Harken has a lot of excellent prospects already scheduled for drilling for the next two years, and a lot more that will be
scheduled for later years. While I have high expectations for the current 3, it is not impossible they could all 3 be dry holes. I
would hate to see Harken weakened by such a disappointment when there are so many other holes to be poked that also have so much
promise. We still have 93.75% of the interest in the wells being discussed, and the company will be able to continue their drilling
program even if these 3 well are a total disappointment. Of course, some of the stockholders might not be so strong, but cest la vie
monitaire!
