TSX: GPD

VANCOUVER, Sept. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ – Golden Predator Corp. (TSX:GPD) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has executed definitive
agreements with MF Investment Holding Company 1 (Cayman) Limited (“MF Investment”), part of the Red Kite group, for a senior secured loan
facility in the principle amount of USD $35,000,000 (the “Loan”). The
Loan proceeds will be utilized to develop the Brewery Creek project and
complete the Brewery Creek acquisition.

“We are pleased that Red Kite has appreciated the opportunities
presented by our Brewery Creek project. This financing consolidates our
interest in the project and ensures Brewery Creek moves forward as
planned,” said William M. Sheriff, Chairman and CEO. We look forward
to Brewery Creek advancing towards becoming the Yukon’s next gold
producer in 2014.”

USD $35,000,000 Loan Facility
The Loan will be provided through three advances, the first advance of
USD $10,000,000 having been provided on September 25, 2012 and two
subsequent advances of USD $10,000,000 and USD $15,000,000,
respectively, being made on completion of certain specified conditions
including delivery of an acceptable pre-feasibility study and receipt
of any required permit amendments for the Brewery Creek Project.

The first $10,000,000 of the Loan matures on July 1, 2015, the next
$15,000,000 on March 31, 2016 and the final $10,000,000 matures on
December 31, 2016. The Loan bears interest payable at LIBOR plus 8%
per annum, subject to a minimum interest rate of 10%. As a condition
to the second advance of the Loan, the Company has agreed to enter into
an offtake agreement under which it will sell to MF Investment the
first 500,000 ounces of gold produced from the Brewery Creek Project at
a discount of 1.5% to the spot price.

Of the initial advance, CAD $3,205,000 was used to complete the
acquisition by Golden Predator of the Brewery Creek Project from Alexco
Resource Corp. (“Alexco”) as more particularly described below, with
the balance of the net proceeds of the Loan will be used exclusively to
fund the working capital requirements of the Company related to or
arising in connection with the exploration and development of the
Brewery Creek Project.

Brewery Creek Purchase
The Company has closed the previously disclosed transactions
contemplated under the purchase agreement dated February 14, 2012 among
Alexco, the Company and Golden Predator Canada Corp. (the “Purchase
Agreement”). The Company now owns a 100% interest in the Brewery
Creek Project, subject to a 2% net smelter royalty (“NSR”) in favour of
Alexco on the first 600,000 ounces of gold produced from the Brewery
Creek Project, following which the NSR will increase to 2.75%. The
Company has the right to repurchase 0.625% of the increased NSR for CAD
$2,000,000 (which, if so acquired, would result in a 2.125% NSR on gold
to Alexco).

In exchange for a 100% interest in the Brewery Creek Project and in
addition to the NSR, the Company paid to Alexco CAD $3,205,000,
representing the cash consideration to be paid under the Purchase
Agreement (CAD $4,000,000) less the amount of the reclamation bond that
had been posted by Alexco with the Yukon government (CAD $795,000) and
issued to Alexco 7,500,000 common shares and 3,750,000 share purchase
warrants of the Company (the “Warrants”), each Warrant entitling Alexco
to purchase one additional common share of the Company at a price of
CAD $1.15 for a period of two years from closing.
