CWC Well Services Corp. Announces Quarterly Dividend

CWC Well Services Corp. (TSX VENTURE:CWC.V - News) ("CWC" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that its Board of Directors has declared a dividend of $0.0325 per common share. The dividend will be paid on July 13, 2012 to shareholders of record on June 29, 2012. The ex-dividend date is June 27, 2012. This dividend is an eligible dividend for Canadian income tax purposes.

On a go forward basis, the declaration of dividends will be determined on a quarter-by-quarter basis by the Board of Directors based on the sustainable cash flow and earnings of CWC. It is the Board's intent, at this time, to pay quarterly dividends of $0.01625 per common share to shareholders of record at the end of September and December 2012 resulting in an annual dividend of $0.065 per common share.

The declaration of dividends by CWC reflects CWC's positive view on the sustainability of its strong cash flow and earnings in the future and the Company's ability to provide a meaningful return on investment for its shareholders without impacting the Company's ability to pursue long-term growth opportunities.

Based on the closing price of $0.71 for CWC's common shares on March 19, 2012, a dividend of $0.065 per common share annually would result in a yield of 9.2%.
