To Develop Past Producing Oil and Shale Natural Gas Projects

On December 23rd 2009, Zone announced that it had entered into an agreement with Consolidated Oil and Gas Corp. (COGC) of Barbourville, Kentucky to find, evaluate and develop past producing oil and shale natural gas projects. These projects are considered to have a lower than average industry risk and have the ability to build a stable, predictable and long lasting revenue stream. This objective can be achieved in two ways: (1) drilling shale natural gas wells in the Appalachian Basin in eastern Kentucky and by (2) acquiring abandoned oil wells or under-developed assets for the purpose of rehabilitation.

Currently, for our business model, the best profit margins are in crude oil production and the rehabilitation of underdeveloped assets. These projects remain profitable as long as crude oil remains above $25 per barrel. COGC has determined that there are several hundred abandoned wells, in the planned area of operation that can be evaluated for the potential of rehabilitation. There are also several hundred more wells that were previously plugged by other operators that can be re-opened for the purpose of rehabilitation.
