Under the terms of a Subscription Agreement for Common Stock entered into between the Issuer and Holdings on December 5, 2008 (the “Initial Subscription Agreement”), Holdings paid $5,010,000 for 1,670,000 shares of the Issuer’s common stock (the “Initial Acquired Shares”) on December 11, 2008. In connection with the Initial Subscription Agreement, the Issuer and Holdings entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement dated December 5, 2008 (the “Strategic Alliance Agreement”), pursuant to which Holdings was granted an option, effective at the closing of the purchase of the Initial Acquired Shares, to purchase an additional 4,330,000 shares of the Issuer’s common stock for a purchase price of $12,990,000 (the “Option Shares”). No additional consideration was paid by Holdings for such option. On February 25, 2009, Holdings exercised its option to purchase the Option Shares. As a result of such exercise, the Issuer and Holdings entered into a Subscription Agreement for Common Stock on February 25, 2009 (the “Second Subscription Agreement”) pursuant to which Holdings paid $12,990,000 for the Option Shares. The Initial Acquired Shares and the Option Shares are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Acquired Shares.”

The purpose of purchasing the Acquired Shares was and is for investment as described in the Strategic Alliance Agreement. The Acquired Shares are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The Strategic Alliance Agreement allows Holdings to acquire additional common stock of the Issuer other than by direct acquisition from the Issuer. Holdings may make market purchases of the Issuer’s common stock, defined as purchases in the over-the-counter market or on any stock exchange on which the stock is then quoted or listed. Holdings may also make private purchases of the Issuer’s common stock other than in the over-the-counter market or on any stock exchange. However, under the Strategic Alliance Agreement, for a period of two (2) years following closing of the purchase of the Initial Acquired Shares, Holdings may not own more than forty percent (40%) of the Issuer’s outstanding common stock on an undiluted basis following any market purchase or private purchase. After a period of two years, Holdings is not limited in the amount of stock it can purchase.

As a result of Holdings’ acquisition of the Option Shares, the Strategic Alliance Agreement provides Holdings a first right of refusal to participate in any future equity financing (a “Future Financing”) solicited by the Issuer at any time prior to commencement of commercial production, as defined in the Strategic Alliance Agreement. The purchase price for each share in any such Future Financing shall be equal to eighty percent (80%) of the average closing price of the Issuer’s common stock during the thirty (30) calendar days preceding the date on which Holdings elects to participate in such Future Financing.

If at any time following closing of the purchase of the Initial Acquired Shares, the Issuer proposes to sell equity securities in certain transactions, the Strategic Alliance Agreement also provides Holdings with preemptive rights to participate in such financing (“Preemptive Rights”). Such Preemptive Rights allow Holdings to purchase an amount of additional common stock equal at any time to its pro-rata interest in the Issuer, as defined in the Strategic Alliance Agreement, subject to certain excluded issuances by the Issuer.

The Strategic Alliance Agreement also provide Holdings with rights to representation on the Issuer’s board of directors. As a result of its acquisition of the Option Shares, Holdings shall be entitled to nominate one (1) individual to the Issuer’s board of directors. Thereafter, so long as Holdings owns at least 14.5% of the Issuer’s outstanding common stock, the Issuer’s board of directors shall nominate the Holdings nominee to the slate of directors at each annual meeting following designation of such nominee. If Holdings thereafter acquires additional shares of the Issuer’s common stock, such that its ownership interest equals forty percent (40%) or more, Holdings shall be entitled to appoint an additional individual to the Issuer’s board of directors.

Depending on market and other considerations and subject to its obligations under the above-described agreements and under applicable law, Holdings may purchase additional shares of the Issuer’s common stock or dispose of some or all of the shares held by it. Except as set forth above, Hochschild has no plans or proposals which would result in any of the actions enumerated in clauses (a)-(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended.

The percentage interest beneficially owned by Hochschild presented below is based on 36,505,982 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 23, 2009, as represented by the Issuer under the Second Subscription Agreement. Holdings is the direct owner of 6,000,000 shares of the Issuer’s common stock, representing 14.7% of the Issuer’s outstanding common stock (after giving effect to the issuance of the Option Shares). As a result, Hochschild may be deemed to beneficially own the Acquired Shares, representing 14.7% of the shares of the Issuer’s common stock. Except to the extent that the beneficial ownership of the shares of the Issuer’s common stock covered by this Statement may be attributed to the Chairman by virtue of his control of Pelham, none of Hochschild’s directors, executive officers and controlling persons identified in Item 2 above beneficially owns any shares of the Issuer’s common stock.

Hochschild has the sole voting and dispositive power over the shares of common stock deemed to be beneficially owned by it under the first paragraph of Item 5 above. Other than as set forth in this Statement, there have been no transactions by Hochschild, Holdings, the Directors, the Executive Officers, Pelham or the Chairman in the class of securities reported on in this Statement during the past sixty days.

As described above in this Statement, Holdings and the Issuer are parties to the Initial Subscription Agreement, the Second Subscription Agreement and the Strategic Alliance Agreement. In addition to the terms of the Strategic Alliance Agreement described above under Item 4, the Strategic Alliance Agreement contains a number of additional provisions described below in this Item 6:

(a) As a result of its acquisition of the Option Shares: (i) Holdings shall have a first right of refusal to participate in any joint venture proposed by the Issuer and involving any properties currently owned or thereafter acquired (a “Right of First Refusal”); and (ii) for a period of two (2) years after its acquisition of the Option Shares, Holdings has agreed to a “standstill,” whereby it has agreed that it will not without the prior written consent of the Issuer assist or encourage other entities to acquire specified interests in the Issuer or take other actions that could result in the acquisition of those interests in the Issuer, subject to certain conditions;

(b) If the Issuer breaches any representation, warranty or covenant contained in the Strategic Alliance Agreement, Holdings is entitled to demand registration rights, pursuant to which the Issuer has agreed, subject to certain conditions, to file a registration statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission to register all of the shares of the Issuer’s common stock held by Holdings, including the Acquired Shares; and

(c) If Holdings shall hold an ownership interest in the Issuer of less than 14.5% or if it sells or otherwise disposes of 20% or more of its then-existing ownership interest, Holdings’ rights in respect of a Future Financing, Preemptive Rights, board representation and the Right of First Refusal would be forfeited.

Hochschild hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Purchased Shares have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), but will be issued pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. As a result, the certificate representing the Purchased Shares shall bear a restrictive legend and transfer of the Purchased Shares shall be restricted as hereinafter set forth.

Closing of the sale of the Purchased Shares and payment of the Purchase Price shall be completed at the offices of the Company in Denver, Colorado at 10:00 a.m. (Denver time) (the “Closing Time”) on February 27, 2009 or such other place, date or time as the Company and Hochschild may agree (the “Closing Date”).
