CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - May 31, 2016) -

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

Pepcap Resources, Inc. (TSX VENTURE:WAV) (the "Corporation" or "Pepcap") is pleased to announce that it has adopted an advance notice policy, similar to policies recently adopted by a number of other Canadian public companies, requiring advance notice to the Corporation for nominations of directors by shareholders other than through a requisitioned meeting or by way of a shareholder proposal pursuant to applicable corporate laws (the "Advance Notice Policy").

The Advance Notice Policy is not intended to discourage director nominations, but rather to facilitate orderly and efficient meetings at which directors are to be elected and to permit shareholders to register an informed vote by allowing them to receive sufficient information with respect to all director nominees and reasonable time for appropriate deliberation. The Advance Notice Policy provides shareholders, directors and management of the Corporation with a clear framework for nominating directors in an orderly and fair manner.

The Advance Notice Policy establishes a deadline by which holders of record of common shares of the Corporation must submit director nominations to the Corporation prior to any annual general or special meeting of shareholders and sets forth the information that a shareholder must include in the notice to the Corporation for the notice to be in proper written form in order for any director nominee to be eligible for election at any annual or special meeting of shareholders.

In the case of an annual general meeting of shareholders, notice to the Corporation must not be made less than 30 nor more than 65 days prior to the date of the annual general meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that in the event that the annual general meeting of shareholders is to be held on a date that is less than 50 days after the date on which the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting was made, notice may be made not later than the close of business on the 10^th day following such public announcement.

In the case of a special meeting of shareholders (which is not also an annual general meeting), notice to the Corporation must be made not later than the close of business on the 15^th day on which the first public announcement of the date of the special meeting was made.

The Advance Notice Policy is effective May 31, 2016 and will be placed before shareholders for confirmation at the Corporation's annual and special meeting of shareholders to be held June 30, 2016. A copy of the Advance Notice Policy is available under the Corporation's profile at www.sedar.com.
