IEMR Closes Convertible Note Financing With Related Party; Amends Terms of Convertible Note Financing

IEMR Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:IRI) ("IEMR" or the "Company") wishes to
announce that further to its press release dated December 22, 2011, the Company
has borrowed (the "Financing") the principal sum of US$800,000 (the "Principal")
from, and issued an unsecured convertible note (the "Convertible Note") in
respect of such indebtedness to, International Energy and Mineral Resources
Investment Company Limited (Hong Kong) (the "Lender"). The Convertible Note has
a term of two years (the "Maturity Date") from the closing date (the "Closing
Date"). At the option of the Lender, the Convertible Note is convertible into
common shares of the Company ("Common Shares") at a price of US$0.10 per Common
Share (the Company and the Lender increased the conversion price from US$0.07 to
US$0.10 per Common Share), in whole or in part, at any time during the term of
the Convertible Note. The Convertible Note is to bear interest on the
outstanding Principal from the Closing Date to the Maturity Date at a rate of 6%
per annum, payable on the earlier of the Maturity Date or the date of conversion
of the Principal amount outstanding.


The Company requires the Financing to pay US$800,000 owing to Mosquito
Consolidated Gold Mines Limited ("Mosquito") on account of exploration work that
Mosquito performed on the Pine Tree Property on behalf of the Company. The
Company intends to conduct a private placement in 2012 to repay the Principal.


The Lender is a "Related Party" of the Company pursuant to the TSX Venture
Exchange policies, as Mr. Hongxue Fu, President, Chief Executive Officer and a
director of the Company, holds a controlling interest in the Lender. As such,
the Financing constitutes a "Related Party Transaction" under the policies of
the TSX Venture Exchange.


The Financing and the terms of the Convertible Note were unanimously approved by
the Board of Directors of the Company, other than Hongxue Fu, who declared his
interest in the Financing and abstained from voting with respect to the
Financing and the documents and transactions related thereto. The directors
eligible to vote with respect to the Financing believe that the terms of the
Financing are in accordance with available market rates and is in the best
interests of the Company. If the Principal is converted in full, Hongxue Fu and
the Lender will increase their collective shareholdings in the Company from
10,371,357 common shares (currently approximately 40.50% of the issued and
outstanding common shares) to 18,371,357 common shares (which would represent
approximately 54.67% of the issued and outstanding common shares).


The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority
approval requirements which are available to the Company.


The securities issued in the Financing are subject to a four month hold period
in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.
