CHANGES IN CONTROL

Except for the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization between the Company and Pannonian Energy, Inc. (the
"Reorganization Agreement"), no arrangements are known to the Company, including
any pledge by any person of securities of the Company, the operation of which
may, at a subsequent date, result in a change in control of the Company.

AMENDMENT TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

The Company has determined to amend its Articles of Incorporation by changing
the name of the Company to "Gasco Energy, Inc."

The Company is proposing to acquire Pannonian Energy, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Pannonian"). The Reorganization Agreement contemplates the
issuance of 14,000,000 shares of common stock in exchange for all of the issued
and outstanding common stock of Pannonian. Accordingly, the former Pannonian
shareholders as a group will own a majority of the outstanding shares of the
Company.

In conjunction with the transactions contemplated by the Reorganization
Agreement, the current directors and officers of the Company have resigned with
the exception of J. Timothy Bowes, who will continue as a director. Mr. Bowes
has elected successors designated by Pannonian.

The Company's Board of Directors approved the Reorganization Agreement but
approval by the Company's shareholders is not required prior to closing
thereunder.

Following closing under the Reorganization Agreement, all of the Company's
business activities are expected to be conducted through various wholly owned
subsidiaries. Accordingly, the new name of "Gasco Energy, Inc." will better
reflect the Company's new business operations.
