CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Sept. 8, 2015) -

(NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA)

Northern Aspect Resources Ltd. (NEX:NTH.H) ("NARL" or the "Corporation"), a capital pool company, would like to provide an update on the proposed transaction (the "Transaction") with Blockchain Tech Ltd. ("BTL") and the advances made by BTL in the development of its business.

As announced on August 31, 2015, NARL and BTL have now entered into a definitive agreement in respect of the Transaction, and while they work toward completing the Transaction, BTL continues the development of its business.

BTL is a technology company incorporated under the laws of the Isle of Man whose first technology platform is a remittance business called Interbit with a focus on leveraging blockchain technology to create rapid and cost effective "cash-in cash-out" settlement solutions between the United Kingdom and target countries.

Interbit is developing a unified API interface which will seek to create new efficiencies not currently existing in the worldwide remittance market, estimated to be US$583 billion in 2014 (source: The World Bank.)

Interbit has completed the first part of its integration process and expects to perform its first real money remittance transaction at the end of September 2015. In October 2015, Interbit plans to test its remittance settlement solution with multiple business partners that serve the global remittance market.

The Transaction is intended to constitute the "Qualifying Transaction" of NARL, as such term is defined in Policy 2.4 of the TSX Venture Exchange.
