AEHI Class Action Settlement Based on SEC Complaint Is Final

BOISE, ID — (Marketwire) — 11/09/12 — (PINKSHEETS: AEHI) today announced Hon. Judge B. Lynn Winmill finalized settlement proceedings regarding a class lawsuit, which was filed by the Rosen Law Firm in January 2011. The suit essentially duplicated a complaint filed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which was filed in December 2010.

The settlement was finalized October 31, 2012 following an agreement between AEHI and stockholders, which was fulfilled by AEHI in June 2012 through a payment of $450,000. The amount was agreed upon during a settlement conference in April 2012.

As part of the settlement, all defendants, including AEHI, Don Gillispie, and Jennifer Ransom, admit no wrongdoing and see this as a means to reduce further litigation costs to the company

The lawsuit also provides a method for stockholders to receive compensation for any potential losses they may have incurred, following the 2010 complaint from the SEC.

Any questions regarding settlement or payment should be referred to the Rosen Law Firm at 212-686-1060.
