ComWest Enterprise Announces Completion of Acquisition

ComWest Enterprise Corp. (TSX VENTURE:CWP)(TSX VENTURE:CWP.A) (the "Company") is
pleased to announce that it has completed the previously announced acquisition
of the 90% interest in Winnipeg-based Peerless Garments LP ("Peerless") held by
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Newport Partners Income Fund (TSX:NPF.UN). Peerless
is Canada's leading manufacturer of protective harsh weather outerwear for
military personnel. 


In connection with the financing of the acquisition and for general working
capital purposes, ComWest has completed a non-brokered private placement of
1,000,000 units at a price of $6.00 per unit for gross proceeds of $6,000,000.
Each unit consists of one Class B voting common share in the capital of the
Company at an issue price of $0.40 and one special warrant (a "Warrant") with an
issue price of $5.60. Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one
convertible preferred share on approval of a class of preferred shares issuable
in series by shareholders at the annual and special meeting of shareholders to
be held on August 30, 2010. The convertible preferred shares will carry an 8%
annual dividend, payable quarterly. Each convertible preferred share will be
convertible at any time during the five year term at the option of the holder
into seven Class A non-voting equity shares. The convertible preferred shares
will be redeemable and retractable at the deemed issue price of $5.60 per
preferred share after five years. If the shareholders do not approve of a class
of preferred shares issuable in series, the Warrants will be convertible into
ten Class A non-voting equity shares. The Class B voting common shares, Warrants
and underlying shares will be subject to a four-month hold period from today's
issue date.


As the transaction represents a Change in Business under the policies of the TSX
Venture Exchange, the continued listing of the Company's shares is subject to
Exchange acceptance of the transaction and disinterested Shareholder approval.
The shares of ComWest are expected to remain halted until such time as the
Company complies with the requirements of the Exchange.


Investors are cautioned that, except as disclosed in the Management Information
Circular and/or Filing Statement to be prepared in connection with the
transaction, any information released or received with respect to the Change of
Business may not be accurate or complete and should not be relied upon. Trading
in the securities of the Company should be considered highly speculative.
