Section 8 - Other Events
Item 8.01 Other Events.

On December 14, 2010, we acquired from Synergy Resources LLC, a private company, all of Synergy’s working interests and certain other contractual rights of Synergy, including farm-in rights and rights in and to certain oil and gas leases, as well as all intellectual property and records held by Synergy, in each case relating to the projects and prospects identified as the “Glacier Project”, the “Elm Coulee Project”, the “Saskatchewan Prospects” and the “Benrude Prospect”.  The Glacier Project consists of three prospective areas in the emerging Alberta Bakken play located in Glacier and Toole Counties, Montana, which have been identified as the “Bakken Basin Facies”, “Bakken Northern Dome Facies” and the “Southern Dome Facies”.  We are in negotiations to acquire working interests and other rights in approximately 60,000 net acres in these areas.  The Elm Coulee Project consists of a potential working interest in a Bakken oil-producing field located in Richland County, Montana.  The Saskatchewan Prospects consist of two Bakken exploration prospects and one Three Forks exploration prospect, all located in the Williston Basin in Southeast Saskatchewan, Canada. The Benrude Prospect consists of approximately 760 acres in Roosevelt County, Montana, on which we currently expect to drill a development well that we believe to be low-risk.
