The Company is pleased to announce the appointment of Dale Miller to the position of Chief Operating Officer, effective immediately. Mr. Miller brings over 35 years of Canadian oil and gas operating experience across the Western Canadian Sedimentary basin, building oil and gas companies through production and field development as well as acquisitions and divestments.
Mr. Miller has been engaged to establish and manage Hillcrest’s Canadian oil and gas operations, including the West Hazel field re-activation and additional potential producing Canadian oil and gas properties that may be acquired under the recently announced Strategic Alliance with a private company currently sourcing up to US$50,000,000 funding exclusively for oil and gas acquisitions in Canada with Hillcrest.

Pursuant to the JVA Hillcrest earns a 75% working interest in exchange for incurring 100% of the reactivation costs.

Hillcrest Signs Binding Agreements Forming Strategic Alliance to Pursue Oil and Gas Acquisitions in Western Canada
Momentum Public Relations
Press Release: May 29 2018
Hillcrest Petroleum Ltd . (the “Company” or “Hillcrest”) is pleased to announce that it has signed binding agreements creating a Strategic Alliance (the “Strategic Alliance”) with a private company (the “Partner”) to pursue oil and gas acquisitions in Western Canada. Under the Strategic Alliance, Hillcrest will grant the Partner an exclusive right of first refusal on pre-screened acquisition opportunities to be operated and managed by Hillcrest and will be assigned a 25% carried interest in any acquired assets in exchange for access to its acquisition opportunity register and oil and gas business management services. The Partner will fund 100% of acquisition and development costs.
Hillcrest has compiled a register of potential oil and gas acquisition targets in Western Canada, selected based on criteria including positive operating cash flow from current production operations and the potential to increase the market value of the assets by more than 3x through field development activities. Hillcrest is currently in various stages of discussions with a number of vendors regarding these acquisition targets.
Under the Strategic Alliance, Hillcrest will offer acquisition opportunities to the Partner. Should the Partner elect to pursue one or more of the acquisition opportunities, Hillcrest will facilitate the acquisition on behalf of the Partner, operate the acquired assets under joint venture agreements and implement field development plans intended to maximize the market value of the acquired assets with capital funding provided by the Partner.
The Partner intends to raise up to $50,000,000 to fund potential acquisition and subsequent development of oil and gas assets through an asset secured token offering attached to the acquired oil and gas assets. The Partner has engaged an investment banking and financial services group with specialist expertise in block chain tokens and has initiated activities with them in preparation to market the tokens in the coming weeks.
As previously announced on May 22 nd , and consistent with the terms of the Strategic Alliance, Hillcrest continues to focus on its core business as an oil and gas company with activities directed toward the acquisition, development and management of oil and gas assets.
Highlights of the Strategic Alliance are:
-The Partner has an exclusive first right of refusal to partner with Hillcrest on oil and gas acquisitions in Western Canada identified by Hillcrest.
-The Partner will fund 100% of the acquisition and development costs associated with oil and gas assets.
-Hillcrest will provide oil and gas business management services and will manage and operate assets acquired under the terms of agreements related to the Strategic Alliance between Hillcrest and the Partner.
-Hillcrest will receive a direct 25% carried ownership interest in any assets acquired.
-Hillcrest will receive a management fee and full cost recovery for providing oil and gas business management services to identify, acquire and manage Canadian oil and gas assets, as well as milestone based bonuses and operational performance based bonuses to be agreed with the Partner after assets are acquired.
– The term of the agreements are 5 years, with options to extend.
Don Currie, Hillcrest CEO, states: “The execution of the binding agreements forming this Strategic Alliance with a funding partner is a substantial development for Hillcrest and one that has the ability to fast track our acquisition and development plans. The relationship between the parties will see their capital back our Western Canadian acquisition opportunities, with both parties benefiting as acquisitions are completed and further field development is undertaken to unlock the value in the assets. Assuming the Partner is successful in its financing activities over the coming weeks, Hillcrest would expect to accrue significant short term value increases, at no cost to Hillcrest, through our through carried interest interests in quality oil and gas assets that we have identified and commenced discussions on over the last several months. Further value to Hillcrest could be expected as value is delivered from acquired assets through field development activities managed by Hillcrest and from management fees and various bonus structures under the agreements related to the Strategic Alliance. Another significant benefit, is that Hillcrest will no longer have to consider equity capital raises and/or debt to fund acquisition and development opportunities for growth. We are excited to be aligned with a financial group who recognize and are prepared to invest based on our management team’s extensive experience and track record delivering value from upstream oil and gas projects and who share our belief that this is an excellent time to be acquiring assets in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin.”

