Canarc Arranges Cdn$200,000 Demand Loan from Directors and Employees, Grants Stock Options to Directors, Employees and Consultants

Vancouver, Canada – March 21, 2012 – Canarc Resource Corp. (TSX: CCM, OTC-BB: CRCUF, Frankfurt: CAN) announces that it has arranged a Cdn$200,000 demand loan from certain directors and employees of the Company.  The loan will bear simple interest of 12% per annum, calculated monthly and paid semi-annually. 

Canarc has also granted 1,400,000 stock options at $0.10 per share to certain consultants, directors and employees.  The options are for a 1 year period and will vest at the rate of 25% every quarter.

In the past 3 months, insiders have been accumulating Canarc shares in the market and through the exercise of stock options, as per their insider trade reports filed on SEDI.  Management is of the opinion that the current Canarc share price significantly undervalues the tangible value of its main asset, the New Polaris gold mine project in northwestern BC.
