Solid retains RDF Capital Management Inc. to provide financial advisory services and grants stock options

Feb 6, 2008

EDMONTON, Feb. 6 /CNW/ - Solid Resources Ltd. ("Solid" or the "Company")
announced today that it has obtained approval from the TSX Venture Exchange to
enter into a Consulting Agreement with RDF Capital Management Inc. ("RDF
Capital") under which RDF Capital will provide corporate and financial
advisory services to the Company. The Consulting Agreement has a three (3)
month term and is subject to renewal upon the mutual agreement of the parties.
Pursuant to the terms of the Consulting Agreement, RDF Capital is to
receive 7% of the transaction value of any financing transaction which it
arranges (and 1.5% of the value of any financing transaction otherwise
arranged during its engagement) and 4.5% of the transaction value of any M&A
transaction which it arranges (and 1.5% of the value of any M&A transaction
otherwise arranged during its engagement). In addition to the foregoing, RDF
Capital is to receive common share purchase warrants: (a) equal to 7% of the
number of common shares issued in an equity financing transaction, (b) with an
aggregate subscription price equal to 7% of the proceeds in a debt financing
transaction, and (c) with an aggregate subscription price equal to 4.5% of the
proceeds in a M&A transaction. RDF Capital is only entitled to be compensated
with respect to non-related party transactions.
Entering into the Consulting Agreement constitutes a related party
transaction within the meaning of applicable securities laws, as RDF Capital
is a company controlled by R. Derek Frost who is currently a director of
Solid. An independent committee of the Board was struck to negotiate the terms
of the Consulting Agreement, which was approved by the Board subject to the
approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
The Board of Directors has determined to specifically commission RDF
Capital as agent, on a non-exclusive basis, to perform general corporate
financial advisory services as the Company may reasonably request and as
appropriate in the circumstances, including for the principal purpose of
identifying, contacting and negotiating with potential sources of financing
and/or other strategic third parties.
The Board has determined to retain RDF Capital for this purpose primarily
for the following reasons:

<<
a) the protracted period of the stock halt on the Exchange has created
significant obstacles for the Company in its endeavors to complete
any financing. The Company requires financing to fund the Company's
expenditures on its mineral properties. As disclosed by the Company
in its press release dated October 10, 2007, the Company has
received notice from Lara Explorations Inc. that it has purported to
terminate the option agreement the Company has in respect of its
mining property in Peru. The Board believes that the potential loss
of this property is due directly to the inability of the Company to
adequately fund its operations, primarily as a result of the lengthy
stock halt.

b) RDF Capital is a registered Limited Market Dealer in Ontario and
given that it is a company controlled by a director of the Company,
it is in a unique position to:

(i) understand the current status of the Company and the
regulatory matters it has addressed, including the effort the
Company has gone to address Exchange concerns; and

(ii) understand and communicate the current state of exploration of
the Company's properties and the necessary steps to move the
exploration process forward;

c) RDF Capital has agreed to perform the services contemplated in the
Agreement solely on the basis of a success fee as compensation;

d) the Board has unanimously determined, acting in good faith, that the
Company is in financial difficulty and the successful performance by
RDF Capital of the services contemplated in the Consulting Agreement
will improve the financial position of the Company; and

e) the Consulting Agreement is on terms that are reasonable in the
circumstances and are on commercially reasonable terms that are not
less advantageous to the Company than if a similar agreement were
entered into with a person or company dealing at arms length with
the Company.
>>

Given the above, the Board believes that RDF Capital is uniquely
positioned to provide the corporate finance and financial advisory services
that it requires. Further, the Board is of the opinion that the Company's
regulatory difficulties over the past year will make it difficult to retain an
arm's length service provider on reasonable terms, if at all.
