Semcan Inc. (TSX VENTURE:STT) ("Semcan" or the "Company") today announced that
it has reached agreement with Business Development Bank of Canada ("BDC") to
provide a $1,700,000 term loan. The new loan will be available in two tranches,
with $800,000 to be drawn immediately following the satisfaction of certain
disbursement conditions, receipt of TSX Venture approval and completion of legal
documentation. A second tranche of $900,000 will be available after the release
of Semcan's 2011 audited financial statements, subject to BDC's satisfaction
with the Company's financial results for the year. The Company will use the
proceeds of the first tranche for working capital purposes, and the proceeds of
the second tranche to retire an existing obligation of $900,000 bearing interest
at 18% which matures on May 26, 2012.


The new loan will mature on February 8, 2014, with interest payable monthly at
12% per annum. Principal repayments of $20,000 per month are required, with the
balance due at maturity. In connection with the loan, the Company will issue
1,045,000 common share purchase warrants to the lender exercisable at $0.14
until February 8, 2014.


David Deacon, Semcan's CEO, said "This loan represents another significant step
forward for Semcan. The Company's working capital position, which has already
been strengthened considerably during 2011 as a result of our other financing
efforts and solid operating results, will be further improved after the closing
of the first tranche. The anticipated draw of the second tranche in early 2012
will allow the Company to refinance a short-term obligation bearing a high
interest rate. We anticipate that this financing will assist the Company in
building on the positive results for 2011 and grow the business further in
2012."
