Seaview Energy Inc. ("Seaview") (TSX VENTURE:CVU.A) (TSX VENTURE:CVU.B) together
with Charger Energy Corp. ("Charger"), Silverback Energy Ltd. ("Silverback") and
Sirius Energy Inc. ("Sirius"), are pleased to announce that the joint
information circular (the "Circular") in connection with the previously
announced plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") has been mailed to
securityholders. The Circular will also be posted on the Seaview website at
www.seaviewenergy.com and filed on the System for Electronic Document Analysis
and Retrieval ("SEDAR") at www.sedar.com where it will be made available under
the profile of Seaview.


The Arrangement will effect the strategic business combination of the four
companies and is subject to the approval of 66 2/3 percent of the votes cast by
the respective securityholders of each of Seaview, Charger, Silverback and
Sirius. The record date for the determination of securityholders entitled to
receive notice of and to vote at the respective securityholder meetings is
February 8, 2012.


Seaview has given notice that a special meeting of the holders of class A shares
and class B shares of Seaview will be held in the Acadia "B" Room at the Calgary

As a result of the anticipated timing of the closing of the Arrangement and the
current natural gas price environment, Charger management has revised the pro
forma 2012 capital program to approximately $60 million, subject to market
conditions. This capital program is expected to result in 2012 average
production of 4,000 to 4,300 boe/d (42 to 44 percent oil and liquids) and 2012
exit production of 4,500 to 4,800 boe/d (48 to 50 percent oil and liquids),
focused primarily on horizontal Viking oil opportunities. Please see the
Circular for more information on each of the four entities, the combined entity
and the Arrangement.


The previously announced $65 million operating facility for the combined entity
is now supported by a firm commitment from a Canadian chartered bank. The credit
facility will be used to fund the 2012 capital program, for general corporate
purposes and to repay the outstanding debt of Seaview, Silverback and Sirius
upon completion of the Arrangement.

expected results of the Arrangement, including the timing of completion thereof;
the resulting entity's petroleum and natural gas production; prospects; asset

performance of existing wells; the success obtained in drilling new wells; the
sufficiency of budgeted capital expenditures in carrying out planned activities;

Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a
number of factors and risks. These include, but are not limited to, the risks

development, exploration and production delays or changes in plans with respect
