MOAG Copper Gold Resources announces imposition of cease trade order

VANCOUVER, Dec. 9, 2015 - MOAG Copper Gold Resources Inc. (CSE:MOG) (OTCQB: MGCPF) (the "Company") today announces that, in furtherance to its press release of October 6, 2015, the Company has commenced an internal review of its financial reporting following the filing of a lawsuit by the Company against a director of the Company with respect to certain loans made by the Company to such director.

The lawsuit resulted from investigations undertaken by the Company's board of directors (the "Board") in preparing a response to an inquiry from the Ontario Securities Commission with respect to the Company's public disclosure record. In the context of preparing such response, members of the Board became aware of misstatements in the Company's previously filed financial statements related to loans purportedly made by the Company to directors of the Company.

As a result of the identification of these misstatements, the Board has determined that certain of the Company's previously filed financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and, as such, cannot be relied upon. Specifically, the Board believes that the following publicly filed documents of the Company are materially misstated and will need to be refiled:

• interim financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the period ended September 30, 2011;
• interim financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the period ended December 31, 2011;
• interim financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the period ended March 31, 2012;
• annual financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012;
• interim financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the period ended September 30, 2012;
• interim financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the period ended December 31, 2012;
• interim financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the period ended March 31, 2013;
• annual financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013;
• interim financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the period ended September 30, 2013;
• interim financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the period ended December 31, 2013;
• interim financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the period ended March 31, 2014;
• annual financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014;
• interim financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the period ended September 30, 2014;
• interim financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the period ended December 31, 2014; and
• interim financial statements, MD&A and certifications for the period ended March 31, 2015.

Although it is endeavoring to do so, the Company does not expect that it will be able to meet the filing deadline of October 29, 2015 with respect to its financial year ended June 30, 2015.
