NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 

Further to its news releases dated June 29, 2009, July 20, 2009 and October 19,
2009, Poplar Creek Resources Ltd. ("Poplar Creek") (TSX VENTURE:PCK) is pleased
to announce that it has entered into a new Joint Venture and Participation
Agreement (the "Participation Agreement") with ELM Energy Management Ltd.
("ELM") whereby, subject to certain conditions, including ELM raising $3,025,000
by no later than December 14, 2009, ELM will participate in a farm-in on the
lands of Twoco Petroleum Ltd. ("Twoco") and Poplar Creek will acquire an
additional interest in all other Twoco assets, pursuant to the farm-in agreement
entered into by Poplar Creek and Twoco and announced on October 19, 2009 (the
"Farm-in Agreement").


Pursuant to the terms of the Participation Agreement, ELM will have until
December 14, 2009 to raise $3,025,000 in order to fund the drilling of the first
series of wells. Upon the drilling of such wells, ELM will earn an interest in
the lands drilled pursuant to the Participation Agreement and Farm-in Agreement
and Poplar will acquire an additional 5.5% interest in all other Twoco assets.
Subsequent to the drilling of the first series of wells, ELM has two successive
options to further participate in a farm-in on Twoco's lands and thereby earn a
further interest in the lands drilled and Poplar will earn an additional 5.5%
interest in all other Twoco assets. Each such successive option requires ELM to
commit to an additional expenditure of $3,025,000 to fund the additional
drilling on Twoco's lands. If ELM fully exercises its options to participate in
a farm-in on the Twoco lands, Poplar Creek will own a 20% interest in all of
Twoco's assets, excluding lands drilled pursuant to the Participation Agreement.
The 20% interest is comprised of the 3.5% interest purchased on July 16, 2009
and the additional 16.5% interest to be acquired by way of the Farm-in
Agreement. If ELM raises the initial $3,025,000, it is expected the drilling
program will be commenced as soon as possible after December 15, 2009.
