PART III
NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable
detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not
be filed within the prescribed time period.
The Registrant is unable
to file its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 (the “Form 10-K”) by the prescribed
date of March 31, 2015, due to having insufficient funds for payments to, among others, the independent registered public accounting
firm that audits the annual consolidated financial statements of the Registrant and the independent resource industry consulting
firm of the Registrant that prepares the Registrant’s reserve report. The Registrant is actively pursuing a possible financing
alternative as a means to increase the Registrant’s available cash to fund operational needs. The Registrant intends to use
a portion of the net proceeds from any such financing transaction to pay such service providers. While no assurances can be given
that the Registrant will be successful in consummating such financing transaction, the Registrant would anticipate filing the Form
10-K within 60 days following receipt of any such funds, subject to any restrictions or other conditions imposed on the Registrant
in such financing transaction.
