DS Dividend Select 15 Corp

Secure Energy Services Inc. ("Secure" or the "Corporation") (TSX:SES) and its
wholly owned subsidiary Marquis Alliance Energy Group Inc. ("Marquis Alliance"),
are pleased to announce that they have entered into an agreement to acquire all
of the issued and outstanding shares of Target Rentals Ltd. ("Target") for an
aggregate purchase price, including assumed debt, of approximately $40.0
million, subject to certain customary closing adjustments (the "Acquisition").
The purchase price is being paid with $20.0 million in cash and the issuance of
approximately 1,350,000 common shares of Secure. Closing is expected to occur on
or about July 2, 2013, subject to certain closing conditions.


Summary of the Acquisition

Target is a privately owned oilfield service company offering a line of rental
equipment and support services for both the drilling and completions sectors.
Target is headquartered in Grande Prairie, Alberta and serves the Western
Canadian Sedimentary Basin ("WCSB"). Their core service offering is the supply
of a horizontal dual containment fluid storage tank system, used primarily for
oil based drilling fluid applications. Target's fluid storage tank system has
numerous cost saving, safety, and operational advantages over a traditional
400-barrel tank setup. Target's current fleet of 340 tanks is the largest of its
kind in the WCSB. Target holds a Canadian patent on its dual containment storage
tank system. Target's leadership team has 45 years of combined experience in the
oilfield rental equipment sector and is led by Paul Janzen and Steve Butt. The
purchase price reflects a multiple of 4.4 times Target's trailing 12 months
normalized EBITDA.


The management team of Target will continue to operate the day-to-day business
as a wholly owned subsidiary of Marquis Alliance. All Target shareholders will
enter into non-competition agreements. In addition, the common shares of Secure
issued as consideration will be held in escrow for five years with 20% to be
released on each anniversary of the closing date.


Strategic Rationale

The addition of Target's market leading dual containment fluid storage tank
system strengthens Secure's integrated service offering, supporting and
expanding the existing drilling fluids and rental business of the Corporation's
drilling services ("DS") division. The "Target Tank" system provides customers
with a safe, environmentally responsible, cost effective solution to storing oil
based drilling fluids and other sensitive fluids at the rig site.


George Wadsworth, Executive Vice President, Drilling Services Division, stated
that "the 'Target Tank' system complements Marquis Alliance's drilling fluids
products and services. This acquisition allows us to provide a more complete
service offering to customers at the back end of the drilling rig when it comes
to the supply and handling of oil based drilling fluids. We are delighted to
welcome to Secure an experienced and innovative team that has designed, built
and commercialized cutting edge oilfield technologies. This is yet another
example of Secure leveraging our expertise throughout our value chain."

Non GAAP Measures

This press release contains references to normalized EBITDA. This financial
measure is not a measure that has any standardized meaning prescribed by
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") in Canada and is therefore
referred to as non-GAAP measure. The non-GAAP measure used by the Corporation
may not be comparable to a similar measure used by other companies. Management
believes that in addition to net income, EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure
as it provides an indication of the financial results generated by the principal
business activities of the relevant company prior to consideration of how those
activities are financed or how the results are taxed. Normalized EBITDA as it is
used in relation to Target is defined as of earnings before interest expense,
income taxes, depreciation, amortization, management fees and adjustments that
are considered both non-recurring and market based in nature.
