Item 1.01

Section 1 Registrant’s Business and Operations

 

“SLTN” or “the Company” refers to the Registrant Silverton Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation

 

The Company’s Business

 

Overall Business Objectives

 

Silverton Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation, is a publicly traded company (listed as “SLTN” on the OTC Markets Pink Sheet. The Company was founded in 2010. The Company’s founding Director and CEO, Samuel C. Smith (“Smith”), acquired the company in 2023. The Overall Business Objectives of the Company are:

 

(i)Focus on building a large asset portfolio of oil and gas leases on the Osage Nation sovereign area in Oklahoma, along with selected acquisitions of leases adjacent to leases owned by others which are outproducing the purchased leases’ daily production (barrels per day).

 

(ii)The Company does not desire to be an oil and gas operator (“Operator”). This shelters the Company from any liabilities associated with production activities as its own Operator for its own oil and gas leases. There are no plans by the Company to set up a to be an Operator directly for (or through a wholly owned LLC subsidiary for any of the two Acquisition Agreements described below.

 

(iii)Sales proceeds from the Company’s sales of shares of its Series “A” Common Stock and Series “C” Preferred Stock are being utilized by the Company for three general usages: (a) the Company’s operational and overhead expenses (including legal and auditing); (b) continued acquisitions of qualified leases; and, as needed, (c) selected re-working of its acquired oil and gas existing wells to materially increase the bbl/day output (which increases the value of its other wells drawing from the same reservoir/formation as the re-worked well).

 

Asset Acquisition Agreements

 

A.     The AHIC Assets. On May 01, 2024, the Company entered into an “Acquisition Agreement” between the Company as the Buyer, and American Heritage Investment Capital, LP. (“AHIC”), (the “AHIC Acquisition Agreement” [see EX 2.01A]. Under the AHIC Acquisition Agreement, the Company purchased for $52,000,000, a group of American Heritage Investment Capital, L.P’s (‘AHIC”) oil and gas leases in Oklahoma, listed in Exhibit A.1 to the Agreement (the “AHIC Assets”), which have a with a “current value” of $81,000,000, via a Contract for Assignment. The AHIC Assets are held in escrow by AHICs attorney, to be formally transferred to the Company upon $81,000,000 PSA from the Company. The $81,000,000 purchase price is to be paid by an $81,000,000, 20-year, non-interest bearing Promissory Note (Secured by the AHIC Assets), payable in installments towards a lump sum of $81,000,000, payment on May 01, 2044. Section 5A of the Promissory Note provides a credit against the $81,000,000 Promissory Note: “For each $15,000,000 introduced to the company through institutional investors, a payment of $3,000,000 shall be immediately delivered to seller and credited against this note. Upon default, after May 01, 2044, AHIC can foreclose on the collateralized oil and gas leases or convert the $81,000,000 in collateral to “preferred stock,” upon a conversion ratio, based on a fair market value of the preferred stock. The $81,000,000, if divided by 1,072,500 of currently available Class “C” Preferred shares is $0.75/share, which is more than the offering price of Class “C” Preferred shares at $0.40 per share. After a period of five (5) years from the date of conversion of the Company’s $81,000,000 into the Company’s Class “C” Preferred shares, the preferred shares shall automatically convert into shares of common stock of the Borrower company on a one-for-one basis (which is a contractual agreement to convert under the pre-existing five-for-one conversion rights for the Company’s Class “C” Preferred Stock. The converted preferred stock shall have one-for-one voting rights per share, the same as the Company’s Series “A” Common Stock.

B.    The Agrawal Assets. On May 01, 2024, the Company entered into an “Acquisition Agreement” between AHIC and SLTN, as the “Buyer” and Kris Agrawal and Kris K. Agrawal, et al, Exxon Oil & Gas, Inc., Vance-1 Properties, LLC, as the “Seller” (the Agrawal Acquisition Agreement”), with an effective date of April 04, 2024 [see EX 2.01B]. The Company, together with AHIC purchased all of Seller’s “(Kris Agrawal and Kris K. Agrawal, et. al. collectively referred to as “Agrawal”), working interests and overriding royalty interests in a list of oil and gas leases attached as Exh. A1 (the “Agrawal Assets”). At ¶ 2.2(b)(1), the Agrawal Assets shall be held in escrow by Agrawal’s Escrow Agent and will not be recorded/retitled to Buyers until “one day after receipt of the full purchase price. As such, this transaction is a contract (a “chose in action”) for lease assignments and is not currently vesting title to the assets in Buyers.

