Whiteknight Acquisitions II Inc. Announces Closing of Its Qualifying Transaction, Name Change, and Issuance of Early Warning ...

Whiteknight Acquisitions II Inc. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:WKN.P), a Capital
Pool Company, is pleased to announce that it closed its Qualifying Transaction
today (as such term is defined in Policy 2.4 of the Corporate Finance Manual of
the TSX Venture Exchange) (the "Exchange") involving the exchange of all of the
issued and outstanding securities of Diamond Estates Wines & Spirits Ltd.
("Diamond"), for securities of the Company. Pursuant to the Qualifying
Transaction, the Company issued 26,256,671 common shares and 399,973 share
purchase warrants in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding securities
of Diamond. The Company has also changed its name to "Diamond Estates Wines &
Spirits Inc.".


David Mitchell, Peter Beck, Neil Blinco, and Ilja Troitschanski, have resigned
as directors of the Company. Keith Harris and David Mitchell have also resigned
as officers of the Company. 


The Company's board of directors is now comprised of the following individuals:
J. Murray Souter, David Beutel, Keith Harris, John De Sousa, Harold Wolkin, and
John Hick. In addition, the board has appointed J. Murray Souter as Chief
Executive Officer, Andrew Green as Vice President and Corporate Secretary, Geoff
Kritzinger as Chief Financial Officer, and Murray Marshall as Chief Operating
Officer. 


Upon closing of the Qualifying Transaction, 2,000,000 options were granted to J.
Murray Souter, each such option being exercisable for one common share of the
Company at an exercise price of $0.20. 


Prior to closing of the Qualifying Transaction, Diamond completed a private
placement (the "Private Placement") of 41,756,060 subscription receipts (the
"Subscription Receipts") with Paradigm Capital Inc. acting as lead agent on
behalf of a syndicate of agents including Canaccord Genuity Corp. (the
"Agents"), for gross proceeds of $8,351,212. On completion of the escrow release
conditions set out in the subscription receipt agreement entered into among
Diamond, Paradigm Capital Inc., and Olympia Transfer Services Inc. on September
6, 2013, each Subscription Receipt was automatically exchanged for one common
share of the Company resulting in the issuance by the Company today of
41,756,060 common shares. 


Proceeds from the Private Placement will be used as set out in the Filing
Statement of the Company dated August 29, 2013 and found on the Company's
profile at www.sedar.com. 


Through its subscription for 21,250,000 Subscription Receipts in the Private
Placement, which were exchanged for common shares of the Company today, Oakwest
Corporation Limited ("Oakwest") of 20 Eglinton Avenue West, Suite 1902, Toronto,
Ontario, became a control person of the Company. Oakwest acquired 21,250,000
common shares of the Company for $0.20 per share for aggregate consideration of
$4,250,000 being 51% of the total number of securities sold in the Private
Placement (the "Oakwest Acquisition"). Immediately following closing of the
Qualifying Transaction, Oakwest held a total of 22,962,382 common shares, being
31.31% of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company. 


Oakwest completed the Oakwest Acquisition for investment purposes and may
purchase additional securities of the Company on the open market, by private
agreement or otherwise, subject to availability, market conditions, applicable
laws and other relevant factors. 


The common shares held by Oakwest are held in escrow pursuant to an Exchange
Form 5D Value Escrow Agreement, pursuant to which Oakwest's securities shall be
released as to 10% immediately following the issuance of the Final Exchange
Bulletin to be issued in connection with the Qualifying Transaction, and 15%
every six months thereafter.


Oakwest intends to file a report describing the Oakwest Acquisition with
applicable regulators, a copy of which shall be promptly sent to anyone who
requests it from the CEO of the Company. 


The Company previously received conditional approval from the Exchange for the
Qualifying Transaction and the listing of the shares of the Resulting Issuer (as
such term is defined in Policy 2.4 of the Exchange) for trading on the Exchange,
subject to satisfaction of certain customary conditions. The Company anticipates
receiving its Final Exchange Bulletin from the TSX Venture Exchange in respect
of the closing of the Qualifying Transaction within the next week, following
which its common shares will resume trading under the symbol "DWS", and it will
no longer be considered a Capital Pool Company. On closing of the Qualifying
Transaction the Company had a total of 73,336,731 common shares issued and
outstanding. 


Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that
term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts
responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
