Material Changes and Legal Proceedings
On September 20, 2002, Millennium Seismic, Inc. filed a petition in the district courts of Harris County, Texas, against the Registrant. The lawsuit concerns agreements entered into on July 19, 2002, including:
- An Exchange Agreement where Millennium acquired 1,000,000 shares of Registrant common stock in exchange for a License to use proprietary seismic data.
- A Stock Purchase Warrant granting Millennium the right to purchase up to 750,000 additional shares at $1.00 per share until July 19, 2004.
- A Registration Rights Agreement.
Allegations: Millennium alleges violations of federal and Texas securities laws, common law fraud, and breach of contract. The plaintiff claims the Registrant failed to disclose a potential transaction with Nettlecombe Oil Company, Inc., and is attempting to assign rights under the License in violation of its terms. Millennium seeks to rescind the Transaction Documents, return the 1,000,000 shares, and recover damages, attorneys' fees, and interest.
Registrant's Position: The Registrant believes the allegations are unsupported by credible evidence and intends to defend itself. The Registrant notes that Millennium has failed to provide the seismic data legally owed under the License. The Registrant plans to file an answer with counterclaims regarding Millennium's failure to fulfill obligations.

The filing explicitly states that there can be no assurance regarding the time required to resolve the lawsuit or the degree of any adverse effect the litigation may have on the Registrant's financial condition and results of operations.
