Legend Oil and Gas Ltd. Closes the First of Its Canadian Property Sales

SEATTLE, WA--(Marketwired - Dec 5, 2013) - Legend Oil and Gas Ltd. (OTCQB: LOGL) ("Legend", the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has closed the first in a number of asset sales previously announced in its Canadian subsidiary, Legend Energy Canada Ltd. The Wildmere Unit interest, producing approximately 25 barrels of oil per day (BOPD), was sold at a price of CAD$1,955,000 before adjustments, which translates to a price of $78,200 per flowing barrel and over four times current cash flow. This divestment follows the strategy employed by the Company to sell assets at a higher price point than those it is able to acquire. The previously announced McCune Kansas acquisition was acquired at a value of approximately $50,000 per flowing barrel. 

The sale of Wildmere along with the sale of additional Canadian assets, which will occur over the next several months, will reduce Legend's gas weighted asset portfolio in Canada as well as its associated bank debt. These divestments will allow for the re-deployment of Legend's efforts and resources on its high return, oil weighted production portfolio in the United States.
