CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Jun 24, 2014) - Marksmen Energy
Inc. ("Marksmen" or the "Company") (TSX-VENTURE:MAH) is pleased to
announce that on June 20, 2014 it entered into a joint venture
agreement with Houghton Investments LLC (hereinafter "Houghton")
whereby Marksmen will acquire a 50% working interest in a well on a
lease of approximately 50 acres in Morrow County, Ohio, by paying
50% of the drilling and completion costs. In addition to the first
well, Marksmen has an option to participate in a second well under
the same terms and conditions.

drilling operations. The well has a target depth of 3,400 feet. It
is expected to take approximately two weeks to drill and