 

The agreed purchase price of the Assets is $3,500,000.00, the payment of which by a “convertible note,” which is to be readily convertible into the Company’s Class “A” Common Stock, at its “market value” per share “at the moment of execution,” within 13 months of the date of the agreement. The agreement, itself, is considered to be a “Promissory Note and Mortgage of $3,500,000 upon the purchased leaseholds. The Buyer must pay $150,000.00 to the Seller within the first six months of the Agreement to improve the purchased leaseholds. The Agreement can be terminated by Buyer or Seller if they cannot agree upon the obligations under the acquisition. However, all parties to the Agrawal Acquisition Agreement have expressed a common goal of agreeing upon their obligations under the acquisition.

 

Value-Added Aspects of the Acquired Assets

 

Osage County Oil and Gas properties are attractive because of the high-quality oil and gas, the extensive reserves, and long production history of Oklahoma Oil Fields. In addition, the Osage County minerals are owned by the Osage Nation Head Rights which is managed by the US. Department of Interior’s Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). BIA oversight means that all lease contracts are issued and managed by the BIA with the guaranty of clean title, clean environmental standards, oversite and in good standing for all compliance orders and code.

 

The Company has now entered into three oil and gas lease acquisition agreements to provide a substantial increase in the Company’s lease holdings. With this foothold, the Company’s plan is to build on this success by evaluating and acquiring neighboring oil and gas lease operations. We are confident in our ability to identify and fund acquisition prospects in Oklahoma to continually build our base of production assets and revenues.

 

Our plan is to acquire assets in close proximity to our current operations with an eye on the largest private producers in the area extracting upward of 800 BOPD. To fund the acquisitions, we intend to exploit three sources of capital; revenue, offered equity, bank debt and in cases of larger acquisitions, a combination of the three. We believe that by acquiring producing properties, we can deliver strong value to our shareholders.

 

Silverton Energy, Inc. as a “Complete” Oil and Gas Company

 

Through Managements extensive industry experience, certain fundamental elements were recognized as a necessary baseline to function as a “complete” Oil & Gas Company. Those certain elements are:

 

1.)Exploration & Production – The company must own the rights to the hydrocarbons in the ground and have operating permissions to extract those commodities.
2.)Assets – The company must sufficiently equip the operation to ensure independent ability to drill, produce and repair without reliance on third party service companies.
3.)Revenue – As a public company, minimizing Royalty participants is key to retaining the value exploited through operations, and reflecting that capture in the price p/share

 

The following are our guiding principles:

Focus on core production with high reserve value;
Seek Upside in Acquisitions for cost advantaged production;
Purchase assets at attractive multiples;
Control of our budgets and production timelines;
Seek to consistently recapitalize the company through the recognition of reserves acquired; and
Maintain flexibility and creativity in deal structures to maximize shareholder value.

Risk Factors

 

The following is a summary of some of the risks related to an investment in the Company’s securities. Prospective Investors are asked to carefully consider the following factors relating to risks associated with an investment in the Company’s securities, which should be discussed in greater detail with the Investors’ personal tax counsel, legal advisor, and/or accountant. The order in which the following risks are presented is not intended to represent the magnitude of the risks described. Additionally, the enumeration of these risks does not preclude other risks associated with an investment in the Company’s securities.

 

Limited Operating History. We acquired our first oil and gas property in March of 2023. As a result, our company has a limited history. However, we are led by a team of professionals with decades of experience in the oil and gas industry and a proven track record of evaluating, acquiring, and maximizing values in existing producing wells and fields.

 

Reliance Upon Management. Our success is largely dependent upon the efforts of our executive officers. Although our management has extensive experience in the industry, if any member of our management ceases to be associated with Silverton, our business could suffer.

