United States Oil and Gas Corp Secures Extension on Note’s Maturity to 2012
AUSTIN, TX, January 5, 2011 -- United States Oil and Gas Corp, listed on the OTCQB (OTCQB: USOG), is pleased to announce that it has successfully negotiated the extension of its Promissory Note dated March 3, 2010 by and between USOG and Jeff Turnbull (the “Note”). The Note will now mature on December 31, 2012, rather than December 31, 2010. The Note was issued for the purpose of acquiring Turnbull Oil in May 2009 as a wholly owned operating subsidiary.
CEO Alex Tawse commented, “This extension reflects our good working relationship with Mr. Turnbull and provides added flexibility to eliminate our debt obligations over time. In addition, we expect to consolidate on a tax basis both of our subsidiaries in order to increase the bottom line. This is a great start to the year and a significant event for the Company.”
