Mr. Cobb did not participate in discussions related to the contracts between Cobb Oil and the Company during our 2011 fiscal year.

In evaluating the independence of our directors, we considered the following factors: (i) the business relationships of our directors; (ii) positions our directors hold with other companies; (iii) family relationships between our directors and other individuals involved with the Company; (iv) transactions between our directors and the Company; and (v) compensation arrangements between our directors and the Company.
