Senior Facility & Corporate Valuation

The Company has received a large increase in the borrowing base, providing it with access to additional non-dilutive capital which is available to supplement cash flow from operations and to further its growth plans.

WAFD, the provider of the Facility, estimate of Future Net Income has increased by 6% whilst Net Present Value (at a 10% discount rate) has increased by 18% since the prior redetermination in March 2022. The Borrowing Base of the $10,000,000 Senior Facility has been increased to US$4,350,000 based on improved production during the first half of 2022, hence an additional US$1,000,000 is available for utilisation compared with 28 March 2022. As at 30 June 2022, the Company had drawn down $3,235,000 under the Senior Facility.

The size of the Facility and Borrowing Base will continue to be reassessed at least twice yearly. The Board anticipates the Facility and Borrowing Base will continue to expand as the Company's production, cashflows and reserves increase. The current interest rate on the facility is 6.5%. The Facility is not restricted to any geographical region and can expand further for use with acquisitions of other producing assets.

Asset Valuation

WAFD has updated its borrowing base estimate using a report from a third-party engineering firm, APN Energy ("APN"), effective 1 September 2022. The report was prepared by APN for the Company for submission to WAFD. The Company expects to report updated reserve figures in the next redetermination.

Assets included are as follows:

Asset	Operator	Interest (%)	Status	Lease expiration	Total Acres (gross)
Pine Mills	NTOG	100%	Producing and Development	HBP	2,320
Pine Mills (Cypress farmout)	Cypress	32.5%	Producing and Development	HBP	160
Permian Basin	NTOG	53-100%	Producing and Development	HBP	1,280
