Acquisition and the nature and scope of the Property conveyed to the Company.
As additional consideration for the Release and as part of the Settlement Agreement, the Company
issued 200,000 shares of restricted common stock of the Company to the Doaks. The Company and the
Parties also agreed to a mutual release of claims arising from or relating to the conveyances by

Parties or ownership of the Companys common stock by any of the Parties.
