Strategic Environmental & Energy Resources Completes $1.5 Million Equity Funding

COMMERCE CITY, CO -- (Marketwire) -- 12/05/12 -- Strategic Environmental & Energy Resources, Inc. ("SEER") (PINKSHEETS: SENR), a technology-driven services company in the environmental, renewable energy, oil & gas, refining and rail sectors, announced today that it has completed a $1,500,000 round of equity financing. The financing will enable the Company to accelerate its expansion into existing markets, strengthen its balance sheet, and launch its new technologies into related but expanded markets.

"In addition to the obvious financial boost this capital will provide, the equity partners have already become strategic partners in the Company's go-forward plans," stated John Combs, CEO. "The Company had been offered other financing options, but we waited until the right combination of capital, resources, and relationships came together."

Combs added that SEER expects to become a fully reporting company in the first half of 2013 and, together with its new equity partners, launch new technologies and implement aggressive domestic and international expansion plans.
