Eagle Hill Exploration Corporation ("Eagle Hill" or the "Company") is pleased to
announce that it has entered into an amending agreement (the "Amending
Agreement") with Noront Resources Ltd. ("Noront"), dated April 19, 2013, to
amend certain provisions of the option agreement entered into between the
parties on July 20, 2009 (the "Option Agreement") for the Windfall Lake Property
("Windfall Lake" or the "Property").


"The three year extension period will allow Eagle Hill to continue to develop
the Windfall Lake Property. We look forward to the next stage of our property's
development and getting one step closer to Quebec's next gold mine." stated P.
Bradley Kitchen, President and CEO of Eagle Hill. 


Salient points of the Amending Agreement are as follows:



--  A three (3) year extension to April 20, 2016 of the delivery date under
    the Option Agreement for Eagle Hill to satisfy certain Delivery
    Requirements (defined below) (the "Extension"); 
--  Noront has granted Eagle Hill a 90 day exclusivity period to negotiate
    the purchase of the Noront's 25% interest in the Property; 
--  Eagle Hill's deliverable requirements have been clarified and now state
    that Eagle Hill must deliver either a bankable feasibility study (the
    "BFS") with no defined hurdle rate or obtain a financing commitment to
    immediately enter into commercial production (the "Delivery
    Requirements"); 
--  If Eagle Hill does not complete the Delivery Requirements by April 20,
    2016, then Noront retains its existing repurchase right to purchase back
    the 75% of the Property from Eagle Hill for the lesser of (i) an amount
    equal to the expenses incurred by Eagle Hill, and (ii) $6 million (the
    "Buy-Back Provisions"); and 
--  If Noront exercises its rights under the Buy-Back Provisions, Noront
    will pay $6.0 million to Eagle Hill. If then Noront, or a third party,
    takes Windfall Lake into commercial production, Noront will pay to Eagle
    Hill the amount Eagle Hill has spent during the period from April 20,
    2013 to April 20, 2016 from the proceeds of production. Consideration to
    Noront for the Extension includes: 
    --  the transfer of the financial guarantee with the Quebec government
        from Noront to Eagle Hill in respect of certain reclamation
        obligations on the Property; 
    --  a cash payment to Noront totaling $615,000 (the "Extension
        Payment"); and 
    --  the removal of the provision in the Option Agreement requiring
        Noront to obtain consent from Eagle Hill for the transfer or sale of
        Noront's interest in the Property.



To incentivize Eagle Hill to make the Extension Payment and close the Amending
Agreement within 90 days, Noront will have the right to purchase back 75% of the
Property from the Company for $6 million if Eagle Hill does not make the
extension payment within the 90 day period. Alternatively, if Noront does not
elect to exercise this buy-back right, Noront's interest in the Property will
increase to 30% upon failure of Eagle Hill to make the Extension Payment. All
other terms and conditions of the Option Agreement remain. The Amending
Agreement will be available on SEDAR on April 23, 2013.


About the Windfall Lake Property

The Windfall Lake Property is comprised of 362 contiguous claims (over 12,000
hectares) in the Abitibi mineralized belt of northern Quebec. This area between
Val-d'Or and Chibougamau is known for its gold and copper production and
excellent infrastructure for exploration and mining. Historically, the Windfall
Lake Property has had extensive grassroots exploration work. Along with its
independently acquired claims at the Windfall Lake Property, Eagle Hill has
signed options with Noront (as described above) and also jointly with Murgor
Resources Inc. and Cliffs Natural Resources Inc. (formerly, Freewest Resources
Canada Inc.) to acquire the Windfall Lake Property. During July 2012, the
Company received its second mineral resource estimate, the results of which are
displayed in the table below:
