Norman L. Peterson, the President of the Company, is also the President of the consenting majority stockholder. See the caption "Voting Securities and Principal Holders Thereof," herein. The cost of preparing, printing and mailing this Information Statement will be borne by the Company. DISSENTERS' RIGHT OF APPRAISAL The Utah Revised Business Corporation Act does not provide for dissenter's rights of appraisal in connection with a change of name of a Utah corporation or an amendment relating to actions by consent of the stockholders without a meeting. Accordingly, stockholders will not have appraisal rights as a result of the proposed amendments.

AMENDMENT TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION AND VOTE REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL The purpose of the amendment to change the name of the Company to "Empire Energy Corporation" is to give the Company a name that reflects its intended business operations. The amendment to allow action by consent of the majority stockholders in lieu of a meeting will have no material effect on stockholders because the Company is required to submit an information or proxy statement on any matter voted upon by the stockholders, by consent or otherwise. Section 16-10a-1003 of the Utah Revised Business Corporation Act provides that every amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of a corporation shall first be adopted by the resolution of the Board of Directors and then be subject to the approval of persons owning a majority of the securities entitled to vote on any such amendment. Resolutions to change the name of the Company and to authorize action by consent of the majority stockholders were unanimously adopted by the Board of Directors and a stockholder which owns a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Company, by written consent in accordance with Sections 16- 10a-1003 of the Utah Revised Business Corporation Act. Peterson & Sons owns in excess of the required majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Company necessary for the adoption of these amendments. See the caption "Voting Securities and Principal Holders Thereof," herein. NO FURTHER VOTES OR PROXIES ARE NEEDED, AND NONE IS REQUESTED. TRANSFER OF STOCK CERTIFICATES On or after May 17, 1999, stockholders may forward their stock certificates to Interwest Transfer Company, 1981 Murray-Holladay Road, Salt Lake City, Utah 84117, Telephone (801) 272-9294, together with $15 for each stock certificate requested to be issued or transferred for new stock certificates bearing the new name of the Company and its new Cusip Number.
