TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Nov. 5, 2012) -

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES. ANY FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS RESTRICTION MAY CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF U.S. SECURITIES LAWS.

Foxpoint Capital Corp. ("Foxpoint") (TSX VENTURE:FXC.H), a capital pool company listed on the NEX board (the "NEX") of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") is pleased to announce its signing of an acquisition agreement (the "Acquisition Agreement") whereby Foxpoint will acquire by means of amalgamation involving 2308800 Ontario Inc. ("Foxpoint Subco", a wholly-owned subsidiary of Foxpoint), all of the issued and outstanding common shares (the "Telegraph Shares") in the capital of Telegraph Gold Inc. ("Telegraph") (the "Transaction").

Foxpoint, Foxpoint Subco and Telegraph terminated an initial acquisition agreement, which was previously announced on January 23, 2012 (the "Initial Acquisition Agreement"). On September 6, 2012, Telegraph completed the acquisition of the Castle Mountain venture. Due to this acquisition and changes in the circumstances with respect to Foxpoint and Telegraph, it was decided that it was in the best interests of both parties to terminate the Initial Acquisition Agreement. The Acquisition Agreement reflects the new circumstances referred to above, including, among other things, Telegraph's recent acquisition of the Castle Mountain venture and the elimination of a share consolidation of Foxpoint.

Prior to closing of the Transaction, the Acquisition Agreement contemplates Telegraph completing a financing to raise gross proceeds of a minimum of $500,000 and up to $15,000,000 (the "Telegraph Financing").

The Transaction, if completed, will be structured as a three-cornered amalgamation (the "Amalgamation") and is intended to constitute Foxpoint's "Qualifying Transaction", as such term is defined pursuant to Exchange Policy 2.4. Upon completion of the Transaction, all of the issued and outstanding Telegraph Shares (including those issued pursuant to the Telegraph Financing) will be exchanged for common shares (the "Foxpoint Shares") in the capital of Foxpoint. Each shareholder of Telegraph (each, a "Telegraph Shareholder") will receive one Foxpoint Share in exchange for each Telegraph Share (the "Exchange Ratio"). All convertible securities in the capital of Telegraph, including common share purchase warrants and all outstanding options to purchase Telegraph Shares, will be exchanged for convertible securities of Foxpoint in accordance with the Exchange Ratio. The precise number of securities to be issued by Foxpoint to acquire Telegraph is unknown at this time and will depend on the final size and terms of the Telegraph Financing.

Upon or immediately prior to completion of the Transaction, Foxpoint's name will be changed (the "Name Change") to "Telegraph Gold Corp." (the "Resulting Issuer"). The entity resulting from the Amalgamation will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Resulting Issuer, which will own, directly or indirectly, all of the mining claims that comprise the Telegraph Gold Project and Castle Mountain Project (as defined below), as well as the Mt. Vernon claims. Shareholder approval for the name change was obtained at Foxpoint's annual and special meeting of shareholders (the "Foxpoint Shareholders") on March 14, 2012. In connection with the Transaction, Foxpoint will apply for the Resulting Issuer to be listed on the Exchange as a Tier 1 mining issuer.

Foxpoint will hold a special meeting of Foxpoint Shareholders (the "Meeting") to vote on the Transaction (the "Transaction Resolution"). The Transaction Resolution must be approved by an affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast by Foxpoint Shareholders present in person or by proxy in respect of the Transaction Resolution at the Meeting, excluding the votes of Fraser Buchan and Robert Buchan, who are related parties, and whose 1,450,000 common shares of Foxpoint will be excluded from the vote. Telegraph Shareholder approval of the Amalgamation will also be obtained at a special meeting of Telegraph Shareholders.

The Transaction remains subject to satisfaction or waiver of conditions set out in the Acquisition Agreement, including the following: (i) approval of the Transaction by Foxpoint Shareholders; (ii) approval of the Amalgamation by Telegraph Shareholders; (iii) conditional approval of the Transaction by the Exchange; (iv) receipt of all required or desirable regulatory approvals, consents and waivers; (v) completion of the Telegraph Financing; and (vi) compliance with all other applicable regulatory requirements and conditions. As of the date of this press release, Foxpoint Shareholder approval of the Name Change and the election of the board of directors of the Resulting Issuer have been obtained.

