Toro Oil & Gas Ltd. Announces Initial Closing of Production Volume Royalty Agreement with Source Rock Royalties Ltd.

July 16, 20155:44 PM CNW

Commences 2015 First Phase Drilling Program

CALGARY, July 16, 2015 /CNW/ – Toro Oil & Gas Ltd. (TSXV: TOO) (“Toro” or the “Company”) has closed  the previously announced binding production volume royalty (“PVR”) to Source Rock Royalties Ltd. (“Source Rock”) for gross proceeds of $8 million. The additional $4 million PVR with Source Rock is targeted to close on or around July 31, 2015, for total proceeds of $12 million. The total proceeds will be used to fund the Company’s 2015 drilling program and for general corporate purposes.

The Company is also pleased to announce the commencement of its $10 million first phase 2015 drilling program in the Hamilton Lake and Consort areas.  Toro plans to drill a program of low-risk development and flow-through eligible oil wells in this initial phase.  As a result of the current commodity price environment, the Company has observed significant reductions in drilling and completion costs and anticipates continued capital efficiencies throughout its entire drilling program.  The results from this program are expected to be released before the end of the third quarter 2015.

“We are encouraged with the prospects of Toro’s first round of drilling in the Alberta Viking light oil fairway.  By implementing horizontal drilling paired with the latest completion technology we look forward to the first phase drilling results on this high-quality asset base that is largely undeveloped to date,” commented Barry Olson, President and CEO.

Toro currently holds greater than 125 net sections of land in the Viking light oil fairway.

In conjunction with the closing of the PVR, Toro has reconstituted its total $25 million credit facility to be comprised solely of a development line.  Previously, the $25 million total credit facility consisted of a $10 million development line and a $15 million operating line.  The composition of the overall credit facility will be re-examined upon completion of Toro’s first phase drilling program.   As of this date, no amounts are drawn under the credit facility.
