Excelsior Energy Limited (TSX VENTURE:ELE) ("Excelsior" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce that its 75% owned subsidiary, ENS Energy Ltd. ("ENS")
(formerly 1385302 Alberta Ltd.) intends to enter into a private placement
financing of up to $5 million. After the restructuring of Excelsior's UK
subsidiary, announced on April 9, 2008, ENS wholly owns the UK subsidiary that
holds a 100% working interest in licence P.1500, blocks 16/1a and 16/6c, in the
United Kingdom Continental Shelf ("UKCS"). Excelsior currently owns 75% of ENS
following closing of an ENS private placement announced on June 9, 2008.


The ENS Board of Directors has approved a non-brokered private placement
financing of up to $5 million. The private placement contemplates the issuance
of up to 10 million units ("Units") at a subscription price of $0.50 per Unit.
Each Unit will consist of one common share of ENS ("Common Share") and one half
of a Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant a "Warrant"). Each
Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at a price of
$0.90 per Common Share. The Warrants will expire two years from the date of the
closing of the private placement. ENS intends to use the proceeds to fund
ongoing technical work on license P.1500 and business development activities in
the United Kingdom. ENS currently has 16 million Common Shares issued and
outstanding (19.6 million fully diluted).


David Winter, President and CEO of Excelsior and ENS commented, "This financing
will assist ENS to expand its asset base with a focus on properties with near
term production in the North Sea with a view to a public company strategy for
ENS".


ENS will manage and finance the work program in the 100% working interest
license P.1500, blocks 16/1a and 16/6c, UKCS. Block 16/1a and 16/6c were awarded
in April 2007, and are located within Quadrant 16 of the central North Sea, a
few kilometres northwest of the West Brae field. ENS is currently reprocessing
just over 300 square kilometers of 3-D seismic data to better image the
reservoir sands and to define a drilling location on a prospect which contains
an abandoned well drilled in 1992 which penetrated a 15 meter oil column.
