permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been
advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable.&#160; In the event that a claim
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.</p>

Item 6.
Indemnification
of Directors and Officers
.
Chapter 78 of the Nevada General Corporation Law ("NGCL") provides that
a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened
to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than
an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he
is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or
was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee
or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he is not liable pursuant to
NGCL Section 78.138 or acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and,
with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe his conduct was unlawful. NGCL Chapter 78 further provides that a
corporation similarly may indemnify any such person serving in any such
capacity who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the
corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of
2
the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys'
fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or
settlement of such action or suit if he is not liable pursuant to NGCL Section 78.138
or acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no
indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to
which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation
unless and only to the extent that the court or other court of competent
jurisdiction in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon
application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of
the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnity for such expenses which the court or other court of competent
jurisdiction shall deem proper.
Our Articles of Incorporation and By-laws provide that we  may indemnify its officers, directors, agents
and any other persons to the fullest extent permitted by the NGCL.
Additionally, under their employment agreements with Particle Drilling
Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("PDTI") (which agreements were
assumed by the company in connection with the acquisition of PDTI), Messrs. Hardisty,
Boswell and Tibbitts are entitled to indemnification in their capacity as
officers of the company to the fullest extent permitted by the NGCL.

Item 9.
Undertakings
The undersigned
registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
To
file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(a)
To
include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities
Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act");
(b)
To
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date
of this registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
change in the information set forth in this registration statement; and
(c)
To
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in this registration statement or any material change to
such information in this registration statement;
provided, however
,
that paragraphs (1)(a) and (1)(b) do not apply if the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13
or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by
reference in this registration statement.
(2)
That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each
such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(3)
To
remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the
securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.
(4)
That,
for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each
filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or
Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing
of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of
the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this registration
statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(5)
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been
advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable.  In the event that a claim
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
