Item 3.02  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

On July 8, 2016, we sold a total of 10,000 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred”) to certain investors at a purchase price of $100 per share for total consideration of $1,000,000.  We filed the Certificate of Designation for the Series C Preferred with the Secretary of State of Nevada on July 8, 2016.  The designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights of the Series C Preferred are as follows: (i) a stated value of $100 per share; (ii) mandatory conversion on the earlier of 92 days after the spud date of Hazel Prospect or October 13, 2016, with each holder having the right to convert at its election any time before that; (iii) a conversion price of $1.01 per share of common stock; (iv) each holder has the right to convert its shares into a proportionate heads up working interest in the Hazel Prospect, provided such election is made prior to the mandatory stock conversion date described in “(ii)” above, which working interest will be determined by dividing the number of shares the holder is converting by 10,000 and multiplying the result by one-third; (v) no rights to dividends; (vi) no voting rights; and (vii) in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders will be entitled to be paid out of the assets available for distribution to our stockholders, before any payment is be made to the holders of common stock, but after the payment to the holders of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.

The securities in the offering were issued under the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, including Regulation D.  The issuance of securities did not involve a “public offering” based upon the following factors: (i) the issuance of the securities was an isolated private transaction; (ii) a limited number of securities was issued to a limited number of purchasers; (iii) there were no public solicitations; (iv) each purchaser represented that it was an “accredited investor”; (v) the investment intent of the purchasers; and (vi) the restriction on transferability of the securities issued.
