graduated in 1980 from New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology with a B.S.
degree in Geological Engineering. Upon graduation he joined Gearhart Industries
as a field engineer working in Texas, New Mexico, Kansas, Oklahoma and Arkansas.
Gearhart Industries later merged with Halliburton Company. In 1993, after 13
years working in various field operations and management roles primarily focused
on reservoir evaluation, log analysis and log data acquisition he assumed a
global role with Halliburton as a petrophysics instructor in Fort Worth, Texas.
His duties were to teach Halliburton personnel and customers around the world
log analysis and competition technology and to review analytical reservoir
problems. In this role Mr. Bailey had the opportunity to review reservoirs in
Europe, Latin America, Asia Pacific and the Middle East developing a special
expertise in carbonate reservoirs. In 1997, he became technical manager for
Halliburton in Mexico focusing on finding engineering solutions to the
production challenges of large carbonate reservoirs in Mexico. He joined the
Company as its Chief Geological Engineer on March 1, 2002. The experience,
qualifications, attributes, and skills gained by Mr. Bailey in these oil and gas
exploration and production industry positions directly apply to the operations
of the Company and lead to the conclusion that Mr. Bailey should serve as a
Director of the Company.&#160;&#160;&#160;Mr. Bailey was elected as President of

Association of Stratigraphic Palynologists and the Society of Organic
Petrologists. From 1992-1998 he was engaged in association with Laird
Exploration Co., Inc. of Houston, Texas, directing exploration and production in
south central Kentucky. In 1999, he purchased all the assets of Laird
Exploration in south central Kentucky and operates independently. While with
Amoco Dr. Clendening was instrumental in Amoco's acquisition in the early 1970's
of large land acreage holdings in Northeast Tennessee, based upon his geological
studies and recommendations. His work led directly to the discovery of what is
now the Company&#8217;s Paul Reed # 1 well.&#160;&#160;He further recognized the area
to have significant oil and gas potential and is credited with discovery of the
field that is now known as the Company's Swan Creek Field. Dr. Clendening
previously served as a Director of the Company from September 1998 to August
2000. He was again elected as a Director of the Company on February 28, 2003.
The experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills gained by Dr. Clendening
in the science of geology and the oil and gas exploration and production
industry as reflected in his extensive career fully and directly apply to the
operations of the Company and lead to the conclusion that Dr. Clendening should
serve as a Director of the Company.</font></div>

10A(m)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations

candidates to be presented for election at the Company&#8217;s annual meeting of
shareholders. Although the Company does not have a nominating committee charter,
the Company&#8217;s Board of Directors has adopted procedures for annual director
nominations by the Nomination and Governance Committee. Those procedures provide
that the qualifications that should be met by any person recommended as a
nominee for a position on the Company&#8217;s Board of Directors should include one or
more of the following: a background or experience in oil and gas exploration,
production, transportation, geology, construction, finance or in another
business, government service, or profession that would reasonably enable the
nominee to provide seasoned and reputable service to the shareholders of the
Company in the performance of the duties of a member of the Board of
Directors.&#160;&#160;In addition to these qualifications, a nominee must be
willing to serve without a right to receive compensation for such service. The
Committee has not paid fees to any third party to identify, evaluate or to
assist in identifying or evaluating, potential nominees, but may do so in the
future if it determines it necessary</font></div>

election of directors, votes may be cast in favor of all nominees, may be
withheld with regard to all nominees or may be withheld only with regard to
nominees specified by the stockholder. Directors will be elected by a plurality
of the votes of the shares of the Company's common stock present in person or
represented by proxy, and entitled to vote on the election of directors at a
meeting at which a quorum is present. Abstentions are tabulated in determining
the votes present at a meeting. Consequently, an abstention has the same effect
as a vote against a director-nominee, as each abstention would be one less vote
in favor of a director nominee. If a broker indicates on the proxy that it does
not have discretionary authority as to certain shares to vote on a particular
matter (i.e., a &#8220;broker non-vote&#8221;), those shares will not be considered as
present and entitled to vote with respect to that matter. The Board of Directors
recommends that stockholders vote "FOR" the nominees set forth above. Unless
marked to the contrary, proxies received will be voted FOR the nominees set
forth above.</font></div>

audited the Company's financial statements for the past five (5) fiscal

The Board of Directors considers Rodefer Moss to be well qualified for the
function of serving as the Company's auditors. Tennessee Law does not require
the approval of the selection of auditors by the Company's stockholders, but in
view of the importance of the financial statement to stockholders, the Board of
Directors deems it desirable that they pass upon its selection of auditors. In
the event the stockholders disapprove of the selection, the Board of Directors

it does not have discretionary authority as to certain shares to vote on a
particular matter (i.e., a &#8220;broker non-vote&#8221;), those shares will not be
considered as present and entitled to vote with respect to that matter. An
abstention from voting by a stockholder present in person or by proxy at the

represents a share present or represented at the meeting and entitled to vote,
