PART I
ITEMS 1 AND 2. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND PROPERTY
Corporate History
Digital Ecosystems Corp. (Weor the Company) was incorporated on February 21, 2002 under
the laws of the State of Nevada. On February 10, 2006, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement
(the Agreement) with GSL Energy Corporation (GSL) and certain shareholders of GSL for the
purpose of acquiring the majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of GSL, in
exchange for shares of the Companys common stock. On May 12, 2006, the parties to the Agreement
completed the share exchange, and we changed our business to the business of GSL. Our principal
offices are located at 1875 Lawrence Street, Suite 1400, Denver, CO 80202 and the phone number is
303-572-8900.
Business Prior to Share Exchange
Prior to the share exchange with the shareholders of GSL, we were a development stage company
in the business of developing and operating an internet based drinking water information and order
service (the Water Business) at our website www.digitalecosystems.com (the Website). The
Website was focused on providing consumers with current and comprehensive sources of bottled and
bulk water, water information and water treatment options delivered through a website that
aggregates and affiliates with national/regional, state-provincial, and large municipal bottled
water companies and equipment manufacturers.
Business Subsequent to Share Exchange
Upon the completion of the share exchange in the Agreement, we changed our business to the
business of GSL, namely an independent oil and gas exploration and production company, engaged in
the exploration, development and acquisition of crude oil and natural gas reserves and production
in the western United States and in the Northern Territory of Australia. GSLs primary assets
consist of five separate properties, described as (i) an undivided 50% working interest in certain
leases and related properties in each of Colorado (consisting of two separate properties), Montana, and Utah; and (ii) the contractual rights under
which the Company will acquire from MAB Resources LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (MAB
Resources), an undivided 50% working interest in four exploration licenses covering seven million
net mineral acres in the Northern Territory of Australia. These assets are referred to herein
collectively as the Properties. MAB Resources is controlled by Marc A. Bruner, who was the
largest shareholder of GSL, and is currently the largest shareholder of the Company. The
Properties will be managed and operated in three groups: Heavy Oil, Piceance Basin, and Australia.
Competition
We operate in the highly competitive oil and gas areas of acquisition and exploration, areas
in which other competing companies have substantially larger financial resources, operations,
staffs and facilities. Such companies may be able to pay more for prospective oil and
gas properties or prospects and to evaluate, bid for and purchase a greater number of properties
and prospects than our financial or human resources permit.
1
Employees
At
July 12, 2006, we had 9 full time employees and 11 total employees.
Environmental Matters
Operations on properties in which we have an interest are subject to extensive federal, state
and local environmental laws that regulate the discharge or disposal of materials or substances
into the environment and otherwise are intended to protect the environment. Numerous governmental
agencies issue rules and regulations to implement and enforce such laws, which are often difficult
and costly to comply with and which carry substantial administrative, civil and criminal penalties
and in some cases injunctive relief for failure to comply.
Some laws, rules and regulations relating to the protection of the environment may, in certain
circumstances, impose strict liability for environmental contamination. These laws render a
person or company liable for environmental and natural resource damages, cleanup costs and, in the
case of oil spills in certain states, consequential damages without regard to negligence or fault.
Other laws, rules and regulations may require the rate of oil and gas production to be below the
economically optimal rate or may even prohibit exploration or production activities in
environmentally sensitive areas. In addition, state laws often require some form of remedial
action, such as closure of inactive pits and plugging of abandoned wells, to prevent pollution from
former or suspended operations.
Legislation has been proposed in the past and continues to be evaluated in Congress from time
to time that would reclassify certain oil and gas exploration and production wastes as hazardous
wastes. This reclassification would make these wastes subject to much more stringent storage,
treatment, disposal and clean-up requirements, which could have a significant adverse impact on
operating costs. Initiatives to further regulate the disposal of oil and gas wastes are also
proposed in certain states from time to time and may include initiatives at the county, municipal
and local government levels. These various initiatives could have a similar adverse impact on
operating costs.
The regulatory burden of environmental laws and regulations increases our cost and risk of
doing business and consequently affects our profitability. The federal Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act, or CERCLA, also known as the Superfund law, imposes
liability, without regard to fault, on certain classes of persons with respect to the release of a
hazardous substance into the environment. These persons include the current or prior owner or
operator of the disposal site or sites where the release occurred and companies that transported,
disposed or arranged for the transport or disposal of the hazardous substances found at the site.
Persons who are or were responsible for releases of hazardous
substances under CERCLA may be subject to joint and several liability for the costs of cleaning up
the hazardous substances that have been released into the environment and for damages to natural
resources, and it is not uncommon for the federal or state government to pursue such claims.
