Trading Symbol: TSX-V OAK

TORONTO, Dec. 31 /CNW/ - Sheltered Oak Resources Corp. ("OAK" or the "Company") (TSXV: OAK) today announced the completion of a Private Placement (the "Private Placement") for aggregate proceeds of $189,000, consisting of 2,100,000 units of the Company (the "Units") at a price of $0.09 per Unit. Each Unit is comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company (a "Common Share") and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each whole warrant shall entitle its holder to acquire a Common Share at an exercise price of $0.12 per share for a period of 18 months from the date of closing.  The common shares issued are subject to a four-month hold period ending April 30, 2011. Richbert Agencies S.A. subscribed for the full Private Placement and, with this issuance, Richbert now holds 10.6% of the 78,487,235 issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

These Common Shares acquired by Richbert today represent approximately 2.7% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares and assuming exercise of the Warrants, the acquired securities would represent approximately 4% of the then issued and outstanding Common Shares.

The Common Shares were acquired by Richbert to maintain its previous holdings in the Company and for investment purposes.  Richbert may, from time to time, acquire additional Common Shares, dispose of some or all such Common Shares or may continue to hold such Common Shares. 

Before today's acquisition, Richbert held 6,250,000 Common Shares and 7,500,000 warrants.  Richbert therefore currently now owns 8,350,000 Common Shares representing 10.6% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares and 8,550,000 warrants.  Assuming the exercise of Richbert's warrants and JJ Elkin's options (as Richbert's joint actor), Richbert and its joint actor would own in the aggregate 17,707,689 Common Shares representing approximately 20% of the then issued and outstanding Common Shares.  For further information and to obtain a copy of the early warning report, filed under applicable Canadian securities laws in connection with the transactions hereunder, please see OAK's profile on the SEDAR website at www.sedar.com.

The Company will use the proceeds for further exploration on the Kerrs Property and for working capital purposes.
