In exchange for gross proceeds of approximately US$1,000,000 from an investor, Heavy Earth issued to the investor a convertible debenture with a three (3) year maturity, an interest rate of 15%, a conversion price US$0.50 per share, and a redemption option for Heavy Earth to redeem the debenture at 115% of the then outstanding principal balance and a common stock purchase warrant entitling the investor to purchase 2,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price at US$0.60 per share. Following the consummation of the securities purchase agreement and issuance of the debenture and warrant, the Company has 70,509,331 issued and outstanding shares of common stock, 4,500,000 shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding debentures and 4,820,833 shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants.

The Company will use the proceeds from the securities purchase agreement for general corporate purposes, development of its oil and gas assets and to fund the delivery to the Colombian Agencia Nacional de Hidrocarburos (ANH) of the recently acquired and interpreted 150 square kilometers of 3D seismic data to maintain the Company’s interest in the Morichito Block. Once delivered, the Company will have fulfilled the requirements of the Morichito Exploration & Production (“E&P”) Contract’s “final phase.” Heavy Earth anticipates being awarded a two-year extension upon the fulfillment of all six phases of the Morichito E&P Contract.
