Cub Energy Inc. ("Cub", or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:KUB) announces the
Rusko-Komarovske-22 ("RK-22") development well, on the Rusko-Komarovske ("RK")
licence, in western Ukraine has tested gas at a maximum rate flow rate of 2.5
million cubic feet per day ("MMcf/d"). Cub is the owner and operator of the
RK-22 well and has a 100% working interest in the RK licence.


RK-22 Well

The RK-22 well location was identified by 3-D seismic acquired by Cub in early
2013 and is the first well drilled by Cub on the RK licence. The RK-22 well is
approximately 640 metres northwest of the Company's RK-2 legacy well and
encountered gas in the Lukovskaya ("L") sands and Dorobratovskaya sands. The L
sands were perforated over four intervals between 650 metres and 749 metres then
subsequently flow tested through various choke sizes. 


Mikhail Afendikov, Chief Executive Officer of Cub Energy, commented, "We are
excited about the expected increase in reserves created by success on this
100-percent working interest well and our entire 2013-drilling program. We now
look to continue increasing shareholder value in 2014 and will continue to work
at further increasing our reserves and production profile from our assets in the
black-sea region."


The well achieved a maximum stabilised natural gas flow rate of 2.5 MMcf/d
through a 10-millimetre choke with a well head tubing pressure of 814
pound-force per square inch ("psi") and a well head casing pressure of 867 psi. 


The Company expects to have the RK-22 on production before year-end 2013 and
anticipates a production exit rate between 1,900 and 2,100 barrels of oil
equivalent per day ("boe/d"), which is in line with management's previous
forecast. 


Additionally, with the completion of its facilities upgrade on its Eastern
Ukraine assets, Cub expects to tie in an additional 275 to 350 boe/d within Q1
2014, which is currently behind pipe due to current capacity constraints. The
Company has begun preparations to spud its second well on the RK licence in the
first quarter of 2014 and will continue with further development of the RK
licence in 2014. 


Ukraine-Russia Gas Pricing Agreement

Cub is aware of the reported agreement on gas prices between Ukraine and Russia
and is following developments closely. However, the details of the agreement and
how they may affect industrial natural gas prices have not been released. 


To date the Company's realised natural gas sales price and netbacks have been
unaffected. A further statement and update will be issued as soon as the Company
has the factual details of the agreement.

Oil and Gas Equivalents 

A barrel of oil equivalent ("boe") or units of natural gas equivalents ("Mcfe")
is calculated using the conversion factor of 6 Mcf (thousand cubic feet) of
natural gas being equivalent to one barrel of oil. A boe conversion ratio of 6
Mcf: 1 bbl (barrel) or an Mcfe conversion of 1bbl: 6 Mcf is, based on an energy
equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does
not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead and is not based on either
energy content or current prices. While the boe ratio is useful for comparative
measures, it does not accurately reflect individual product values and might be
misleading, particularly if used in isolation. As well, given that the value
ratio, based on the current price of crude oil to natural gas, is significantly
different from the 6:1 energy equivalency ratio, using a 6:1 conversion ratio
may be misleading as an indication of value.