Hillcrest Signs Letter Agreement to Negotiate a Strategic Alliance to Pursue Oil and Gas Acquisitions in Western Canada
Momentum Public Relations
Press Release: May 22 2018
Hillcrest Petroleum Ltd. (the “Company” or “Hillcrest”) is pleased to announce that it has signed a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with a private company (the “Partner”) to negotiate and form a strategic alliance (the “Strategic Alliance”) for the purpose of pursuing oil and gas acquisitions in Western Canada. It is anticipated that under the Strategic Alliance, Hillcrest will introduce the Partner to pre-screened acquisition opportunities to be operated and managed by Hillcrest, and the Partner would fund the acquisition and development thereof.
Hillcrest has compiled a register of potential acquisition targets in Western Canada, selected based on criteria including positive operating cash flow from current production operations, and the potential to increase the market value of the assets by more than 3x through field development activities. Hillcrest is currently in discussions with a number of these acquisition targets.
Under the proposed Strategic Alliance, Hillcrest will make these acquisition opportunities available to the Partner. Should the Partner elect to participate in one or more of the acquisition opportunities, Hillcrest will facilitate the acquisition and development of the assets with funding provided by the Partner and operate the acquired assets under joint venture agreements. The Partner intends to raise up to $50,000,000 of funding for potential acquisitions and subsequent development of oil and gas assets through an asset backed token offering attached to the acquired oil and gas assets.
As a result of the Strategic Alliance, Hillcrest is no longer considering asset backed token financings in its own right and will continue focusing on its current business as an oil and gas company with its activities directed toward the acquisition, development and management of oil and gas assets.
It is anticipated that the Strategic Alliance will provide for the following:
- – The Partner will have an exclusive first right of refusal to partner with Hillcrest and fund 100% of the acquisition and development costs associated with oil and gas assets identified by Hillcrest during the term of the Strategic Alliance.
– For any assets which the Partner elects to fund, Hillcrest will manage and operate those assets under the terms of joint venture agreements between Hillcrest and the Partner.
– Hillcrest will receive a 25% carried interest in any assets acquired.
– Hillcrest will receive a management fee and be entitled to recover its out-of-pocket costs for managing the assets.
The parties expect to complete a binding definitive agreement to give effect to the terms of the Letter Agreement by the end of May 2018.
Don Currie, Hillcrest CEO, states: “Hillcrest is excited to have created a working relationship with our potential new partner. The relationship between the parties will see their capital back our Western Canadian acquisition opportunities, with both parties benefiting as acquisitions are completed and further field development is commenced. The immediate value to Hillcrest is that we expect to be able to acquire significant interests in quality oil and gas assets we have identified and commenced discussions on over the last several months without significant equity capital raises, thus minimising shareholder dilution or avoiding it altogether. Our management team has an extensive track record of delivering value from upstream oil and gas projects and we believe this is an excellent time to be acquiring assets in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin.”
The Company has granted an aggregate of 300,000 incentive stock options to a director of the Company for the purchase of common shares exercisable at a price of $0.06 per share until May 1, 2022.

Saskatchewan Joint Venture Project Update
Momentum Public Relations
Press Release: March 12 2018
Hillcrest Petroleum Ltd. (the ” Company ” or ” Hillcrest “) is pleased to announce that the Company has submitted the license documents to the Provincial Regulator that are required in order to commence the re-development of the West Hazel oil pool (“the Field”), located in Western Saskatchewan. Regulatory approval is expected before the end of April after which the Company will undertake field operations with the objective of restoring oil production from the Field to approximately 300 barrels of oil per day (“bopd”).
Further to previous announcements regarding Western Canada oil assets, the Company has executed an agreement where it, via a wholly owned subsidiary and as operator of record for the field, will earn up to a 75% Working Interest. Production restoration operations are expected to commence during the second quarter of this year. Hillcrest commissioned and received a 3 rd party technical report that identifies additional development opportunities within the Field. Both behind-pipe re-completions as well as in-fill drilling potential have been identified, and Hillcrest is planning to pursue production increases from within the Field during the 3 rd and 4 th quarters of 2018.
