Oyster Announces an Update to CAD$1.5m Private Placement Financing,

the Closing of Debt Settlement Agreement and also the intention to list on the AIM

Market of the London Stock Exchange (the AIM Listing)

Vancouver, British Columbia – June 20, 2017 – Oyster Oil and Gas Ltd. ("Oyster" or

the "Company") (OY: TSXV, 13L: FSE) is pleased to announce that further to the

Company's press releases dated May 31 and June 6, 2017, Oyster also announces updated

terms to its previously announced private placement financing. The Company now intends

to proceed with concurrent non-brokered private placements of units (the "Units") and

convertible debentures (the "Convertible Debentures") pursuant to which it expects to

raise aggregate gross proceeds of up to CAD$1,500,000.

Pursuant to the Unit financing (the "Unit Financing"), the Company intends to do a raise

of up to CAD$632,500 by issuing up to an aggregate of 1,265,000 Units at a price of

CAD$0.50 per Unit. Each Unit will consist of one Common Share and one transferable

common share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant shall entitle the holder

thereof to acquire one Common Share at a price of CAD$0.55 for a period of two years

from closing of the Unit Financing.

Pursuant to the Convertible Debenture financing (the "Debenture Financing", and

together with the Unit Financings, the "Financings"), the Company also intends to do a

raise of up to CAD$867,500 by issuing Convertible Debentures. The Convertible

Debentures shall accrue interest at the rate of 10% per annum and shall be convertible at

the option of the holder into Common Shares at a deemed price of the lesser of CAD$0.50

or a 20% discount to the AIM Listing offering price of Oyster's Common Shares, subject

to compliance with TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") minimum pricing policies, at any

time before one year from closing of the Debenture Financing, subject to acceleration upon

completion of the AIM listing, or otherwise shall become due and payable by the Company.

The subscribers to the Debenture Financing shall be issued one detachable Warrant for

every CAD$0.50 of principal Convertible Debentures subscribed for, with each Warrant

entitling the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at a price of CAD$0.55 for a

period of one year, subject to acceleration upon completion of the AIM listing. Accrued

interest on the Convertible Debenture may be converted into Common Shares at a

minimum conversion price of not less than the Market Price (as defined in TSX-V policies)

at the time such interest becomes due and payable.

The closing of the Financings are expected to occur by no later than July 13, 2017, and

remain subject to certain closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the receipt of

applicable regulatory approvals and the completion of required regulatory filings with the

TSXV. Commissions and/or finder's fees payable in cash or securities may be paid by the

Company in connection with the Financings subject to compliance with TSXV policies.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Financings for costs associated with

the AIM Listing and general corporate and working capital purposes.

The Company also announces that it has settled aggregate indebtedness of CAD$205,051

(the "Settlement") owed to an arms' length creditor by issuing 512,627 units (each, a

"Settlement Unit") at a deemed price of CAD$0.40 per Settlement Unit. Each Settlement

Unit consisted of one Common Share, and one Warrant exercisable at an exercise price of

CAD$0.55 until June 19, 2019. All securities issued pursuant to the Settlement are subject

to a four-month statutory hold period commencing June 19, 2017 in accordance with

applicable securities legislation.

The Company is also pleased to announce that it intends to list its Common Shares on the

AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange. The Company is in the process of engaging

a nominated advisor and one or more brokers as well as other advisors in connection with

the AIM Listing and will provide a further corporate update in due course.
