Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - September 30, 2020) - Raise Production Inc. (TSXV: RPC) ("Raise" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has entered into an agreement with Q2 Artificial Lift Services ("Q2 ALS") to be the exclusive distributor for North America.

Raise has three unique systems that can be used independently or in combination in horizontal wellbores:

1. the High Angle Reciprocating Pump ("HARP^TM");
2. the Raise Efficient Artificial Lift ("REAL^TM") Horizontal Separator
3. the Horizontal Artificial Recovery Technology ("HART^TM").

The Company has entered into an exclusive distribution agreement with Q2 ALS, headquartered in Red Deer, Alberta, for the marketing, sale and installation of its HARP^TM and REAL^TM technologies for the North American market. The Company and Q2 ALS are also in discussions regarding the HART technology.

Q2 ALS is one of the top 3 fully integrated downhole rod pump companies in North America and specializes in the sales, service, engineering and manufacturing of downhole reciprocating pumps. It currently has 30+ repair and service locations strategically located across Western Canada and the United States.

Terms of the agreement include Q2 ALS purchasing a majority of the Company's existing HARP^TM inventory over a 6-month period valued at approximately $390,000. Raise will continue to maintain relationships with its existing customers while Q2 ALS receives the training and technical information needed to add the HARP^TM and REAL^TM technology to its product line. Raise's technical support for its customers and Q2 ALS will remain in place for the foreseeable future.

Eric Laing, President & CEO of Raise, commented:

"The agreement with Q2 ALS gives the Company access to markets that would be difficult, expensive and time consuming to build through organic growth. Q2 ALS has a wealth of in-house experience in all major markets with a skilled and dedicated team focused solely on rod pumping solutions. We are excited to be working with Q2 ALS and believe this venture will be a major benefit for both organizations".

Doug Quinn, President of Q2 ALS, commented:

"Raise's specialized recovery and pumping solutions optimize capital efficiency and has a proven ability to access stranded reserves versus re-frack or new drills along with demonstrating ability to materially reduce well decline curves. Both Q2 ALS and Raise are technology and innovation in motion and we look forward to a mutual beneficial working relationship."

In conjunction with the signing of the distribution agreement with Q2 ALS, the Company and Endurance Lift Solutions ("ELS") have mutually agreed to cancel their USA distribution agreement. ELS remains a major and valued shareholder of Raise and the Company plans to continue to work with ELS on other products it supports.
