December 2 - eMax Worldwide, Inc. Releases Letter to Its Shareholders

 

EMAX Holdings Corp. (OTC: EMXC), recently renamed eMax Worldwide, Inc., ("eMax"), updates its shareholders on recent events.

 

"We are very excited about the future of eMax this next year due to all the growth activities we have been very involved with completing this year," stated Roxanna Weber, President of eMax Worldwide, Inc.

 

Recently, eMax Worldwide, Inc. has not been making many public statements of their activities due to the fact that they are currently working with NASDAQ and the SEC to put their company in full compliance, fully transparent and hopefully in the very near future moving off the NASDAQ Pink Sheets and trading on another larger stock exchange board. Last month, eMax filed a large compliance document to NASDAQ and currently they are awaiting the approval for their new stock symbol and trading date for the company's new symbol since the company has been restructured recently. eMax Worldwide is also currently preparing for a very large and swift growth agenda that their Board of Directors has put in place for the company and their corporate holdings.

 

eMax Worldwide has recently hired a SEC attorney to help them with all their corporate filings to the SEC and currently is in the process of engaging an SEC auditing firm

 

As eMax continues to update their corporate filings and finish their audits shareholders will be able to find all the materials at their corporate website as they are filed with the respective agencies. This year a lot of regulation requirements has changed by the new President's Administration, and for the better. However, the additional request of information on publicly trading companies has now caused companies a little longer time frame to complete name changes, mergers and acquisitions and or capital restructuring. At the eMax website, you will find links to the important forms and listing requirement files which the corporation has to work within the guidelines; and you can read on your own the new guidelines that eMax and you as a shareholder in the OTCBB companies has to work within currently at www.finra.org.

 

We at eMax must have the final approval of NASDAQ and the ticker symbol effective date so we can finish issuing the last of four dividends that our company currently owes to our shareholders.

 

Also at this time, eMax is working on the following matters:

 

1. eMax is scheduling a shareholder meeting for the last weekend in February next year in Panama City Beach, Florida.

 

2. eMax is currently preparing the completion of corporate audits for the company.

 

3. eMax is preparing a disclosure information statement that is filed with FINRA, which will help us to complete to get into complete compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

4. eMax is preparing to spin out EMAX Media Group and issuing a new stock dividend to our shareholders. Shareholders dividends in the previous companies, Freedom Entertainment and EntertainMax Worldwide, will be allowed to be exchanged into EMAX Media Group at that time and those shares will also be registered as freely trading shares.

 

5. eMax is currently in the pre-production stages of numerous music and Television projects and will be announcing the events in the very near future.

 

6. eMax has recently invested partly in the Real Estate construction company, named Washington Realty Corporation and that company specializes in concrete installation and finishing services.

 

7. eMax has recently moved its operating headquarters to Washington County, Florida. The Real Estate opportunities that are available in the county are like no other areas eMax has seen for a long time and it is attributed to the following reasons: a) There is a new international airport being built and will be opening spring of next year. 2) Washington County also has a great Technological Vocational School and 3) a slate of county officials that are very proactive in the community to help companies like eMax grow and succeed.

 

We are living in very uncertain times like a lot of people have never seen in the past. eMax is still very committed to invest in and increase business in the areas that are needed desperately today such as clean family media, entertainment and communications, innovative and economical new technologies, and affordable housing and other real estate development needs.

 

INFINITY ENERGY RESOURCES INCORPORATED (OTC: IFNY)

"Up 70.00% on Wednesday"

 

Detailed Quote: http://www.otcpicks.com/quotes/IFNY.php

 

Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. is an independent energy company engaged in the exploration, development and production of natural gas and oil in Texas and the Rocky Mountain region of the United States. The Company also has oil and gas concessions covering 1.4 million acres offshore Nicaragua in the Caribbean Sea.

 

IFNY News:

 

December 2 - Independent Analysis of Seismic Data Suggests Infinity Energy Resources Offshore Nicaraguan Concessions Potentially Contain Over Three Billion Barrels of Oil in Eocene Zones

 

* Initial Results From Seismic Interpretation Confirms Presence Of Numerous Structures With Potential For Multiple Pay Zones

 

* Company To Attend Nape Expo In Houston February 11-12, 2010

 

Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. (OTC: IFNY) ("Infinity" or the "Company"), an independent oil and gas exploration and development company, announced that it has received the results from an independent analysis of 2-D seismic data covering its approximately 1.4 million-acre oil and gas concessions offshore Nicaragua. The Company will host an investor conference call on December 10, 2009 to discuss this subject further (see details provided below).

