CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Dec. 31, 2014) -

NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

DIVERGENT Energy Services Corp. (the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:DVG) announces that, subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"), it has amended the terms of its previously issued 10% secured, subordinated debentures (the "Debentures") to (i) extend the maturity date of the Debentures from December 31, 2014 to December 31, 2015 and (ii) make the Debentures transferable in certain circumstances (collectively, the "Amendments").

The Amendments were approved by extraordinary resolution of the holders of Debentures (the "Debentureholders") effective December 24, 2014 and the Corporation has entered into a supplemental indenture dated December 30, 2014 with Computershare Trust Company of Canada, as Debenture trustee, to reflect the Amendments.

In addition, the Corporation has, subject to the final approval of the TSXV, amended the terms of the common share purchase warrants that were issued as part of a unit with each Debenture to make such warrants transferable in certain circumstances.

In consideration for the Debentureholders approving the Amendments, the Corporation has agreed, subject to the final approval of the TSXV, to issue to each Debentureholder an additional 500 common share purchase warrants for each $1,000 principal amount of Debentures held by such Debentureholder ("Additional Warrants"), for an aggregate of 2,875,000 Additional Warrants, each Additional Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one common share in the capital of the Corporation at an exercise price of $0.20 on or before December 31, 2016.

The Corporation has agreed to pay Wolverton Securities Ltd. ("Wolverton"), the agent for the original private placement of Debentures, a fee of $190,000 plus applicable G.S.T. pursuant to a services agreement to assist in relation to the Amendments. The Corporation has also agreed to reimburse Wolverton for its reasonable expenses incurred in conjunction with the foregoing, including the fees and disbursements of its legal counsel.
