E Enterprise Group Inc

Enterprise Group, Inc. ("Enterprise," or the "Company") (TSX:E) is pleased to
announce that the Company has signed a letter of intent to acquire a
privately-owned oilfield site services rental company (the "Acquisition Target")
based in Fort St. John, British Columbia. The purchase price will be based on
the Acquisition Target's most recent financial statements which are in the
process of being audited. The acquisition will be funded by a combination of
Enterprise shares, cash, and vendor take-back financing. 


Over the past ten years, the Acquisition Target has developed a highly-regarded
full-service oilfield site infrastructure company that fulfills multiple
equipment rental needs for a variety of oil and gas customers. The company's
equipment fleet currently consists of approximately 350 owned pieces. This
acquisition expedites Enterprise's plans to be operating three of its
subsidiaries in Fort St. John by the fourth quarter of 2014. The owner of the
Acquisition Target has agreed to sign a five-year management agreement with the
Company. 


Enterprise expects to complete the transaction in the month of September 2014.
This completion will be subject to negotiation of a definitive share purchase
agreement, the Company's finalization of satisfactory due diligence, and
customary closing conditions. 


"This acquisition will further accelerate Enterprise's emergence as a key player
within the oilfield service industry," stated Leonard Jaroszuk, the Company's
President and Chief Executive Officer. "The Acquisition Target is in many ways
similar to Hart Oilfield Services, which we acquired in January of this year.
The two companies offer similar services, and we anticipate that synergies
between the two businesses will result in the creation of multiple cost-saving
efficiencies. Furthermore, the Acquisition Target has relationships with several
customers that Hart does not service."


"We strongly believe that the equipment rental market offers significant
potential," concluded Mr. Jaroszuk. "Much of this potential centers around the
Fort St. John region, a critical area in the development of Western Canada's LNG
industry. Our acquisition of Hart has already demonstrated its value, both in
the company's contribution to Enterprise's first quarter results and its
recently announced major contract with Canada's largest natural gas producer. We
are confident that this Acquisition Target offers similar potential, and will
create immediate and accretive benefits for our business."
