3. Build upon Cliff Foss’ Texas knowledge and experience
4. Re-leverage retained capital into other oily Multi-well / Resource projects
5. Spread Texon equity to reflect project materiality and technical attributes
6. Warehouse uneconomic gas projects
7. Get better value from 3D / 2D Seismic database
8. Periodically monetize Project success
9. Target 2-3 year cycle of value accretion and returns
