Item 8.01  Other Events.

On December 21, 2012, Meriwether was served with a civil complaint filed by Roger P. Lund, an individual and resident of Salt Lake County, Utah, as the plaintiff, in the Third Judicial District Court of Salt Lake County, State of Utah, Civil No. 120908658, naming as the defendants, the Company; Flood; Meriwether; the Meriwether Parties (as relief defendants who may have received any funds paid to Meriwether as a result of the plaintiff’s alleged services); Oak Ridge Nevada; and David W. Floor (“Floor’), along with “Does 1-5,” the latter being persons whose identities are said to be unknown to the plaintiff, but who may be liable under the claims alleged by the plaintiff and who may be named in the action by the plaintiff at a later date.  The complaint has 10 causes of action, principally claiming that the plaintiff was engaged by the Company and Meriwether as a consultant; that the plaintiff performed all services required of him under such engagement, which services resulted in the acquisition of Carbon Strategic, among other benefits to the Company and Meriwether and/or that all of the defendants prevented him from completing his obligations under his consulting agreement; and that he was entitled to receive $200,000 and 3,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company by reason of his services and the acquisition of Carbon Strategic.  In one of his causes of action, the plaintiff has claimed that Floor, Meriwether and Flood conspired in an abuse of process by allegedly having Floor bring a separate action against the plaintiff to attach the plaintiff’s rights to his claims against the defendants, thereby depriving him of the value of his services; and in another of his causes of action, he has claimed that the Company, Oak Ridge Nevada, Meriwether and Flood were unjustly enriched by his services.  The plaintiff seeks judgment for $750,000 or the amount of damages proven at trial, together with interest, punitive damages, costs and reasonable attorney’s fees and other appropriate relief. The Company, Flood and Meriwether deny that the plaintiff is entitled to any amount from each or any of them by reason of his alleged services or alleged consulting or otherwise; and the Meriwether Parties deny that to the extent any funds paid to Meriwether by reason of the acquisition of Carbon Strategic were paid to any of them, that the plaintiff has no legal basis upon which to claim an interest in any such funds.  

2

The plaintiff also has claimed in one of his causes of action that Meriwether violated certain provisions of the Utah Uniform Securities Act in Meriwether’s alleged sale to the plaintiff of 140,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for $15,000, and that the plaintiff is entitled to judgment against Meriwether for treble damages or three times the $15,000 purchase price of the shares.  Meriwether denies these allegations in each and every respect.

The Company and the defendants directly associated with it or its directors and executive officers (Floor is excluded from this description) will vigorously defend this legal action and anticipate that counterclaims will be brought against the plaintiff on behalf of these defendants.
