OUTSTANDING SHARES AND VOTING RIGHTS
     As of November 5, 2007, the date of action by the Majority Stockholders (and as of the date of this Information Statement), the Company’s authorized capitalization consists of 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of which 986,939 shares are issued and outstanding, and 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.10 per share, of which 100,000 shares have been designated as the Series B Preferred Stock, at least 589* shares of which are issued and outstanding. The CUSIP number of the Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, is 1261Y-10-06.
     Each share of Common Stock entitles its holder to one vote on each matter submitted to the stockholders. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is entitled to one vote per share voting together with the holders of any other class of stock entitled to vote without regard to class on all matters to be voted on by stockholders of the Company, and such shares of stock are to be counted in determining the total outstanding shares to constitute a quorum at any meeting of stockholders. The
 
*   The Company has reported 615 shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding in its Proxy Statement dated October 19, 2006 and in its Information Statement dated February 16, 2007, but such number may be an error; 589 shares have been issued and are outstanding and it may be that up to an additional 26 shares should have been issued as dividends to six individuals.

holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote separately as a class to effectuate or validate any matters.
     On November 5, 2007, the Majority Stockholders by written consent in lieu of a meeting, voted 576,387 shares of Common Stock (approximately 58% of the class) in favor of the approval and ratification of the proposed issuance of 950,000 new shares of Common Stock to URC Energy LLC.
     Under Nevada law, any dissenting stockholder is not entitled to appraisal rights with respect to the approval and ratification of the issuance of 950,000 new shares of Common Stock to URC Energy LLC, and the Company will not independently provide stockholders with any such right.
ISSUANCE OF 950,000 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
     The Company’s Common Stock is listed and traded on the American Stock Exchange LLC under the symbol “GBR.” Prior to the actual issuance of certificates representing 950,000 shares of Common Stock, the potential issuance must be approved by the stockholders in accordance with Sections 705 and 712 of the American Stock Exchange (“AMEX”) Company Guide in order for the AMEX to approve an application to list additional shares to be issued. Section 712 of the AMEX Company Guide requires stockholder approval as a prerequisite to approval of applications to list additional shares to be issued when the present or potential issuance of Common Stock (or securities convertible into Common Stock) could result in an increase in outstanding common shares of 20% or more. The Company currently has outstanding 986,939 shares of Common Stock and the issuance of 950,000 shares is greater than 20% of the currently outstanding number of shares of Common Stock.
     Under Nevada law, the Board of Directors has the authority to issue shares of Common Stock of the Company in such amounts and for such consideration as the Board of Directors may deem appropriate under Section 78.211 of the Nevada General Corporation Law. The Board of Directors has already approved the proposed issuance as well as the execution by the Company of the Securities Purchase Agreement effective as of October 19, 2007* (the “Purchase Agreement”) and recommended to the stockholders such actions. The stockholders listed under the caption “Security Ownership of Principal Stockholders and Management” have so approved such actions by written consent. By virtue of the consent of the Majority Stockholders and the requirements of the AMEX Company Guide, this Information Statement has been prepared for distribution to all stockholders of the Company. The actual issuance of share certificates representing the 950,000 shares of Common Stock to be issued to URC Energy LLC in exchange for the consideration of $3 per share (i.e. $2,850,000 cash) will not be effectuated until at least twenty (20) calendar days after the date
 
*   The Purchase Agreement is effective for accounting purposes (i.e. although not executed at that date, it may be treated for accounting purposes as though it was signed on that date) as of October 19, 2007, the date the Company received the subscription for the Shares; the Purchase Agreement was actually executed by the parties on November 16, 2007, following the approval by consent of the holders of 58% of the Common Stock.

     Effective as of October 19, 2007, the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement with URC Energy LLC, a Nevada limited liability company covering the purchase by URC Energy LLC of 950,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company at a price of $3 per share (a total of $2,850,000).
Rights of Existing Holders; Dilution
     The Shares of the Common Stock of the Company to be issued to URC Energy LLC are current shares of Common Stock without modification, and no difference will exist between the currently outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company and the 950,000 shares to be issued. Each such share of Common Stock will continue to be subject only to one vote per share. The current shares of Common Stock are presently listed on the AMEX. The Company intends to apply for additional listing and registration on such Exchange of the 950,000 shares of Common Stock to be issued.
     Although the rights of current holders of shares of Common Stock of the Company will not change after the issuance of 950,000 shares of Common Stock to URC Energy LLC, such shares will ultimately comprise 49% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock which will obviously dilute all existing stockholders** and reduce the voting power of those current stockholders. The issuance of such 950,000 shares of Common Stock to URC Energy LLC may also have the following effects upon current stockholders and/or the value of the shares of Common Stock currently outstanding:
    Members of the Board of Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast in person or by proxy in the election of directors. With one stockholder and its affiliates holding approximately 69.4% of the issued and outstanding shares and votes, such stockholder and its affiliates will be able to elect all of the directors of the Company. As affiliates of that stockholder will continue to hold an additional 20.4% post 950,000 shares issuance, the total of that 20.4% and 49% will be 69.4% which will be able to elect all of the directors of the Company.
 
