Ultra Lithium (TSX VENTURE:ULI) ("the Company" or "Ultra") is pleased to
announce that it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent ("LOI") with
Beijing Explo-Tech Engineering Co. Ltd. (BETEC) to form a strategic alliance for
the exploration of its highly prospective Serbian exploration licenses (the
"Property").


This strategic alliance will allow Ultra to move its Property forward
expeditiously, both from a financial and geological perspective. This
partnership will ensure the rapid advancement of our exploration program with
minimal dilution to the Company. 


Ultra's Chief Executive Officer, Marc Morin, commented, "We believe this $4.25
million investment highlights the unrecognized value of the Company's
lithium/boron assets and accomplishes several objectives for the benefit of
Ultra and its stakeholders. We look forward to working with BETEC."


Highlights of the LOI:



--  BETEC will invest CAD$750,000 through the purchase of units of
    securities of Ultra at $0.10 per unit. Each unit will consist of one (1)
    common share of Ultra and one-half of one (1/2) common share purchase
    warrant, with each whole warrant entitling BETEC to acquire one (1)
    additional common share of Ultra at $0.15 per share for period of two
    (2) years. 
--  BETEC undertakes and commits to fund up to CAD$3,500,000 of approved
    expenditures. Such expenditures will be incurred within a period of
    three (3) years. 
--  BETEC will earn a five (5%) per cent equity interest in Ultra Balkans
    d.o.o., Ultra's wholly-owned Serbian subsidiary, for each CAD$500,000 of
    approved expenditures incurred and up to a 35% equity interest once the
    entire CAD$3,500,000 of qualified expenditures has been incurred.
