WESCAN ENERGY ANNOUNCES LOAN TRANSACTION AND OPERATIONS UPDATE

Wescan Energy Corp., further to its previous press release, has now entered into an agreement for a loan transaction providing for an additional infusion of capital in the amount of $500,000 to further assist with its upcoming drilling program at Provost, Alta. The loan is from a company controlled by a major shareholder of the company, who is an insider by virtue of owning greater than 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company. The commercial terms of the Loan has been set at an interest rate based on the current prime rate plus 5.80% per annum (0.75% per month) until the Loan is fully repaid. The Loan will be repaid from the expected revenue from the spud date of the new well at Provost, with fifty percent (50%) of the revenue being used for the purposes of repaying the Loan. The Loan is unsecured and matures one year from the date that the loan agreement was entered into. Finalization of the Loan is subject to approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Company is pleased to further announce that it has made significant progress with the preliminary groundwork including surveying and construction of the drilling location, land acquisition(s) and the securing of a purchase order for both the surface and intermediate casing for the well. Ongoing discussions with all other field related services in preparation of the new well have commenced and are being negotiated and finalized.

Furthermore, as previously stated in the Company's press release on March 31, 2022, WesCan stated that is was proceeding with a series of well repairs at Provost, Alberta. It was expected that the Company would repair up to 5 wells along with the available resources including rig availability, however, as a result of the overall costs being lower than originally budgeted for, 3 additional wells were repaired (8 gross wells) within the time period and successfully completed shortly after county road bans were lifted. As a result, the workovers have added approximately 67 barrels of oil per day increasing gross production to approximately 85-90 bbls/day. There are 2 additional wells that require flowline repairs that have been deferred for an extended period of time due to previously low commodity prices. The Company now expects to proceed with these repairs during the summer months providing more favorable ground conditions to conduct such operations. Further updates will be announced in due course.

Once again, WesCan will also be reviewing production optimization schemes and overall field operational efficiencies at the Company's wholly owned facilities as a result of the recent increase in overall production and in the event of the successful drilling and completion of the new well.

10 year high achieved today and the upside is still tremendous based on the amount of wells they can drill.

Mr. Greg Busby reports

Just some background on Greg Busby, the CEO of WesCan Energy. He has already built and sold companies in the Provost area of Alberta, along with experience in other companies:

Most recently, Mr. Busby was the president and CEO of CanRock Energy Corp., a junior public oil & gas company he co-founded and grew from zero production to approximately 500 boe/d. in the Provost area of east-central, Alberta. Prior thereto, Mr. Busby was president & CEO of Sable Energy Ltd. and Sable Energy (UK) Ltd., a private international North Sea focused E&P company. Mr. Busby was the former president, CEO, Interim CFO and director of Tuscany Energy Ltd. a Calgary-based public oil and gas company. He was instrumental in the restructuring and refinancing of the company that provided exponential growth in production and record earnings during his tenure. Mr. Busby is an active member of the Canadian Association of Petroleum Landmen (CAPL) and is a graduate (BA) of the University of Calgary.

Wescan Energy hit an 8 year high yesterday as technical and fundamental indicators show that this company has tremendous opportunity right now:

- Current production of 56boed with several workover projects that could easily triple this number

- 2021 oil/gas reserve report (51-101) showing just under 400,000 barrels. This was valued at $7.3 million USD when WTI pricing was $60 and Natural gas was $2.50. Today it's nearly double for both energy commodities.

- Shares for debt issued at 10 cents completed last month, still keeping the total float at 36.5 million shares.

- Recently announced $1 million placement that's half equity/debt, which will be used to drill a shallow horizontal well in an area, where neighbouring lease owners have had nearly 100% success rates on dozens of wells. Production ranging from 250-350bopd. Wescan has enough acreage to drill up to 4 of these wells

- $5 million worth of infrastructure that can handle a much larger capacity project. Wescan purchased this asset out of bankruptcy in 2015 for $1.3 million and the prior owner was aware that the lease had more upside beyond a couple dozen vertical wells. This is why such an investment was made for a larger facility to process the oil and gas.

- Heavy insider ownership and financial support. See insider buying.

- Website is terribly outdated, but this is an operation to drill and prove up the asset, then sell it.

Wescan Energy grants options to buy 2.8 million shares

2021-09-29 12:55 ET - News Release

Mr. Greg Busby reports

WESCAN ENERGY GRANTS STOCK OPTIONS

Wescan Energy Corp.'s board of directors has approved the issuance of stock options to purchase 2.8 million common shares of the corporation at a price of six cents per share, exercisable until Sept. 29, 2026. The options vest immediately and are being issued to directors, officers and consultants of the corporation in accordance with the corporation's stock option plan. The stock options (and common shares issuable thereunder) are subject to a four-month-plus-one-day hold period, expiring Jan. 30, 2022, in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange. These stock options grants remain subject to receipt of final approval from the TSX-V.

Just a quick history lesson here. In 2015, Leo Berezan (WCE's largest shareholder) sold the current producing property to WesCan for shares. Over the past 6 years, Leo has continued to increase his position in WCE, the largest increase just happened now. It's very likely that Leo knows the full potential of the property since he was the prior owner. Seeing him buying stock before the workovers and potentially a drill program is as good as it gets in terms of where things are headed. Company production costs range from $29-36 a barrel, as per the last 6 quarters. So to double the production and get $60+ for your oil, it's obvious to see that the company is making good money right now.

Wescan Energy closes $200,000 private placement

2021-03-15 12:10 MT - News Release


Mr. Greg Busby reports

WESCAN ENERGY ANNOUNCES CLOSING OF PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Wescan Energy Corp. has closed it previously announced non-brokered private placement of 4,000,000 common shares of the Corporation ("Common Shares") at a subscription price of $0.05 per Common Share for gross proceeds of $200,000 (the "Offering"). The Common Shares are subject to a four month hold from the date of issuance, expiring July 16, 2021. No commissions or finders fees were paid pursuant to the Offering.

Proceeds from the Offering will be used for the further development and workovers of certain wells located at the Company's core area in Provost, Alberta and general working capital purposes. The Company will also be reviewing well optimization projects including pipeline integrity schemes to provide additional production from certain wells that require workovers. The Offering is considered to be a "related party transaction" pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 as several insiders will be subscribing for shares pursuant to the Offering, but the Company is availing itself of the exemptions from obtaining a formal valuation and obtaining "majority of the minority" approval due to the exemptions available in Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of said instrument. In addition, one of the subscribers will hold over 20% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares following the closing of the Offering but will not be a "control person" as such term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange as there are several other large block shareholders of the Company and this shareholder is not part of management and has no special or superior rights over other shareholders.

We seek Safe Harbor.

Wescan will be picking up momentum pretty quick here as the company is starting to grow again. WTI hit $66 today and their production costs over the last several quarters range from $29-36 per barrel. So almost doubling at the moment.

WCE oil and gas reserves are nearly half a million barrels as well, mostly light oil. With workovers being done, a $200K placement at 5 cents ready to close and positive cash flow building, stock is looking good. Tight float of only 31.4 million shares and because it's coming off a multi year low, investors realize that most older shareholders in Wescan have higher costs. There's also some drilling locations which could be a game changer for the company.
