issuer Unit") consisting of one post-Consolidation common share of the Resulting Issuer (a "Resulting Issuer Common Share") and one-half of a warrant (each whole warrant, a "Resulting Issuer Warrant"), each of which Resulting Issuer Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to purchase one additional Resulting Issuer Common Share at a price of $0.25 per shares for a period of one year, provided that if the Resulting Issuer Common Shares trade at $0.50 or higher for five consecutive days, the Resulting Issuer may accelerate the expiry of the Resulting Issuer Warrants to the date (the "Accelerated Expiration Date") that is 21 calendar days following the date a press release is issued by the Resulting Issuer announcing the Accelerated Expiration Date; and

(ii)             each outstanding post consolidation Petrox common share will be exchanged for one (1) Resulting Issuer Common Share.

In connection with the Transaction, Petrox will seek to list its shares for trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE") and will delist its shares from the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") (the "Delisting").

Petrox has called a special meeting of its shareholders to be held on July 10, 2018 to approve the Consolidation, the Delisting and the change of the name of Petrox to "TrueNorth CX Corp" (the "Name Change"). If approved, the Consolidation, Delisting and Name Change would be implemented only in conjunction with the Transaction and only if the Transaction is completed.

The Transaction will be subject to the completion of a number of conditions, including the satisfactory completion by Petrox and TNCX of their respective due diligence, the completion by TNCX of a private placement of shares for gross proceeds of a minimum of $1,000,000 up to a maximum of $3,000,000, approval by the Petrox shareholders of the Consolidation, Delisting and Name Change, approval by the shareholders of TNCX of the amalgamation of TNCX with Petrox SubCo, the deposit into escrow by certain shareholders of Petrox of Resulting Issuer shares representing not less than 60% of the shares of Petrox issued and outstanding prior to the completion of the Transaction and other conditions typical of transactions of this nature.

Contrary to Petrox's earlier press release dated April 25, 2018, the Transaction will not be subject to the approval of TSXV as it is intended that the shares of the Resulting Issuer will become listed on the CSE.
