Corridor Enters Into Additional Forward Sale Resulting in Significant Netback


HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA--(Marketwired - Dec. 6, 2013) - Corridor Resources Inc. ("Corridor") (TSX:CDH) announced today that it has entered into a forward sale agreement for the period January 1, 2014 to February 28, 2014 for an average of 2,370 mmbtu per day of natural gas (approximately 2.2 mmscf per day). This sale is at an average price of $US15.48/mmbtu, resulting in a netback of approximately $CAD12.50/mscf. This sale, combined with the previous forward sale announced on October 22, 2013, covers approximately 55% of Corridor's estimated production for the first quarter of 2014. Corridor's remaining production will be sold at daily market prices which are expected to be strong during this period due to the high basis differential in the New England markets.

"This additional forward sale agreement further demonstrates the exceptional premiums that Corridor's production can obtain during peaking periods, and on a yearly average basis, in the New England market. This forward sale agreement will result in strong cash flow from operations for Corridor's first quarter of 2014" said Phillip Knoll, President and CEO of Corridor. "Our projected first quarter cash flow from operations, combined with our existing cash balance, should provide substantially all of the funds required to undertake our planned 2014 drilling program at the McCully Field. The planned 2014 drilling program will provide Corridor with additional future cash flows and should also increase the economic development potential for our Frederick Brook shale play." The 2014 drilling program is subject to the availability of equipment and regulatory approvals.

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 production and reserves in the McCully Field near Sussex, New Brunswick and crude oil reserves in the Caledonia Field near Sussex, New Brunswick. In addition, Corridor has contingent resources and discovered resources in Elgin, New Brunswick and undiscovered resources on Anticosti Island, Québec where Corridor has ongoing exploration projects.
