Altima Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:ARH)(PINKSHEETS:ARSLF)(FRANKFURT:AKC) (the
"Company") announces that on April 10, 2013 it closed the final tranche of its
convertible debenture private placement financing (refer to Press Releases dated
June 8, 2012, August 29, 2012 and March 21, 2013). In accordance with the
provisions of subscription agreements received, at the closing the Company
issued convertible debentures in the total principal amount of $1,413,686 (the
"Debentures").


Proceeds will be used to fund drilling and advancing development of oil and gas
wells on the Company's assets in Alberta towards commercial production.


All Debentures issued under the private placement are governed by the terms and
conditions of an indenture with Computershare Trust Company of Canada
("Computershare") as trustee, a copy of which is available under the Company's
profile at www.sedar.com (filed August 29, 2012).


Holders of the Debentures have the right to convert the principal amount and any
accrued but unpaid interest thereon, into common shares of the Company (the
"Conversion Shares") at any time up to the maturity date of June 30, 2015 (the
"Maturity Date"), at a conversion price of Cdn$0.10 per Conversion Share in
respect of outstanding principal and, in respect of interest, at a conversion
price equal to the greater of Cdn$0.10 and the last closing price of the
Company's shares on the TSX Venture Exchange prior to the issuance of the
Conversion Shares.


The Debentures are transferable (subject to applicable securities laws), and
will bear interest at 12% per annum. Up to the Maturity Date, only interest on
the Debentures will be repaid, with the first quarterly interest payment being
due on June 30, 2013. The Debentures may be pre-paid at any time by the Company
after June 30, 2013 and prior to the Maturity Date. Any outstanding principal
amount and accrued interest will be due and payable on the Maturity Date. The
Debentures are secured by a first fixed charge on the Company's interests in all
of its properties and wells in Alberta, which is registered in favor of
Computershare as trustee for the subscribers under the private placement.
Further details of the terms of the Debentures are contained in the Company's
news release dated June 8, 2012.


A six percent (6%) cash finder's fee in the amount of $17,100 will be paid in
connection with this final tranche closing. The Debentures and any shares issued
on conversion of the Debentures will be subject to a hold period under
applicable Canadian securities laws expiring August 11, 2013, and will be
subject to such further restrictions on resale as may apply under applicable
foreign securities laws.


Two insiders of the Company and an associate of an insider have directly and/or
indirectly subscribed for an aggregate principal amount of $325,000 in
Debentures from the financing (the "Related Party Transaction"), and accordingly
those related parties may acquire up to an additional 3,250,000 common shares in
the capital stock of the Company (assuming conversion of principal only), which
may increase their pro rata shareholdings in the Company. All of the independent
directors of the Company have determined that, in respect of the Related Party
Transaction, the fair market value of the securities being issued and the
consideration paid is less than 25% of the Company's market capitalization and
therefore is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval
requirements of Multilateral Instrument 61-101. The Company did not file a
material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the
private placement as the details of the private placement and the participation
therein by related parties of the Company were not settled until shortly prior
to closing and the Company wished to close the private placement on an expedited
basis for sound business reasons.
