SOLICITATION OF PROXIES This solicitation of proxies is being made by the Company. We will solicit proxies initially by mail. Further solicitations may be made by our directors, officers or employees personally, by telephone, facsimile, e-mail, internet or otherwise, but they will not be specifically compensated for these services. Upon request, we will reimburse brokers, dealers, banks or similar entities acting as nominees for their reasonable expenses incurred in forwarding copies of the proxy materials to the beneficial owners of the shares of our Common Stock they hold as of the record date. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with printing, filing and mailing of this Proxy Statement. VOTING OF PROXIES Stockholders may vote the shares of Common Stock owned by them on the Record Date either by attending the Special Meeting in person or completing and returning a written proxy to the office of our proxy agent, as indicated on the instructions for completion of the proxy.

REVOCATION OF PROXIES Stockholders may revoke a proxy, at any time before it is voted, by: (a) executing and delivering a written notice of revocation of proxy to our corporate secretary at any time before the taking of the vote at the Special Meeting; (b) executing and delivering a later-dated proxy relating to the same shares to our corporate secretary at any time before taking of the vote at the Special Meeting; or (c) attending the Special Meeting in person and: (i) giving affirmative notice at the Special Meeting of their intent to revoke their proxy; and (ii) voting in person.

Sahara Avenue, Suite 202, Las Vegas, NV 89146. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stockholders may also address future requests for separate delivery of Proxy Statements and/or annual reports by contacting us at the address listed above. QUORUM FOR MEETING In order to hold a valid meeting of our stockholders, a quorum equal to a majority|D6| of the shares of Common Stock outstanding must be represented at the meeting. These shares may be represented in person or represented by proxy. Stockholders who abstain from voting on any or all proposals, but who are present at the Special Meeting or represented at the Special Meeting by a properly executed proxy will have their shares counted as present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum. Broker non-votes will also be counted as present at the Special Meeting for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum. However, abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted either in favor or against any of the proposals brought before the Special Meeting. A broker non-vote occurs when shares held by a broker for the account of a beneficial owner are not voted for or against a particular proposal because the broker has not received voting instructions from that beneficial owner and the broker does not have discretionary authority to vote those shares. In the event that a quorum is not present at the Special Meeting, or in the event that a quorum is present but sufficient votes to approve the proposal are not received, the persons named as proxies on the enclosed proxy card may propose one or more adjournments of the Special Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies. The persons named as proxies will vote upon such adjournment after consideration of all circumstances that may bear upon a decision to adjourn the Special Meeting. Any business that might have been transacted at the Special Meeting originally called may be transacted at any such adjourned session(s) at which a quorum is present. The Company will pay the costs of preparing and distributing to shareholders additional proxy materials, if required in connection with any adjournment. Any adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a majority of those securities represented at the Special Meeting in person or by proxy. VOTES REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL In order for a proposal to be approved, the number of votes cast at the Special Meeting in favor of the proposal must be greater than the number of votes cast against the proposal. At the close of business on the Record Date, there were 252,179 shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote (following reverse of 100:1). The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of our Common Stock represented at the Special Meeting in person or by proxy is required to: 1. To approve an amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock, par value $.001 from 75,000,000 shares to 350,000,000 shares of common stock par value $.001 and 50,000,000 preferred shares par value $.001; and 2.

To approve the Company's application for listing on the American Stock Exchange in|D8| 1Q07 or as soon thereafter as we may be qualified; and. 5.

EFFECT OF ABSTENTIONS OR BROKER NON-VOTES Stockholders may vote for or against the proposals or they may abstain from voting.