The primary terms of the agreement regarding the restoration of production of the Field are as follows:
- – The Company, as operator, will earn up to 75% Working Interest in the Field by contributing technical expertise and funding to restore production. Hillcrest’s Working Interest will revert to 50% once the Company has recovered all production restoration costs from the production revenues.- Hillcrest has arranged third party project funding which has been provided on a non-dilutive basis to Hillcrest shareholders. Project funding will be secured by the Assets and by the Company.
– Additional infield development opportunities, such as well re-completions or development drilling locations, are expected to be financed through cash flow from the assets.
“Hillcrest is very pleased that production restoration operations at the West Hazel field in Saskatchewan are imminent.” Don Currie, Hillcrest Petroleum CEO, states: “The project will provide near-term cash flow which may increase if and when we undertake further development operations. The Field was producing over 300 bopd when the former operators suspended production due to cyclically low oil prices. Hillcrest is confident production can be restored to previous levels after which further development will be considered. The Company has a majority working interest in the Field which was obtained at a very attractive cost level. Current commodity prices along with reduced operating expenses are expected to enhance the profitability of the Field. In addition to West Hazel, Hillcrest continues to review and pursue other Western Canada based opportunities and will inform our shareholders as material acquisitions or partnerships occur.,

Hillcrest Offers Clarification on Digital Currency Engagement Agreement
Momentum Public Relations
Press Release: January 29, 2018
Hillcrest Petroleum Ltd. (the ” Company ” or ” Hillcrest “) is pleased to offer a clarification to our news release of January 25 th , 2018, in which the Company announced an engagement agreement with Entoro Capital, LLC (“Entoro”) headquartered in Houston, Texas to undertake a potential digital currency Initial Coin Offering (“ICO”).
The ICO being considered is intended to be an asset-backed energy security coin offering that will utilize the best of breed blockchain technologies for the Canadian energy market and potentially work towards making the Canadian energy sector more innovative.
Hillcrest engaged Entoro as the Company’s agent to provide investment banking, business development and consulting services for potential financing transactions using digital currencies to fund the Company’s business plan, which remains primarily focused on developing oil and gas production in Alberta and Saskatchewan, Canada. The Company believes that an ICO would offer a non-dilutive funding option in addition to other funding options currently available.
ICO and Token Considerations
The Company is not conducting an ICO at this time but may decide to do so in the future. Any ICO would be compliant with relevant securities regulation and require Exchange approvals. If the Company decides to proceed with an ICO, it will determine the terms of such offering, and if such offering may be deemed to be either a security under the Securities Act (British Columbia) or a derivative.
If the ICO is determined to be a security, it will require either a prospectus or an exemption from the prospectus requirement to issue Coins and/or Tokens and to effect trades. The Company may utilize the accredited investors exemption, the offering memorandum exemption or such other exemptions from the prospectus requirement detailed in National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions. There is no assurance that such exemptions will be granted. However, in certain instances the issuance of a Token may be determined to be a derivative if the underlying asset of the Coin is a commodity which is not an investment contract. Until the Company finalizes terms of its ICO, it will be unable to determine for certain if the Token is a security or a derivative.
A Token or Coin issued under an ICO would not give the acquirer equity, other interests or rights in the Company equivalent to a holder of common shares. For example, no rights would be granted to participate in the profits or the distribution of assets of the Company, nor any voting rights in any meeting of the security holders of the Company.
If the Company proceeds with an ICO, it is considered that Tokens and Coins would be issued to investors entitling them to the value attached to a specific amount of oil hydrocarbon produced from Company properties included in the ICO.
The Company only recently established oil production in Canada through its well reactivation program in Saskatchewan and is still in the development planning phase for its Saskatchewan and Alberta properties. An ICO linked to oil and gas production from Hillcrest’s future oil and gas developments will therefore be a speculative investment, with no time frame defined for when commercial production from the Company’s current and future oil and gas properties and projects will commence. Reserves reports from competent 3 rd parties on the Company’s oil and gas assets and potential future acquisitions are not yet available. The Company intends to commission and provide relevant reports for an ICO as appropriate.
