                             Questions And Answers

Q:   Why Am I Receiving These Materials?

A:   The board of directors of Energy Exploration Technologies, a Nevada
     corporation (sometimes referred to in these proxy materials as "we," "our
     company" or "NXT"), is providing these proxy materials for you in
     connection with our annual meeting of shareowners to be held on September
     14, 2000. As a holder of record or beneficial owner of either our NXT
     common stock or NXT series `A' preferred stock, you are invited to attend
     the meeting and are entitled to and requested to vote on the proposals
     described in this proxy statement reserved for your class of NXT stock.

Q:   What Information Is Contained In These Materials?

A:   The information included in this proxy statement relates to the proposals
     to be voted on at the meeting and the voting process, as well as additional
     information concerning NXT we are required to give you under Securities and
     Exchange Commission regulations. We are also including with this proxy
     statement our annual report on form 10-K, which includes an updated
     description of our business and our full consolidated audited financial
     statements for our most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.

Q:   What Proposals Are Our Common Shareholders Entitled To Vote Upon At Our
     Annual Meeting?

A:   There are two proposals scheduled to be voted on at the annual meeting by
     our common shareholders:

     .    the election of six directors, whom we refer to in this proxy
          statement as our "common directors;" and

     .    the ratification of Arthur Andersen LLP as our independent auditors
          for fiscal 2000.

Q:   What Is NXT's Voting Recommendation To The Holders Of Our Common Stock?

A:   Our board of directors recommends to our common shareholders that you vote
     your shares "FOR" each of the six common director nominees to our board of
     directors, and "FOR" the ratification of Arthur Andersen LLP as our
     independent auditors for fiscal 2000.

Q:   What Proposals Are Our Series `A' Preferred Shareholders Entitled To Vote
     Upon At Our Annual Meeting?

A:   There is one proposal scheduled to be voted on at the annual meeting by our
     series `A' preferred shareholders, namely, the election of two directors,
     whom we refer to in this proxy statement as our "series `A' directors."
     These are positions on our board of directors that we are obligated under
     our Articles of Incorporation to provide to our series `A' preferred
     shareholders so long as any series `A' preferred stock is outstanding.

Q:   What Is Nxt's Voting Recommendation To The Holders Of Our Series `A'
     Preferred Stock?

A:   Our board of directors recommends to our series `A' preferred shareholders
     that you vote your shares "FOR" each of the series `A' director nominees to
     our board of directors.

                                      -2-


Q:   What Shares Owned By Me Can Be Voted?

A:   You may vote all shares which you own as of the close of business on July
     17, 2000, the record date for this annual meeting. These shares include:

     .    shares held directly in your name as the shareowner of record, and

     .    shares held for you as the beneficial owner through a stockbroker or
          bank.

Q:   What Is The Difference Between Holding Shares As A Shareowner Of Record And
     As A Beneficial Owner?

A:   Most NXT shareowners hold their shares through a stockbroker, bank or other
     nominee rather than directly in their own name.  As summarized below, there
     are some distinctions between shares held of record and those owned
     beneficially.

     .    Shareowner Of Record: If your shares are registered directly in your
          name with our transfer agent and registrar, Jersey Transfer & Trust
          Co., you are considered to be the shareowner of record, with respect
          to those shares, and these proxy materials are accordingly being sent
          directly to you. As the shareowner of record for these shares, you
          have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to NXT or to vote
          in person at the meeting. We have enclosed a proxy card for you to
          use.

     .    Beneficial Owner: If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account
          or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner
          of shares held in street name, and these proxy materials are being
          forwarded to you by your broker or nominee, which is considered the
          shareowner of record with respect to those shares. As the beneficial
          owner of these shares, you have the right to direct your broker how to
          vote and are also invited to attend the meeting. However, since you
          are not the shareowner of record, you may not vote these shares in
          person at the meeting. Accordingly, your broker or nominee has
          enclosed a voting instruction card for you to use in directing the
          broker or nominee how to vote your shares.

Q:   How Can I Vote My Shares In Person At The Meeting?

A:   Shares held directly in your name as the shareowner of record may be voted
     in person at the annual meeting.  If you choose to do so, please bring the
     enclosed proxy card and proof of identification.

     Even if you currently plan to attend the annual meeting, we recommend that
     you also submit your proxy as described below so that your vote will be
     counted if you later decide not to attend the meeting. Shares held in
     street name may be voted in person by you only if you obtain a signed proxy
     from the record holder giving you the right to vote the shares.

Q:   How Can I Vote My Shares Without Attending The Meeting?

A:   Whether you hold shares directly as the shareowner of record or
     beneficially in street name, you may direct your vote without attending the
     meeting. You may vote by granting a proxy or, for shares held in street
     name, by submitting voting instructions to your broker or nominee.

     .    Record Holder: In cases where you are the record holder of the shares,

                                      -3-


          you should submit your proxy directly to NXT's stock transfer and
          registrar, Jersey Transfer & Trust Company, either by mail or by
          facsimile. Jersey Transfer & Trust Company's address is 201 Bloomfield
          Avenue, Verona, New Jersey, USA 07044, and its facsimile number is
          (973) 239-2361.

     .    Beneficial Owner: In cases where you are beneficial holder of shares
          held in street name, you will be able to submit your proxy over the
          internet, by telephone, or by mail. Please refer to the summary
          instructions below and those included on your proxy card or, for
          shares held in street name, the voting instruction card included by
          your broker or nominee.

          By Internet: If you have internet access, you may submit your proxy
          -----------
          from any location in the world by following the "Internet Vote"
          instructions on the proxy card.

          By Telephone: If you live in the United States or Canada, you may
          ------------
          submit your proxy by following the "Telephone Vote" instructions on
          the proxy card.

          By Mail: You may do this by signing your proxy card or, for shares
          -------
          held in street name, the voting instruction card included by your
          broker or nominee and mailing it in the enclosed, postage prepaid and
          addressed envelope.

     If you provide specific voting instructions, your shares will be voted as
     you instruct. If you sign but do not provide instructions, your shares will
     be voted as described below in "How Are Votes Counted?"

Q:   Can I Change My Vote?

A:   You may change your proxy instructions at any time prior to the vote at the
     annual meeting. For shares held directly in your name, you may accomplish
     this by granting a new proxy bearing a later date (which automatically
     revokes the earlier proxy) or by attending the annual meeting and voting in
     person. Attendance at the meeting will not cause your previously granted
     proxy to be revoked unless you specifically so request. For shares held
     beneficially by you, you may accomplish this by submitting new voting
     instructions to your broker or nominee.

Q:   How Are Votes Counted?

A:   In the election of directors, you may vote "FOR" all of the nominees for
     which your class of NXT securities entitle you to vote, or your vote may be
     "WITHHELD" with respect to one or more of those nominees.

     For the other proposals for which your class of NXT stock entitles you to
     vote, including the ratification of the appointment of our independent
     auditors in the case of our common shareholders, you may vote "FOR,"
     "AGAINST" or "ABSTAIN." If you "ABSTAIN," it has the same effect as a vote
     "AGAINST."

