LOS ANGELES--(Business Wire)--
Emvelco Corp. (NASDAQ:EMVL) disclosed this week that it has
entered into the final stages of negotiation on a term sheet to
purchase and receive from an entity that owns certain gas development
rights, all the mineral acreage and land rights for drilling on
property located in Texas.

   The Company said in a document filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission that the purchase price will be $50 million as the
first increment which may be increased up to $250 million based on
actual proven developed production. In consideration of the actual
assignment of the gas lease rights, Emvelco said it will issue a
minimum of 50 million new shares to the seller. The share price will
be at an agreed upon price of $1 a share in exchange for all the
shares of the entity that may be transferring the gas lease rights.

   The Company is undertaking due diligence and upon proof of good
title to the gas lease rights, the transaction will be presented to
the board of directors for approval, according to the filing.
