Boca Raton, Florida, March 3, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Poly Shield Technologies Inc., (OTCQB: SHPR) announces that on February 28, 2014, Poly Shield signed an Addendum No. 2 to its December 1, 2012 Employment Agreement with Rasmus Norling (the "Addendum") the Company's Chief Technical Officer, as previously amended by Addendum dated effective as of December 30, 2013 (as amended, the "Employment Agreement"). As set forth in the Addendum, the Company and Mr. Norling agreed to extend the term of certain contractual obligations set out under the Employment Agreement from February 28, 2014 to March 31, 2014.
The parties have agreed to this extension in order to give them sufficient time to come to a mutual agreement on the restructuring of the terms under which Mr. Norling holds 154,000,000 shares of restricted and escrowed shares of the Company's common stock previously issued to Mr. Norling under the Employment Agreement (the "Custodial Stock"). Current discussions between the Company and Mr. Norling revolve around Mr. Norling forfeiting his rights to the majority of the Custodial Stock and permanently retaining a portion of that Custodial Stock in exchange for the transfer of certain technology rights from Mr. Norling to the Company. Readers are cautioned that no definitive or binding agreements have been executed by the Company and Mr. Norling with respect to the proposed restructuring, and the terms and conditions of such restructuring are subject to change.
