On November 1, 2018, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (“PSA”) with Crossroads Petroleum L.L.C. and Houston Gulf Energy (“HGE”) to sell 100% working interest in the NOACK field assets located in Milam County, Texas (the “NOACK Assets”). HGE agreed to pay $375,000 but defaulted on payment after making payments of $255,000, leaving a $120,000 receivable balance. The receivable balance was written off in April 2019. Consequently, the $255,000 was recognized as a gain on sale of assets. See Note 13 – Subsequent Events for discussion about the subsequent “re-sale” of the NOACK property.
