Edge Resources Announces Demand by Lender to Repay Outstanding Indebtedness and Notice of Intention to Enforce Security

Edge Resources Inc. ("Edge" or the "Company") announces that its lender, Alberta Treasury Branch ("ATB"), has made demand upon Edge for payment in full of Edge's outstanding indebtedness in the aggregate amount of approximately $8.4 million plus interest, costs and fees by Monday, April 11, 2016 at 5:00 p.m. In addition, ATB has provided Edge with a Notice of Intention to Enforce Security pursuant to subsection 244(1) of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada).

The Company is in continued discussions with its subordinated lender to acquire the debt from ATB. While the Company is hopeful and encouraged that its subordinated lender will acquire the debt, which would allow the Company to continue operating, there are no guarantees this will happen before the deadline imposed by ATB.

As announced on March 4(th) and 15(th) 2016, trading in the Company's shares on AIM is currently suspended as the Company does not have an AIM nominated adviser appointed. The Company's admission to AIM will be cancelled on April 15(th) , 2016, as it does not intend to appoint a new nominated adviser.
