oral information or opinions provided now or in the future to any interested party or its advisers. 
Cautionary Statement: Undiscovered Resources, OOIP and BOE 
Undiscovered Hydrocarbon-In-Place (equivalent to undiscovered resources) is that quantity of petroleum that is estimated, on a given date, to be contained in 
accumulations yet to be discovered. There is no certainty that any portion of the undiscovered resources will be discovered or that, if discovered, it will be economically 
viable or technically feasible to produce. Original-Oil-in-Place (equivalent to Discovered Petroleum Initially in Place), also known as ‘discovered resource’, is defined as 
that quantity of petroleum that is estimated, as of a given date, to be contained in known accumulations prior to production. The recoverable portion of OOIP includes 
production, reserves and contingent resources; the remainder is defined as unrecoverable. The terms “barrels of oil equivalent” or “boe” may be misleading, 
particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet (6 mcf) to one barrel (1 bbl) is based on an energy equivalency conversion method 
primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.

Executive Summary Sleeping Giant Gas Project 
Map Ref: USGS 
(1) Report dated 18 May 2010 by Mr. Walt King, registered Colorado Petroleum Engineer, for the benefit of 
White Eagle Exploration, Inc. the seller of the Sleeping Giant Gas Project to Strata-X.
4 
Elements Needed for a Commercial Biogenic Gas Accumulation 
Required Geologic Element Sleeping Giant Geologic Attributes 
Reservoir – Can be thought of as a storage 
tank and is measured in units of porosity or 
the amount of void space available to store 
natural gas 
Upper Cretaceous Niobrara Formation with 
porosity up to 40% (excellent storage 
capacity) 
Structure – Geologic surfaces that are higher 
than the surrounding areas and often act to 
accumulate hydrocarbons as they migrate 
upward. 
Well established structural high covers an 
area approximately 2500 sq. km. 
Seal – Geologic interval that is impermeable 
and allows the migrating hydrocarbons to be 
trapped in a reservoir. 
Ardmore bentonite - a well recognized zone 
that is know to trap hydrocarbons through the 
region. 
Hydrocarbon Source – Formation that 
originally generated the hydrocarbons. 
Sometimes this can be within or in 
juxtaposition to the reservoir and sometimes it 
is located some distance away. 
High Total Organic Carbon (TOC) within the 
Niobrara formation and allows for a very 
simple generation and migration pathway 
from the source to the reservoir. 
All geologic elements are present in Sleeping Giant
5 
Reservoir – Niobrara Formation and equivalents 
Production from similar aged 
formations in Saskatchewan and 
Alberta exceeds 70 Tcf(1) 
Production from Colorado, Kansas 
and Nebraska exceeds 1 Tcf from 
over 2,500 wells 
Upper Cretaceous formation 
similar to Niobrara extend over 
3,000 km in front of the Rockies 
(1) National Energy Board, 
Canada’s Energy Future 2013 – 
Energy Supply and Demand
6 
Reservoir – Niobrara Formation Chalk and Marlstones 
The Niobrara is a chalky 
marlstone that is made up 
calcium carbonate coccoliths 
formed from single cell algae 
At shallow depths these fossils 
remain uncrushed by the 
overburden and result in 
outstanding porosity up to 40% 
Chalk is similar to While Cliffs of Dover 
Microscopic view of coccoliths

Structure – Regional Mapping 
Utilizing over 150 data points 
combined with geophysical 
measurements delineate the 
2,500 km2 regional structure

