JCO Jericho Oil Corporation

Mr. Allen Wilson, President and CEO of Jericho Oil Corporation (formerly Dakar
Resource Corp.) ("Jericho" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:JCO) announces that
the Company has raised $6.547 million by way of a non-brokered private placement
of 21,826,366 units (the "Units") at $0.30 per unit (the "Offering"). The
Offering substantially exceeds the Company's original target of $5.0 million
which was announced December 18, 2013. Each unit is comprised of one common
share and one half warrant (a "Warrant") with each whole Warrant being
exercisable into one common share at $0.50 per share for two years from closing.
The Offering is being sold in the exempt market and primarily to accredited
investors in Canada and the U.S. Cash finder's fees of 7% ($95,200) have been
paid on $1,360,000 of the funds raised on the Offering. All securities issued
under the Offering are subject to a four month hold period expiring June 29,
2014.


Proceeds of the Offering will be used to close the acquisition (the
"Acquisition") of a 50% working interest in two oil lease packages located in
Kansas ("the Kansas Properties"). The Properties comprise 2,688 acres with
current production of 51 barrels of oil per day. Jericho is paying $2.475
million cash for its working interest in the Kansas Properties. Jericho
anticipates that its 50% share of initial development expenditures for infill
drilling and other exploration and development will be $2.5 million over the
next 12 months. An independent reserve report (effective December 31, 2013) has
been prepared on the Kansas Properties by B.L Whelan. P. Geo. in accordance with
National Instrument 51-101 (the "51-101 Report") and filed with the TSXV in
connection with the Acquisition. 


The Company changed its name to "Jericho Oil Corporation" from "Dakar Resource
Corp." effective February 27, 2014. Jericho's new trading symbol on the TSXV is
"JCO" effective February 27, 2014. Jericho's shares will resume trading on the
TSXV as soon as the TSXV has approved final editing changes to the 51-101
Report.


The Acquisition and Offering do not result in a change of control of Jericho.
The Acquisition is considered an arm's length transaction. 


The TSX Venture Exchange has in no way passed upon the merits of the proposed
transaction and has neither approved nor disapproved the contents of this press
release.


ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD 

Allen Wilson, President, C.E.O. and Director
