Bridge Resources Corp. Provides Corporate Update

Marketwired
Bridge Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE: BUK) ("Bridge") has filed its
financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2011 together
with its related Management's Discussion and Analysis on SEDAR.
These statements reference the financial requirements for Bridge to
achieve first production in Idaho, targeted for later this year.
Bridge encourages readers to review such statements and related
Management's Discussion and Analysis for complete details on
Bridge's financial position.
Bridge is forecasting a remaining $5,500,000 gross capital
expenditure cost (50% of which is net to Bridge) to complete the
necessary infrastructure to achieve first production and initial
cash flow with respect to its Idaho assets.
Bridge is fully current with interest payments on its senior
facility but is not in compliance with the associated debt
repayment schedule covenant. A restructuring of current debt
arrangements or additional debt and/or equity financing is
essential if Bridge is to meet current and future operating
requirements. Bridge does not currently possess the financial
resources to satisfy principal and interest payments due on its
existing debt facilities in 2011. The Company expects any
restructuring options will be subject to review of the submitted
Bridge Field Development Plan to produce the Idaho reserves, joint
venture participation, as well as other considerations. Bridge
anticipates furthering negotiations with the Senior Lending
Syndicate during this calendar quarter, however there can be no
assurances of continued financial support from the Senior Lending
Syndicate.
Management of Bridge believes the Idaho assets have significant
potential based on the independent reserves and resources valuation
by AJM Deloitte (formerly AJM Petroleum Consultants) effective
December 31, 2010. Bridge has also engaged Cappello Capital Corp.
of Santa Monica, California to assist the Company with raising
capital for several potential initiatives. The initiatives may
include development financing of the Willow and Hamilton fields and
restructuring of notes and debt.
Bridge, on behalf of its joint venture with its partner, has
acquired the majority of the permits and agreements for laying the
pipeline to Willow Field. The line pipe itself has been purchased
together with an option to acquire 13 acres of land for location of
a gas processing plant on the Northwest Pipeline. A Conditional Use
Permit request has been submitted to the Payette County
Commissioners and will be reviewed for approval in the next meeting
scheduled for August 18, 2011.
The Willow and Hamilton Fields, Idaho are the primary assets of
Bridge. Bridge confirms its commitment to make its best efforts to
achieve first production as efficiently as possible.

or strategic alternatives, expectations relating to future
