paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that are incorporated by reference to this Registration Statement; (2) that, for the purpose of
determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof; and (3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. </FONT></P>

claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </FONT></P>

Item 4. Description of Securities.
Authorized Capital Stock
Our authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares, of common stock, par value $.0001 per share.
Description of Common Stock
All shares of common stock have equal voting rights and are entitled to one vote per share in all matters to be voted upon by shareholders. Our shares have no pre-emptive, subscription, conversion or redemption rights.
Cumulative voting in the election of directors is not permitted, which means that the holders of a majority of our issued shares represented at any meeting where a quorum is present will be able to elect the entire Board of Directors. In that event,
the holders of the remaining shares of common stock will not be able to elect any directors. In the event of liquidation, each shareholder is entitled to receive a proportionate share of our assets available for distribution to shareholders after
the payment of liabilities and after distribution of preferred amounts. Holders of stock are entitled to share pro rata in dividends and distributions with respect to the common stock out of funds legally available for that purpose.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
As of the date of this registration no named expert or counsel holds any specified interest or significant equity in the Company.
Page 4
Americas Energy Company-AECo - Form S-8
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Our officers and directors are indemnified as provided by the Nevada Revised Statutes and our bylaws.
Article VI of our Bylaws states certain indemnification rights.  Our Bylaws provide that we possess and may exercise powers of indemnification for officers, directors, employees, agents and other persons.  Our Board of
Directors is authorized and empowered to exercise all of our powers of indemnification, without shareholder action.  Our assets could be used to satisfy any liabilities subject to indemnification.
Under the NRS, director immunity from liability to a company or its shareholders for monetary liabilities applies automatically unless it is specifically limited by a company's articles of incorporation which is not the
case with our articles of incorporation. Excepted from that immunity in our articles of incorporation are:
(a)
acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law; or
(b)
the payment of dividends in violation of NRS78.300
DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling
persons pursuant to the provisions of State Law or our Articles of Incorporation or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Item 9. Undertakings
A. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:(1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:(i) to include
any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act; (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement(or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement; and(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this
Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement; provided, however, that clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that are incorporated by reference to this Registration Statement; (2) that, for the purpose of
determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof; and (3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
B. The undersigned Company hereby undertakes that for purposes of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each filing of the Company's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section
15(d) of the 1934 Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act, as amended, may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing
provisions or otherwise, the Company has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a
claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
