Strategic Positioning

Upon closing of this transaction, Bowood becomes a high impact light oil exploration focused junior company with the dominant high working interest, operated position in the southern Alberta Bakken play, an exploration play that has attracted significant industry activity in recent years. The Company has 155,974 net acres of undeveloped land in the over-pressured oil window in the Alberta Bakken fairway, including a contiguous 60,512 net acre block on the Blood Tribe Reserve.
