Terraco Gold Corp. ("Terraco" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:TEN) announces that
today that its Board of Directors has approved the adoption of, and that it has
now adopted, a shareholder rights plan (the "Plan") subject to shareholder
approval. The Plan is now effective and will require shareholder ratification
within six months to remain in place. 


The Company's management considers its current market valuation to be in
contrast to the advancement of the Company and its business at this time. As a
result, the Board of Directors undertook a review to consider the need for a
shareholder rights plan. The purpose of the Plan is to provide shareholders and
the Company's Board of Directors with adequate time to consider and evaluate any
unsolicited bid made for the Company, to provide the Board of Directors with
adequate time to identify, develop and negotiate value-enhancing alternatives,
if considered appropriate, to any such unsolicited bid, to encourage the fair
treatment of shareholders in connection with any take-over bid for the Company
and to ensure that any proposed transaction is in the best interests of the
Company's shareholders. 


The Plan is not intended to prevent or discourage a fair bid for the Company. 

Details

The rights issued under the Plan will become exercisable only if a person,
together with its affiliates, associates and joint actors, acquires or announces
its intention to acquire beneficial ownership of shares which when aggregated
with its current holdings, total 20% or more of the Company's outstanding common
shares (determined in the manner set out in the Plan), other than by a Permitted
Bid (as described in the Plan). Permitted Bids must be made by way of a
take-over bid circular prepared in compliance with applicable securities laws
and, among other conditions, must remain open for 60 days. 


In the event that a take-over bid does not meet the Permitted Bid requirements
of the Plan, the rights will entitle shareholders, other than any shareholder or
shareholders making the take-over bid, to purchase additional common shares of
the Company at a substantial discount to the market price of the common shares
at that time.


A copy of the Shareholder Rights Plan was provided to the TSX Venture Exchange
(the "TSXV"). The TSXV has advised that is has no objection to the Plan subject
to evidence of shareholder approval of the Plan no later than October 16, 2013
and public disclosure of this news release. The Company intends to seek
shareholder approval of the Plan at its upcoming annual general meeting to be
held on May 29, 2013. The Company is not aware of any specific take-over bid for
the Company that has been made or is contemplated.


The full text of the Plan will be available under the Company's profile at
www.sedar.com and on the Company's website (www.terracogold.com).