PROPOSAL NUMBER ONE AMENDMENT OF ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF AUTHORIZED COMMON STOCK AND TO CREATE A NEW CATEGORY OF PREFERRED SHARES On August 25, 2006, our Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company to increase our authorized Common Stock from 75,000,000 shares to 350,000,000 shares of Common Stock par value $.001 and 50,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock par value $.001. The increase to the number of shares will require an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation. Our Board of Directors has directed that the increase to the shares of authorized Common Stock and Preferred Stock and the corresponding amendment and restatement of our Articles of Incorporation be submitted for approval by our stockholders. Our Board of Directors has determined that it would be in the best interests of the Company to amend its Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 75,000,000 shares to 350,000,000 shares of Common Stock par value $.001 and 50,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock par value $.001. Each additional share of Common Stock will have the same rights and privileges as each share of currently authorized Common Stock. Our Board of Directors believes that it is in the best interests of the Company to increase the number of authorized shares in order to give us greater flexibility in financing our business operations. The increase to the number of our authorized shares of common stock is also necessary as we currently do not have a sufficient number of authorized shares of our common stock available for our financing requirements. The issuance of additional shares of Common Stock will have the effect of diluting earnings per share, voting power and shareholdings of stockholders. It could also have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of the Company. The shares will be available for issuance by our Board of Directors for proper corporate purposes, including but not limited to, stock dividends, stock splits, acquisitions, financings and compensation plans. Current stockholders do not have pre-emptive rights to subscribe for, purchase or reserve any shares of our authorized capital stock. If the increase to our authorized shares of Common Stock is approved by our stockholders, we will file amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation in the form attached as Schedule "A" hereto with the Secretary of the State of Nevada as soon as practicable after stockholder approval is obtained. REQUIRED VOTE The affirmative approval of the holders of record on the Record Date of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock present at the Special Meeting, either in person or by proxy, is required to approve Proposal Number One. OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THE INCREASE TO THE AUTHORIZED NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK AND CREATION OF A NEW SERIES OF PREFERRED SHARES TOGETHER WTH A CORRESPONDING AMENDMENT TO OUR ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION. A COPY OF THE PROPOSED FIRST RESTATED AND AMENDED ARTICLES IS ATTACHED AS SCHEDULE "A" HERETO. PROPOSAL NUMBER TWO AMENDMENT TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO CHANGE NAME TO "UNIVERSAL ENERGY GROUP HOLDINGS, INC." Effective on August 25, 2006, our Board of Directors executed a written consent authorizing, and recommending that our stockholders approve a proposal to change our name from "Tree Top Industries, Inc." to "Universal Energy Group, Inc." or such other similar name as may be available. The First Restated and Amended Articles of Incorporation is attached hereto as Schedule "A". Our Board of Directors believes that the new name, Universal Energy Group , Inc., will more accurately reflect our current business activities in light of our Plan of Merger and Reorganization with Universal Energy Resources, Inc. and Grifco International, Inc. and will promote public recognition and more accurately reflect our operations and business focus. Effectiveness of the Name Change If approved by our stockholders, the change in our name will become effective upon the filing of the First Restated and Amended Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. We intend to file First Restated and Amended Articles of Incorporation as soon as practicable once stockholder approval is obtained. Additionally, if the name change is approved at the Meeting, we will promptly thereafter change our OTC Bulletin Board trading symbol. Our new OTC Bulletin Board trading symbol will be determined at the time the name change becomes effective. Changing the name of the Company will not have any effect on the rights of existing shareholders. The proposed name change will not affect the validity or transferability of currently outstanding stock certificates, and shareholders will be required to surrender for exchange any stock certificates they hold. No Appraisal Rights Under Nevada law, our stockholders are not entitled to appraisal rights with respect to a change in our name. Required Vote The affirmative approval of the holders of record on the Record Date of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock present at the Special Meeting, either in person or by proxy, is required to approve Proposal No. 2. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THE ADOPTION AND APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO OUR ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO GIVE EFFECT TO THE NAME CHANGE. A COPY OF THE PROPOSED AMENDED AND RESTATED ARTICLES IS ATTACHED AS SCHEDULE "A" HERETO.

