Additionally, the company today announced that an unsolicited offer has been received by company management for oil and gas operations.

The offer made was shares of MVP HOLDINGS Inc. in the amount of PRTI's historical cost of $12.7 million. The PRTI board has called a 'special board meeting' to analyze this offer and is already conducting due diligence.
"The board shall make an announcement the week of March 10, 1997, as toward this matter and any other matters that are placed before the meeting and directors. Further, the operational cost of existing oil and gas operations are being analyzed as per their actual income potential, without 'HUGE' amounts of development cost therein attributable. Further, the location of these properties and management thereof on a local basis is a critical factor. Oil and gas development is high risk at best.
"Further, management is looking strongly at liquidity of said sales consideration and as to the benefits to the PRTI shareholders in book value and other considerations. Although, this offer is unsolicited, management has a very arduous meeting over the weekend. Further, pursuant to initial contract the past management of PRTI has post-closing events and matters to wind-up prior to full closures of the initial transition."