It is also not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file claims for
personal injury or property or natural resource damages allegedly caused by the hazardous
substances released into the environment. Under CERCLA, certain oil and gas materials and products
are, by definition, excluded from the term hazardous substances. At least two federal
2
courts
have held that certain wastes associated with the production of crude oil may be classified as
hazardous substances under CERCLA. Similarly, under the federal Resource, Conservation and Recovery
Act, or RCRA, which governs the generation, treatment, storage and disposal of solid wastes and
hazardous wastes, certain oil and gas materials and wastes are exempt from the definition of
hazardous wastes. This exemption continues to be subject to judicial interpretation and
increasingly stringent state interpretation. During the normal course of operations on properties
in which we have an interest, exempt and non-exempt wastes, including hazardous wastes, that are
subject to RCRA and comparable state statutes and implementing regulations are generated or have
been generated in the past. The federal Environmental Protection Agency and various state agencies
continue to promulgate regulations that limit the disposal and permitting options for certain
hazardous and non-hazardous wastes.
We believe that the operator of the properties in which we have an interest is in substantial
compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations relating to the control of air emissions at
all facilities on those properties. Although we maintain insurance against some, but not all, of
the risks described above, including insuring the costs of clean-up operations, public liability
and physical damage, there is no assurance that our insurance will be adequate to cover all such
costs, that the insurance will continue to be available in the future or that the insurance will be
available at premium levels that justify our purchase. The occurrence of a significant event not
fully insured or indemnified against could have a material adverse effect on our financial
condition and operations. Compliance with environmental requirements, including financial assurance
requirements and the costs associated with the cleanup of any spill, could have a material adverse
effect on our capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position. We do believe, however, that
our operators are in substantial compliance with current applicable environmental laws and
regulations. Nevertheless, changes in environmental laws have the potential to adversely affect
operations. At this time, we have no plans to make any material capital expenditures for
environmental control facilities.
Heavy Oil Properties
Great Salt Lake Utah.
Pursuant to an Exploration Agreement effective as of June 1, 2005 (the Utah Agreement)
between MAB Resources and GSL, MAB Resources has assigned to GSL an undivided 50% leasehold and
working interest and related real and personal property in oil and
gas leases currently owned or under contract covering 173,851 net mineral acres in the
northern area of the Great Salt Lake in Utah (the Utah Leases). The Utah Leases allow for the
exploration, development and production of hydrocarbons in the areas under the Utah Leases.
In exchange for this undivided 50% leasehold interest, GSL will pay for the first $50,000,000
in costs paid or incurred in connection with or in respect to the acquisition, development and
operations related to the Utah Leases, including for wells and associated or related facilities.
The effect of GSLs obligation to pay for the first $50,000,000 of costs (Project Costs) is that
MAB Resources owns a carried interest equivalent to $25,000,000. A portion of this carried
interest is paid in the form of advances by GSL to MAB Resources in the amount of $200,000 each
month as a project development costs. The advances commenced June 1, 2005. The total amount of
such advances are deducted from GSLs $25,000,000 carried interest obligation. After $50,000,000
in costs have been paid or incurred by GSL, GSL and MAB Resources will each pay for their
respective 50% proportionate share all further costs paid or incurred in connection with
3
or in respect to the development and operation of the Utah Leases. In addition, MAB
Resources will retain a three percent overriding royalty interest of the gross proceeds of all
sales of hydrocarbons on the Utah Leases or on lands pooled or unitized therewith.
Pursuant to the terms of the Utah Leases, one well must be drilled prior to the expiration
date of the primary term under each Utah Lease. The primary terms of two of the Utah Leases end in
June 2008, and the primary term of the third Utah Lease ends in May 2009. MAB Resources and GSL
plan to drill at least one test well on each of the Utah Leases prior to the end of each respective
primary term. Subsequent drilling and development, as well as any applications to extend the term
of one or more of the Utah Leases, will be determined as MAB Resources and GSL evaluate the results
of the first test well and as they further analyze the results of the seismic surveys.
Montana Heavy Oil.
MAB Resources has entered into an agreement to obtain a 100% working interest in up to 15,000
net mineral acres in Carbon, Stillwater, and Yellowstone Counties in Montana (the Montana
Agreement). MAB Resources is required to pay an independent third party a finders fee of
$2,000,000, plus an amount equal to $1.00 per barrel sold of liquid hydrocarbons. MAB will assign
an undivided 50% of the acquired interests to GSL, subject to an agreement similar to the terms of
the Utah Agreement and the Colorado Agreement. GSL is obligated to pay MAB Resources monthly
project development costs of $20,000 per month, commencing April 1, 2006, and the first $100
million of project costs. The total amount of such advances are deducted from GSLs carried
interest obligation.
Piceance Basin, Colorado Properties
Buckskin Mesa.
MAB Resources has acquired a 100% working interest, with a net revenue interest of 80%, in
certain oil and gas leases covering at least 16,000 net mineral acres located in the Piceance Basin
in Colorado (the Colorado Leases). MAB Resources has paid
$8,313,553 for the Colorado Leases. MAB
Resources is acquiring the Colorado Leases for a cost of between $300 and $500 per net mineral
acre. MAB Resources is obligated to drill one well during the first 12 months and four additional
wells during the second 12 months on the Piceance Basin acreage. GSL is currently in the process
of reviewing potential drill sites.
