ABOUT BLACKHAWK

During the previous fiscal year, the Corporation received conditional approval of the proposed change of business from an "oil and gas issuer" to an "investment issuer"; the Corporation's primary focus will be to seek returns through investments in the securities of other companies and other assets.

Since receiving conditional approval the Corporation has begun to both evaluate investment opportunities and has made a number of investments to date. The broad investment strategy of the Corporation relies on the expertise of management and the board, to source and evaluate investment opportunities that will provide above average returns for the shareholders. The goal of this strategy is to develop a portfolio of investments, which is expected to include equity, debt instruments and direct asset investments which will continue to provide positive cash flow returns. The Corporation is not intending to be industry specific, but is reviewing investment opportunities under the return and risk profile of each. In time the Corporation hopes to be able to distribute a portion of these earnings back to its shareholders through a sustainable dividend.

NON-GAAP OR NON IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES

This press release includes references to "net asset value per share ("NAV per share")," a financial measure that does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) or International IFRS.

Investors are cautioned that this non-GAAP measure should not be construed as an alternative to the measurement calculated in accordance with IFRS as, given its non-standardized meaning; it is unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers.
