Cordy Announces Rights Offering

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Sept. 20, 2016) -

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES OR OVER UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES.

Cordy Oilfield Services Inc. ("Cordy" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:CKK) announces that it will be offering rights (the "Rights Offering") to holders of its common shares (the "Common Shares") of record at the close of business on September 26, 2016 (the "Record Date"), on the basis of one Right for each Common Share held. The Rights Offering will be conducted only in the provinces and territories of Canada. Each Right will entitle the holder thereof to subscribe for one Common Share upon payment of the subscription price of $0.015 per Common Share until 4:30 p.m. (Calgary time) on October 21, 2016 (the "Expiry Time"). The Rights Offering will be conducted only in the provinces and territories of Canada (the "Eligible Jurisdictions"). Accordingly, and subject to the detailed provisions of Cordy's rights offering circular in respect of the Rights Offering (the "Circular"), Rights will not be delivered to, nor will they be exercisable by, persons resident outside the Eligible Jurisdictions.

Shareholders who fully exercise their Rights will be entitled to subscribe for additional Common Shares, if available, that were not subscribed for by other holders of Rights prior to the Expiry Time. The rights will not be listed on any stock exchange and no market is expected to develop for the rights.

In connection with the Rights Offering, the Company has entered into a stand-by purchase agreement (the "Stand-By Agreement") with certain insiders and other persons (the "Stand-By Purchasers") who together currently own, directly or indirectly, or exercise control or direction over, approximately less than one percent of Cordy's Common Shares. Under the Stand-By Purchase Agreement, the Stand-By Purchasers have agreed to subscribe for, and the Company has agreed to issue, all of the Common Shares offered under the Rights Offering that are not otherwise purchased by Shareholders. The Stand-By Purchase Agreement was approved by the independent directors of the Company.

There are currently 85,953,810 Common Shares issued and outstanding. Assuming the exercise of (i) all Rights or (ii) the entire take-up of the stand-by commitment only, the Rights Offering will raise net proceeds of approximately $1,252,307, after deducting estimated expenses of the Rights Offering of approximately $37,000. Cordy intends to use the net proceeds of the Rights Offering to fund working capital for its continuing operations.

Complete details of the Rights Offering will be set out in the Circular and the rights offering notice (the "Notice"), which will be available under the Company's profile at www.sedar.com. The Notice and Accompanying rights certificate (the "Rights Certificate") will be mailed to each registered Shareholder (the "Registered Shareholder") resident in the Eligible Jurisdiction as at the Record Date. Registered Shareholders who wish to exercise their Rights must complete and forward the Rights Certificate, together with applicable funds, to Computershare Investor Services Inc., the depositary for the Rights Offering, on or before the Expiry Time. Shareholders who own their Common Shares through an intermediary, such as a bank, trust company, securities dealer or broker, will receive materials and instructions from their intermediary.