MAB Resources and GSL have entered into an Exploration Agreement (the Colorado Agreement)
under which GSL will receive a 50% working interest in the Colorado Leases and is obligated to pay
100% of the first $50 million of the costs and expenses incurred by MAB Resources and GSL in
connection with acquisition, drilling and development of the Colorado Leases, on terms similar to
the Utah Agreement. However, under the Colorado Agreement, the monthly advance payments to MAB
Resources as a project development costs are $20,000 and commence July 1, 2005. The total amount
of such advances are deducted from GSLs carried interest obligation. Thereafter, each party will
be responsible for its proportionate interest. In addition, MAB Resources will retain a three
percent overriding royalty interest of the gross
proceeds of all sales of hydrocarbons on the Colorado Leases or lands pooled or unitized
therewith.
4
Piceance II Colorado.
MAB Resources has an interest in approximately 1,000 net leasehold acres in Garfield County,
Colorado, together with a right to acquire up to an additional 1,500 acres, which the third-party
sellers are obligated to obtain, and which MAB Resource is obligated to purchase. MAB Resources
will pay $4,000 per net mineral acre, and is further obligated to commence the drilling of eight
wells by August 1, 2006.
MAB Resources will assign an undivided 50% of the acquired interests to GSL, subject to an
agreement similar to the terms of the Utah Agreement and the Colorado Agreement, and the agreement
related to the Australian permits, and GSL will pay for the first $50 million in costs and expenses
incurred in connection with the drilling and development on this acreage. Under the Piceance II
agreement, MAB receives an advance of $20,000 a month, commencing November 1, 2005 as a project
development costs. The total amount of such advances are deducted from GSLs carried interest
obligation.
These leases have drilling requirements of approximately 20 wells during 2006. MAB/GSL has
partnered for one of the leaseholds with the other owner and they are drilling and completing light
wells. This program has commenced and three wells have already been drilled. GSL has contracted a
rig which will start drilling in August of 2006 under GSLs management.
Australia Properties
MAB Resources has obtained four exploration licenses (the Exploration Licenses) covering
seven million net leasehold acres in the Northern Territory of Australia, for a purchase price of
$1 million, plus a minimum commitment of an additional $3 million in exploration and development
costs to be expended by December 31, 2006. MAB Resources will assign an undivided 50% working
interest in the Exploration Licenses to GSL, subject to an agreement similar to the Utah Agreement
and Colorado Agreement. GSL agrees to pay for the first $100 million in costs paid or incurred in
connection with or in respect to the acquisition and development of the Exploration Licenses, and
the related production licenses that are likely to be issued to MAB Resources and GSL if
hydrocarbons are discovered during the initial exploration phase under the permits. The terms of
this carried interest are similar to the previously described agreements between MAB Resources and
GSL. However the monthly advance payments to MAB Resources as a project development costs are
$100,000 and commenced March 1, 2006. The total amount of such advances are deducted from GSL
carried interest obligation. In addition, MAB Resources will retain a three percent overriding
royalty interest of the gross proceeds of all sales of hydrocarbons on the permits and related
licenses.
On July 3, 2006, GSL began a three hundred and fifty mile 20 seismic program on these net
leasehold acres. GSL currently expects that this program will be completed during the next three
months. This program meets the Northern Territory of Australia
requirements for continuing the leases.
Development Agreement
In addition to the agreements discussed above with MAB Resources, GSL has entered into a
Management and Development Agreement with MAB Resources whereby GSL has the right to obtain and
receive MAB Resources knowledge and operating expertise, which includes the expertise of MAB
Resources oil and gas personnel.
5
Oil and Gas Drilling Activities
GSL/MAB has a 20 plus drilling plan for the Piceance II, Buckskin Mesa gas projects.
Currently there is one rig drilling a four well group from a single pad and then this rig will move
to pad number 2 and complete another 4 well drilling program.
A
second rig managed directly by GSL/MAB will start drilling in August in the Piceance II area
and then be moved to our Buckskin Mesa area.
Seismic and drilling location planning are progressing for a drilling program for the GSL/MAB
heavy oil properties.
Oil and Gas Interests
We currently own interests in the following developed and undeveloped acreage positions.

RISK FACTORS
Risks Related to the Companys and GSLs Business:
GSL is a newly formed company with no operating history, which makes it difficult to evaluate our
business prospects.
GSL was incorporated on June 20, 2005. Accordingly, we face all risks, expenses and
difficulties frequently encountered in connection with the operation and development of a new
business enterprise. We anticipate continued net losses during our initial start-up phase. We
have no operating history, and our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and
difficulties frequently encountered by companies in an early stage of development.
Reserve estimates depend on many assumptions that may turn out to be inconclusive, subject to
varying interpretations, or inaccurate.
Estimates of natural gas and oil reserves are based upon various assumptions, including
assumptions relating to natural gas and oil prices, drilling and operating expenses, capital
expenditures, ownership and title, taxes and the availability of funds. The process of estimating
natural gas and oil reserves is complex. It requires interpretations of available geological,
geophysical, engineering and economic data for each reservoir. Therefore, these estimates are
inherently imprecise. Further, potential for future reserve revisions, either upward or downward,
is significantly greater than normal because 100% of our reserves are undeveloped.
