Gold Reserve Inc. (TSX.V: GRZ) (OTCQX: GDRZF) (“Gold Reserve” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the closing of its previously announced best efforts private placement of 4,285,715 Class A common shares of the Company (the “Common Shares”) at a price of US$3.50 per Common Share for gross proceeds of approximately US$15,000,000.00 (the “Offering”) with Cantor Fitzgerald Canada Corporation (“CFCC”) as sole agent and bookrunner. Following the Offering, there are a total of 103,954,426 Common Shares issued and outstanding.

The Company continues to evaluate and consider engaging in a potential transaction (the “Potential Transaction”) in relation to the sale of the common shares of PDV Holdings, Inc. (“PDVH”), the indirect parent company of CITGO Petroleum Corp (the “Sale Process”). The Potential Transaction may include the Company submitting a bid (a “Potential Bid”), either solely or jointly with certain undetermined parties, pursuant to the sales and bidding procedures managed by the Special Master of the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bidding Procedures”).

In connection with the Offering, the Company has paid CFCC a cash commission totalling approximately US$400,000. The net proceeds from the Offering will be used to fund certain expenses in connection with the Potential Transaction, including a potential cash deposit required for a Potential Bid submitted pursuant to the Bidding Procedures; however, there can be no assurance that a Potential Bid will be submitted or that the Potential Transaction will be consummated. In the event that (i) a Potential Bid is not submitted, or (ii) a Potential Bid is submitted but the Potential Transaction is not consummated, the net proceeds of the Offering may also be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Any Common Shares sold to investors outside of Canada were sold pursuant to OSC Rule 72-503 and subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, will be free from resale restrictions under applicable Canadian securities laws, provided that the trade is not a “control distribution” (as defined in National Instrument 45-102 – Resale of Securities).

The Offering remains subject to the final acceptance of the TSXV.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