     If you sign your proxy card or broker voting instruction card with no
     further instructions, your shares will be voted in accordance with the
     recommendations of our board of directors, i.e.:

     .    with respect to the election of nominees to our board of directors,
          "FOR" all of NXT's nominees for which your class of NXT securities
          entitle you to vote;

                                      -4-


     .    with respect to the ratification of independent auditors for fiscal
          2000, "FOR" the ratification of Arthur Andersen LLP; and

     .    with respect to any other matters that properly come before the
          meeting for which your class of NXT stock entitles you to vote,
          including the ratification of the appointment of our independent
          auditors in the case of our common shareholders, in the discretion of
          the proxy holders as discussed below in "Q: What Happens If Additional
          Proposals Are Presented At The Meeting?"

     Each of our director nominees has consented to his nomination for election.
     Should any director nominee no longer remain a candidate at the time of our
     annual meeting, your proxy card will be voted for the election of a
     replacement nominee to be designated by our board of directors to fill that
     vacancy.

Q:   What Is The Voting Requirement To Approve Each Of The Proposals?

A:   In the election of the common director positions, the six persons receiving
     the highest number of "FOR" votes by the holders of our common stock will
     be elected. In the case of the election of the series `A' directors
     positions, the two persons receiving the highest number of "FOR" votes for
     each of these positions by the holders of our series `A' preferred stock
     will be elected.

     All other proposals, including the ratification of the appointment of our
     independent auditors, require the affirmative "FOR" vote of a majority of
     those shares present and entitled to vote. If you are a beneficial owner
     and do not provide the shareowner of record with voting instructions, your
     shares may constitute "broker non-votes" as that term is described in "Q:
     What Is The Quorum Requirement For The Meeting?" below. In tabulating the
     voting result for any particular proposal, shares that constitute broker
     non-votes are not considered entitled to vote on that proposal.

Q:   What Does It Mean If I Receive More Than One Proxy Or Voting Instruction
     Card?

A:   It means your shares are registered differently or are in more than one
     account. Please provide voting instructions for all proxy and voting
     instruction cards you receive.

Q:   Do I Need An Admission Ticket To Attend The Meeting?

A:   All NXT shareholders are welcomed to attend our annual meeting. You will,
     however, be required to provide proof of identification if you are listed
     as a shareowner of record as of the record date (July 17, 2000), and desire
     to vote your shares at the annual meeting. If you hold your shares through
     a stockbroker or other nominee, you will also need to provide proof of
     ownership by bringing either a copy of the voting instruction card provided
     by your broker or a copy of a brokerage statement showing your share
     ownership as of the record date.

Q:   Where Can I Find The Voting Results Of The Meeting?

A:   We will announce preliminary voting results at the meeting and publish
     final results in our quarterly report on form 10-Q for the third quarter of
     fiscal year 2000, which we expect to release in mid-November 2000. We will
     also post an update on our website at www.nxtenergy.com.

                                      -5-


Q:   What Happens If Additional Proposals Are Presented At The Meeting?

A:   Other than the proposals described in this proxy statement, we do not
     expect any other matters to be presented for a vote at the annual meeting.
     If you grant a proxy, the persons named as proxy holders, namely, Messrs.
     George Liszicasz (our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer) and Daniel C.
     Topolinsky (our President and Chief Operating Officer), will have the
     discretion to vote your shares on any additional matters properly presented
     for a vote at the meeting. If for any unforeseen reason any of our nominees
     is not available as a candidate for director, the persons named as proxy
     holders will vote your proxy for such other candidate or candidates as may
     be nominated by our board of directors.

Q:   What Classes Of Shares Are Entitled To Vote At the Meeting?

A:   Generally speaking, our common shareholders are entitled to vote on all
     matters that affect our company, with the exception of selected matters
     enumerated in our Articles of Incorporation that are reserved for our
     series `A' preferred stock. These matters generally relate to any actions
     that may adversely affect the rights and privileges reserved for that class
     of securities.

     Each share of common stock and series `A' preferred stock outstanding as of
     the close of business on the record date (July 17, 2000) will be entitled
     to one vote on all proposals being voted upon at the annual meeting by that
     class of securities, including any additional proposals. As of the record
     date, we had 13,087,516 shares of common stock and 800,000 shares of series
     `A' preferred stock issued and outstanding.

Q:   What Is The Quorum Requirement For The Meeting?

A:   The quorum requirement for holding our annual meeting and transacting
     business is a majority of the outstanding shares of the two classes of our
     securities entitled to vote at that meeting (i.e., our common stock and
     series `A' preferred stock) present in person or represented by proxy and
     entitled to be voted. Both abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as
     present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.
     Abstentions are also counted as shares present and entitled to be voted.
     Broker non-votes, however, are not counted as shares present and entitled
     to be voted with respect to the matter on which the broker has expressly
     not voted. Thus, broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of any of the
     matters being voted upon at the meeting. Generally, broker non-votes occur
     when shares held by a broker for a beneficial owner are not voted with
     respect to a particular proposal because the broker has not received voting
     instructions from the beneficial owner, and the broker lacks discretionary
     voting power to vote those shares.

Q:   Is Cumulative Voting Permitted For The Election Of Directors?

A:   Cumulative voting does not apply to our annual meeting as we are not
     required under Nevada corporate law, and have not elected under our
     Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, to provide for cumulative voting.

Q:   Who Will Count The Votes?

A:   A representative of our company will tabulate the votes and act as the
     inspector of election.

                                      -6-


Q:   Who Will Bear The Cost Of Soliciting Votes For The Meeting?

A:   NXT will pay the entire cost of preparing, assembling, printing, mailing
     and distributing these proxy materials. If you choose to access the proxy
     materials or vote over the internet, however, you will be responsible for
     any internet access charges you may incur. In addition to the mailing of
     these proxy materials, the solicitation of proxies or votes may be made in
     person, by telephone or by electronic communication by our directors,
     officers and employees, who will not receive any additional compensation
     for those solicitation activities. We will reimburse brokerage houses and
     other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-
     pocket expenses for forwarding proxy and solicitation materials to
     shareowners.

Q:   May I Propose Actions For Consideration At Next Year's Annual Meeting Of
     Shareowners Or Nominate Individuals To Serve As Directors?

A:   You may submit proposals for consideration at future shareowner meetings,
     including director nominations.

     Nomination Of Director Candidates: You may propose director candidates for
     consideration by our board of directors. Any recommendations for director
     candidates should be directed to the NXT Corporate Secretary at our
     executive offices in Calgary, Alberta. In addition, our Bylaws permit
     shareowners to nominate directors at a shareowner meeting. In order to make
     a director nomination at a shareowner meeting, it is necessary that you
     notify NXT not fewer than 120 days in advance of the day specified as the
     mailing date in our proxy statement for the prior year's annual meeting of
     shareowners. Thus, since August 1, 2000 is specified as the mailing date in
     this year's proxy statement, in order for any such nomination notice to be
     timely for next year's annual meeting, it must be received by NXT not later
     than April 3, 2001 (i.e., 120 days prior to August 1st). In addition, the
     notice must meet all other requirements contained in our Bylaws.