Actual natural gas and oil prices, future production, revenues, operating expenses, taxes,
development expenditures and quantities of recoverable natural gas reserves will most likely vary
from those estimated. Any significant variance could materially affect the estimated quantities
and present value of future net revenues at any time. A reduction in natural gas and oil prices,
for example, would reduce the value of reserves and reduce the amount of natural gas and oil that
could be economically produced, thereby reducing the quantity of reserves. At any time, there
might be
7
adjustments of estimates of reserves to reflect production history, results of exploration
and development, prevailing natural gas prices and other factors, many of which are beyond our
control.
Undeveloped reserves, by their nature, are less certain. Recovery of undeveloped reserves
requires significant capital expenditures and successful drilling operations. Any reserve data
assumes that we will make significant capital expenditures to develop our reserves. To the extent
that the Company has prepared estimates of its natural gas and oil reserves and of the costs
associated with these reserves in accordance with industry standards, the Company cannot assure you
that the estimated costs are accurate, that development will occur as scheduled or that the actual
results will be as estimated. The Company might not be able to raise the capital it needs to
develop these reserves.
Market conditions or operation impediments may hinder our access to natural gas and oil markets or
delay our production.
The marketability of our production depends in part upon the availability, proximity and
capacity of pipelines, natural gas gathering systems and processing facilities. This dependence is
heightened where this infrastructure is less developed. Therefore, if drilling results are
positive in certain areas of the Leases, a new gathering system would need to be built to handle
the potential volume of gas produced. We might be required to shut in wells, at least temporarily,
for lack of a market or because of the inadequacy or unavailability of transportation facilities.
If that were to occur, we would be unable to realize revenue from those wells until arrangements
were made to deliver production to market.
Our ability to produce and market natural gas and oil is affected and also may be harmed by:
|
|
|
the lack of pipeline transmission facilities or carrying capacity; |
|
|
|
|
government regulation of natural gas and oil production; |
|
|
|
|
government transportation, tax and energy policies; |
|
|
|
|
changes in supply and demand; and |
|
|
|
|
general economic conditions. |
We might incur additional debt in order to fund our exploration and development activities, which
would continue to reduce our financial flexibility and could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition or results of operations.
If we incur indebtedness, our ability to meet our debt obligations and reduce our level of
indebtedness depends on future performance. General economic conditions, oil and gas prices and
financial, business and other factors affect our operations and future performance. Many of these
factors are beyond our control. We cannot assure you that we will be able to generate sufficient
cash flow to pay the interest on our debt or that future working capital, borrowings or equity
financing will be available to pay or refinance such debt. Factors that will affect our ability to
raise cash through an offering of our capital stock or a refinancing of our debt include financial
market conditions, the value of our assets and performance at the time we need capital. We cannot
assure you that we will have sufficient funds to make such payments. If we do not have sufficient
funds and are otherwise unable to negotiate renewals of our borrowings or arrange new financing, we
8
might have to sell significant assets. Any such sale could have a material adverse effect on our
business and financial results.
We have significant future capital requirements. If these obligations are not met, our growth and
operations could be non-functional.
Our future growth depends on our ability to make large capital expenditures for the
development of the working interests we have acquired. In addition, we may acquire interests in
additional oil and gas leases where we will be required to pay for a specific amount of the initial
costs and expenses related to the development of those leases. We intend to finance our
foreseeable capital expenditures through additional fundings for which we have no commitments at
this time. Future cash flows and the availability of financing will be subject to a number of
variables, such as:
|
|
|
the success of the leases; |
|
|
|
|
success in locating and producing new reserves; and |
|
|
|
|
prices of natural gas and oil. |
Additional financing sources will be required in the future to fund developmental and
exploratory drilling. Issuing equity securities to satisfy our financing requirements could cause
substantial dilution to our existing stockholders. Additional debt financing could lead to:
|
|
|
a substantial portion of operating cash flow being dedicated to the payment of
principal and interest; |
|
|
|
|
the Company being more vulnerable to competitive pressures and economic downturns;
and |
|
|
|
|
restrictions on the Companys operations. |
Financing might not be available in the future, or we might not be able to obtain necessary
financing on acceptable terms, if at all. If sufficient capital resources are not available, we
might be forced to curtail drilling and other activities or be forced to sell some assets on an
untimely or unfavorable basis, which would have an adverse affect our business, financial condition
and results of operations.
The leases and/or future properties might not produce as anticipated, and the Company might not be
able to determine reserve potential, identify liabilities associated with the properties or obtain
protection from sellers against them, which could cause the Company to incur losses.
Although the Company has reviewed and evaluated the leases in a manner consistent with
industry practices, this review and evaluation might not necessarily reveal all existing or
potential problems. This is also true for any future acquisitions made by the Company.
Inspections may not always be performed on every well, and environmental problems, such as
groundwater contamination, are not necessarily observable even when an inspection is undertaken.