    Although URC Energy LLC, as the holder of 950,000 shares of Common Stock will be restricted in its ability to resell shares for a period of time, any sales privately of substantial amounts of our Common Stock or in the public market or a perception that such sales may occur in the future may create a perception in the market place which causes the market price of the Common Stock to decline.
 
    The sale and issuance of 950,000 of Common Stock to a single holder may impair the Company’s ability to raise capital through the sale of additional Common or Preferred Stock in the future.
 
**   Including dilution of shares held by these entities which total 395,580 shares or 40.11% pre issuance of the 950,000 shares or 20.4% post issuance. See “Information about URC Energy LLC and its affiliates.”

    Although the Company’s Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation, as amended, currently contain provisions which could have the effect of discouraging certain stockholder actions or opposition to candidates selected by the Board of Directors or provide incumbent management a greater opportunity to oppose stockholder nominees or hostile actions by stockholders or others, the existence of a block of Common Stock representing an aggregate of approximately 49% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock may well have a chilling effect upon persons wishing to propose a “takeover” of the Company without the consent and support of that holder of 49% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock.
 
    The existence of what may be perceived as a “control” block of Common Stock of the Company may have some effect upon any third parties desires to purchase or sell the Company’s Common Stock.
 
    With one stockholder holding approximately 49% and its affiliates holding an additional 20.4% of the issued and outstanding shares and votes, those holders of a combined 69.4% of the votes will be able to cause the approval of any matter submitted to the stockholders which requires approval of more than a majority but less than 70% of the votes without the votes of any other stockholders.

     HKS Investment Corporation acquired its current stock ownership of 108,994 shares from Victor Lund, a director of the Company. HKS Investment Corporation filed an original statement on Schedule 13D dated January 9, 2006 listing a group of individuals as stockholders and officers. Reference is made to such original statement on Schedule 13D dated January 9, 2006 for summary of the information contained therein. Mr. Lund originally became a director of the Company when the Company acquired certain nursing homes/retirement community operations from Mr. Lund. HKS Investment Corporation and its stockholders are not affiliated with Gene E. Phillips or TFI or JRGIC or IHPI.
     While Mr. Phillips and each of the officers and directors of the Company have had contact with each other in the past, there are no arrangements or understandings existing among the directors and officers of the Company on the one hand and Mr. Phillips, BCM, IHPI, TFI or JRGIC. No arrangements or understandings existed in the past among the directors and officers of the Company on the one hand and Mr. Phillips, BCM, IHPI, TFI or JRGIC except that TFI holds a Stock Option Agreement presently exercisable covering 40,000 shares of Common Stock dated December 16, 2003 at an exercise price of $2.60 per share, exercisable until December 15, 2008. Also, pursuant to a Recission Agreement dated June 1, 2006 among the Company and four individuals including Mr. Phillips, the Company received $1,500,000 as a “break up fee” from and through Syntek West, Inc. (a Nevada corporation owned by Mr. Phillips and the parent of URC Energy LLC). The Recission Agreement rescinded ab initio a transaction entered into on October 12, 2004 involving

the acquisition for preferred stock by the Company of two US entities which indirectly owned a Bulgarian telecommunications and cable tv entity.
Consideration for the Purchase of Shares
     The Purchase Price of $3 per share under the Purchase Agreement was established by the Board of Directors of the Company through negotiation with representatives of the Purchaser. The $3 per share price is the same price offered by the Company for sizable purchases of its Common Stock (a minimum of 333,333 shares) in a private placement which has not yet reached the minimum subscription level. During the period from January 2007 through November 5, 2007, the Company’s Common Stock traded in a range of $3.52 per share on January 2, 2007 to a high of $6.50 per share on April 16, 2007 to a low of $1.95 per share on November 5, 2007 to a further low of $1.15 on January 8, 2008. The Company’s Common Stock is presently held by approximately 460 holders of records. The Company does not have an explanation for the volatility of the price range of the Company’s Common Stock.
Use of Proceeds
     During 2006, the Company disposed of its subsidiaries then engaged in the oil and natural gas lease and operation business. The Company advised in its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 that it seeks to “re-enter” the oil and natural gas industry through an acquisition of interest in a significant block of oil and natural gas leases in Cleburne County, Arkansas covering several net acres, which the Company seeks to develop using various financing sources. The oil and natural gas leases cover properties located in the Fayetteville Shale area of the state of Arkansas.
     Since the fall of 2006, the Company and its management have continued to explore alternatives to establish and/or acquire new business operations for the Company. Although management continues to explore other possible transactions and lines of business, management presently intends to re-enter the oil and natural gas industry through the acquisition and development of interests in the Fayetteville Shale in Arkansas. The Company originally sought to acquire a significant block of leasehold interest in Cleburne County, Arkansas covering an excess of 10,000 net acres in exchange for the issuance of certain shares of Common Stock, but such transaction did not come to fruition in that form. In late November 2007, the Company through a subsidiary, entered into an arrangement to acquire certain leasehold interests covering 1,712 net acres of land in four separate sections of land in Cleburne County, Arkansas through the issuance of a promissory note. Through such arrangement the Company also obtained two separate options to acquire additional leasehold acreage through August 15, 2008 under a similar arrangement. Assignments of the interests to a subsidiary of the Company were made and filed in the County records through January 15, 2008.
     The Company expects to engage in exploration development activities on such leasehold interests during 2008 in a cost efficient manner seeking to develop commercially productive wells

