Announces Filing and Mailing of Proxy Circular to Replace the Company's Existing Directors


GREENWICH, CONNECTICUT--(Marketwired - Dec. 18, 2013) - FrontFour Capital Group LLC ("FrontFour") today announced that they have filed a proxy circular (the "FrontFour Circular") in connection with the requisition for a special meeting of shareholders of Renegade Petroleum Ltd. ("Renegade", or the "Company") scheduled for January 28, 2014 (the "Special Meeting") and are in the process of mailing to Renegade shareholders a GREEN form of proxy, a letter to shareholders and the FrontFour Circular calling for the removal of the existing Renegade directors and the election of new directors nominated by FrontFour.

FrontFour has issued an open letter to all shareholders of Renegade, which is attached to this press release. FrontFour has also created a website www.saveRenegade.com for shareholders to refer to and to be able to easily vote their shares in favour of FrontFour's director nominees.

The FrontFour nominees represent approximately 8.2% of the issued and outstanding shares of Renegade (the "Renegade Shares") and cite Renegade's underperformance and governance deficiencies as primary reasons for board change and have nominated Zachary George, Murray Sinclair, Stephen Slack, Tim Granger, Randy Best, David Pope and Ryan Dunfield, highly qualified and experienced individuals, to be elected to the Board at the Special Meeting on January 28, 2014.

Attention Renegade shareholders:

Regardless of how many Renegade Shares you own, it is imperative you vote your GREEN proxy to put an end to the current Board's track record of strategic missteps, weak financial controls, and poor governance.

Even if shareholders have already voted using Management's form of proxy, shareholders can still change their vote by voting the GREEN proxy, as only the latest dated proxy will be counted at the meeting. Vote the GREEN FrontFour proxy no later than 5:00 p.m. (Calgary time) on January 23rd, 2014.

December 18, 2013

Dear fellow Shareholder of Renegade Petroleum Ltd.:

The upcoming special meeting of Shareholders is an important opportunity for you to make a critical decision that will impact the future of your investment. I am writing to ask for your support as we attempt to hold the current directors of Renegade accountable for their numerous failings as stewards of shareholder capital. Over the last year, more than $275 million (see chart below) in equity value has been destroyed and the Board has fumbled almost every single strategic decision put before them. Shockingly, the current Chairman, Thomas Budd, claims to be on the "right path".

We are providing you with an opportunity to support a group of new experienced independent directors who collectively own more than 8% of Renegade Petroleum Ltd. and have a demonstrated track record of value creation. Why would shareholders support the current Board, which has a track record of strategic missteps, weak financial controls, and poor governance?

Renegade Petroleum Ltd. has significant value potential, however, we do not believe that this value will be realized without material changes in leadership and strategy. We believe Shareholders have no choice but to act now to replace the current Board and put Renegade back on a path to creating significant value for all Shareholders. To this end, we have nominated Zachary George, Murray Sinclair, Stephen Slack, Tim Granger, Randy Best, David Pope and Ryan Dunfield, highly qualified and experienced individuals, to be elected to the Board at the Meeting on January 28, 2014. As you can see from their biographies in the FrontFour Circular, our nominees have the experience, expertise and integrity to act in your best interests. Other than Zachary George and Ryan Dunfield, the nominees are completely independent of FrontFour.

Who is FrontFour?

FrontFour is an investment management company that has offices in Greenwich, Connecticut and Toronto, Ontario. Our principals have extensive experience with event driven and turnaround investing. Most of our investments are passive in nature but we have taken a more active role in companies across multiple industries to drive positive change and create value. Over the last five years, FrontFour has delivered compound annual returns greater than 23.5%, net of fees, to its investors.

