Pacific North West Capital Corp. Announces Voluntary TSX Delisting, TSX Venture Listing and 3:1 Share Consolidation

VANCOUVER, Jan. 9, 2014 /CNW/ - Pacific North West Capital Corp. (TSX: PFN) (OTCQB: PAWEF) (Frankfurt: P7J) (the "Company") announces it will voluntarily delist from the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") and has been accepted for listing by the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX Venture") through its streamlined listing procedures.

Concurrent with the TSX Venture listing, the Company further announces that pursuant to the special resolution passed by the shareholders at the Company's Annual General and Special Meeting on October 29, 2013, the Company will consolidate its 109,547,217 issued and outstanding common shares on the basis of three (3) old common shares of the Company for (1) new common share of the Company.

Effective at the opening on the TSX Venture, common shares of Pacific North West Capital Corp. will commence trading on a post-consolidated basis and there will be approximately 36,515,738 new common shares of the Company issued and outstanding. Fractional shares comprising of less than one-half of one share will be deemed to have been tendered by the registered owner to the Company for cancellation, and will be returned to the authorized but unissued shares of the Company. Fractional shares comprising of greater than or equal to one-half of one share will be converted into one whole common share. The Company does not intend to change its name or seek a new stock trading symbol in connection with the share consolidation or the TSX Venture listing. The new CUSIP and ISIN numbers will be 694916206 and CA6949162060 respectively.

The Board of Directors believes that a listing on the TSX Venture will provide for greater operational efficiency and lower costs for the Company while allowing shareholders continued liquidity on a recognized exchange. In addition, they have approved the share consolidation and believe that the consolidation of the common shares should enhance their marketability as an investment and should facilitate additional financings to fund future operations. Subject to TSX, TSX Venture and regulatory acceptance, the Company expects a seamless transition from the TSX to the TSX Venture Exchange at opening on Tuesday, January 14, 2014.
