Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - July 3, 2019) - Cuda Oil and Gas Inc. (TSXV: CUDA) (OTC: JNEXF) ("Cuda" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has signed a definitive agreement to refinance its CAD $35 million credit facility (the "Facility") with its Canadian institutional lender (the "Lender"). The refinancing includes the extension of the maturity of the Facility by one year to June 27, 2020. Interest on the Facility will continue to compound monthly at a rate of 10.5% per annum, payable monthly. In connection with the refinancing of the Facility, the Company issued 1,500,000 common share purchase warrants (the "Warrants") to the Lender. Each Warrant entitles the Lender to purchase one common share (each a "Common Share") of Cuda at an exercise price of CAD $0.65/Common Share for a period of 24 months.

Interest on the Additional Facility will compound monthly at a rate of 10.75% per annum, payable monthly. The proceeds on the Additional Facility will provide a financial back-stop to fund and execute the natural gas miscible flood program (the "Program") at the Barron Flats (Deep) Federal Unit ("BFU") in Converse County, Wyoming. A cyclic gas-injection stimulation test, associated with the Program, at William Valentine #1 is expected to be onstream in July 2019.

In addition to the existing covenants, the Additional Facility is subject to customary work and facility fees and an initial draw of CAD $3.5 million. PDP values at year-end 2019 are required to be no less than CAD $50 million based on a Ryder Scott year-end reserve report.
