Green Park Capital Corp. (TSX VENTURE:GRP.P) ("Green Park" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement in principle with Continuum Resources Ltd. ("CNU"), a British Columbia company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), dated June 11, 2008 (the "Agreement") to acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of Continuum Resources S.A. de C.V. (the "Target"), CNU's wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary (the "Proposed Acquisition"). The Target has no dilutive securities outstanding. Haywood Securities Inc. (the "Agent") has agreed to act as sponsor of the Proposed Acquisition, should same be required by the Exchange policies. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company intends to acquire from CNU all of the outstanding shares of the Target (the "Shares") as well as certain assets (the "Assets") consisting of a Hydrocore model 1800 (reproduced) man-portable drill and spare drill parts (including three 4-cylinder diesel engines), the total net book value of which is estimated to be US$500,000. This, and all other financial information pertaining to CNU and the Target, is derived from the audited financial statements of CNU and the Target for the year ended December 31, 2007 which financial statements are prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP. All of the Assets are currently located near CNU's properties in Oaxaca, Mexico. As consideration for the Shares and the Assets, Green Park will pay CNU CAD$150,000 and issue 2,500,000 of its common shares having a deemed value of $0.20 per share. Green Park has also agreed to take an assignment of the convertible debentures (the "Debentures") announced by CNU on May 29, 2008, which will have a face value of up to $350,000. Following closing of the Proposed Acquisition, the Debentures will be convertible into common shares of Green Park at a price of $0.20 per share. As an inducement to convert the Debentures in a timely fashion, holders of Debentures who convert their Debentures into common shares of Green Park within 45 days of the closing of the Proposed Acquisition will receive one-half of one share purchase warrant of Green Park on conversion. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase a further share of Green Park at a price of $0.25 per share for a period of two years from the date of issue. The shares of Green Park issued pursuant to the Proposed Acquisition will be subject to a four-month hold period and may be subject to escrow provisions imposed by the Exchange. A finder's fee will be paid to the Agent in connection with this transaction. Concurrent with the Proposed Acquisition, Green Park will undertake a brokered private placement (the "Financing") through the Agent for gross proceeds of up to CAD$2.0 million to fund exploration programs on the Target's mineral properties (see "Proposed Financing" below). Both the Proposed Acquisition and the Financing will be subject to a due diligence review of the Target and the Claims (defined below) by the Company, and the approval of the Exchange. Green Park is a capital pool company and intends for the Proposed Transaction to constitute its Qualifying Transaction as such term is defined in the policies of the Exchange. In compliance with Exchange policies, Green Park has requested a halt in the trading of its securities and trading shall remain halted until further notice. The Proposed Acquisition is an arm's length transaction and upon completion of the Proposed Acquisition, Green Park expects to be a Tier 2 Mineral Exploration Issuer. Green Park is of the position that the Proposed Acquisition does not require shareholder approval according to Exchange policies. Summary of the Target's Significant Assets The Target holds mining claims over eight distinct claim blocks in the State of Oaxaca, Mexico, and are known as Tres Hermanas, Silacayoapan, Parian - Paras, Cuatro Venados, Nino Perdido, Lachiguiri, Teri and Talea (the "Claims"). The Claims host a variety of precious and polymetallic metals, including gold, silver, lead, zinc and others. The Tres Hermanas claim block will be Green Park's "Principal Property" under Exchange policies following the Proposed Acquisition, and is described below. The Claims are listed and described on CNU's website at www.continuumresources.com, and in CNU's news release dated February 12, 2008 filed on www.sedar.com. Tres Hermanas The Tres Hermanas claim block comprises 3671 hectares, covering a mountainous area in the vicinity of the village of San Sebastian Rio Dulce, some 50 kilometers southwest of the City of Oaxaca. The property consists of three contiguous claims, each owned 100% by the Target since as early as June 2004. The center of interest is the old Tres Hermanas Mine, which was exploited on five levels for silver prior to the Mexican War of Independence in 1810. These adits were mapped and sampled in 1926, but are no longer accessible. Studies in 1926 demonstrated that the deposit yielded average grades of 8.24 oz/t Ag, 4.67% Pb and 10.77% Zn, and these studies also concluded that that the average ore contained 5.4% Galena, 16.2% sphalerite and 13.7% pyrite, with minor copper sulfides. This data is NOT compliant with the standards set out by the CIM or with National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101"), and should be viewed as historical in nature. A technical report under NI 43-101 is currently being prepared. To date, approximately US$725,000 has been spent in exploration on the Tres Hermanas claims. Further information regarding CNU's work at Tres Hermanas may be found in CNU's news releases dated February 4, February 12, and April 15, 2008, on www.sedar.com. Board of Directors and Management of Green Park on Closing Concurrently with the completion of the Proposed Acquisition, a number of changes in the composition of the current directors and officers of the Company will take place.

The other four members of the current Board of Green Park will resign, and will be replaced by Mr. Allan Bassham, who will also assume the role of President of Green Park, Robert McMorran and Warren McIntyre, all currently directors of CNU.
