16 - Exact Energy
Resources, Inc. Acquires Additional Rights to Technology
On behalf of Exact Energy Resources, Inc. (OTC: EXER)
(the “Company”) President Rod Burns, P. Eng., reports that
following the recent name change and reorganization, the Company has increased
its interest in the Low Profile Fluid Catalytic Cracking (LPFCC) Technology.
The Company has entered into an agreement to acquire all of the rights
to the Technology held by Wellborn Energy Corp.
“This represents a significant step forward for
the Company” remarked Rod Burns, President. “The need for
increased refining capacity is not just a national or even North American
concern, but rather, is a worldwide reality.”
“We are initially going to be concentrating our
efforts in North America, and then focusing on additional geographic regions
globally. No new refineries have been built in the United States in the
last 30 years and refining capacity has been consistently declining, but
recently, the situation has changed” said Burns. “The entire
industry recognizes that there is a shortage of refining capacity, especially
for production of high value-added products. Of note is the focus on adding
capacity that can convert heavier, cheaper crude oil into higher-value
added products. That is precisely where our technology adds significant
cost savings and advantage”.
Some advantages of the LPFCC Technology are upfront
capital cost savings of up to 40% over conventional crackers; increased
efficiency in cracking; enhanced ability to utilize heavy crude as a feed
stock; enhanced safety as the design allows lower pressures and temperatures
which makes the unit both safer and more cost effective; and, a higher
ratio of catalysis to feed stock (crude to be refined).
“Within the existing refining infrastructure,
significant capital improvements and upgrades need to be made to meet
the rising demand” he continued. “The lower capital cost,
lower operating costs, superior performance and enhanced ability to utilize
lower grade feed stocks are all compelling reasons for any refinery to
consider the LPFCC technology, whether for existing plant upgrades or
for new plant construction.”

BlueStar Health's Zeon Fuel Subsidiary Acquires Retail Truck Stop and
Convenience Store Location in Northeast Houston
BlueStar Health, Inc. (OTC: BLSH) announced that the
Company's Zeon Fuel subsidiary has, pursuant to a Letter of Intent that
was announced on December 11th, 2007 and a Definitive Agreement signed
earlier this week, acquired a retail truck stop and convenience store
operation located near the intersection of US 59 (Eastex) and Highway
8 near the George Bush International Airport in Houston, Texas.
The truck stop, which sells gasoline through 12 pumps
on 3 “islands” and diesel fuel through 4 pumps on 4 “islands”
under the Shell(tm) brand — property of Royal Dutch Shell Plc —
is located on a 3.5 acre corner lot at the intersection of two major freeways
servicing the International Airport area and features a 4,900 square foot
convenience store facility.
The newest addition to the Zeon Fuel portfolio exhibits
business metrics opportunity in-excess of targeted levels set by Zeon
management to qualify for acquisition consideration under the company's
“growth at a reasonable price” roll-up plan. Furthermore,
Zeon Fuel management anticipates that within the first year of operation,
the location will increase sales to close to 4 million gallons of fuel
or approximately $12 million in gross revenue at today's prices and $1
million in convenience store sales annually on a rolling 12-month basis.
Richard Greenwood, President and CEO of BlueStar commented,
“We are delighted to have closed the first-of-a-number of prospective
locations in our evaluation pipeline. While the business diligence and
transaction process took a bit longer than we originally anticipated for
this transaction, we believe that we will be able to incrementally speed
up the process with every successive acquisition candidate going forward.”
He continued, “We are in advanced discussions with a number of other
locations, including multi-location operations, and would expect to see
acquisition activity pick up markedly in the near future.”
“The current level of activity is behind where
we expect it to be in as short a time as two months from now but with
tactics and programs we have employed at other locations we will see very
positive improvements right away,” stated Naved Jaffrey, Chairman
of BlueStar. “We will immediately begin the process of upgrading
food services at the location in addition to improving amenities in the
truck driver rest area to deliver a better customer experience. We are
also outlining a comprehensive initiative aimed at increasing operational
efficiencies at the location that will incrementally benefit the bottom
line and our ability to scale sales in the future.”
