Southern Arc Purchases Additional Shares and Warrants in Eagle Hill Exploration

Southern Arc Minerals (TSX VENTURE:SA)(OTCQX:SOACF) ("Southern Arc") today
announced that the Company has purchased additional shares and warrants in Eagle
Hill Exploration Corporation ("Eagle Hill") (TSX VENTURE:EAG)(OTCQX:EHECF).
Eagle Hill is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on the exploration
and development of the high-grade Windfall Lake Gold Deposit, located between
Val-d'Or and Chibougamau in Quebec. 


As part of Eagle Hill's non-brokered private placement of up to $3.5 million
(the "Offering") announced on April 22, 2014, Southern Arc has purchased 20
million units at $0.05 per unit for an investment of $1,000,000. Each unit
consists of one common share (a "Share") of Eagle Hill and one share purchase
warrant (a "Warrant") of Eagle Hill. Each Warrant entitles Southern Arc to
acquire one Share at a price of $0.08 until May 8, 2016. The Shares and Warrants
were acquired by Southern Arc in reliance on the accredited investor exemption
of National Instrument 45-106, as Southern Arc has net assets of at least $5
million as shown on its most recently prepared financial statements. The Shares,
Warrants, and Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are subject to a
four-month hold period expiring on September 9, 2014. Proceeds from this portion
of the Offering will be used for Eagle Hill's general working capital.


In August 2013, Southern Arc invested $7,324,050 to acquire 97,654,000 shares of
Eagle Hill and 48,827,000 warrants of Eagle Hill exercisable at a price of $0.10
until August 14, 2017. In April 2014, Southern Arc invested $526,316 to acquire
7,518,797 shares of Eagle Hill and 7,518,797 warrants of Eagle Hill exercisable
at a price of $0.10 until April 8, 2016. Following today's investment, Southern
Arc owns 125,172,797 shares and 76,345,797 warrants of Eagle Hill, representing
26.7% of Eagle Hill's issued and outstanding shares. If all Eagle Hill options
and warrants are exercised, Southern Arc would hold a 31.7% interest in Eagle
Hill on a fully diluted basis. Dundee Corporation ("Dundee") (TSX:DC.A) has also
purchased 20 million units as part of the Offering, and currently owns 30.0 % of
Eagle Hill on an undiluted basis, and 30.1% on a fully diluted basis.
