Pepcap Ventures Inc. (TSX VENTURE:WAV.P) (the "Corporation" or "Pepcap"), is pleased to announce that it remains committed to advancing the closure of its Qualifying Transaction with the intended target, Asia Mining Management, B.V.

Further to the previously announced Letter of Intent ("LOI") announced July 11, 2013, the Corporation continues to work on completion of its Qualifying Transaction. The Corporation is also pleased to announce the terms of the prior agreement have been modified to reflect the current investment climate, and values reflected and substantiated by the completion of a National Instrument 43-101 report (a "Technical Report"). For further clarification and subject to Exchange acceptance, the expected initial purchase price has been reduced from approximately $4,170,000 to $2,856,000, payable in common shares of Pepcap with certain common shares being subject to escrow within 36 months until completion of a work program and an aggregate value of not less than $3,300,000 being established within 36 months in a subsequent Technical Report, subject to a performance adjustment.

Management believes that they will be in position to secure a sponsor for a concurrent financing and announce their Definitive Agreement shortly.

The Corporation expects to provide additional information within the next 30 days.

Trading in Pepcap's common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange is halted and will remain halted until the transaction has been completed or the letter agreement is terminated.