     Any nomination for a director nominee must contain the following
     information:

     .    the nominee's name, age, business address and, if known, residence
          address;

     .    the nominee's principal occupation or employment; and

                 Proposal No. 1:  Election Of Common directors
                    (Vote reserved for common shareholders)

There are six nominees for election to our board of directors as common
directors this year, namely, Messrs. George Liszicasz, Daniel C. Topolinsky, R.
Dirk Stinson, Lorne W. Carson, Dennis R. Hunter and John A. Thomson.  Each of
the nominees has served as a common director since our last annual meeting,
except for Mr. Thomson, whom our board of directors appointed to serve as a
common director on February 15, 2000, and who will stand for election as a
director by our common shareholders for the first time at this year's annual
meeting.  Information regarding the business experience of each of these
nominees is provided below.  The common directors are elected annually to serve
until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until their respective
successors are elected and qualified.  There are no family relationships among
our executive officers and common directors except as described below.

The designated proxy holders will vote each proxy received by them from our
common shareholders as directed on their proxy cards or, if no direction is
made, for the six nominees named below.  If any of these nominees should be
unable or unwilling to serve, the discretionary authority granted to the proxy
holders as provided in the proxy card will be exercised to vote for a substitute
nominee designated by our board of directors.  We have no reason to believe that
any substitute nominee will be required.

The six nominees receiving the highest number of votes cast by our common
shareholders will be elected to fill the six common director positions.  The
proxies cannot be voted for more than six nominees.

Our board of directors recommends to our common shareholders that you vote "FOR"
the election of Messrs. Liszicasz, Topolinsky, Stinson, Carson, Hunter and
Thomson as our six common directors.  Proxies solicited by our board of
directors will be so voted unless the common shareholder tendering the proxy
specifies otherwise.

George Liszicasz                   Mr. Liszicasz, who is also NXT's Chief
Age 46                             Executive Officer, is the inventor of our SFD
Director since January 1996        technology and one of our founders. Mr.
                                   Liszicasz's primary responsibilities with NXT
                                   are further developing our SFD technology,
                                   particularly the SFD sensor and data
                                   acquisition and interpretation functions. Mr.
                                   Liszicasz's interest in quantum-related
                                   phenomenon lead to his initial discovery of
                                   the existence of stress field energy patterns
                                   in 1992, which subsequently lead to the
                                   development of early prototypes models of
                                   what has since evolved into a multiple
                                   sensor-based SFD Survey System. Mr. Liszicasz
                                   has since acquired a working knowledge of the
                                   oil exploration business and geological and
                                   geophysical sciences.

                                   As a result of major advancements in the
                                   early development of the SFD Survey System,
                                   Mr. Liszicasz formed our wholly-owned
                                   subsidiary, NXT Energy USA Inc., in September
                                   1995 to exploit our SFD technology for
                                   hydrocarbon purposes, and was appointed as
                                   its Chief Executive Officer and as one of its
                                   directors. NXT Energy USA Inc. then acquired
                                   our parent

                                   Canadian Venture Exchange.

                                   Mr. Thomson received his Bachelor of Business
                                   Administration degree from the University of

               Proposal No. 2:  Election Of Series `A' Directors
             (Vote reserved for series `A' preferred shareholders)

There are two nominees for election to our board of directors as series `A'
directors this year, namely, Messrs. Jon E.M. Jacoby and K. Rick Turner.  Each
of the nominees has served as a series `A' director since our last annual
meeting.  Information regarding the business experience of each of these
nominees is provided below.  The series `A' directors are elected annually to
serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until their respective
successors are elected and qualified.  There are no family relationships among
our executive officers and series `A' directors except as described below.

The designated proxy holders will vote each proxy received by them from our
series `A' shareholders as directed on their proxy cards or, if no direction is
made, for the two nominees named below.  If any of these nominees should be
unable or unwilling to serve, the discretionary authority granted to the proxy
holders as provided in the proxy card will be exercised to vote for a substitute
nominee designated by series `A' shareholders and found reasonably acceptable by
our common directors.  We have no reason to believe that any substitute nominee
will be required.

                                      -12-


The two nominees receiving the highest number of votes cast by our series `A'
shareholders will be elected to fill the two series `A' director positions.  The
proxies cannot be voted for more than two nominees.

Our board of directors recommends to our series `A' shareholders that you vote
"FOR" the election of Messrs. Jacoby and Turner as our two series `A' directors.
Proxies solicited by our board of directors will be so voted unless the series
`A' shareholder tendering the proxy specifies otherwise.

     Proposal No. 3:  Ratification of Appointment of Independent Auditors
                    (Vote reserved for common shareholders)

The audit committee of our board of directors has recommended, and our board has
approved, the appointment of Arthur Andersen LLP as our independent auditors for
our 2000 fiscal year.  Since we

                                      -13-


believe it is important for NXT to receive your input on our selection of
independent auditors for our company, that appointment is being presented to you
for ratification. Arthur Andersen LLP has served as our independent auditors
since June 28, 2000, having replaced Deloitte & Touche LLP which served as our
independent auditors for our 1999 fiscal year, and which was unable to continue
in that capacity for reasons discussed below. We expect a representative of
Arthur Andersen LLP will attend the annual meeting, and we will extend the
opportunity to the representative to make a statement if he or she desires to do
so. This representative will also be available to answer any questions you may
have.

On June 28, 2000, our board of directors accepted the resignation of Deloitte &
Touche LLP as our independent auditors.  The resignation was tendered in
anticipation of a conflict of interest that would arise under the rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission governing the independence of auditors as the
consequence of a pending marriage between a sibling of NXT's controller and a
partner in Deloitte & Touche's Calgary office.  Deloitte & Touche audited our
consolidated financial statements for our two most recent fiscal years ended
December 31, 1999, and reviewed our consolidated financial statements for the
quarter ended March 31, 2000.  The report of Deloitte & Touche accompanying the
audit for our two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 1999 was not
qualified or modified as to audit scope or accounting principles and did not
contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion.

During our two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 1999, and also during
the subsequent interim period through the date of resignation, there were (1) no
disagreements between NXT and Deloitte & Touche on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or
procedure; (2) no reportable events as such term is defined in Regulation
229.304(a)(1)(v); and (3) no matters identified by Deloitte & Touche involving
our internal control structure or operations which was considered to be material
weakness.

During our two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 1999, and also during
the subsequent interim period through the date of resignation of Deloitte &
Touche LLP, NXT did not consult with Arthur Andersen LLP regarding the
application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either
completed or proposed, or the type of opinion that might be rendered regarding
our financial statements, nor did we consult with Arthur Andersen with respect
to any accounting disagreement or any reportable event at any time prior to the
appointment of that firm.

We included the above disclosures relating to Deloitte & Touche LLP and Arthur
Andersen LLP in a form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
June 29, 2000, and each of these independent auditors were provided an
opportunity to furnish a letter confirming these matters.  Those letters are
included as exhibits to that form 8-K.