If the Company proceeds with an ICO, then cash will be received for Token and Coin issuances. These will be recorded as liabilities in its financial statements, which will require the delivery of hydrocarbons if commercial production is achieved. Hillcrest shareholders should be aware that, depending on the terms of a Token or Coin issuance, Token or Coin holders will be entitled to receive value in hydrocarbons produced from Company properties included in the ICO, if and when commercial production is achieved. After redemptions of hydrocarbons are satisfied, remaining oil and gas production would be available for the Company to sell. The Company does not intend to create our own platform for the trading of any potential Tokens or Coins.
The Company and Entoro will work together to seek funding to back the proposal and to eventually develop the currency program. The Company intends to utilize the expertise of Entoro Capital LLC and their respective contacts in establishing a potential ICO.
In addition to the above, the Company recently announced a private placement offering of $525,000 and will deploy any funds raised in the offering as outlined in previous press releases, i.e. for further development of its previously announced assets and acquisitions and for general working capital purposes. Further, the Company continues to pursue its stated goal to build value through the acquisition and development of oil and gas assets in Alberta and Saskatchewan.
“Hillcrest is excited to be working with Entoro Capital and jointly pursuing an ICO as an alternate form of financing which could result in additional value for the Company” states Hillcrest CEO Don Currie. “The investment community has been extremely supportive of alternate currencies and Hillcrest looks forward to participating in this new and rapidly evolving investment process. The Company intends to use Western Canadian reserves and production as the value basis for an ICO and will be better placed to attract a broader spectrum of investors. An ICO is considered to be a particularly effective funding alternative for Hillcrest as it may provide access to substantial capital funding to deliver value growth from our existing and new Western Canadian oil and gas projects, without exposing existing shareholders to potential dilution through conventional equity funding. Parallel to the Company working with Entoro, management will continue to focus on the well workover program and potential future drilling program announced with Westcore as well as commencing operations on Western Canadian assets, as previously announced. We will inform our shareholders as developments and material events occur.”

Hillcrest Provides Shareholder Update
Momentum Public Relations
Press Release: November 16, 2017
Hillcrest Petroleum Ltd. (the ” Company ” or ” Hillcrest “) is pleased to provide the following Company update to our shareholders.
As previously announced on May 10, 2017, Hillcrest signed a binding Joint Venture Agreement (the “JV Agreement”) with a Canadian oil and gas company (“Juniorco”) whereby the Company, via a wholly owned subsidiary, will earn up to a 75{92d3d6fd85a76c012ea375328005e518e768e12ace6b1722b71965c2a02ea7ce} Working Interest and operate two petroleum assets located in Western Canada (the “Fields”). The Company expects to restore combined production from the Fields to approximately 400 barrels of oil per day (“bopd”) by providing capital funding and technical expertise.
Over the past few months, Hillcrest has been working with a Calgary based engineering firm to develop plans to optimise production and reliability for both the Alberta and Saskatchewan field reactivations.
Hillcrest has been approved as operator in Alberta and anticipates Saskatchewan approval by the end of the month. Upon approval by the Saskatchewan regulator, the Company intends to immediately commence activity to restore production in the West Hazel Field. West Hazel has 4 producing oil wells and one salt water disposal well and represents approximately 75{92d3d6fd85a76c012ea375328005e518e768e12ace6b1722b71965c2a02ea7ce} of the previous combined production of both fields. In addition, 10 well recompletions, 3 additional well reactivations and 3 identified drilling locations have been identified as further upside to increase production as soon as the field is restored to steady state production.
Aside from the field reactivations above, Hillcrest has been actively pursuing multiple acquisition opportunities and Joint Venture partnerships in coordination with our Merchant Banker, WC Capital Inc., under previously announced arrangements.
The Company is targeting a number of short term production opportunities similar in scope to the field reactivations and a number of larger acquisition opportunities where substantial value can be delivered by applying technical and commercial expertise in assets with dominant operating positions in their respective areas.
If successful, these larger, transformational, opportunities would provide significant cash flow immediately upon acquisition and value multiples of the acquisition price within 2 to 4 years through further field development. Non-binding Letters of Intent (“LOIs”) have been submitted for two of these larger opportunities.
Additional information will be provided should the LOIs progress to a binding stage and as arrangements are firmed up for the other production opportunities.
