July 6, 2015

(July 6, 2015, Vancouver, B.C., Canada) - Rokmaster Resources Corp. ("Rokmaster" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has entered into an agreement with Kaizen Discovery Inc. ("Kaizen") dated July 3, 2015 (the "Letter Agreement") to facilitate Kaizen's acquisition of the Pinaya Gold/Copper Project in Peru from AM Gold Inc. ("AM Gold"). 

Under the terms of the Letter Agreement, Rokmaster is to:

  1. mutually terminate the option agreement between Rokmaster, AM Gold and AM Gold's Peruvian subsidiary, Canper Exploraciones S.A.C. ("Canper") dated July 16, 2012, as amended, along with certain ancillary agreements between Canper and Rokmaster's Peruvian subsidiary (collectively, the "RKR-AMG Agreements");
  2. transfer its interest in the Pinaya Project back to AM Gold and Canper;
  3. request the termination of the arbitration proceedings currently underway between Rokmaster and AM Gold and Canper (the "Arbitration Proceedings");
  4. enter into a settlement agreement and mutual release with AM Gold and Canper in respect of matters related to the RKR-AMG Agreements; and
  5. transfer to Kaizen, Rokmaster's drill and equipment related to the drill, all of which are currently situated on the Pinaya Project,

for and in consideration to Rokmaster, Kaizen's payment of the sum of Cdn$300,000 and issuance to Rokmaster of 2,000,000 common shares of Kaizen (the "Kaizen Shares"). The Kaizen Shares will be held in escrow and 25% of the Kaizen Shares will be released from escrow on the first trading day following the expiry of the four month hold period associated with the Kaizen Shares, with a further 25% being released every three months thereafter. Kaizen shall have the right, during the 14 days prior to each release date, to arrange the sale of the Kaizen Shares to be released to a buyer nominated by Kaizen, or through a broker nominated by Kaizen, provided that the sale price per share is at least equal to the weighted average price of Kaizen's common shares during the 30 trading day period prior to the release date.

This transaction is subject to Kaizen's completion of its due diligence in respect of the Pinaya Project, and AM Gold's receipt of TSX Venture Exchange and shareholder approval to sell the Pinaya Project to Kaizen. AM Gold advises that such shareholder approval will be sought at a shareholder meeting to be called in late August, 2015.

Rokmaster, AM Gold and Canper have suspended the Arbitration Proceedings pending closing of this transaction.

"We are excited to have entered into this transaction with Kaizen and extremely pleased with the interest demonstrated by them towards the Pinaya Project. With Kaizen's leadership team and unique access to capital through its collaboration with ITOCHU Corporation of Japan, a company listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange with a market capitalization of approximately $20 billion and specializing in metals and minerals, we believe Kaizen will be able to move the Pinaya Project forward. The transaction with Kaizen also allows Rokmaster to maintain an interest in the Pinaya Project while allowing us to focus on our recent acquisition of an option to purchase a fully permitted and producing copper, gold, silver flotation plant as well as pursue our other endeavors." stated John Mirko, Rokmaster's President and CEO.
