About Us

The Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Avenue Energy, Inc. was formed to broaden the Company's strategic focus and pursue potential growth and investment strategies in the oil and gas sector.

Pursuant to these agreements, Avenue Energy currently has a 45% interest in the Tosun License and the Karakilise License, which following a recent discovery, is producing oil from the Karakilise-1 well.

In order to obtain the benefits of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Act for any such forward-looking statements, we wish to caution investors and prospective investors about significant factors which, among others, have in some cases affected our actual results and are in the future likely to affect our actual results and cause them to differ materially from those expressed in any such forward-looking statements. This Press Release contains forward-looking statements relating to future operational and business prospects.
