Baron: It appears that Mr. Burditt has kindly offered to forward to you for posting here on SI, documents concerning his involvement with Prudent Investor in previous proposed business transactions between the two parties. Could you ask Mr. Burditt to also include in that packet of documents necessary to answer the following questions: What exactly, (with specific line-by-line detail requested), did Oilex receive in value from Phoenix Reserves in exchange for the issuance of 8,685,378 (or is it 10,919,220, or is it 14,412,220) shares of Oilex stock? The 10SB12G filed by Oilex to the SEC on August 13, 1996 states the following: On October 31, 1994, the Company issued 10,919,220 shares of common stock in exchange for oil and gas leases in Jefferson County, Texas. This acquisition effectively transferred control of the Company to Phoenix Reserves, Inc. ("Phoenix"). This transaction made Phoenix the largest stockholder of Oilex with 63.1% and 64.6% ownership of the outstanding common stock at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The NV/10SB12G filed by Oilex to the SEC on August 5, 1997 states: During 1996, the Company purchased oil and gas properties and tangible equipment from Phoenix in exchange for 3,500,000 shares of Oilex common stock. Baron, I must admit that I am somewhat confused. Exactly how many shares of Oilex common stock have been transferred to Phoenix Reserves, owned 100% by "consultant" Allen L. Burditt, II? Is it 8,685,378? Is it 10,912,220? Is it 14,412,220? Is it some other number? If it anything other than 8,685,378 as reported in most recent SEC filings, could Mr. Burditt explain what has happened to the balance of the shares for which there appears to be no accounting? If they were in fact issued to Phoenix and then sold, were disclosures made of those sales either to the SEC (Form 144s) or direcly to investors by any other public release of information? I'm sure Mr. Burditt will be most willing to include documents to respond to these questions when he forwards to you the other documents concerning the Prudent Investor. Many thanks for your continuing effort at providing information to past, present and potential future shareholders. We appreciate your efforts at increasing the level of communication. Offie P.S. Perhaps Mr. Burditt could tell us if he was, either personally or as a consultant to Oilex, involved in any manner in the negotiation or implementation of any of the above share transfers from Oilex to Phoenix Reserves, a company 100% owned by Mr. Burditt.
