American Standard Energy Corp. (“ASEN”) was formed for the purpose of  leveraging a strategic relationship with a large private oil and gas company to  accumulate and develop select oil and gas properties within highly desirable  areas of the United States.
 
  
To date, the Company has utilized a “non‐operated plus” business model to  accumulate more than 39,400 acres in the Bakken formation in North Dakota, the  Wolfberry formation in West Texas and the Eagle Ford shale in South Texas.
 
  
ASEN’s strategy is to build a position of scale in each of its core operating areas.   With a unique ability to acquire, at will, acreage and production at attractive  relative values, the Company is well positioned to deliver superior returns  through the conversion of resources to cash flow.

PERMIAN BASIN OPPORTUNITY
  
ASEN continues to evaluate the most efficient transition of Permian acreage into  the Company.
 
  
Targeting ~50,000 net acres for transfer into ASEC in 2011.
 
  
Increasing industry activity in the play further de‐risks ASEN’s acreage and  acreage under evaluation.
 
  
Focus on self‐directed drilling program in the Permian, with a focus on  owning and controlling 100% WI assets in the Wolfberry, Wolfcamp and  other highly desirable formations. ASEC behave more like a true operator in  these plays.
 
  
ASEN’s drilling and operating partners include many of the best operators in  the basin.
 
  
Opportunities to joint venture and partnership may also be considered for  joint development.
