| Arapaho Capital Corp.: Malbex Completes $10.6 Million Financing |
| TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - June 30, 2009) - NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Arapaho Capital Corp. (TSX VENTURE:AHO) ("Arapaho") and Malbex Resources Inc. ("Malbex") are pleased to announce that Malbex has completed its previously announced private placement (the "Private Placement") of subscription receipts. The Private Placement consisted of the sale of 21,275,000 subscription receipts (the "Subscription Receipts") by Malbex through Thomas Weisel Partners Canada Inc. (as lead agent), Dundee Securities Corporation and GMP Securities L.P. (collectively the "Agents") at a price of $0.50 per Subscription Receipt for gross proceeds of $10,637,500. The Private Placement was completed in connection with the proposed reverse take-over transaction (the "Proposed Transaction") announced on May 26, 2009 involving Malbex and Arapaho to be completed by way of a three-cornered amalgamation (the "Amalgamation") whereby Malbex will amalgamate with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Arapaho and shareholders of Malbex will receive common shares of Arapaho on the basis of one common share of Arapaho for 1.5 common shares of Malbex (the "Exchange Ratio"). Immediately prior to completion of the Amalgamation, each one Subscription Receipt will be automatically exchanged, without the payment of any additional consideration, for one unit of Malbex (each a "Unit"). Each Unit will consist of one common share of Malbex (each a "Unit Share") and one-half of one warrant of Malbex (each whole warrant a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one common share of Malbex (each a "Warrant Share") at a price of $0.75 (the "Exercise Price") at any time on or before the date (the "Expiry Date") which is the earlier of (a) 18 months after the effective date of the Amalgamation, and (b) June 29, 2011. Malbex (or, upon completion of the Amalgamation, Arapaho) has the right to accelerate the Expiry Date on notice to the Warrant holders if the closing price of its common shares on a stock exchange in Canada is higher than $1.00 per common share (the "Acceleration Price") for a period of 20 consecutive trading days in which case the Warrants will expire on the 30th day after the date on which such notice is given. The Unit Shares and the Warrants will be exchanged for common shares and warrants of Arapaho on the basis of the Exchange Ratio in accordance with the terms of the Amalgamation. The Exercise Price, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and the Acceleration Price are subject to adjustment on the basis of the Exchange Ratio in accordance with the terms of the Amalgamation. The proceeds from the Private Placement will be used for exploration and general corporate purposes. Upon closing of the Private Placement, $2,000,000 plus the cash fee payable to the Agents and the expenses in connection with the Private Placement (the "Non-Escrowed Funds") was released to Malbex. The remaining portion of the aggregate gross proceeds from the Private Placement is being held in escrow and will be released to Malbex upon completion of the Amalgamation, provided that the Amalgamation is completed within six months from the date of closing of the Private Placement. In the event that the Amalgamation is not completed by such date, a portion (equal to the percentage that the Non-Escrowed Funds represent of the gross proceeds from the Private Placement) of the Subscription Receipts of each holder will be exchanged for Units, and each of the holders of Subscription Receipts will have the option, as to such holder's remaining Subscription Receipts, to redeem them for the purchase price for such Subscription Receipts or exchange them, without the payment of any additional consideration, for Units on the basis of one Unit for each such Subscription Receipt. The Subscription Receipts were sold on a private placement basis only to persons resident in the Provinces of British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario, the United States and in certain other jurisdictions outside of North America, in each case pursuant to available exemptions from any prospectus, registration or similar requirement of applicable securities legislation.
