GMXR is a resource play rich E&P company with development acreage in two oil shale resources in the Bakken (North Dakota / Montana) targeting the Bakken & Sanish-Three Forks and the DJ Basin (Wyoming) targeting the Niobrara Formation; both plays are 90% oil. Our natural gas resources are located in the East Texas Basin, in the Haynesville/Bossier gas shale and the Cotton Valley Sand Formation, where the majority of our acreage is contiguous and held by production. We believe these oil and natural gas resource plays provide a substantial inventory of operated, high probability, repeatable, organic growth opportunities. The Bakken properties contain nearly 600 undrilled, 9,500' lateral length locations, 43 potential operated 1280-acre units and 172 operated locations, with between 45% and 100% working interest. The Niobrara properties contain 584 undrilled, 4,000' lateral length locations, 94 potential operated 640-acre units and 376 operated locations, with an average working interest of 51%. The Haynesville/Bossier and the Cotton Valley Sand locations include 253 net Haynesville/Bossier horizontal locations, and 108 net Cotton Valley Sand horizontal locations. The Company believes multiple basins and both oil and natural gas resource choices provide us with flexibility to allocate capital to achieve the highest risk adjusted rate of return on our portfolio.
