pleased to announce the closing of its Capital Restructuring (defined below) and
the first closing of its Private Placement (defined below), as previously
announced in its press release dated December 7, 2009.


Capital Restructuring

Werklund Capital Corp., an entity owned by Mr. David Werklund, Chairman of
Phoenix, ("Werklund Co.") and 1222472 Alberta Ltd. ("Leo Co"), an entity owned
by Mr. Leo Provencher, President and CEO of Phoenix, have each converted their
combined existing subordinated debt, including accrued interest, of
approximately $11,566,540 (the "Debt") into common shares of the Company (the
"Capital Restructuring") The Debt was converted at $0.15 per common share, a
87.5% premium to the closing price of the Phoenix common shares on December 7,
2009. As part of the Capital Restructuring, Werklund Co. was granted a second
seat on the Board of Directors and re-priced the exercise price of its 5,000,000
previously issued warrants of the Company from $0.35 to $0.15 per share.


Immediately upon completion of the Capital Restructuring and the first closing
of the Private Placement, Werklund Co. will own approximately 62.8 million
common shares or approximately 38% of the issued and outstanding common shares
of Phoenix, and Leo Co. will own approximately 30.2 million common shares or
approximately 18.5% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Phoenix.


The Board of Directors established an independent committee (the "Special
Committee") to consider the Capital Restructuring and provide a recommendation
to the overall board. CI Capital Markets Inc. ("CI") (formerly Blackmont Capital
Inc.) acted as financial advisor to the Special Committee with respect to the
Capital Restructuring. CI has provided an opinion to the Special Committee
confirming that the Capital Restructuring is fair, from a financial point of
view, to the shareholders of Phoenix. Based upon the recommendation of the
Special Committee, the Board of Directors unanimously determined that the
proposed Capital Restructuring was in the best interests of the Company and its
shareholders. 


Private Placement

In connection with the Capital Restructuring, the Company is pleased to announce
the first closing of its previously announced private placement (the "Private
Placement") of subscription receipts of the Company (the "Subscription
Receipts"). A total of 25,250,000 Subscription Receipts were sold at a price of
$0.08 per Subscription Receipt for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,020,000. 


Each Subscription Receipt entitles the holder thereof to receive one common
share on the deemed exercise of the Subscription Receipt. The Subscription
Receipts as well as the common shares issuable upon exercise thereof will be
subject to a four month hold period under applicable Canadian securities laws.
Phoenix anticipates the final closing of the Private Placement will occur no
later than February 5, 2010, and will now consist of common shares of the
Company at a price of $0.08 per share.


The proceeds from the Private Placement will be used for general corporate
purposes.
