Traverse Energy Ltd. Royalty Property Disposition

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - June 11, 2015) - Traverse Energy Ltd. (the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:TVL) announces the sale of its royalty interest in the Brazeau area of Alberta for cash proceeds of $9 million. The royalty interest on 10 sections (6,400 acres) contains 22 producing horizontal Cardium oil wells and 1 Notikewin gas well at March 31, 2015. Traverse's interest during the first quarter of 2015 was 52 BOE/day (49% oil and NGL). At March 31, 2015 the Company had a working capital deficiency of approximately $5.2 million. Proceeds from the sale will eliminate the current working capital deficiency and contribute to ongoing exploration activities.

In the third quarter, Traverse is planning to drill one horizontal well into a new Mid Mannville zone at Coyote. This well will test the production capability of the new zone which, if successful, will lead to exploitation of the pool with further horizontal drilling. In addition, several vertical exploration wells are also planned for the Coyote-Michichi area during the third and fourth quarters of 2015.