Even when problems are identified, a seller may be unwilling or unable to provide
effective contractual protection against all or part of those problems, and the Company often
assumes environmental and other risks and liabilities in connection with the acquired properties.
9
We do not plan to insure against all potential operating risks. We might incur substantial
losses and be subject to substantial liability claims as a result of our natural gas and oil
operations.
We do not intend to insure against all risks. We intend to maintain insurance against various
losses and liabilities arising from operations in accordance with customary industry practices and
in amounts that management believes to be prudent. Losses and liabilities arising from uninsured
and underinsured events or in amounts in excess of existing insurance coverage could have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Our natural
gas and oil exploration and production activities will be subject to hazards and risks associated
with drilling for, producing and transporting natural gas and oil, and any of these risks can cause
substantial losses resulting from:
|
|
|
environmental hazards, such as uncontrollable flows of natural gas, oil, brine, well
fluids, toxic gas or other pollution into the environment, including groundwater and
shoreline contamination; |
|
|
|
|
abnormally pressured formations; |
|
|
|
|
mechanical difficulties, such as stuck oil field drilling and service tools and
casing collapse; |
|
|
|
|
fires and explosions; |
|
|
|
|
personal injuries and death; |
|
|
|
|
regulatory investigations and penalties; and |
|
|
|
|
natural disasters. |
Any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct operations
or result in substantial losses. We might elect not to obtain insurance if we believe that the
cost of available insurance is excessive relative to the risks presented. In addition, pollution
and environmental risks generally are not fully insurable. If a significant accident or other
event occurs and is not fully covered by insurance, it could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations.
Risks Relating to the Oil and Gas Industry:
A substantial or extended decline in natural gas and oil prices may adversely affect our ability to
meet our capital expenditure obligations and financial commitments.
Our revenues, operating results and future rate of growth are substantially dependent upon the
prevailing prices of, and demand for, natural gas and oil. Declines in the prices of, or demand
for, natural gas and oil may adversely affect our financial condition, liquidity, ability to
finance planned capital expenditures and results of operations. Lower natural gas and oil prices
may also reduce the amount of natural gas and oil that we can produce economically. Historically,
natural gas and oil prices and markets have been volatile, and they are likely to continue to be
volatile in the future. A decrease in natural gas or oil prices will not only reduce revenues and
profits, but will also reduce the quantities of reserves that are commercially
recoverable and may result in charges to earnings for impairment of the value of these assets.
If natural gas or oil prices decline significantly
10
for extended periods of time in the future, we might not be able to generate enough cash flow from operations to meet our obligations and make
planned capital expenditures. Natural gas and oil prices are subject to wide fluctuations in
response to relatively minor changes in the supply of, and demand for, natural gas and oil, market
uncertainty and a variety of additional factors that are beyond our control. Among the factors
that could cause this fluctuation are:
|
|
|
changes in supply and demand for natural gas and oil; |
|
|
|
|
levels of production and other activities of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting
Countries, or OPEC, and other natural gas and oil producing nations; |
|
|
|
|
market expectations about future prices; |
|
|
|
|
the level of global natural gas and oil exploration, production activity and
inventories; |
|
|
|
|
political conditions, including embargoes, in or affecting other oil producing
activity; and |
|
|
|
|
the price and availability of alternative fuels. |
Lower natural gas and oil prices may not only decrease our revenues on a per unit basis, but
also may reduce the amount of natural gas and oil that we can produce economically. A substantial
or extended decline in oil or natural gas prices may materially and adversely affect our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
Drilling for and producing natural gas and oil are high-risk activities with many uncertainties
that could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Our future success depends on the success of our exploration, development and production
activities in the leases. These activities are subject to numerous risks beyond our control,
including the risk that we will not find any commercially productive natural gas or oil reservoirs.
Our decisions to purchase, explore, develop or otherwise exploit prospects or properties will
depend in part on the evaluation of data obtained through geophysical and geological analyses,
production data and engineering studies, the results of which are often inconclusive or subject to
varying interpretations. The cost of drilling, completing and operating wells is often uncertain
before drilling commences. Overruns in budgeted expenditures are common risks that can make a
particular project uneconomical. Further, many factors may curtail, delay or prevent drilling
operations, including:
|
|
|
unexpected drilling conditions; |
|
|
|
|
pressure or irregularities in geological formations; |
|
|
|
|
equipment failures or accidents; |
|
|
|
|
pipeline and processing interruptions or unavailability; |
|
|
|
|
title problems; |
|
|
|
|
adverse weather conditions; |
|
|
|
|
lack of market demand for natural gas and oil;
|
11
|
|
|
delays imposed by or resulting from compliance with environmental and other
regulatory requirements; |
|
|
|
|
shortages of or delays in the availability of drilling rigs and the delivery of
equipment; and |
|
|
|
|
reductions in natural gas and oil prices. |
Our future drilling activities might not be successful, and drilling success rate overall or
within a particular area could decline. We could incur losses by drilling unproductive wells.
Although we have identified numerous potential drilling locations, we cannot be sure that we will
ever drill them or will produce natural gas or oil from them or from any other potential drilling
locations. Shut-in wells, curtailed production and other production interruptions may negatively
impact our business and result in decreased revenues.
