ABSOLUTELY FALSE. Below is a recap of all the RECENT "INSIDER BUYING" by QS directors.

(1) On 8/5/2016 Don Dickson invests $70,000 in a Private Placement offering of convertible notes and warrants.

(2) On 10/13/2016 Don Dickson converts his note into common stock.

(3) On 4/17/2017 Dr. Eric Bunting invests $50,000 in a Private Placement offering of convertible notes and warrants.

(4) On 5/15/17 Richard Munn invests $10,000 in a Private Placement offering of convertible notes and warrants. He immediately convert the notes to common stock.

(5) On 5/15/2017 Richard Munn buys 42,000 shares of common stock in the open market at $0.24 per share.

(6) On 5/31/2017 Thomas Bundros invests $100,000 in a private Placement of convertible notes and warrants. He immediately converts the notes to common stock.

(7) On 7/19/2017 Dr. Eric Bunting invests an additional $40,000 to convert his warrants and stock options into common stock well before their expiration dates.

(8) On 7/30/2017 Don Dickson invests an additional $38,500 to convert warrants into common stock.

(9) On 8/2/2017 Gary Buchler invests $50,000 to buy common stock at market prices and convert all of his vested stock options.

(10) On 10/2/2017 Dr. Eric Bunting invests an additional $33,875 to buy 125,000 shares of common stock in the open market at $.271 per share. He also converts 178,002 of his newly vested stock options into common stock at an out of pocket cost of $12,460 . This brings his total common stock holdings to 6,735,430 shares worth approx. $1.8 million at today's price.

All of the individuals named above are part of QSEP's Board of Directors. All of them are investing their own money in QSEP. While NDA's may prevent them from talking about the specifics of any particular corporate relationships, this is a powerful alternative way to express just how confident they are in QSEP's immediate future.

I've emphasized the word immediate because I think the motivation for early conversion of 10 year stock options is based on a strong belief that the stock will be going substantially higher in the near term. This early conversion will reduce the future tax burden substantially if that were to occur (long term capital gain instead of ordinary income).

The "bargain element" of a stock option is taxed as ordinary income while the remaining gain is taxed at the lower capital gains rate. Exercise of a stock option while the underlying security price is low insures that the "bargain element" will also be low allowing for the best tax outcome (the bargain element is the difference between the price at the time of exercise and the grant price). For the owner of a QSEP stock option it requires a very powerful incentive to give up a 10 year "free look". A savvy investor would hold onto a stock option as long as possible, exercising and putting up money only at a time when the outlook was so positive that it is likely to move the stock substantially higher. Anybody exercising their stock options today must feel now is that time.

INCORRECT. I would NOT want to be SHORT on QS Energy. I notice the SHORT POSITION in QS Energy is increasing as per the EVIDENCE in the short report below.

http://otcshortreport.com/company/QSEP?index=qsep&action=view#.Vc0xR17ovIU

That is true, I have far lower margin requirements than 250k, so at 250k it doesn't make a lot of sense.

I am short and wouldn't like be long

I have been short since 2014, and will keep my short position up just to keep me interested in the story

If orders materialize and the company starts generating cash flow commensurate with the current market capitalization, I am more than willing to admit that I am wrong and cover my short position.

but I still have a residual short position left to keep my interested. If the stock goes up more, I might increase my short position.

I just think that this is a worthless POS pump-and-dump scheme that has been fleecing shareholders for years, and that is the reason I've been short this name for a few years.

The FACT is right now it is very evident that major material events are in the works. Events that will change the face of the company when any of them come to fruition. QS Energy has that exciting feel at the moment. Many ducks are lining up. Which duck will be first ?

CENOVUS
KINDER MORGAN
TRANSCANADA
Energy Tech
Middle East
Statoil
Norrant
China
North America
South America
Ireland
Russia, cold old Russia
Africa
IRAQ
Southern California Edison
Pacific Gas & Electric
TAL OIL
AWP Petro (operator of the Adria-Wein pipeline, which is connected to the Transalpine pipeline)

KM how many units would they want on that condensate line ?

Middle East, imagine them, what if they want 40 banks of 4, that would be 160 units. How many units would you use on the oil platform?

All this company needs is just one thing to go right and it will explode to the upside.

I'm looking forward to it !!!

Those particular companies haven't paid a dime for a very long time

Ahh yes, BUT THEY DID PAY. And the fact they were paid at all I say is far more important than the length of time they were paid. It's paid or not paid is the bar one must look at, not the length of time, as we are trying to establish in this argument if we have seen any significant commercial interest. Without a doubt I do not think anyone can argue that they have not seen significant commercial interest in the past.

I absolutely think there is there here.

Also, KM had to approve them going onto QSEP's board at the time. KM know exactly what's going on here, and the fact is we do not know if the two KM board members are on QSEP's board representing KM or not. Have either the company or the directors said either way? They have not. I think they are representing KM, no question about it. It's simply too big of a coincidence that TWO extremely high level executives at Kinder Morgan join the board of a small no name penny stock company that Kinder Morgan has just coincidentally at random had 4 major tests with their new oil pipeline product/technology. Where there's smoke there's fire, and any decent investor will say that there are no coincidences like this.

I disagree with Alkaline in that I think a deal is coming in the near future. We shall see. If one does, it will only be the beginning of a many extremely lucrative contracts to come. We are talking many many millions in revenue just to start.
