Item
1.01 - Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On
November 30, 2010, SCS Corporation, our subsidiary, entered into an Agreement
with AGR Peak Well Management Limited (“AGR”) effective November 24, 2010, for
AGR to manage our exploration drilling project (“Drilling Project Management
Contract”) in offshore Republic of Guinea
(“Guinea”). Under the terms of the Drilling Project Management
Contract, AGR will handle well construction project management services,
logistics, and tendering of materials as well as overall management
responsibilities for the drilling program. We have been conducting
exploration work pursuant to a grant of exclusive contractual rights by the
Republic of Guinea, and are concentrating our efforts on preparation for
drilling in late 2011.
The
estimated cost of the Drilling Project Management Contract is $6.8
million. We expect our share of the cost to be 77% of that
amount. The Drilling Project Management Contract provides that AGR
will receive as an incentive 10% of the gross savings to us on the following
costs:
