Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On June 9, 2006, Big Sky Energy Corporation (the “Company”) retained the services of a private, independent, third-party consulting firm to assist the Company with regard to certain title and other issues that have arisen as to certain of the Company’s hydrocarbon properties (the “Services”) located in Kazakhstan, given the difficulties and challenges the Company has faced and had to contend with (as previously reported).
The Company has issued options to the consulting firm to purchase up to 25 million shares of the Company’s common stock, which grant the right to the consulting firm, dependent on their success in delivering the Services and, thus, in securing clear title to these blocks. The options are exercisable after a period of six (6) months from their grant, have an exercise price equal to the five (5) day weighted average closing bid price of the Company’s stock prior to June 9, 2006 and are resaleable after exercise and payment therefore upon either expiration of a period of one (1) year from the date of exercise or upon the necessary Form SB-2 Registration Statement becoming effective, whichever is the earlier. Also, upon the successful completion of the Services, the consulting firm shall be deemed to have acquired an indirect participating interest in such hydrocarbon properties. The par ties have agreed to subsequently convert the value of the consulting firm’s interest in such hydrocarbon properties into common shares of the Company.
If, however, the Services are not successfully completed within six (6) months from the date of the agreement, the options shall immediately terminate with no further rights.
Item 5.02 – Election of Director
On June 9, 2006, the Company expanded the number of authorized members of its Board of Directors to nine (9) in anticipation of the appointment of a nominee of consulting firm referenced in Item 1.01 above to the Board.
