(“Novusterra”) related to certain patents and technologies held by American Resources related to the development, production and commercialization of graphene and carbon nanostructures (the “Graphene Technologies”). Pursuant to the Agreement, American Resources will:
| 1. | Sell the exclusive rights to the Graphene Technologies held by American Resources Corporation to Novusterra Inc. for 4.0 million shares valued at $4.00 per share; |
|
|
|
| 2. | Andrew Weeraratne will step down from the board and as an officer of Novusterra. Dr. Greg Jensen will be named CEO and Director. Dr. Gerardine Botte will be named Chief Technology Officer and Mark LaVerghetta will be named Chairman of the Company, Mark Jensen will step down as Chairman; and |
|
|
|
| 3. | Novusterra Inc. will issue: |
|
|
|
| a. | Dr. Gregory Jensen: 1.1 million. |
| b. | Dr. Gerardine Botte to join as the CTO: 1.0 million. |

The Novusterra shares issued are not registered and will not be registered in connection with the Agreement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state’s securities laws, on the grounds that the transaction in which the shares are to be issued qualifies for applicable exemptions from the securities registration requirements of such statutes. The exemptions being claimed include, but are not necessarily limited to, those available under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and the reliance by Novusterra upon the exemptions from the securities registration requirements of the federal and state securities laws, is predicated in part on the representations, understandings and covenants set forth in the Agreements.
The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement between American Resources and Novusterra which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report and incorporated by reference herein.
