Crown Minerals and Gold Summit Announce Finalization of Arrangement Agreement

   Crown Minerals Inc. ("Crown") (TSX VENTURE: CWM) and Gold Summit Corporation ("Gold Summit") (TSX VENTURE: GSM) are pleased to announce today the finalization and delivery of a binding arrangement agreement to merge the two companies as previously announced on April 15, 2010.

Under the terms of the transaction, structured as a Plan of Arrangement (the "Arrangement"), Crown and Gold Summit will amalgamate to form "Amalco". Each one (1) Gold Summit share will be exchanged for one and sixty-five hundredths (1.65) Amalco shares and each one (1) Crown share will be exchanged for one (1) Amalco share. Based on the current 15,374,218 issued and outstanding common shares of Gold Summit (on a non-diluted basis) and the current 37,841,632 issued and outstanding common shares of Crown (on a non-diluted basis), the number of Amalco common shares following completion of the Arrangement is expected to be 63,209,091. Current Crown shareholders will own 59.87% of Amalco (on a non-diluted basis) and current Gold Summit shareholders will own 40.13% of Amalco (on a non-diluted basis).

Each of Crown's and Gold Summit's board of directors have reviewed the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, including their companies' respective share exchange ratios, and unanimously determined that the Arrangement is in the best interests of their respective companies. Accordingly, both Crown's and Gold Summit's boards of directors unanimously recommend that Crown and Gold Summit shareholders vote in favor of the Arrangement.

Completion of the Arrangement is subject to, among other things, receipt of approval from Crown's and Gold Summit's shareholders, receipt of an interim order and a final order of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice approving the Arrangement and receipt of all regulatory approvals.

Crown and Gold Summit are preparing a joint information circular describing the Arrangement to be distributed to shareholders of Crown and Gold Summit. Annual and special meetings of each of Crown and Gold Summit (the "Meetings"), at which the Arrangement will be submitted for approval to the shareholders, are expected to be held in late August 2010. If approved, the Arrangement is expected to close shortly thereafter.

There can be no assurance that the Arrangement will be completed as proposed or at all. Readers are cautioned that, except as disclosed in the joint information circular of Crown and Gold Summit to be prepared in connection with the Meetings, any information released or received with respect to the Arrangement may not be accurate or complete and should not be relied upon.
