Explanation of Responses: |
1. On October 18, 2010, the common stock of the Issuer underwent a one-for-twelve reverse split, resulting in Denly Utah Coal, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (the "Company") owning of 8,290,171 shares of common stock of the Issuer and having the right to purchase up to 500,000 shares of common stock of the Issuer under warrants. |
2. As of October 21, 2010, the Company loaned $200,000 to the Issuer, as a result of which the Issuer executed a promissory note for the benefit of the Company (the "October 21, 2010 Note"). Under the terms of the October 21, 2010 Note, the Issuer has an obligation to issue 166,667 shares of common stock to the Company. |
3. As of October 9, 2009, the Company made a loan to the Issuer, as a result of which the Issuer executed a promissory note for the benefit of the Company (the "October 9, 2009 Note"). As part of the consideration for the October 9, 2009 Note, under the terms of Amendment No. 4 to Loan Agreement executed by the Issuer in favor of the Company and related parties ("Amendment to Loan Agreement"), the Issuer agreed to provide the Company with a first priority mortgage lien on certain property before May 31, 2010. Also under the terms of the Amendment to Loan Agreement, as consideration for the October 9, 2009 Note, the Issuer issued a warrant to the Company (the "Second Warrant") under which the Company may purchase up to 916,666 shares of common stock of the Issuer at a purchase price of $0.12 between July 1, 2010 and October 9, 2019 if the Issuer does not grant the first priority mortgage lien on the subject property. |
4. The Second Warrant vests in eleven monthly installments of 83,333 shares beginning on July 1, 2010 and ending on May 1, 2011 as long as the Issuer does not grant the first priority mortgage lien on the property as described above. The first priority mortgage lien was not granted as of November 1, 2010, resulting in the vesting of the Second Warrant as to 83,333 shares. |