and establish proven reserves. A portion of the net proceeds from the sale and issuance of the 950,000 shares of Common Stock to URC Energy LLC may be available to pay for seismic studies and other developmental costs in preparation for drilling and/or actual drilling of development wells on such acreage. The Company may also use a portion of such proceeds to solidify or consolidate its position in various sections of land in the focus area in order to be the controlling holder of more than one half of the acreage in such sections (the controlling holder of more than one half of the acreage in a section is entitled under various Arkansas regulations to be the operator of a well or wells drilled on such acreage and certain other benefits). However, no definitive determination has been made concerning the expenditures or use of the proceeds of $2,850,000 from the sale of Common Stock. At such time as same is received in exchange for issuance of certificates representing such 950,000 shares (which will not occur until after this Information Statement has been distributed to stockholders and a period of some 21 days shall have elapsed), the expectation of the Company is to invest such proceeds and hold same as working capital for the Company.
Change of Control
     At the time of issuance of such 950,000 shares of Common Stock to URC Energy LLC, a “deemed” change of control will occur. See the table on page 8 for information about the resulting percentage ownership of Common Stock of the Company by various individuals and groups. At the time of its issuance of the 950,000 shares of Common Stock to URC Energy LLC, Gene E. Phillips and a group consisting of Mr. Phillips, TFI, JRG and IHPI will control, in the aggregate, approximately 69% of the Common Stock of the Company.
AMEX Status
     In August 2006 the AMEX advised the Company that it was not then in compliance with Section 1003(a)(i) of the Company Guide with stockholders equity of less than $2,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in two out of its three most recent fiscal years; Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Company Guide with shareholders equity of less than $4,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three out of its four more fiscal years. In response to that August 2006 notice, the Company submitted a Plan of Compliance on September 22, 2006 which was accepted by the AMEX which granted the Company an extension until December 31, 2007 to regain compliance with the continued listing standards.
     On October 17, 2007, the Company received a staff determination notice confirming the intent of the AMEX staff to seek to strike the Company’s Common Stock from the exchange through a delisting procedure. Such notice advised that in the opinion of the staff of the AMEX “the Company had failed to deliver on a number of milestones that were in the Company’s Plan of Compliance” and had not demonstrated an ability to regain compliance by December 31, 2007. The AMEX staff notice specified failures by the Company to deliver the following “milestones” in the Plan of Compliance [Company’s position follows each item in brackets]:
    Completion of an equity raise by December 31, 2006 to increase the Company’s equity to $2,000,000 [stockholder equity at December 31, 2006 was $2,079,000].

    Providing no assurances that the Company will be able to secure the necessary investments to complete the acquisition of mineral rights by the end of the Plan Period [proposed acquisition of mineral rights was financed].
 
    Company has failed to provide financial projections for the duration of the Plan Period to the AMEX and made no representations that it expects to regain compliance by reporting net income for the fiscal year 2007 and/or shareholders equity of $4,000,000 at December 31, 2007 [the $2,850,000 to be received by the Company from URC Energy will put the stockholder’s equity of the Company above $4,000,000].
The Company appealed that decision and was to have an opportunity to present its position at a hearing before a Listing Qualifications Panel in late November 2007. The Company submitted to the AMEX staff certain information as part of the appeal process in the form of a letter brief of the Company’s response to the staff notice involving the Company’s accomplishments under the Plan of Compliance. Following that submission, on November 20, 2007, the Hearings Administrator of the AMEX advised the Company that the scheduled hearing was postponed for at least 30 days. On December 20, 2007, the Company was orally notified that such hearing is further postponed to a date in January or February to be mutually agreed upon by the AMEX and the Company. No further action is expected by the AMEX pending that hearing.
     There can be no assurances given that the AMEX will continue the current listing of the Company’s Common Stock or that the AMEX will accept an additional listing application covering the 950,000 shares to be sold to URC Energy LLC.
