The Company
Subsequent to November 21, 2006, we have no business operations and our
principal asset consists of our cash and short-term investment balances,
which approximated $47.9 million at March 31, 2007. As a result, we are a
shell company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended. Our Board of Directors intends to consider the
appropriate application of our remaining cash and short-term investment
balances, including but not limited to the possible acquisition of
producing oil and gas properties and related businesses and assets or the
equity in another entity which owns such properties, businesses and assets,
the distribution of some or all of our assets to our shareholders, or our
liquidation and dissolution. There can be no assurance our Board of
Directors will authorize any such transaction.
