Nighthawk Gold Corp. ("Nighthawk" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:NHK) is pleased
to announce that it has entered into an agreement in connection with a private
placement offering of flow through units ("FT Units") at a price of $0.40 per FT
Unit and units ("Units") at a price of $0.40 per Unit for aggregate gross
proceeds of up to $5,000,000 (the "Offering"). Each FT Unit shall consist of one
common share of Nighthawk, which will qualify as a "flow-through share" within
the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and one-half of one common share
purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant, a "Warrant"). Each
Unit shall be comprised of one common share and one-half of one Warrant. Each
Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to acquire one common share of
Nighthawk at a price of $0.50 for a period of 18 months following the closing of
the Offering. 


A syndicate of agents, led by Primary Capital Inc. (collectively, the "Agents"),
have agreed to act on a best efforts agency basis with respect to the Offering.
Nighthawk has agreed to pay the Agents a commission equal to 6.0% of the
aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering and issue the Agents broker warrants
(the "Broker Warrants") exercisable in the aggregate for that number of common
shares of Nighthawk equal in number to 6.0% of the number of FT Units and Units
sold under the Offering. The Broker Warrants will be exercisable at a price of
$0.45 per common share for a period of 18 months following the closing date of
the Offering. 


It is anticipated that insiders of the Company may participate in the Offering
for greater than 25% of the Offering. By virtue of their participation, the
Offering would constitute a "related party transaction" under applicable
securities laws. The Offering is scheduled to close on or about June 25, 2014.
The Company expects to release a material change report including details with
respect to the related party transaction less than 21 days prior to the closing
of the Offering, which the Company deemed reasonable in the circumstances so as
to be able to avail itself of potential financing opportunities and complete the
Offering in an expeditious manner. As the related party transaction will not
exceed specified limits, will constitute a distribution of securities for cash
and because the Company is not listed on certain specified exchanges, it is
expected that neither a formal valuation nor minority shareholder approval will
be required in connection with the Offering. 


The gross proceeds from the sale of the FT Units will be used to incur "Canadian
exploration expenses" (as such term is defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada)
(the "Tax Act")), which will also qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures"
(as defined in the Tax Act provided the amendments to the term as contained in
the February 11, 2014 federal budget become law), on the continued exploration
of the Company's Indin Lake Gold property located in the Northwest Territories.
The net proceeds from the sale of the Units will be used for general working
capital purposes. The Offering is subject to certain conditions including, but
not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the acceptance
by the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV").


Any securities to be issued under the Offering will be subject to a hold period
of four months and a day from the closing date of the Offering in accordance
with the rules and policies of the TSXV and applicable Canadian securities laws
and such other further restrictions as may apply under foreign securities laws.
