In addition, the Warrants are callable by the Company in the event that the closing price of Common Stock for at least fifteen trading days in any consecutive twenty trading day period is equal to or greater than $0.132, provided that at least six months has lapsed from the issuance date of the Warrants.

 

The Company will use the proceeds from the sales of Common Stock described above for working capital purposes, including the continued roll out of its previously disclosed sales and marketing strategy for its oil and gas operations.

 

In connection with the issuances of shares of Common Stock and the Warrants to purchase Common Stock described above, the Company relied on the exemption from registration for a private transaction not involving a public distribution provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

INTEGRATED ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES, LTD.

CLOSES ON NEARLY $2 MILLION FUNDING

Company Secures Additional Funding to Expand Oil and Gas Operations

 

LITTLE RIVER, S.C., February 13, 2015 – Integrated Environmental Technologies, Ltd. (OTCBB: IEVM) today announced that it closed on a $1,960,000 financing through the sale of its common stock. The company will use the proceeds from this financing to continue its expansion of its oil and gas operations in the Uinta Basin in Utah and the Permian Basin in New Mexico and it expects to add an additional production facility in the Permian Basin in Texas.

 

David R. LaVance, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The success of our Excelyte™ well maintenance treatments over the past several months has created a large opportunity for our business. This financing will provide us with the capital we need to grow our oil and gas operations and to build our team in order to meet our market opportunities.”

 

Hydrogen sulfide is a toxic and corrosive chemical that frequently appears in oil and gas production. Excelyte acts as a hydrogen sulfide scavenger and as a biocide that kills sulfate-reducing bacteria, which are known to produce hydrogen sulfide. The Company’s down-hole well maintenance operations consist of treating oil production wells that test positive for hydrogen sulfide with regularly scheduled applications of Excelyte.
