CORRECTION FROM SOURCE: Corridor Locks in Strong Prices for Q1 2013 on Two-Thirds of Production


HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA--(Marketwire - Dec. 17, 2012) -

This press release is an amended press release to the one issued at 8:28 am (ET) today to correct a typographical error in the original press release.

Corridor Resources Inc. ("Corridor") (TSX:CDH) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a forward sale agreement for 6,000 mmbtu per day from January 1, 2013 to March 31, 2013, which represents approximately two-thirds of its estimated Q1 2013 production, at an average price of $US8.52/mmbtu. Corridor's remaining production will be sold at daily market prices which are expected to be strong during Q1 2013 due to the high basis differential in the New England markets. As a result, Corridor forecasts a cash flow from operations of approximately $3.7 million for Q1 2013. This forward sale agreement will ensure Corridor achieves a much higher cash flow from operations for 2013 compared to Corridor's 2012 forecasted cash flows.

In addition, Corridor averaged a natural gas sales price of approximately $US6.70/mmbtu for its November 2012 production. Reflecting higher natural gas prices in October and November, Corridor has increased its forecasted cash flow from operations for 2012 from $3 million to $4 million.

"These prices are a good indication of the strategic location of Corridor's existing production at the McCully Field and the Frederick Brook shale gas play in New Brunswick and the effective pipeline connection to premium markets priced in New England" said Phil Knoll, CEO of Corridor. "Corridor's ability to access premium markets creates a strategic advantage for Corridor's on-going natural gas development in New Brunswick".

Corridor is an Eastern Canadian junior resource company engaged in the exploration for and development and production of petroleum and natural gas onshore in New Brunswick and Québec and offshore in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Corridor currently has natural gas reserves and production in the McCully Field near Sussex, New Brunswick and discovered crude oil reserves in the Caledonia Field near Sussex, New Brunswick in 2008. In addition, Corridor has contingent resources and discovered resources of shale gas in Elgin, New Brunswick.
