OTHER EVENTS On January 31, 2001, the Registrant entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "Merger Agreement"), under which the Registrant will acquire Pannonian Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Pannonian"), in a stock-for-stock transaction. A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1. The Merger Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of the merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant with and into Pannonian. Upon consummation of the proposed merger, Pannonian will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant. In the merger, each holder of Pannonian's common stock will have the right to receive approximately 1.74 shares of the Registrant's common stock. Consummation of the merger is subject to a number of customary conditions, including the approval of the merger by the shareholders of Pannonian. Pannonian has delivered written proxies from shareholders of Pannonian holding in excess of a majority of all issued and outstanding shares of Pannonian common stock, which are intended to be voted in favor of the merger. A copy of the press release announcing this transaction is included herein as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference into this Item 5. In connection with the Merger Agreement, the Registrant will change its name to "Gasco Energy, Inc." effective March 5, 2001. BUSINESS OF PANNONIAN ENERGY, INC. ("PANNONIAN") Pannonian is privately owned Delaware corporation headquartered in Denver, Colorado engaged in the location and development of hydrocarbon prospects, primarily in the Rocky Mountain area of Utah and Wyoming. Pannonian has acquired an interest in over 30,000 acres in the Uinta Basin located in Utah known as the Riverbend Project. These lands contain up to 90 shallow development well locations in the Wasatch Formation plus up to an additional 40 Wasatch development locations recently acquired through a joint venture agreement with Phillips Petroleum Company. This joint venture agreement calls for Phillips to drill and complete approximately four to five wells to the deeper Mesaverde Formation. Pannonian will retain 20% of the interests in these wells and in the deeper Mesaverde rights. Pannonian will also retain 20% to 100% interest in up to 200 additional well locations for the Mesaverde Formation and 75% to 100% interest in the approximately 130 locations within the Wasatch development area. 4 The Riverbend Project, which will be the only asset of Pannonian at the time of closing of the merger, is centrally located in the Uinta basin of northeastern Utah. It is Pannonian's intention to commence drilling its Riverbend locations starting in the second quarter, assuming adequate funding can be obtained through the merger and the related Financing Agreement with Wet Coast Management (See Item 5, below). Pannonian hopes to drill 10 wells in Riverbend during the next 12 months thereby potentially proving an additional 40 locations for development drilling in 2002. A Wasatch well takes approximately ten days to drill to 8,000 feet. The major costs are in equipping and completing the well due to large fracture stimulation required. Estimated investment for drilling and completing a Wasatch well is $500,000. These lands were obtained through lease acquisitions and farmin agreements. Should the initial wells required to be drilled by Phillips, pursuant to the joint venture, prove up the Mesaverde Formation, then full field development should commence on 80 acre spacing per well. The joint venture agreement provides for Phillips to commence the first well by March 1, 2001 with the last to be drilled by April 1, 2003. PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS.
