Enhanced Oil Resources Inc. Announces Share Consolidation

HOUSTON, Jan. 20, 2015 /CNW/ - Enhanced Oil Resources Inc. (TSX-V: EOR; OTCQX: EORIF) (the "Company") announces that it is implementing a consolidation of its common shares on the basis of one post-consolidated share for every ten pre-consolidated shares.

The Company believes that reducing the number of issued and outstanding common shares will result in greater investor interest by allowing institutional investors that would, under their investing guidelines, otherwise be precluded from investing at the previous pre-consolidation common share price to invest in the Company, and reduce the volatility in the common share price on a percentage basis. The Company also believes that trading costs on a fixed-dollar amount at a higher price per common share may be lowered for investors relative to the lower price pre-consolidation. The Company expects that the greater interest and reduced transaction costs should ultimately increase and improve the liquidity of the Company's common shares.

Effective at the opening of the market on Wednesday, January 21, 2015 the common shares of the Company will commence trading on the TSX Venture Exchange on a consolidated basis.

The new CUSIP number will be 29333E205 and the new ISIN will be CA29333E2050. The Company's name and stock symbol will remain unchanged following the consolidation.

The Company currently has 160,186,319 issued and outstanding common shares and is anticipated to have 16,018,631 common shares outstanding following the consolidation.  The Company's outstanding stock options will also be adjusted on the same basis (one for ten) as the common shares, with proportionate adjustments being made to exercise prices.

Letters of transmittal with respect to the consolidation will be mailed to all registered shareholders of the Company as at January 20, 2015. All registered shareholders who submit a duly completed letter of transmittal, along with their respective share certificates representing the pre-consolidated shares, to the Company's transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc., will receive a share certificate representing the post-consolidated shares. Additional copies of the letter of transmittal can be obtained through Computershare. No action is required by non-registered shareholders who hold securities of the Company through an intermediary to effect consolidation of their shares.

No fractional shares will be issued. Where the exchange results in a fractional share, the number of post-consolidation common shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole common share.
