Portal Resources Ltd. (TSX Venture Exchange: PDO) is pleased to announce the financing structure for its proposed $8.3 million acquisition of oil and natural gas production, reserves and associated assets in West Central Saskatchewan.

To complete the acquisition the Company will raise $9 million dollars with a combination of the following: 1) $2.5 million in senior bank debt for the purchase with a $1.5 million dollar development line of credit; 2) up to $3 million in equity; and 3) up to $6 million in convertible debentures.

The senior project loan facility will be through a Canadian bank and we are currently reviewing term sheets to select the lender.

The Company proposes to sell up to 37,500,000 units ("Units") of the Corporation at a price of $0.08 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $3,000,000, each Unit being comprised of one Common Share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant ("Warrant") of the Corporation. Each whole Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one additional Common Share at a price of $0.12 for a term of 18 months from the issue date of the Warrant.

The Company proposes to sell up to $6,000,000 of 12% Convertible Unsecured Subordinated Debentures ("Debentures") having a two-year term to maturity and which are convertible at the option of the holder (commencing from the first anniversary term) into Common Shares at a conversion price of not less than CDN $0.15 per Common Share.

"This acquisition greatly expands our land position in this core area of focus, our team sees the potential to increase the average daily production through the development of 13 proven and probable well locations as outlined in the McDaniels Engineering Report. Take the time and review the Corporate Presentation on Portal's website and you will get an understanding of the magnitude of the impact that it will have on the Company.
