The Niobrara-DJ Basin is a crude oil and liquid gas play that is located in Northeast Colorado and Southeast Wyoming. The Acquisition was completed with an effective date of January 1, 2018 and the purchase price was $1 million.

EnergyNet hosts a well-known industry online auction house for the buying and selling of mineral rights. EnergyNet’s listed auctions relate primarily to assets located in the continental United States. Sellers post properties on the EnergyNet online portal and potential buyers are invited to bid on such properties. Sellers also generally include additional information regarding the assets to assist in the diligence of such assets. Potential buyers are also permitted to contact the Sellers directly for questions prior to the close of the auction. Sellers may set certain minimum, or reserve prices, that bidders must reach in order to successfully purchase the properties in question. Sellers make certain representations relating to the properties that are posted for auction, but Buyers generally assume title risk on the properties and are encouraged to conduct diligence.
Exhibit 99.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on December 20, 2017, contains the primary standard form documents entered into between buyers and sellers of properties listed on EnergyNet, and are incorporated by reference in this Current Report.