Effectiveness of the AMEX Listing Process If approved by our stockholders, the change in listing from the OTC Bulletin Board to the AMEX will require us to submit detailed and comprehensive listing applications evidencing our ability to satisfy all listing criteria. There can be no assurance that we will be able to satisfy the AMEX listing requirements. AMEX Listing Standards In order to become listed on AMEX, we will have to satisfy Listing Standard 1 which requires us to (a) have pre-tax income of at least $750,000 in the latest fiscal year; (b) have a market value of public float of $3,000,000; (c) have a minimum share price of $3.00 for a period of at least 30 days prior to listing; (c) have a minimum market capitalization of at least $4,000,000; (d) have shareholder equity of at least $4,000,000; and (e) have a public shareholder to shares outstanding ratio of one of the following options: Option One: 800 public shareholders/500,000 common shares in the public float; Option Two: 400 public shareholders/1,000,000 common shares in the public float; or Option Three: 400 public shareholders/500,000 common shares in the public float (requires trading volume of 2,000 shares per day for the 6 months prior to listing); and (f) have satisfied such other requirements of the AMEX listing standards applicable at the time of our application. Note: Public shareholders and public float on AMEX do not include shareholders or shares held directly or indirectly by any officer, director, controlling shareholder or other concentrated (i.e. 10 percent or greater), affiliated or family holdings. AMEX Compliance If and when approved for listing on AMEX, there will a number of new corporate governance, reporting and other compliance rules which will govern the way the Company conducts business which we have summarized as follows: SEC and AMEX Filing Requirements A company having a security listed on the AMEX must make all required filings on a timely basis with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) (or other appropriate regulatory agency) and also file copies with the AMEX. With the exception of annual reports to shareholders, which must be filed with the AMEX in hard copy, a company will have satisfied this requirement if it electronically submits its filings to the SEC through EDGAR. Timely Notice of Corporate Actions The AMEX also requires timely notice and written confirmation of various corporate actions including record dates, dividends, proposed amendments to and certified copies of the issuer's certificate of incorporation, bylaws or similar organization documents and all material sent to shareholders or released to the press. Annual Report to Shareholders A company listed on the AMEX is required to publish and furnish to its shareholders (or to holders of any other listed security when its common stock is not listed on a national securities exchange) an annual report containing audited financial statements prepared in conformity with the requirements of the SEC. The company must disclose in its annual report to security holders, for the year covered by the report: (a) the number of unoptioned shares available at the beginning and at the close of the year for the granting of options under an option plan; and (b) any changes in the exercise price of outstanding options, through cancellation and reissuance or otherwise, except price changes resulting from the normal operation of antidilution provision of options. Three copies of the report must be filed with the AMEX. Annual reports must be sent to shareholders and filed with the Exchange at least ten days in advance of the annual meeting of shareholders, and not later than four months after the close of the last preceding fiscal year of the company. Timely Public Information Disclosure The AMEX considers that the conduct of a fair and orderly market requires every listed company to make available to the public information necessary for informed investing and to take reasonable steps to ensure that all who invest in its securities enjoy equal access to such information. Listed companies must fax press releases prior to issuance to the Exchange's Stock Watch Department. The following is a summary of the AMEX's disclosure policies: Immediate public disclosure of material information--A listed company is required to make immediate public disclosure of all material information concerning its affairs, except in unusual circumstances. Thorough public dissemination--A listed company is required to release material information to the public in a manner designed to obtain the widest possible public dissemination. Clarification or confirmation of rumors and reports--Whenever a listed company becomes aware of a rumor or report, true of false, that contains information that is likely to have, or has had, an effect on the trading in its securities, or would be likely to have a bearing on investment decisions, the company is required to publicly clarify the rumor or report as promptly as possible. Response to unusual market action--Whenever unusual market action takes place in a listed company's securities, the company is expected to make inquiry to determine whether rumors or other conditions requiring corrective action exist and, if so, to take whatever action is appropriate. Unwarranted promotional disclosure--A listed company should refrain from promotional disclosure activity which exceeds that necessary to enable the public to make informed investment decisions. Insider trading--Insiders should not trade on the basis of material information which is not known to the investing public. Moreover, insiders should refrain from trading, even after material information has been released to the press and other media, for a period sufficient to permit thorough public dissemination and evaluation of the information. Receipt of written Delisting Notice--A company is required to publicly disclose that it has received a written notice indicating that the Exchange has determined to remove the company's securities from listing (or unlisted trading) as a result of non-compliance with the continued listing requirements. The following is a summary of the AMEX's requirements for public announcements. Each press release or other public announcement should: o be factual, clear, and succinct; o contain sufficient quantitative information to allow investors to evaluate its relative importance to the activities of the company; o be balanced and fair; o avoid over technical language, and should be expressed to the extent possible in language comprehensible to the layman; o explain, if the consequences or effects of the information on the company's future prospects cannot be assessed, why this is so; and clarify and point out any reasonable alternatives where the public announcement undertakes to interpret information disclosed.