You should note that your ratification of our selection of Arthur Andersen LLP
as our independent auditors for fiscal 1999 is advisory only and not binding
upon NXT, although our audit committee will seriously consider your objections
in not ratifying the appointment.  Even if our audit committee were to seek
other independent auditors as a consequence of your objections, it is likely,
because of the difficulty and expense of making any change in independent
auditors so long after the beginning of the current year, that the appointment
of Arthur Andersen would stand for our 2000 fiscal year unless the audit
committee were to find other good reason to make a change.  Our audit committee
also reserves the right to engage any other independent auditors at any time,
notwithstanding your ratification of Arthur Andersen as our independent auditors
for fiscal 1999, should it deem it to be in the best interests of NXT and its
shareholders.

                                      -14-


Our board of directors recommends that you vote "FOR" the ratification of the
appointment of Arthur Andersen LLP as our independent auditors for our 2000
fiscal year.  Proxies solicited by our board of directors will be so voted
unless the holder of common stock tendering the proxy specifies otherwise.

                        Proposal No. 4:  Other Matters

The enclosed proxy card gives the proxy holder discretionary authority to vote
the shares held by the shareholder tendering the proxy in accordance with the
proxy holder's best judgment with respect to all additional matters which might
come before the annual meeting.  In addition to the scheduled items of business,
the annual meeting may consider shareholder proposals omitted from this proxy
statement pursuant to the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission
and matters related to the conduct of the annual meeting.  At the date of
printing of this proxy statement, we are not aware of any other matter which
would be presented for action before the annual meeting.

                              Board Of Directors

Our board of directors was comprised of seven directors in fiscal 1999, and held
four meetings during that fiscal year.  No director attended less than 75% of
the total number of those meetings.  Our board of directors also approved
numerous additional corporate matters during fiscal 1999 through unanimous
written consents.  We increased the size of our board in February 2000 to eight
directors.

Our Bylaws permit our board of directors to fix the number of its authorized
members from three to eleven.  At present, our board of directors consists of
eight members, of which six members are "common directors" appointed by our
common shareholders, and the remaining two members are "series `A' directors"
appointed by our series `A' preferred shareholders.  This classification of our
board of directors was effectuated pursuant to an amendment to our Articles of
Incorporation made in connection with the private placement in April 1998 of
800,000 shares of our series `A' preferred stock.

Specifically, our Articles of Incorporation were amended to provide that our
common shareholders would retain the exclusive right to elect all members of our
board of directors, unless there are 400,000 or more shares of our series `A'
preferred stock outstanding, in which case our series `A' preferred shareholders
would have the right to appoint one or more additional directors.  The number of
directors which our series `A' preferred shareholders may elect under such
circumstances would, when aggregated with the number of common directors, equal
one-sixth of such aggregated number of directors (or such minimum whole number
- ---------
in excess of one-sixth in the event such number of aggregated directors is not a
multiple of six).  Since we currently have six common directors, we are
obligated under our Articles of Incorporation to appoint two series `A'
directors.

Our Articles of Incorporation specifically provide that our common shareholders
shall have no right to vote for the series `A' directors, and our series `A'
preferred shareholders shall have no right to vote for the common directors.
The removal of any series `A' directors shall require only the affirmative vote
of holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of our series `A'
preferred stock.  The vacancy of any series `A' director position, from whatever
cause, shall require only the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the
then outstanding shares of our series `A' preferred stock.

                                      -15-


The nominees of our series `A' preferred shareholders for the series `A'
director positions must be persons reasonably acceptable to our then serving
common directors.  Any additional series `A' director position created is not
aggregated with the common directors for purposes of determining the number of
series `A' directors that our series `A' preferred shareholders may elect.

                           Standing Board Committees

Our board of directors has established two committees, a compensation committee
and an audit committee.

Our compensation committee, which was comprised of Messrs. Carson and Turner
through February 15, 2000, and is currently comprised of Messrs. Carson and
Hunter, reviews and makes recommendations with respect to compensation of NXT's
executive officers and directors, and also administers certain elements of NXT's
various stock plans as they relate to grants to executive officers and
directors.  The compensation committee held one meeting during our 1999 fiscal
year.

Our audit committee, which was comprised of Messrs. Turner and Carson through
February 15, 2000, and is currently comprised of Messrs. Turner and Thomson,
held one meeting during our 1999 fiscal year.  The audit committee's duties
include recommending to our board of directors the engagement of our independent
auditors, reviewing the results of the auditor's examination of our periodic
financial statements, and determining the independence of those accountants.

Our audit committee has not adopted a written charter to date, although it
anticipates it will do so by the end of fiscal 2000.  With the exception of Mr.
Turner, each of the members of our audit committee to date (Mr. Carson through
February 2000 and Mr. Thomson thereafter) are considered "independent" within
the meaning of the rules of Nasdaq and the New York and American Stock
Exchanges.  Although Mr. Turner is not considered independent by reason of his
being employed by Stephens Group Inc.--since it is deemed to be an "affiliate"
of NXT by reason of its shared voting and investment control over our series `A'
preferred stock--our board of directors nevertheless believes it to be in the
best interests of NXT and its shareholders for Mr. Turner to continue to serve
on the audit committee as a consequence of his professional accounting
background and experience and overall financial sophistication.  Moreover, our
board of directors does not believe that Stephens Group Inc.'s shareholdings
influence Mr. Turner's independence since:  (1) the series `A' preferred shares
indirectly held by Stephens Group Inc. do not contain any material rights that
gives this class of securities any control over NXT's business; (2) the series
`A' preferred shares, if converted into common stock, would constitute only 5.8%
of our common shares outstanding; and (3) control of NXT in any event is
effectively lodged in the hands of two other shareholders with interests that
differ from NXT, namely, Messrs. Liszicasz and Stinson, who collectively hold
approximately 65.3% of our common shares.  The information contained in this
paragraph shall not be deemed incorporated by reference by any general statement
incorporating by reference this proxy statement into any filing under the
Securities Act of 1933 or Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent
that NXT specifically incorporates this paragraph by reference, and shall not
otherwise be deemed filed under such acts.

                                      -16-


                         Compensation Of Our Directors

NXT's practice to date in compensating directors has been to grant options to
selected directors in lieu of monetary compensation for serving on our board of
directors, although we do cover some expenses incurred for board services.
Summarized below are options granted to date to our current board members for
serving in that capacity:

 .    On May 20, 1997, NXT granted stock options to each of Messrs. Liszicasz and
     Stinson entitling them to purchase 45,000 shares of common stock for the
     period of service as directors beginning in May 1997 and ending in May
     2000. On March 10, 1998, NXT granted stock options to purchase 45,000
     shares of common stock to Mr. Carson for the period of service as a
     director beginning in March 1998 and ending in March 2001. The exercise
     price for the options were $5.25 per share with respect to the options
     granted to Messrs. Liszicasz and Stinson, and $8.31 with respect to the
     options granted to Mr. Carson, all of which prices corresponded with the
     trading price of the common stock as of the respective dates of grant. All
     of the options are subject to vesting conditions based upon continued
     performance of services as a director, pursuant to which one-third of the
     granted options vested on the date of grant, and one-third of the granted
     options would prospectively vest on each of the first and second
     anniversaries of the date of grant, respectively. Each of these options are
     fully vested as of the date of this proxy statement. Each vested increment
     of the noted options expires five years from date of vesting, except that
     vested options expire, if earlier, one year after the date on which a
     director's service is terminated.

