CHICAGO, Feb. 28, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- United American Healthcare Corporation (OTC: UAHC), an emerging technology holding company,
today announced the appointment of Dr. Katrina Cornish as scientific advisor of its wholly-owned subsidiary American Sustainable Rubber Company, LLC (“ASR”), an indoor agriculture technology company
focused on creating a domestic solution to natural rubber production.
Dr. Cornish has over thirty years of experience working in rubber biosynthesis and alternative feedstocks in the Government,
Commercial, and University sectors. She is the Ohio Research Scholar and Endowed Chair of Bio Emergent Materials at The Ohio State
University. Dr. Cornish is a fellow of the National Academy of Inventors and the American Association for the Advancement of
Science, and CEO of EnergyEne, Inc.
“We are thrilled to have Dr. Katrina Cornish supporting our research and development team as scientific advisor of American
Sustainable Rubber,” said Timothy Madden, President of ASR. “Dr. Cornish is a globally known expert on genetic modification and
biochemistry of alternative rubber plants, as well as rubber and latex production, processing, and products. She is the original
researcher who demonstrated that rubber could be sourced from hydroponic plants and from genetically altered plants, which we plan
to leverage to commercial and scale natural rubber production. Having her as an advisor to our team is a nod to our strategic plan
to bring a natural rubber supply to the United States. We believe that her years of experience working in the rubber and plant
science industries, paired with her research capabilities, will enable us to achieve our mission and change natural rubber
production as we know it.”
Dr. Cornish currently leads a program on alternative rubber production, bio-based fillers, and exploitation of opportunity
feedstocks from agriculture and food processing wastes for value-added products and biofuels, among her other projects. She has
authored over 250 papers and holds 20 patents.
“I am honored to be appointed scientific advisor of ASR and look forward to working closely with Timothy Madden, President of
ASR, and the entire team on creating a natural rubber solution for the United States market at a commercial and sustainable level,”
said Dr. Cornish. “I am passionate about the work that ASR is doing and look forward to bringing the vision to fruition.”

Some of the specific risks and uncertainties involved the company’s business plan include, but are not limited to, the
following: (i) the possibility that the company will not achieve its objective of becoming a leading provider of natural rubber
through the further development of the TK dandelion for such purposes; (ii) the commercialization of alternative technological
advancements that could render the company’s solutions less valuable in the marketplace; (iii) the failure of the company to
successfully develop and commercialize the technology that it licenses; (iv) the inability of the company to obtain the financing
it needs to carry out its business plans; (v) the inability of the company and its partners to modify the TK dandelion to a point
where it contains enough natural rubber to make a commercially viable product; (vi) a market shift away from natural rubber to
synthetic rubber or other substitutes; (vii) the development by competitors of alternative ways to produce natural rubber that
render the dandelion approach comparatively ineffective; (vii) challenges based on intellectual property claims could be brought
against the company or its licensor; and (viii) other market factors, including without limitation, macroeconomic, regulatory, tax
policy, cyber security, currency, climate change, international trade and geopolitical risks.
