NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES.

DEETHREE EXPLORATION LTD. (“DeeThree” or the “Company“) (DTX.TO)(DTHRF) is pleased to announce that its current syndicate of lenders have committed to an increase to the Company’s credit facility to $135 million from $90 million. The increase in the credit facility is expected to be finalized in late April 2013.

As a result of better than expected, and generally improving, drilling results, the Company has increased its guidance for 2013 as follows:

The Company has increased its 2013 capital expenditure budget primarily to expand facility infrastructure to accommodate future oil production increases in the Company’s two core oil fields, the Brazeau Belly River and the Ferguson Alberta Bakken. In particular, the Company has commenced the process for the construction of a new 6″ main pipeline at Brazeau to transport oil and natural gas from its farm-in lands to existing Company-owned infrastructure. This pipeline is anticipated to be completed in August 2013. At Ferguson, the Company is presently constructing a new oil battery that will have an initial capacity of 8,000 bbl/d with provisions for expansion. This battery is anticipated to be completed in July 2013.

BOE Presentation. References herein to “boe” mean barrels of oil equivalent derived by converting gas to oil in the ratio of six thousand cubic feet (Mcf) of gas to one barrel (bbl) of oil. Boe may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf: 1 bbl is based on an energy conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
