WINNIPEG, May 15 /CNW/ - Wildcat Exploration Ltd. (the "Company") has announced that, at its request, The Manitoba Securities Commission has issued an order that has the effect of extending the management cease trade order ("MCTO") originally issued on May 1, 2007. The MCTO was granted because the Company was not in a position to file its 2006 audited financial statements by the April 30, 2007 deadline. The MCTO precludes the issuance by the securities regulatory authorities of a full issuer cease trade order as long as the Company complies with the conditions of the MCTO.

As a consequence of the MCTO, the directors, officers and insiders of the Company, and certain other specified persons and companies, are not permitted to trade in the securities of the Company until the 2006 audited financial statements have been filed and the MCTO has been removed.

The Default Status Report issued in accordance with CSA Staff Notice 57-301 Failing to File Financial Statements on Time - Management Cease Trade Orders, Appendix B is reprinted in its entirety in this news release.
