HOUSTON, TEXAS--(Marketwired - Aug 10, 2016) - Greenfields Petroleum Corporation (the "Company" or "Greenfields") (TSX VENTURE:GNF)(TSX VENTURE:GNF.DB) announces the following:

Loan Restructuring

The Company has signed a Ninth Amending Agreement ("Amendment") to its loan agreement dated November 25, 2013 ("Loan Agreement") with its senior lender ("Lender"), which will be effective upon the approval by the Company's shareholders of an increase in its share capital and of its Lender as a new control person, and approval by the Company's debentureholders of conversion of the Company's convertible debentures into common shares of the Company, all as described in the Information Circular ("Circular") dated July 18, 2016, and available on SEDAR.

Pursuant to the Amendment, the maturity date under the Loan Agreement will be extended until March 31, 2018, and the loan principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest originally due December 31, 2015, will be converted to principal ("Restructure Amount"). The Company will issue to the Lender up to 2,220,000 common shares (hereinafter "Debt Shares") in the Company for each $1,000,000 of Restructure Amount, and 1,200,000 common shares for each $1,000,000 of any additional advance provided by the Lender within a specified period of time. For additional information on the number of Debt Shares to be issued, please refer to the Circular.

Additionally, for each Debt Share issued related to the Restructure Amount, the Company will issue to the Lender an equivalent number of Common Share purchase warrants upon the terms as described in the Circular.

The Eighth Amending Agreement signed on July 13, 2016, and described in the Circular, previously extended the maturity date under the Loan Agreement to August 31, 2016.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements. More particularly, this press release may include, but is not limited to, statements concerning the Loan Agreement, the Company's intention to evaluate refinancing options and the Company's strategy. In addition, the use of any of the words "initial, "scheduled", "can", "will", "prior to", "estimate", "anticipate", "believe", "should", "forecast", "future", "continue", "may", "expect", and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained herein are based on certain key expectations and assumptions made by the Company, including, but not limited to, the ability to secure a suitable shareholder of Bahar Energy Limited, expectations and assumptions concerning the success of optimization and efficiency improvement projects, the availability of capital, current legislation, receipt of required regulatory approval, the success of future drilling and development activities, the performance of existing wells, the performance of new wells, general economic conditions, availability of required equipment and services, weather conditions and prevailing commodity prices. Although the Company believes that the expectations and assumptions on which the forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements because the Company can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct.

Since forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties most of which are beyond the control of Greenfields. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should assumptions underlying the forward-looking information prove incorrect, actual results, performance or achievements could vary materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking information. These risks include, but are not limited to, risks associated with the oil and gas industry in general (e.g., operational risks in development, exploration and production; delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; the uncertainty of reserve estimates; the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production, costs and expenses, and health, safety, political and environmental risks), commodity price and exchange rate fluctuations, changes in legislation affecting the oil and gas industry and uncertainties resulting from potential delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures. Additional risk factors can be found under the heading "Risk Factors" in Greenfields' Annual Information Form and similar headings in Greenfields' Management's Discussion & Analysis which may be viewed on www.sedar.com.

The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of the date hereof and Greenfields undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless so required by applicable securities laws. The Company's forward-looking information is expressly qualified in its entirety by this cautionary statement.

Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
