CWV Crown Point Energy Inc

Crown Point Energy Inc. (“Crown Point” or the “Company”) announces that its board of directors (the "Board") has determined to seek the approval of the holders (the "Shareholders") of its common shares ("Shares") to reduce the stated capital of its Shares by up to US$0.185 per Share (up to approximately US$13.5 million in aggregate) to permit the Company to pay a special distribution to shareholders (collectively, the "Return of Capital").

At June 30, 2019, the Company had working capital of approximately US$18 million, the majority of which was derived from the sale by the Company in April 2019 of a 16.8251% participating interest in the Rio Cullen, Las Violetas and La Angostura hydrocarbon exploitation concessions located in the Tierra del Fuego region of the Austral basin in southern Argentina.  In light of the Company's strong cash flows, this is considerably more working capital than the Company requires to fund its ongoing operations.

Although the Company has been reviewing opportunities to redeploy its excess working capital in Argentina, the Board has determined to seek Shareholder approval for a Return of Capital to give the Company the flexibility to return capital to Shareholders if the Board ultimately determines that doing so is in the best interests of the Company and Shareholders.

If Shareholder and regulatory approvals are obtained, the Board will have the discretion to determine the timing and amount of any such Return of Capital having regard to the Company's working capital requirements and business development opportunities.  The Board will also have the discretion to determine not to proceed with the Return of Capital and to rescind the resolutions passed by Shareholders.  The Company expects that any Return of Capital would generally be more tax advantageous to Shareholders than a dividend.

A special meeting of Shareholders (the "Special Meeting") will be held on October 30, 2019 to consider the Return of Capital.  Shareholders of record on September 30, 2019 will be entitled to receive notice of and attend the Special Meeting and vote thereat.  A management information circular relating to the Special Meeting will be mailed to Shareholders in early October.
