Rocky Mountain Liquor Inc. (TSX VENTURE:RUM) ("Rocky Mountain" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced overnight marketed offering (the "Offering") of convertible unsecured subordinated debentures (the "Debentures"). The Offering was led by National Bank Financial Inc. with a syndicate including Raymond James Ltd. (the "Agents").

Due to demand, the Agents exercised the over-allotment option in full. As a result, the total amount of Debentures issued increased from the maximum offering amount of $8,000,000 to $9,200,000.

The Debentures will bear interest at an annual rate of 7.75% payable semi-annually in arrears on April 30 and October 31 in each year, commencing October 31, 2011. The maturity date of the Debentures will be April 30, 2016 (the "Maturity Date").

The Debentures will be convertible upon certain specified events including at the holder's option at any time prior to the close of business on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the business day immediately preceding the date specified by the Company for redemption of the Debentures into common shares of the Company ("Common Shares") at a conversion price of $0.50 per Common Share, being a conversion rate of 2000.000 Common Shares for each $1,000 principal amount of Debentures.

The key business objective that the Company expects to achieve using the net proceeds of the Offering is to continue its present growth strategy by acquiring and developing new liquor stores.

The Debentures will be traded on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "RUM.DB".
