Genoil (TSX VENTURE: GNO)(OTCBB: GNOLF) ("The Corporation") and its
President Thomas Bugg announces that Genoil has entered into an
agreement to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding common
shares of Two Hills Environmental Inc ("Two Hills"). The site is
accessible from Fort McMurray Alberta, Canada's premiere tar sands
production site. With nearby oil pipeline access, it is the perfect
location for Genoil to build a significant upgrader.
This acquisition conveys to Genoil surface title to 147 acres of
land, together with certain subsurface mineral rights contained
within 2,500 adjacent acres, and access to 388,550 cubic meters of
valuable water to be derived yearly from an adjacent river. This
water is critical to the new development of local brine production.
It is also vital for environmentally acceptable disposal and
processing of tar sands, and oil well production waste. The
multiple salt caverns intend to be utilized for a variety of
purposes including waste oil disposal, sand, and wastewater
disposal or as natural gas storage. Alberta Oil Sands production
relies heavily on safe waste disposal, processing and reclamation.
Genoil is committed to new solutions to minimize and prevent waste.
With a focus on recycling, we plan to convert this site to a state
of the art waste oil/water disposal and treatment facility
conveniently located amidst several waste disposal companies.
Genoil intends to recover hydrocarbons and other products from
this waste oil, and wastewater that otherwise would be injected
into the giant caverns. Alternatively, several of these massive
salt caverns could become gas storage facilities depending on the
future pricings. Any development is subject to obtaining the proper
permits from the necessary regulatory agencies, further detailed
economic analysis and obtaining appropriate financing.
"This is an exciting new chapter in Genoil's History" said
Genoil's President Thomas Bugg. "With the recent price of oil
climbing over $86.00 and with Alberta oil production on the rise,
it is clearly the right time to take advantage of this outstanding
opportunity.
In consideration of acquiring a 100% interest in Two Hills, the
Corporation is required to pay a cash deposit of $100,000, issue
2,500,000 common shares of Genoil and also issue a warrant to
purchase 250,000 common shares at market price upon closing to the
former shareholder of Two Hills. To satisfy a debtor and litigant
of $800,000 against Two Hills, Genoil will issue 2,500,000 common
shares to that party.
The purchase price for the acquired common shares of Two Hills
was arrived at through an arm's length negotiation process with the
shareholder of Two Hills from whom such shares were purchased. This
was further complemented by due diligence work conducted by Genoil
which included, but was not limited to; (i) due diligence searches;
(ii) review of the financial statements and records of Two Hills;
(iii) interviews with Two Hills management; and (iv) review of the
Two Hills minute book.
Two Hills was initially formed to enter into the oilfield waste
disposal industry by capitalizing upon its current undeveloped
asset base. This asset base is comprised of a site under which very
large salt caverns have been formed in the Lotsberg Formation
beneath the earth's surface. Such caverns are prized in the
oilfield disposal industry due to their efficacy and safety as a
destination for oilfield wastes.
The agreement is subject to a number of conditions precedents
that must be satisfied in order for the transaction to close and
the receipt of all regulatory approvals including without
limitation, the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
Genoil has also filed Shares for Debt Application with the TSX
Venture Exchange to satisfy $450,589.44 outstanding to certain
lenders (the "Creditors") of the Corporation by issuing 1,365,417
common shares of Genoil. Common shares are issued pursuant to debt
cancellation agreements between the Corporation and the Creditors,
whereby each of the Creditors agreed to forgive and cancel debts
currently owing to such Creditor by the Corporation.
The securities to be issued by the Corporation have not and will
not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "1933 Act"), or the securities laws of any state of
the United States, and may not be offered or sold in the United
States absent registration or an applicable exemption therefrom
under the 1933 Act and the securities laws of all applicable
states.