 

The seismic data was acquired from Fugro Data Services AG, a unit of Fugro N.V. ("Fugro"), a Netherlands-based global leader in the collection and interpretation of data and the provision of advice related to the Earth's surface, the sea bed, and the soil and rocks beneath.

 

Analysis and interpretation of the seismic data was conducted by Brazilian-based Consultoria em Geologia Geofisica e Informatica do Petroleo LTDA ("CGGIP") and its senior geological consultant, Luciano Seixas Chagas, working in concert with Thompson & Knight Global Energy Services in Houston, Texas.

 

Mr. Chagas, who holds a Ms. Sci. Degree in Sedimentary Geology and Stratigraphy from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, has over 35 years of experience in the exploration of sedimentary basins around the world. He is considered an expert in sedimentary, stratigraphic and structural characteristics and petroleum systems. Mr. Chagas served with Petrobras for over 30 years in several technical and managerial positions, during which time he was involved in the successful exploration and field development of onshore northeastern Brazilian basins. Since 2004, he has provided consulting services to various oil companies operating in Brazil through his own company, CGGIP. Mr. Chagas has published more than 50 papers and articles on the Petroleum Geology of several Brazilian sedimentary basins, particularly the Reconcavo, Sergipe-Alagoas and Potiguar basins. He lectures regularly on subjects such as Stratigraphy, Structural Geology, Petroleum Geology, and Well Log Analysis at various Brazilian universities.

 

"Our consultants' preliminary analysis of the seismic data that we acquired from Fugro in September 2009 reveals the presence of at least three major structures beneath the relatively shallow waters of our offshore Nicaraguan concessions," stated Stanton E. Ross, Chief Executive Officer of Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. "While our internal analyses have indicated potentially large deposits of hydrocarbon resources in the Eocene and Cretaceous geologic zones, this is the first time that an independent third party has validated our thesis."

 

"Our independent consulting firm estimated that the three structures potentially contain over three billion barrels of oil in the Eocene zones alone, subject to their various assumptions. The seismic data was based on a survey conducted in 1999 and multiple surveys acquired during the 1970s and reprocessed by Fugro in 1999. Our consultants were unable to evaluate the deeper Cretaceous formations or estimate the potential for additional resources in these deeper zones with the available seismic data. Some of the largest oil discoveries in the Caribbean and Western Atlantic basins in recent years have been found in the Cretaceous pay zones, and we have reasonable expectations that Cretaceous, in addition to Eocene, hydrocarbons are present within our concessions."

 

"Infinity is in the process of preparing an informational presentation that we expect to utilize in discussing the Nicaraguan opportunity with potential strategic and/or financial partners," continued Ross. "A number of private, publicly-traded, and national oil and gas companies have been identified as prospective partners, and we expect to enter into discussions with interested parties beginning in January 2010."

 

The Company plans to attend the NAPE Expo (formerly the North American Prospect Expo) in Houston in February 2010. NAPE, the world's largest E&P (upstream) exposition, attracts over 900 exhibiting and/or presenting companies to its February exposition, and provides a marketplace for the buying, selling and trading of oil and gas prospects and producing properties.

December 1 - Fortress Financial Group, Inc. Offers Update Regarding the Sale of Company's Gold Mining Assets and a Possible Bid for the Company

 

Company Is in Advanced Negotiations to Sell Its Highly Valuable Gold Properties and Is Also Considering an Offer Which Could Result in the Outright Acquisition of the Company

 

Fortress Financial Group, Inc. (OTC: FFGO) confirmed in an announcement dated November 23, 2009 that it was in advanced discussions, which if successful, will result in the disposal of its entire remaining interests in its two Gold Properties, those being the "Bouse" and "South Copperstone" Gold Properties; or the possibility of the outright acquisition of your Company by a third party.

