Petroforte Announces Upcoming Share Consolidation, Name Change and New Ticker Symbol (TSXV: CAC)

NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

Petroforte International Ltd., ("Petroforte" or "the Company") (TSX VENTURE:PFI)
is pleased to announce that it intends to complete the previously announced
share consolidation and name change on Friday, February 21, 2014 (the "Effective
Date"). 


Share Consolidation: 

The Company's issued and outstanding common shares will be consolidated on the
basis of one (1) new common share of the Company for every six (6) existing
common shares on the Effective Date (the "Consolidation"). The Consolidation
received shareholder approval at the annual and special meeting of shareholders
held December 17, 2013 (the "Shareholders' Meeting") and approval from the TSX
Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") on February 19, 2014.  


Both management and the board of directors believes that the Consolidation is in
the best interests of the Corporation's shareholders and is necessary in order
to provide the Corporation with a share capital structure that will better
attract capital financing and enhance future growth opportunities. The
implementation of the Consolidation will not affect the total shareholders'
equity of Petroforte or any components of shareholders' equity as reflected on
Petroforte's financial statements except: (i) to change the number of issued and
outstanding common shares; and (ii) to change the stated capital of the common
shares to reflect the Consolidation.


Name Change and New Ticker Symbol: 

The Company's name will change from "Petroforte International Ltd." to "Canamax
Energy Ltd." on the Effective Date (the "Name Change") and the Company will
simultaneously begin using "CAC" as its new ticker symbol. The board of
directors feels that the new name more accurately depicts the Corporation's
focus on the Canadian energy sector. The Name Change received shareholder
approval at the Shareholders' Meeting and approval from the TSXV on February 19,
2014.