Not only have we created significant value for FrontFour's direct investors, but in cases where we have engaged with company boards and played a role in developing strategy, we have a clear track record of creating value for all shareholders. The current Board has claimed that FrontFour is seeking control of Renegade without paying a premium. This is a weak argument. FrontFour is one of the largest shareholders of Renegade and is attempting to create value for all Shareholders - nothing more. FrontFour's nominees will ultimately be subject to majority voting principles, and annual elections, and will be held accountable for their performance. It is painfully obvious that Renegade is in dire need of fresh ideas and motivated fiduciaries. To this end, FrontFour has recruited a group of independent directors that will work hard to create value for ALL Renegade Shareholders.

Renegade's has tried to portray FrontFour as an opportunistic, short-term investor. This couldn't be further from the truth. Repairing the damage done by the current Board will be no easy task and will take considerable time. We are up for the task and our nominees are committed. WE HAVE A PLAN AND A TRACK RECORD OF VALUE

CREATION

Action Plan

If elected as directors of the Company, following the Special Meeting our nominees intend to take the following actions:

  • Hire a highly qualified CEO to lead Renegade's operating team.
  • Develop a new capital budget, which will prioritize free cash flow to accelerate the repayment of debt.
  • Evaluate the dividend in order to repair the balance sheet, which has been poorly managed by the current Board, while seeking to ensure that yield-oriented investors do not become forced sellers of the shares.
  • Focus on the reduction of SG&A and operating costs, which the current Board has allowed to become elevated versus Renegade's peers.
  • Seek to execute a reverse stock split, subject to shareholder approval, to reduce the relative cost of trading for all investors.
  • Seek to migrate Renegade's listing from the Venture Exchange to the Toronto Stock Exchange to improve visibility and governance standards.
  • Put the company on a dual strategic path whereby management works to "fix and grow" as well as "fix and sell" the business.
  • Implement best governance practices and re-align the interests of the Board with those of shareholders.

Shareholders Should Oppose the Desperate Entrenchment of the Current Board

The FrontFour nominees represent approximately 8.2% of the issued and outstanding Renegade Shares. FrontFour has spoken to several members of the Board to request that the Company avoid further unnecessary expenditures and an unnecessary proxy fight and work with FrontFour to achieve a compromise in replacing the current Board.

FrontFour has always been open to a negotiated resolution and does not require a majority of Board seats so long as the glaring conflicts and governance issues that the Thomas Budd led Board has endorsed are eliminated. Despite our efforts, Renegade has refused to budge and has continued on its path to engage in a contested proxy solicitation, unnecessarily wasting your money in a fruitless and inappropriate attempt to preserve control for the existing Board.

The current Board has also inappropriately, and in breach of their fiduciary duties, threatened shareholders with the triggering of certain incentive plans.

Even in this proxy fight, Renegade's Board is proposing slate-based rather than individual voting, which is recognized as poor governance and seeks to limit shareholders' freedom of choice.

Thomas Budd has publicly claimed that his calls to FrontFour have gone "unanswered". Not only has Mr. Budd not called our offices, but FrontFour is aware that he orchestrated a call between current directors and shareholders to discuss the proxy contest and Board representation. Despite the participants in this call suggesting that we be included and our interest in a productive dialogue, Mr. Budd intentionally excluded FrontFour from these discussions. Mr. Budd's claims are clearly disingenuous. This process is now being dominated by ego and control instead of value and logic. The current Board owns almost no stock but believes that it is in a position to dictate terms to the owners of the business. We have seen exactly what the current Board is capable of - Shareholders deserve better. The time for change is now.

In the following pages, we have presented the reasons why we believe you should support our proposed directors, and have outlined a business plan that will result in a stronger and profitable Company for the benefit of all Renegade stakeholders. The decision is yours to make.

We urge you to carefully consider the contents of this circular and vote only the GREEN proxy to vote FOR removing the existing directors and vote FOR our nominees. HELP US BRING POSITIVE CHANGE TO RENEGADE.

Even if you have already voted using Management's form of proxy, you can still change your vote by voting the GREEN proxy, as only the latest dated proxy will be counted at the meeting. Vote the GREEN FrontFour proxy no later than 5:00 p.m. (Calgary time) on January 23rd, 2014.
