On December 9, 2011, David Rapaport resigned from as a director and Chairman of the Audit Committee of the Company. The resignation was due to other time consuming commitments of Mr. Rapaport and his resignation was in no way the result of any dispute with respect to the financial statements, and/or policies of the Company, and he has advised the Company and its auditor that he was not aware of any disputes between the Company and its auditor.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On December 13, 2011 the Company filed suit in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma against CAVU Resources, Inc. for breach of contract, interest, attorney’s fees and costs and such other relief as is appropriate.
BACKGROUND:
In December 2009, the Company paid $300,000 to CAVU Resources, Inc., a service company, under the terms of an equipment lease agreement with a third party for redevelopment of four wells located in Pawnee County, Oklahoma. This $300,000 payment was initially accounted for as a production payment receivable and is due from CAVU Resources, Inc.
In September, 2010, the Company entered into a written agreement with CAVU Resources, Inc. for CAVU to pay to the Company $130,000, plus interest, of the $300,000 advanced to them. The payment due pursuant to this agreement was due in December, 2010, bears interest at 12% per annum, and the entire remains unpaid with no payments made to date.
