Currently, there are 7 verified drilling targets for Phase 1 as well as 12 drilling areas of interest targeted on the leasehold. Resource potential on the total 965,000 acre leasehold of up to 500 million plus barrels of oil  ("OOIP") Oil-Initially-In-Place, as well as barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) from multiple conventional reservoir targets and total area has been estimated. The median EUR recovery projected of oil per lateral in the Forillon/Indian Cove formation on areas the company's farmout leasehold has been estimated at 942,000 bbls.  The Forillon/Indian Cove is a naturally fractured limestone conventional formation of lower Devonian age.
