CANADIAN PHOENIX RESOURCES CORP. ("Canadian Phoenix") (TSX VENTURE:CPH) is pleased to announce that Serrano Energy Ltd. ("Serrano"), a subsidiary of Canadian Phoenix, has received regulatory approval and completed the previously announced transaction with Pearl Exploration and Production Ltd. ("Pearl") whereby:

(b) The resulting working interests in the Blackrod project will be 20% for Serrano and 80% for Pearl (through its wholly-owned subsidiaries) and Serrano will transfer operatorship of the project to Pearl;

(c) Serrano will fund the next $6.25 million of gross expenditures on the Blackrod project, which expenditures will qualify as Canadian Exploration Expense under the Income Tax Act (Canada); and

(d) Pearl will transfer to Serrano all of its 4,037,344 common shares in the capital of Serrano for cancellation and the Pearl nominee will resign from the board of directors of Serrano.

Mr. Robert Chenery, Co-Chairman of the Board of Canadian Phoenix, was named to the board of directors of Serrano effective February 2, 2009, to fill the vacated seat of the Pearl nominee director. With this appointment, Canadian Phoenix holds four of the six positions on the Serrano board.