 

Duties and Responsibility of our Directors and Executive Officers. Our Directors and management are accountable to the shareholders and have a duty to exercise good faith and to deal fairly with Silverton in handling their affairs. Our corporate organizational documents contain provisions which are intended to limit the liability of our management for any act or omission within the scope of their authority if it is determined in good faith that such course of conduct was (a) undertaken in good faith and (b) did not constitute gross negligence or misconduct.

 

Restriction on Trading. Investors should be fully aware of the long-term nature of their investment in the Company’s Securities. Although a public trading market does not yet exist for our common stock, the shares of our Class “A,” “B” and “C” Preferred Stock are NOT and WILL NOT be registered, but rather, only the shares of Class “C” Preferred Stock are eligible to convert to common shares when an exemption becomes available. Absent a registration statement, the common shares are eligible for restriction removal and trading through an exemption under Rule 144 or Rule 4(a)1.5. However, this could take as long as 2 years if the company is unsuccessful in executing its plan to become a fully reporting company. Each Investor will be required to represent that such Investor is purchasing the Shares for such Investor’s own account for investment purposes and not with a view to resale or distribute The Shares will not be registered under the Securities Act or under state securities law but will instead be issued pursuant to specific exemptions, the availability of which is based in part upon the investment intent of each Investor.

 

Restrictions on Transfer. The Shares are not readily transferable, and no transfer of Shares may be made unless the transferor delivers, if requested, an opinion of counsel to us, satisfactory to our management, that the transfer does not violate federal or state securities laws. To obtain such an opinion would generally require the Shares be registered under such laws or that an exemption from registration exists. There can be no assurance that an exemption will be available. If, as a result of some change in circumstances arising from an event not now contemplated, an investor wishes to transfer his or her Interests, that investor will in all likelihood find no market in the near future.

 

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock. Our Common Stock is currently eligible for quotation on the OTC-Pink Market, but few quotations have been made and limited trading has occurred in our Common Stock. Due to the lack of an active trading market for our securities, investors may have difficulty selling any shares they purchase, which could result in the loss of their investment. Our Common Stock is eligible for quotation on the Pink Market operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. The Pink Market is a regulated quotation service that displays real-time quotes, last sale prices and volume information in over-the-counter securities. The Pink Market is not an issuer listing service, market or exchange. The requirements for quotation on the Pink Market are considerably lower and less regulated than those of an exchange. Because of this, it is possible that fewer brokers or dealers will be interested in making a market in our Common Stock because the market for such securities is more limited, the stocks are more volatile, and the risk to investors is greater, which may impact the liquidity of our Common Stock. Even if an active market begins to develop in our Common Stock, the quotation of our Common Stock on the Pink Market may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential stockholders to trade Common Stock, could depress the trading price of our Common Stock and could have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future. If an active market is never developed for our Common Stock, it will be difficult or impossible for any purchasers to sell any Common Stock they purchase.

Acquisition of Additional Properties. Although our management has significant experience in identifying and acquiring oil and gas properties and has already identified properties that would be a good acquisition for us, there can be no assurance we will be successful in our efforts to acquire additional properties at values that make economic sense. The primary purpose of the Company’s securities offerings is to raise funds to purchase additional producing oil and gas properties.

 

Importance of Future Prices and Demand for Oil and Gas and Delays in Marketing Production. There can be no assurance that a market for any oil or gas produced from our properties will exist or that the prices obtainable will be adequate to cover the cost of operating such properties. Our revenues are highly dependent upon future prices of and demand for oil and gas. The energy market makes it particularly difficult to estimate accurately future oil and gas prices. Various factors beyond our control will continue to affect oil and gas prices. Such factors include, among other things, the domestic and foreign supply of oil and gas and the price of foreign imports, war or civil unrest, terrorism, the levels of consumer demand and consumer confidence, recession, decline in economic activity, changes in weather, the price and availability of alternative fuels, the rate of inflation, the availability of pipeline capacity and changes in existing and proposed state and federal regulations.

 

Speculative Nature of Oil and Gas Activities. Oil and gas development involves a high risk of loss. Decisions to acquire properties will be dependent in part on the evaluation of data compiled by petroleum engineers and geologists and obtained through geophysical testing and geological analysis. The results of such studies and tests are sometimes inconclusive or subject to varying interpretations. In any oil or gas activity, economic success depends almost entirely on the accuracy of estimates of oil or gas reserves in the ground, rates of production, demand for oil or gas and the prices of oil or gas. There can be no assurance that we will recover our investment in any properties we own.