Competition in the oil and gas industry is intense, and many of our competitors have greater
financial, technological and other resources than we do, which may adversely affect our ability to
compete.
We operate in the highly competitive areas of oil and gas exploration, development and
acquisition with a substantial number of other companies. We face intense competition from
independent, technology-driven companies as well as from both major and other independent oil and
gas companies in each of the following areas:
|
|
|
seeking oil and gas exploration licenses and production licenses; |
|
|
|
|
acquiring desirable producing properties or new leases for future exploration; |
|
|
|
|
marketing natural gas and oil production; |
|
|
|
|
integrating new technologies; and |
|
|
|
|
acquiring the equipment and expertise necessary to develop and operate properties. |
Many of our competitors have substantially greater financial, managerial, technological and
other resources. These companies might be able to pay more for exploratory prospects and
productive oil and gas properties and may be able to define, evaluate, bid for and purchase a
greater number of properties and prospects than our financial or human resources permit. To the
extent competitors are able to pay more for properties than we are able to afford, we will be
at a competitive disadvantage. Further, many competitors may enjoy technological advantages and
may be able to implement new technologies more rapidly. Our ability to explore for natural gas and
oil prospects and to acquire additional properties in the future will depend upon its ability to
successfully conduct operations, implement advanced technologies, evaluate and select suitable
properties and consummate transactions in this highly competitive environment.
Shortages of rigs, equipment, supplies and personnel could delay or otherwise adversely affect our
cost of operations or our ability to operate according to our business plans.
If drilling activity increases in the United States generally, shortage of drilling and
completion rigs, field equipment and qualified personnel could develop. From time to time, these
costs have sharply increased in various areas around the world and could do so again. The demand
12
for and wage rates of qualified drilling rig crews generally rise in response to the increasing
number of active rigs in service and could increase sharply in the event of a shortage. Shortages
of drilling and completion rigs, field equipment or qualified personnel could delay, restrict or
curtail our exploration and development operations, which could in turn harm its operating results.
To the extent that we establish natural gas and oil reserves, it will be required to replace,
maintain or expand its natural gas and oil reserves in order to prevent its reserves and production
from declining, which would adversely affect cash flows and income.
In general, production from natural gas and oil properties declines over time as reserves are
depleted, with the rate of decline depending on reservoir characteristics. If we establish
reserves, of which there is no assurance, and are not successful in our subsequent exploration and
development activities or in subsequently acquiring properties containing proved reserves, our
proved reserves will decline as reserves are produced. Our future natural gas and oil production
is highly dependent upon our ability to economically find, develop or acquire reserves in
commercial quantities.
To the extent cash flow from operations is reduced, either by a decrease in prevailing prices
for natural gas and oil or an increase in finding and development costs, and external sources of
capital become limited or unavailable, our ability to make the necessary capital investment to
maintain or expand our asset base of natural gas and oil reserves would be impaired. Even with
sufficient available capital, our future exploration and development activities may not result in
additional proved reserves, and we might not be able to drill productive wells at acceptable costs.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
On May 12, 2006, the Company, GSL, and certain shareholders of GSL closed on the share
exchange discussed in the Agreement. Pursuant to the transactions contemplated thereby, the
Company issued 196,673,000 shares of the Companys common stock in exchange for the same number of
shares of GSLs common stock. The shares of Company common stock were issued in reliance on
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder as the basis for its
exemption from registration. It is the Companys understanding that each GSL shareholder that
received Company common stock is an accredited investor as defined under Rule 501 promulgated under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company did not engage in any public advertising or general
solicitation in connection with the issuance of these shares of Company common stock.

ITEM 6. |
|
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION |
Plan of Operation
Our plan of operations is to form three primary business units and manage the assets under
these units:
|
1. |
|
Unconventional natural gas exploration in Colorado, |
|
|
2. |
|
Heavy crude exploration and processing in Montana and Utah, |
|
|
3. |
|
Exploration of an oil and gas field in Australia. |
The development of our Colorado properties will include:
|
|
|
Drilling of wells in our 1,000 acre holdings in Piceance Basin. We expect to
complete approximately 8 wells and have gas production by the end of the 2006
calendar year.
|
14
|
|
|
Exploration of our 16,000 acre lease near Buckskin Mesa/Powell Park discovery
wells in the northern Piceance Basin. Our plan is to reprocess 3-D seismic data.
