known as Pisces Capital Corp., a Capital Pool Company, is pleased to announce
that it has closed its previously announced Qualifying Transaction with
Petrolympia Inc. ("Petrolympia"), a Quebec-based junior oil and gas exploration
company. Concurrent with the completion of the Qualifying Transaction,
Petrolympic also closed its previously announced prospectus offering which
raised gross proceeds of $3,051,500 (the "Offering") via CTI Capital Inc. and
Research Capital Corp. (the "Agents"), with the assistance of Foundation Markets
("Foundation") which acted as financial advisor to Petrolympia and assisted in
coordinating the arms length financing. The TSX Venture Exchange has
conditionally approved listing of the common shares of Petrolympic, subject to
receipt from the Company of final submission documents, and it is expected that
trading of the common shares of Petrolympic under the new symbol "PCQ" will
commence on or about January 3, 2008.


The activities of Petrolympia, now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petrolympic,
constitute the entirety of the operations of Petrolympic. As part of the
Qualifying Transaction, the former shareholders of Petrolympia received
48,147,111 common shares of Petrolympic at a price of $0.18 per share, of which
44,444,445 will be subject to an escrow period of 3 years with 10% of the shares

anniversary of the closing of the Offering.


Petrolympic has agreed to renounce in favour of flow-through subscribers of the
Offering, Canadian Exploration Expenses incurred as a result of planned
exploration programs. Each flow-through share included in the "A" and "B" units
will allow its holder to claim income tax deductions of 100% at the federal

outside Quebec will, for provincial income tax purposes, have the right to the
same deductions as those allowed at the federal level.

$0.18 per share (such broker warrants issued in respect of the sale of common
shares) and 960,600 common shares at a price of $0.20 per common share (such
broker warrants issued in respect of the sale of flow-through shares).
