Further to its news releases dated June 29, 2009, July 20, 2009, Octoboer 19,
2009 and November 9, 2009, Poplar Creek Resources Ltd. ("Poplar Creek") (TSX
VENTURE:PCK) is pleased to announced that it has entered into an amendment
agreement ("Amendment Agreement") to the joint venture and participation
agreement dated November 4, 2009 between Poplar Creek and Elm Energy Management
Ltd. ("ELM") as announced on November 9, 2009 (the "Original Agreement"). The
Amendment Agreement amends the terms upon which Poplar Creek will acquire the
oil and gas interests earned by ELM pursuant to the Original Agreement, and
ensures that under no circumstances will a control person of Poplar Creek be
created as a result of the proposed Liquidity Events, as defined in the Original
Agreement. Pursuant to the Amendment Agreement, the aggregate number of units of
Poplar ("Units") to be issued in satisfaction of the purchase price for the oil
and gas assets acquired by ELM shall not exceed 105,000,000 Units at a deemed
price of $0.29 per Unit. Each Unit shall be comprised of one fully paid and
non-assessable common share of Poplar (a "Poplar Share") and one-fifth of one
Poplar Share purchase warrant ("Warrant"). Each whole Warrant will entitle the
holder, for a period of 90 days from the date of issue, to acquire one fully
paid and non-assessable Poplar Share at a price equal to $0.29. In the event the
aggregate purchase price for the Liquidity Events exceeds $30,450,000, the
amount of such overage shall be paid by Poplar Creek in cash.


Where the issuance of Units in fulfillment of the purchase price for a Liquidity
Event (the "Purchase Price") would result in the creation of a new control
person (as defined in TSX Venture Policy 1.1) of Poplar Creek (a "Poplar Control
Person"), ELM may elect to either receive the maximum number of Units that may
be issued to it without creating a new Poplar Control Person, with the balance
of the Units (the "Unpaid Units") issuable in satisfaction of the Purchase Price
being issued upon completion of the following Liquidity Event, or the maximum
number of Units that may be issued to it without creating a new Poplar Control
Person, with the balance of the Purchase Price to be paid in cash.


In the event that Poplar Creek does not have the funds to pay the cash portion
of the Purchase Price, Poplar Creek will use its commercially reasonable efforts
to raise or obtain such funds on terms satisfactory to ELM, acting reasonably.
If notwithstanding its commercially reasonable efforts Poplar Creek is unable to
raise or obtain such funds on terms satisfactory to ELM, it will use its
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, as soon as practicable, TSX Venture
Exchange (the "Exchange") and shareholder approval for the payment of the entire
Purchase Price by the issuance of Units.


In the event that notwithstanding its commercially reasonable efforts Poplar
Creek is unable to obtain Exchange and shareholder approval, ELM may elect to
complete the Liquidity Event, in which case Poplar Creek shall remain indebted
to ELM for the cash portion of the Purchase Price to be paid upon closing of the
Liquidity Event until such payment is made, or not complete the Liquidity Event
and retain the oil and gas interests.


The completion of any proposed Liquidity Event is subject to receipt of all
necessary regulatory approvals, including but not limited to Exchange approval
of the issuance of Units to ELM in exchange for oil and gas interests earned by
ELM pursuant to the Original Agreement.
