On December 30, 2016 registrant completed the purchase of certain
Utah based oil and gas assets from an entity owned by of New Times Energy Corporation Limited (“NTE”), a Bermuda limited
liability company whose shares are listed on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited for a combination of cash,
notes and shares having an aggregate purchase price of $10.75 million. See registrant’s Form 8-K filed with the Commission
on January 6, 2017. Registrant has been integrating this acquisition within the operations of registrant. The year-end timing of
the acquisition and the nature of the assets acquired, including rights, acreage and shut in wells, two of which have subsequently
been brought into production, have impacted registrant’s ability timely to account for the assets acquired.
