Armistice Resources Makes Third and Fourth Payments on Kerr-Addison Property Option

TORONTO, Feb. 27, 2013 - Armistice Resources Corp. (TSX: AZ), operator of the McGarry gold mine in Ontario's Kirkland Lake area, today reported that it has made the third and fourth payments on the Option Agreement to purchase 100% of the former Kerr-Addison mine property.

On signing the Option Agreement in December 2010 for the purchase, Armistice agreed to make five annual payments of $500,000 in cash to a group of private investors (the Group) who controlled ownership of the Kerr-Addison property and to issue 2,000,000 common shares to the Group. Armistice subsequently made the first two annual cash payments. The third payment of $500,000 was payable in January 2013.

Armistice reached an agreement with the Group to amend the Option Agreement, under which the third and fourth payments of $500,000 each were satisfied by the issuance of 10,000,000 shares from the Armistice treasury. The remaining fifth option payment of $500,000 in cash will continue to be payable on January 1, 2015 or the next business day thereafter.

As agreed in December 2010, Armistice continues to be required to pay a 2% royalty on gold production from the Kerr-Addison property, except for an area identified in an internal report prepared by AJ Perron Gold Corp. dated October 21, 1996 as containing proven and probable reserves which are subject instead to a 3% net smelter royalty.

"We are very pleased to have made this amendment that enables us to satisfy the third and fourth purchase payments with common shares," said Todd J. Morgan, chief executive officer and president. "This enables Armistice to use our cash to continue funding the development and operations of our McGarry Mine.

"As we reported in July 2012, the results of the surface diamond-drilling program carried out on the Mill Zone of the Kerr-Addison property were very encouraging. The findings from the 68 holes drilled confirmed our expectations that there is great potential for mineral resource delineation on the property. Our current focus is on bringing the McGarry Mine into commercial production in 2013. As we progress with that and start to generate meaningful cash flow, we intend to resume exploration drilling on the company's extensive land package, including the Kerr-Addison property," Mr. Morgan said.