Disclaimer Statement Forward-Looking Statements This summary contains certain statements which constitute forward-looking statements or information ("forward-looking statements"), including statements regarding the use of proceeds. These forward-looking statements are based on certain key expectations and assumptions, including assumptions regarding the general economic conditions in USA and globally, industry conditions in USA and the operations of the Company. These factors and assumptions are based upon currently available information and the forward-looking statements contained herein speak only as of the date hereof. Although the Company believes the expectations and assumptions reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, as of the date hereof, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking 2 statements as the Company can give no assurances that they will prove correct and because forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could influence actual results or events and cause actual results or events to differ materially from those stated, anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. These risks include, but are not limited to: uncertainties and other factors that are beyond the control of the Company; global economic conditions; risks associated with the oil and gas industry; commodity prices and exchange rate changes; operational risks associated with exploration, development and production operations; delays or changes in plans; specific risks associated with the ability to execute production sharing contracts, ability to meet work commitments, ability to meet the capital expenditures, estimated size of any seismic features and whether additional geosciences work will progress to defining drillable locations; risk associated with stock market volatility and the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those reflected in the forward-looking statements, except as required by securities laws. (Additional information identifying risks and uncertainties is contained in filings of the Company with Canadian securities regulators). Disclaimer This summary shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of the Company in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The securities to be offered have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of such Act or laws. In addition, the Company makes not representation or warranty, express or implied, in relation to, and no responsibility or liability is or will be accepted by the Company or its directors, officers, shareholders, partners, employees or advisers as to or in relation to the accuracy or completeness of the information, statements , opinions or matters (express or implied) arising out of, contained in or derived from this presentation or any omission from this presentation or of any other written or oral information or opinions provided now or in the future to any interested party or its advisers. Cautionary Statement: Undiscovered Resources, OOIP and BOE Undiscovered Hydrocarbon-In-Place (equivalent to undiscovered resources) is that quantity of petroleum that is estimated, on a given date, to be contained in accumulations yet to be discovered. There is no certainty that any portion of the undiscovered resources will be discovered or that, if discovered, it will be economically viable or technically feasible to produce. Original-Oil-in-Place (equivalent to Discovered Petroleum Initially in Place), also known as ‘discovered resource’, is defined as that quantity of petroleum that is estimated, as of a given date, to be contained in known accumulations prior to production. The recoverable portion of OOIP includes production, reserves and contingent resources; the remainder is defined as unrecoverable. The terms “barrels of oil equivalent” or “boe” may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet (6 mcf) to one barrel (1 bbl) is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.

  • 4. 4 Elements Needed for a Commercial Biogenic Gas Accumulation Required Geologic Element Sleeping Giant Geologic Attributes Reservoir – Can be thought of as a storage tank and is measured in units of porosity or the amount of void space available to store natural gas Upper Cretaceous Niobrara Formation with porosity up to 40% (excellent storage capacity) Structure – Geologic surfaces that are higher than the surrounding areas and often act to accumulate hydrocarbons as they migrate upward. Well established structural high covers an area approximately 2500 sq. km. Seal – Geologic interval that is impermeable and allows the migrating hydrocarbons to be trapped in a reservoir. Ardmore bentonite - a well recognized zone that is know to trap hydrocarbons through the region. Hydrocarbon Source – Formation that originally generated the hydrocarbons. Sometimes this can be within or in juxtaposition to the reservoir and sometimes it is located some distance away. High Total Organic Carbon (TOC) within the Niobrara formation and allows for a very simple generation and migration pathway from the source to the reservoir. All geologic elements are present in Sleeping Giant

  • 16. 16 Definitions In this document, the abbreviations set forth below have the following meanings: Oil and Natural Gas Bbl barrel Bbls barrels Mbbls thousand barrels MMbbls million barrels Mcf thousand standard cubic feet MMcf million standard cubic feet Bcf billion cubic feet TCF trillion cubic feet Other Hydrocarbon Index- measure of the hydrogen richness of the source rock, and when the kerogen type is known it can be used to estimate the thermal maturity of the rock. OOIP – Original Oil in Place. Permeability – the ability or measurement of a rock’s ability to transmit fluids. Porosity – percentage of pore volume or void space or that volume within rock that can contain fluids. Reservoir Rock – refers to a subsurface pool of hydrocarbons contained in porous or fractured rock formations. Rock Eval – is used to identify the type and maturity of organic matter and to detect petroleum potential in sediments. Source Rock - refers to carbon bearing rocks from which hydrocarbons have been generated or are capable of being generated. Tmax -highest temperature incurred by a Source Rock, generally higher temperatures equates to larger hydrocarbon generation. Total Organic Carbon (TOC) – amount of carbon in a geological formation, mainly Source Rocks.
