On May 26, 2015, Alberta Oilsands Inc. announced that it was in receipt of $35,087,246, inclusive of applicable interest, as compensation for the cancellation of the said oil sands leases. The increase in total compensation amount from the initial amount announced on March 20, 2015 is a result of additional accrued interest since that date.

As the Company is now able to confirm receipt of the $35 million compensation amount, AltaCorp Capital will make available to qualified parties, upon execution of a standard non-disclosure agreement, access to proprietary technical, financial, legal and other information.
