About Brookwater:

Brookwater Ventures Inc. is a Canadian independent oil exploration company focused on growing its asset base primarily in Brazil. The Company's wholly-owned Brazilian-based subsidiary, Agua Grande, is party to a Farm-Out Agreement with Somoil and Sonangol Starfish, pursuant to which Agua Grande has acquired an undivided 30% interest in an oil & gas exploration concession located in the Recôncavo Basin in Brazil. Brookwater's shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol BW.

The Company believes that a tremendous opportunity exists in Brazil, where only approximately 6% of the sedimentary basins have been titled for exploration and development. The country remains underexploited and the Company believes that to capitalize on these opportunities requires investing in and leveraging a domestic team with basin knowledge, technical expertise and a network of relationships to optimize risk adjusted returns.
