West Hawk Development Corp. (TSX VENTURE:WHD)(FRANKFURT:H5N)("West Hawk" or the
"Company") is pleased to announce that Fuselier Holdings, LLC ("Fuselier") has
completed the previously announced acquisition of West Hawk's secured note
("Note") from Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. ("Laurus") for a purchase price equal to
the outstanding principal balance of $1,299,705.  In connection with the
transaction, Laurus has assigned to Fuselier all of its right, title, and
interest (including security interests) pertaining to or arising from the Note
together with 50% of its 5% overriding royalty interest in West Hawk's Figure
Four Property.


Fuselier has agreed with West Hawk under the terms of a separate binding
commitment letter that West Hawk will repay the principal amount of the Note
plus an acceleration fee of approximately $385,000 to Fuselier by the issuance
of a convertible promissory note (the "Replacement Note") payable in shares of
West Hawk. Fuselier has also agreed to promptly discharge and release all
security interests registered by Laurus against West Hawk's properties,
including the Deed of Trust filed against the Company's Figure Four property,
security interests filed against its Canadian coal properties, and the pledge of
West Hawk's ownership interest in West Hawk Energy (USA), LLC, which holds the
Figure Four Project.   Further, Fuselier has agreed to disclaim and return to
West Hawk its right, title or interest in and to the 2.5% overriding royalty
interest in the Figure Four Property acquired from Laurus.


To complete the transaction, West Hawk has provided a bridge loan to Fuselier
for $1.3 million dollars, which was used by Fuselier to pay the purchase price
for the Note. The bridge loan was provided to meet the completion date required
by Laurus.  Fuselier has agreed to repay West Hawk the $1.3 million not later
than June 30, 2008, subject to a right of set-off against the Replacement Note.


The terms of the Replacement Note are subject to the approval of the TSX Venture
Exchange.


On behalf of the Board of Directors, Dr. Wm. Mark Hart, President and Chief
