THIS NEWS RELEASE IS NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES Rift Basin Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE:RIF) (the "Company" or "Rift Basin") is pleased to announce, further to its news release of January 2, 2013 (the "January News Release"), that the Company has cleared the required preliminary documents with the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSX-V") in connection with the definitive farmin agreement for the Chorbane exploration permit (the "Acquisition"); accordingly, the TSX-V has confirmed that the Company's stock halt will be lifted. The Company expects trading to resume at market open on Thursday (January 10, 2013). The Acquisition is the Company's first acquisition of an oil and gas asset. The transaction is defined as a "Fundamental Acquisition" (TSX-V Policy 5.3) and remains subject to a number of conditions, including but not limited to final TSX-V approval. ETAP, the Tunisian state-owned entity responsible for the petroleum sector and the state's partnerships with foreign exploration and production operators, has approved the Acquisition as detailed in our January News Release. The Chorbane exploration permit is located onshore central Tunisia near the port city of Sfax, and is surrounded by several producing oil and gas fields and extensive infrastructure. London-based Gulfsands Petroleum plc (AIM:GPX) ("Gulfsands"), the Company's strategic partner (as announced in the Company's news release of November 16, 2012), is increasing its own participating interest in the permit, subject to various regulatory approvals, to ultimately hold a 70% participating interest and be the Operator. Commenting on this announcement, Wayne Koshman, Rift Basin's CEO, said "We are pleased to be acquiring an interest in this Tunisian permit with our strategic partner as the proposed operator. Our alliance with Gulfsands will facilitate the pursuit and acquisition of additional oil and gas projects in Tunisia and elsewhere in the Middle East and North Africa. We are planning for a significant increase in corporate activity during 2013." For further details on the Acquisition please see the Company's news release dated December 21, 2012 (the "December News Release", a copy of which is available, along with the Resource Report on the Acquisition, under the Company's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com). There can be no assurance that the Acquisition will be completed as proposed or at all. In the December News Release the Company also announced a private placement (the "Offering") for gross proceeds of up to $1,100,000. The Company is proceeding with the Offering and expects to close the same following resumption of trading and receipt of final documentation.