Based on results of this analysis, we anticipate three (3) well exploration program
will be undertaken in calendar year 2006. These wells will be to an estimated depth
of 10,000 to 12,000 feet, to test the Williams Fork, Cameo and Ft. Union
formations. |
Associated with the development of our Colorado properties, we anticipate that, over the next
twelve months, we will incur the following costs;
|
|
|
$15,000,000 to $25,000,000 in connection with the Piceance II project, to
include seismic, drilling, completion and production facilities. |
|
|
|
|
$5,000,000 to $14,000,000 in connection with the Buckskin Mesa project, to
include seismic, and drilling. |
The development of our heavy oil prospects in Montana and Utah will include:
|
|
|
The development of at least 15,000 acres of prime heavy oil acreage in Montana. |
|
|
|
|
The development of 173,000 acres owned or under contract in the Great Salt Lake. |
We anticipate that, over the next twelve (12) months, we will incur the following costs
related to our heavy oil prospects in Montana and Utah:
|
|
|
$7,000,000 to $12,500,000 to add land in Montana in areas where we have already
completed acquisitions |
|
|
|
|
$5,000,000 to $11,000,000 in connection with the Fiddler Creek project, to
include drilling, completion and production facilities |
|
|
|
|
$1,000,000 to $2,000,000 in connection with the Great Salt Lake project, to
include project design, and project equipment procurement |
In Australia we plan to explore and develop the 7,000,000 acre prospect in northwestern
Australia (Beetaloo Basin). During 2006, we plan to reprocess over
420 miles of seismic data
and field seismic operations for 2-D seismic data. We anticipate that, over the next
twelve (12) months, we will incur $3,000,000 to $6,000,000 in costs related to seismic reprocessing
and field acquisition of seismic.
Neither GSL nor the Company has commenced principal operations nor earned revenue as of
March 31, 2006, and is considered a development stage company. In order to fund its planned
exploration and development of oil and gas properties, the Company will require significant
additional funding, in addition to the funds raised under private placement offerings completed by
GSL.
Management believes that upon successful completion of private placements offerings, the
Company will have sufficient capital to meet its obligations during the remainder of the current
fiscal year. We expect that we will require additional funding for anticipated costs of our
projects subsequent to 2006 and that the additional funding will be in the form of equity or
convertible debt financing. However, we cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to raise
sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund our projects, and other working
capital
15
requirements. We believe that debt financing will not be an alternative for our
exploration program. We do not have any arrangements in place for any future equity financing.

Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or
indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or
shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and
(ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares.
Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example,
persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are
deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for
example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is
provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is
deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by
reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person
as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the persons actual ownership or voting power
with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding on the date of this Proxy
Statement. As of July 1, 2006, the Company had 225,373,000 shares of common stock issued and
outstanding. |

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Digital Ecosystems Corp.
(A Development Stage Company)
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Digital Ecosystems Corp. (the Company) (a
Development Stage Company) as at March 31, 2006 and 2005, the related statements of operations,
stockholders equity (deficiency) and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from
inception on February 21, 2002 to March 31, 2006. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Digital Ecosystems Corp. (a Development Stage Company) as at
March 31, 2006 and 2005 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then
ended and for the period from inception on February 21, 2002 to March 31, 2006, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as
a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered
recurring losses and net cash outflows from operations since inception. These factors raise
substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans
in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

DIGITAL ECOSYSTEMS CORP.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2006 AND 2005
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Digital Ecosystems Corp. (the Company), a development stage company, was incorporated in
Nevada on February 21, 2002.
The Company is engaged in the business of providing consumers with clean and pure bottled and
bulk drinking water through various distribution methods, and the provision of the various
technologies that make water purification possible. As at March 31, 2006, the Company is
evaluating whether to continue their water business and is considering pursuing other
opportunities in the oil and natural gas business.
On September 6, 2005, the Companys Board of Directors approved a 10 to 1 stock split. All
share and per share amounts for the year ended March 31, 2006 and comparative amounts for all
periods presented have been restated to reflect the forward stock split unless otherwise
indicated.
The accompanying financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going
concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the
normal course of business. As of March 31, 2006, the Company had $8,401 in cash, negative
working capital of $334,267, and accumulated net losses of $487,734 since inception. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and
classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that
might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company
does not have sufficient cash on hand to fund its proposed expenditures for the next twelve
months and will require additional funding. These factors raise substantial doubts that the
Company will be able to continue as a going concern. Its continuation as a going concern is
dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely
basis, to obtain additional financing or refinancing as may be required, to develop commercially
viable products and processes, and ultimately to establish successful operations. The Company
anticipates covering its costs by operating revenues and additional equity financing. If the
Company is unable to complete its financing requirements

or achieve revenue as projected, it will then modify its expenditures and plan of operations to
coincide with the actual financing completed and actual operating revenues.
The Company is not currently earning any revenues.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
as of the date of the balance sheet, and revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual
results in future periods could be different from these estimates made.
|
b) |
|
Start Up and Development Costs |
Since inception, certain expenditures have been incurred primarily for product development,
business development, market development and financing purposes. While these expenditures are
intended to benefit future periods, the Company follows the accounting policy of expensing, as
incurred, those expenditures not identified with specific projects or financing activities.
The Companys financial instruments consist of cash, prepaid expenses, amounts due to a related
party, convertible notes payable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The carrying
value of these financial instruments approximate their fair value due to their liquidity or
their short-term nature.
Cash consists of cash on deposit with a bank. The Company places its cash with a high quality
financial institution and, to date, has not experienced losses on any of its balances.

