Carried
Interest Agreement
|
|
|
|
On
August 27, 2002, GeoGlobal entered into a CIA with GSPC, which grants
the
Company a 10% Carried Interest (“CI”) (net 5% - see note 4d) in the KG
Offshore Block. The CIA provides that GSPC is responsible for GeoGlobal's
entire share of any and all costs incurred during the Exploration
Phase
prior to the date of initial commercial
production.
|
|
Under
the terms of the CIA, all of GeoGlobal's and Roy Group (Mauritius)
Inc.'s
(“RGM”), a related party (see note 8b) proportionate share of capital
costs for exploration and development activities will be recovered
by GSPC
without interest over the projected production life or ten years,
whichever is less, from oil and natural gas produced on the Exploration
Block. GeoGlobal is not entitled to any share of production until
GSPC has
recovered the Company's share of the costs and expenses that were
paid by
GSPC on behalf of the Company and
RGM.
|
|
GeoGlobal
has been advised by GSPC, that GSPC is seeking payment of the amount
by
which the exploration costs attributable to GeoGlobal under the PSC
relating to the KG Offshore Block exceeds the amount that GSPC deems
it is
obligated to pay on behalf of GeoGlobal (including the net 5%
participating interest of RGM) under the terms of the CIA. GSPC
asserts that the Company is required to pay 10% of the exploration
expenses over and above US$59.23 million. GeoGlobal disputes
this assertion of GSPC. See note
11e.

At
January 1, 2006, the impact of the adoption of FAS123(R) required
the
Company to recognize a charge for past stock-based compensation options
granted of US$367,596 over the next 3 years in accordance with their
respective vesting periods. In the period from inception August
21, 2002 to September 30, 2007 US$343,247; (three and nine months
ended
September 30, 2007, US$14,073 and US$42,219, respectively; and for
the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, US$49,340 and US$286,955,
respectively) of this charge was recognized in the Consolidated Statement
of Operations as general and administrative expense. This
resulted in an increase in the net loss and comprehensive loss for
the
respective periods in the same amount and no impact on the net loss
per
share – basic and diluted for the
periods.
|
|
ii)
|
At
September 30, 2007, the total compensation cost related to non-vested
awards not yet recognized was US$2,283,389 (December 31, 2006 –
US$1,577,286) which will be recognized over the remaining vesting
period
of the options. The total fair value of all options vested
during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was US$1,549,275
and US$1,965,475, respectively (year ended December 31, 2006 -
US$1,046,490).

The
Company is required to expend funds on the exploration activities
to
fulfill the terms of the minimum work commitment based on our
participating interest for Phase I pursuant to the PSCs in respect
of each
of our exploration blocks as
follows:
|
|
i)
|
Mehsana
- Acquire, process and interpret 75 square kilometers of 3D seismic
and
drill 7 exploratory wells between 1,000 and 2,200
meters.
|
|
ii)
|
Sanand/Miroli
- Acquire, process and interpret 200 square kilometers of 3D seismic
and
drill 12 exploratory wells between 1,500 and 3,000
meters.
|
|
iii)
|

|
Tarapur
Block - The third and final
phase of exploratory activities on the Tarapur Block had a term of
2 years
expiring November 22, 2007 with a work commitment to drill one well
to a
depth of 3,000 meters or to the Deccan trap. This requirement
has been completed and all areas not encompassing a commercial discovery
after November 22, 2007 will be relinquished back to the
GOI. Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited of India has the
right to participate into the development of any commercial discovery
on
the Tarapur Block by acquiring a 30% participating interest as provided
under the PSC. The exercise of this right would result in the
reduction of our PI to 14%.

