January 4 - Infinity Enters Into Asset Sale and Joint Venture Agreements With Forest Oil Corporation

Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. (NASD: IFNY) ("Infinity"), an independent oil and gas exploration and development company, announced that its wholly-owned Infinity Oil & Gas of Wyoming, Inc. ("Infinity-Wyoming") subsidiary entered into a definitive Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement with Forest Oil Corporation (NYSE: FST) ("Forest Oil") on December 27, 2007.

Under the terms of the Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement, Infinity-Wyoming has agreed to sell, and Forest Oil has agreed to purchase, essentially all of Infinity-Wyoming's producing oil and gas properties in Colorado and Wyoming, along with 80% of the working interest owned by Infinity-Wyoming in undeveloped leaseholds in Routt County, Colorado and Sweetwater County, Wyoming, for $17.4 million in cash, subject to ordinary and customary adjustments from the effective date of October 1, 2007 through the date of closing, which is anticipated to occur on or about January 7, 2008. The closing of the Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement is contingent upon the satisfaction of certain customary closing conditions.

Infinity currently expects the adjusted proceeds from the sale to be approximately $16 million. Sale proceeds will be utilized to (1) retire approximately $12 million in outstanding bank debt; (2) settle open oil and gas commodity derivative liabilities of less than $2 million; and (3) pay accrued interest and forbearance fees and prepay interest totaling approximately $0.8 million to Amegy Bank N.A. The remainder of the sale proceeds, along with amounts to be received from Forest Oil under the Farmout and Acquisition Agreement described below, are anticipated to be reserved for the payment of certain accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

"We are very pleased to announce this agreement to sell our Colorado and Wyoming producing properties to Forest Oil Corporation," stated Stanton E. Ross, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. "Not only will the transaction allow Infinity to significantly reduce its bank debt, but we will retain 100 percent ownership of the Piceance Basin and Labarge exploratory properties in the Rocky Mountains and have retained the right to a 20 percent working interest in any future wells that Forest may drill in the Sand Wash Basin on the exploratory acreage sold."

Also on December 27, 2007, Infinity Oil and Gas of Texas, Inc. ("Infinity-Texas"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Infinity, entered into a Farmout and Acquisition Agreement for certain oil and gas leaseholds owned by Infinity-Texas in Erath County, Texas. The Farmout and Acquisition Agreement provides that Forest Oil will operate and earn a 75% interest in the spacing unit for each well in a ten-well drilling program. If Forest Oil completes the drilling program, Forest Oil will earn a 50% interest in the approximate 31,000 remaining undeveloped net acres and existing Erath County infrastructure owned by Infinity. The drilling obligation begins no later than March 15, 2008. Infinity Texas retains 100% of its interest in all currently completed wells and 100 acres surrounding each currently completed well.

"We are delighted that Forest Oil has agreed to joint venture with Infinity-Texas in the development of a significant portion of our acreage in the Barnett Shale play in Erath County," noted Ross. "The acreage involved in the joint venture is largely undeveloped, and Infinity will retain full ownership of the 24 wells we have drilled in the northern portion of Erath County, along with our acreage and wells in Comanche County, Texas. We are optimistic that our operating cash flows will be sufficient to service our remaining bank debt and future corporate overhead expenses."

"The sale of the Rocky Mountain properties and farmout of the Texas Erath acreage to an experienced and well-qualified operator completes the first part of a business plan designed to resolve Infinity's liquidity problems and bring the Company back to a growth mode," stated Dr. Renato Bertani, Infinity's Chief Operating Officer. "The transactions were structured not only to raise the proceeds necessary to substantially reduce the Company's debt but also to afford Infinity a participation in the upsides that we have identified in the undeveloped acreage of both areas."

"Looking forward, in addition to the prospects for our joint venture with Forest Oil in Texas and the exploration potential of our other properties in Texas and the Rocky Mountains, Infinity management will devote its primary attention to our 1.4 million-acre offshore oil and gas concession in Nicaragua. We are scheduled to travel to Nicaragua again in January 2008 for what will hopefully be a productive meeting with federal and regional government representatives to finalize our exploration contracts. Once the contracts have been signed by all parties, Infinity plans to acquire additional seismic information and pursue discussions with potential partners in what we believe has the potential to be a 'world-class' oil and gas development opportunity," concluded Ross.

