| VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - April 23, 2009) - Riverside Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:RRI) ("Riverside" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that today it has closed the non-brokered private placement previously announced on April 1, 2009. A total of 3,771,500 units were issued in the financing at a price of $0.40 per unit for gross proceeds to the Company of $1,508,600 representing an oversubscription of $508,600 from the previously announced amount of $1,000,000. Each unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one common share of Riverside Resources for a period of 24 months from the closing date at a price of $0.65 in the 12 months immediately following the closing date and $0.85 thereafter. "We are pleased at the significant interest in the financing from both current and new shareholders despite the ongoing uncertainty in the global financial markets. We appreciate the continued support from our shareholders and believe that with the funds we will create more value in the near future. Our team will continue to focus on Riverside's prospect generator business model as it is clear that our shareholders support the steps that we have taken thus far in implementing it," stated John-Mark Staude, President and CEO of Riverside Resources Inc.

This financing is subject to regulatory approval and the securities issued under the Offering will be subject to a four-month hold period. In connection with the private placement, a finders fee was paid of $20,880 cash and 175,080 units at a deemed value of $0.40 per unit.
