NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED
STATES


Blackbird Energy Inc. ("Blackbird" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:BBI) is
pleased to announce that it has closed the second and final tranche (the "Second
Tranche") of its non-brokered private placement first commenced in February,
2012 (the "Non-Brokered Private Placement") for gross proceeds of an additional
$500,000. The first tranche of the Private Placement previously closed together,
with this second tranche of the non- brokered private placement, has now
provided aggregate gross proceeds of $2,579,960.


A total of 3,125,000 units (each, a "Unit"), at a price of $0.16 per Unit, were
issued pursuant to the Non-Brokered Private Placement. Each Unit consists of one
common share in the capital of the Company (a "Common Share") and one Common
Share purchase warrant (a "Warrant") exercisable at a price of $0.24 until April
5, 2014. Additionally, an aggregate of 250,000 finder's warrants (a "Finder's
Warrant") were issued and finder's fees paid to a finder in connection with the
Second Tranche. Each Finder's Warrant is exercisable at a price of $0.24 until
April 5, 2014.


Garth Braun, Blackbird CEO, stated: "We are very pleased to have completed this
second tranche. The funds we now have in place will see us through completion of
the third well, tie-in of production from the first two wells and drilling of
the fourth well. Further, given that production should be imminent, we are
hopeful that we will not be undertaking any additional financing activity for
the foreseeable future." 


All of the securities issued in the Second Tranche, including all Finder's
Warrants, are subject to a four month hold period expiring on August 6, 2012.


The net proceeds from the Second Tranche will be applied to the Company's
project with Donnybrook Energy Inc. for the lease construction and drilling of
the third and fourth Montney wells at Bigstone.