Infinity has filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC that provides significant additional information on the subjects discussed in this press release. Investors are encouraged to review such Form 8-K filing in detail.

January 3 - Plans for 2008 Follow Oil Production Increase at End of 2007

Lexaria Corp. (OTCBB: LXRA) (the "Company" or "Lexaria") announced an increase in oil and gas production and discusses plans for 2008.

PP F 52 BEGINS OIL PRODUCTION

Lexaria Corp. announced that a third well in Mississippi has begun production of oil. The well, acquired in 2006 as part of the 12-well Phase I drill program, was earlier completed as a gas well and began producing gas in mid-October, 2007. Small amounts of oil production began two weeks later and by mid-December the well was producing an average of over 100 mcf/d of natural gas and an average of 55 barrels of oil per day.

This newly producing oil well, the PP -F52, is located some 12 miles from the Company's Belmont Lake oil field. At this time the Company cannot project the potential oil reserves or production from this well, which were assigned a valuation of zero in its most recent proved reserves report. Lexaria has a 30% gross working interest in this well and all other wells under the Phase I agreement.

SALT-WATER DISPOSAL WELL ALLOWS FOR INCREASED GAS PRODUCTION

In the greater Palmetto Point area, Lexaria notes that its operator has recently completed a salt-water disposal well, which is beginning to be used to dispose of excess water produced as a by-product of certain of its gas wells. This new salt-water disposal well will decrease operational costs and is expected to improve the operational productivity of several existing gas wells. Additional existing nearby gas wells will be connected to this disposal well as quickly as possible, thereby increasing field gas production.

CAPITAL PLAN FOR BELMONT LAKE OIL FIELD FOR 2008

Lexaria and its operator currently plan to drill a horizontal development well in mid-2008, to more fully exploit the Belmont Lake oil field. While precise details are not yet finalized, Lexaria expects this proposed new well to offer the possibility of a substantial increase in oil production and cash flow. Under the current planned scenario, this proposed horizontal well has the ability to have a material impact on the Company's operational performance in 2008.

The Company continues to analyze different exploration and development scenarios for 2008. However as a corporate goal, Lexaria expects to between double and triple its production by the end of December, 2008 based on expected cash flows from existing producing wells.

Lexaria notes that its current cash position combined with cash flow from operations is expected to be roughly sufficient to meet all current obligations and expenses throughout most or all of 2008, including the drilling of the above-mentioned horizontal development well.

Separately, Lexaria notes that a recent exploration well, the PP F-6A, was abandoned due to encountering only non-commercial quantities of gas.

January 4 - Electron Solar Energy Selected by Two Major U.S. Manufacturers to Distribute Wind Energy Systems

Electron Solar Energy (OTC: ESRG), an international distributor of alternative energy systems, announced that it entered into a sales and distribution arrangement with two major U.S. manufacturers of wind energy systems to bring their wind generators to the Latin American and Caribbean markets.

President and CEO of Electron Solar Energy, Christopher Quinn said, “Wind energy is a very exciting renewable and eco-friendly technology. This move represents an important complement to our suite of solar energy products. On cloudy days, wind power is ideal for use as a compliment or add-on to solar energy systems, and is a viable power generation option in itself, in lieu of solar panel arrays in other regions. Wind generator technology is being embraced by Latin American countries like Brazil, Argentina, Mexico and Costa Rica as a means to cost-effectively bring reliable power to remote locations as well as densely populated cities without using existing power lines.”

“Many of our existing distributors have requested wind generator systems, and we are now capable of dispatching industry-leading wind generator systems directly from our warehouse in Miami, Florida to anywhere in Latin America or the Caribbean with same-day delivery if needed. We have a knowledgeable staff and web portal capable of communicating in English, Spanish or French, which enables us to best serve hard-to-reach markets in need of renewable energy sources,” added Quinn.
