CALGARY, Alberta, May 02, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quattro Exploration and Production Ltd. (the
"Corporation") (TSXV:QXP) is pleased to announce that at year-end 2015 the Company’s total proven reserves
increased by 150% (TP) compared to year-end 2014 to 6.602 million boe, while Proven Plus Probable Reserves (2P) were 10.977 million
boe equating to a year over year increase of 166%, having a Reserve Life Index (RLI) of 15.89 years.
The Corporation also announces that it has made an application to the Alberta Securities Commission to approve a
temporary management cease trade order ("MCTO") under National Policy 12-203 Cease Trade Orders for Continuous Disclosure
Defaults ("NP 12-203"), which, if granted, will prohibit trading in securities of the Corporation by certain insiders of the
Corporation, whether direct or indirect. The Corporation is unable to file its audited financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2015 and the management’s discussion and analysis and related Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer certificates for this period (collectively, the "Required Filings") before the April 29, 2016 filing deadline (the "Filing
Deadline").
The Corporation's failure to file its Required Filings by the Filing Deadline is due to delays in the receipt of its 2015 reserves
evaluation from its independent reserves evaluator and the need for additional accounting information related to the acquisition of
Quattro (SRD) Innovations Inc. (the wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation) which occurred in December 2015. Although not
material to Quattro, these delays will cause a short delay in filing of the year end statements of Quattro.
The Corporation anticipates that it will be a position to remedy the default by filing the Required Filings on
or before May 21, 2016. The MCTO will be in effect until the Required Filings are filed.
The Corporation intends to satisfy the provisions of the alternative information guidelines set out in sections 4.3 and 4.4 of NP
12-203 so long as the Required Filings are outstanding.
