NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER OF THE SECURITIES DESCRIBED HEREIN. Penfold Capital Acquisition II Corporation (TSX VENTURE:PAC.P), a capital pool company ("Penfold" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce that it has entered into an arm's length binding letter agreement (the "Agreement") dated March 22, 2010 with EagleRidge Minerals Ltd. ("EagleRidge"), pursuant to which Penfold will, subject to a number of conditions, acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of EagleRidge. The transaction will constitute the Company's qualifying transaction (the "Qualifying Transaction") under the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"). Following completion of the Qualifying Transaction, it is anticipated that the resulting issuer (the "Resulting Issuer") will be a Tier 2 mining exploration company. Terms of Acquisition Pursuant to the Agreement, Penfold has agreed to form a new corporation ("Newco") for the purpose of amalgamating with EagleRidge. Newco will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and will be created under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). As consideration for the amalgamation of EagleRidge and Newco, holders of common shares in the capital of EagleRidge ("EagleRidge Shares") will be entitled to receive one (1) common shares in the capital of Penfold (a "Penfold Share") for each one (1) EagleRidge Share. The foregoing EagleRidge Shares will be issued at an ascribed price of $0.25 per Penfold Share. Penfold has 3,500,000 Penfold Shares issued and outstanding, 350,000 stock options exercisable at a price of $0.20 per Penfold Share and 150,000 agent's options exercisable at a price of $0.20 per Penfold Share. EagleRidge currently has 32,763,809 EagleRidge Shares and 2,994,613 EagleRidge Share purchase warrants issued and outstanding. The principal stakeholders of Eagleridge are MineralFields Group (division of Pathway Asset Management), which is based in Toronto, Vancouver and Calgary, that holds approximately a 20.2% interest in the issued and outstanding EagleRidge Shares, and Central Consolidated Resources Inc., a Manitoba based private company, that holds approximately a 14.8% interest in the issued and outstanding EagleRidge Shares. Robert Freeman (of Newfoundland) holds a controlling interest in Central Consolidated Resources Inc. Upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction, all securities convertible into EagleRidge Shares will become securities convertible into Penfold Shares on the same exchange basis as described above. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, completion of the Qualifying Transaction will be subject to a number of conditions, including receipt of gross proceeds of not less than $3.5 million pursuant to the QT Financing (as defined and described below), completion or waiver of sponsorship, receipt of all required regulatory approvals, including the approval of the Exchange of the Qualifying Transaction, completion of all due diligence reviews, satisfaction of the Minimum Listing Requirements of the Exchange and all requirements under the Exchange rules relating to completion of a "Qualifying Transaction", and execution of a definitive amalgamation agreement. In connection with the execution of the Agreement, EagleRidge has provided a non-refundable deposit in the amount of $10,000 to Penfold. The proposed Qualifying Transaction is not a "Non-Arm's length qualifying transaction" within the meaning of Policy 2.4 of the Exchange and, as such, shareholder approval is not required, unless otherwise required by the Exchange. Sponsorship of a qualifying transaction of a capital pool company is required by the Exchange, unless exempt in accordance with Exchange policies. Penfold intends to apply for an exemption from sponsorship requirements, however, there is no assurance that Penfold will obtain this exemption. A filing statement in respect of the proposed Qualifying Transaction will be prepared and filed in accordance with Policy 2.4 of the Exchange on SEDAR at www.sedar.com no less than seven business days prior to the closing of the proposed Qualifying Transaction. A press release will be issued once the filing statement has been filed, as required pursuant to Exchange policies. QT Financing It is expected that concurrent with the completion of the Qualifying Transaction, EagleRidge will also complete a brokered private placement of up to $3.5 million worth of EagleRidge securities (the "QT Financing"). The terms of the QT Financing are to be determined. It is expected that Kingsdale Capital Markets Inc. will act as an agent (the "Agent) in the QT Financing and will receive a cash commission (the "Agent's Commission") equal to 7.5% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised through the QT Financing and non-assignable broker warrants (the "Broker Warrants") to purchase that number of EagleRidge securities equal to 10% of the number of EagleRidge sold under the QT Financing (but only 5% of the number of EagleRidge securities sold to investors on the President's list). The net proceeds of the QT Financing will be used by the Resulting Issuer to pay costs associated with the closing of the Qualifying Transaction and the QT Financing, to finance EagleRidge's exploration properties, with the primarily focus on the Hannes Gold Project (as defined below), and for general working capital purposes.
