White Tiger Announces Voluntary Delisting from the Toronto Stock Exchange, an Application for a Listing on NEX, an update on the discussions with Vtb Capital

The Resignation of a Director

TORONTO, April 25, 2013 /CNW/ - White Tiger Gold Ltd. ("White Tiger" or the "Company") (TSX: WTG) today announces that the Company has applied to voluntarily delist its common shares from the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") and has concurrently applied to have its common shares listed on NEX, a separate board of the TSX Venture Exchange.  The Company is also providing shareholders with an update on its discussions with VTB Capital plc ("VTB Capital").


Voluntary Delisting and NEX Application

On April 23, 2013 the TSX announced that it was reviewing the eligibility for the Company's common shares to meet continued listing requirements of the TSX pursuant to Part VII of the TSX Company Manual (the "Delisting Review").  Following an internal review of its eligibility, the Company has determined that it does not currently meet such continued listing requirements.  Consequently, the Company has submitted an application to voluntarily delist its common shares from the TSX.

The Company has concurrently applied to transfer its stock exchange listing to NEX.  Management of the Company believes that a listing on NEX would provide the Company with: (i) continued liquidity for its shareholders; (ii) the flexibility to continue its discussions with VTB Capital; (iii) increased operational efficiencies; and (iv) lower operating costs.  The transfer of the listing is subject to the approval of NEX and the TSX Venture Exchange.

VTB Capital Update

The Company is continuing its discussions with VTB Capital to obtain a waiver or amend the terms of the VTB Facility.  On January 11, 2013, the Company announced that it was in breach of the gold sales covenant related to the VTB Facility as at December 31, 2012.  The resulting failure by the Company to meet the December 31, 2012 gold sales covenant constituted an event of default under the VTB Facility. As a consequence of the event of default, VTB could attempt to realize its security under the VTB Facility.

On March 20, 2013, the Company announced that Unique Goals International Ltd ("Unique") became the majority and controlling shareholder of the Company. The acquisition of control by Unique constituted a termination event under the ISDA Master Agreement dated March 7, 2012 (the "ISDA Master Agreement") between VTB Capital and the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Diascia Investments Limited ("Diascia"). As a consequence, VTB is in a position to terminate the ISDA Master Agreement.

To date, the Company has not received any notice from VTB regarding any intent to realize its security under the VTB Facility or exercise any of its rights and remedies under the ISDA Master Agreement.  On February 21, 2013 and April 3, 2013, Diascia received reservation of rights letters from VTB Capital regarding the VTB Facility and ISDA Master Agreement, respectively.  The letters notified Diascia that all the rights and remedies now or at any time in the future available to VTB Capital under the VTB Facility and ISDA Master Agreement, respectively, are hereby reserved.

Resignation of a Director

The Company also announces that Mr. Edward Sugar has resigned as a director of the Company, effective immediately. Mr. Sugar resigned for personal reasons.

Mr. Sergey Yanchukov, CEO of White Tiger, said, "On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to thank Mr. Sugar for his valuable service to the Company."
