Sunridge Gold : Transfer Agent Closes Shareholder Register

Sunridge Gold Corp. (the 'Company' or 'Sunridge') advises that Computershare, the Company's transfer agent, will close the Company's shareholder register at the close of business May 18, 2016 and requests to transfer shares after this date will be rejected.

The Company's shares were de-listed from trading on the TSX Venture Exchange and the OTCQX on May 13, 2016, to allow all trades up to that May 13, 2016 date to settle by May 18, 2016. May 18, 2016 is the record date for shareholders to be entitled to a return of capital to be paid in two distributions (the 'Record Date Shareholders'). The first distribution will be paid to the Record Date Shareholders within 5 days of the Record Date. The second distribution to the Record Date Shareholders will follow approximately six months later.

The Company will voluntarily dissolve after the second distribution and all obligations of the Company have been settled.
