CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Dec 20, 2013) - Kelt Exploration Ltd. ("Kelt" or the "Company") (TSX:KEL) has completed the previously announced acquisition of certain crude oil and natural gas assets located at Pouce Coupe/Spirit River (the "Acquisition"), in close proximity to the Company's core producing areas at Grande Cache and Karr in west central Alberta. The Acquisition has an effective date of October 1, 2013.

The consideration paid by Kelt was $191,960,000, before closing adjustments, and was financed by existing cash on hand and cash proceeds from the private placement equity financings described in more detail below. Rights of first refusal ("ROFRs") relating to certain assets in the amount of $40,000 were exercised. ROFRs exercised relate to 477 net acres of land of which 246 net acres are classified as undeveloped. There is no production or reserves associated with the ROFR lands.

In connection with the Acquisition, Kelt recently announced that it had completed brokered and non-brokered private placement offerings for an aggregate 12.4 million subscription receipts of Kelt ("Subscription Receipts") at a price of $8.15 per Subscription Receipt, for gross aggregate proceeds of $101.06 million.

The gross proceeds from the sale of subscription receipts were released from escrow in connection with the completion of the Acquisition. As a result, 12.4 million common shares of Kelt were issued in exchange for the Subscription Receipts, for no additional consideration. After giving effect to this issue, the Company currently has 110.0 million common shares issued and outstanding.

The Company has put in place a $100.0 million demand loan credit facility with its bank, National Bank of Canada. Upon closing of the Acquisition and the equity financing private placements, the Company currently has not drawn any amounts on its credit facility.