 .    On February 15, 2000, NXT and a majority of its stockholders adopted the
     2000 NXT Directors' Stock Plan, pursuant to which we reserved 400,000
     shares of our common stock for issuance to selected directors in the form
     of stock options. Also on February 15, 2000, we granted 15,000 options
     under this plan to each of our five outside independent directors, namely,
     Messrs. Carson, Hunter, Thomson, Jacoby and Turner, as compensation for
     their prospective services as members of our board of directors for the
     next three years commencing from the date of grant. The purchase price for
     these options were fixed at $28.75 per share, reflecting the closing
     trading price of our common stock as of the date of grant. On April 17,
     2000, we granted an additional 30,000 options under this plan to each of
     our five outside independent directors, as additional compensation for
     their prospective services as members of our board of directors for the
     next three years commencing from the date of grant. These options also vest
     in equal increments on the first through third anniversary dates of the
     date of grant, respectively, based upon continued provision of services as
     a director, and lapse, if unexercised, five years after the vesting date,
     unless the optionee's status as a director is terminated, in which case
     they lapse two years from date of vesting.

          Compensation Committee Interlocks And Insider Participation

During fiscal 1999, there were no actions taken by our board of directors
relating to the compensation of any of our executive officers who were also
serving as one of our directors (each of whom is referred to in this proxy
statement as an "executive officer-director").

     Liszicasz, Topolinsky, Ehrets, Woodbury and Thomson--c/o Energy Exploration
     Technologies, 840--7th Avenue SW, Suite 750, Calgary, Alberta, Canada T2P
     3G2; Mr. Stinson--14455 Ocean Blvd., Unit 1608, Miami Beach, Florida 33139;

     and Messrs. Jacoby and Turner and SFD Investment, LLC and Stephens Group,
     Inc.--111 Center Street, Suite 2500, Little Rock, Arkansas 72201.
(2)  The determination and calculation of beneficial ownership for purposes of
     preparing this table is based upon the definition of beneficial ownership
     in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act, pursuant to which a person is
     deemed to beneficially own any securities over which he or she has either
     investment or voting power.  You should note that this method of

                                      -19-


     calculation differs from that used to calculate beneficial ownership for
     other reports required under the Exchange Act, including section 16 of that
     act which calculates beneficial ownership based upon pecuniary interests.
     Pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d) of the Exchange Act, we have also included in
     each person's share count any shares under any options, warrants, rights or
     conversion privileges which are or may become exercisable by that person
     within 60 days of the date of calculation for purposes of this proxy
     statement.  In computing each person's respective percentage ownership, the
     shares attributable to his or her exercisable securities under the 60-day
     inclusion rule are treated as being outstanding (i.e., are added to the
     total outstanding shares of that class for computational purposes), while
     exercisable securities attributable to the other executive officers,
     directors or 5% shareholders under the 60-day inclusion rule are
     disregarded.  In computing the percentage ownership our company's officers
     and directors as a group, all shares attributable to exercisable securities
     held by the members of that group under the 60-day inclusion rule are
     treated as being outstanding (i.e., are added to the total outstanding
     shares of that class for computational purposes).  The base number of
     outstanding shares of common stock and series `A' preferred stock as of the
     applicable date are 13,087,516 and 800,000 shares, respectively.
(3)  Each share of series `A' preferred stock is convertible into one share of
     common stock.
(4)  Current director.
(5)  Director-nominee.
(6)  Executive officer.
(7)  5% shareholder.
(8)  Includes 45,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of free-
     standing directors options granted to Mr. Liszicasz.
(9)  Includes 85,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of options
     granted to Mr. Topolinsky under the 1999 Energy Exploration Technologies
     Executive Option Plan.
(10) Includes 73,500 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of options
     granted to Mr. Ehrets under the 1999 Energy Exploration Technologies

- ------------------------
(1)  The fair market value of the options as of the date of grant reflect the
     difference between (i) the aggregate fair market value of the common shares
     underlying the option as of the date of grant based upon the trading price
     for our common stock as of that date as quoted on the NASD Electronic
     Bulletin Board, and (ii) the aggregate exercise prices for the options.
(2)  The potential realizable dollar value of the options reflect the difference
     between (i) the aggregate fair market value of the common shares underlying
     the options as of the date of grant based upon the trading price for our
     common stock as of that date as quoted on the NASD Electronic Bulletin
     Board, as adjusted to reflect hypothetical 5% and 10% annual growth rates
     {simple interest} from the date of grant until the expiration dates for the
     options, and (ii) the aggregate exercise prices for the options.  The 5%
     and 10% are hypothetical growth rates prescribed by the Securities and
     Exchange Commission for illustration purposes only, and are not a forecast
     or prediction as to future stock prices. The actual amount that any named
     executive officer may realize will depend on various factors on the date
     the options are exercised, so there is no assurance that the value realized
     by any named executive officer will be at or near the value set forth above
     in the chart.
(3)  No SARs were granted to any named executive officer in fiscal 1999.
(4)  The numerator in calculating this percentage includes options granted to
     each named executive officer in fiscal 1999 in his capacity as an officer
     (employee) and, if applicable, as a director.  The denominator in
     calculating this percentage is 1,275,000, which represents options granted
     to all of the employees of NXT during fiscal 1999, including the named
     executive officers, including, if applicable, grants of options
     attributable to their capacities as directors.
(5)  Represents options to purchase common stock granted as an inducement for
     employment with NXT.  See "Employment Agreements With Executive Officers"
     below.
(6)  The exercise price for 300,000 of these options were fixed at $14 per
     share, representing the fair market value of the common shares underlying
     the options as of the date of NXT's employment proposal based upon the
     trading price for our common stock as of that date as quoted on the NASD
     Electronic Bulletin Board.  The exercise price for the remaining 200,000
     shares will be fixed at the closing price for our common stock on April 30,
     2001.
(7)  The exercise price for 268,336 of these options were fixed at $14 per
     share, representing the fair market value of the common shares underlying
     the options as of the date of NXT's employment proposal based upon the
     trading price for our common stock as of that date as quoted on the NASD
     Electronic Bulletin Board.  The exercise price for 26,664 of these options
     were fixed at $15 per share, representing the fair market value of the
     common shares underlying the options as of the date of commencement of
     employment, which represents the effective date of grant for purposes of
     preparing this chart.  The exercise price for the remaining 200,000 shares
     will be fixed at the closing price for our common stock on April 30, 2001.
(8)  For purposes of calculating the fair market value of the options as of the
     date grant and their potential realizable dollar value, the 200,000 options
     with an exercise price to be fixed as of April 30, 2001 are deemed to have
     an exercise price of $15 per share.