 

In that same announcement, Stockholders were cautioned that the value placed on their Company's interests in these two Gold Properties was very material and that stockholders should only rely upon the facts and valuations that are published by your Company's Management; particularly in respect of the impact upon the value per share of your Company's Common Stock.

 

Company Management is now giving a price per share guideline of our Common Stock based upon:

 

* The unprecedented number of requests for information regarding the possible valuation of the Company's interests in these two Gold Properties; and

 

* The Record Highs being set in the price of Gold, thereby making your company worth considerably more than what was originally discussed with interested parties; and

 

* The enormous trading volumes and pricing volatility in the Company's shares of Common Stock in the past ten days; and

 

* Management's view as to the minimum acceptable price for its Gold Properties.

 

Fortress Management is now prepared to state that a successful sale of the Company's interests in the two Gold Properties, after the settlement of outstanding Loan Notes due by the Company in the amount of US$5 million, would not be an amount of less than US$0.003 (three tenths of a cent) per share for our stock. This calculation is predicated upon the current number of outstanding shares of our stock. Your Company successfully repurchased and cancelled approximately 50% of its outstanding shares in and during 2009, resulting in this greatly reduced number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, as well as the significantly increased value of these shares of our Common Stock.

 

Fortress shares of Common Stock closed at a price of US$0.0002 (two hundredths of a cent) per share on Monday, November 30, 2009. The pricing guideline of US$0.003 per share provided by Management clearly reflects the effect of today's Gold price (the Gold price having traded at a new All Time Record High this morning, at US$1,199.20/oz) upon your Company's assets and that our shares of Common Stock are clearly extremely undervalued at this time.

 

Our team of Mining and Business Professionals have deliberated at length, and have decided that we are able to state the following: "We are not prepared, under any circumstances, to entertain, nor to discuss any Offer for your Company's interests in these two Gold Properties for an amount of less than the above-mentioned price per share of your Company's Common Stock. We have made this quite clear to all interested parties, and we expect that a satisfactory resolution is attainable, in short order."

 

Your management wishes to stress "That is not to say that we believe that your Company's interests in these two Gold Properties are not worth more than the above-mentioned price per share of Common Stock. We are very aware of the historical valuations and the Geological Reports that are publicly available in respect of these two Gold Properties; and which were prepared at substantially lower Gold prices than Gold's current trading price of nearly US$1,200/oz." While we certainly would like to realize our true asset value in regard to these two properties, and while we are eager to sign the contracts of sale in regards thereto, we will not sell these assets for anything less than their real-time present value.

 

Fortress' Management is obliged to inform our valued stockholders that the Company's interests in these two Gold Properties are not worth an amount of US$700 million, a valuation which certain of our stockholders appear to embrace at this time. Such off-the-cuff valuations for our share of these two Gold Properties, while pleasant to think about, is not based in reality.

 

We are not in a position to provide any further details at this point in time due to the sensitivity of ongoing negotiations, and we wish to ensure that your Company's Management achieves the best possible price for its stockholders in respect of its sale of the Company's interests in these two Gold Properties, or in the alternative, in the sale of the company in its' entirety. OF COURSE, ANY SALE WILL BE SUBJECT TO SUCCESSFUL CLOSING, AND NO ASSURANCE CAN BE GIVEN THAT THE GOLD PROPERTIES WILL BE SOLD AT THIS, OR ANY OTHER, PRICE PER SHARE.

 

Fortress Financial's Management states for the record: "The proceeds received by your Company upon a successful sale of its interests in the two Gold Properties, or of the Company itself, will not be retained by your Company but paid to our stockholders as a Single Liquidation Dividend. This is however, subject to the nature of the deal consummated by your Company in respect of the sale of these two Gold Properties."

 

Since our significant stockholder partners in these holdings have indicated a strong interest in participating in a sale of "Bouse" and "South Copperstone" Gold Properties, we do not expect or anticipate that the final negotiations to this sale will be a long protracted event.

 

In regards to questions about the possibility of a full bid to purchase your Company, Management can only say that this does remain a possibility, but we legally cannot comment any further at this juncture, due to ongoing negotiations.

 

We urge our stockholders to remain vigilant, while we finalize the examination of the opportunities laid out before us. Rest assured that we intend to exact a fitting price for our holdings.
