Our
business model is to partner with or acquire other companies.

We
aim to find energy businesses whose products, managers, technology, or other factors that we like and then acquire or invest in those
businesses. While we are open to investing in a diverse portfolio of entities across the energy sector, there is no certainty that we
will find suitable partners or that we will be able to engage in transactions on advantageous terms with the partners we identify. There
is also no certainty that we will be able to consummate future transactions on favorable terms, or any new transaction at all. To date,
several of our acquisitions/investments have not turned out well for us.

We
may have to work harder to introduce rigor in our transactions.

Many
of the people and entities with whom we engage may not be used to operating in business transactions in a public environment. Therefore,
in order to discharge our fiduciary and disclosure obligations, we may have to work harder to maintain good business practices. Entities
and persons operating in private industry may be unaccustomed to entering into lengthy written agreements or keeping financial records
according to GAAP. Additionally, entities and persons with whom we had engaged may not have paid particular attention to the obligations
including their obligations associated with employee retention tax credit and economic injury disaster loan programs with which they
have agreed in written contracts. We have experienced or may experience differences in this manner with several different entities with
whom we do business, including several entities that failed to comply with common law contractual obligations, which led us into litigation
and other legal remedies.
