Section 1 - Registrant's Business and Operations

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

      Goldstrike Inc. (the "Company") is currently engaged in discussions with
Gran Tierra Energy Inc. ("Gran Tierra") regarding the possibility of a reverse
triangular merger (the "Merger") involving the two companies. At this stage, no
definitive terms have been agreed to, and neither party is currently bound to
proceed with the Merger.

      Gran Tierra is a private international oil and gas exploration and
production company, incorporated in Alberta, Canada in January 2005. Gran Tierra
identified and secured a commitment to acquire producing and non-producing
properties in Argentina, which acquisition closed on September 1, 2005, for a
cost of approximately $7,000,000 (the "Argentine Acquisition").

      To facilitate the Merger discussions, the Company determined to provide
financing to Gran Tierra to enable Gran Tierra to consummate the Argentine
Acquisition. The Company derived the funds necessary to provide this financing
from the proceeds of the initial closing of a private offering of its
securities, as is described in greater detail under "Item 3.02. Unregistered
Sales of Equity Securities," below. There may be additional closings of the
private offering, as discussed in Item 3.02; the proceeds derived from any
additional closings will be used to increase the Loan Commitment.

      The Company's financing (the "Bridge Loan") of the Argentine Acquisition
was evidenced by a loan agreement (the "Bridge Loan Agreement"), dated as of
September 1, 2005, pursuant to which the Company agreed to make loans to Gran
Tierra in an amount of up to the proceeds of its private offering (the "Loan
Commitment"). On the execution and delivery of the Loan Agreement, Gran Tierra
borrowed $6,665,198.30 under the Bridge Loan Agreement (the "Initial Loan
Amount"). The balance of the Loan Commitment may be drawn down by Gran Tierra,
in its discretion, subject to Gran Tierra's compliance with the conditions set
forth in the Bridge Loan Agreement.

      The Bridge Loan Agreement is evidenced by a promissory note (the "Bridge
Loan Note") issued by Gran Tierra to the Company in a principal amount equal to
the Loan Commitment. The Bridge Loan Note matures on December 30, 2005 (the
"Maturity Date"). The entire amount represented by the Loan Commitment bears
interest at the rate of 9% per annum, and is payable in full on the Maturity
Date. Gran Tierra will make monthly payments on the interest accrued commencing
30 days after the issuance of the Bridge Loan Note. If the Merger currently
under discussion between the parties is in fact consummated, the principal
amount and all accrued and unpaid interest due on the Bridge Loan Note will be
forgiven and all amounts will be deemed to be repaid in full effective as of the
Merger Closing Date.

      Gran Tierra's obligations related to the Bridge Financing are secured by a
security interest on all of the assets of Gran Tierra and its Argentine
subsidiary, Gran Tierra Energy Argentina S.A. ("GTA"), pursuant to a Security
Agreement entered into among Gran Tierra, GTA and the Company.
<PAGE>

      To further secure Gran Tierra's obligations, the Company has been pledged
such number of newly-issued shares of Gran Tierra Common Stock as represents 51%
of the total number of shares of Gran Tierra Common Stock issued and outstanding
on a fully-diluted basis (the "Escrowed Bridge Loan Shares"). The Escrowed
Bridge Loan Shares are being held in escrow pursuant to a Pledge and Escrow
Agreement.

      A default by Gran Tierra under the Bridge Loan Note, including but not
limited to the failure to close the Merger prior to the Maturity Date, will
cause an increase to the interest rate payable on the Loan Commitment from 9% to
15% per annum, which increased interest rate will continue until all defaults
are cured. In addition, if such default is not cured within the applicable time
period provided in the Bridge Loan Note or Security Agreement (generally, 75
days), the Company will be entitled to foreclose on its security interest in the
collateral provided for under the Security Agreement and to obtain delivery of
the Escrowed Bridge Loan Shares. If a default is cured prior to the expiration
of the applicable cure period, and provided further that the parties have
entered into a definitive Merger Agreement, then Gran Tierra will be required to
use its best efforts to consummate the Merger.

      The security interest in the collateral and the Escrowed Bridge Loan
Shares will be released on the earlier to occur of the payment in full of the
Bridge Loan Note or the closing of the Merger Closing Date (on which date the
Bridge Loan Note will be forgiven).

                   Section 3 - Securities and Trading Markets

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

      Effective September 1, 2005, the Company had the initial closing of a
private placement of units ("Units") of its securities. The offering was
conducted pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the
federal securities laws provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Securities Act") and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the
Securities Act. Each Unit consisted of one share of common stock ("Common
Stock") and one common stock purchase warrant ("Warrants"). Each Warrant
entitles its holder to purchase one-half a share of Common Stock for an exercise
price of $0.625 per one-half share, and is exercisable for a five year period
from the date of issuance. The Units were offered at a price of $0.80 per Unit.
The Company derived total proceeds of $8,337,916 from the sale of 10,422,395
Units in the initial closing. The Units were offered and sold only to
"accredited investors," as that term is defined by Rule 501 of Regulation D, and
to persons who were neither resident in, nor citizens of, the United States.

         The offering will continue until the earlier of September 30, 2005 or
the date on which a maximum of 12,000,000 Units have been sold.
<PAGE>

         The proceeds derived from the initial closing of the offering were used
to fund the Bridge Loan to Gran Tierra, as described in "Item 1.01. Entry into a
Material Definitive Agreement," above.