 Summary Of Stock Options & Stock Appreciation Rights Exercised By Our Named
                   Executive Officers And Year End Balances

The following table provides certain information with respect to each of our
named executive officers concerning any options to purchase common stock or
stock appreciation rights they may have exercised in fiscal 1999, and the number
and value of their unexercised options or stock appreciation rights as of
December 31, 1999:



                                                                            Unexercised In-The-Money Options and SARs at

- -------------------
(1)  No stock appreciation rights were exercised by any of our named executive
     officers in fiscal 1999, nor did any of our named executive officers hold
     any unexercised stock appreciation rights at December 31, 1999.
(2)  The dollar amount shown represents the difference between the fair market
     value of our common stock underlying the options as of the date of exercise
     and the option exercise price.
(3)  The dollar value provided represents the cumulative difference in the fair
     market value of our common stock underlying all in-the-money options as of
     December 31, 1999 and the exercise prices for those options.  Options are
     considered "in-the-money" if the fair market value of the underlying common
     shares as of the last trading day in fiscal 1999 exceeds the exercise price
     of those options.  The fair market value of NXT common stock for purposes
     of this calculation is $25.25, based upon the closing price for our common
     stock as quoted on the NASD Electronic Bulletin Board on December 31, 1999,
     the last trading day in fiscal 1999.
(4)  Stock options granted in connection with serving on our board of directors.
     See "Compensation of Directors" above for a summary of the terms of these
     options.
(5)  Stock options granted as an inducement for employment with NXT.  See
     "Employment Agreements With Executive Officers" below for a summary of the
     terms of these options

               Employment Agreements With Our Executive Officers

Mr. Liszicasz is employed by NXT as our Chief Executive Officer under a five-
year employment agreement entered into on April 1, 1997 which contains the
following principal compensatory provisions:

  .  An initial base salary of $7,000 per month, with an automatic increase to
     $10,000 per month effective January 1, 1998, and thereafter subject to
     annual increases as determined by our board of directors, but at least 5%
     on each anniversary date. Effective May 1, 1999, Mr. Liszicasz's monthly
     base salary was increased to Cdn. $20,000 by our board of directors, in
     order to be consistent with the monthly salaries to be paid to our newly
     hired President and Vice President of Operations. Mr. Liszicasz's current
     monthly base salary after taking into consideration his most recent 5%
     automatic increase on May 1, 2000 is Cdn. $252,000 (U.S. $170,201).

  .  An annual bonus equal to 5% of NXT's "net income after taxes" in the event
     NXT earns more than $5 million in net income after taxes in any fiscal
     year.

                                      -23-


  .  An annual performance bonus, as determined in the sole discretion of our
     board of directors.

Mr. Topolinsky is employed by NXT as our President and Chief Operating Officer,
and Mr. Ehrets as our Executive Vice President of Operations, under virtually
identical five-year employment agreements entered into on May 1, 1999 which
contain the following principal compensatory provisions:

  .  An initial monthly base salary of Cdn. $20,000, subject to annual increases
     as determined by our board of directors, but at least 5% on each
     anniversary date. Messrs. Topolinsky's and Ehret's current monthly base
     salaries after taking into consideration their most recent 5% automatic
     increase on May 1, 2000 is Cdn. $252,000 (U.S. $170,201).

  .  An annual performance bonus, as determined in the sole discretion of our
     board of directors.

  .  The grant of options to each of Messrs. Topolinsky and Ehrets entitling
     them to purchase 500,000 unregistered shares of our common stock. The first
     300,000 options granted to each of these executive officers vest
     incrementally over a period of 4 years of continuous employment, with the
     first increment of 85,000 shares vesting one year from the date of
     employment, the second increment of 90,000 shares vesting two years from
     the date of employment, the third increment of 95,000 shares vesting three
     years from the date of employment, and the last increment of 30,000 shares
     vesting four years from the date of employment. The purchase price per
     share for these options is $14 per share, which reflects the trading price
     for our common stock as of the date negotiations were entered into
     (although Mr. Ehrets requested a $15 per share exercise price for 33,330 of
     his options for U.S. income tax purposes). The remaining 200,000 options
     granted to each of these executive officers vest incrementally over a
     period of five years of continuous employment, with the first increment of
     75,000 shares vesting four years from the date of employment, and the last
     increment of 125,000 shares vesting five years from the date of employment.
     The purchase price per share for these options will be the closing price
     for our common stock on April 30, 2001. The noted options also fully vest
     in the event of a "change in control" or in the event the executive
     officer's employment is terminated by NXT for "cause" or by the executive
     officer without "good reason." All of the options lapse five years
     following the date of vesting, unless the executive officer's employment is
     terminated by NXT for "good cause" or by the executive officer without
     "good reason," in which case they lapse two years from date of termination.
     These options were subsequently issued under our 1999 Energy Exploration
     Technologies Executive Stock Plan.

Mr. Woodbury is employed by NXT as our Chief Financial Officer (Treasurer) and
Secretary under a two-year employment agreement entered into on July 8, 1998.
Mr. Woodbury is also our General Counsel.  This employment agreement contains
the following principal compensatory provisions:

  .  A monthly base salary of Cdn. $16,667, subject to annual increases as
     determined by our board of directors, but at least 5% on each anniversary
     date. Mr. Woodbury's current monthly base salary after taking into
     consideration his most recent 5% automatic increase on July 8, 2000 is Cdn.
     $220,500 (U.S. $148,926).

  .  An annual performance bonus, as determined in the sole discretion of our
     board of directors.

                                      -24-


  .  A loan to facilitate the purchase of a residence in Calgary, to be repaid
     in five years, and with interest thereon to be repaid periodically in the
     interim at a fixed rate of interest to be determined based upon NXT's cost
     of funds (6.44% per annum). Pursuant to this provision, NXT advanced Mr.
     Woodbury the sum of Cdn. $54,756 (U.S. $35,760). Payment of the loan is
     accelerated to ninety days should NXT terminate Mr. Woodbury for "cause"
     (as that term is defined below) or should Mr. Woodbury terminate his
     employment without "good reason" (as that term is defined below).

NXT also granted to Mr. Woodbury, in connection with his prospective employment,
options under our 1997 Energy Exploration Technologies Stock Plan to purchase
70,000 unregistered shares of our common stock.  The exercise price for these
options was subsequently fixed at $8.25 per share, which price was equal to the
trading price of the common stock on the date of approval of the grant by the
compensation committee.  These options vest 10,000 shares upon the first and
second anniversary dates, respectively, of the commencement of Mr. Woodbury's
employment (July 9, 1998), and 16,667, 16,666 and 16,667 shares upon the third
through fifth anniversary dates, respectively.  These options also fully vest in
the event of a "change in control" or in the event Mr. Woodbury's employment is
terminated by NXT without "good cause" or by Mr. Woodbury without "good reason."
All of the options lapse five years following the date of vesting, unless Mr.
Woodbury's employment is terminated by NXT for "good cause" or by Mr. Woodbury
without "good reason," in which case they lapse two years from date of
termination.

