<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:14pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:12pt">On April 17, 2007, the Company completed the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement in which Southern Bay and PICA were merged with two subsidiaries of the Company (the &#147;Mergers&#148;). &nbsp;The Merger Agreement provided in substance for the mergers of the business of Southern Bay and Chandler, two independent oil and gas entities, into the two subsidiaries of the Company. &nbsp;To accomplish the merger with Chandler&#146;s business, Chandler transferred all but a small portion of its business and assets to PICA on April 17, 2007, and PICA was immediately merged into the Company&#146;s wholly owned subsidiary, Chandler Acquisition, LLC. &nbsp;Southern Bay was a private oil and gas exploration and production limited partnership with properties located primarily along the Texas and Louisiana Gulf Coast, operating out of Houston, Texas. &nbsp;Chandler was a private oil and gas exploration and production limited liability company, with properties located primarily in Colorado, Michigan and Utah, operating out of Denver, Colorado. &nbsp;</P>
<P style="margin:0pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:12pt"><BR></P>
<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:14pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:12pt">In the Mergers, the Company issued (a)&nbsp;8,263,000 shares of its common stock to the partners of Southern Bay in exchange for 100% of the partnership interests of Southern Bay, (b)&nbsp;1,931,000 shares of its common stock to the members of Chandler in exchange for 100% of the membership interests of PICA, and (c) 496,000 additional shares of common stock in exchange for certain working interests in a Chandler operated oil and gas project in northeastern Colorado (the &#147;Yuma Working Interests&#148;). &nbsp;All of the shares issued pursuant to the Mergers are &#147;restricted securities&#148; as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the &#147;Securities Act&#148;). &nbsp;See Item 3.02 below for further information about the issuance of these unregistered shares of common stock of the Company.</P>
<P style="margin:0pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:12pt"><BR></P>
<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:14pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:12pt">Prior to the Mergers, none of Southern Bay, Chandler, the Yuma Working Interests owners or their affiliates had any material relationship with the Company or any of its affiliates, or any director or officer of the Company, or any associate of any such director or officer.</P>
<P style="margin:0pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:12pt"><BR></P>
<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:14pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:12pt">The Mergers resulted in a change of control of the Company, as its board of directors and executive officers now consist mostly of persons affiliated with Southern Bay and Chandler. &nbsp;See Item 5.01 below for more information about the change of control of the Company.</P>
<P style="margin:0pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:12pt"><BR></P>
<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:14pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:12pt">Under generally accepted accounting principles, Southern Bay is deemed to have acquired the Company and PICA, and Southern Bay will account for the transactions using the purchase method of accounting for business combinations. Accordingly, upon consummation of the Mergers the historical financial statements presented for the Company will be those of Southern Bay, back to its inception in 2004, with the net assets of the Company and PICA treated as purchased upon closing. &nbsp;See Item 9.01 below regarding financial statements to be filed in respect of the Mergers.</P>

SECTION 2 – FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2.01 COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
On April 17, 2007, the Company completed the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement in which Southern Bay and PICA were merged with two subsidiaries of the Company (the "Mergers").  The Merger Agreement provided in substance for the mergers of the business of Southern Bay and Chandler, two independent oil and gas entities, into the two subsidiaries of the Company.  To accomplish the merger with Chandler's business, Chandler transferred all but a small portion of its business and assets to PICA on April 17, 2007, and PICA was immediately merged into the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Chandler Acquisition, LLC.  Southern Bay was a private oil and gas exploration and production limited partnership with properties located primarily along the Texas and Louisiana Gulf Coast, operating out of Houston, Texas.  Chandler was a private oil and gas exploration and production limited liability company, with properties located primarily in Colorado, Michigan and Utah, operating out of Denver, Colorado.
In the Mergers, the Company issued (a) 8,263,000 shares of its common stock to the partners of Southern Bay in exchange for 100% of the partnership interests of Southern Bay, (b) 1,931,000 shares of its common stock to the members of Chandler in exchange for 100% of the membership interests of PICA, and (c) 496,000 additional shares of common stock in exchange for certain working interests in a Chandler operated oil and gas project in northeastern Colorado (the "Yuma Working Interests").  All of the shares issued pursuant to the Mergers are "restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").  See Item 3.02 below for further information about the issuance of these unregistered shares of common stock of the Company.
