Palliser Oil & Gas Corporation announces Normal Course Issuer Bid

/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATE/

CALGARY, April 29, 2013 /CNW/ - Palliser Oil & Gas Corporation ("Palliser" or the "Company") (TSXV:PXL) is pleased to announce that the TSXV Venture Exchange ("TSXV") has accepted Palliser's Notice of Intention to make a Normal Course Issuer Bid (the "Bid") to purchase for cancellation, from time to time, as Palliser considers advisable, up to a maximum of 5,909,409 common shares (the "Common Shares"). The maximum number of Common Shares to be purchased pursuant to the Bid represents (10% of the Public Float) at the date hereof. Purchases of Common Shares will be made on the open market through the facilities of the TSXV. The price which Palliser will pay for any Common Shares purchased by it will be the prevailing market price of the Common Shares on the TSXV at the time of such purchase. The actual number of Common Shares that may be purchased for cancellation and the timing of any such purchases will be determined by Palliser.

The Bid will commence on May 2, 2013 and will terminate on May 1, 2014 or such earlier time as the Bid is completed or terminated at the option of Palliser. The Company has retained Casimir Capital Ltd. of Calgary, Alberta, as its broker to conduct the normal course issuer bid on its behalf.

Management of Palliser believes that, from time to time, the market price of the Common Shares may not fully reflect the underlying value of the Common Shares and that at such times the purchase of Common Shares would be in the best interests of Palliser. Such purchases will increase the proportionate interest of, and may be advantageous to, all remaining shareholders.
