On February 23, 2024, the bank reduced the $500,438 standby letter of credit to $25,000 after approval of the insurance company, reduced the $250,000 standby letter of credit to the State of Texas to $0, and retained the standby letter of credit to the federal agency at $10,000. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had total standby letters of credit outstanding of $35,000. The standby letters of credit are valid until cancelled or matured and are collateralized by the Credit Facility with the bank. The terms of the letter of credit to the federal agency is extended for a term of one year at a time. The Company intends to renew the standby letter of credit to the federal agency for as long as required. Although the Company no longer operates any wells in the State of New Mexico, that standby letter of credit will need to be renewed until released. No amounts have been drawn under the standby letters of credit. Surety Bonds – An insurance company issued surety bonds on behalf of the Company totaling $500,438 to various State of New Mexico agencies in order for the Company to do business in the State of New Mexico. The surety bonds are valid until canceled or matured. The terms of the surety bonds are extended for a term of one year at a time. As of March 31, 2025, the Company still had a surety bond in place of $25,000 for the State of New Mexico; however, these bonds are expected to be eliminated once change of ownership is approved by the New Mexico Oil Conservation Division. On January 10, 2024, two insurance companies issued surety bonds on behalf of the Company, one for $250,000, a Texas Railroad Commission ("RRC") required blanket performance bond to operate 100 wells or more in the State of Texas, and one for $2,000,000, an RRC required blanket plugging extension bond, each with zero collateral requirements. The term for these two surety bonds ends on July 1, 2025 and they can be renewed at that time. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had $2,275,000 in total surety bonds.