Proposed Telegraph Financing

The Acquisition Agreement contemplates Telegraph completing a financing to raise gross proceeds of a minimum of $500,000 and up to $15,000,000.

Effect of the Transaction

Following completion of the Transaction, the Resulting Issuer intends to carry on the business currently operated by Telegraph and its efforts will be directed at continuing to advance the exploration, development and future production activities at the Telegraph Gold Project and Castle Mountain Project. The net proceeds from the Transaction, including the Telegraph Financing, will be used to fund the recommended exploration programs for the Telegraph Gold Project and the Castle Mountain Project, respectively, as described in the circular, to pay for costs associated with the Transaction and the Telegraph Financing and for general working capital and corporate purposes.

Interests of Related Parties - Related Party Transaction

Although the Transaction is not considered to be a Non Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction within the meaning of Exchange Policy 2.4, it is considered a "related party transaction" for the purposes of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101") since Fraser Buchan, currently the President, Chief Executive Officer and a director of Foxpoint, owns 2,333,333 Telegraph Shares (approximately 5% of the issued and outstanding Telegraph Shares) and Robert Buchan, a greater than 10% Foxpoint Shareholder, owns 500,000 Telegraph Shares (approximately 1% of the issued and outstanding Telegraph Shares). Collectively, Fraser Buchan and Robert Buchan own approximately 2,833,333 Telegraph Shares prior to giving effect to the Telegraph Financing. Fraser Buchan and Robert Buchan also each own 725,000 Foxpoint Shares (approximately 17% of the issued and outstanding Foxpoint Shares, respectively). As such, Minority Approval of the Transaction is required by Foxpoint Shareholders. After giving effect to the Transaction and the Telegraph Financing, Fraser Buchan and Robert Buchan will collectively own 4,283,333 shares of the Resulting Issuer.

Since Fraser Buchan, a director and officer of Foxpoint, holds Telegraph Shares and will receive securities of the Resulting Issuer as a result of the Transaction, the Transaction was approved by all of the members of the Foxpoint board of directors, with the exclusion of Mr. Buchan, who has disclosed his conflicting interests in the Transaction and refrained from voting thereon.

MI 61-101 provides that an issuer involved in a related party transaction or business combination must obtain formal valuation unless an exemption from the valuation requirement can be relied upon, and must obtain minority approval, as described in MI 61-101 (the "Minority Approval"), for the transaction, unless an exemption from the Minority Approval requirements can be relied upon. Pursuant to Exchange Policy 5.9 and paragraph 5.4(1)(b) of MI 61-101 an exemption from the valuation requirement for related party transactions is available to Foxpoint, as Foxpoint's securities are solely listed on the Exchange.

Following completion of the Transaction, to the best of the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of Foxpoint and Telegraph, there will be no persons or companies who will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, or exercise control or direction over, common shares in the capital of the Resulting Issuer carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to the common shares in the capital of the Resulting Issuer after giving effect to the Telegraph Financing and the Transaction.

Sponsor

Foxpoint intends to rely upon an exemption in Section 3.4 of Exchange Policy 2.2 from the requirement to have an application for listing in connection with a Qualifying Transaction sponsored by a member of the Exchange. However, there can be no assurance that Foxpoint will be able to obtain an exemption.

Information Circular

Foxpoint will prepare an Exchange-compliant information circular in conjunction with the Transaction, which will include, among other things, further information on Telegraph and summaries of the applicable National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects reports.

Other Information and Updates

The Foxpoint Shares are currently listed for trading on the NEX; however, they have been halted from trading and will remain halted pending satisfaction of the Exchange's requirements. There can be no assurance that trading in the Foxpoint Shares will resume prior to the completion of the Transaction.