Prior to the Mergers, none of Southern Bay, Chandler, the Yuma Working Interests owners or their affiliates had any material relationship with the Company or any of its affiliates, or any director or officer of the Company, or any associate of any such director or officer.
The Mergers resulted in a change of control of the Company, as its board of directors and executive officers now consist mostly of persons affiliated with Southern Bay and Chandler.  See Item 5.01 below for more information about the change of control of the Company.
Under generally accepted accounting principles, Southern Bay is deemed to have acquired the Company and PICA, and Southern Bay will account for the transactions using the purchase method of accounting for business combinations. Accordingly, upon consummation of the Mergers the historical financial statements presented for the Company will be those of Southern Bay, back to its inception in 2004, with the net assets of the Company and PICA treated as purchased upon closing.  See Item 9.01 below regarding financial statements to be filed in respect of the Mergers.
The post-Mergers structure of the Company is set forth below.  Except as noted below, each subsidiary set forth below is wholly owned by the entity directly connected to it, and thus, directly or indirectly, is wholly owned by the Company.

SECTION 3 – SECURITIES AND TRADING MARKETS
ITEM 3.01 NOTICE OF DELISTING OR FAILURE TO SATISFY A CONTINUED LISTING RULE OR STANDARD; TRANSFER OF LISTING
On April 18, 2007, the Company transferred its listing of its common stock from the NASDAQ Capital Market to the NASDAQ Global Market.  The common stock trades under the symbol "GEOI."
ITEM 3.02 UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
As indicated above, on April 17, 2007, pursuant to the Mergers, the Company issued 8,263,000 shares of common stock to the partners of Southern Bay and 1,931,000 shares of common stock to the members of Chandler.  Additionally, the Company issued 496,000 shares of common stock to the Yuma Working Interests owners.  These 10,690,000 shares of common stock are "restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.  Additionally, on April 17, 2007, the Company issued 5,000 shares of restricted common stock to each of Cathy Kruse, Connie Hval and Jeff Jennings, former executive officers of the Company who have continued as employees of the Company, as a bonus for their work in connection with the Mergers.  Also on April 17, 2007, the Company issued 66,208 shares of restricted common stock to two full-time employees upon their exercise of common stock options, one of whom is Jeffrey P. Vickers, former President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, who is now Vice President, Williston Basin Exploration and Development of the Company.
The issuance of all of the above shares was not registered under the Securities Act, and therefore the shares may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Company issued the shares in reliance on the statutory exemption from registration in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, and in reliance on Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. The common stock issued by the Company pursuant to the exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and in reliance on Rule 506 was based on the facts that (i) each purchaser had knowledge and experience in financial and business matters such that it was capable of evaluating the risks of the investment, and (ii) the Company obtained representations from each purchaser indicating that it was an "accredited investor," as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D, or was an employee or consultant of the Company, Southern Bay or Chandler, and each such person was able to fend for himself or herself financially, had extensive knowledge and experience in financial matters relating to oil and gas exploration companies, and was purchasing the common stock for investment only.
SECTION 5 – CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
ITEM 5.01 CHANGES IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT
On April 17, 2007, the closing of the Mergers, including the issuance of 10,690,000 shares of common stock of the Company to parties formerly not affiliated with the Company, resulted in a change of control of the Company.  These shares are approximately 73.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company.  The partners of Southern Bay exchanged all of their interests in Southern Bay for 8,263,000 shares of common stock of the Company.  The members of Chandler exchanged all of their interests in PICA for 1,931,000 shares of common stock of the Company.  The Yuma Working Interests owners exchanged their Yuma Working Interests for 496,000 shares of common stock of the Company.  Other than as occurred on April 17, 2007 pursuant to the Merger Agreement as disclosed in this Current Report, the Company is not aware of any agreements or understandings among Southern Bay, Chandler, the Yuma Working Interests owners or their affiliates or associates with respect to the election of directors of the Company or other matters relating to the Company.
In connection with the Mergers, the Company issued 5,022,018 shares of its common stock to Vlasic FAL, L.P. in exchange for its limited partnership interests in Southern Bay.  These shares constitute 34.4% of the outstanding shares of the common stock of the Company.  Vlasic FAL, L.P. is a limited partnership which is controlled by Frank A. Lodzinski and Michael A. Vlasic and therefore, both of these persons may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the shares held of record by Vlasic FAL, L.P.
