Empire Energy Corporation Intl. (fka EEGC)

[Hello Operator]

I don't know.

The cynic in me wants to interpret the quote differently:

"Our new business partner Geominex Resources Limited CEO, Zamayi Sithole, today subscribed to purchase 15 million Empire common shares at a price of $0.07 per share in order to show confidence and assure that the rig stays in place and the drilling program proceeds successfully."

But I can't find much wrong with it except the slightly ambiguous word "subscribed". Perhaps that allows the entire quote to remain open to interpretation, and thus allows Empire to continue to leverage words for shareholder confidence. I have never "subscribed" to purchase shares from a company. Has anyone else?

The optimist in me wants to believe what Empire espouses, but I think my inner cynic has won this battle. I no longer hold a position in EEGC. I think I will optimistically observe for a while.

Nonetheless, I sincerely wish the best of luck to all of you who remain in the fray.
