NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE
UNITED STATES


Petrichor Energy Inc. (TSX VENTURE:PTP)(FRANKFURT:YQN) (the Company or PTP)
announces that it intends to complete a private placement for gross proceeds up
to $4,550,000 (the "Financing"), subject to acceptance by the TSX Venture
Exchange. These funds will be raised by the issuance of up to 13,000,000 Units
(the "Units") at a price of $0.35 per Unit (currently being a premium to the
Company's market price), each Unit consisting of one common share and one-half
share purchase warrant (the "Warrants"), each whole Warrant entitling the holder
thereof to purchase one additional common share, exercisable for a period of one
(1) year from the date of issuance at a price of $0.75 per share. 


Of the Units, 10,000,000 will be issued (as to 5,000,000 Units each) to two
strategic investors. Assuming the Financing is fully subscribed, a total of
44,001,329 common shares of the Company will be issued and outstanding, and
accordingly each of the two strategic investors will at that time become
Insiders of the Company. 


Proceeds raised from the Financing will be used to fund drilling and advancing
development of oil and gas wells on the Company's assets towards commercial
production, and for general working capital. 


The Company may pay finders' fees in connection with the Financing in accordance
with the rules and policies of the TSX Venture Exchange. 


One Insider of the Company has indirectly subscribed for a total of 500,000
Units from the Financing, and accordingly that related party may acquire up to
an additional 750,000 common shares in the capital stock of the Company
(including shares that may be issued on exercise of warrants issued in
connection with this Financing), which will increase his pro rata shareholdings
in the Company (the "Related Party Transaction"). All of the independent
directors of the Company, acting in good faith, have determined that the fair
market value of the securities being issued and the consideration paid is
reasonable and, with the value of the Related Party Transaction being less than
25% of the Company's market capitalization, is exempt from the formal valuation
and minority shareholder approval requirements of the Ontario Securities
Commission's Rule 61-501. 


The Financing is expected to close on or about May 21, 2014, and is subject to
certain conditions, including, but not limited to, receipt of acceptance from
the TSX Venture Exchange.
