TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Sept. 18, 2015) - Terreno Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE:TNO) ("Terreno") announces that it has been advised by the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") that since it is unable to meet Continued Listing Requirements of the Exchange to maintain its listing as a Tier 2 Issuer, it will be transferred to the NEX Board of the Exchange (the "NEX").

The Company also announces that it plans on undertaking a non-brokered private placement of up to 6,000,000 common shares in the capital of the Company (the "Common Shares") at $0.05 per Common Share for gross proceeds of up to $300,000 (the "Offering"). Certain directors and officers may participate in the Offering.

The Company decided to satisfy this outstanding indebtedness with Common Shares in order to preserve its cash for operations. The Debt Settlement is subject to the approval of the NEX.

Closing of the Debt Settlement and Offering is subject to receipt of all necessary corporate and regulatory approvals, including the approval of the NEX, and the Company will issue the Common Shares once the Debt Settlement has been approved by the NEX.