At the conclusion of their respective initial terms, each of the employment
agreements for Messrs. Liszicasz, Topolinsky, Ehrets and Woodbury renew
automatically for successive one year terms, unless NXT or the executive officer
elects by a written, 60-day notice not to renew; or the agreement is terminated
earlier in accordance with its terms.

Each of the employment agreements for Messrs. Liszicasz, Topolinsky, Ehrets and
Woodbury provides for early termination in the case of any of the following
events as defined in their respective employment agreements:

  .  death or disability;

  .  a "change in control" of NXT;

  .  termination of employment by NXT for "cause;" or

  .  termination of employment by the executive officer for "good reason."

Under the employment agreements a "change in control" means any of the
following:

  .  an acquisition whereby immediately after such acquisition, a person holds
     beneficial ownership of more than 50% of the total combined voting power of
     NXT's then outstanding voting securities;

  .  if in any period of three consecutive years after the date of the
     employment agreements, the then incumbent members of our board of directors
     cease to constitute a majority of the board for reasons other than
     voluntary resignation, refusal by one or more members of our board of
     directors to stand for election, or removal of one or more board member for
     good cause; or

                                      -25-


  .  our board of directors or shareholders approve a merger, consolidation or
     reorganization of NXT; the complete liquidation or dissolution of NXT; or
     the agreement for the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all
     of NXT's assets (a "sale").

In general, where a termination is for death, disability, "cause" or by the
executive officer without "good reason," the executive officer's compensation
allowances and benefits will accrue only through the effective date of the
termination.  However, and again in general, where a termination is due to a
"change in control," without "cause," or by the executive officer for "good
reason," the employment agreements provide that NXT will pay compensation and
certain allowances and benefits to the executive officer through the end of the
then applicable term, but not to exceed 18 months in the case of Messrs.
Topolinsky and Ehrets.

As noted above, if termination is attributable to a change in control, the
employment agreements provide that NXT will pay compensation and certain
allowances and benefits through the end of the then applicable term.  In
addition, in the case of Mr. Liszicasz, if the termination is directly or
indirectly attributable to a "sale," and the sale is approved by a
"disinterested majority" of our board of directors, then NXT will pay Mr.
Liszicasz an amount equal to 2% of the total consideration received by NXT in
connection with the Sale.

On April 1, 1997, NXT entered into a five-year employment agreement with Mr. R.
Dirk Stinson, our prior President through May 1, 1999, on terms identical to
those contained in Mr. Liszicasz's employment agreement with NXT.  On May 1,
1999, in connection with our employment of Mr. Daniel C. Topolinsky as
President, Mr. Stinson became a consultant to NXT for strategic planning issues,
at which time the provisions of Mr. Stinson's employment agreement became fully
vested (except for the provision of an automobile and cellular telephone
allowance and any right to performance bonuses, which Mr. Stinson waived), and
NXT entered into a supplementary non-exclusive consulting agreement with Mr.
Stinson through December 31, 2002.  The principal continuing compensatory
provisions under these agreements are as follows:

  .  Mr. Stinson will continue to receive an amount equal to his monthly base
     salary during the remaining term of the employment agreement (currently
     $11,025), subject to 5% annual increases as originally provided in the
     agreement.

  .  Mr. Stinson will continue to be entitled to receive an annual bonus equal
     to 5% of our "net income" (as defined in the employment agreement) in the
     event NXT earns more than $5 million in net income through the remaining
     term of the agreement, plus one additional year.

  .  Mr. Stinson will continue to be entitled to receive 2% of the total
     consideration received by NXT in connection with any Sale during the
     remaining term of the employment agreement.

  .  Mr. Stinson will be paid $1,000 per month for the provision of consulting
     services through the term of his consulting agreement with NXT.

                                      -26-


        Report Of Our Compensation Committee On Executive Compensation

The following is the report from the compensation committee of our board of
directors, which is comprised of two of NXT's independent directors.  The
compensation committee reviews and makes recommendations with respect to
compensation of NXT's executive officers and directors, and also administers
certain elements of our various stock plans.  This report addresses:

  .  our compensation policy as it relates to NXT's executive officers and key
     professionals; and

  .  the rationale for compensation paid and prospectively payable to NXT's
     principal executive officer for fiscal 1999, Mr. George Liszicasz, our
     Chief Executive Officer, under his employment agreement.

                         Compensation Committee Report

Compensation Policies

For NXT to progress beyond the development stage and to maximize the hydrocarbon
revenue-generation potential afforded by our SFD technology, it is necessary for
NXT to attract superior executives and key professionals from both the oil & gas
exploration and technology sections with the level of skill, knowledge, effort
and responsibility necessary to address the issues and strategies unique to NXT
and its business plan and technology.  These personnel include:

  .  the electrical, mechanical and computer scientists, engineers and
     programmers that are necessary to continue the development of our SFD
     technology, including data acquisition and data processing functions, and

  .  the geologists, geophysicists, geotechnicians, pilots and other operational
     support personnel that are necessary to collect and interpret SFD data and
     evaluate oil & gas exploration opportunities identified using our SFD
     technology.

In order to attract and retain qualified executives and key professionals, NXT's
executive and professional compensation program is designed to meet the
following objectives:

  .  to reward individual results and to induce loyalty in the short and
     intermediate term by recognizing performance through base salary and, once
     we have revenues, annual bonuses; and

  .  for the longer term, to reward individual results, induce long-term
     loyalty, and link the interests of these executives and key professionals
     with the interests of our shareholders by encouraging stock ownership in
     NXT through the grant of options tied to continued employment.

The initial amount of monthly base salary paid to executive officers and key
professionals is the amount, as determined by the compensation committee as
necessary to attract and retain executives with the requisite superior abilities
to both perform their executive and professional functions and, given the
developing nature of our business and our desire to maintain a lean staffing
profile, to provide cross-support for our other executives and professionals.
The determination of which executive officers and key professionals should
receive a bonus and/or grant of stock options, and what the amount of the bonus
and/or terms of the grant of stock options should be, is based

                                      -27-


upon a subjective analysis of the executive's or key professional's level of
responsibility, performance of duties, and contribution toward NXT's success,
and takes into consideration other types and amounts of performance based
compensation paid to them. All stock options granted to date are subject to
vesting conditions based on continued employment, which the compensation
committee believes creates a more productive workforce by meeting the following
objectives:

  .  acting as an inducement for long-term employment with NXT, thereby lending
     stability to our employee base and preserving the confidentiality of our
     proprietary information and systems; and

  .  encouraging longer-term productivity by our employees as they see their
     efforts translate into greater share value.

Our practice in determining compensation for executive officers is for our
management and compensation committee to consult, and then for our compensation
committee to make a recommendation to the board of directors for approval.  With
respect to employees other than executive officers, compensation is ordinarily
determined based upon the recommendation of management subject, where
appropriate, to consultation with our compensation committee and/or board of
directors.