(Stated in U.S. Dollars)
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
|
e) |
|
Comprehensive Income (Loss) |
SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income (loss) and its components
in financial statements. Comprehensive loss, as defined, includes all changes in equity (net
assets) during a period from non-owner sources. To date, the Company has not had any
significant transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive income (loss).
|
f) |
|
Development Stage Company |
The Company is a development stage company as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7 (SFAS7), Accounting and
Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises. The Company is devoting substantially all of its
present efforts to establish a new business and planned principal operations have not commenced.
All losses accumulated since inception are part of the Companys development stage activities.
|
g) |
|
Research and Development |
The Company charges amounts incurred in research and development of technology to operations
until such time as technological feasibility is demonstrated. Amounts expensed include acquired
intangibles, relating to specific research and development projects, such as license and
extension costs, which do not have alternative uses in other research and development activities
or otherwise.
|
h) |
|
Convertible Notes Payable |
The Company accounts for convertible notes payable in accordance with the provisions of the
Emerging Issues Task Force Release No. 98-5 and 00-27, whereby, any embedded beneficial conversion features present in convertible securities are valued separately at
issuance. The embedded beneficial conversion feature is recognized and measured by allocating a
portion of the proceeds equal to the intrinsic value of that feature to additional paid-in
capital. That amount is calculated at the commitment date as the difference between the
effective conversion price and the fair value of the common stock or other securities into which
the security is convertible, multiplied by the number of shares into which the security is
convertible.
In circumstances where the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature is greater than
the proceeds allocated to the convertible instrument, the amount of the discount assigned to the
beneficial conversion feature is limited to the amount of the proceeds allocated to the
convertible instrument.

(Stated in U.S. Dollars)
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
|
h) |
|
Convertible Notes Payable (Continued) |
For convertible instruments that have a stated redemption date (such as term debt), the discount
resulting from recording a beneficial conversion option should by accreted from the date of
issuance to the stated redemption date of the convertible instrument.
In the event of early conversion or default, the remaining discount is recognized as interest
expense during the period in which such early conversion or default occurs.
The Company has concluded that since the conversion price will be equal to the market price one
day prior to the date of conversion, there is no beneficial conversion feature embedded in the
instruments and therefore no discount has been recorded.
|
i) |
|
Foreign Currency Translation |
For the Companys international operations, local currencies are considered their functional
currencies. The Company translates assets and liabilities to their U.S. dollar equivalents at
rates in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenue and expenses are translated at average
monthly exchange rates. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are recorded in
stockholders equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. The amount has
not been material from inception to March 31, 2006.
Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions
denominated in a currency other than the local functional currency are in the statement of
operations.
|
j) |
|
Net Income (Loss) Per Share |
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 Earnings Per Share, requires dual
presentation of basic earnings per share (EPS) and diluted EPS on the face of all income and
loss statements, for all entities with complex capital structures. Basic EPS is computed as net
income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through
stock options, warrants and other convertible securities. At March 31, 2006 and 2005, the
Company had no outstanding stock options, warrants and other convertible securities;
accordingly, only basic EPS is presented.

(Stated in U.S. Dollars)
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
The Company is not currently earning any revenue. The Company expects to earn its revenue by
(i) re-selling private labels; (ii) advertising by other businesses on the Companys website;
and (iii) sale of third party products originating from the website. Revenues are recognized
once they are earned, specifically when: (a) services are provided or products are delivered to
customers; (b) clear proof that an arrangement exists; (c) amounts are fixed or can be
determined and; (d) the Companys ability to collect is reasonably assured.
In particular, the Company will recognize:
|
i) |
|
sales of private labels upon title transfer on shipment; |
|
|
ii) |
|
advertising revenue straight-line over the term of the advertising term; |
|
|
iii) |
|
commission revenue on a net basis as the Company acts as the broker for the
products originating from the website. |
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. No advertising expense was incurred from inception
to March 31, 2006.
|
m) |
|
Website Development Costs |
Pursuant to Emerging Issues Task Force No. 00-2 Website Development Costs (EITF 00-2),
the Company applies American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position No.
98-1 to account for website development costs. In accordance with EITF 00-2, the Company
expenses all costs incurred during the preliminary project stage and capitalizes all internal
and external direct costs of materials and services consumed in developing the software, once
the development has reached the application development stage. Application development stage
costs are amortized over their estimated useful life. All costs incurred for upgrades,
maintenance and enhancements, including the cost of website content, that does not result in
additional functionality, are expensed as incurred.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between
the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities, and their
respective tax bases, operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect
on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
period that includes the enactment date. To the extent that it is not considered to be more
likely than not that a deferred tax asset will be realized, a valuation allowance is provided.
The Company follows FAS No. 131 disclosures about segments of an enterprise and related
information about operating segments in financial statements, as well as additional disclosures
about products and services, geographic areas and major customers.
The Company conducts substantially all of its operations in Canada in one business segment.
3. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The following accounting pronouncements have been introduced since the filing of the
Companys Form 10K filed on July 13, 2005, none of which have any impact on the Company at
this time:
|
a) |