 

Lack of Diversification. Although our intent behind any securities offering is to raise funds to acquire interests in other properties, at present our assets are limited. The acquisitions of additional properties will further mitigate risk through diversification.

 

Environmental Hazards and Regulatory Liabilities. There are numerous natural hazards involved in the operation of oil and gas wells, including unexpected or unusual formations, pressures, surface damage, bodily injuries, damage to and loss of equipment, reservoir damage, loss of reserves, and temporary/permanent shut-in costs of wells. Uninsured or under insured liabilities would reduce the funds available to us and may result in the loss of properties. We believe we can avoid the significant financial, environmental and hazards risks associated with operating oil and gas wells by not being an Operator. Even as a non-operator, and potentially responsible party for our properties, it is possible that insurance coverage may be insufficient. In that event, assets could be utilized to pay personal injury and property damage claims and the costs of replacing destroyed equipment rather than for additional development activities.

 

Increases in Development Costs. The oil and gas industry historically has experienced periods of cost increases from time to time which can occur within short periods of time. These price fluctuations are real and will affect the overall final budget of any well in which we own an interest. Increases in the cost of exploration and development could affect our ability to profit within the budget originally established. Increased development activity could lead to shortages of certain equipment and materials needed for properties in which we own an interest which could make timely development of our properties more difficult.

 

Unpredictable Producing Life of Oil and Gas Wells. We cannot predict the life and production of any properties in which we have an interest. The actual life of individual wells could differ from the currently predicted economic life expectancy now anticipated. However, our existing properties and properties we anticipate acquiring are in areas that are anticipated to produce from a formation or formations for multiple years. Nevertheless, sufficient natural gas or oil may not be produced from our properties to provide us with a profit on our investment in such properties.

 

 

 

 

 5 

 

 

Joint Activities with Others. The company intends to acquire properties. However, the company may participate in a joint venture with another operator, acquiring less than 100% of the working interest. Full development of the properties in which we own an interest may be jeopardized in the event of the inability of other working interest owners to pay their respective shares of development costs. These potential non-payments may limit us from recognizing the full value of our interest in our properties.

 

Competition Against Larger Companies. The oil and gas industry is highly competitive. We will be competing against other companies with significantly more resources than we have in the pursuit of good oil and gas properties.

 

Future Offerings. Our present intent is to use either equity or a combination of equity and bank debt to acquire additional properties. If we are unsuccessful in raising additional equity or borrowing funds, our ability to acquire additional properties will be limited.

 

Bank Debt. Consideration has been made, and meetings set up to explore the possibility of utilizing bank debt as part of an acquisition. Introducing leverage to the company could have a negative impact on cashflow and even ability to borrow for future acquisitions in the future.

Default and Conversion to Shares of Class “C” Preferred Stock. Upon default, after May 01, 2044, AHIC can: (i) foreclose on the collateralized oil and gas leases, or (ii) convert the $81,000,000 in collateral to “preferred stock,” upon a conversion ratio, based on a fair market value of the preferred stock.

Voting Rights: The preferred stock shall have one-for-one voting rights per share, the same as the Company’s Series “A” Common Stock.

 

Effect of AHIC Conversion of its Class “C” Preferred Shares to Class “A” Common Shares. The Company has 500,000,000 authorized Class “A” Common Stock, of which 88,600,000 shares have been issued or committed. Even if all 5,000,000 shares of Class “C” Preferred Stock were sold and converted on a 5/1 basis to Class “A” Common Stock, which would result in 20,000,000 shares of Class “A” Common Stock. The remaining 391,140,000 remaining shares of Class “A” Common Stock would be sufficient to absorb a conversion by AHIC.

 

* There are currently available of 1,072,500 shares of Series “C” Preferred Stock in the Company’s corporate treasury, which is assumed, and should be specified as Series “C” Preferred, it is $0.206 per share of Series “C” Preferred Stock, if all $52,000,000 of the debt is converted. The current Reg. D offering is $0.40 per share. The fair market value of the Class “C” Preferred Stock, 20 years from the date of the agreement, is not currently known.
