Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Lustre Oil Company, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Laredo Oil, Inc. (“Lustre”), and Erehwon Oil & Gas, LLC (“Erehwon”) have entered into an Exploration and Development Agreement, dated July 18, 2023 (the “Development Agreement”), with Texakoma Exploration & Production Company (“Texakoma”), for the exploration and development of the “Lustre Field Prospect,” as described in the Development Agreement (excluding schedules). Lustre and Erehwon are parties to an existing Acquisition and Participation Agreement, under which those parties agreed to acquire certain oil and gas interests, and drill, complete, re-enter, re-complete, sidetrack, and equip wells, in certain counties in Montana.
Under the terms of the Development Agreement, Texakoma agreed to pay Lustre and Erehwon (jointly, “LOC”), the following amounts: (i) $175,000 on or before July 21, 2023; and (ii) another $175,000 upon the “spudding” of the initial test well, which is scheduled to occur prior to October 1, 2023, subject to rig availability. Upon the spudding of that test well, LOC is required to deliver to Texakoma a partial assignment of an 85% working interest in the oil and gas leases covering the first two initial drilling and spacing units.
Texakoma will pay 100% of the costs associated with the drilling and completion of two initial test wells. LOC will have an undivided 15% working interest, carried through the tanks, in the initial two wells. Texakoma will have the option, but not the obligation, to participate in the development of the remainder of the Lustre Field Prospect, which may be exercised by giving LOC written notice of its intent to participate within 90 days after the completion rig moves off the second test well location.
If Texakoma duly exercises its option, Texakoma agrees to drill eight additional wells, with LOC having a 15% working interest carried through the tanks, and pay LOC $706,602.75 for an 85% leasehold interest in the next eight drill sites and a 50% leasehold interest in the balance of the Lustre Field Prospect acreage. The working and net revenue interest in any wells drilled subsequent to the first ten wells shall be shared by Texakoma and LOC on a 50:50 basis. Following the Texakoma transaction, Laredo will retain a 100% leasehold interest and full control of an additional 30,556 net mineral acres in northeastern Montana at the western edge of the Williston Basin.
