CALGARY, June 21, 2013 /CNW/ – Winstar Resources Ltd (“Winstar” or the “Company”) (TSX:WIX) is pleased to announce the results of its annual general and
special meeting of the holders (“Winstar Shareholders“) of common shares (“Common Shares“), held June 20, 2013 to consider and vote on, among other things, a
plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement“), under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta), involving Winstar, Winstar Shareholders, Kulczyk Oil
Ventures Inc. (“KOV“) and Kulczyk Investments S.A., pursuant to which KOV will acquire all
of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of Winstar.

Approval of Arrangement

By special resolution passed at the meeting of Winstar Shareholders, the
Arrangement was approved by 99.87% of the votes cast by Winstar
Shareholders, and 99.86% of the votes cast by the holders of Common
Shares (excluding Common Shares beneficially owned or over which
control or direction is exercised by such persons whose votes may not
be included in determining minority approval pursuant to Multilateral
instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions). Winstar also announces that, by ordinary resolution passed at the
meeting, Winstar Shareholders approved the KOV stock option plan by
99.35% of the votes cast by Winstar Shareholders.

Winstar understands that, also on June 20, 2013, the shareholders of KOV
passed resolutions approving the consolidation of KOV’s common shares
on a ten for one basis and changing the name of KOV to “Serinus Energy
Inc.” (“Serinus“). The approval of these two resolutions is a condition to the
completion of the Arrangement.

Update on Timing of Completion of Arrangement

The Final Order hearing in respect of the Arrangement was scheduled to
occur at the Calgary Courts Centre today, June 21, at 10:00 a.m. Due
to the widespread flooding and corresponding evacuations in downtown
Calgary, the Final Order hearing has been rescheduled to Monday, June
24 at 3:00 p.m. at the Calgary Courts Centre. With the shareholders of
KOV having approved the consolidation of its common shares and name
change, Winstar anticipates that the Arrangement will close on or about
June 24, 2013 following receipt of the Final Order. Thereafter, it is
expected that the common shares of Serinus will begin trading on the
Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX“) on or about the day that is three business days following completion
of the Arrangement, subject to Serinus fulfilling all of the remaining
listing conditions of the TSX.

As previously disclosed, the maximum cash consideration payable under
the Arrangement is $35,000,000. Winstar received aggregate cash
elections of approximately $45,400,000 such that Winstar Shareholders
that elected to receive cash shall receive approximately 77% of the
cash consideration they would otherwise be entitled to, with the
remainder to be satisfied in common shares of Serinus by virtue of the
proration mechanics under the Arrangement.

Vote Results on Other Matters

Other matters before the meeting are described more fully in the
management proxy circular dated May 16, 2013. Winstar Shareholders
voted to fix the number of directors to be elected at the meeting at
eight (8) and for the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as
Winstar’s auditors in the event that the Arrangement is not completed.
The following individuals were also elected as the directors of Winstar
for the ensuing year in the event that the Arrangement is not
completed: Douglas N. Baker, W. Russ Duncan, Evgenij Iorich, Bryan H.
Lawrence, Bruce R. Libin, Robert W. Mitchell, David A. Monachello, and
Christopher J. Whyte.
