American Sands Energy Corp. Announces License Agreement Enhancements
American Sands Energy Corp. (OTCBB:AMSE) ("AMSE" or the "Company"), an oil sands exploration and development company operating in Utah, announced today that it has negotiated new economic terms with the licensor of its proprietary water-free extraction technology. These new economic terms include conversion of contractual payments to equity and reductions in royalty fees for future projects outside of Utah (no royalties are paid on projects within Utah). The amended Agreement also confirms and simplifies AMSE's rights to pursue projects anywhere in the world where oil sand resources are abundant.
Daniel Carlson, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, said, "These amendments to the License Agreement with Universal Oil Recovery LLC provide us with the proper economics and aligned incentives for us to fully develop the technology at our Sunnyside project and in markets around the world. While we are focused in the short term on our Sunnyside project that will bring much needed jobs and economic development to the area around Price, Utah, we are also confident we can expand globally, developing other world class projects that will drive value creation for our shareholders and business partners."