                   Compensation for Chief Executive Officer

Mr. George Liszicasz, our Chief Executive Officer, is entitled to the following
compensation under his five-year employment agreement with NXT entered into on
April 1, 1997:

  .  a current annual base salary of Cdn. $252,000 (U.S. $170,201), subject to
     additional annual increases as determined by our board of directors, but at
     least 5% on each anniversary date of the agreement; and

  .  an annual bonus equal to 5% of NXT's "net income after taxes" in the event
     NXT earns more than $5 million in net income after taxes in any fiscal
     year; and

  .  an annual performance bonus, as determined in the sole discretion of our
     board of directors.

This compensation arrangement, which was fixed during the early development
stage of our company, was predicated on Mr. Liszicasz's unique and critical role
in starting and developing NXT.  Specifically, Mr. Liszicasz founded and
assisted in capitalizing NXT, and is also the inventor of our SFD technology as
well as the developer of the methodologies used to interpret SFD data.  The
services of Mr. Liszicasz was critical to NXT's development during our
development stage, and the loss of his service during that stage would have been
critical for NXT at that time.

The annual base salary payable to Mr. Liszicasz at the time he entered into his
employment agreement ($84,000) was considerably lower than the amount our board
of directors believed at that time that he should receive based upon his
critical role in the development of our company, technology and business.  This
amount was primarily fixed based upon NXT's financial condition at such time, as
well as Mr. Liszicasz's desire that a significant portion of their compensation
be tied to our future financial performance.  For that reason Mr. Liszicasz
agreed to accept a significantly lower monthly base salary in combination with
an annual bonus equal to 5% of our net income after taxes should we earn more
than $5 million in net income after taxes in any fiscal year, which our board of
directors at that time believed to be reasonable and appropriate based upon the
considerations

                                      -28-


noted above. Although Mr. Liszicasz's annual base salary has since been
increased to Cdn. $252,000 (U.S. $170,201), we still believe this amount to be
considerably lower than the amount Mr. Liszicasz should receive based upon his
current role in the development of our company, technology and business, and
believe the net income override remains a reasonable element of his compensation
package.

                  Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code

The compensation committee has not formulated a policy in qualifying
compensation paid to executive officers for deductibility under Section 162(m)
of the Internal Revenue Code, and does not foresee the necessity of doing so in
for at least the upcoming year.  Should limitations on the deductibility of
compensation become a material issue, the compensation committee will, at such
time, determine whether such a policy should be implemented, either in general
or with respect to specific executives.

          Transactions With Our Management And Principal Shareholders

On May 15,1999, NXT sold 190,066 and 66,667 unregistered shares of our common
stock to Mr. Dennis R. Hunter and SFD Investment II, LLC, respectively, for
gross proceeds of $2,850,990 and $1,000,005, respectively.  These sales were
effectuated as part of a $6,000,000 private placement of 400,000 unregistered
shares of our common stock at a price of $15 per share.  This offering price
represented a $3 discount from the public trading price of our common stock at
the time of the offering, which a disinterested majority of our board of
directors deemed fair to NXT based upon the restricted nature and overall amount
of the securities sold.  Mr. Hunter is one of our directors, while SFD
Investment II, LLC, is an affiliate, through Stephens Group, Inc., of SFD
Investment LLC, which holds all our outstanding shares of series `A' preferred
stock.  Mr. K. Rick Turner, one of our directors, holds a 1.13% membership
interest in SFD Investment II, LLC.

On May 1, 1999, NXT entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Topolinsky
and Ehrets and, in connection with these transactions, granted 500,000 options
to purchase our common stock to each of Messrs. Topolinsky and Ehrets.  Also on
May 1, 1999, NXT entered into a consulting agreement with Mr. R. Dirk Stinson,
who is a director, director-nominee and principal shareholder of our company, in
connection with his relinquishment of his position as President in conjunction
with Mr. Topolinsky's appointment to that position.  For a description of these
transactions see that section of this proxy statement captioned "Employment
Agreements With Executive Officers."

Mr. Lorne W. Carson, a current director and a director-nominee, is a partner of
Bennett Jones, a law firm located in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, which rendered
legal services to NXT during fiscal 1999 in the amount of Cdn. $50,896 (U.S.
$34,257).

On February 9, 2000, we loaned the sum of Cdn $250,000 (U.S. $173,491) to Mr.
George Liszicasz, who is our Chief Executive Officer and who is also a director,
director-nominee and principal shareholder of our company.  This principal
amount of this loan, which was extended pursuant to an unsecured promissory note
providing for interest at the rate of 5 1/2% per annum, was repaid in full on
May 31, 2000.

                            Stock Performance Graph

Set forth below is a line graph which compares the percentage change in the
cumulative total shareholder return of our common stock against the cumulative
total shareholder return of the following indexes selected by NXT:

  .  The Standard & Poors SmallCap 600 Index, which covers a broad cross-section
     of public companies with relatively smaller market capitalizations listed
     on the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Market;

  .  The Standard & Poors SmallCap Oil & Gas Exploration And Producers Index,
     which is comprised of public companies on the Standard & Poors SmallCap 600
     Index who are principally engaged in oil & gas exploration and production.
     These companies, whom we refer to as our "exploration" peer group, are
     comprised of Barrett Resources Corporation, Cabot Oil & Gas Corporation,
     Cross Timbers Oil Company, Louis Dreyfus Natural Gas Corp., Newfield
     Exploration Company, Plains Resources Inc., Pogo Producing Company,
     Remington Oil & Gas Corporation; St. Mary Land & Exploration Company, Stone
     Energy Corporation and Vintage Petroleum, Inc.

  .  An industry peer group index comprised of public companies selected by NXT
     who are principally engaged in the seismic data service business and who
     are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange or
     Nasdaq Market. These companies, whom we refer to as our "seismic" peer
     group, are comprised of Petroleum Geo-Services A.S.A., Seitel, Inc.,
     Veritas DGC Inc., Compagnie Generale de Geophysique, S.A., Dawson
     Geophysical Company, Eagle Geophysical, Inc., 3DX Technologies Inc. and
     Venture Seismic Ltd.

The graph assumes an initial investment of $100 in our common stock and each of
the indexes on January 24, 1996, the effective date of commencement of trading
following the reverse acquisition by which NXT acquired our current business,
and further assumes reinvestment of any dividends.  You should note the
comparative indexes are comprised of companies with established operating
histories and, in most cases, significantly larger resources and market
capitalizations than NXT.

comparisons shall not be deemed incorporated by reference by any general
statement incorporating by reference this proxy statement into any filing under

are also required under the regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

                                      -31-


To our knowledge, based solely on our review of the copies of the Section 16(a)
reports furnished to us and written representations to us that no other reports
were required, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our
directors, executive officers, and holders of more than 10% of any class of our
registered securities were timely complied except that Messrs. Topolinsky and
Ehrets did not timely file Form 3s relating to their initial holdings in NXT
upon becoming executive officers and, in Mr. Topolinsky's case, a director, of
NXT.