The
first of our agreements, entered into in February 2003 under NELP-III,
grants exploration rights in an area offshore eastern India in the
Krishna
Godavari Basin in the State of Andhra Pradesh. We refer to this
KG-OSN-2001/3 exploration block as the “KG Offshore Block” and we have a
net 5% carried interest (“CI”) under this
agreement.
|
·
|
We
entered into two agreements which grant exploration rights in areas
onshore in the Cambay Basin in the State of Gujarat in western
India. These agreements were entered into in February 2004
under NELP-IV and we have a 10% participating interest (“PI”) under each
of these agreements. We refer to the CB-ONN-2002/2 exploration
block as the “Mehsana Block” and the CB-ONN-2002/3 exploration block as
the “Sanand/Miroli Block.”
|
·
|
Pursuant
to an agreement entered into in April 2005, we purchased from Gujarat
State Petroleum Corporation Limited (“GSPC”), a 20% PI in the agreement
granting exploration rights granted under NELP-III to an onshore
exploration block in the Cambay Basin in the State of Gujarat in
western
India. We refer to this CB-ON/2 exploration block as the
“Tarapur Block”.
|
·
|
In
September 2005, we entered into agreements with respect to two areas
under
NELP-V. One area is located onshore in the Cambay Basin located
in the State of Gujarat south-east of our three existing Cambay blocks,
in
which we hold a 10% PI. We refer to this CB-ONN-2003/2
exploration block as the “Ankleshwar Block”. The second area is
located onshore in the Deccan Syneclise Basin located in the northern
portion of the State of Maharashtra in west-central India for which
we
hold a 100% PI interest and are the operator. We refer to this
DS-ONN-2003/1 exploration block as the “DS 03
Block”.
|
·
|
In
March 2007, we signed agreements with respect to four additional
locations
awarded under NELP-VI. One location is onshore in the Krishna
Godavari Basin in the State of Andhra Pradesh adjacent to our KG
Offshore
Block in eastern India in which we hold a 10% PI. We currently
refer to this KG-ONN-2004/1 exploration block as the “KG Onshore
Block”. The second and third locations include two agreements
onshore in north-west India in the Rajasthan Basin in the State of
Rajasthan and we hold a 25% PI in each of these agreements. We
currently refer to the RJ-ONN-2004/2 exploration block as the “RJ Block
20” and the RJ-ONN-2004/3 exploration block as the “RJ Block
21”. The fourth location is onshore in the Deccan Syneclise
Basin in the State of Maharashtra adjacent to our DS 03 Block in
west-central India in which we hold a 100% PI and are the
operator. We currently refer to this DS-ONN-2004/1 exploration
block as the "DS 04 Block."

