AMIN American International Industries Inc (CE)

Mr. Daniel Dror, Chairman of the Board and CEO of American International Industries, Inc. and American International Texas Properties, Inc. (AITPI) today announced the completion of the sale of 174 Acres in Waller County Texas by AITPI to a real estate developer. The total consideration received for the property is $3,350,000. The terms of the sale were as follows: $1,350,000 was paid in cash at time of closing and a $2,000,000 first lien secured promissory note due in two years, with interest of 5% per annum, paid monthly. The property was purchased for development and the Company believes it will receive full payment of the $2,000,000 at the start of construction, which should be much earlier than two years.

The Company purchased the 174 Acre property in 2007 for $1,640,000 and with the personal guarantee of Mr. Daniel Dror, the Company borrowed the full amount of the consideration from the Trustmark Bank of Houston. The Company made a profit of $1,700,000 before closing costs. Due to a substantial tax loss carry forward, the Company believes the tax liability (if any) on this transaction will be very limited. At time of closing all the debt owed to the Trustmark Bank by the Company in the amount of $1,160,000 was paid in full. 

The Company's land holdings are now substantially debt free.

Houston Texas and surrounding suburbs are experiencing a major real estate boom and expansion. The Company believes this trend will continue.