the
statements in this Quarterly Report regarding our plans and objectives
relating to our future operations,
|
·
|
plans
and objectives regarding the exploration, development and production
activities conducted on the exploration blocks in India in which
we have
interests,
|
·
|
plans
regarding drilling activities intended to be conducted through the
ventures in which we are a participant, the success of those drilling
activities and our ability and the ability of the ventures to complete
any
wells on the exploration blocks, to develop reserves of hydrocarbons
in
commercially marketable quantities, to establish facilities for the
collection, distribution and marketing of hydrocarbons, to produce
oil and
natural gas in commercial quantities and to realize revenues from
the
sales of those hydrocarbons,
|
·
|
our
ability to maintain compliance with the terms and conditions of our
PSCs,
including the related work commitments, to obtain consents, waivers
and
extensions from the DGH or GOI as and when required, and our ability
to
fund those work commitments,
|
·
|
our
plans and objectives to join with others or to directly seek to enter
into
or acquire interests in additional PSCs with the GOI and
others,
|
·
|
our
assumptions, plans and expectations regarding our future capital
requirements,
|
·
|
our
plans and intentions regarding our plans to raise additional
capital,
|
·
|
the
costs and expenses to be incurred in conducting exploration, well
drilling, development and production activities and the adequacy
of our
capital to meet our requirements for our present and anticipated
levels of
activities are all forward-looking
statements.
|
·
|
We
cannot assure you that our assumptions or our business plans and
objectives discussed herein will prove to be accurate or be able
to be
attained.
|
·
|
We
cannot assure you that any commercially recoverable quantities of
hydrocarbon reserves will be discovered on the exploration blocks
in which
we have an interest.
|
·
|
Our
ability to realize revenues cannot be assured. Our ability to
successfully drill, test and complete producing wells cannot be
assured.
|
·
|
We
cannot assure you that we will have available to us the capital required
to meet our plans and objectives at the times and in the amounts
required
or we will have available to us the amounts we are required to fund
under
the terms of the PSCs we are a party
to.
|
·
|
We
cannot assure you that we will be successful in joining any further
ventures seeking to be granted PSCs by the GOI or that we will be
successful in acquiring interests in existing
ventures.
|
·
|
We
cannot assure you that we will obtain all required consents, waivers
and
extensions from the DGH or GOI as and when required to maintain compliance
with our PSCs , that we may not be adversely affected by any delays
we may
experience in receiving those consents, waivers and extensions, that
we
may not incur liabilities under the PSCs for our failure to maintain
compliance with and timely complete the related work programs, or
that
GSPC may not be successful in its efforts to obtain payment from
us on
account of exploration costs it has expended on the KG Offshore Block
for
which it asserts we are liable or otherwise seek to hold us in breach
of
that PSC or commence arbitration proceedings against
us.
|
·
|
We
cannot assure you that the outcome of testing of one or more wells
on the
exploration blocks under our PSCs will be satisfactory and result
in
commercially-productive wells or that any further wells drilled will
have
commercially-successful results.
|
·
|
We
will experience failures to discover oil and gas in commercial
quantities;
|
·
|
There
are uncertainties as to the costs to be incurred in our exploratory
drilling activities, cost overruns are possible and we may encounter
mechanical difficulties and failures in completing
wells;
|
·
|
There
are uncertain costs inherent in drilling into unknown formations,
such as
over-pressured zones, high temperatures and tools lost in the hole;
and
|
·
|
We
may make changes in our drilling plans and locations as a result
of prior
exploratory drilling.
|
·
|
The
venture participants are required to complete certain minimum work
programs during the two or three phases of the terms of the
PSCs. In the event the venture participants fail to fulfill any
of these minimum work programs, the parties to the venture must pay
to the
GOI their proportionate share of the amount that would be required
to
complete the minimum work program. Accordingly, we could be
called upon to pay our proportionate share of the estimated costs
of any
incomplete work programs.
|
·
|
Until
such time as the GOI attains self sufficiency in the production of
crude
oil and condensate and is able to meet its national demand, the parties
to
the venture are required to sell in the Indian domestic market their
entitlement under the PSCs to crude oil and condensate produced from
the
exploration blocks. In addition, the Indian domestic market has
the first call on natural gas produced from the exploration blocks
and the
discovery and production of natural gas must be made in the context
of the
government’s policy of utilization of natural gas and take into account
the objectives of the government to develop its resources in the
most
efficient manner and promote conservation
measures. Accordingly, this provision could interfere with our
ability to realize the maximum price for our share of production
of
hydrocarbons;
|
·
|
The
parties to each agreement that are not Indian companies, which includes
us, are required to negotiate technical assistance agreements with
the GOI
or its nominee whereby such foreign company can render technical
assistance and make available commercially available technical information
of a proprietary nature for use in India by the government or its
nominee,
subject, among other things, to confidentiality
restrictions. Although not intended, this could increase each
venture’s and our cost of operations;
and
|
·
|
The
parties to each venture are required to give preference, including
the use
of tender procedures, to the purchase and use of goods manufactured,
produced or supplied in India provided that such goods are available
on
equal or better terms than imported goods, and to employ Indian
subcontractors having the required skills insofar as their services
are
available on comparable standards and at competitive prices and
terms. Although not intended, this could increase the ventures
and our cost of operations.
